Our First _ -\Dominion Day
The following article of our First Dominion Day contributed by Mr. E. Humphrey, Box 49, Breadalbaiie, R. R. 4, tells of a time when crino- lines and hoops were worn by the ladies, the large skirts drawn over them, giving the appearance of a field o! walking hay coils only of many dlflerent colors. Many of the ladies also wore large sun bonnets and i! not in a favorable position, it was hard to say which was Miss or Mrs. Bo and So. Quite a-few or the

9, Beverly Township, Wentworth County, Upper Canada, told us that we were to have a new holiday. Up to that time there had been “Upper Canada" and “Lower Canada." Mr. Phillip Green, our teacher, was a very patriotic man and decided that “the day should be kept in some special manner, so he planned a monster picnic. For weeks before July 1st, he had the school children practising songs, readings and dia- logues. He composed a poem en~ titled “Our New Dominion Day," and set it to music for us to sing. He arranged with Mr. Cochrane, ihe teacher at Sheffield, to Join our school in the picnic.

she had done it. Confectioners’ sugars had not been heard of at thattime. After the children had fully satisfied their appetities, the tables were cleared and reset, and filled with adults. When all had been amply served, the “Brass Band" mounted the platform and began to play, which brought the people together and the seats were soon filled, and a fine programme was given, interspersed with occas- ional selections from the band.
The trustees. and Mr. Cochrane V. of Sheffield, made speeches, Mr. ’ Green was chairman, and he finally finished up the programme with a very appropriate account oi’ Con- federation. He told of now Upper and Lower Canada and the Eastern i Provinces were joining together, and were fanning one confederation called “The Dominion oi’ Canada," and July lst was set as a public holiday in each year to commemor- ate the event. Then after the band had played "God Save the Queen." Mr. Green stepped to the front of the platform and announced "Three cheers for the Queen." “Hip, Hip, Hurrah,” and the woods rang out once more in three rousing cheers. It was getting late, the afternoon was about gone, and everyone had ‘ enjoyed the day. The sun was l dropping low in the west, and we went to our wagons and soon were on our way to ourhomes where the milking and evening chores were
