Pp? ------------ EOD ATTENDED THE VETERAN'S RE-UNION AT TORONTO The following veterans attended the Re-Union in Toronto, last Sunday-- Ingram, J. Tinsley, Bert. Mac- asda I. R. Bentley, I. C. Mitchell, .. McLean, E. Nor- man, Ted. Jac Mr. Hayden says that it was the most wonderful demon- stration he had ever seen. It was a real re-union. The happy, almost wild greetings when chums of old war days met. Everybody found a friend, and the old life of adventure and excite- ment were lived again. It was casy to pick out friends because every unit had its distinguishing colored beret. No event of the past century has been Gregor, J. A. so great as that re-union of veterans upon the twentieth anniversary of the declaration of the Great War, Imagi- nation can help you see the picture.

The Scugog girls displayed some fine playing, and the game endéd after seven innings, the final score being 9-6 in Scugog's favor, But we certainly made up for our one loss on August 6th. The draw was made ,and as usual, we drew Brooklin. Uxbridge and Scugog played first, and Uxbridge came out on. top. Then it was our turn. We were a bit shaky at first, because Brooklin usual- ly get the breaks when they play in Port; and they had the field first, too. But fortune was with us on Monday, and we certainly made use of it. The game lasted for five innings, ending with a score of 36-13 in our favour. Then we played off with Uxbridge. Uxbridge have been showing some good work lately, and their future seems bright. However, Monday seemed to be our winning day, and we defeated Uxbridge 19-9. And so, for) the first time in history, Perry Girls' Softball team won a tour- nament at home. Well, even though we lost one game !with some gusto and unconcealed con- last week our record still remains good. We have lost only one game out of nineteen that we have playea this season. We wish to thank the Port Perry people who cheered us on to victory at the Fair Grounds on Monday. There's nothing like the support and . interest .of the town citizens to encourage a team. And so ends the softball news for this week; we hope to have more good news for the next edition. re > EDD OBITUARY Harrison Height (Harry) McKinley On Sunday, July 29th, the people of this vicinity were shocked to hear of the sudden death of Harry McKinley.

The sympathy of the community is extended to the bereaved family. BOWLING NEWS The Port Perry Bowling Club held a home jitney on Tuesday evening. oir, let's cat." "WE VISIT THE LEGISLATURE" By Herbert Cobb We had never seen the Saskatche- wan legislature at work. True, we had read a good deal, in the news- papers of its proceedings. In fact there .are some M.I.A's with whom we are well acquainted. But it did seem to strike us as rather bad grace, that living so close to the capital city, we. had not so much as looked in at| the door of that august chamber-- that sanctus Sanctorium where our Provincial Fathers labor so diligently on our behalf. 3 So one day last week we cashed a small cheque and made the venture. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon we were comfortably seated in the front row of the east gallery, all keyed up with excitement, There was a neighbour on our right, a chap about 20 years old. He was a most loquacious sort of fellow. From the verbal explosions that he emitted from time to time, we | gathered that he did not like govern- ments of any variety. Once when we the Port] {happened to remark that this was our first visit in the legislature, he damp- ened our spirits with the gruff retort, |. "Huh! ya won't see much." It was tempt that he informed us, when the members had entered and taken their seats, "All those men down there are either Knights of Columbus or Masons." We asked rather timidly, if there might not be one or two Orange- men among them. - He looked at us with some suspicion and snapped us off with the remark that he was re- ferring to secret societies and not fruit dealers. We were quite cowed! But now everybody is standing up! All eyes are turned to the front where a man is entering, carrying a heavy brass club. He seems to be protect-| ing the approach of another man, who is dressed in what looks to be a sort of wedding garment and a featherless tricorne on his head. There being no evidence of mutiny at the entrance of this 'strangely dressed gentleman, : the "brass 'club was deposited on"'a table, which "performance was. ac- companied with resounding whacks, as if to assure anyone, who might be- come unruly, that it was solid and not hollow. We. noticed that it rested exactly between the premier and the leader of the ofposition. We suppose that this is where it is usually needed. We afterward learned that the strangely dressed man, who had now taken a seat at the front, is called the spéaker. Rather fumfy, we thought, because he only spoke twice that we could really hear, all through the afternoon. The first time was when he offered a prayer. My neighbour to the right sniffed twice, quite audibly. "Fancy praying," he fairly snorted, "and then getting ready to fight one another." But, "more things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of," for the newspapers that evening commented on the afternoon's session, reported it-as one of the sweetest, most brotherly and most af- fectionate yet held. "We conclude that those sessions when it js otherwise, is due to tle absence of the prayer. The second time that this gentleman spoke was when he said, "Boys it's almost "There was a wild Mrs. McFarlane and Mrs. C. Beare scramble for the doors. As far as we played off for first prize, Mrs. Mec- Farlane winning, Mrs. C. Beare won second prize. The men's prizes were won by Mr.! S. Jeffrey 1st, Mr. A.

We presumed that being compelled to J sit apart so long they were determined to be together at the supper table. It seemed that whenever a member left the chamber and returned he al- ways made a bow to the speaker. Not that we ever saw that gentleman acknowledge the courtesy. He was too busy most of the time reading. a book from which he- was copying notes. But still the members bowed, For they never could tell when he might look up and catch them sitting down without that formality. And it is better to be safe than sorry. But of all the bowers there was only one that could bow to our liking and the prize goes to Hon. T. C. Davis» For the most of them seemed merely to shrug their shoulders at the speaker. Their posture suggested a half meas- ure of defiance. It was as if they said, "Take that will you." But Mr. Davis' bow would have done honour to the court of St. James. We felt as if he was saying, "Graciously pleased to meet you, I trust that I see: you well." Mr. Davis was called out, or just went out, many times during the afternoon, but we tried hard not to miss one bow that he made as he re- entered. They were worth seeing, Now it happens that the present scribe is in the profession of the ministry, We will be very frank and confess that we have been somewhat troubled of late.

"Port Perry got gway to flying start when'a walk and an error on Sunder: land's part scored three runs for the visitors, Gibson, the lead-off man for Port grounded to the pitcher, Wil- liams walked, McGill singled on an error and a single by Philip scored Williams and advanced McGill to third. S. Beare struck out for the second out and a single by O. Beare scored Philips. Gerrow grounded out to re- tire the side. Clarke, pitching for Port Perry, held the Sunderland batters in check up until the sixth, when two errors by Port infield enabled Sunderland to push across three runs and then in the seventh they sedred twice more.
