COUNTY DADS ENJOY PICNIC.
Huron County council and county
officials foregathered at Bayfield on
Friday afternoon last, not on busi-
ness intent this time but purposely
to spend a social afternoon. •And, so
we are assured by those who were
there, so successful did the gathering
prove that it was suggested that the
affair be an annual one.
The members of the county parlia-
ment were accompanied by their
wives and in many cases members of
their families also, 'and a happy
group was the result. The afternoon
was givan up to sports of various
kinds and during its course Mr, G.
W. Holman the genial clerk, and his
bride were presented with a pair of
very handsome upholstered chairs,
An appreciative and congratulatory
address was read by Reeve Laporte
of Hay and the presentation was
made by Reeve Tipling of Wingham.
Mr. Holman made reply in his own
well-known style, heartily thanking
his friends for their kind words and
handsome gift. All the members of
the council with the exception of six
were present, Ex -reeves Cantelon and
Ford of Clinton were guests.
SECOND DAY OF CHAUTAUQUA..
"Pamahasika" has for the last
quarter of a century been the syn-'
onym for the most remarkable
achievements in the line of bird and
animal training. He has produced
the greatest troop of educated birds
the world has ever seen. His trained
birds are a very special feature and
will appear on the evening of July
14th.
One must not get the impression
that this is merely a vaudeville turn,
for • it is an entertainment of large
proportion occupying the entire ev-
ening, and will prove of intense in-
terest to both children and grown-
ups. In connection with the enter-
tainment, Professor Pamahasika will
give a demonstrating lecture enlight-
ening his auditors upon the methods
of bird and animal training, ill which
he will show the erroneousness of
the opinion that this training is the
result of force and cruelty, but rather
of the utmost kindness.
One of the best known women of
Canada is Miss Constance Boulton of
Toronto, who will lecture the second
day, July 14th. She is known as a
lecturer throughout Canada. She
has been especially chosen to speak
to Chautauqua audiences this year,
and more especially to those interest-
ed in the development of Canadian
Womanhood, upon the subject of the
Place of Canadian Women in the
World of Today. There is no one
better able to handle the subject in
satisfactory way than Miss Con-
stance Boulton.
"Miss Boulton is of highest char-
cter and extraordinary gifts as a
public speaker", -Hon, H. J. Cody.
"She is one of our most represent-
ative women. She has always taken
he deepest interest in social and
public affairs, and is a most elo-
uent and able speaker." -Hon. Sir
homes White:'
Miss Boulton ton did much recruiting
vork during the war,

SURPRISED HIMSELF,
Mr.' W. 11, Hellyar was in Toron-
to last week attending the annual
convention of jewelers and, we take
this as a proof that jewelers. are
much the same as other people, they
spent one clay picnicking at Centre
I land enjoying the r
s J Y g breezes of Lake
Ontario and havinjg a nice
sociable time together. They
had probably decided : on
several price advances before this.'
Among other amusements indulged
in at this social gathering they had
a foot race and our townsman, Mr.
Hellyar, crossed •the rope first and
carried off first prize, a handsome
watch chain. Mr. Hellyar was him-
self 'rather surprised when be was
awarded the prize and when the news
reached his home his eldest son was
heard to remark: "They must have
been a phoney bunch of runners; be-
lieve me, when Had got the prize."
So is a man sized up in his own
household.

SEATS FOR THE PARK,
Constable Welsh thinks it would
be a great convenience if a few
benches were placed in the Library
Park for the use of citizens during
the warns summer evenings. He says
people will congregate at the corners
and it becomes his duty to disperse
thein and there is nowhere for them
to go. If there- were a few park
seats it would be a great convenience
on band nights g is or on any pleasant
evening, where people could sit and
'Chat, enjoy the evening breezes and
watch the fountain splashing.

the providence of God you are about
to leave us for sexviee in another por-
tion of God's Vieyard, we feel
that as a congregation we cannot let
you go without expressing to you our
sorrow at your departure, and also
,some measure of the regard and es-
teem we as a church hold for you.
As you will soon be passing out to a
new charge with all' its new associa-
tions,
ssociations, we cannot but with pleasure
recall the two years we have spent to-
gether in church and social life. We
have ever found you kindly of heart
and hand,ready to sym
pathize, to
rejoice with us to aid us by wise
counsel and advice, and to encourage
us by true piety. While there have
been many discouragements perhaps
in your work here, we trust that there
also are bright places, which in the'
coining yours you will look back up-
on and realize that your labors in
Bayfield were not in vain. We feel
