For three years they farmed "Sunday Chief," a very val- uable pacing mare owned byJack and Norman Hardy of Lunen was killed recently in a freak!: accident.

The Lucan United Church CE building was the setting last Tuesday afternoon and evening for the Lucan Centennial Tea and antique display. Most of the members and some of the guests wore centennial dresses which added much to the centennial atmosphere. Mrs. Frank Hardy, the presi- dent, welcomed the guests and the treasurer Mrs. Jim Lockyer was in charge of admission. Mrs. Harold Corbett, Mrs. Wes Atkinson and Mrs. Frank Jolliffe were conveners of the antiques and Mrs. Sheridan Revington and Mrs. John Park were conveners of refreshments. At one end of the long room, Mrs. Cecil Robb was in charge of a bedroom including antique bed, dresser, toilet set, rugs and night apparel. At the op- posite end of the room Mrs. Guy Ryan was in charge of a dining table, set with a set of dishes over 100 years old, tiny wine glasses, old fashioned cov- ered butter and cheese dishes. In between, were two long tables with hundreds of antiques, including cases of coins, pic- tures, newspapers, clothing, dishes, time pieces, lamps and many others. Members took turns watching over and displaying these articles. Much credit for the success of the project goes to the president, Mrs. Frank Hardy, who worked for weeks, not only contacting all members but also her rela- tives, neighbours and friends for unusual antiques. Refreshments were served in the old school room, where Mrs. FARMERS WELCOME RAIN Although last Wednesday and Thursday's rain wrought havoc on communities holding Fall fairs and parades, yet it was very welcome to a number of local farmers who were running short of water and whose ground was so hard it made fall ploughing difficult. The weatherman just can't please everyone. President Ian Dallas presided at the dinner meeting of the Lucan Lions Club, held in the Anglican Church basement last Monday evening.

Mrs. Harvey Hodgins' group of the Ladies Guild catered for the dinner. BY HOMER PIGEON St. Mathew 19, verse 30, reads as follows But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first. Now this is quite all right, but it doesn't say anything about coming from last to be first three weeks in a row. ,This is just what Andy and Jack Hardy have done. They were last for the last time the first week of September. (Figure that one out if you can). Two weeks ago they won the big Tweed race and this week we had two races, one from Oshawa of 136 miles and one from Smith Falls of 300 miles. The birds were liberated at both race points at 8 a.m. The first bird was home from Oshawa at 11:45.03. It had an average speed of 10'734 yds. per minute, This is the way they finished: Jack Hardy, Clarence Hardy, Clarence Hardy, Chuck Barrett, Norm Hardy, Norm Hardy, M. Culbert, Dwight Henderson, T & G Lofts, Mike Eggett, Bill Ennis. As you can see we had two of the old faithfuls back with us this week. It was good to see both Chuck and Bill back Girls make quilt and pick leaves The Lucan-Clandeboye Ex- plorers held their first fall ex- pedition in the United Church schoolroom last Monday with 2'7 Explorers, and four counsellors, present, The expedition opened with games in charge of Miss Carol Burley. The new officers, Chief Ex- plorer, Julie Noyes, Keeper of the Log. Nancy Lewis and Keeper of the Treasure, Joan Lockyer, were installed by Mrs. William Froats. Four members taught a new camp song to the group, From now until Dec. 1, the girls will be divided into three groups. The Red Star girls led by Mrs. Keith Kraul and Miss Carol Burley will be taught, "What it means to be an Explorer". The Blue Star girls led by Mrs. Froats will be exploring, "What makes up a community" and the Gold Star girls under Mrs. McRob- erts will be "Exploring in Aut- umn." October 2, the Gold Star girls will meet at 5 pm for a hike and to gather leaves. The other two groups will meet in the United Church for their exped- ition but will later be joined by the Gold Star girls for reports from the "Tellers", as to what each group is doing, and for the closing ceremony. The Blue Star girls have al- ready made a small quilt for the overseas' bale, in the race once more. The Smith Falls race was a long drawn out performance. There were '74 birds from Lucan and they didn't make quite as good a velocity as the birds from the short race. The wind got very strong in the afternoon and this has a very tiring affect on them. That is, all the birds but Jack and Andy Hardy's. The first bird landed on Jack's roof at twenty minutes to six. It was out in front of the rest of the birds by 20 minutes. It should also be mentioned that this is the same bird that won the Tweed race a week ago. It is quite a bird that can win two races in a row and be out in front by so much. The results are as follows: Jack Hardy, 1, 2 and 3, Norm Hardy, 4, 5 and 6, Willy Vanneste, '7, Norm Har- dy, 8 and 9, Clarence Hardy, 10, Jim Spearin, 11. By 8:00 p.m. on Saturday it was quite dark. There were many empty perches in many of th e lofts. But as the sun rose on a beauti- ful fall morning it brought with it birds to the following also rans: Mert Culbert, T. & G. Loft, Dwight Henderson, Mike Eggett.
