NEWS, OF BAYFIELD 14.„ was a glories 12th of July at Bayfield TIturadiy last. The sun shone on almost 2,000 Inembers of the Loyal Orange Association from Huron, Perth and Bruce Counties as they "walked" to celebrate the win- ning of the Battle of the Beene .and the 100th anniversary of the Bayfield Loyal Orange Lodge Nee 24. ' For 100 years Bayfield has been a :citadel for Orangemep, and ThursdaY every Orangeman from all the coun- try around. turned out with his wife, family and friends to stage an unfor- gettable demonstration. It was the biggest "walk" ever'held in Bayfield, according to Frank Elliott, age 81, who attended his firt Bayilejd "walk" clinging to his mother's hand 75 years age. Watched by an estimated 10,000 visitors,. the parade, with its .banners and standards,'brilliant in orange and nine, took alniost an hour to pass a given point on the great walk from the assembly point at the agricultur- al grounds, tq the Clan Gregor Square in the centre of the town. Thirty lodges from as far away as Listowel, led by the Luckuow Pipe Band, marched to the tune of fife and drum. Prominent Orangemen gathered at the speakers' tand, and many were the speeches of welcome and tribute to the glory of King 'William. "Equal rights to all.• and special privileges to none," was 'the keynote of the speech of welcome by the chairman of the day, the county master of the Orange lodges of Huron, H. Mervyn Hanley, of Clinton. For Thomas Appleton, of the Exeter Lodge, it was the 66th time he had "walked" on -the glorious 12th, and for Thomas Culvert, of Dungannon, it was the 72nd time. Mr. Culvert and Mr. Appleton are both 90 years of age, and both are hale and hearty. They were thatwo oldest Orangemen present, at the gathering. Both shar- ed the prize, because they had mall their recollection each only missed one "walk" on the -12th, and that due ^to illness. The Late D. C.

Our bowling club is no excep- tion. There are, quite a number who were born in Seaforth, but the ma- jority came from other parts. Pick- ing,at random we might mention last year's Soole trophy winters, Lorne. Dale, Charles Barber and Jim •Mac- Donald. Not, one was born in Sea - forth. Take for example, Jim, Mac- Donald, the doughboy from Cuirass. His birthplace, Culross, is a township oxi the outskirts of .Teeaveatet;" 'a land of 'pleasant rolliug fardiS and cle4r cool streams. It was inhabited by men from the foothills of Scotland with a strong birr en their tongues. Jim inherited a slight birr . . .-a birr that lends enchantment to that Tees - water drawl.
