D, D. Palmer, founder of chiroipraèticë and a native of Port Perry. Tli-eee 1000 delegates -and friends visited the ‘birthplace of the first chiropractor on -iho .occasion of the dedication /of a public park on his memory. -While Palmer Park, on the shores of Lake S-ougog, was the main point of attraction, hundreds of visitors viewed the old Palmer home a few hundred yards from the park. The building is slightly changed from the time of ninety years ago, when Dan- iel, Palmer assisted bis father as the village shoemaker. (By I Seymour Wyns) Playing without the services of several regulars, Port Hope Ontarios won the baseball toumaanent at New- castle on: Monday. The Ilopers took Bowmanvi lie Royals into damp 5 to 4 and then outscored Newcastle in the final 5 to 2. The losers had gained the upper bi'acquel by handing 1STewt-o-nville a 7 to 3 trouncing. In the first tilt, two old' rivals, Port Hop-e and Bowmanyfflle clashed, the Iloper-s " winning -by the skin of Freddie Ough’s mouth, 5 to 4. Both: squads were far from, .•full strength, but at the same time turned in a / icpo'wd-p-lbasing brand of ball. Dave Osborne, late- of Dan-forth Aces, Toronto':? best senior team, toed the rubber for the Royals, while Hookey Devine, who never pitched a game in his life before, -surprised everybody .by the sterling effort Ire put forth. The lanky Osborne had the Easterners at his mercy except in- the 1-st frame when,; they sealed up the issue with four markers. The Ontarios com- pleted their Scoring in the 4th heat, Cresset -scoring on a much disputed balk. Devine held the Rulbberto-wn lads scoreless1 till the 4th innings' when Hicks, who- doubled cantered home on: Bob Bates’ triple. The Royals finally solved Devine’s tossing in the 6th when- they tallied -thrice, but the rally Mît one run short. Taking down- the barring honors of the -contest was Douglas who- guard- ed the hot -corner for the Hill town la*. The third sacker had1 three hits while Dempsey, .Grosse t-t, Osborne and Bates slapped out two safeties each. Lineup; Bownrmvife, II.

They had the prize fish near the boat when it made a mighty plunge, fouling the line and jerking the rod from the boat. After dragging for awhile in ,an: endeavour to rescue the rod the pair gave up in disgust. The second game brought together the two cities entered1 in the tourney, Newcastle and N ewtonvihe. The Easterners eoiuM- well- foe termed the Ramblers, having players from near and far. Bill Brunt toyed with the opposi- tion till the 6th frame when he gave way to Ellliott, thus saving the Wuipibo-n'e’ for the final game, New- castle were held -scoreless till the 4th frame when two- hits produced as many runs, Three tallies were -add- ed in the next chukker and an addi- tional two in the last innings.

Prof. J. B. Reynolds, of Guelph, was guest speaker on Satur- day and Rev. J. R. Bi-ek, Whitevale, returned to his old charge of some years: ago for Sunday services.

Reynolds, Mr. Baker being a pupil of 80 years ago. The school dates back t-o the early lSOOis. In the 18-50’s: the name of the village, : a few miles northeast of Oshlawa, was changed from Pifcbard- t-own to Sblina. Galled together by John Hughes Sir., schoolmaster at the time, a nnrriber of young men of the community met ait the school house. Six letters were written on the black- board, and each tried different eom- biritiitjrons. After a vote on -the words thus formed, Pitehardtown passed into the dislcard and iSolin-a was born, -Sblina school.lays claim to having prioduiced more professional men from among its -pupils than any other school in Durham Comity. .

They had honored' the past 'by countless solemn ceremonies, headed by the magnificent Drumhead Ser- vice in Rivevdale Bark on -Sunday. They .reelcfo-rated the: present by a stirring parade of all ranks and all units, by a thotiSiand impromptu song-f tots," street-dances,. revelries, ribaldries and: reminiscences. 'They laid a cornerstone .for the future by drawing up a list of resolu- tions and' forming a continuing or- ganization which may make them a political bloc of consequence in Clan- ada’s. future.

It was a nip and tuck affair all the w-ay with one - team leading then1 the other, with the final result ! being Forestry 14, Oshawa 13. Ken, Neal, pitching' for the For- estry team, had a good hop on the ball and h-ad1 six strikeouts to his credit -and nev-er .issued a walk in,the seven innings, while M. Mullen for the visiting team had seven strike- outs and -issued six free passes on balls. Forestry Scored two run's in the first innings when Goo-per and Ogden. crossed1 the plate and Osliawa came bia'ck in their half of the 1st with five runs iby E. Mullen, Gulliver, Sityer, W. Taylor and Hughes. In the sec- ond Forestry secured one run by Gla-nville, who was safe on- -a fielder’s choice and scored on Cooper’s sin- gle; while Oshawa retaliated with one run by Gulliver, who singled and scored o-n ‘S'tyer’s two-bagger. Both teams were blanked in the third, but Forestry dame back strong in- th-e fourth when Convier drove out a. home run to start the innings, (Coop- er doubled and scored1 on Ogden’s single, Neal walked and Woods clear- ed, the bases with a home run to clear the bases, making "the score 9 to 6 for Forestry, then Oshawa -eam-e back in their half with five runs to again take the lead, runs being scored by E. .Mullens, -Styer, W.

The reunion was -not /without its tragedies; About 700 men were treat- ed at the Corps hospital. Aic-cidents in downtown Toronto were numerous. Three fatalities- fol- lowed reunion week-end and there were hundreds' of lesser accidente. Damage was estimated to be con- siderably less than op the oceasion- of the reunion fou-r years ago. Police state that in the majority of . cases of open vandalism investigation showed that those responsible , were not veterans. It was a. great event. Many veter- ans1 met pails that they, fought with twenty year? ago, that brought back memories of the war sea reel' fields and the dwasted towns, cities and villages of France and Belgium, which brought back the desire to celebrate that great victory in one of the ways of a soldier, out for a good time.
