A large number of our villagers enjoyed a picnic at Ethel last Thurs. day afternoon. The day was an ideal one for the event, and the crowd took full advantage of it. They each other to their heart's content, and tried hard to imagine that they were young once more; After supper the men played baseball; and the way the twirlers threw the spit ball, and the batters knocked out home runs, was a sigbt to gladden the eyes. In fact, bad doe Kelley," Manager of the Toronto Baseball Clab, been there to witness the comtest, he would haye at cnce engaged some of the heavy bitters and fast runners at a princely salary. In fact, we saw a telegram a few days afterwards offering one of them the position of first baseusan of the Toronto Base- ball Club at a salary of $4.000a year. Only pressing business en- gagements prevented the recipient of the offer from .at once accepting. However, laying-all jokes aside, every one enjoyed the picnic immnensely, except one youngster who got a thorough duckmg by falling off the raft, and his mother, who also re- ceived a wetting in rescuing ber boy. The drenching spoiled the afternoon for both of f them. Camp arving oF on he Grand. My first experience in camping happened in this way : On July 20th my son-in-law, Mr. S. Hill, of Weston, bis wife and fam- ily, came to visit us at St. George with the intention of going camping on the Grand River for a few weeks holiday. We very soon completed all arrangements and on, the 23rd July pitched our tent on Mr. R. P. Irving's farm near Glentnortis, about seven miles front' Galt, fainong 'velar, 'e'm pine, maple and,oak. trees. The Grand River wended its way among huge boulders, stones and pebbles at the foot of our camp making the balmy breezes ever fresh and cool. On the right bank of the river, large trees of all species grew in abundance, very similar to.those on the left bank where we had pitched our tent. All necessary fael was obtained |inear the camp, great pine stumps being waslied ap during the floods in the spring which made splendid material for cooking and camp firer. Good spring water was obtainable only a few yards from the camp. Another company | of canspers from | Galt about fifteen in number took jJadvantage of an old house, the prop- erty of Mr. Irving, situated within a stone's throw of our camp, and there settied down for a regular camp life. With nothing but fishing, hunting, bathing, cating, sleeping, reading, baseball, football, etc., to occupy our time we thoroughly enjoyed our camp life. After dark, whe. the camp fire was made, parties from the other camp, and callers from the neighbogring towns with our own party would gather around the fire and sing old favorite songs for many an hour. and Mrs. S.

Anyone who has never been camy- ing does not know whatpleasure they are missing and shoukl eertainly avail themselves of the first possible opportunity to spend a few weeks holidaying in this way. J.
