GEORGE STREET WEST FIRE HALL- 1958 —A. special meeting of the Fire com- pany was called at the hall on Saturday afternoon. Tile( purpose of the session was to give the members an opportunity to bid farewell to their 1st Lieutenant, A. Mason. President Wise was called tothe chair, and after a few ohosen sentences, presented Air. Mason with an easy chair for himself, and a rocker for his better halt. The gifts were accompanied by a short, but neatly worded address from the. members. AnOrew was much as. tonished at the expressions of good will and respert in which he was held by his b,ethern. He had only done his duty as an officer and a citizen, and therefore had no reason to ber000mpensed in so tan- giable afin in. He thanked the donors on behalf of Mrs. Mason and himself, and would ever remr•.nbrr the company and his friends for the handsome presents, as well as for many kindnesses received in other ways. It had ever been a source of pleasure to him to be associated with the village fire companv, as it was a w+de awake, enterprising rssociation, and he would ever expect to see the good work prosper. He deeply regretter having to leave the'vi'lage,and so manv kind friends, but felt assured that the ebonize was one of advantage: to him, and that hisposition in the. company could easily be filled with a more efficient officer, The obairman then called upon the several members present, who in turn testified to the ear. nestpess with which the departing broth - or had adopted himself to the interests of the company. Not only would the com- pany miss Andrew, but the villagers hsd looked upon him be their defence against evil -doers, and therefore as constable he would be much missed. Farewells were exchanged, and the meeting was adjourn. ed. Firernens' Picnic. Tuesday's celebration in Pickering was a grand success. The day dawned bright and clear, and at an early hour strangers arrived in the village from all directions. About 11 o'clock the procession formed at the Spink Mills, headed by the Whitevale Band, and marched to Gordon's Grove, where the day was spent by the assembled multitudes in all manner of ways. About 1 p.m. the tables were spread, and dinner served by attentive waiters, and this part of the program was continued until far into the afternoon, yet the provisions did not become exhausted. The firemen did a splendid trade at the booth,. where cigars and all kinds of soft drinks were diapers - ad. The game committee bad its hands full carrying out the list of sports, which consisted of running, jumping, and other atheletio games. Following is a list of successful competitors 100 yd raoe—C. Crew, J. L. Tripp. 76 yd race, (boys under 16 yrs.)—T. Henderson, John M. Kerr. 60 yd race, (boys under 12 yrs.)—N. Peak, Ben. Doten. Girls. race,—Lizzie Wilson, Maggie Westlake. Farmers' race—Joe Peak, R. Collier. Running jum —J. L. Tripp, T. Law. Vaulting—T. Law, P. Cavanagh. Pail race—C. Crew, T. Law. Putting the shot—P. J: Keyhoe, W. Fawcett. The tug of war between the Farmers and Firemen resulted in a victory for the latter. Each team were allowed eleven men, but in the first pull the farmers claimed that the Bremen had more men than allowable, therefor the match was called again. As far as the writer could see the number on each team was the same in the second contest, however, the firemen pulled their apponents. The music fomished during the after. noon by the Whitevale band, under the able leadership of Mr. Tresham, was of the highest order and brought forth the warmest praise from the best of judges. The village of Wbitevale and vicinity have ample reason to feel proud of the organization. Towards evening black clouds gathered and rain commenced to descend, whichserved to break up the Picnic earlier than was intended, but the - shower was but a slight one. The receipts at the gate amounted to some $97, and about $40 were taken in at the booth. The firemen have every reasen to feel pleased with the success at. tending their fourth annual picnic. In the evening the hall was crowded to the doors with people anxious to see the drama presented by the Dramatic Club. The band played several selections at the hall, which served to attract the people, and when the doors were opened a rush for seats took place, and in a few minutes the seats were all taken and standing room was eagerly sought after. The drama " Tau Nights in a Bar -room," was presented in a pleasing manner. The Whitevale orohestra furnished music for the drama which was highly satisfactory. A pleasing feature of the concert was the singing of Misses Maggie and Ethel Ilea - gens. These little girls appeared several times and sang for coppers to the one. 'omers in Slades barroom. They were dressed in suitable eustomes and did their parts admirably. It is not necessary to state that the other characters in the play did nobly. At the close of the play a tableau was pre. sented, representing Little Mary as an angel, but the colored light did not per. form very satisfactory. The receipts of the concert were some $64. Fireman's Pic-nic. The weather Wednesday was just the kind of day that one expecte on July 1st., warm and fair. Such a condition of things the fire laddies bare have been wishing for some weeks and in that particular they have no reason to feel discouraged. The calithumpian procession was announced for 10:30 a.m , and it was with difficulty that the people could content themselves until that hour arrived. About that time the Claremont band arrived and after driv- ing through the village and playing several sweet selections, they proceeded west and met the xasqurades, who bad formed at W. E. Vaustone's premises. Capt. Roweheaded the procession mount- ed upon a fiery charger and dressed in fall uniform, Eben came the band seated in their handsome wagon drawn by four horses, with harness decorated.,- Following this came the masquerades mounted upon vehi- oleo of every conceivable description, while others marobed. The prime were awarded let to the group of dsneera, who had a plat- form built upon a dray, and the second tpt a minstrel band, while there were othsa rigo,.and. companies scarcely less deserving. Those who saw the procession say that it was the moat laughable thing that has yet been in Pickering. Dinner was served in the grove, when the tables were provided with the very choice of delicacies. The ice cream and general booths sold refreshments to all who desired, and both institutions did a lively trade. Following is a list of the prise winners :- 100 yd race (open)—tat Cochrane, 2nd Fox. 100 yd race (boys under 16)—J Lee - lie, L Conner. Tbree leg race—Stewart & Coohrane, Sleep Bros. Pail race—Stewart, Cowan. Vaulting—C. xoGuire,. Fox & O'- Leary. Running high jump—Cochrane, Fox. Standing high lump—Anderson, Cochrane & Fox. Hop step and jump— Cowie, Cochrane. Standing broad jump-,-.. C xoGuim, Cochrane. Puting abet—J Herr, A O'Leary. Girls race (under 14 years)—Eva Silts, xaggie O'Leary. Tug of War (Firemen vs. Farro"a)—Firemen. There was considerable unpleasantness about the tug-ofwar, the vanquished claim- ing that the rope should be pulled three times, while the firemen thought once was sufficient. To settle the matter the $3 00 prise was equally divided. The Attendance at the ground was by no means as large as on former 000asions, but that may bs easily accounted for as all surrounding villages and towns bad spe- cial attractions that day. The Claremont band furnished good music all day, and were not in the least degree stingy with is. When tea was over an adjournment was made to `the village, where things were in progrees.for the concert. The ball was packed and many returned home unable to gain admittance. The program was much enjoyed. C. H. C. Wright's lecture on the famous % rays was much apprecia- tes by those who have any idea of -obtain- in¢ practical knowledge, and was a rare treat as a scientific illustration. Those who were not present missed a rare op. portunity., Henry M. Benrett rendered a number of comic songs that wen much enjoyed and loudly encored by all. Should he again visit us he is assured of a hearty reception. We are not yet aware just how much the Firemen cleared by the pin nic and concert, but feel safe in saying that they will have at least $80. The company de- sire us to thank all those who assisted in making the celebration a success, and so- sere all that the proceeds of the affair will be properly applied. m :r Im P \ChCER\!1G I� a\\` :•�_ .._ moi,....
