ELLIOTT PICNIC
The sixth annual rienic of the des-
cendants of John and Elizabeth El-
liott was held in Goderich on July
5th, with a good attondanee, although
some of the regulars were unavoid-
ably absent. The festivities started
with dinner and continued with a
full program. In addition to the usual
races and games for the younger ones
there were some for adults. As a
result of one of these severalof the
women will be free to let their fancy
roam when buying their next hat.
The men designed and ' modelled a
lady's hat, with Howard Cox winning
high honors. It might be disclosing
information useful to the enemy to
publish a description of this and most
of the others, as they all were char-
acterized by .special adaptibility to
"go off". The one exception might
have been intended for a copy of fur
crown and fabric brim, but if so the
crown was a bit shop worn. Perhans
next year Sam will have a crown in
his hat. In the nail driving contest
Mrs. R. G. Thompson swung a wicked
right. Dorothy believes in using the
heel of her shoe. Mary Thompson
went to town in kicking the slipper,
we wonder if she might be practising
for a place on the forward line of the
Western Mustangs: Will Stewart
sprinted down the home stretch in the
fat man's race like a professional
In the special awards, Mrs. M. Reid,
Varna, was the oldest person present
and Ralph Harrison, was the Young-
est, being the infant son of Peter and
and Mrs, }larri'soi. Mrs. Will Mair
came the longest distance. There
were four weddings in the clan last
year, four births to record and one
death, Lorne J. Elliott of Winnipeg.
A,t the business meeting Leslie Cox
was elected. President, J. E. Hornwell,
secretary, for the sixth term. Mrs.
R. G. Thompson, treasurer and sports
ceeveror and Mrs, Wilmer Reid social
hostess. The picnic will be held in
Bayfield on July 4th, next year, sup-

When election day comes we will

One citizen has a receipt that he paid

BACK TO HURON
Back to Huron I have wandered--•
Back where Youth seems like a
dream;
From the best of friends was sunder-
ed,
Many a hamlet, road and stream.
Took the way my heart directed,
Like a dancing child with glee—
Huron is a name enchanted,
All the honors bring to thee!
Back among the maples, queenly,
Up the hills alt decked like thrones;
thrones;
Robins sing their notes serenely,
Brooklets murmur o'er the stones.
Nowhere is there found a copy—
Fertile fields and stately homes;
Tonic when the lake is choppy,
Charm where'er the Maitland
roams.
Back where morning comes too early,
And the golden day's too short,—
Hay-fields
horesHay-fields cut and raised so curly,
Wagons hauling loads like sport.
Here are men of iron -muscae,
Women proud of grit and tan;
Long as eye can see, they hustle
Keeping Duron in the van.
Back again -0 what a favor!
Every road is lined with joy;
Breakfast has the same old flavor,
Kindly faces, grace employ.
All too short the fleeting hoars—
Merely time to wave a hand;
Shed a tear upon the flowers,
Where a new grave breaks the
sand.
—An old Belgrave Boy— Austin L.
Budge, Hamilton.
