The caste are working like professionals, the choruses like so many Tiller girls and the black-face men will make you laugh till your sides ache. The young men in the revue will give real ’song and dance offerings. Taking all this into consideration the ''Oddities of 1929," outside of being a gigantic re vue. will have musical number* that will please you and dancing that will thrill you, and the specialties will hold you spellbound.

It is a graduation day. and joy and merriment reigns. The Dean enters—yes, Jack Climie himself. All we can say is, be prepared. Jack has real talent and plays a prominent part in the revue, thus assuring you of many laughs with his irresistible gaiety. "Duckey" Rodgers, playing the part of "Misery," need* no introduction, be ing in many amateur performances in the town. Duckey has a way all hi* own, and in the skit, "Mr*. Snobleigh Entertain*,"—well, 'nuf said. Duckie and Jack certainly make a real comedy team. Miss Marie Mabee. one of the most charming young ladies of the town, play* the part of Mary Loa Her part is handled very gracefully, and Mane has all the qualities of a leading lady. Her vocal numbers, "Mighty Lak a Rose." and “Though You Threw Me Down." are some of the bright spot* of the revue. Miss Lillian Roger*, playing Mr*. Snobleigh. ha* a very difficult part to handle and plays it with amazing ease. Miss Rogers handled a similar role last year with great success.Mr. S. Woodward, practically a new- comer to Tillsonburg, play* the role of Murphy. He will also make hi* debut on Tuesday evening next. Mri Wood ward possesses a very rich tenor voice and hi* musical offering. “King for a Day." will be outstanding.

Taking all this consideration the “Oddities of Brownsville Public Library The library board of Brownsville are pleased to report the success of their efforts to interest the commun ity in the financial condition of our public library. At a box social held in the town hall on Wednesday evening of last week a'fair number of our citizens were present and enjoyed a good program and social evening. Mr. R- A. Baxter, who has keen actively associated with the libraiy since its beginning here, very efficiently acted as chairman. In his address he defin itely outlined the two alternatives with which the board is faced at their annual meeting in January. Owing to the increase in the price of books dur ing the last few vears, there must either be a marked increase in sub scription fee*, or the library must be conducted on a new system. Having a library board appointed by the pub lic school trustee*. we can have a free library,,supported by direct taxation of 50 cents per capita in the school section. All who are interested in the future of our library are urged to at tend the regularly advertised annual meeting and decide on the better method for the future. Following the chairman’s remarks, a splendid program was provided by Miss Ellis and Miss Trestain of TiU- sonburg. Mrs. Barnhardt. Mr*. Mc Curdy. Dr. McLeod and Mr. Gay. also the Brownsville orchestra. Mr. A. M. Rutherford kindly acted as auctioneer of the boxes and disposed of them very creditably. A prize was given for the best decorated box and was awarded to Mrs. N. W. Corbett by the judges, Misses Ellis and Trestain. Several public spirited citizens who did not attend, have since made con tributions bringing the receipts up $50.85. The Municipal Nominations Mayor R. E. We.ton and Coun.

Rayne, was appointed chairman for the public meeting which follow ed. and he immediately invited theme tiring councilllors and the nominee* to take seat* on the platform. Mayor Weston was the first speaker. After thanking his mover and seconder he spoke briefly of the work of the council. They had started with a balance of $3497.00 from last year, and notwithstanding a rate reduction of three mills, and some heavy expendi ture* it was estimated that they would about break even at the end of the year. The county rate has been much higher than the previous year, and he was of the opinion that the town was not getting a fair deal from the county. The road system was not in a satisfactory condition, and it had been almost impossible to get anything done to them. He mentioned particu larly the road to the M.GR. station, and also the Vienna hill north of the Wabash station. The latter was in particularly bad shape, and it, was not until persistent urging and telephone calls that some temporary repairs were made. He felt that a 36 mill rate was too low and expressed the opinion that 38 mills would be about the normal rate. He advised the coming council to go slowly in road building for some years to come, only attempt ing a small portion each year, and by so doing they would be able to keep (Northway Special Silk Hosiery Sale FOR A GOOD MEAL OR LUNCH ICE CREAM BRICK AND ARCTIC PIE Properly prepared and promptly served, call at The Tillsonburg Cafe H.

