THE WINDHAM BAND.
The Wingham band, throughout the
laud
Hies fame beyond. compare,
The boys can all, both giea l and
Make music sweet and rare.
Their leader, Duncan, has a gift,
That beats the larks and thrushes,
And with his cornet can beguile
The birds from off the bushes,
With wondrous Skill, he leads the
hand.
Of Wingham boys in blue;
In Time and Tan% with cornet grand,,..
Excelled by very few.
Their uniforms become them well,
They march with steady pace;
And its they go, the music swells,
That lights up every face.
Jim has the gift that can impart
His skfll to other hands,
Ana that is why our boys so spry,
Excell the other bands.
Then here's hurrah for Leader Jim.
And for his humus band,
They do us proud, we'll shout aloud.
Their praise throughout the land.

New Station and Freight Shed.
Grand Trunk officials were In Wing -
ham recently, and it has been whis-
pered to the Advance that great im-
provements are contempletedI in fact,
we have it on good authority that it is
actually deeided that the changes shall
be mile, First, there will be a new
passenger station, nearer the front
street and e little south of the present
site. The Canada Furniture Manufac-
turers have purchased the pmsent
freight sheds, which will be moved
south and east of present location.
New freight sheds will then be erected
where the old Ones now stand, only
further back front the main hue.
These changes may be reckoned as im-
portant hnorovements, and certainly
indicate the importance of 'Whalebone
AS a Shipping point in the eyes of the
G. T. R. If we mistake not, the Cana-
da Furniture Manufaeturers are enti-
tled to a great deal of credit for bring-
ing the necessity of these changes to

We Lose flood Citizens.
This week, one of -Wingleam's most
respected families, Mr, and Mrs. Robt.
110111(1o°, remove from our town to
make their home in Fresno, Cali -
tontine Mr. avid Mrs, • McIndoo have
been residents of Wingham for thirty -
elle years, and have witnessed its
growth, from a mere hamlet, to one of
the most progressive and prosperous
towns in Ontario. For many years, a
large property -holder, Mr. Mclndoo
was always deeply interested in the
progress of our town. Several thues,
his fellow -electors placed him at the
Council table, and; for two years, he
served the town faithfully as Mayor.
During his Mayoralty, the Town Hall
(a credit to our town) was built. In
his public services, Mr, Windex) was
faithful and efficeent, always putting
the best interests of the town (as he
saw them) in first place. As business
mat and. private citizen be was held
in the highest esteem ; in this regard,
Mrs. Melndoo shared to the fullest
extent. They leave by this after-
noon's train to spend a few days with
relatives near Peterboro, before going
to their future home, The Advance
has a habit of "speaking out," and it is
not to Winghamu's credit, that. Mr. Mc-
Indoo should be allowed to depart
without some recognition of his value
as a citizen and his public services to
the town. This is so unlike Wingham,
that surely it must be, that our citi-
zens did not remember that this es-
teemed family was so soon to leave
us. No town can afford to lose such
citizens, The Advance regrets their
departure, and. hopes that in far-off,
sunny California, Mr. and Mrs. Mc-
Indoo nmay find a pleasant home and
congenial surroundings. We are sure
they cannot forget the thirty-one
years of resideipme here.

Lacrosse Match.
As announced, Clinton and Wing -
ham lacrosse teams played a game in,
the championship seriee. on the park
here on Friday evening. The game
was hotly contested throughout, heed
checking being a feature of the game.
Wingham boys played hard for vie -
tory and made shot after shot on their
opponents' goal, but a watchful goal-
keeper there prevented a number of
well-ahned shots from. scoring, and
the game ended with a score of three
for Clinton. On account of the treat..
ment accorded our boys in Clinton, a
very rough game was expected, but
fortunately noone was seriously hurt,
though both sides report bruises, etc.,
the general accompaniment of a la-
crosse match. Mr, Jackson of Sea -
forth acted es Referee and performed
his ditties impartially.
Prices Advancing.
Owing to the advance in wages and
all kinds of printing material, the.
Stratford. papers have again been
obliged to raise their advertising
rates. This is being done by other
papers in the province, Some papers
are doing away with their job depart-
ment on account of low ruling prices,
especially foe municipal work. The
Blyth Standard is thinking of advanc-
ing its advertising -and job printing
rates. There is no other way out of
the difficulty. When advertisers only
changed their advertisements month-
ly, and material and wages were low-
er, the old prices answered the pur-
pose. Now that everything the 'print-
er has to buy is high, and advertisers
want to change weekly, the printer
requires more help, and therefore
pays more wages ; hencethere seems
to be no other course open than an
advance in prices, and our confreres
are fillet* that out. The Advance
will let present rates stand as they
are for a time, but an increase is una-
voidable.

