oy TARIO REFORMER, OSHAWA, ONT. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13, 1878. : : 4 tT ~ CROQUET AT DANBURY. FREDERICK NEALE, -=0022. 9 croquet has inspired the following" reflec- | | * FROM DANBURY CNE FOURTH OF JULY 1 BNTS, WW. WIGG & SO Cabinetmakers and Undert, i SIMCOE ST. NORTH, OSH; hy Se ) 0 ~ AXD OTHER INCI- tion from the Danbwry News Man :-- With the exception of a little " Croquet is not designed for the develop- { ment of muscle, but merely for the enjoy- ment of recreation. When a man puts | the prepondence of his strength in the blow, he fails to progress in the game, and not only that, but he loses so much enjoy- ment, and merely expends strength that may be required to take him off the | * premises. An acurate eye for measuring distance and defining disections is about all the capital required in a safe and ) nourishing game of croquet. Cons'dering | what an ®xcellent citizen he is in all re- | spects, we are led to regret that Mr. Hennessy did not posscss these facts pre- vicus to last' Monday evening. On that occasion he played his first game. There was a nico party of them on Mr. Warford's lawn, and several elderly ladies, members of the Khidghluy Missionary Bociety, wero seated on the stoop, having had a very enjoyable tea. Mr. Hennesy | waited expectantly for his turn at the game, at the same time swinging his right | arm and slapping his chest to warm up | Up to Time / 1d. F. K E LLOG G.
