Klokora was ever and is yet one of the strongest Catholic centres in the province, and our hopes were more than realzrd In that line when we visited the beautiful new church of St Malacll, and beheld the Im¬ mense congregation that attends it on Sundays.- The present Incumbent of the pariah, Rev J J McDonald , Is an Ideal priest, one ever sollcdltous for the welfare of his ttock, both spiritually and temporally.

"Neither locks have they to their doors nor bars to their windows." We understand that a0drop of the "creater" Is not to be had In the whole community, aud even the dc- ncendanls of thone who one time kept It, tremble at the name of Father Dojle , the stout priest who naged an Incessant war for Its ex¬ termination during his Incumbency there.