The expense* in connection with waterworks negotiation* amounted to something over $6.00000. but he pointed out the fact that had the Till- sonburg Waterworks Co. retained the system, and put in force a 50% in crease it would have cost the con sumers about $6,000.00 which would offset the cost of securing the system for the town. The debentures had [been all sold locally, which meant a saving to the town of about $4,000.00, and he thought the council was de serving of commendation for the man ner in which the business had been carried out. Speaking of hi* jiominat tion he said that some time ago he had been approached by influential citizen* who had urged him to become a candi date for re-election on the ground that _____.1______‘ - r with the waterworks situation, and would be in a jH.sition to aid very materially in working out the detail* m connection with ment sion.

The letter published by E. V. Tillson had caused consternation in the coun cil and it was left to him to take up the cudgel* in behalf of the town. He was desirous of remaining mayor for another year, and if the citizens thought that hi* work of the past two year* had been of value to the town, and if they believed that he was the best man filled to fill the posi tion, he asked for their support. If, on the other hand they thought that hi* opponent was the one best quali fied lor the position, he advised them to vote apainst him. and there would be no hard feelings over the result of the vole. In other word* he urged the ratepayers to put the best man in the mayor* chair. He urged an open and above-board campaign. If there were any questions to straighten out he maintained that the public plat form was the proper place to do it. He was absolutely opposed to the hole and corner method of conducting the campaign. He had been informed that the question of employing two police men for the town was being made an issue. Personally he wa* of the opin ion it wa* too large a town to get tern upon A sneak thief entered the residence of Harry Brady. Bidwell street north, during the temporary absence of the family last Friday night, ingress being made through one of the upstair windows. Evidence was shown that he had first tried the front and back doors on the lower floor. The pace was thoroughly ransacked, the thief only securing some ten or twelve dol lar* for hi* pain*. The hard cash was evidently all that he wanted, as noth ing else was taken. A considerably larger sum of money, which had been concealed in another, part oi the house, however, was not discovered by the robber. Chief Carter was immedately notified when the theft was discovered, and in a very few minute* both he and Constable Reynolds were on the scene. No clue was left behind, but the foot step* of the scoundrel were traced, « the light snow that had fallen that night, from the rear of the house to the sidewalk, when further trace wa* lost. It is hoped that the guilty party will soon be unearthed and given the punishment that he so richly deserve*. M.

Being an emulsion of purified petroleum oil, ANGIER’S keeps the bowels regular and in a healthy condition, while the hypophosphites of lime and soda —combined in the emulsion— are beneficial in building up the system and in developing sturdy children. ANGIER’S EMULSION is also a safeguard against the chest complications associated with heavy colds, measles, scarlet fever and grippe. It loosens the phlegm, relieves the soreness of throat and chest, and its cleans ing action removes body impuri ties thus hastening the child's recovery.

One of the most enjoyable and suc cessful concerts of the season was that given by St. Pauls United Church choir in the auditorium of the church last Friday evening. The place was al most completely filled, and the pro gram was a most commendable one throughout, reflecting credit both on the director and organist. Miss Helen Trestain, and her excellent band of singers. Mr. Albert E.

