SUNDAY DECORATION PAY
Sunday last was decoration day for
the :Veteransethe Qdcl Fellows and the
Orangemen of Clinton and e large
turnout ..of all three, together with
hundreds of citizens of town and vicin_;.
ity took part in or witnessed the cet•e-
mony,
The
three
organizations met in
their
several c rooms: and marched to
the postern/ie. square, :headed by the
lail'tio band in uniform, At the square
they divided, marching in signle file
around the square and meeting under
the niemerial tablelt in the front of
the nos toli2c
e. Col; of Com
was as i
I2
command of the veterans who in
civilian clothes but wearing their de-
cimations • and rib -bees. were were in ad-
vance, and when they reached the
tablet Co). Combe, accompainiec] by
Mr. David Cantelon advanced,- the
former bearing a handspme wreath of
purple and white asters. This he
handed to Mr. Cantelon, whose'two
sons are represented 'on the tablet,
who placed ]i below the tablet, and,
while
a'
lute
ads were bowed or: bared
P`. IVluteh sounded the : "Last Post.
Col, Confbe 'then spoke .briefly, He
spoke of the splendid' freedom in
which Canadians live and said ,that
the young men represented 'ay the
names on the tablet just reverently
decorated had died that this freedom
might be retained. I3e recalled the
words •of'the Roman Centerline to .St,
Paul when he claimed Roman citizen-
ship, "With a great sum obtained I
this freedom" "At a great price,"
declared Col: Combe, the citizens of
Clinton have their freedom today,
the price of the lives of many of
the best, men of the land," For this
reason,, the speaker, thought we,
should, prize our privileges and hon-
our -the memory of those whose lives
had been laid "down indefence of
those things we hold -dear.
After a selection from the band
the procession reversed and marched
to the 'cemetery, followed'1by hundreds
of people in -cars, vehicles and afoot.
Arrived there a program was gone
through, the Rev: A. Macfarlane of
Bayfield acting as ehau an reading•a
scripture lesson and leading in pray-
er. A couple of hymns 'were sung,
the people being supplied with printed
programs containing the hymns. Then
the address was given by the Rev. A.
A. Holmes, pastor of Wesley church;
who spoke of the debt we owe to
those who went overseas to stem.the
power of the enemy and of the bene-
fit 'to the living ofa reverent re=
membranae of -the dead; as shown by
the gathering of the day. At the
conclusion of the address time was
given for the different societies .to
decorate the graves of their dead; af-
ter which they formed in procession
and marched back to -town. •

HAD RIBS BROIK:E,N
Mr, Robert Fitzsimons - is laid up
these days with atcouple of broken
ribs, the result of the playfulness of
a hoose he was deriding -He had his
horse, the one which delivers steak,
and chops to the carious customers
of the firm in town, 012 a halted when
the animal got frisky and kicking out
caught Marg Fitzsimons in ,the ribs. It
was fortunate the. ambient :did not
result more seriouslyand it is hoped
the patient will be soon bo his own
main. again.
A -SUGGESTION
Onehi
t nb the would like to sug-
gest to the town council is that the
part of the cemetery Ictidwn as, "Tie
Potter's Field" might be'kepta little
neater. The grass, at least, ° might
be cut, the stones might be set eip
and wooden starkers might be placed'
at the graves which have none.
'Twould add much • to the appear
avec"' of the place and would reflect
credit upon the town. Some way may
be
worked out for this to 1?e dope,
so marked an improvement has been
made in the appearance of the ceme-
tery that it rather seems a pity that'
this blotch should belea to mar its
beauty,
