Landmark Disappears Snowden Barn Burns (By our Bayfield correspondent) Miss Rose Snowden's large barn, an historic landmark, fell prey to flames of unknown' origin early Tuesday morning, Miss Snowden was awakened by little pigs squealing in the yard, and voices under her window. She heard someone say: "I guess no- body lives here." She went to the window and said: "Yes!" And a man called: "Lady come down. Your barn rn is on fire." (They were Passing motorists, two couples, who first noticed the flames,) As she looked out, Miss Snowden said that the whole barn just seemed to go up in a burst of flames. ,'(They could be seen for eight Miles.) It Was about Lour o'clock that the Heyeld: lire Department re- ceived a'call but the men could do nothing but" protect the chicken house. They stoodby for three hours in case of a shift in the wind. Fortunately the wind was in the northeast and carried the sparks away from the house and Black -Top Sidewalks Nearly Completed Here New sidewalks a being applied to the old shattered ones in town, with great speed. Last night all of the main walks in the down- town area were covered with "hot mix" . with the exception of the Xing Street strip. First application to the cement sidewalk is patching of existing holes and large depressions. Then a truck drives upon the walk, bearing a load of the hot mix, With shovels, rakes anti spreaders, the workmen level out the mater- ial, making it of uniform thick- ness, While 'one man tamps down the edge to form a beveled edge at the curb, a three -ton roller travels back and forth over the newly -laid top, forcing it into a firm, smooth surface: Then when it has settled for a day or so, other workmen brush on a thin layerof cement mixture, using fine brooms for the job, When this dries it leaves the sur - tem :.grey, instead of black. Working under the supervision of Deputy Reeve Burton Stanley, chairman of the public works committee in charge of streets, the men are doing the job swiftly, and carefully. The Warren Pav- ing Company, which also has the job oflaying the surface of King Street, is doing the aides/elks: The circular ..driveway around Library Park, which serves the Library, the Fire Hall and the Po- lice Office entrance to the Town Seaforth Marks 110 Years Of Fairs; .Build Stand One hundred and ten years , of feirs in Seaforth is being marked this year, and the agricultural so- ciety is planning to erect a per- manent platform in front of the grandstand. A grant Of $1,000 from the provincial government, similar to that which raised the bandstand 10 the Clinton park, will be used to help finance the. project, Built of reinforced concrete, the platform will be 20 feet by 36 feet, with four rooms underneath, to be used 'as dressing -rooms, etc. A speaker's stand is to be erected at One end.' The Society hopes to have the work >ompleted in time for the Old Boys Reunion early next month. Hall, also had been surfaced. Last fall the Clinton Citizens' Horti- cultural Society paid for the work of getting new curbs put in do the park side of this driveway. The new black top goes right ,to the wall of the Town Hall, on that side. It is hbped that the new paving will eliminate trouble with rain water washing into the base- ment of the Town Hall. It is expected also that the holes which have appeared in pre- viously black -topped road surfaces throughout town, will be patched this summer: ' Working along with the paving company,.. the town streetsgang, under the foremanship of Fred Trevena are making necessary re- pairs 'to curbings, etc. They also have been at work 'yesterday breaking up the surface of the pavement at the main intersection getting ready for the work which must be done in repairing the sig- nals system, Sloop Capsizes .

No sails were set, but the boat was using the auxiliary motor, H, R. Henderson, a Woodstock manufacturer, rushed to the scene in his own boat and is credited with averting possible disaster. He threw life preserves to the persons in the water. All of the passengers in the boat were able to swim, but with the shore a third of a mile' away, it Was doubtful that .all would have made it.

The largest barn in the district, it was built in 1882 in the form of an L. Two barns were placed to- gether and raised on a stone foundation, at on, and another one built on the end. The stonework which' has often been admired, was done by two expert craftsmen, John and Alexander Thompson, (who had emigrated from Scotland) for Mrs. B. Snowden. (At the time, the late Robert Snowden was 15 and the late Thomas Snowden nine years of age). The small pig house, also on a wall at the end of the barn, was built by Miss Snowden's father, Barnard Snow- den, some time after he took up the property in 1842. Three years ago, the large builds ing began to separate. Miss Snow- den spent considerable money hav- ing the two buildings drawn to- gether again and reinforced with a cement Wall. Timbers were also replaced. The work was done by Douglas Gemeinhardt.

Clinton Girls Enter Contest At Seaforth Old Boys Already two girls from Clinton have decided to enter the Beauty Contest in the. Seaforth Old Boys Reunion celebration. "But", as Mayor M. J. Agnew states, "That is not enough, There are plenty of pretty girls in Clinton, and we should have at least ten from our town entering the contest in Sea - forth. The prize," commented Mayor ,Agnew, "is an all -expense paid weekend trip to New York City, and that would be a very nice thing for any girl to win," Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce here, Bert Gliddon, was first interested in the project, and through his suggestion a notice of the contest was placed in this pap- er. Results of this note, hasbeen two entrants. However, as Bert says, "We should be able to find more girls than .that to enter the contest. Clinton and district girls are as pretty as those to be found anywhere else." Girls wishing to enter the eon - test should leavetheir names, along with a.picture pf themselves, with either Bert Glidden, or with Mayor M. J. Agnew. They will be forwarded to the authorities in Seaforth, who will contact the entrants, direct.