Matt. 6:7:*‘But when ye pray. u*c not vain repetitions, as the heathen do; for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.” If the use of formal repetitions in prayer i* a sign of heathenism, then there are a lot of heathen in Christian lands. Potency in prayer is not indicated by fluent speech and choice language, but by earnest desire. It is not the length of the prayer but the intensity that count*. However admirable prayer* written by others may be, the prayer that will do the most good is the prayer however imperfectly phrased, that rise* spontaneously from the conscious need of the soul The cry of the Publican will always count for more with God than the pious and well-rounded periods of the Pharisee. Henry Drum mond wrote of a little girl who once knelt down at night and said: “Dear God, 1 am very tired. Good night. Amen." This is very like the prayer sometimse offered by one of the best- known evangelists of to-day, Gipsy Smith, who, utterly done out at the end of a strenuous meeting, prayed: "Heavenly Father, I'm too tired to talk to Thee much to-night, but wc are on the same term* of friendship. Amen." After all. the chief thing is to be on speaking terms with our Heavenly Father, and to want to keep up the friendship. HYMN "Behold u*. Lord, a little space From daily tasks set free. And met within Thy holy place To rest awhile with Thee. Work shall be prayer, if all be wrought A* Thou would* t have it done; And prayer by Thee inipired taught. Itself with work be one." and The Municipal Nominations Facts About Waterworks Continued from page one To the citizen* of Tillionburg: A* there »ccm* to be a deliberate at tempt to misrepresent certain features of the waterworks since the town ob tained control. I have been requested to state clearly exactly what has been done. By the term* of the by-law by which the waterworks was taken over by the town, the plant is under the control of the Public Utilities Commis sion who are alone-responsible for the maintenance and operation of the waterworks. Mr. Stanley Buckrcll, as the superintendent under the commis sion, occupies the same position with regard to the waterworks as he docs to the hydro, and is responsible for the actual operation of both. All the em ployees are under hi* control and he is responsible under the commission for the buying of all supplies, etc. that are required for both the waterworks and the hydro. Mr. Bert Barnard has been retained by the commission in the same capacity that he was employed by the Tillsonburg Waterworks Co., that is. to operate the pump, maintain the line*, etc. He is working under the superintendent of the Public Utilities Commission. Mr. Buckrell. By a res olution of the commission, he was em ployed at a salary of $35 a week and in case either party was dissatisfied, hi* service* were to be discontinued by one month's notice. Mr Barnard was given to understand that as long as he per formed hi* work satisfactorily and ef ficiently. he was to be retained by the commission for at least a year. While he was employed by the Tillsonburg Waterworks Co., he was paid $30.00 a week and he was assured $1800 a year that it was (imply a transfer of that amount from the special account to the Public Utilities Commission, as pro vided by the bylaw. Strange to say, no objection was made to the cheque that had been issued in the same way for $100,000 Another point that was being used against him was that he had voted against the O.T.A. He admitted that charge and had made no secret of it. He voted, as he be lieved. in the best interests of the Community as a whole. With refer ence to the establishing of a liquor store in Tillsonburg. that was a mat ter cutside of the jurisdiction of the council. He was opposed to the cir culation of a petition atkmg the coun cil to use their influence for such an institution, and further he was op posed to the establishing of a liquor store in Tillsonburg. Mayor Weston concluded remarks by again thanking the ratepayer* for the support they had given him in the past, and solicit ing a continuance of that support if they believed that hi* services had been of value to the town, and that he was the man best qualified to fill the posi tion of mayor for the year 1929. D. W. White, reeve, and chairman of the finance committee was next called upon. After thanking the rate payers for their past support, and hi* mover and seconder for nominating him for the position of mayor, he assured his hearers that hi* remark* would be brief. The mayor had re- . * - 7--------------rferred to the increased county rate. ,hc wa* «’*'««d b>' ‘he and he said this was caused by a defi- ----------------------- « *----------- cit of $50,000, which none of the coun- cillors seemed to know anything about. ■ They had accepted the situation, and ~ which MAYOR 1929 Dr. Weston To the Electors Having accepted the nomi nations for the office of mayor of the town, I respect fully solicit your support at the polls on Monday next. Economy, consistent with progress, is my motto. I will make an earnest effort to secure more industries for our town, and a further re duction in taxation.

There had been a great ' complaint regarding tbc work of the county road commissioners, and he thought that a re-organization would take place next year, when an im provement might be looked for. Till son Avenue, he said was pretty good except at the side*. This, along with the Vienna hill would be given atten tion as soon as posible. In conclusion he said that he was not a candidate for any |>o*ition this year. 11. S. Eyre, deputy-reeve and chair man of the street* and bridges com mittee gave a brief review of the work of his committtec. which had been economically carried out, and a smaller amount than formerly expended on permanent improvements. He was a candidate for the reeveship, and would appreciate the support of the ratepayers. deal of company. which amount is approxi mately $35 a week. These are the fact* and any attempts to misrepresent the situation or to criticize what haf been done, are not going to help the Public Utilities Commission to operate the waterworks successfully or efficiently.

