W. G. NICHOLSON
It has been pleasing and encourag-
ing to the Board of Wingham Hos-
pital to note the interest manifest in
the success of the enterprise by rural
communities, In many instances,
this interest has been shown in a
practical way, and the treasury of the
institution has been benefitted.
To the people of Belgrave and ad-
jacent sections of Morris and Wawa -
nosh, however, belongs the honor of
the most successful effort made so far.
When the project was first suggested,
action quickly followed, and a large
and influential committee was formed.
We could not, learn all the names, but
among the workers were -W. G. Nic-
holson, John Clegg, W, Watson, Jno.
Scandrett, Alex. Porterfield, W. K.
Whaley, Dr. Hamilton, J. A. Bran-
don, T. S. Brandon, Rev. J. I. Lauren -
dean, Geo, Taylor, Duncan McCallum,
T. Hill, D. Allison and others. T. S.
Brandon was chosen Chairman of the
committee, D. Allison, Secretary, and
preparations began,
The spacious lawn of W. G. Nichol-
son, 1?, miles east of Belgrave, was
chosen as the place, and the date fixed
for July 4th.
The effort was grandly successful,
and it was evident that the object
appealed strongly to the good -will of
the inhabitants of the surrounding
country. Early in the afternoon, the
crowd began to arrive, and by five
o'clock several hundred people were
on the grounds. Until nine p.m, they
continued to pour in, and the lanes,
barnyard and roadside were thronged
with hundreds of vehicles, and fully
1800 people were enjoying the occa-
sion. At 8.15, a special train from
Wingham brought others, on pleasure
bent.
In the afternoon, there were two
baseball matches. The first, between
Belgrave and Blyth juniors was won
by the former ; score, 13 to 8. The
second, between Wingham and Blyth
teams was won by Blyth ; score, 10-7.
At 5,15, the supper bell rang, and
until after nine o'clock, the tables
were neither lonely nor deserted.
By six o'clock, Wingham. Citizens'
Band had arrived, and their excellent
music contributed in no small degree .
to the pleasure of the evening,
Soon after eight o'clock, Rev. J. J.
Hastie was called to the chair, and
the program began. It proved very'.
interesting, and included Chairman's
address, vocal music by Wingham
and Brussels quartettes, instrumental
by Miss Hazel Brandon, selections by
the Band, addresses by Jas. Bowman,
W. H. Kerr, Father Lanrendeau, Dr.
Chisholm and Dr. Macdonald. The
majority seemed to be more interested
in music and social enjoyment, hence
most of the speakers (very wisely)
made their addresses brief.
No one worked harder than Mr.
Nicholson himself. I e was here,
yonder, everywhere, endeavoring to
rind room for horses, vehicles, etc.,
busy all the time, as jolly as St. Nic-
holas, with a smile and welcome for
all. Good entertainer is W. G. Nic-
holson.
A. most delightful evening was
spent ; about 11 p. in., the special
train was due to leave for Wingham,
and soon after, the most successful
effort in aid of a worthy institution
had passed, leaving many pleasant
recollections behind it.
The latest obtainable report of the
receipts give the total at $500.00.
GARDEN PARTY NOTES.
The quartettes sang nicely.
Well done Belgrave and vicinity.
Spacious lawn, and a "boss" enter-
tainer.
Ideal weather ; receipts very satis-
factory.
The tent, under W. K. Whaley's
supervision, did a good business.
Between two hundred and fifty and
three hundred vehicles thronged the
yard and roadside.
Wingham Quartette consisted of -
Misses Estelle Griffin and Olive Mason,
Messrs. Geo, Cline and F. J. Hill.
Where, oh where were the host of
young lady waiters? All honor to
the few who bore the burden of the
work,
Ex -Warden Jas, Bowman is a pleas.
ing speaker and was listened to atten-
tively. The Legislature would be the
better for a few more honest farmers,
that can express their ideas as well as
Bowman.
W. G. is certainly a huge success at
Garden Parties, and ought to be a
success in married life. Why is he
still a bachelor i Ah, that's a poser.
Are the young ladies of Morris doing
their duty. Doesn't look right some-
how.
Dr. Chisholm seemed to enjoy him-
self, and scores of people were pleased
to meet the popular member for East
Huron. To have to speak at garden
parties appears to be part of the pen-
alty for being a politician, but Dr.
Chisholm can do it nicely.
Warden Currie was there overflow-
ing with geniality. Shouldn't won-
der if he had a very pretty little
speech bottled up, but he wasn't asked
to take the cork out. The Warden
has taken a lively interest in the Hos-
pital ; in fact, in all that concerns
Wingham's welfare.
Bro. W. H. Kerr was there, with
his election eye open, and he too
speaks fluently. It must be hard
work to canvass for the honor of rep-
resenting East Huron in the Legisla-
ture, if that is the cause of our genial
friend of the Brussels Post getting so
grey -headed. • Besides, the worst is to
come; just wait Bro. Kerr until you
have kissed all the babies in East
Huron, and shaken hands 875,909
times,
'Tis said, Arch. Hyslop, M. L. A.,
was there, but left before the speak-
ing began. It is rumored that he is
"bashful," and while he does not k` to a
ob-
jecttalking rug to an audience of faith-
ful Grit voters about the awful iniqui-
ties of the Tories, he does draw the
line at a big audience of sweet-faced,
bewitching young ladies ; it is too
much to expect of him. Hence he slid
a liberal fee upon the plate (would
take no change) and "slippit awa'
hame."

to their appreciation.

Good Reasons Por ifs Success.
The majority of catarrh remedies
are useless. But one that does care is
"Catarrhozone" It clears the head of
all mucous discharge. Putrid matter
in the nostrils, phlegm in the throat,
and diseaseerms are completely
swept away. The cause of the disease
is destroyed, and the system so thor-
oughly cleansed of catarrhal poison
that cure is permanent. All types of
catarrh, throat and bronchial trouble,
colds and coughs are more certain
cured by Catarrhozone than any thing
else, Two sizes, 25e and $1 at all
