After the meal, happy birthday was sung to four participants and Bill Clark, one of the longest members in the Club gave a very interesting resume of the starting of the Club 21 years ago at Cedar Grove. Four members were present who attended at that time. Ethel Knight was thanked for being responsible for the euchre tally cards all year. Harry Baker thanked Esther and Jessie Metcalf dies tong -time residents of Bayfield who, knew Miss Jessie Metcalf were saddened to hear of her death on Sunday. Her love of this village and its . inhabitants was evidenced in many ways. Children were aware of her knowledge of zoology and botany 40 years ago when they profited from her kindliness and patience in sharing her love of nature with them: On hikes up the river valley with Jessie as guide they would return with creepy, crawly treasures - a Salamander from underneath an overturned • and •rotting log, a crayfish or a small turtle from the riverbed. What little knowledge I possessed about mushrooms, i - yearned from this friendly lady who always took the time to explain. Adults too benefited from her generosity. She undertook to interest eight of her American and Canadian friends to put up money to repay Lucy Diehl, who secured the land for our beloved Pioneer Park. The money had to be raised quickly when the land was put up for sale 35 years ago. What a debt we owe to these few people ! More recently, in memory of her mother, .Jessie purchased lots on the Main Street and donated them to the village for then location of the new library and the relocation of the old one as an archives room. Mrs. MetcaU held devoted much of her time and energy •to the Bayfield Library as a member of the `Bayfield Library Board. It was a rare treat to be numbered amongst Jessie's friends. Donations in her memory will be accepted by the Pioneer Park Association. Lloyd Makins for their leadership during the past year. Esther Makins gave the treasurer's report ' and even though the admission fee is 25 cents, the club is in a healthy condition.
