Historical Society hear about
Styles in the village
The speaker at the
.Bayfield Historical
Society meeting on
Monday night was 'Mrs.
Doris Hunter, a long-time
summer resident of
Bayfield. More recently,
upon retirement of Dr.
Rob • Hunter, the ,couple
moved fromToronto to
make the village their
permanent home.
Doris was introduced
by Lois .Lance, who
stressed the valuable
contribution she had
made to the social life of
the -village over the
years. Her subject was
"architectural styles
.within the Village"; The
photography used to
illustrate her story was
the work of Ernie Hovey.
The projectionist was
Lorne Bamford and the
combined .effort pointed
up the fact that Bayfield
is indeed rich in - ar-
chitectural history.
• Doris recalled with a
few nostalgic references,
the history of the period
during which each house
was built, from the very
old Marks house on Tuyll
Street, built of brick and
later covered with stucco
- an example of pic-
turesque eclecticism -
Players present
outdoor theatre
The Prodigal Players is
a group which is
travelling throughout
Ontario this summer as it
tris to re -capture the
spirit of the medieval
troupes that travelled
from community to
community performing
out -doors on a mobile
stage, or "pageant
wagon" as they were
called. Their program
states "We are convinced
°that drama is an exciting
and effective vehicle for
both church worship and
christian education. It is
with this motivation that
we bring you the Prodigal
Players."
It was a very chilly
evening as the troupe put
on their show with an
audience of well over 100
in Pioneer Park on
Wednesday evening last
week. Children were
quiet and obvsiously

Round about
the village
Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Baker were visited 1 y
Mr. James Pollock of
Brandon and Mr. and
Mrs. Wat , Webster._ of
Clinton on'Sunday.
The Rev. and Mrs.
James Reddoch have
returned . from visiting
their son, Dr. Alton and
his wife Mary in
Whitehorse in the Yukon.
While in Whitehorse, they
took a thousand mile trip
on the "Top of The World
Highway'.' . which • is the
furthest -north Canadian
highway travelling east
and west in Canada.
They Ieddochs were
away for six weeks.

motored to Calgary to
visit 'their younger son

Betty. Before flying to
Whitehorse they

after the sunset that the
audience gradually
thinned, as children
became tired and adults
were 'frozen' out.
This is the troupe's first
year and they have ac-
cepted about 50 of the 70
invitations received
including one from
Bayfield. All the plays
and most of the music are
original with the com-
pany, and the only money
collected is the con-
tributions• made at each
show. The idea and the
effort are to be com-
mended. The young
actors showed talent as
did the singing minstrel.
Village, churches co-
operated in the presen-
tation. Since there is no
lighting in the Park, the
Rev. W. Bennett was
busy arranging for a
hook-up the day before.
St. Andrews United
;Church Women provided
dinner for the players.:
and the true country
Gothic house with its,
beautiful silvered siding
where Albert—Woods
lives, to the newer homes
of Mr. and. Mrs. Ross
Merrill and Mr. and Mrs.
Doug Ball. • -
An interesting contrast
-was that of the charming
1890 frame home of Mr.
and Mrs. Roy Fitzsimons,
with the new modernistic
home of their son Terry,
built by Mr. and Mrs.
Norm Rivers some years
ago.
The speaker suggested
taking closer looks at
churches. She
pointed' out special
features of Trinity
Anglican - a century and.
a quarter old and St.,
Andrews United. "Look
at it more closely. It's got
everything". Her ac-
count 'of how the village
became blessed with five
churches led to the
-~comment "There was no
neglect of souls in
Bayfield."
This was a first-rate
paper, skilfully prepared
with very apt comments
on the styles : of the 40
Bayfield buildings por-
trayed by word and
picture. When I com-
mented that there were a
couple of places I did not
recognize, Doris replied
that one objective of the
exercise had been to
make us all scrutinize
buildings more carefully
than heretofore.
It is to be hoped that the
Historical Society will
find ways and means to
preserve this valuable
documentary of the
village's valuable ar-
chitectural assets.
Words alone or pictures
alone would fail to convey
the impression which
only the combination of
both can achieve.

Bayfield Archve•s

The Archives quarters
are in the basement, and
the archivist, Cindy Clow,
described the cataloguing
system, which is very
complicated, involving
several sets of cards for
as many files on a single

photograph. The system
assures quick location of
