ADDRESS AND PRESENTATION
A very pleasant evening was spent
at the home of Mr, and Mrs. Jas.
Jas. Taylor last week, when the
young people of S. S. No. 5, Morris,
assembled together to show their ap-
preciation of Mrs. Taylor's valuable
services in 'assistng them with their
play, "Deacon Dubbs" which has
been so well received at the different
places in which it has been given..
An appropriate address was read by
Miss Edith Proctor, as follows;
"We the Deacon Dubb's Players
have gathered herethis evening to
show by our presence a little grati-
tude for the way in which you helped
us with our play. We take this op-
portunity of showing our apprecia-
tion of your patience, thoughtfulness
and kindness. You showed enough
interest in us to attend all our prac-
tices and to go with us from place to
place which was no easy task.
We ask you too accept 'this Pyrex
Pie Dish not for its value but as a
slight reminder of the `Deacon Dubbs
Play.' A beautiful silver-plated pie
dish with pyrex lining was presented
to Mrs. Taylor by Mr. Roy Arm-
strong.
"Mrs. Taylor, although; completely
taken by surprise, in a few well-chosen
'words made a neat reply, thanking
the young people for the beautiful
gift and their thoughtfulness. She
had enjoyed so much their practices
together and had found it both a
pleasure and profit in workingwith
them. It was• splendid to see them
so joyous and happy and.io see the
good will shown by everyone."
The evening1 was spent in games
and music after which a dainty lunch
was served.
After all joining hands and sing-
ing "They are Jolly Good Fellows,"
and "Should Auld Acquaintance . be
Forgot" the very pleasant evening
was brought to a close.

..Graydon Re -Union
Graydon Re-Tnion at Streetsville,
Ont., was the scene on Saturday,
June lith„ of a very interesting event
in the first re -union of the Graydon
family, which was one of the early
families to settle in that part of On-
tario. The committee who had char-
ge of the arrangeinentsa in hand
consisted of Go lon of Toronto, }lec-
tor of Streetsville and Mervin Gray-
don of New Toronto.
Owing to somewhat 'unfavourable
weather conditions the full /program
as planned could not be carried out.
But the spacious Ocldfellows Hall was
secured and presented a beautiful si-
ght with flower decked tables and
stage scenery as a background.
The guests began to arrive by
train and motor shortly after noon
and when the late arrivals had regist-
ered it was found that over 500 were
in attendance. Relatives from Tor-
onto, Lucknow, Brampton, Kitchener,
Oakville; Cochrane, New York and
South Rivers being present,
After partaking of • the splendid
supper, a program of music, com-
munity singing, led. by Hector Gray-
don and Dorothy and speeches were
carried out. Much credit for the suc-
cess of the event is due to the com-
mittee who worked so hard in trac-
ing the different branches of the fa-
mily and getting thein together, The
days proceedings were brought to a
close by a jolly old dance.
On motion by Mr. Wm. Graydon of
Toronto thesame coinnlittee was
again named to have charge of the.
next Re -union which has been definite-
ly decided to be held in 3 years and
each succeeding 3 years.
Mr. and Mrs, William T. Gardner
who came from Ireland to the town
of Streetsville, Ont, and moved to the
village of Lucknow, Ont. in the year
1852 with his three sons, John, Will-
iam and James and one slaughter,
Margaret, were amongst the early
and most esteemed pioneers of the.
Township of Aslifield, James of
Wiririipeg, Man., and Iviargaret now
Mrs. ,John Craig of Westfield are the
only survivors of this highly respect-
ed family, Mrs, William Gardiner
was formerly Miss Sarah Graydon
of Streetsville, Ont.

