The sun was still shining brigluly and therd was


every pro-spcct of a. bright sunny afternoon as the Iiroccssiori rc-tormcd and marclicd back llirougli the village to the Lane Ends’ Field, kindly Mnt for the afternoon by Mr. Jesse Wilson. From the point of view of the children the ;imc


spent on tho spurts’ field was j>crliaj>s the most cnjoy.ablc of ilie whole day. T h e y entered into the sjiorts and games wtih wholc-hcarlcd enthu­ siasm, and though there was a spirit of friendly rivalry in the various events, ilierc was none uf the bitterness of feeling which somoiimcs j>crvadcs sports liold on a iiiueh larger scale. Tliere were lots of prizes,” to use the words of one little


five year old fellow, and the various events had goo.l entries, one or two having to be run in heats, a form of racing rather puzzling to some of the younger competitors, who could not under­ stand having to run twice for one event. During the course of tlic afternoon a jirotty


lit tle ceremony took place on ,thc field which served to further gladden the hearts of the child­ ren. Each child was presented with a Corona­ tion box of chocolate from tlic dainty liands of Miss Dorollty Asshe'ton. These jiretiy souvenirs Were llic gift of Mrs, K. C . Assheton, who was indefatigable in her cfTorts during the afternoon ministering to tlio enjoyment of the children. -•\Tl tlic children were served with bun and' milk, and the adutls with bun and coffee free of cliargo.

its route could c.asily be followed by the glare of Iho torches, and tho soft fairy-like light of Ibc coloured fires lighting up the house tops. Presently the vanguard hove into sight around the corner by Manor House. A s it shortly after strclchod, serpont-like, down the village, the elTcct was really beautiful, at times almost weird, as the vari-eolourcil fires rose and fell, Perhaps moro llitm anything, the waving lights reminded one of the tales of the old crusades when men marched to the light of tiic torch. The elTect could cort.iinly not he likontd to anything in our motlcrn twentieth century life.


T h e prucessiuii was not u long one, by any least, Though the village of 'West Bradford always if


means, hut as “ a half .a loaf is heller Ulan none,” so it was with the procession, what tlicro was was first rate, .and further than that none of tlic char­ acters were swell as would shock the modesty of the refined, too often the case in such events. Following llic Hurst Green Band were the Mayor and Town Clerk in robes of oflice, and hnlh gen­ tlemen seemed to realise tlic dignity of iheir civic position. Perlnijxs the most interesting picture in the xvhole lot was the tahh-aiix representing the dilTorcnt stages of the South .Afrietm war, showing B octs ragi;ed and jagged going nhimt in a Cape c a r t ; tlic petiec negoliiitions at AT-recniging, with characters reprosenting l.ord Kitchener, Lord


bears a neat appearance by reason of its fine coni- modious dwelling houses, a greater air of smart­ ness was lent to it on Saturday, the occasion of the Coronation celebration, for the village was docked in an array of bunting floating gaily in the breeze. The celebrations were confined to the afternoon, the mill stopping at ten oclock to cn* able tho people to be ready for the various oventa, whicli began a t one o’clock with a procession of the inhabitants of the village, starting from the Parish Room, and proceoding to Eaves Hall, ibe residence of Jfrs, Burton. The procession, in which some 230 people took part, was hca'JtrJ by about thirteen prominent men in tho xnllagc mounted on horseback, and led by Mr. E . Burt-)ii, Chairman of the Parish Council. Next to these came the Clitheroc Borougli Band, and the follow­ ing members of the Parish Council: Mr. ,L H'»l gate, District Councillor, and Mc'ssrs. J. bmaile ^ W. Haighton, W. Tomlinson, and W. C o ‘ 'vam. A lte r them came a good number of children, all neatly attired, their beaming faces proclaiming that they were enjoying the event. 1 he rear of the procession was brought up by the aduU por­ tion of ihc Inhabitants. A t Eaves ILall the pro cossionists gathered on the front lawn and sang tho National Antliem and tlie hymn “ Onward Christian Soldiers,” under the comUictorship of Mr. J. Cottom, jun., after whicli three hearty cheers wore given for the Kin g and Queen. Short addresses bearing on tlic Coronation, the King's complete restoration to hoaltli and strength, and the success of tlie celebrations, were given by the Rev. F. A . N* Parker, Vicar of St. Helen’ s, Waddington, and .^f^. Haighton man of the Coronation Cominitlcc, and