Wingham District Summer School.
The program for the Summer School

Epworth Leagues of Wingham Dis-
trict, in Kincardine Aug. 8th to 14th
inclusive, has reeched this office. The
sessions of 'the school will be held
much after the principle of the larger
schools in the oities. • There will be
'limning and evening sessions devoted
to the study of the Bible and Missions,
while the afternoons will be left free
for recreation. The strength and
quality of the program (night to be a
strong inducement to all the young
people of the district to attend. The
list of speakers includes Rev. 3. Hen-
derson, D. D., Toronto, Ass't Mission-
ary Sec'y ; Rev. F. C. Stephenson, M.
D., Toronto, Sec'y of the Forward
Movement.; Rev. R. W. Woocisworth

Leagties of Winghatn District because
he is engaged in the same kind of mis-
sion work as Rev. G: II, Raley of Kita-
meat, the missionary whom they sup-
port. ,Mr. Jackson will illustrate with
lime -light, views, the missions and
Mission stations of the Methodist
Church in British Columbia, In addie
tion to these speakers, Rev. 3. E. Mut-
ter, who so successfully campaigned
the district, will be present, whilst the
ministers of the local circuits and
charges aro very energetically co-
operating to make the gathering a
success. The singing during the whole
• school will be in charge of Prin. S. W.
Perry, 13, A., leader of the Kincardine
Methodist choir. Special stress dur-
ing the study classes will be laid upon
the two text books for 10034, viz.-
"Sttulies ie the Life of Christ" and
"The Heart of Sz-Ohuatt." The Sum-
mer School is unlike most conventions
and gatherings ina.stnuch as its work
takes a definite form. Instead of
talking on "how to study the Bible,"
the Bible wilt be studied ; instead of
spending tine over "how to study
missions," the different phases of mis-
sions and. mission work will be studied.

mai many of their Wends visited the
home. of their youth. An excursion
train of thirteen ears left Toronto,
and. at Guelph was divided one part
going to Clinton and. Goderich, and, -
the other th Wingham and Lucknow.
A4large number made use of the op-
portunity to visit friends and many
kindly greetings were exchanged. In
Wingham, the "Progreesive" Baseball
teem played a game with 'Winghant
team.. On the way up, big things
were predicted of the score the Pro- •
greesives would roll up against the
Winglunn players. There was a big
score, it is trne, but it was 17 to 1 in
favor of Wingham, and now the
"Progresswes" are wondering what

Golden Wedding.
A most happy and enjoyable family
reunitnewaS held on Saturday last, in
connection with the celebration of the
fiftieth anniversary of the marriage of
Mr. and Mrs, M. Walker, respected
residents of our town. The aged cou-
ple were born in Ireland, and there
also they were united in holy wedlock,
in 1854. After emigrating to Canada,
they settled for a time in Grey and
then removed to East Wawanosh, lot
82, con, 12, in 1850. Of the toil and
privations incident to clearing a farm
in those early days, Mr. and Mrs.
'Walker bore their share. One daugh-
ter and eight sons were born to them,
alt of whom are living and were pres-
ent with their families on Saturday
last. There are thirty-three grand-
children and one great-grandchild,
making the four generations. Among
those present were the only daughter,
Mrs. Anderson of Toronto, and her
husband; all the sone -Thomas of
Riversdale ; Jackson and Robt. A., of
Toronto; Elisha and Isaac of East
Wawanosh ; George, of Brussels; Jas.
and Wesley of 1-Vingbam, Besides
these, there were present -Mr. and
Mrs. A. Reid, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Cur-
rie, Mr. and Mts. J. T. Currie, Mr.
and. Mrs. Wes. Pattison, Bert. Reid
and sister, Miss Ida, also Mrs. Patti-
son of Wingham and jas. Jackson of
Teeswater, sister and brother of Mrs.
Walker, and a large number of other
relatives and neighbors, in all about
120. The reunion supper was spread
in a, tent erected, upon the lawn of
Wesley Walker, John street, and it
was indeed a festive gathering that
surrounded the tables, During the
evening, Mr. and Mrs. Walker were
presented with a Purse of Gold, as a
token of affection front theit sons and
daughter, Mr. Anderson of Toronto
accompanying it with an address, con-
veying on behalf of the daughter and
sons, the most kindly and filial senti-
ments and good wishes. Rev. Dr.
Gundy, Rev. D, Perri°, Rev. Mr. Mc -
Leah and others followed ht brief ad-
dresses of congrattilation. The pro-
grent was enlivened with recitations
by Miss Edith 'Walker, and a most
happy evening was spent. On Sab-
bath, at the request of the parents,
the daughter and sons, with other
relatives, attended service in the Brick
'church neer the old homestead, as a,
• reminder of bye -gone days. To cele-
brate the fiftieth tothiversary of their
wedding day falls to the lot of but
few. The Advance extends congtetto-
ktions to Mr. and Mrs. Walker, and,
trusts that the beautiful sunshine of
Saturday evening, may be an indiett-
don of the brightness •of the close of
their career, after having long with-
stood the storms that mote or less at-
tend. every life. We trust they nuay
be shared to mil other and their Ma-
, fives many yeas yet, and that nt the
nvetttide of life, it may ''be
with bright, prospects of its being
"better farther on,"

