ALL ABOUT BAYFIELD INTERESTING HAPPENINGS IN ONTARIO'S PRETTIEST VILLAGE We will endeavour to settle down to putting a column toge- ther after spending the past three weeks holidaying and travelling. Part of our holiday was spent in Watrous, Saskat- chewan where we attended Walter's Golden Wedding Ann- iversary celebrations on Satur- day August 10. Our son and his wife, Rob and Sheryl Irwin accompanied us on our trip, along with our three young ones, Andrew, Luanne and Lyd- ia, who also took part in their grandparents anniversary as Junior attendants for the renew- al of Vows Service in Our Red- eemer's Lutheran Church, Wat- rous. This was followed by a family dinner for 43 in the church parlors and an Open Reception and Dance in the Royal Canadian Legion Hall in the evening. One of the high- lights of the celebration was the reunion of Mrs. Erickson's (Senior) sisters and brothers who had not been together for more than 45 years. More than 100 relatives attended from all over the Canadian West as well as the U.S.A. Also while in Watrous we called Mrs. Will Allin, the former Flossie Atwood of Bay- field. Her relatives and friends will be pleased to hear she is feeling well and still very interested in her old home town We asked her if she had any messages to send back to Bay- field and she said "Yes, tell all my relatives and friends to get out here to Watrous to visit me." For those who are interested in the grain crops in the west, we noticed that they did not look all that good. The grain is very short, not more than a foot'high, and the yield very poor in most sections; hence the straw will be at a premium this WIND UP SUMMER WITH THESE FOOD SAVING!

There has been so much rain in the west that the sloughs are full to overflowing. The mud hensa are in abundance, and one westerner told us they are absolutely no good for eating, and do not fly all summer. They fly into the sloughs in the spring and moult and when one slough dries up they walk to the next one. In the fall they have their feathers back and fly away. Whether this is a true story or not, the westerner surely sounded convincing.
