It refers to a meet- ing of our U. S. School concerning our annual pic-nic. It was not decid- ed io go to Owen Sound, but only pn^sed to inquire whether we could get an excursion at not, and on what terms and when. A committee was appointed to get this information. The second meeting was not called on account of any dis-aidsfaction, for I do not think tiiere was any but simp- ly to hear the report of the committee. Eyerything was perfectly harmonioiis and the motions passed, were unani- mous, and. we should feel obliged if yomr correspondent .would confine his items to iiacte, and in future if we wish our proceedings published we will instruct our Secretary to do so I think he is more capable of giving tAe correct minutes than one who was not tiiere at all. 'Ottr own corres- pondent" some time ago gave to the public Uirough the local papers an in-conrect report of our S. School financial statement and we hope that rlhe muit write lomethiiig \i will take the trouble to better inform himself of the facts. At our second meeting we decided to have our pic-nic at the usual place on the 4th day of July, and also to have an excursion to Owen Sound if satisfactory arrangemeuts can be made However that will he duly advertised in time to give all a chance of a cheap trip.

There was a large turnout and an enjoyable time was spent. Owing to the expected monster excur- sion from Owen Sound on that day. Mary from Markdale were unable tp put iu an appearance at the pic-nic. The large dancing platform which is the centre of attraction to a large number was well patrionized, wbile the musiti, by Parks Brus., was excel- lent. The athletic games were gone through, and everything passed off with harmony and satisfaction. The unswerving moral principle together with genial and busmess like deport- ment of Father Cassin go a great way in making this festival an enjoyable one. Heallh 4 HappiiMis fir aU.