Eight buses then took the well- fed group through the city to the parliament buildings, Again a police escort led the way, holding traffic at each corner so the par- ade of 4-H-ers could proceed swift- Ile without stopping at red lights. At the pail lent buildings, several group pictures were taken of the 500 as they stood on the wide steps, Then came a trip to the legislative assembly room, where 4-H ers sat in the seats of the Members and filled all four galleries. Trim girl guides, dressed in navy blue skirts and scarlet jackets showed the way, and. a Mrs, Zackeray, one of the guides, spoke about the federal and pro- vincial governments using an audience -participation method to keep her hearers interested in the subject;' Mrs. Zackeray described the furnishings of the 'chamber, in- cluding the hand -carved wood- work, of which no two designs are alike, made of Canadian sycamore and mahogany; the carved coat of arms above the speaker'schair, made from a solid piece of ma- hogany brought from the British Honduras; the four huge chandel- iers, each weighing 900 pounds and lit by 76 bulbs each, which are lowered to the floor by a winch when cleaning is necessary, Here, J. A, Carroll, defluty min- ister of agriculture (who officially opened the Clinton Spring Show and unveiled the memorial plaque here this spring) spoke to the group.He suggested su gg std that they take a good look around, for "some day, one of you will be sit- ting here again, representing Hu- ron County in the Provincial Leg- islature," egislature," He told the group to get statistics from his department and 'compare Huron County with others in the province, to see where it stood in production and wealth. • From the chainbe, the group walked, again with police escort, to the Wellesley Street entrance to the subway, where organization and commonsense on everyone's part made it possible for the 500 all to board the same train, for a round trip to the north end and back .to Union Station. After a short wait, the group boarded three street ears, reserved for the purpose, and made the trip to the Exhibition grounds for a box lunch served in the coliseum. At the Coliseum the group was addressed by Jack Perdue of the agricultural' section of the CNE; and by F. A.

However, the ag. reps, knew the interest of the group in the outcome of the game and had it announced over the loudspeaker at the station -,- Toronto . Maple Leafs 3 Cuban Sugar Xings 2, It was two -thirty Wednesday morning when the train pulled in to Clinton, and It would be much later than that before a good many of the young 4-H Club members got to their homes, The biggest special agricultural train to leave Huron County in many years pulled out for. Toron- to on Tuesday morning, bearing 501 members from the 4-H Clubs in the county. The tour was'pr- ganized by A. H.

Rising at five o'clock the young- sters came many miles in some cases to board the train at Gode- rich, Clinton, Seaforth and' Mit- chell. Arriving' in Toronto at about 9.30 'a busy day's program began. ' They were fhet at West Toronto station by a trio of policemen on motorcycles, who provided an escort to the packing plants of Canada Packers Ltd. and Swift Canadian Co. Ltd. The group split up, with 250 going to each plant. An organized tour Was con- ducted, •which included a trip through the oil refinery where the Police Chief Warns Against Children Accepting Rides Chief of Police H. Russel Thomp- son has issued a warning to par- ents and asks them to warn their children against accepting rides from strangers. Though the Chief does not wish to alarm parents unduly, he does suggest that it is a dangerous practice for young- sters to accept rides from those they do not know. 'In case juveniles are apprehend- ed on the road and asked to take a ride, they are asked to make note of the license number of the car, and report it to Chief Thomp- son.

George Il M e Wright Kippen Named District Deputy Worshipful -Master Frank Wright, Iiippen, was unanimously elected District Deputy Grand Master for the South Huron Dist- rict, at the centennial meeting of the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of Canada in the Province of Ontario, in To- ronto on Monday. Mr. Wright is a past master. of Huron Lodge No. 224, Hensel]. Five carloads of local Masons went from Hensall to attend the affair, which was attended by 3,300 Masons from Canada, the United States, Great Britain and Australia. It marked 100 years since the Grand Lodge of Canada was formed, independent from - those in England with which they had originally been associated. A thanksgiving service was held in the CNE grandstand . on Sun- day, and the Grand Masters' ban- quet was held in the Coliseum at the ONE grounds on Monday. Elections were held- that night, and the officers were installed early Tuesday. Among the officers were Grand Cardiff Presses For New Post Office Space Elston Cardiff, Brussels, MP Mr Huron, has again received assur- ance from the Federal Govern- ment that plans are under way to improve post office accommoda- tion in Hensall and Exeter. Speaking in the House on Tues- day, Mr.' Cardiff said that before the election, it had been agreed thatthe land was to be bought from the` CM/ for a post office. It was left to the Board of Trade to have a building constructed, following'kwhich the government agreed to rent it for post office purposes. It seemed that right after the election the project was forgotten Mr. .Cardiff wondered what had happened to it. The Hon. Robert Winters; min- ister of public Works, said there was a problem as to the site. Some consideration was given to erect- ing a building at Wellington and Ring Streets in Hensall. But local citizens, said Mr. Winters, includ- ing ncluding the reeve, expressed. the view that the proposed site Was unsatis- factory. Sincethen, the depart- ment, reported ;Mr. Winters, had been giving :consideration to a more adequate site o`r to provid- ing more adequate postal accom- modation. Mr. Cardiff said that sounded reasonable. But had thee building been constructed it would have rented for ten years. After the election: was over, the whole scheme fell through and nothing had been heard about it since,; As long as he was the MP for that particular riding, he represented all the people in the riding, re- gardless of politics, he said. The Huron.MP said if there was any political -angle in the situa- tion, it would not backfire on him, but on the government. He was notconcerned with the political aspects, but wanted something done to provide adequate accom- modation. He urged the minister to send his engineers down. Ile did not care who erected the buildings. so long as it was built to meet the needs of the people:. in Hensel]. • Ia.,' Exeter Mr. Cardiff urged action on building the addition to the poste office in Exeter, since it was much to small. He said it could be erected at .reasonable cost, and said he hoped he' would not come back to the House next year and find nothing in the estimates to cure the situation The Hon. Mr. Winters assured him that the property had been looked at and preliminary sketch- es of the type of building that might be suitable for Exeter were being made. 0 Mr. and Mrs. James Reid and daughter Carol Anne, and Mrs. S.
