As there were. many young families growing up the list of pupils attending increased and in a very few years as many as 125 pupils' mantes were on the roll. In this 20th century the;, population de- . creased until not over 25 were of school age in, the section. In 1876 a commodious 'frame' school was 'built on the site o the Harrison farm, one quarter mile east of the log school, and away from the "big creek." This building was used until 1914, when the present red brick building was er- ected back on the first site which was enlarged at this -time. Partly the rea- son of returning was the fact that Bel- grave section had been formed which took some of the eastern part of the original 'No.' 13. Other. teachers who taught in the log school were: Geo. Wightman, Miss Churchill, Mrs. Spence, Miss 'Oliver, Miss McGill, Miss McGaw, Sara, Bone.

The ones who had come, from far away points were thanked for their presence and messages. Mrs. Robt. Lapsley, of Vancouver, B.C., Mrs. Belle Dougdll of Elgin, Man., who addressed the gathering, were a few of the real far -away ones who came back for the great 'day.

The Hurons ended their first Bruce League season by, losing to Chesley in the Colts' ..,home corral last Wednes- day and it' can be hardly said that they finished in a blaze of glory. The Hur- ons collected thirteen hits, including ,two triples by Somers and one by Groves (and what a triple), but nine errors afield, not counting .'several passed balls and wild pitches, over- balanced their hitting attack The Colts also garnered thirteen blows off the, Indian pitching, including two homers, one a legitimate wallop by. aggressive little Sandy: Thompson and a gift one by S. Peterson, Chesley first -baseman, who toured the sacks before Somers could put his dignity or pants together after falling over a four -foot drop on the edge of the race track on what should have been x fly- out. The only fielding feature of the day was a double play by the Braves, the;ball going from Bill Lediet to the 1st. 2ndand two Tiffin brothers, at After striking out the side in the first inning, roe Tiffin had a hard time getting the Colts out at all i'n the second, six runs crossing the plate.
