Farmers over in the vicinity of Dur-

account of the operations of a "fire bug"

hand, was destroyed early last Sunday
mornning. This barn was s 45 x 70

Murphy, rented, however, by James
Murphy, on the 8th Concessiou of
Glenelg Township, and within a mile or
two of where other barns were burned.
In the barn were, a large pig, imple-
ments, some barley, oats and four loads
of hat'''. There it nobody living on the
farm, and the fire was first seen by a'
young man by the name of Peart while
on his way home from Markdale.
The fires have been occurring at
regular intervals of about two weeks,
and no doubt is the work of some person
with a craze for that particular kind of
destruction. There is nothing yet to
suggest who the criminal may be.

IT WAS COLD FOR PICNIC
There Was a 0ocie Ci owd, t at Weatherman
Knocked The Program
Au.idht .all the heat of the pretieut
summer the last thing to be looked for
was a cold afternoon; yet that was whet
the capricious weather man hande'l out
on Thursday of last week when several
hundred Lnckoowites, mealy returued
soldiers and their families, gathered et
Point Clark to enjoy a social (ley in° the
open. There was a splendid turnout, in
fact all the conditions for a pleasant
outing were there -but the weather.
A cold strong wind blew off the lake,
and instead est baLhing aud lounging
about in the mellow sunlight tied balmy
breezes, folk were glad' to seek the
shelter of friendly trees and houses.
As a result, the plans "rif th;)se in
charge were quite upset, and. it was
impossible to carry out anything in the
nature of a program. A good evening's
entertainment was arranged for by the
committee, but when lunch was over
everyone thought of the fireside com-
forts at home, and the grounds were
deserted at an early hour.
The committee which made arrange-
ments for the picnic feel grateful for
the splendid response by the citizens of.
Lucknow. On behalf of the soldiers
they wish to thank those who donated
their cars to and from the lake. Of 52
cars promised for the day 51 made the
trip and carried 302 people- The corn
inittee also •wishas to express high
appreciation -Cif7the done:time ley- the
McClure family of a freezer of ice cream
,which • provided a t reat to everyone, on
the grounds.
The fact that'parties attended the
prenic who had no soldiers in the fatnily
has caused dissatisfaction with some for
whom no transportation was provided.
These should remember that.the grounds
are open to all comers, that it was a
holiday afternoon, and that all parties,
whether' relativese4 soldiers or not,
furnishing their own transportation
were free to go. The committee pro-
vided only for soldiers and their families
and those who had a part -in making
and carrying out the arringements. It
was 03 light task for those who did the
work, and it is unfortunate that efforts
freely given__ should be rewarded with
blame and ill feeling.

CELEBRATION OF PEACE
