which saw the arranging of sev-

In a money -raising project plaits
were made for a chicken barbeque
to be held on June 11 at the fair
grounds in Seaforth. The event,
which will be open to the public,
will include a program and a
dance.
The possibilities of chartering a
train to Toronto .July 19 for 4-H
Club members and leaders was
discussed. The tour would be of
an educational nature --with visits
being made to the Parliament
Buildings and industrial centres
relating to agriculture.
Leaders decided to purchase a
new type of sweater, of lighter
weight, for club -menibers.
"A leader is not one who
achieves by his own personal
powers, but one who inspires
those whom he is leading to
achievement"—so said Padre W.
A. Young, of the Ontario/ Agricul-
tural College, Guelph, wlio was the
principal speaker at the school.
Padre Young told the leaders that
harmony and high morale is the
result of good leadership.
"A leader's success is measur-
ed by his influence on the minds
and lives of others," said the
speaker.
Qualities of Ieadership, as de-
fined by the speaker, included
"self - knowledge, self - reverence
and self-control."
On the other hand, he explain-
ed that secrets of failure are per-
sonal vanity, belittling of others,
bullying and the state of mind.
"Small men waste' their time
looking for big opportunities—big
men take every small opportunity
as it comes," continued the
speaker.
He told the Leaders that "we
should strive to be, every day,
just what we want people to think
we are on that day:"
"No contribution you will -ever
make to your community will in
any way be comparable to your
having started some boy or girl
on the right road to becoming a
u9eful effective citizen," he' con,
chided.
McIntosh, forwarded the names of
a number of former residents, to
make certain that they would be
told the good news about the Re-
union.
$
Mr. and Mrs. John McKenzie,
909 Bufferin Ave., Wallaceburg,
are looking forward to the Sea -
forth Reunion, and said that they
expect to attend on several of the
days.
Mrs. G. A. Phillips, 19 Belview
Ave., Hamilton, Ont., the former
Christine Henderson, is looking
forward to the reunion and says:
"I am planning to come and some
of my family as well. I haven't
been in Seaforth for some time,
but would not miss coming to the
Reunion. If there is anything I
can do; please drop me a line."
Mrs. Phillips went on to say that
her mother would love to come,
but as she is 94 years of age this
year it is not felt that a trip
would be possible.
Dr. G. A. Stewart, Belleville, son
of the late George Stewart, for-
merly of the Seaforth Flour Mill,
said that he was sorry he would
miss the Reunion, since he and his
wife were spending the summer
in Europe.
Fred Twiss, of 119 Erie Ave.,
Brantford, was a Seaforth resi-
dent for many years and his ack-
nowledgment said: "I will be
glad to spend a week in my home
town, as I often think of the good
times I had. I am going to write
Roy Dungey for reservations for
a week."
George Daly, a well-known Sea -
forth Old Boy, who looks after art
work at The Robert Simpson Co.,
Toronto, has designed a drawing
for use of Reunion advertising,
which appears at the top of this
{column. He is assisting in round-
ing up a Toronto delegation, ready
for the big days — July 30 to
August 3.
While names are continuing to
come into the invitation commit-
tee almost daily, chairman of the
invitation committee, Hazel Reid,
says that she feels there are a
number of former residents who
have not yet been contacted. The
committee urges that all in town
and througbout the district for-
ward the names of any who lived
here at one time, so that they may
be told of the plans which are be-
ing made for the Reunion celebra-
tion — July 30 - August 3. Some-
times there is a hesitation because
it is fglt that names might already
have been submitted, but mere
need be no fear In tug eonnectjon,
Miss Retd said, since the system
which bas been established elim-
inates any duplications.
