MERCER.
Miss G. looked very nice on Sunday in her high-class dress.... Too bad of Miss S. not to swing with J.C. at the last dance.... By the appearance of affairs at present, the boys don't consider marriage a failure, aßtwo at least are contemplating matrimony, and two more are getting along that way. H.ftl.F. has caught the bird and is building the nest in a great hurry. W.S., the ever-promising 'cockatoo,' has been to town on furniture bent, and judging by his careworn countenance he has had a rough time of it.. ..The tin-can brigade promises to be there... .The ' rosey ' time that J.H. was having along the WhanpramariDO Road was due in a great measure to his companion, who says he is a nice boy but rather young. Never mind, J., dear boy, time will alter that....' Down by the River Side ' was sung by our local Sunday school teacher in great style at the la9t concert ...Who were the two young ltdiestnat went fruit-gathering near the old tunnel the other Sunday ? It was a pity they did not learn to climb when young. ...What was the attraction for the three jubilant wonders at the window the other Saturday night?... Too bad of J.C. to puss that par in the Observer on to the shoulders of his brother. J. says a brother's love is unselfish to the lastdegree. 'J he lover's walk is well patronised by the youth and beauty of this township and the railway, I notice, is well represented,... Lochiel ! Lochiel ! beware of the day, when the Lowlanders shall meet thee in the tunnel.
