At one time there were over 4,200 cars parked. The day began with a parade of cali- thunspians at 10,30 o'clock and Zurich brass band dispensed music for the whole of the day. Three dance halls were in full swing aft*Rnoon and even- ing two of them ibeing for the devotees of the old square dance, .411 did a thriv- ing business. Parkhill defeated Forest in a game of ball, witnessed by hundreds of fans from the hillside. The score was 8 to 5. Credit for the victory is given to Park - hill's hound artist, James Daubs. The midway attracted good patronage with its usual games of chance and skill. Picnickers from many counties spread their luncheons on the grass and'appar- ently everyone had an excellent outing. � - At Goderich Dominion Day was celebrated here with a large turnout of citizens, includ- ing many from outside points.

Bd. ward Kidd resigned the Conservative stronghold of Carelton county and Sir Robert was elected by acclamation for that riding in 1905. No better success greeted the party at the general election in his home riding in Halifax, andalso in his adopted riding at Carleton. Sir Rob ert chose to sit for Halifax. After ninny lean 'years Sir Robert and his party won in 1911. That election is too recent to require mucjt,explanation. Reciprocity plays 1.athef an important part in Sir Robert's life. He was born in 4854-a reciprocity year. He broke with Liberals on the issue in 1891, and went into power on that issue in 1911.
