EGIBSON, Agent, Dryden District Activities WABIGOON--Due to the inspiration of the lately organized branch of the Women's Institute, the loyal citizens of Wabigoon and surrounding country- side celebrated the national holiday in the old-fashioned style. A continuous round of pleasure with enjoyment for all, opened with the ladies ball game, followed by a well contested match between the Wabigoon and Dinorwic teams, athletic sports for young and old, races for the youngest and feats of skill for the elderly boys and girls -- the most amusing being the pillow fight on the pole, wherein Otto Norman and Elmer Graham were the star performers, up and down like the famous Duke of York. ~The sports were directed by Alex Marnie, and H. C. Parson in their inimitable style and whose ready flow of eloquence added to the merriment. After the games and sports a canoe race, from the dock round Powder Is- land and back, drew the crowd to the water front. The Parenteau boys won first prize, coming in ahead with the Union Jack at the prow. A commodious refreshment tent under the direction of Mrs Don Bick- nell, Mrs Robert Burns, Mrs Melburn Wright, Mrs C. Rhind and Mrs Aaron, dispensed tez, coffee, sandwiches, cake and ice cream at very reasonable prices and a steady stream of patrons showed their apprecation of the efforts to feed the multitude. After the Ball game the teams were the guests of the Women's Institute to supper. As darkness set in, a salvo of rockets marked the close of outside festivities, which brought back to many the joyous days that were, before folks got too tired or new-fashioned to celebrate. A dance in the Hall--at which the Dinorwic players diffused sweet music for old time sets and dances, and no- body dared to Charleston--wound up the day. SAMSON AND THE LION May have been Dandelion. In these days of scientific investigation the motive power of the lowly yet pro- lific dandelion should certainly be looked into. A fellow citizen having an old roof and floor to move for some distance, organized a bee of neighbours. The roof was somewhat heavy until one dose of dandelion wine went round. At the second slug the crowd picked up the floor and walked away with it ! When all was finished and a third shot handed round, the crowd inquired from the host if he would not like his house moved into some other position, feeling able to tackle any contract. * WABIGOON---The fete arranged by the Wabigoon branch of the W. I. on Dominion Day proved a great success in every way. The weather being all that could be desired, brought quite a number of visitors to the afternoon sports, baseball match and te the dance in the evening. Ice Cream, Lemonade and refresh- ments, served in a tent by 'Mesdames Aaron, Burns, and Bicknell, were kept busy all afternoon. While Messrs Marine, Pearson, and Rhind directed the sports. An interesting sight during the after noon to the visitors, was the alighting of one of our forestry hydroplanes on the lake, though this is almost an every day sight to the residents of Wabigoon. Mrs Ponton, had the misfortune to slip and break her wrist at the dance on Thursday night, but after receiving medical attention at Dryden Hospital, was able to return home. Rev. C. F. Johnston, Student-in charge of St. Luke's, Dryden, conduct- ed Morning service and Sunday school on July 4th. During his visit he was the guest of Mr and Mrs Jack Wright. The baseball match played between Wabigoon and Dinorwic on July 1st, resulted in a victory for Wabigoon. Fa BARCLAY--The Barclay School held its closing exercise on June 30th, by having a picnic. After the children's races and tug-'o-war, the prizes were distributed. Short speeches were then given by the trustees and teacher. In the evening the ladies races were won by Miss Hagglund, Mrs Zentil, and 'Edna Taylor. The gentleman's race was won by Mr Hatfield. The ladies provided an excellent lunch, after which Rice Lake and Bed- worth played a game of football. The score being 1-0, in favor of Rice Lake. A jolly dance closed the days amuse- ment. The following Friday evening, the parents and pupils met at the School, and a short programme was rendered by the pupils. The teacher was pre- sented with a fountain pen.

Miss Powell, the Institute speaker, gave a very interesting lecture on the progress, aims and various helps of the Institute work, which was much ap- preciated by members and visitors. Miss Powell being a member of this organization for a number of years was an authority on her subjects, and left members feeling they had gained u wider understanding of the principles of the Institute work. After the lecture, the floor was cleared, dancing and refreshments en- joyed by all until the wee hours. The Institute take this opportunity of thanking the musicians who so ably assisted in making the evening a suec- cess, also Mr Knowles for the efficient manner in which he handled the floor management.

