In, closing she alluded to 'the pleasure it afford- ed her to be present on this occasion and how she always tried to fill ber engagements and criticised some of the dailies for making it appear to their readers that she had been re- miss in that respect, which she said was not the case- as far as any en- gagement made with her consent, and as far as it was possible for her to be present. She alluded to the interest taken by Mrs. W. N. Glenn in the U. F, O. and her untiring work ir. the interests of the cause. Miss McPhail made a very good impres- sion on the audience as an excep- tionally good speaker, and was given a splendid hearing throughout an address of over an hour. At the close of the evening's pro- gramme a motion •of thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Glenn, for the use of their fine grounds, was muved by Mrs. W. Pearce, of the Township of Hay, and seconded and presented by the Chair- man to Mrs. Glenn, who made a short and appropriate reply thereto, not wishing to take up any time at that late hour. The meeting closed with the National Anthem. THE HURON EXPOSITOR SEAFORTH, Friday, August 18, 1922 SUCCESSFUL U. F. O. PICNIC The U. F. W. O. and U. F. O.11tic- nic, held on the fine grounds of Mr. and Mrs. William Glenn, of the Boundary, east of Hensall, on Fri- day evening last, was largely at- tended, many coming by auto from long distances, while it seemed that nearly all the farmers within the district were present. The grounds were beautifully lighted by electric- ity and abundance of seats had been provided for the occasion and a brighter and more favorable evening as to weather conditions and moon- light could not be desired. The lien - salt was resent Brass Bandin full numbers and gave a nember of fine selections, both pt,'.osays to the open- ing of the evening's programme and throughout the same, and received much praise for their fine playing. Between eight and nine the meet- ing was opened with Mr. W. Black, M.P., the U.F.O. member for South Huron, in the chair. Mr. Black gave a very interesting address during which he made mention of his ex- periences at Ottawa and his desire to become more and more at home in the House, and get more in touch with the order of proceedings and the pleasure he felt in representing the U. F. 0., and the added pleasure in presiding over such a fine meeting as the present one. After a short review of the past session's work, he called upon the band for a selection, after which Mr. Porter, Managing I ditor of the Farmers' .Advocate, was called upon to speak. In a short Lend humorous speech he referred to the important work the U. Ie. O. was doing, and how anxious he was to impress the members of Parliament more and more to boost Canada in the Old Country markets for stock and inferred to a recent trip he had the -e and how he found other coun- tries mere boomed than Canada. Mr. Roundhouse, the Deputy Mini- ster of Agriculture, was then called upon and expiamed how Mr. Doherty, the Minister of Agriculture, was pre- vented from being present on account of a sever attack of neuritis, which he was subject to, and how he had Planned to he present and asked the speaker, his deputy, to express his keen disappointment at not being able to be present. Mr. Roundhouse then went on to speak of the good work being accomplished by the U. F. O. and how anxious the Minister of Agriculture was to do everything in his power to advance the best in- terests of the farming community and spoke at some length on the new ,system adopted for granting loans to toe formers. During the past Id months over a million dollars had been loaned under this system, and also referred to the necessity of the farmers banding together to do all they could in the way of suct:essful fsrrcing, and again expressing the ]egret the Minister of Agrieulturo felt in not being able to be present, and thanking Mrs. Glenn for the great interest she had taken in the U. F. O. and how much of their suc- cess in this community was nue to her work, he concluded. Mr. Medd, of Exeter, was then call- ed upon for a few remarks to which he responded in a short address, in which he emphasized the needs of the farming community and how im- portant it was for them to have good legislation in their interests, and that they should watch the trend of events very closely and support all good legislation in their interests. After . another selection by the Band, Miss McPhail, the lady member of the U. F. 0., was called upon and certainly gave the address of the evening, and being a fine and rapid speaker, she dwelt very largely and minutely on the policy of the U.F.O. She said that they should be proud of their calling and organization, and make their influence more and more felt in the house, and how important it had been for them to organize as they had to fight against what might be termed the money or controlling interests such as banks, transporta- tion and other institutions, which, she felt, had been operating against the best interests of the farming community. She also criticised the policies of both the Liberals and the Conservatives as not being fair to the farming community and that, in her judgment, it was not necessary that the U. F. O. or Progressive Party, should be formed and carried on and that she preferred the name of U. F. O. more than that of which was termed the "Progressive Party," as it really was a union of the farm- ers for their protection and best in- terests. She spoke at some length •of her new experiences as a member in the House, and her resolve not to go with what might be termed "the stream," which was so easy to fol- low and which made shipwreck of so many members. She wanted to ex- ercise her own individuality and to vote for, or against measures solely from her standpoint of view, of them being right or otherwise. Miss Mc- Phail gave some quite athusing sketches of men and measures brought up in .the House and how wearisome the, formal -proceedings often were, arid, particularly in connection with the. Spieech from the Throne and the .j as time tauten in treating of it, and ('HISELHU RST Notes.—Glen McLean, Bert Wren, Lindsay Eyre and Mr. and Mrs. Ira Chambers left here on Monday last with the excursion to the West. -- Mr. and Mrs. E.

ST.

After a twelve hour search the body was found on Sun- day, a short distance from where the drowning occurred. The little lad was playing at the Cavanaugh brick yard, a short distance from the resi- dence of his parents, and was sent home as a storm, which swept the township, was approaching.
