ronto National Yacht Club.
But Bayfield was a surprise to

to see it put into, the water. But
I learned so much about boats.
I never knew there were so many
in our harbor. Of course there are
the fishing boats, and there' will
be the many smaller craft at the
Boat Club again this summer, but
the boats that I saw on the ground
today, overwhelmed me.
I asked why they chose Hay-
field, to keep their boats in the
winter and I was told, it is so
much easier to get them onto land
here, than at Goderich or other
places.
I saw painters, I saw the own-
ers of some of, the boats, all work-
ing and getting ready to sail the
lakes, come summer time.
With the fishermen's nets in the
background, it was as picturesque
a scene as you could see at Cape
Cod. I saw the following cabin
cruisers belonging to, Mr. and Mrs,
Fred Sandy, Goderich, "The San-
dee"; Dr. and Mrs. W. N. Waters,
Goderich, "Wave Crest"; Dr. and
Mrs, G. F. Mills, Goderich, Mr.
and Mrs Rae Watson, (liberal can-
didate) Lacknovv, "Cycle Queen;"
Mr. and Mrs. Russel Kerr, Bay-
field, "Russ-Anne"; Mr. and Mrs.
Elwood Epps, Clinton; Magistrate
and Mrs, D. E. Holmes, Goderich,
"The Quest"; Mr. Clare De Veulle,
Stratford, 'Miss Be-Haven"; The
Peter -Brothers, Stratford; .3, Car-
ter, London.
Sailboats besides the Escort II: I
saw "Hitty" owned by Mr. and
Mrs, Jim MacLeod, Guelph, and
one belonging to a Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Thomas, Stratford. Don
Couts, Seaforth, has one he built
himself, a beautiful boat and he
calls it "The Duette!' and is now
working at one that is to be an
exact duplicate of his own boat.
I saw the old fishing buildings
I used to go down to see years
ago, but this new side of Hayfield
harbour was a surprise to me.

Farm Radio Forum project, now
in its 20th year, as a means of
two-way communication between
farm people and government and
other authoritative sources who
have to do with farm affairs, was
strongly emphasized at the 19th
Annual Meeting of Ontario Farm
Forums, attended by some ,200 de-
legates arid guests.
Reports of retiring chairman,
Donald. Munro, Carleton County,
and secretary-manager Mrs. Edith
Storr, recorded the success of the
past season's Forum broadcasts,
discussions and Forum reports,
particularly the success of the
newly instituted TV Forum broad-
casts.
During the meeting Hon. W. A.
Goodfellow, Minister of Agri-cul-
ture, stressed the importance of
the Forum discussions and repor-
ts, and indicated that an increas-
ed government grant to the work
would be forthcoming this year.
He said that the Farm Forum re-
ports were among the most val-
;Able types of information reach-
ing his department,
Though there has been a falling
off .of numbers of Forums in re••
cent years; this was treated by ex-
perienced leaders in such educa-
tional projects, as being a passing
Phase, the emphasis being laid An
the fact that this project had es,
tahlished a record for education
projects of its kind by being still
going after nearly 20 years with
little change of technique,
Resolutions passed included two
referred to the Ontario Federation
of Agriculture, one urging com-
pensation from Hydro for live-
stock losses from high tension
wires, on which negotiations are
now proceeding with Hydro; and
Visit to Bayfield Dock is Surprise
Both to Toronto Men and Reporter
(By Mrs. R. H. F. Gardner)
Just a few weeks ago, Dr. J. G.
Griffin, who is in charge of the
Canadian Mental Health Associat-
ion of Toronto, and L. C. Radcliff
of the Toronto Branch of the Bell
Telephone Co., Toronto, knew no-
thing about Bayfield.
Seeing a classified advertisement
in one of their Toronto papers,
of a sailboat for sale in Bayfield
they decided to drive up and see
it. Both have had sailing boats
before, but the one advertised was
a larger boat than any they had
owned before, so knowing nothing
about Bayfield, they decided to
find the place and see the boat,
It belonged to a Al Seale, Strat-
ford, and was called "Escort 11",
and for the past year has been
moored in the harbor here, said to
be the largest sailboat ever moor- A1
at Hayfield. 42 feet long, the
boat has two tons of hand ball-
ast, four tons of lead in the keel,
.has a mast near 40 feet tall, and
a cabin beautifully fitted with
sleeping accommodations for four
people.
