SPONGES OF THE BAHAMAS The Bahamas rank third, after Florida and Cuba, in world sponge production, and the lowly sponge is second only to visitors as a source of income for the colony, says; the National Geographic Society bulletin. Six commercial species of sponges are found in the clear, blue waters of the Bahamian archipelago, growing on natural mud banks or on rocks in comparatively shallow water. Most sought after is the wool sponge, with its soft texture like sheep's wool.' The others, in order of their value, I are velvet, grass, yellow, hardhead and reef. The last three vary in value. too, according to the localities from which they are obtained. The brown or yellow colored sponge of commerce is realty only a skeleton of a jet black or dark brown multicellular animal that grows on the sea bottom anchored by strong "roots" to some hard object, such as a piece of rock or a coral reef. in the Bahamas a large fleet of sailing boats and nearly three thousand nat- ive fishermen are engaged annually in "harvesting" the sponge crop, which, like land crops, is subject to destruction by hurricanes, blights and many other hazards. Gathering sponges does not involve diving in the Bahamas, for the eyes, tures live in relatively shallow water. In recentY ears a fewBahamian a i an sponges have come from "planted" beds; that is, areas where bits of living sponge have been attached to stone sinkers and .dropped to the bottom. there to grow to maturity. As high as five thousand sponges have been "planted" by individual spongers, but the task of patrolling the bed is an onerous one. Sponge growth is slow. A wool sponge may require from five to six years to reach a marketable size (about seven inches in diameter). After "harvesting" the sponges are taken ashore to be cleaned and dried. Tc, slough off the tenacious dark out- erfiesh the sponges are exposed in the air for from twenty-four to forty- eight homes, after which tbey must soak in stagnant little pools called kraals or erawls, where their flesh' decomposes, leaving only the skele- ton. Then they are squeezed and again placed in the air to dry. Most of this work is done along bits of lonely ahoreland because the stench froth decaying sponge flesh is one of the world's vilest odors.

PORT ALBERT In the million acre grant of land given to the Canada Company in the Huron district, extending from Guelph to Lake Huron, the town- ships of Ashfield, West and Bast Wawanosh, were not included and therefore did not share in the great influx of immigrants in the early 1830's, but as the company's large area filled up, settlers turned their attention to vacant lands to the north. says W. H, Johnston in the London Free Press, Immigrants were enthusiastic over the hope of owning a far for them- selves from which they could not be driven at the whim of a landlord, and they came in such numbers that the Government of that day hastened to have areas surveyed to receive them. In 1837 William Hawkins laid out the town plot of Port Albert, and farm lands were also surveyed. -Be- tween 1837 and 1841 the first set- tlers came north from Goderich by water or by following the shoreline. The first were Andrew McConnell Jerome Sharpe, Stephen Martin and Johan Hawkins and family. Sharpe did not remain long and McConnell was drowned in 1842 while on his way In a boat from Goderich, though Inc descendants and those of the other men still occupy an important place in tate townships. Soon after the coming of these men they were followed by others who located along the Lake Range up to the Bruce boundary. The first were John Dean, Maurice Dalton and' Jeremiah Plynn, who formed ,the nu- cleus of the Roman Catholic parish at Kingsbridge, Then north of that the first settlers were Alex IeI Lean and Roderick Finlayson, who were follow-, ed by a large number of Scotch Presbyterians who located from Kin• tail to Amberley and Lochalsh. The area is still occupied by their des- cendants after the lapse of almost a century. From both the Irish and num settlements have gone out possibly a larger number of dieting - wished scholars than from any other rural area of the same size in On- tario. From St. Joseph's parish at Kingsbride 18 young men have ent- ered the priesthood since 1860 and since 1875 30 young women have joined the sisterhood of the church and are to be found in convents In many remote points on this contin- ent. Turning to the eastern side of the township we find that the first set- tler was William Mallough who drove through from Hamilton in 1843 and settled on lot 12, concession 5. Next year Robert Davidson took up the adjoining lot on concession 4. Half of the present village of Dun- gannon is located on these two lots. During 1848 and 1849 Richard Tre- leaven. Thomas Anderson, the Altons, Hacketts and others came, In. 1845 Henry Phillips and his three stalwart sons were to be found settled on the 8th and 9th concessions. The centre of the township filled rapidly as new- comers came pouring in from both sides about this time and within four or five years almost every lot was occupied or bought. The first mill was built by the government at Port Albert where on account of tbe waterr power on the Lucknow River it was believed a town would be established before long. In 1842. Ashfield which included also East and West Wawanosh, was formed into a municipal district and when an area was surveyed in the southern .part of Bruce it was added to Ashfield also. On January 3, 1842, a "town meet- ing" was held in Sharpe's Hotel, Port Albert, for the purpose of elect- ing a council to manage the affairs of the new municipality. After Maur- ice Dalton was voted to the shah it was moved by William E. Higgins, seconded by John King, that John Hawkins, Sr., be councilor. The air raid warden stopped a mam who was smoking an after-dinner cigar: "Put out that cigar!" be said. "But it's not showing any light," objected the smoker, "I know," replied the warden.