DINORWIC--A. number of Dinorwic people visited Wabigoon on Dominion Day, and a real good time was spent in watching the sports and baseball matches, many returning to Wabigoon by car for the dance in the evening. The Wabigoon branch of the W. I. are to be congratulated on the success of their fete and also hope it will not be long before there is another one.

NEW APPOINTMENT At Dominion Experimental Station, Kapuskasing, Ontario, Mr Adhemar Belzile, B.S.A. has been appointed Assistant Superintendent at the Dominion Experimental station, Kapuskasing, Ont., in the place of Mr J. L. Albert, B.S.A. who has been occupying this position for the past three years. Mr Belzile is no stranger to North- ern Ontario conditions, as he was as- sistant Superintendent at Kapuskasing in 1919, and was later transferred to the Experimental Station at La Ferme, which is situated in the Abitibi dist- trict of Quebec province, where he has remained ever since. His knowledge of northern conditions together with his ability to speak both the French and English language, are excellent qualifications for his work in Northern Ontario. Mr Bazil Roney, of Kapuskasing, Ontario, has been appointed clerk at the Experimental Station, replacing Mr W. A. Reid, who resigned some two months ago to accept a position with the Morrow and Beatty Construction Company. Mr Roney has been in Northern Ontario since 1911, and is very well known to many residents of the north. LADIES!

Peter Heenan, M.P. passed through Dryden Wednesday, on his way to Ke- nora. He did not look any the worse after busting up the Meighen Govern- ment. Mr and Mrs Thomas Graham and son, were up from Dinorwic Wednes- day. M. F. Cook, Agricultural Represen- tative, is attending a convention at Guelph, Ontario. Miss Eva Dixon left Wednesday to spend a few days with friends in Ke- nora. La : Prov. Constable Hake left yesterday on a trip to Port Arthur. T. W.. Thomson, Ignace, was a visit- or here Monday. The guy riding around town with the glasses on in Bailey's car the other morning, wasn't Harold Lloyd as every one thought, but was Marshall himself looking over the new road work. Miss Grace Campbell, of Winnipeg, spent the weekend in Dryden. Visitors from Oxdrift this week in- cluded:--Mr J. and Miss Lena Adams, Mrs J. S. Corner, Mrs T. J. Latimer, Mr and Mrs J. Skene, Mrs A.

Argumentum ad Verecundiam.-- The Kenora Examiner in its latest issue makes striking claims regarding the activities of Mr Heenan during the session of parliament that has come to its dramatic end. Surely Mr Wydeman has forgotten the most important: the fact that he sponsored the Bill to con- struet a railway from Dryden to Red Lake. Col. Machin Recovering-- The friends of Col. Machin will be glad to know that his condition, which' a week ago was extremely alarming and critical, is somewhat improved. The heart condition that has confined him to bed for some six weeks appar- ently has passed the crisis, and his chances for ultimate recovery are greatly improved. His condition is, however, still so serious that it will probably be at least another month or six weeks before he will be permitted to see his friends or any visitors and it will be at least several months before he is up and about again.

Popular Wedding in St Luke's Church here on Saturday at high noon, when Miss Emma Boyer, niece of Mr and Mrs Thos. Colliss, be- came the bride of Mr Frank Moore. The Church was beautifully decora- ted with summer blossoms, and the bride looked charming as she entered on the arm of her uncle, attired in a smart blue crepe-back satin with large picture hat of straw braid in matching tones, and carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley. The bride's sole attendant was Miss Sybil Thorpe, who was becomingly gowned in a sand georgette over sand and blue spot silk foulard. She also wore a large sand poke hat, with shoes and hose to match, and carried a large sheaf of blue blossoms.. Mr Erie Colliss supported the groom, the bride being given away by Mr T. Colliss. Rev.

The first n > of the Red Lake Lookout, puti.ned at Sioux Lookout is a very cred table product of our grow- ing neighbour town. bridge is now being constructed over Frog Rapids, a span of 470 feet, a link in the new highway from Sioux Lookout, under the direction of the northern development branch. "It will soon be possible to drive your car from Sioux Lookout to neighbouring towns," says the Red Lake "Lookout." Mr E. G. Rognon and his party have returned from a trip to the Red Lake district, his impressions in the main agreeing with earlier reports of Jack Reany and Gus Larson. What he saw renews his faith in our own section, where identical geological formation gives better surface indications than some of the Red Lake district. If ths surface showings on the Howey vein are continued with depth, the results, he believes, will prove one of the big- gest gold mines in the world.