Tuesday last was evidence of the
facts above stated, When morning
dawned, a drizzling rain somewhat
discouraged those upon whom the
work of preparation had devolved.
The first special. train left Goderich
at 7.30 and it was feared that when it
reached. Winghem, there would be but
few on it, but it was crowded, show-
ing that the brethren of Goderich, dis-
trict are not easily deterred from cele-
brating July 12th with their brethren.
In a pouring ram, and in mud to their
ankles, Wingham lodge met the in-
coming trains. They were preceded.
by Wingham's excellent Band, and
the Highland piper and drummer,
About ten o'clock, the rain ceased,
the sunshine burst through the clouds,
the rest of the day was delightfully
finS, and the streets dried. Notwith-
standing the wet morning, which pre-
vented hundreds from coining, the
special trains from, Goderich, Strat-
ford, Durham, Mt. Forest and Kincar-
dine were crowded, and by noon, it is
estimated that over twelve thousand
people thronged our streets.
At 12e30 the Masters of the lodges
met in the lodge -room of 794 and de-
cided on the order of the procession:
Representatives were present from the
counties of Seat Grey, 'West Well-
ington, West Bruce, South Huron and
North Huron. It was decided to mar-
shal the procession by- districts; this
was done in the following order: -

It, was no small task to marshal] so
large a procession. Bros. Thos. Mc-
Lean, N. Johnston, County Director
of Ceremonies and A. Strong of How -
ick, by degrees got the brethren into
line for the nterch, which was by way
of Alfred street to Shuter, thence
southward to Diagonal mut Victotea,
--.-..-- • -
and then by way of Josephine street
back to the petit. Notwithstanding
this long marcb, several lodges had -
wetted the park, before the last had
commenced their march. It was said
by many who witnessed it, that it Was
the finest procession they had ever
seen ; certainly it was the finest ever _
seen in Wingham.
Not ane half of the people present
in the park could get near the stand,
to hear the speaking, yet thousands
listened to the excellent addresses.
•Bro. A. IL Musgrove as Chairman,
called upon Rev. C. C. Keine to open
with prayer, and. Bro.. R. Vanstoue,
Mayor of Wingham, extended a cor-
dial welcome to the visiting thousands.
Bro. Dr. T. Bradley, a veteran in the
ranks, then gave a brief but pointed
address on the origin of the ASSOCia-
tion, His remarks were well received..
This was followed. by an address front
Rev. Jos, Philp, B. D., of Kincardine,
who spoke on the great victory of
Waterloo, securing freedom from the
despot, Napoleon. Rev. R. Hobbs of
Strathroy, President of the London
Coeference, was the next speaker.
His address was characteristic of the
speaker, earnest, forceful and to the
point. Bro. ilobbs is enthusiastic,
and the enthusiasm under his spirited
address was contagious. Rev. Wm.
Lowe, Grand Chaplain for Ontario
West, followed in his usual humorous
and attractive manner. Bro. Lowe is
always listened to with pleasure. The
addresses were all listened to atten-
tively by the vast audience, and the
program closed with the usual votes
of thanks, and singing of "God Save
the King."
After the speaking was over, the
Lornes of Mt. Forest and the Maple
Leaf of Wingham played it friendly
game of Lacrosse. The Lornes are
fast players, but Winghaan boys never
played better and the battle was chief-
ly around Mt. Forest's goal. The
score was 2-2. is but fair to our
boys however to say, that one goal
was scored against them before they
had their own goal -keeper in position,
and as to the other, there is a suspi-
cion that the time was a little "long
drawn out" so that the game might be
a, "tie." It was a lively game,. but the
players were much handicapped by
the immense crowd.

Wingham's July 1.2th celebrations
are always a success, but that of 1001
was a record -breaker.

precedence and brought up the rear in
goodly numbers and form.
The Celebration Committee of L.O.
L. No. 704 (Wingham) are compli-
mented on the excellence of their ar-
rangements.
The lady Loyal True Blues of Wing -
ham and 'Walton were ready for the
procession, but through some over-
sight, carriages failed to arrive for
them.
Wingham was prettily clecorated.
Six arches, with appropriate mottoes,
spanned the streets. Business teen
and private citizens decorated their
premises in honor of the clay.
Wingbam's excellent Band, engaged
for the. day by Wingham Lodge, led
the great procession. Luck -now Band
rendered good service, but Lucknow
juniors were an attraction. They
certainly played well, and are a credit
to themselves, their town, and their
leader.
The crowd was so great, that it was
no easy matter to get the procession
out of the park and into it again.
Josephine street was lined from one
end to the other with at solid throng of - •
visitors, and thousands remt-n.(1"
