Froats and Mrs. Lorne Mohr had a trip to Eldon House, London. The bus left Lucan at 1.15 pm and arrived back at 5.45 pm. After touring Eldon House a picnic lunch and games were enjoyed at Victoria Park. The bus trip ended all Explorer fes- tivities until next Fall. The Explorers have had a most successful year with a splendid enrollment and attendance. As if the 90 degree heat of the past ten days was not enough the Lucan fire department re- ceived a call at 9 pm Thursday and another Friday morning. The latter was to Clandeboye when smoke from a fuse caused an alarm but no harm was done, The Thursday night fire caused much excitement, as dozens of cars followed the fire engine to the home of Mr. Jim Mugford, concession 5 Biddulph, about four miles north of Lucan. No police investigation was necessary to find the cause of the blaze. Planning to build a new silo it was necessary to remove an old hen-house, near the barn. As the building was old and no good Mr. Mugford decided the easiest way to dis- pose of it was to burn it down However the heat was so intense that the barn was threatened, so he called the fire department. All is well that ends well. The barn is still standing, and Mr. Mugford got rid of his old hen- house.
