About eighty people in round num- bers had gathered by tea-time. The proceedings opened with a softball game between teams chosen by. President W. Y. Mills and Vice-President William Moore. Strange straw hats, relics of a style of twenty years ago, were worn by many of the players. The score was eo close it was called a tie and a box of cigars presented to each team, A programme of races was run off, three before supper and the rest after and resulted as follows: Men's blindfolder race, driven by ladies--1.

A sing-song was held, led by Rotarian Jack Elder, a guest, Gar- nett Lockett and Joseph Andre, guest of the president, who is shortly to open a studio in King- ston. In the evening one of the cottag- es was cleared and used for dancing until shortly before midnight.

O'Sullivan, C.B.8.R., taking for his text: "If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his 'cross and follow Me." He dwelt particularly on the love which animated the young maiden, enabling her to leave home and friends to devote herself to the service-of God, in the person of the poor, the sick, the little children, or Ju any way marked out for her by her superiors. In making this sacrifice, she loses nothing, but gains every- thing, since she receives the "hun« dred fold" promised by her Divine £2 § & 2 £° nl is tly il : fad Hd i : : Ee i 8 i Ei, ® -~ TUESDAY, AUGUST 206, 1934. of the "Te Deum" and the blessing of the Archbishop.

Mayor Angrove did a big busi- ness in the Police Court Tuesday morning and, aside from costs, col- lected a total of sixty dollars in fines. On a charge of being drunk a citizen was fined ten and costs or thirty days. Liquor procured doctor's order. Another citizen had been drinking dandelion wine and got into his car while "under the influence." He paid ten and costs on the first charge and will serve seven days in jail on the second. A large number of traffic charges were™laid. One citizen paid a fine of ten dollars and costs or thirty days in jail for passing a street car on the left side, and six others paid five and costs or ten days in Jail for speeding. The speeders included a banker, an alderman, a well- known young barrister and other prominent citizens.

ALARM UNNECESSARY, Doctor Hag Wrong "Hunch" About . Two Girl Hikers. Oswego, N. Y., Times, Two smartly attired hikers, Helen Underwood of Colin, N.Y., and Jane Baxter, of Kingston, Ont., were picked up on the high- way near Sterling by Dr. J. T. Mc- Nally, a Woonsocket, R.I., dentist, who rushed them to the office of Sheriff Vincent on the strength of a4 conversation he heard in the lobby of a Sodus hotel, in which he heard a young man state he was looking for two girls to tell them that a brother of one had been drowned in Buffalo. Dr. McNally forgot all about the conversation until he passed two young women walking along the road near Sterling. He was com- ing to Oswego and remembering the stranger's remarks in the Sodus hotel lobby to a Sodus deputy' sher- iff, he stopped the car and repeat- ed the conversation to the young women and offered to drive them to the sheriff's office here for in- formation. Undersheriff Nichols on duty at the sheriff's office was informed by the girls that they were hiking from Buffalo to Kingston, Ont., on a va- cation trip, The undersheriff called up the sheriff's office In Erie county and the Buffalo police and could get no information of a drowning or that the authorities were looking for the two young women. Similar telephone message to Kingston were fruitless. The girls then called up their homes as both have brothers and found they were safe and sound. The hikers left the Sheriff's office with thanks and more light heart- ed than from the time they struck the good intentioned Dr. McNally who thought he was performing a real service and is now heading to- ward Rhode Island wondering what wae in the back of the head of the by story. m---------------- EXCURSIONS ON BROCKVILLE.
