The "Review" was !pleued to have a chat with this venerable gentleman, who is in his fssu: year and came to this part of , Grey County a few months after the arrival of Archibald Hunterin 1842 to | what is now Durham. This link with ® Formality was thrown to the winds â€"\and a freeâ€"andâ€"easy style was the , feature of the event, Dr. David Jamâ€" |ieson was chairman for a brief proâ€" . | gram, and was very happy in his reâ€" marks %The doctor is another of those town builders, who has served his | municipality well. John M. Godfrey,é | Securities Commissioner of the Proâ€" | vince of Ontario, was present and in a little speech, reminisced of his| jearly days in Durham, when his father served as Methodist minister.| *here. Folk dances by several school‘ \girls were enjoyed and Susie Bell! iand Lorraine McArthur executed a' pretty number. The pipeband of the |48th Htighlanders was also present, | ‘and gave of its stirring â€" music. Some four or five hundred attended | the Garden Party, and whoever first mentioned the idea of such an event ]had a happy thouught. Just what is an old timer? In a general way all the returning sons and daughters to the "old town" were put in this category and were welâ€" comed as such. But the average oldâ€" timer, compared to Mr. John Melnnia Perhaps the event carrying the most sentiment of the Reâ€"union, was the Oldâ€"time Garden Party held on the public school grounds, Tuesday afternoon. It was a delightful funcâ€" tion and even if it were one of the "free" events of the week, it was fully appreciated. OLD TIME GARDEN PARTY HELD . _ ON SCHooL GRounps Elden Whitmore and Gordon Mcâ€" Girr, local entrants, came second in the 100 yard race, and the halfâ€"mile event respectively. cond, as well as other placings. Durham "footers" came second with ten points, Chesley had two points, and Hanover one. * Much interest was taken in the foot races and the various classes were keenly contested.. Owen Sound with 23 points earned the shield emblemâ€" atic of first ranking, the city‘s enâ€" trants winning four firsts and a seâ€" Batteries: Toronto â€" Duff, Turner Turvie, Blake and Buchanan.

' Findlay‘s Dairy of Toronto and the| Owen Sound ‘City‘ team engaged in | !a. nineâ€"inning exhibition game of baseball, the latter club gaining the 14â€"13 verdict. However the Ontario ’ca/pilal had the best team on the field, the impression be‘ng gained that they "eased up" to allow the, Grey County squad to catchâ€"up who were six runs behind at one time / However the "Good Samaritan" act â€"if such it wasâ€"plus a change of, pitchers for the Toronto team gave the Owen Sounders . such renewed vigor that they couldn‘t be stopped until too late as it proved. Besides a sucucessful run splurge, the team from north of Durbham tightened up in the‘r fielding the last three innâ€" ings and permitted Findlay‘s Dairy . team only three runs in that time. Despite the eventual score the Owen Sounders were lucky to win. $ One lacrosse lineup comprised Mac Saunders, Jim McLauchlan, Mulvey Cowan, Lou Lavelle, Alec Graham, Sam{ Wendorf. The other team had Bob Saunders, Harry Lavelle, Bert McDonald, Vernon Elvidge, Ern. Mcâ€" Donald and Aaron Ries. l Not enough of the Oldâ€"timers couldl be rounded up to provide two teams I’of the regulation number of players| but plenty of "wim and wigor" wasl' ’exerclsed by the two sixâ€"man teams that took the field. There were no| lno goal keepers and it was not re-,I corded that there was any twineâ€"‘ buiging even with the absence of the net guardians. Dr. Brad. Jamieson refereed and to show the nature of the game, no player actually crossed words with the belltooter, when ord-" ered off. Suspicion remains to some | that the offending perflormer welâ€"! comed the "rest" as the old "wind" wasn‘t what it used to be. | l cars was a problem in itself but was |bhandled we believe in a satisfactory ’m&nner. Once out of the cars the | occupants sought shade from the blistâ€" | ering heat, as no grandstand and only the odd shade tree was available. The 48th Highlanders‘ Band under \direction of Capt. Slatter, gave genâ€" erously of musical selections throughâ€" out the afternoon, as well as acting as accompanist for the dance numâ€" bers performed by several girls, The afternoon proved a rare opportunity for hundreds of oldâ€"timers to become acquainted . f Lacrosse between two teams of Oldâ€" timers, a baseball game featuring Torâ€" ’onto and Owen Sound teams as opâ€" ponents, and foot races, provided the‘ ’chief sporting interest. Bozo and his clown companion, aided by some flne! Scotch dances and Irish jiggs perâ€"| formed by eight young girls in cos-' tume, added more enterta‘inment for| those who could see or hear them.l TORONTO The sports program of Civic Holiâ€" day, attracted the largest crowd in years, to the Fall F@ir grounds, a conservative estimate of 2500 being generally accepted as the number present.

Woodley of London at their cottage at Sauble Beach. _ _War veterans paraded in the rain, | over 40 strong, on Tuesday afternoon ‘and were reviewed by Brig.â€"General ‘Draper, Police Chief of Toronto. The local exâ€"soldiers were glad to see their old military leader, who comâ€" plimented them on their spirit and fine turnout. He also paid tribute to Durham‘s unique scenic beauty. Folâ€" lowing the inspection the troops parâ€" aded to the cenotaph,where a wreath was deposited on the monument in memory of fallen comrades, by Lt. | Col. F. F. Hunter, M.P.P. Nearly 17 years have gone by since last post was sounded over their graves, but memories of those heroic days reâ€" main ever green. While in Durham ’Gen. Draper as a guest of Mayor W. H. Kress. Rev. R. F. Mercer and Mr. Edâ€" ward Fee were guests on Sunday of Mr and Mrs John Ritchie, Mr and Mrs Will Ritchje and _ Anna, were recent visitors of Mr and Mrs. W. Blyth . , E. F.

Hartley, Mrs Lorne Somerville, Reâ€" |becca McMillan, Brock Grant and Mr. Chapman. Owing to lack of ! space, the many fine sentimgnts exâ€" pressed must be omitted, but what was noteworthy was the number of tributes to the late Principal, Thos. Allan. A minute"s silence, with all standing, was observed to his memory{ In their former classâ€"rooms, Misses Margaret and A. C. McKenzie were idolized by dozens of their former pupils. Spelling matches were held in each room and it was plainly noâ€" ticeable that discipline was very much lacking. In fact there was more whoopee and disorder than order. . Anything and everything was permitted. But one thing was missâ€" ing and that was the plaintive human cry from the side aisle, "please teach-‘ er, may I leave the room ?" ‘ A motion of appreciation to Dr. Grant and Miss Belle McGirr was passed, for their fine history of Durâ€" ham published . Other speakers were Rev. Charles Leeson of Indiana, and Joseph Stewâ€" art of Montreal (son of the late Rev. Alex. Stewart, first Baptist minister) Miss Margaret McKenzie, Mrs John McGowan, Miss Sarah Woodland, Mrs | Mr. J. A. Graham,, in charge of the school reâ€"union, did not have a class conducted as many wished for, but following registration, he spoke in a eulogistic manner of early school days and early teachers, such as the late Jas. Winterbourn (seven of his old pupils were present.) Then folâ€" lowed Miss McKinley and Miss Laura McKenzie. Mr Graham stated it was his 51st year as a teacher and aJsoJ his last. Starting with the school bell ringâ€" ing on Tuesday morning, the Public School was the scene of joyous and merry throngs of exâ€"pupils. Many arrived garbed.in girl and boy cosâ€" tume, and many were reminiscent of hAappy days of yore.
