On Saturday night last the boys Gel
ebrated Halloween" by changing
signs and playing good many tricks
upon inanimate objects. The mere
changing of signs, boxes, ETC., il not
serious offence, but when it comes to
overturning out-houses and smoke

it is carrying the joke too far. as the
Judge said to the man who carried the
AK three miles for a joke.

dences that the two men elected on the
ticket nominated at Adrian, have been
warm friends of the ADVANCE fol
years. Looking at it from personal
standpoint, these are the two men w

hoped would be elected if any on thu
ticket were to he. The ADVANCE il
disappointed on some points. but in
the main we have no reason to com
plain.
