Wingham Orangemen were a happy group on Saturday when over 8,000 people crowd- ed into town for the first Orange Walk held here since 1952. An estimated 1,000 members from 38 lodges joined in the parade which started at Riverside Park and proceeded east on Victoria Street, then north on Josephine to the ball park for the after- noon ceremonies. Ten fife and drum bands as well as nine oth- er bands were in the parade which was headed up by the Teeswater Pipe Band. George Cameron, of Wingham, led the parade on his white horse.

AT THE PARK Elmer Wood of Orillia, past rand master of the L.O.L., tario West, was the guest peaker at the park. Mr. Wood xhorted the Orangemen to he ood adherants of their home lodges. He said it is not good enough to come out on the 12th of July, but necessary to have good attendance at lodges dur- ing the year. He told the crowd that every Orangeman should look for the little things that need to be done in every com- munity. "Check your vision," he said, "see things close to you as well as those far away." He went on to use examples of the small things which are so often overlooked because peo- ple only see the big projects. Mr. Wood also told his listeners of the work being done at the Children's Home at Richmond Hill, which is sponsored by the Orange Lodges of Ontario. Master of ceremonies was Ross Errington, of R. R. 2, Luck- now, a past county master.

Clinton Plans Centre For Centennial A $ 167,000 arena and community cen- tre was approved as Clinton's cent- ennial year project The project had been considered for nearly a year by a 14-man coun- cil-appointed cen- tennial project committee, consist ing of represent- atives of service clubs and the Cha- mber of Commerce and two members of council. Chairman of the committee, David Beattie, presented the report to cou- ncil. Ontario Municipal Board approval for financing the pro- ject is being sou- ght.
