BFPO THE BANNER Listowel, Ontario 2249b FORDWICH---- Mrs. Robert Gib- son was hostess for the June -meeting of the Forclwich W.I. last Tuesday night. Correspondence was read by Mrs. Lyle Simmons and current events by Mrs. Bert Winston. The roll Gall "A cheer for the blues", was answered by 36 members and six visitors. The Institute holiday at Guelph in July was discussed, also a pro- ject for the fall fair in FordWich this year, which will be a historical Project with the new gates being dedicated. A donation of $10.00 Was voted as a prize for this, The bus trip to London on July 14th was planned and a committee named to look after arrangements. The motto "No one gets indiges- tion from swallowing their pride", was given by Mrs. Glenn Martin. What kind of world would we have without pride, especially in this great land of Canada? Pride is like the attic to a houset--the highest part and the most empty, The most of us at some time have had to swallow our 'pride because there comes a time in all our lives when we have to depend on some- one, so don't be afraid to swallow your pride, "you won't got indi- gestion", The guest speaker, Mrs. Charles Schaefer of Gowanstown, who spoke on first aid and took as her theme "Point YOur Way to 'Safety". She stressed that it is better to lose seconds, than lose lives and said persons with first aid training are more safety, conscious. She said careful hands- on a steering wheel are friends, unsteady hands your enemy. The home and car are the two places where most accidents happen, Mrs, Schaefer was presented with a small gift,' Sandra Allan and Annie Winkel favoured with two songs and the 4-H club girls presented a humor- ous skit; "Meat in the Menu". The president, Mrs, Anson Demerling closed the meeting and a social time was spent. Mrs. Mel Allan, Mrs. Emma Williamson, Mrs. John Winkel 'and Mrs. Fred McCann served the lunch, Honor Families The friends and- neighbors of Blake's Church and community honored the Kilpatrick and Mc- Dowell families at a gathering Friday night. Rev. Mr. Kaiser in- vited the two families to the front and addresses were read by How- ard Blake and Mark Berger. Lovely gifts were presented from the community, and the Choir of Blake's Church also presented Elaine and Murray McDowell with a gift. An addrestwas read by Louise Andrew, A program followed and lunch was served. meeting. We children, while going back and forth to school, would wait for Mr. Anderson; we were always sure of a ride in his buggy. I mention Mr. Anderson's name as an example of the kind of people who lived in those days. There were many others who were equally as upstanding and as noble as he, men who were honest and true and not afraid to take a stand at all times for what they believed to be right. Many of the younger men today are occupying and cultivating the fields which their fathers and grandfathers cleared so many years ago., Matthew 'Arnold was quite _right when he once said that "the history of a nation is the history of its great men." As we all are citi- tens of a good country it there- fore behooves the younger folk to offer themselves more 'freely in promoting a better way of life.

Henry Leishman It has occurred to the writer that a partial history of the growth and development of our country should be a matter of pride and gratification to every loyal Ca- nadian by birth or adoption. Huron was behind most of the other coun- ties in being settled. It wasn't until 1833 or '34 that there was any settlement in the northern part of the county. About 10 years previous to this the counties of Grey and Bruce were being settled byway_ of Peterborough and Markdale. As our native township of East Wa- wanosh. came into being the same years as Confederation, 1867, a short retrospect should be of in- terest to the people at large. Our Prime Minister has said that "Corne1967 Canada will cedebrate, in right royal style, its centennial". It is hoped that the enterprising folk of Wawanosh will also under- take to celebrate their hundred years of progress in a fitting manner. "I have been in many places Sweet as the lily of the dell, Some of these I often fancied, Others I did not like so well; But I always 'heard you calling 'Come back home and hang your at td hat : DearHuron, I always loved you, You ain't such a bad old place at' The land of North Huron was rough and hilly; it was thickly wooded country, and before any crop could -be had the trees had to be cut down, sawed into logs, made into long piles and burned. Millions of feet of fine timber, not only in Huron, but throughout Ontario, had to be destroyed. To us it seems tragic, but it was unavoidable. The major task in the early days was the erection of a barn to serve a derooupbs. le purpose, a shelter for the livestock and a place to store the • At the beginning these barns were made of logs, The trees had to be cut down and sawn into the requir- ed length, morticed at each end, and hewn flat on two sides, then placed one on top of another to the required height. The space between was chinked with mud and with a substantial roof such a building was quite strong and comfortable. The erect i ng of these buildings was a task• which required a lot of men, so invitations would be sent out for a barn raising. The men .from the countryside would come, also the women and girls of the neighborhood to help with the lunch. A barn-raising was always quite a social event, Whiskey was plentiful and cheap in those lays. I have heard it said that one could buy a gallon jug of whiskey at most any grocery store for two York shillings. These -barn raisings always ended with a good old square dance at night, often on the barn floor or sometimes out in the moonlight where one could swing his partner: .until nearly day- light. The men and women of those days worked hard,,.-,and it wasn't many years until:•" these crude 141dings were rePtaced by larger Oooden houses; else narrow clear- ings gave way to wide fertile fields, orchards were planted and the wheat fields waved with the golden. grain — and the country grew and developed into the beauti- ful surroundings that we see to- day. We of the present generation can surely say with the Psalmist: "The lines are fallen unto us in pleasant places. Yea, we have a goodly heritage". Mr. Finlay Anderson was a Scotsman of the old Kirk. He was treasurer of the township, a posi- tion which he cherished for a long time. He was also a director of the Wawanosh Fire Insurance Co. with headquarters at Dungannon. He owned a black driving horse With a white blaze on the face and four white legs, and• Mr. Anderson, with his white flowing beard, driv- ing' along in his nice buggy, surely resembled an Old Country gentle- man. Once every Month he would drive to Dungannon, a distance of 18 suites, to attend the directors FOR RENT -• COTTAGE for rent, water front, on Georgian Bay, Bruce Peninsula.
