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.
