THE HURON COUNTY COUNCIL �
AT PLAY
•
"What is so rare as a day in June?x
-
Then, if ever, coulee perfect days."
So said the poet years ago, and the " plc
Huron county copped had a perfect
realization of the truthfulness of the
poet's couplet on Friday last when
over two-thirds of the -present council
many ex -members, the .Warden and
seven ex -Wardens and many friends
spent a jolly day of recreation at
Jewettt's picnic -grounds at Bayfield.
It was in every sense a reunion day
of the old boys of the present and
past counefis of the historic county
of Huron. •
The old county stands in the fore-
front of the counties of Ontario in
nearly every respect, and in no sense
more so than in the splendid men who
have in the past graced the council
board; and the present occupants are
worthy sons of a long line of worthy
sires. The old county occupies a
unique position in the production of
prominent men in all walks of life,
for no matter in what part of the
world you, coat your lot you will find
the men of Huron occupying foremost
positions of trust and honor.
Last Friday at Bayfield was gather-
ed together a splendid array of the
past and present directors of muni-
cipal affairs of the county. The
weather was ideal, the picnickers all
good-humored, and the eatables more
than ample. The good ladies had been
asked to bring full baskets, and they
were brought more than full of .the
choicest edibles that skill and good
taste could produce.
A long list of sports was carried out
with the best of good humor, all enter-
ing into them with that spirit of
comradeship characteristic of the
councils of Huron. In the baseball
and football matches there were many
examples of good team play and in-
dividual work that showed that the
majority of the boys had without
doubt figured prominently in a home
club nut many years back. The same
may be said of the tug-of-war, where
good generalship and staying powers
were in evidence. Much of the credit
of the success of these three events
was no doubt due to the many excel-
lent decisions and good judgment dis-
played in handling these games by
the umpire, CountyTreasurer Lane,
P
whose•fair play appealed to all and
kept the spectators in good humor.
One football kicker took the umpire
for the goal and knocked his pipe
galley -west
The most amusing feature of thr
programme was a neeite race, in
which seven of the ladies with part-
ners took part. This was won by
Mrs. and Mr. 11. M. Elliott. of Stan-
ley; Mrs. J. M. Govenlock, of Mc-
Killop; and Mr. Klapp, of Hay, and
Mrs. McGregor and Mr. McCully, of
Tuckersmith, the ladies receiving the
first,' second and third prizes in the
order named.
County Clerk Holman acted as clerk
of the sports and introduced the
different events. At the conclusion
t
f the gu cs thepicnickers
were as-
sembled and brief addresses were
given by the ex -Wardens, the present
Warden, t'wo of the ex -councillors,
Mr. John Laporte and Mr. W. H.
Fraser, and County Treasurer Lane.
These addresses proved not the least
of the attractions of the day and
showed that if some of the ex -War-
dens considered themselves too old
for the more strenuous games they
had not lost much of the vigor of
youth in mental capacity.
It was at this stage that the only
signs of disagreement were displayed,
for each Warden persisted in claiming
that he had had the good fortune of
presiding over the best -looking, and
brainest bunch of men that ever sat
at the council table. But this was the
only point of difference -all agreed
that the picnic was a delightful re-
union idea and should by all means
be continued and its annual occurr-
ence would be looked forward to as
one of the bright events of the year.
Below is given a list of most of

`FRIDAY, atty.
THE HURON COUNTY COUNCIL �
AT PLAY
•
"What is so rare as a day in June?x
-
Then, if ever, coulee perfect days."
So said the poet years ago, and the " plc
Huron county copped had a perfect
realization of the truthfulness of the
poet's couplet on Friday last when
over two-thirds of the -present council
many ex -members, the .Warden and
seven ex -Wardens and many friends
spent a jolly day of recreation at
Jewettt's picnic -grounds at Bayfield.
It was in every sense a reunion day
of the old boys of the present and
past counefis of the historic county
of Huron. •
The old county stands in the fore-
front of the counties of Ontario in
nearly every respect, and in no sense
more so than in the splendid men who
have in the past graced the council
board; and the present occupants are
worthy sons of a long line of worthy
sires. The old county occupies a
unique position in the production of
prominent men in all walks of life,
for no matter in what part of the
world you, coat your lot you will find
the men of Huron occupying foremost
positions of trust and honor.
Last Friday at Bayfield was gather-
ed together a splendid array of the
past and present directors of muni-
cipal affairs of the county. The
weather was ideal, the picnickers all
good-humored, and the eatables more
than ample. The good ladies had been
asked to bring full baskets, and they
were brought more than full of .the
choicest edibles that skill and good
taste could produce.
A long list of sports was carried out
with the best of good humor, all enter-
ing into them with that spirit of
comradeship characteristic of the
councils of Huron. In the baseball
and football matches there were many
examples of good team play and in-
dividual work that showed that the
majority of the boys had without
doubt figured prominently in a home
club nut many years back. The same
may be said of the tug-of-war, where
good generalship and staying powers
were in evidence. Much of the credit
of the success of these three events
was no doubt due to the many excel-
lent decisions and good judgment dis-
played in handling these games by
the umpire, CountyTreasurer Lane,
P
whose•fair play appealed to all and
kept the spectators in good humor.
One football kicker took the umpire
for the goal and knocked his pipe
galley -west
The most amusing feature of thr
programme was a neeite race, in
which seven of the ladies with part-
ners took part. This was won by
Mrs. and Mr. 11. M. Elliott. of Stan-
ley; Mrs. J. M. Govenlock, of Mc-
Killop; and Mr. Klapp, of Hay, and
Mrs. McGregor and Mr. McCully, of
Tuckersmith, the ladies receiving the
first,' second and third prizes in the
order named.
County Clerk Holman acted as clerk
of the sports and introduced the
different events. At the conclusion
t
f the gu cs thepicnickers
were as-
sembled and brief addresses were
given by the ex -Wardens, the present
Warden, t'wo of the ex -councillors,
Mr. John Laporte and Mr. W. H.
Fraser, and County Treasurer Lane.
These addresses proved not the least
of the attractions of the day and
showed that if some of the ex -War-
dens considered themselves too old
for the more strenuous games they
had not lost much of the vigor of
youth in mental capacity.
It was at this stage that the only
signs of disagreement were displayed,
for each Warden persisted in claiming
that he had had the good fortune of
presiding over the best -looking, and
brainest bunch of men that ever sat
at the council table. But this was the
only point of difference -all agreed
that the picnic was a delightful re-
union idea and should by all means
be continued and its annual occurr-
ence would be looked forward to as
one of the bright events of the year.
Below is given a list of most of
