Into WVebb's patloie last night he
would have telt his blood tingle as
lie noted the spirit of pntrlotlem and
loyalty to the Union Jack that con.
tunes ago controlled the tomahawks
of the Iroquois still demonstrated, but
in a more developed and intellectual
Inanner, by the men who today call
themselves Hurons. He would have
sewn the first banquet of the Huron
Old Buys' association made one of
the most enjoyable and successful
reuulons in the history of "old boy"
entertnhuents. But he would have
been puzzled over the menu card.
lie would have been amazed at the
expressions of mingled Mirth and
expectation that lightened up the
faces of those present when they
read of Seatbrth mock turtle soup,

immense to Jilin and more so still
es be would have seen lips smacking
over a genuine llowlek plum -pud-
ding, made more acceptable by a
awretterhng of Tuckeramith sauce,
The old chief could not have
withstood the old.raehloned helping
of McKillop lemon pie, and when
tasting the lley and Grey ekes, the
Brussels nuts, the Colborne apples,
the Blyth grapes, the Turnherry
orangee and the Stanley peas, he
would have been convinned that
there was nothing Ilt to eat that did

ley ,peae thoughts were running
new back to the time when those
acne heads, then young and towey
and borne by bare feet, used to fol-
low tiny hands up the old russet
tree that stood in the corner where
the line fence separated the orchard
from the msrro•,v-fat pen patch, out
.of which those same skitehare feet
and tiny hands were often chased by
tho neighbor's enterprising collie.
But the old chief would have been
Wiest surprised by the frequent calls
fur raisins from Ashfield, from the
Jar northwest corner of the county,
away up there where centuries ago
Lake Huron dashed her waves
iimeitinetlhe breakers. The Itadian
thief would have wondered at all
these things, but would have been
satisfied by cooling Gla fevered
brow with Clinton leo cream and
Clearing his war-whooptng throat
with Uaborne coffee.
The toast list was in keeping with
the spirit of patriotism that is being
felt all over the Dumitdon.
"'The Army, Navy and Volute
Seers," proposed by Mr. D. Weis.
,uaiher and responded to by Dr. J, E.
Elliott, was received amid loud
cheers and the playing of "The
$MtIeh Grenadiers." Mr. Weismiller
spoke of the greatness of the British
ettrpire, of is power, and its great
gulp of the secrets of colinization.
The success that in the pant has
• . attended her ventures in that direo.
'don should, he thought, justify her
la .the stand she has taken in defend-
ing she Ult•lauders of the Transvaal,
Or, Elliott reviewed the war history
'hf Canada, dwelling upon the valor
'of her soldiers and volunteer., and
epneluding by expressing the wish
eihat, if needed, 10,000 men be sent
ao Squat Africa instead of 2,000.
Perhaps Use moment that will
remain longest in the memory of
the old hove was reached when Mr.
J. 8, Willison, as president, sub.
omitted for honorary membership of
the association the name of Lient-
Coi. Otter, who, as every inhabitant
.of Huron is proud to know, was born
In. the Township of Stanley, a few
miles south of the Town of Clinton.
Mr. Whitson 'poke humorously of
'Ile own early days of difloulty on a
• Heron farm, and seriously of the
advantages of an early country
training oyer that obtained within
the hurry and cramping influences
of a city. The references to the
war tad col. Otter's share in it were
the nccotion of the greatest outburst

lowing, the lion, A. M. Roes, who
sat in the phase i f honor at the
president's right, was nominated by
Dir. G. A. eolith far the tnonorare

To fill the vacant seat.

But we are lonely here,
And when on her we ponder,
We always shed a tsar.
We miss her from the Sabbath school,
Whore oft we sad to meet.
We miss her from the.publio school,
We miss her from her said,
When homeward bound we miss dear
We Ada,noshe is not here,
That is a happier land she dwells in.
While we are dwelling here.
Her hopes grew brighter as she neared
The bright eternal shore,
For the knew across the river
That friends had gone before,
Then dry those tears and took above,
She wishes all to come
And meet her in that happy plats,
And share her blessed home.
