Archives personnel say there has been a good number of visitors to the historical room this year and they are people who are real- ly interested. Inside there is plenty more to see for those who are in- terested in local history. Ar- chivist Dorothy Cox, assis- Clinton at Dresden Raceway last week.

About 29 people in all have been involved in the past year's work. The main project over the winter was the preparation of the scrapbooks containing newspaper clippings. There are 27 different scrapbooks ready for public viewing and they cover such categories as; Rambling With Lucy; Arthur Ford and other col- umnists; births, deaths, marriages and anniver- saries; the old schools; chur- ches; municipal council; and other organizations such as the Agricultural Society and the Pioneer Park Association. Since the archives were moved to their present loca- tion in 1977, numerous other items have been donated and many other documents and such have been prepared for viewing. There are photo albums, an alphabetical list of 'the interments in the Bayfield Cemetery, old Bayfield furniture, a number of historical items from the Jess Metcalf home, hotel registers from the Albion and Old Ritz dating back to the early 1900's and a large collection of old school books, to name a few. A large number of books were donated by Mrs. Claire (Jackson) McLeod in 1979. Furnishings include the old desk from the Orange Lodge Hall in the village. For those that have the time to sit down and listen, tape recordings of all the presen- tations at the Historical Society meetings over the past 2-3 years are available. The archives people are in- terested in obtaining .,books (by Canadian authors and published in Canada), old papers and documents, let- ters, family trees, newspaper clippings or scrapbooks prior to 1955 and photographs. Archivist Dorothy Cox reminds people that' have old photos in their possession that they should identify them, le: people, place and a prox- date, so that future generations will also have the information and it will not be lost. The main project facing the com- mittees again this fall will be the scrapbooks although time will be spent ensuring the proper protection ( against the ravages of time) of the materials already on hand. Another ex- citing project will be the preparation of the Lucy ( Woods) Diehl papers which could take several years to complete. If you have time on your hands, the Archives Room in front of the Bayfield Library is well worth a visit. The summer hours (July and August I are as follows: Mon- day, 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., Wednesday, 2 p.m to 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday, 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. The remainder of the year the room is open only on Tuesdays from, 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. except by special appointment.

TO Ti tip. ;ooi) I often hear the lament that -it is impossible to find good craftsmanship nowadays. The same complaint has been made in all- ages—before and including even the Re- naissance. It was not true then, and it's not tnie now. Difficult, yes. But the best of anything has never been easy to produce or to find. It requires commitment on the part of craftsmen, and informed taste on the part of patrons, to demand and appreciate the finest in buildings, furniture, or what- ever else we use in our homes. It must also be remembered that only the best from past ages tends to survive, while we see both the good and the bad of our own time all around us. The range we have to choose from today has never been approached at any time in history. It gives us a unique opportunity to gain perspective as we sift through the possibilities. Finding the best has always been a challenge—and,for a few, its rewards are worth the effort. /it i Ififlni11J111t;n 1/U1/111 Exclusive • Fabrics Wal lcoverings Furniture • Art & Accents SHOWROOM 128 Albert Street.