After expressing his sincere thanks for past support, he offered congratulations to the council for their excellent work of the past year. The waterworks question had been disposed of and the Com mission will now have to bear the brunt of the work in connection with the management of that department ol the business. He gave some interest ing statistics regarding the growth and development ol the hydro-electric system showing the enormous stride* it had made in Tillsonburg during the years of its existence.

The interview with Bertie was an exciting one; the eager lover could with difficulty be restrained from seek ing Florrie** presence, and informing her of all htat he had just heard. “Il would be useless, and cruel," said Amy earnestly. “She is loo just to believe, on anything but actual proof, and you would put him on his guard and prevent our obtaining it. Pray persuade Captain Clare of this. Dr. Searle. The wisest way will be for Helen to go to Florence, and take with her her marriage certificate." Bertie and Ned Searle looked at each other in despair; they had told her nothing of Helen's strange condi tion as yet, and she did not know how difficult of execution her sensible and simple suggestion might prove. “Wouldn t that be the best and easi est way?" she asked, in surprise at their evident hesitation. Then Bertie hurriedly explained. He told her how Helen had forgotten the past two years; that her mind was a olank m all that concerned her mar- % ^'CLOCKS’ riage. “She has no marriage certificate.- he said despairingly, “nor doc* she re member that she ever had a husband or a child. That cursed villain has robbed her of her memory of her peace; only by the loss of one can she regain the .other. Searle, here, thinks that a sudden shock of recognition may restore her, but I dread to recall her to the recollection of her suffer ings and her wrongs, poor, poor Hel- ^AeTefeoiione T his young lady’s job is to -ciock- thc telephone service. She sits there with her decimeter stop watch and measures to tenths of a second the time taken to complete a call. Other "dockers” record the errors made, the speed with which "trouble" is re paired, all the items of telephone efficiency. If speed and efficiency are not constantly on the climb these are the people who know it first and then there is a grand hunt to find out what's gone wrong. It is a good game. It gets results. That Is why your telephone serves you better this year than it did last year, and next year will serve you better than now. That is why it has contribut ed its share to Canadian progress. FOR EXAMPLE, seven years ago the aver age intcp-al from the time you lifted your telephone receiver until the operator answered was 5.1 seconds. Today the docker finds the interval cut to 37 seconds. Tomorrow it wi|l be still less. Seven years ago there were 95 slow calls in every 1,000—a slow call being one in which the operator takes ten seconds or more to answer. Today there are only 33 in every thousand. The number of errors of all kinds has been reduced from 40 in every 1,000 calls to 16, which is over ninety-eight per cent perfect FIVE YEARS AGO you ran 27 chances in every 1,000 calls of getting the wrong num ber. That is down now to 13 chances in 1,000, or nearly 99 times out of the 100 right. There are only two chances in a thousand now that you will be cut off. There were five chances in a thousand, five years ago. There used to be eight times in a thousand calls when you would break in on somebody else’s conversation. Now there are only two such double connections per thousand. THERE ARE "CLOCKERS" at work in other directions too and here are some of the things they have recorded. The time taken to repair "trouble” on a line now has been cut to one-third of the time taken five years ago. The time taken to install a new telephone used to be three hours and forty-five minutes. It has been cut now to one hour and forty-five min utes. That means something in hours saved, with 139,000 telephones installed in Ontario and Quebec this year. PRETTY GOOD results. But the docker isn’t satisfied. Nobody in the telephone business is ever satisfied with today’s mark. The system to- morrow must always be better fir to keep pace with the Canada of tomorrow.

