T caw (14 layt GO SOME PLACE 9rias MAE At this time of year, there are seVeral hundred thousand people through- out the length and breadth of the land who are thinking about vacation, and vacation to most of them, means going some rplage. That is the way it should be. This is the greatest nation in the world for ogoing places," and may such never cease, To travel is to live. To sit sloth -like in one place is to see nothing, be nothing, feel nothing and next thing to knowing nothing. Travel is educ - .L tion—the most pleasant form of education known to man, for it "peoples the heart and mind with pictures that never fade." Travel gives a character of experience to our knowledge, and brings the figures upon the tablet of mem- ory into strong relief. Get away from the searoundings with which you are so "contemptuously familiar." Get away frbm the daily grind—go places, see things and learn, by contact with those of a different clime. If you live South, go North— if yourhabitat is East, go West. 'If you live on the plains, ga, look at on ocean, if you have never seen a mountain, go gaze at one, before you are any older. And in the going, see what there is to see. Study how towns do thins—how others who make their living as you make yours, conduct their affairs. What you learn depends solely on your natural powers and gift of conception, but regardless, you can't be the loser for such a venture. There are, in America, so many worthwhile places to go—places that ev- ery American should see and know about, that lack of a destination is no excuse. The National Capital, the National Parks, historical points, prom- inent in America's history—in every section of the United States, in your very own state, there are places to -go. But whatever you do, wherever you,go, remember that you are an ambas- sador of the place where you live, and- as such, "sell" it to all those with whom you come in contact.

THE WEBSTE CLAN The Lucknow Sentinel makes the following reference to the annual gathering of the Webster Clan, held in Wingham on June 15th: "Perhaps it isn't quite right to re- fer to a family of Irish extraction as a "clan" seeing that the Scotch lay special claim to that word as to so much else in this world. But the Irish of a few hundred years ago had their clans, too, although we haven't heard so much about them as we have of the Scotch family organizations with their gay tartans and their bag- pipes. But that aside, the Webster -fami- lies and connections of Ashfield and Stanley townships had a delightful day for their sixth annual picnic, which was held in Caledonian Park here on Saturday. The gathering wasn't quite as large as that of some former years, but the spirit was the same, and what with the meeting of friends, the sports and the bountiful repasts there was a most enjoyable time allround. The mid-day meals, served in the rink, took somewhat the form of a banquet; at any rate the eating was followed by speeches. Mr. Tom Web- ster, who had come over from Detroit, president of the business committee, acted as toastmaster. There were speeches by a number of local clergy- men, and by Mr. Harry McGee, of The T. Eaton Company, who having had se Webster for a mother, has always taken a lively interest in the family gathering, and always attends when business is not pressing. • The Rev. A. W. Brown, who in his A'shfield charge has quite a number of the Webster family and connec- tions in his congregation, was able to testify to their good citizenship. He s many warm and valued friends among the descendant e of the Wes- ster pioneers. Short speeches were made also by the Rev. R. W. Craw, and Rev. E. 0. Gallaher, of Lucknow, and Rev. Mr. IP'ehrose, of Varna, formerly of White- church. Mr. McGee, though one of Canada's big business men, and a millionaire several times over, has remained a democrat, and is never so happy as when among the common people— unless it be when he is making big and successful strokes in business for the company in the up -building of which he has had so much to do.

SEAFGET bag throwing, thread -the -needle race, obstacle race and children's races. Mrs. A. E. Erwin won the guessing contest, with a guess of 1200, the ac- tual number being 1187. Mrs. 1.41ebarti 'won the bean-bag throwing, with Mrs. Wright second. The thread -and -needle race was won by J. R. Middleton and Mrs. Sweit- zer, with W. Mole and Miss Dodds second. 'Several other races and events were carried out, and heartily engaged in. It was noticed there was much in- terest in the horseshoe contest, in which many of those not included in the baseball and running events took part. County Clerk Holman was director of sports. At _the conclusion of the sports, while the ladies wer busy getting supper, splendid addresses were given by several of those present, including ex -wardens and ex -councillors. Warden Inglis was the first called on and welcomed those present to the council's annual picnic. He was fol- loVed by ex -Wardens Beavers, Doig. Erwin, Cantelon and Robertson, and Mr. Robert Johnston, County Court Clerk, who is an ex -warden of Bruce county. Councillor Beattie and east Councillor Sanders and Coultis spoke very interestingly of the splendid position occupied by Huron County. Taking it all in all, this of the best picnics ever held by the county council—the heartiness in en- tering the sports, the goodwill and sociability manifested made the gath ering an ideal one in every way.
