I cannot see however, that we gain any profit, pleasure or pride in having the water- front become a weekly resort of a throng of strangers who use the waterfront advantages in a manner objectionable in many. ways. b= Is there any visible evidence that these persons have any desire to pur- chase property here?

Sleep, Howard and Victor, of Lindsay, visited with Mr. and Mrs. I. Beadle on Monday. Mrs. I. Beadle met with a painful accident on Sunday afternoon. Mr. Chas.. Beadle was visiting his parents for the day and was taking them out for a drive. Mrs. Beadle on getting into the car had._the misfortune to strike her head on the top of the car, receiving such a gash as Toure medical attention. Master Harold Scott received a 'severe kick from one of the horses while bringing them in from the pasture on Saturday evening. We trust there will be nd serious results from the knock. I guess Harold, it will be just as well to keep further away from the heels of eveh a quiet horse, especially if there is a dog which is apt to give the horse a nip. The annual Sunday School picnic was held at the Park at Beaverton on Thursday aftérnoon. Mr. Frank Hard- ing took a truck load of the younger people. There were some.130 attend- ed the picnic and reported\a happy time. - We are-sorry a ngmber of people were not present owing to the report that the water had been con- demned. The water of course is a big drawing card at a.picnic and it is too bad some people have to resort to in- water not safe for bathing. However, I am sure the Health Department would soon have notices put up to that effect and there would surely be some account of it in the daily papers. You cannot blame people for not wanting to take a chance. We were yery pleased to fave Rev. Mr, Wallace of Greenbank with us on Sunday evening. . Mr, Wallace took as his text, Luke 24 and 89, "Behold My Hand". One remark noticed was how important one's hands are in getting a position. How the stain of nicotine on the fingers invariably is against young men in many- positions. In summing up Mr. Wallace's remarks, he brought to our attention how im- portant the blood-stained hands of Jesus were.

Rev. Mr. Flindall had charge of the VALENTIA WINS HALL cup Valentia are winners of the Drs. Hall silver cup, emblematic of the championship of the Tri-Township [ league by defeating Seagrave -in-the deciding game played at Valentia on Wednesday evening last. It was-a see-saw battle from start to finish with Seagrave having a lead of six runs at the end of the fifth inning, when Jack Mark was relieved by Doug Wallace and in turn by Neil McMillan. Neither could hold the homesters in check and before they could be. stopped they were leading by 12-8. With a final rally Seagrave only to have "Valentia tie it Op and gcore the winning run in their half of the eighth, with the game being called on account of darkness.

Tournament 'being held on "Seagrave diamond on Saturday afternoon, August 1st, com- prising" teams from Salem, Sunder- land, Valentia and Seagrave for the Drs. Hall & Hall Trophy."

Cobb, of Weyburn, Sask, who is supplying in Brantford during the month of July, Mrs. N. Mitchell of Toronto, and Mrs. R. Thompson of Whitby, visited with Mr. and Mrs. Ww. J. Rogers recently. T It was with varied thoughts many listened to_ the radio broadcast on Sunday morning during the ceremony of the unveiling of the Vimy War Memorial. Many thoughts of pleasant associations were recalled, many sad thoughts of the comrades they had to leave behind, and many hearts ached anew as we thought of the loved ones who never returned. And yet many homes were indifferent. We can un- derstand why--these homes were not touched by war. : ' The following poem appeared in one It was written by Ewart Miller, a son of Rev. Geo. A. Miller, of Ingersoll, formerly of Greenbank, at one time a teacher in Seagrave School. Several poems written by Ewart have ap- peared in this paper.during the past year.
