There was a tent erected, wigwam for the magician and all the necessaries for a picnic, with flags flying and very beautiful scenery as a background making a very pretty sight. The married men vs. the single men start- ed the program with a Base Ball game Mr. Kirby acting as umpire. The benedicts started off good getting 5 runs in first innings while the singles had 2, It was a good game but the young fellows will have to spruce up a little or get married if they are go- ing to win out, as at the finish the score was 12 to 7 in favor of the mar- ried men. The next item was Bluevale ladies Base Ball vs. East Wawanosh ladies. This viae a good exhibition of Base Ball and was the event of the day. A good company from Bluevale ac- companied their teals and the other team had also lots of friends in the ring and as either side made a good hove the cheering was long and loud. Bluevale had the lead early in the ante and held it all through a gbut was hard chased in the last few innings. Score was 23 to 25 in fa0or of Blue - vale. While the games were going on there were many chances given to pass along some cash to the Red Cross Society and the people responded most cheerful. Three young ladies went around with an ear of corn soli- citing guesses as to ]tow many kernels wets on the cob, the persons guessing correctly got a prize. It was 5cts. to guess. Guesses were numerous and all the way from 200 to 1000. Wm. Love and h1r. Marshall tied on the correct number, 850. This contest made $9 30. A magician in a wigwam reading fortunes got $2 60. There were girls selling flags and flowers and a booth where refreshments could he got. Mr, Wilson, Toronto, who was visit- ing at C. McOtellatld's gave a prize for the most popular young lady and one for the men also, Any one spending 10 cents at the tont had one vote, Miss Idabel Johnson won the ladies prize while John Armstrong 18 the proud possessor of the other. A collection was taken up which a- mounted to $60.00. After the ladies ball game supper was served in picnic style, then the Blyth Foot Bali tears defeated the 4th line Morris team by 1 to 0. The day's proceedings brought in a little over $100.00 and the proposed Maple Leaf cot is in sight. The ladies of the Red Cross Society wish to express their sincere thanks to all who so kindly helped to make the day a success especially those who came so far to take part in the games.
