Also the many bud- dies who, were employed like my- self and have drifted away to other lands seeking a more prom- ising future. A few of them still remain in this neighbourhood while others have passed on to the far beyond. After a few moments we left the scene With .only visionary im- aginations to greet our departure. We .then continued :on the new road to the lake bank, where those many years ago men had been employed in building a hill on the slant of the bank.

Old Landmark Sold Locally; To e Torn Down One of the oldest buildings in Zurich., ,the .former Zimmerman estate, was sold last Wednesday afternoon to Norman Gascho, who intends having the old home torn down. Sale price of the building and the land, which was disposed of by public auction, was $840. According to Mr. Gascho, he will sell the building, to have it tone down as soon as passible. Old-timers in the village say the old ,property was at one time a hotel, :although no one is too sure whether it was once used for that purpose ,or not. However, it has been reported the house is at least 125 year's old. When the old building is torn a- way the location is an ideal sport for a new home. At the present time Mr. Gascho has not said as to whither or not he will sell the land after it has been cleaned up. In all there are approximately four acres to the whole property.

TIEMAM'S CEDAR GROVE BAY'F1ELD Sunday Special THIS WEEKEND FRIED CHICKEN and SPARERIBS Mr. and Mrs. Morris Denomme, Dashwood, were Sunday visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Jack MnKewon of the St. Joseph district. A July Stroll Recently yours truly accompan- ied by his son Cyrille took a little stroll on tiie grounds of St. Joseph The starting point was from Highway 21 and going in a westerly direction towards the lake on a new road opened in the :fall of 1896. That was the first work started for the newly surveyed city by the found- er N. M. Cantin. Mr. Oantin was then a young man of 26 years of age, with a great foresight, flourishing ideas, and great ambi- tion to accomplish his plans. We continued on to about mid- way to the lake, and then stopped, looking .towards •the south where once stood a saw and ,planing mill where the necessary lumber was cut, dressed and fitted for build- ing purposes. Across the gully was a water darn built to supply the water for the mil:L On the north side of the gully a boarding house was built to accom:adate the 120 men who were employed there.

Turkheim PHONE 174 — ZURICH deteriorated by the weather which had played its role, such as wash outs, growing shrubs, etc. The 'hill was much in use the first years of the founding of St. Joseph. Material was hauled up from the beach, such as sand,. stone and at times when 1urber was shipped in for building purp- oses. All .of the cartage was not as to=day, ,by pick-up or dump truck, but was done by horse power and all of that material was hauled up and delivered on dif- ferent surveyed lots throughout the intended city. At times as many as 30 teams were kept busy. Farmers from around and further points took advantage to work in spare time to earn a few dalliers. In the new roadway, the sawnvill, the boarding Mouse, and hill, I pictured many little inci- dents which had passed some gen-. erations ago, visualizing our move- ments, work and other little pranks played with my buddies. If permiissable I will come back next week to resume my little stroll.
