Cam-Ml. Council Guests of Grey Regiment. . On Friday evening: the" Warden and the members of the (Itmncil accepted the invitation of Col. G. D. Fleming to visit the camp of the Grey Regiâ€" ment at Rockclifl'e Rifle Ranges. The shooting on the ranges. the dinner at the officers” mess, the speeches and the musical program were all most, thoroughly enjoyed by the members of the Council and other county of- ficials present. The session of the Council which is just drawing to a close. has had connected with it a large amount of uninteresting. but very necessary business. and so when the invitation to visit. the camp came to the coun- cillors they were pleased to accept it. The council went to camp by motor. and immediately a shooting competition between the members of the council and the officers of the regiment was staged. Mr. George A. Bothwell. who has not been on the ranges for some Considerable time, knocked out. eight bull’s eyes in eight shots. but Major H. E. Pembroke did the same for the regiment. The scores totalled 39’s for the officers and 388 for the County Council. 0n the conclusion of the match the council was shown over the newly- repaired ranges and the whole camp from the kitchens to the orderly tent were pronounceail the best laid out and the most. complete camp they had ever seen. Jbst before dinner, a Hawaiian orchestra. composed of Ptes. \Vesley Armstrong, Gerald and Kenneth Large and Frank Bunt, of Flesherton. played several pieces. to the delight. of the large audience which gathered. The dinner served in the ofiicers’ mess tent would have done credit to a first-class hotel and the whole was prepared on such stoves as a military camp boasts of. All were hungry and partook 0f the meal DI‘OVldeiil with zest. The County Council The prominent speakers of the evâ€" ening were. seated at the head of thel hollow square and the officers were interspersed with the \‘iSltOI‘S. Col. Fleming acted as {OftslnlflSiE‘I‘ and. chairman. The toast to "The King” was. as usual, replied to by the sing- ing of the‘National Anthem. Col. Fleming expressed the pleasure it gave the Regiment to entertain the Council. The Grey Regiment has done honor to the. county many times and he thanked the council for their assistance and support in the past. The toast “to the Canadian Militia" was responded to by Brig. D. Car- michael, M.P.P.. who. as did every speaker of the evening. spoke of the pleasure it gave him to be at. the gathering. It. was a pleasure to meet the. members of his own County Council and also to foregather with} his comrades of the Canadian Corps and the Canadian Militia. “We did great. things tOgether and loved and honored one another and I am glad so many are continuing their work in the militia?” said Brig. Carmich- ael. The militia is a medium of ob- taining habits of obedience and com- mapd. The militia new has the traâ€", dition of the Canadian Corps to up- hold and a soldier should be the best type of our sitizenship â€"'vv Th; {cast “to Canada,” véas replied to by “Padre” Elliott. .Thetoast was one which challenges. the; aaepfat 10"11119130 UVUL uuvvvwâ€"u D .7 Mr. John Parker, the County Treaâ€" ‘siirer, thanked the regiment officers for their kind invitation to the din- ner. He spoke of being present at. the time the 3lst Regiment was or- ganized, and when the colors were presented when Col. Pollard was pre- sent. He was proud to be there 'to see his old friends and the bOys. ReeV'se Calder. McTavish, Sing and Buttmell all spoke briefly in appre- eiation of the way in which the umncil had been entertained.

Government like 0”“? g1 eat torce.- for good, “em a number of years ahead of the place they would be years hence. Crown Attm‘ney T. H. Dyre, and Dr. John B’chrthur spoke briefly. Reeve ,Mc- ”Diwali in his speech referred to Mr. 311thwell's address, remarking that. he did not. know now whether Mr. {Bothwell was “II.F.O. or Spiritualist.” The officers proposed the thst “to our Visitors,” and sang “For They Are Jolly Good Fellows.” Warden Howey made the first reply. It was a great honor to be at the dinner; the Council was exceedingly well pleased with the \dinner. Should the Regiment ask for monetary as- sistance the Council would be very favorable to such requests. All the county was proud of the Grey Regi- ment, 147th, and 248th Battalions. [”13th 1.3.0139 ullu H1. 1,-an oâ€"vâ€" Mr. John Miller, the daddy 0f the Council," said he was happy to be rise to large fields of service and naâ€"~ tional helpfulness. We must go a- head looking to our past and we will do our bit for Canada. - Bet'ore Major Rutherford and Capt. Slade spoke of the pleasure the Regi- ment. had in entertaining the Coun- cil, Col. Fleming,r paid a great tribute to the uil‘icers who were acting with him in the camp. They were effiâ€" cirnt. in {wary particular and as fine gentlemen as could be found any- where. Both Visitors and Officers grim: three hearty cheers to conclude the, program. Below) the Council left for town a quaI-tetto of otl’icers sang several most apmfccilated numbers. The whole evening: was enjoyed by both visitors and hosts. DURHAM’S “BLUEBIRD” TEAM DBPBATBD MOUNT FOREST The lacrosse game on the show; grounds here last night between {he BlueBirds and the ‘Mount Forest Lornes was a walkover for the Durâ€" ham team, the final tally being 14-2. By quarters the teams stoo'd 4-0, 7-1, 9-1 and 14-2. While Mount Forest did not have their full lineâ€"up, on the play last. night, the balance of their team will have to be good ones to hold the locals, who scored almost at will in all four periods. While in- teresting to watch. and full of fun for the small crowd in attendance,- the one-sided score and the evident ease with which the locals handled their opponents became monotonous at times. Mount Forest, however, have “thel makin’s” and will be heard from? later if they stick together. Dur- ham’s team, too, is young, generally speaking, and will be much better with another year’s experience.

THE POWER OF GAELIG SPEECH Highlami Scoismon claim that, Gaelic has potentialities unknown {.0 OUH‘I’ inngnos. Just as rats will do- sm‘t a barn in which the bag-pipes have. boon played, Gaelic Speech can not only charm the birds out. of the trees. hut is the languag: of com.- mam] fur mortals. Proof of this is furnished bv the 10110“ ing news dis- patch 1mm St. Thomas, 011t.,\VhiCh recently appeared in the l‘orontO Glube: Crown Attorney McCrimmon demâ€" onstrated the potentialities of the Gaelic tongue in the Police Court: too-day when a party of Russians and Poles were on the carpet in connec- tion With an assault case arising from a moonshine manufacturing ex- posure. A lively altercation between the complainant, Mrs. Mokrydy, and her friends, and the accused, Philip Nikifor, ensued. Chief Armstrong called in vain for order. and Magis- trate Maxwell’s gavel had no effect. Then Mr. McCrimmon drew his six feet of Glcngarry manhood to its full height, pointed a stern index finger at the Poles, and let fly some choice selections in Gaelic. The chatter stopped as if by magic, and the forâ€" eigners gazed at Mr. McCrimmon in respectful silence. -1‘ _-A-- - \Jvr- ~1vwâ€" ‘ “They seem ‘to understand all you said,” remarked Maxwell. ‘ “A bit of Gaelié will step any- thing,” replied Mr. McCrimmon, ufactufers and Marketers of 1m; Motor Oils and Marketa; in of Gafgoyle Mobiloil .