"You cannot hesitate,” she said. “It is terrible for Helen, but not even for her sake can you suffer Florrie to marry Helen’s husband and would-be murderer I" "Right!" cried Ned Searle, earnestly. “She always is right," he added, in an undertone. “By long odds the most sensible, admirable young woman 1 ever met I" Amy went on. apparently uncon scious of his admiration: "Even though she has no certificate, 1 have her ring, you know, and that letter, if we could get it, might tell where she was married. How would it be to search Mr. Tremaine's rooms for Helen's desk? If it should be found in his possession it would be another point againt him. But that will not be necessary of she recognizes him. He certainly believes her lo be dead, and if she should suddenly con front him, the shock ought wring from him acknowledgment. Is it not so?" she asked earnestly, turning to Dr. Searle. To her disappointment he shook his head with a dubious air. “It might with any ordinary scound rel," said he, "but Tremaine appears to me extraordinary. He's a cool hand, and prepared for the worst, I feel cer tain. If she should recognize him, and claim him, it would be all right, but would she recognize him? And, if she did not, but just stood smiling, in her pretty, childish way, wouldn't he grow bold and accuse us of a conspiracy? And unless his presence could be to her as great a shock as we intend hers to be to him, I fear she will not recog nize him." But Amy could not realize that at all. "I feel perfectly pertain that she will recognize me," she said, confidently, “and how much more this man whom she loved, and who is her husband! My poor, lovely Helen! ’My head aches,’ she would say to me, and lay her bright hair down on my shoulder with a great sob, that told me it was her heart, not her head; that was aching. I never told her how fond of her I was, but I used to think she knew, and found a little bit of comfort in my sympathy when mamma was so sus picious, and this wretch whom she loved, so cold. I believe she will re member all at the sight bf me and if so we shall have nothing further to fear from Mr. Tremaine I Pray, pray let us lose no more time, but put it to the test," she pleaded to Bertie. “Let me go to her, or bring her here to me at once." “Let her come here,- said Searle, earnestly. "Just call her, Bertie. Don t prepare her in any way. Call her down, and let her suddenly meet her old friend and pupil face to face." It was done accordingly. Bertie, go ing to the room dooc, called to his sis ter in her room above and was answer ed instantly, in a voice so sweet and blithe, and joyous that Amy scarcely thought it could be Helen's. "Coming, dear I" said the sweet, dear, clear tone*, "coming immedi ately I" And Amy trembled with emotion a* the light footstep* that carry a light heart came tripping down the stairs, and presently the door flew open. Helen came in smiling, looking like the bright, gay, beautiful girl Amy had first known her. “Here 1 am, Bert I" she said, joy ously, then, seeing Amy: “You have company—" and drew back, startled and shy.But Amy sprang forward with open arms. “Helen!" she cned. “Dear Helen I Dear Miss Clare! You cant have forgotten me I Think! Look! It is I, your old pupil. Amyl” But Helen shrank away, shrank clos er to Bertie’s side, until she clung to him. The brightness had died from her face, and a certain distress was mingled with the wonder that had replaced it, but no gleam of recogni tion was there, no, not one I “Who is this lady?" she whi.per^ed to Bertie, “and what can she mean? I don’t know her." Amy heard the whispered words. “Not know mcl" she repeated, in grief and futile indignation. "Oh, Helen, how hard that seems! Think, think again; you cannot have forgot ten Amy Gordon, dear; it is impos sible I" Helen answered, with an aid of sin cerity and candor that was unquestion able:“I am sorry, since it seems to pain you so, but you must certainly be mistaken. I never saw your face or heard your name before, to my recol lect ion.” Searle nodded quietly. “As 1 expected.’’ said he. resignedly. "It w-ill need a greater shock than this Co clear the cloud* awayi Don’t des|>air, though." he whispered to Amy. "Wait until you hear my plan. Ill arouse her memory!

