Was At Durham Celebration Flesherton L.O.L. No. 2855 and Car- nation Lodge No. 545, L.O.B.A., took part in the parade at Durham on Thursday celebrating the 244th Anni- versary of the Battle of the Boyne. About 25 Lodges took part in the parade and a huge throng lined the streets while the march was in pro- gress. The oldest Orangeman of this dis- trict, Mr. Jos. Blakely of Flesherton attended the local Lodge in the morn- ing and took his turn at beating the drum to the tune of "The Protestant Boys." This is Mr. Blakely's 60th Twelfth of July since he joined Pro- ton Lodge No. 244 in 1875, of which he has been an honorary member the past few years. Mr. Donald McLeod, an old raemiber connected for many years with Ceylon Lodge No. 883, was also in attendance. Both these Orangemen have taken a most active part in Orange circles, Mr. McLeoo having been a Master of the County Lodge of East Grey, but neither were able to accompany their Lodges to Durham, due to ill health. Many more years of active work and best wishes are extended to these brethren. 'Mr. W. P. Crossley, another veteran Orangeman was out of town holiday- isg and could not attend Lodge on the 12th. How Elephants Die It has often been said that no white man in South Africa ever sees a dead elephant, that is to say, an elephant that has died a natural death. How, then, does an elephant die? A traveller answers the question in a most romantic way. He tells that when an African elephant feels the pains of old age stealing across the vast energy of which he has been master for so many years, he moves away from the herd, sniffs the air, and then with solitary determination makes his way slowly and sorrowfullj to the appointed place of death. Tht journey before him may take a month or a year, "but in majestic solitude the way is plodded, unerringly the path is trod." Instinct guides him to the great cemetery. Somewhere near Lake Nyanza, it is believed, lies the amazing graveyard, the goal of the dying elephant. It is a vast pit filled wfth blackness into which fo' thousands of years dying elephants have cast themselves with the last I remnants of their ebbing strength. Arriving at the pit, we are told, the monarch of the African forest raises his trunk high in the air, snorts de- fiantly, and then hurls himself ovei the edge. His last death cry, says the traveller, vibrates through the gi-eat forest, and lions hearing that migty cry,slink away into greater darkness, while the smaller animaiL- crouch as if in reverence of the death of something great and splendid. If this story from Lagos, Nigeria, is true, it is at once a telling example of the wonders of instinct, and almost touching instance of the pathos oi death.

Failing to hit when hits were need- ed caused Flesherton to lose a heavy hitting scheduled Centre Grey League game at Durham on Thursday after- noon last. Durham won the game 14 runs to U. Once with the bases loaded and another with two on Me- Tavish and Phillips were out on called strikes to retire the side. McTavish is second best batter on the team but he had an off-day for this game and failed to pole out a hit in six trips to the plate. While Flesherton had more hits than Durham, with half an inning to the good, the latter made runs on several extra-base hits that made the difference of victory and defeat. Phillips commenced on the mound for Flesherton and allowed one run in the second inning after his team mates had taken the lead with three counters. Three more were secured off him in the third inning and he finally reached deep water when two singles, a three base hit and two errore accounted for three runs and none out. Reg. Hutton then came in to pitch and struck out the first to face him, and the next batter was hit and had a free trip. A three-bagger brought over the two runs and on a bunt the runner was nipped at the plate and the next victim struck out. Hutton pitched well for the next three innings and had eight strike- outs in the four full innings he pitch- ed. After striking out three of the four Durham batters to face him in the seventh Hutton weakened in the eighth and a double, a triple and two singles were forced from him when he gave up his duties in favor of his brother, Harold, who retireJ the side without any more scoring. Knisely pitched a steady game for Durham and bore down in the pinches to save the game for his team. He allowed Flesherton to collect three runs in the second inning, two in the fifth, one in the sixth and eighth and four in the ninth, with two men left on bases when Phillips fanned on called strikes for the third out. This is the second game Flesher- ton has lost during the season, hav- ing won their last three starts. They play CoUingwood here this Thursday to finish the first half of the sched- ule. The reversal suffered at Durham on Thursday should show the team that practice is needed before they engage a good team. Very few of the players turn out to the regular practise hours and team play cannoti be built up that way. However, er- rors were made by both teams and Durham was more at fault in this way than Flesherton, but their extra- base blows in batting were what made the runs count. The local team as a whole, has been very weak in batt- ing. FLESHERTON E 1 1 1 I Mr. and Mrs. Josiah Crawford and two children of Whitby, who have been visiting friends in this neigh- borhood, have returned home.

More Tourists This Year Signs of a good automotive year are seen in the figures of interna- tional tourists traffic. Niagara Falls and other Ontario ports of entry re- port a heavy influx. Motor tourist traffic to New Brunswick already shows an increase of about twenty per cent. A new international traf- fic bridge, linking Cornwall, Ont., and Rooseveltown, N.Y., adds another to the many channels of communication between Canada and the United States. The formal opening: of this new international vehicle route took place on June 30th, the opening day of Cornwall's centennial celebration. It is the only bridge connecting the United States and Canada between Montreal and Niagara Falls. I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. â€" Thoreau.

Taylor, member of the Legislature for North Grey, will receive the appointment oi Deputy Minister of Game and l''ish- eries for Ontario. Confirmation of acceptance has not yet been made, but it is expected that Mr. Taylor will accept. If such is the case an- other election in North Grey would have to be held to fill the office. Mr. Taylor has represented North Grey in the Legislature since his election as a U.F.Ol member during the Dmry regime, later as a ProgressiTe and at the election on June 19th as a Liberal- Progressive. His experience on the Game and Fisheries Committee of the House and his interest in the work of the Department should fit him for his appointment. McGirr G.. s Knisley, p. ..
