Pupils and ex -pupils, -teachers and ex -teachers flocked to their rural alma mater. The school .section is well named No, 1, and shall live in history. A fair guess comma - led the number at 2,000, more or less. The programs staged were varied, in- teresting and instructive. From the big parade early in the afternoon to the close of the dance well after mid- night, the enjoyment did not lag. The papular president, Mr. John Grant, and- efficient secretary, _Miss 'Christina Dickson, must •hare felt elated as they guided the various committees to car- ry out so vast an enterprise to so suc- cessful a close. Perhaps the highest enjoyment of the older people was -the warm and hearty handshake of those u'ho had gone to school and. •played together in the old grounds and had not met •for thirty, forty or, even fifty years. Childhood and youth had grown and moved away and now returned as men and women of mature age to greet each other at 'the old place, many of them full of years and of honor. The speech mak- ing part of the programe was no dotibt• of a high calibre but was en- joyed n by few as the dt11 and' noise db l C 'p e ] s m•cicnted hearing. g Mr. Uri* Mc - 'Fadden, of Sault Ste.

The girls put up a magnificent ,game. The horse shoe honors were captured 'by Wingham, Mount Forest Pipe Band in she afternoon supplied excellent • music and entertainment. The enter- • `amn1et1 in the evening put on by, the Jes -e McGregor Company of Teton - .:o was pleasing to all.
