SOURIS INCORPORATION.

A Mecting of Citizens—Practical Steps Con- templated,

Quite a large and representative meeting was held in St. Patrick’s Hall, for the purpose of discussing the cheapest way to be tuken in the Incorporation of the town of Souris. A considerable amount of dis- cussion took place. Mr. John McLean, Mr. Geo. B. McKachern and Mr. Reid, of Summerside—whbo kindly gave his opinioa of imcorpuration— being requestes to do so, took part.

Mr. MeLeen and Mr. MeEachern showed plainly the advantages to be gained by this step. Mr. Me- Lean justly remarked that the

town of Souris had the ments of any other tewn of its size aod im- portance inthe Maritime Provinces. Mr. Geo. McE:ichern said also that if Souris was eveu incorporated for two reasons it would be satisfactory. First, Souris is in very great veed of at least one policeman, or perhaps Lwe; Secondly, the people of this town want fire protection. He ably showed that there was no time when Souris wanted a police force as badly as in the summer season. Souris being a reaport town, is visited every summer by a large

number of sailors who someiimes causes great annoyance to the citizens. This is a plain fact and

it is hardly safe fora young lady to walk down Main Street without being insulted by a drunken sailor. Other speakers fol- lowed and handled the subject ablv indeed: Mr. Geo. Morrow, Mr R. F. McDonald — Mr. Thomas Kickham and Mr. Frederick Morrow,

The meeting was very orderly. Mr, James McQuaid oceupied the chair. On

a motion of Dr. Lavie, the meeting was edjourned until next Friday, at the hour otf 7 p.m.

MURRAY HARBOR SOUTH NOTES.

The ice in some places is said to be unsafe.

We regret to say that Willie Murley, son of Mr. R. Murley, who has been ailing for some months, 13 not much better.

Mrs. Thomas Beck, of this place, who has been sutfering with an affection of her eyes, left fur the States a few days ago in hopes of having them successfully treated.

Our singing school, which has been in progress al! winter under the efficient tuition of Mr. M. Sencebaugh, is largely attended by the people of thia place and the adjoining districts. His work has proved very successful and encouraging.

The “Dawnirg Light” Mission Band of this place recently held a Concert and Pie Social in the public Hal], Murray Harbor South, which, notwithstanding the very unpleasant travelling, was quite a sudcess. It was presided over by Rev. Mr. Allan, who opened with very suitable remarks. The programme was carr.ed cut ina very creditable manner. J.ooking into the finances, they found as:ug little sum of money, fully meeting their expectations.

The horse racing on Murray River ice is ersating much sport and attracting many spectators. Amongthose who have the fastest are: Mr. Richards, mare recently purchased from Mr. W. H. Prowee, Mr. A. Harty, Mr. A. Reynolds, Mr. John Bull. We are much pleased to be inform- ed tbat Mr. Matthew Gratto is in posses— sion of a very swift young horse. We sha.! expect that people who a'tend the next exhibition will have achanc2 to see the fleetness of the animal and obtain his record. The trot which took place on the basin Wednesday the 3lst ult., resulted as follows: Ist prize was given to Mr. Kearney, 2nd to Johny Stewart, Cape Bear 3rd to Mr. Mahar.

The people of Cape Bear are doing an unusually vig stroke of work at boat building this season. They sre hustling in order to have them completed and in readiness for the spring fishing.

NOTES FROM SOURIS.

Doctors are kept on the jump attending to the measles.

Mr. Reid, of Summerside, was in town on Monday.

A considerable amount of ice is blocked in the harbor yet,and there is a poor prospect of it taking a start eeawards.

Some people of this town are very neg- lectful in turning their cows out on the street, especially on Saturdays. These cattle are a great annoyance to the people of the country, robbing their -leighs of hay, straw and sometimes oats. Oo Mon- day last acow atrempted io hook a horse that was hitched toa post in front of Mr. S. Campbell’s store.

W bere are our grit overseersnow? Why don’t they open some of the drains that are filled up with old shavings and dirt? Wake up! and let the water run. Per- haps some of them will never again bave the pleasure of “over-seeing.”

Mr. Albert Dingwell, of Bay Fortune, where he has been ruoning a steam mill for some years, has removed all the machipery to this place where he is erect- iugalarge buildivg fur the purpose of carrying on the business.

Mr. Joho McKenna, of Mount S:ewart, has opened up # painting establishment in the building formerly occupied by Capt. James Brennan, deceased.—-Com.

DAIRY SCHOOL BUILDING.

A Beginning From Which Great Results Will Grow In Future.

We present here the picture of the first dairy school building in one of the wes- tern states. It does not matter which state itis. We give it here because this square box, without a particle of archi- tectural beauty, without a tree or shrub around it, isa historic beginning, “It cost less than $3,000, with all its ap- paratus. Of this sum only once-third Was appropriated by the state. If it had

DAIRY SCHOOL BUILDING,

been planned in one of the older states, an architect who knew how to blerd sightliness with utility would have been employed to furnish the designs for it. Architectural attractiveness could haye been thrown in with no more cost.

We hope those who hereafter plan structures additional for this same school, as well as those who design other buildings in other states, will remember that even a pigpen may be pleasing «to the eye in its construction and be better adapted to its use than the one built on the old idea that anything which wil] hold will do. ,

Nevertheless, although the woodén box in the picture is an excellent exami- ple of how not to make a building ap- pear on the outside, yet there is some+ thing about it not unpleasing to those who look deeper than the external ap- pearance. It shows just the plain, ear- nest, determined purpose of those who erected it. It is dedicated to pure, rug- ged use. Thatis always the first idea, and it should be. In time a grassy lawn shaded with trees and intersected by graveled or asphalt walks will surround the square box. Great blazing beds of flowers will shine in its grounds in sum- mer and handsome annexes will break its up and down and straight across linés. The time will not be very long either? The earnest, rugged purpose of which this box is the expression will draw te the school hundreds of young men and women throughout the brave, resourceful western state. Scientific dairying as there taught will enrich the state by millions of dollars. That wooden box is all right. “
