'Harvey Johnston, reeve of Mor-

wreath on the simple flat stone
on the floor of the torah to corn-
mernerate the arrival of Dr, Will-
iam. Dunlop at the mouth of the
Menesetung River in 1-827, and
the building in that year, by Dr.
Dunlop, of the first permanent
habitation on the site of the
town of Goderich, '
About 25 people made the as-
cent on foot to the top of the cliff
on the north bank of the Mait-
land Estuary, where. the Dunlop
tomb stands high over' the river
flats and the ciarving course of
the BItiewatee, Highway, In pre-
paration for the Sunday' cere-
mony, the historicai committee
of the Huron County' Council had
arranged for the cutting of the
tall weeds around "the tomb, and
the pulling of some of the long
grass which is forcing its way
through the crevices ,between the
tomb's stones and concrete,
The brief and simple ceremony
at the tomb was conducted by
Rev. 'William Weir,
formerly of
Goderich, and no'of Hrampton,

present that it was by the enter-
prise and imagination of Tiger
Dunlop, more than by any other
single cause, that settlement was
launched at Goderich, and tirm
foundations were laid in a wild-
erness clearing for the busy lake
port and agricultural and manu-
facturing centre which has been
established in the century and a

Churph*Cainii Busy;
375 Children Attended
(By our Bayfield correspondent)
In conversation with K. C.
Hortop, Huron Anglican 'Church
Camp manager, we learned that
they have had very excellent
camps this year. To date 375
children have spent a happy and
profitable vacation there. Over
a long weekend there was a reg-
istration of 90 AYPA. members;
130 .LA. and G.A. members came
Tuesday for ethe regular camp
with Rev. L. Patterson, All Saints
Church, London, as Dean, and his
staff of teachers. Following this
there will be another camp.
Mr. Hortop explained that this
year it. was decided to have a
layman as camp manager and
that each camp have its own
Dean and staff.
When he was approached to
take the poen of manager, he
thought of it as a sort of public
relations officer to keep things
running smoothly. Ile has learn-
ed that to do so, takes every
minute in the day and that the
manager has to turn his hand to
everything, even. to digging up
plugged drains in an emergency.
Hut he enjoys the work and is
admirably suited to the post since
he is principal of Gordon Mc-
Gregor school, Windsor. Mrs.
Horton has charge of the dining -
room and they are looking for-
ward to improvements and the
building of a chapel at the camp
site.
