PICNIC AT FLESHERTON VOL. 60.â€"N0. 3133 Last Friday Was Big Day flor South- Bast Grey Political Association, and Lar e Crowd Gathered to Witness arlous Events on Pro- gramme. All roads led to Jake Lever’s hush. on» mile north of Flesherton last Friday afternoon, for this was the date on which thfl l'nited Farm- ers of South-East Grey met in the his: picnic so extensive]? advertised during the past monti. The day was a most auspicious one and it. is estimated that approximately 3.000 people. availed htemselves of the opportunity and were in attendance during the afternoon and evening. Some plared the, attendance at 5,000, hut. (me of the officials thought that the 3,000 estimate would pos- s'ihly he a conservative estimate and much nearer the real mark.

Culp, trafl‘ic officer on the Provincial Highway from Arthur to Owen Sound, was in our sanctum one day last week and in the course of our conversation we learned that he is about to sit down hard on the reckless motorists and speed- tlend drivers should they come up in this part of the province to dis- play their prowess. Already he has two young Han- over men before Magistrate Laid- law, whose cases will be heard on Saturday, and in one day this week he picked up no less than eight motorists doing more than «’10 miles an hour. Another infraction of the law that Officer Culp intends to deal severe- ly with is the practice of certain drivers in speeding too fast through small villages. The law calls for twelve miles an hour at all rural intersertions. with ten miles the limit in towns and Villages. In some instances. like Dornoeh, Wilâ€" liamsi'ord or Uri-hard, there are motorists who scarcely slacken speed at. all and these he intends to pl'i'isecule, This notice to be exact is pub- lished at Mr. Culp’s request, who says that ho does not. want to take any advantage of motorists. hut intends to insist on some consid- eration [wing shown residents in Hm smallm' contros, ' MASONIC OFFICIALS INSTALLED FRIDAY Durham Lodge No. 306, A.F. 8: A.M’., Held Regular Installation Thurs- day Bvening of Last Week. i8 ~3hmmon'od to Saint.

Peters, who for the past four years has been :tationed at the Durham and Zion pastorate-s ur tlw United church here, preach- ed his final sermon to rings? con- gregations on Sunday and left 'es- terday for his new home at ea- ford, where he has been stationed. Rev. Mr. Fettes and family arrived in town Monday afternoon and will be settled in their new home. in the. parsonage in the course of a few days. Ln_common with his congregation The Chronicle feels a personal loss in the departure of Mr. Peters. * Though not a member of his con- gregation, there were few men who entered our sanctum for whom we entertained a more wholesome re- spect Jhan for Mr. Peters. Broad- minded. widely travelled, and hav- ing a respect for views other than his own, Mr. Peters was popular with the citizens of the town gen- erally, irrespective of their relig- ious leanings. A minister of the gospel and a thorough christian gentleman. he held the esteem of all in that hP was always able to step down to our common level. dis- ‘ cuss the events of the day. set us‘ right on a mutitude of subjects on which we desired informatitm. and altogether behave in a thoroughly human manner. Mr. Peters posses- sed a fund of invaluable informa- tion. had an unlimited sense of humor. and a disposition that. would make him popular in any company. While we regret his departure, however, it. is not going to tnterlere in any way with the heartiness with which we welcome his succes- sor, ltev, Mr. Felies and family. and in either case wish holh success in their new lields.