A TEN DAYS VISIT WITH UN-
CE SAM
We left Belgrave on Wednesday,
June 2nd. for Hamilton; going to Sea -
forth, Stratford and Kitchener and
arrived : at niy brother's, Rev. W. J,
Brandon, at* 5 p. m., Thursday at
8 ,o'clock a. in. my brother and his
wife, Mrs, Brandon and myself start-
ed on a motor trip, through Uncle
Sant's domain. We crossed the bor-
der at Niagara and had no difficulty
getting in the States. They asked us
very few questions and as we only in-
tended staying a short time, they did
not class us undesirables. We . drove
through part of New York :State,
along the outskirts of Buffalo , to
Williamsville and thence to Batavia,
a very beautiful city. On leaving Ba-
tavia, we motored to Mount Morris,
Bath, Painted Post and Lawrenceville
where we crossed the line into Penn-
sylvania and on to a pretty little town
called Blossbury. Arfter driving •252
miles we felt like a rest, so stayed ov-
er night in this town. -
On Friday at 9 a. m.' we left Bloss -
bury for Williamsport, a distance of
40 'miles, through a range of the Alle-
gany Mountains. It was mostly up
hill anddown, but always climbing,
until when about eight miles from
Blossbury, we reached what they,
claim is the highest altitude between
Buffalo' and New York, which is 2540
feet above sea level. • After getting.
over the peak, we had some fine coa-
sting, one place coasting for about
two miles -without any gas, at the rate
of thirty-five miles an hour, but don't
suppose we saved much gas, as' we
had to use more climbing up. The
scenery here is most magnificent with
just room for the road and mountains
towering on each side. We drove for
over 350 miles on the Susquehanna
trail and the winding curves certainly
gives you some thrill, as they are bo-
th short and steep. It is the most
perfect paved road I ever saw, one
can slide around the curves at 3o to
35 miles an hour and never feel your
car swing •or sway the least bit.
There is a steady . string of cars,
some going up, others going down,
but every one keeps his own side of
the white line. We reached Will-
iamsport all 0. K., a city with a popu-
lation of •65,00o. Our next objective
was Harrisburg, a distance -of 13o mil-
es from here, with a population of
75,000. On leaving Harrisburg we
headed for Lancaster another city with
a population of 6o,000 and our object-
ive when we left Belgrave. After a
drive of 442 miles in about a day, and
a half, we arrived at my nephew's and
were very kindly received by he and
his: wife, Mr. and Mrs. Grant D.
Brandon.
The crops along the _way were only
fair, in fact, no better than around
Belgrave, until we neared Harrisburg,
which is the county town of Lancas-
ter. Here we saw some of the finest
•fields of wheat, one could wish to see,
that part seemed to be •almost a mon-
th ahead of anything we had seen,
wheat in full head, Peas and potatoes,
in blossom,, cherries turning red, and
roses in: abundance.
It certainly looks to be a prosperous
farming district, with out buildings the
finest I ever saw. We found the
roads on the whole fine, after leaving
Mitchell -we were never off cement,
macadam or brick. I really believe
the Americans have the _Canadians
beat in making roads and they cer-
tainly use thein, for the traffic on
them is fierce hi all the cities and
towns.' If their • other laws are not
any better observed than their speed
limit, one would hate to live under
them, but -we found the people to be
very courteous and obliging in every
way. We crossed the Susquehanna
river in two places, where there were
toll bridges, one cement 25c per car,
the other wood at Ioc per car. They
were both more than twice the length
of the bridge at Niagara. After
spending a very pleasant' week we
commenced our journey homeward
with a few variations in the road, but
had no mishaps not even a puncture.
We arrived in Hamilton' on Saturday,
June 12th,; and soon reached "Home
Sweet Home."
A. Brandon.
NOTES AND COMMENTS
Walkerton chief of police has been
ordered to stop rowdyism in that town
and has been instructed to use
stern measures if necessary. It cer-
tainly
ertainly is a man's size job to keep the
modern youth down to where :a lot of
people think he should be.
The latest from the United States
is that Canada is selling "Bootleg," Or
uninspected milk to that country. Na-
turally, there is nothing in the char-
ge;; the United States Government is
but looking for an excuse to prohibit
its importation in competition with
the milk producer of that country.
Whether we like it or not, we must ad-
mit that the U. 8..A, is certainly cap-
able of looping after its own people,
something that a lot of other govern-
ments should give more attention to.
