ADDS 41NOTHER''VERSE'
TO THE "OLD SHEBANG" •
A local resident,who got quite
,a "lack" out of the poem 'MI6
Old Shebang in last week's is-
sue. , recalls ' another ver e, which
was, not included. While not, of
the best gramatical or• poetical
construction, it went' like this:
'There . was men and ,boys
eery* sort, there was ' men both
old and • young, - .
Of every .creed' and nation ,and
of every,mortal tongue; ' `"
There was men who spoke the
Gaelic and others. =.to twist the
brogue, ' '
And for every decent man
• there was a' ha1`f a .dozen rogues._
The history of 'the Old Shebang
goes'back to the time of the. Dun-
can Act,' when Bruce was "dry"
and Huron "wet". To . remain•
within the flaw and . still be ;able
'to sell a ee dtopJo the_thirsty
..this- community tWo-- liquor-
Stores
iquorstores were established "in' 'the
swamp" at .the western outskirts
: of the village, , on the, Huron side
of the road. "The Old- Shebang" -
was • one, of these liquor stores.
SEEDING STARTED LATE IN
MAY BACK ,IN 1916
The lateness of the seeding sea:-
son,
ea-son, recalls to mind ,a soniewhat
similar ' condition back in 1916.
Mr. N. E. 'Bushell tells . us that
seeding started that year on May
' 24th and it was . as late as June
15th 'when some farmers com•
:pleted the job.
The, potato crop was excellent

:feed, although the • quality of the
:grain was not :up to 'standard.
