BAYFIELD The Exhibition of Curios -and Tea held in the Rectory on Saturday ea tet -noon under the auspices of the r Girls' Auxiliary of Trinity Church was not as well patronized as the girls had hoped it would be. To die - !play a large cct'.lection such as thil was, meant a great deal of work and :.it dies somewhat disappointing to the Members to find that there were not .more people interested in their •mss- -sionary work. Those who were pre - meet enjoyed it very tnuch. In the iearawing room four tables were eat and the girls, who looked picturesque in the different costumes, displayed 'the curios to those present.

The following from the Port Huron Times refers to an old Bayfield boy Mr. Blair' left Bayfield about thirty- two years ago and has since lived in Port Huron. He was a ,son of tho late Mr. and•Itl:rs. Samuel Blair o5 Bayfield: "In the unexpected death of Joseph W. Blair, of heart disease, at his home at 2849 ' Gratiot avenue, Nov 18, organized labor loses an able leader, and Port Huron labor a staunch friend and representative of extraordinary mental powers. Just who can fill his place as mentor, to whom the Grand Trunk shopmen may trust their difficulties for solu- tion is a question. Mr. Blair, at all times and in all conditions, possessed the courage of his convictions in matters politic and social, defending organized labor's in- terests collectively and individually. He succeeded as far as was practical in the efforts of any labor leader. great and small. Had he been leer+ faithful, less qualified, and less staunch, Joe Blair should have climb- ed high in politica cireles. For many years Mr. 'Blair was president of the Local Union of the Brotherhood of Railway Carmen of America, and of its Joint Protective Board was general chairman, and al- so served Port Huron labor as presi- dent of the Trades and Labor Colin, til. His home was headquarters foe the workingman seeking counsel for hampering problems, and his hand al- ways went out to a friend in need. Mr. Blair was in his 54th year when passing out. He leaves a wife and daughter, Mrs. Venue E. Cooper After an active and very useful life devoted to his fellow workers, his re- t t mains are laid to es in Lakeside ide cemetery. The body lay im state at the fam- ily residence, where hundreds of people paid their respect in silence."'
