Colonel O Brien began his history K with a sketch of the Jesuit missions : in this counrty, awvay back in the sevnteenth century. Coming" down to the beginning` of the English set- : tlement, he told of the visit of Governor Simcoe in 1793, and of the construction of Yonge street to Hol- iland Landing. The building of this , road, as of many others at that time, - had 21 military object, it being de sired to establish a short road Iroml fvom Lake Ontario to the British ` outpost of Drummond Island. From Holland goods and passengers were _ lconveyed by boat to Kempenfeldt, ithence across the line to Willow- Creek and down the Nottawasaga _` River to the Georgian Bay. In 1811 a start was made at opening the ' P-enetanguisihene road. When that place was occupied as a military post i(luring' the war, a strong effort was] `made to complete this road. A party iof militia were sent up for the pur- apose and afterwards during: the win- .` .ter of 1814 a detachment of reg'ulars1 junder the famous Dr. Dunlop, tooki up the work. Dr. Dunlop told howlj this party came to Rom-he .s Point ' `and that while the-_v were there the; `ice broke up in the night. with a) ?Pr0p0sed Club Activities ] Discussed at Kiwanis Meet DEFENCE COUNSEL URGES | ONESCHOOK BE EXAMINED 'l7}1e late Col.

Her explan- `anti-on` to the chief for being on the oountry road so far from her home was that she went for a ride with two Orfllia penple. a boy by the name of Broad and a girl who gave her name as Eileen`, and that their car broke down on the Angus road. other two stayed with the car. $3 undertook to walk home, while v e chief drove her up Ba_\'eld St. as far as Collier. where she said she would walk the rest of the way home.

(Continued on page three\ and mast proposal, "xsxtension of i the K-Y Club, with a View to provid- ing a building with gymnrasum, work room and swinmm'E-ng pool, was en- larged on by Vice-President A. A. Smith. He was most optimistic as to , the future of Barrie and predicted rthait withi-ni the next ten years it would be raised to the status of a city. In the last ten years the popu- lation had increased by 1,100, in spite of the depressed conditions. ,To-(llz1._\' Barrie was in a better posi- tion` to move forward than any town `inthe eounttry. With this thought in ;mind, Ifhe Kiwa-niis Club should think gin la1`;rer terms, and no activity `would be more xvorth-while than ex- :tend the K-Y Club. His proposal ,was that the Kiwanis Club take over `the old organ ,factor_v and rem-odel it. The old part of the bul-lding could be made over for gym, work room. etc.. without altering; zi wall, and the new part wou`.d make an: ideal swim- ming: pool. The building could be purcl1as.ed at a ridiculously low g- ure at the present time. Barrie was badly in need of such a centre for the young` people. Some would, no doubt, think that such a project was too big` to undertake, but he be- lieved that the proper leadership was all that was needed. The-initial cost would be about $15,000 and the yearly upkeeip between $4,000 and $5,000. It should, however, be self- susrtaining up to within $1,000. which would have to be raised every year. Discussion on proposed act..'vi`ties ` for the Barrie Kiwans Club fea7tured Tuesday night's meetin-g.
