I 5 non senator Gowan delivers a very 1ntor- ' eating add:-eu-const1tutlon and By- laws adopted-A number of additions - to the society membershln. .- The secondmeetin of this society was held in Barrie on Friday last, the 4th inst , Hon. Senator-Gowan. aftergthe minutes of - the previous meeting had been read and con- rmed, addressed the meeting, and thanked the members for having honoredhim with the oice of Honorary President of the society It must, he_ said, be evident to everyone who has looked at the subject that it is most important to have a record of local events, and the object of this society will accordingly commend itself in all direc- tions. He had come to live in this county in January, 1843 and it is astonishing to ' contrasttits condition at that time with what ' it is at present. The mode of travelling from place to place was on horseback. At | that time, too, municipal organization had just begun. Capt, Iriving, father of [Emeline Irving, Q C. of Hamilton, had just. been ' appointed the rst Warden of the newly constituted Simcoe District. Local councils were also then established in the townships for the rst time, the head of the local coun- cil being the representative of the township in the County Council. . The change had been made in accordance with the views of Hon. Robert Baldwin and others of the day. He had been opposed to the change of plac- ing municipal afairs in the hands of the elected officers. For forty years he was connected with the municipal system in the capacity of either arty /`ex or particeps. ,__ I,,.,!1 -who had become judges.` -V.`._-- Speaking of educational progress, he said I I I I "J " L L that our present school system would not have been what it is to-day, had it not been for the guiding hand of Dr. Egerton Ryer- son. There was a Board of Education for the county in those early years of which he was chairman. Their work was consider- able, but_he was ably assisted by the other members of the Board, particularly by Rev. Mr. Gray and Mr. Dallas, of Orillia. The qualications of the early teachers, which the Board demanded. were not extensive. They had three grades then, as now. The range of studies in the schools was narrow, yet with the rudimentary instruction ob- tained there, some of the pupils have be- come the ablest men in Canada On a re- cent occasion he had looked backward over 1 the history of the county and had counted no less than ten young men from this county These were :-The late Christopher Armstrong, of Carleton County; VV VV. Dean, of Lindsay, who was educatedat Barrie Grammar School ; Samuel J. Lane and Judge Creasor, of Owen Sound ; iMait1and McCarthy, of Orangeville; Feath- erstone Osler, of the Supreme Court; W. G. Falconbridge, of the Queen s Bench Di- vision; J. A. Ardagh, and VV. E. A. Boys, of Barrie; and W. C Mahaffy, of Brace- bridge. Qnrnn ammn nr nirrlmf xmm-n after he name UIIUEU. Some seven or eight years after he came to the county, he was able to say that it con- , tained a population greater than those of , Manitoba and British Columbia combined. This was owin to the extent of the county, which then inc uded the present areas of Dufferin and Grey counties. For this vast - territory, there was but one judge; now, there are ten or more within the same.area. He cited several reminiscences of Toronto, in which he had lived during the thirties. In his travels from place to place on circuit duties, he always found a Methodist preach~ er wherever he would go, showing their energy and enthusiasm in their cause. He l believed that there was too much ocking into the professions: Farming was a more valuable occupation to the country at large. Of late years it was becoming more honor- able than it had previously been. A...`-`mat rs`-Ln #1-|:I'|rl HA nrltinrl 8.018 Duuu lb uuu PlUVl.UunLJ Amongst other things he added would be an interesting ethnological study to follow the descendants of the plucky band of Scotch settlers who left the Selkirk KICVIR. that it l Settlement on the Red River and came through the forests to West Gwillimbury, and see how far these descendants, many of whom have attained distinction in various professions, have given evidence of the pluck and perseverance of their parents. In a. humorous vvay he referred to the wonderful faculty of the North of Ireland man "to look out for himself. _Wherever he had gone he took root and lived One of the chief points in the joke is the fact that the Senator himself is a. native of Donegal. He cited a number of men of that race who have attained world-wide distinction In referring to the early newspapers of the county he mentioned Hugh Scobie, a Simcoe `D-innnnvv nu +1-un fir-at I1'|5|.YI in to (I klliuvvv ` county ne meuuuucu. .u.u5u puuum, i Pioneer, as the first man in Canada. to raise iournalism out of the low condition in which it was.

The family is remarkable for versatility of talents in the line of music; There does not seem to be any instrument on which they cannot play, and their vocal powers are quite as varied and well trained. The various numbers were warmly applauded and honestly encored. In closing these remarks on the excellent entertainment, Tun ADVANCE would kindly suggest to the parents of Leo, that a little training in manners and modest would be a great nelpto the little pr igy.
