Really then, it seems likely that it just might be that life is more than the practical, the deed is more than the technique, and living is more than the daily bind, Come to think - a superfluity is a more than a called for flow, To be very practical, it is called a "fountain"! frequently, and the harvesting "Pickers Rig" is a big step forward from when bags of cucumbers had to be dragged from row to row, now the bags travel with the pickers on the "Rig". The Van Esbroeck's are a busy family as they also grow several acres of turnips and, like most farmers in Huron County, many acres of corn and beans.

The Mayor gave a brief outline of the history of the property upon which the park is located. He noted it was the site of the former Mickle flour and feed mill, Mr. Geo. T. Mickle first owned the mill and was later known as Geo. T. Mickle and Sons Ltd. A few years after Mr. Mickle's death in 1950 it became the property of his son Frank Mickle and was known as F. A. Mickle and Son Ltd. and upon his death a few years ago was owned by his son George. In 1964 the business was sold to St. Clair Grain and Feed. Mayor Luckham also noted the significant contribution to the community given by the three generations of Mickles. They have been active in social and business and church activities since thet came here in 1882, Frank Mickle served on the local Board of Education for many years and his son George has been active in municipal government since 1949 serving as councillor, deputy-reeve, reeve and mayor and also served for several yeai.s on the P.U.C. commission. He announced with the consent of the Authority the new park was, to be named Mickle Park in honour of the Mickle families who had made such a significant contribution to the town.
