Zurich Citizens News, 1965-11-18, Page 4PAGE FOUR ST. JOSEPH and DRYSDALE AL.. FRED DUCHARMECorreevondentl, On Sunday last a very enjoy- able day was spent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Philip Masse, of the Bronson Line, who celebrated their 54th wed- ding anniversary. To take part, their children were present at a dinner in Zurich. Mr, and Mrs. Fred Siemon were also in their company. In the evening Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Masse and his company, of London; Mr. and Mrs. Philip Masse, the parents, and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Siemon were at the home of Isidore and Mrs. Josephine Du- charme, where Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Jeffrey and their son Philip and his wife, of Goder- ich. were present. We congrat- ulate Mr. and 'ITrs. Masse on their 34th wedding anniversary and hope that they may enjoy more of there and also that they enjoy the best of health for 711th future occasions. In this article we bring back motr,ories cif 05 year,; ago, when I and my pal. both in our early tea unties, had left St. Joseph on the 24th of September, the year 1900. to enter into the lumber camps to pass the winter, in Millersburg, Michigan. When referring to I and my pal, we are referring to yours truly and a lifelong friend of this com- munity, by name of Frank Char- rette. who was killed by a fal- Ing tree the same year. (In a further issue, if permitted, will give you details and cause.) We travelled from Parkhill to Port Huron by train and from that port, by passenger boat to Alpena, a seaport at the head of Lake Huron, The sail- ing was nice, except the cross- ing of Saquias Bay, which has never a calm water. After nearly two days and two nights we arrived at our destination in the lumbering town of Al- pena, which was the head quar- ters of lumbering companies and where lumberjacks would seek work for the winter. We remained in that town for a few days. There we were advised to travel to Millersburg a new lumbering town. It was then near the opening date of bush camps and we wanted to be near, Before work started we had 10 or 12 days, so we de- cided to go seven miles out of town, to a cedar swamp where a contractor by name of Deros- ier had a large contract to eut down cedar poles for a tele- graph company, The working conditions in the swamp were not favorable so we stayed there only seven days, which was plenty long enough, for since it was early in the fall, swamp flies, which are quite large, would keep hopping on you all day and once in a while would give you a deep sting. In the evening mosquitos played their role to make life miserable. Working in the swamp is always dis- agreeable especially in winter, when snow would lodge on the limbs of the trees, a foot thin, hut would loosen up when chop- ping down the largo trees, c:tv. ering a person up with cold or ometimos wet snow. After seven days of boggy work, wo returu.'d to the village of Mi11- ersbnr s. After a few days of waiting we had engaged for winter work with E. C. Lewis, sole member of the company. Our work was close to the village, also to our I boarding house which was on the main street of the village. There were bunking rooms in the new quarters for 28 men and with the exception of four all were strangers to us. They were all of a generous nature, and as it is with lumber jacks, all were willing to share to- gether the lonely hours spent in bush camps and as well the joy, which can be created from shanty life. 0 Mr. Les Gates and sister Ida, of Chicago, were visitors with their cousins, Mr. and Mrs. Milne Rader, during the past week. Mr. and Mrs. Ferd Haberer spent the week -end with .their daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs• Arnie Meyer, London.l Mr. Jerome Sweeney is a pa -'I tient in Victoria Hospital, Lon-! don. JESUS CHRIST IS LORD ! In the begining...God created the heaven and the earth. Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; And the spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters. And God said: Let there be light and there was Tight. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light day and the darkness He called night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day. Glory to God on High and on earth peace to men of good will.

ALBERT HESS Jeweller and Optician ed out that while the local or- ganization remained non-polit- ical during the election cam- paign, it should certainly be most proud now to be able to say that the Huron member be- longs to the organization.

He added that since the election is now over, it is his duty to go on and get things done for Hur- on County.