CHA ITER LXni The Wedding Day Tuesday, the day set for poor Flor- ric’s wedding, dawned fair and smil ingly; as bright as if it were to witness the consummation of a happy love, instead of the ruin of a young life’s hopes, and the triumph of a villain’s plots and guilty passion. Although the marriage was not to take place until the evening, every one in Mr. Hamilton's house was astir early; the servants, because there were many prejarations yet to be completed; the principle because anxious and un happy hearts and troubled brains were never yet disposed to peaceful sleeping. Florrie was almost as white as the satin robe that lay shimmering in the sunlight on her bed that afternoon, its silvery brightness seeming to mock her misery. Polly had laid all the fin ery out, and called her young mistress to look at it. Surely so much white splendor would please any woman's eyes, the poor girl had thought, let her heart be ever m» sore, but Florrie turn ed away from it with a shudder. "I wish I could be married in black!" she groaned wearily. “In a widow's mourning weeds; or. if we must have white, a winding-sheet would please me better. Put it away. Polly; cover it. hide it from my sight. God grant it may soon serve me for my shroud!" It was seldom, indeed, that she said so much, being quiet and silent and singularly calm, with the calmness of despair. apathetic But somehow, during the last two days, she had observed a |>eculiar change in Amy Gordon, that at first caused her merely surprise, but lately the surprise had a touch of hope in it. On this, her miserable marriage morning, how ever, that hope had died and left her the more utterly despairing.This change in Amy had assumed, the singular form of neglect of her self. Florence.

I from solitude, and was thankful to find I Amy ever at her side during these last three most intolerable days of all; however, as her misery approached closely, and stared her in the face, this much-needed consolation had been withdrawn; Amy appeared to have abandoned her. From the hour in which, on the pre ceding Saturday evening, a gentleman to Florence unkown had called, and held with Ant) a long, private inter view. after which she had left the house in his company, the girl had seemed to withdraw herself from her unhappy friend’s society, and to be absorbed in separate and private inter ests of which she offered Florence neither explanation nor account. She was perpetually receiving notes, which apparently required answering in per son. for, invariably, after they came, she would dress in haste, and sally forth, remaining absent for hours to gether. At first Florence had given utterance to a gentle expression of regretful surprise, which might have called for an explanation, but Amy only shrank, in evident embarrassment, from her friend's sadly questioning eyes. "You must forgive me. and trust me, without explanation." she had said ex citedly. “If the mean* to pay your Spa’s debt to Mr. Tremaine could be *nd, we might save rots yet. I am trying to save you. Whether I shall succeed or not remains to be seen, but this 1 say to you"—she flung her arms impetuously around Florrie and kissed her pale, thin cheeks—“this much I say to you. and it is all I dare to say. hope, my poor, pale darling; hope. hope, hope!" For she had resolutely refused to tell Florrie of Bertie’s return, or of the efforts that were being made to prevent the marriage. "Foe. if we fail." she argued, in her earnest, common-sense, matter-of-fac- way. "if wc fail after having raised hopes, we shall make her fate so much the more bitter. Our chance is but a chance, indeed. I. for one. have little faith in it. I work with Hope on one side of me and Despair on the other, and Despair seems to me likely to win the day; but I won’t put Florrie in risk of having a cruel disappointment added to her present sufferings. The most I can do. the most 1 dare do, is to bid her have courage and hope!" And thus it was that a gleam of Children Like It—' So Will You Hope’s brightness had flashed across the utter blackness of poor Florrie’s despair. Amy’s earnest word*, "Hope, hope, hope!” had rung in her heart like a joy bell The silence was the more terrible, the d arkness was the more intense, when the hooeful music leased, and the sun hid his beams be- lind the clouds again. For the wed- ling day arrived, the very day on which the sacrifice of a heart and its hopes was to be consummated, and still Amy’s mysterious conduct had continued, and she had made no further sign.

Helen! his murdered wife! _ He retreated, with a cry of agony Even thus had she looked upon that cursed night, thus white, thus wild, thus accusing; had she. then risen from the ocean’s depths to tax him with his villain and to claim him? He never thought of Helen in the flesh. Had he not seen her die? Had not his own hands sent her to her awful doom? it was Helen’s spirit that made his guilty conscience quail, the white, accusing angel with which flesh and blood could never cope.
