OLD SCOTCH WORTHIES
We last week briefly mentioned the
celebration by Mr. and Mrs. W. K.
Siewert of the 60th anniversary of their
marriage on St. Patrick's Day. A mere
extended article regarding the old couple
appaared in The Globe of Saturdax, and
as it contains a number of interesting
facts we pass it on to our readers. It
is as follows.:
A reader of The Globe since its first
issue, and 9 stalwart Scotemaa, Liberal
and Presb Presbyterian, is William K. stew-
art, Lucknow, Oqt., who, with Mrs.
Stewart, on March 17, 1919, celebrated
the sixtieth itnniversary of his wedding.
Mr. and Mre Stewart have ten children
living, twenty-six grandchlldter- and
two great-grandchildren.
Mr. Stewart was born' in Aberdeen,
Scotland, in 1834, and when only a yeir<r
old was brougat to Canada by his
family. His father settled at Embro,
West Zirra, and there the young Stew-
art grew np, married, and eyed nil
1896, when he retired from. theism
and moved' into Woodstock, later going
to Grafton to one of hie sons, and finally
to Lucknow, near the home of his
daughter.
Mr. Stewart was married March 17,
1859, at Woodstock, by Rev. Donald
Mackenzie;- to Isabella Clark, a native
of Inverness, Scotland Oa the occasion
of the recent celebration of sixty years
of married life Mr. and Mre. Stewart
were presented with an address from
the Session and Board of Management
of the Lucknow Presbyterian Church,
as well as being recipients of telegrams
from all their children, and letters from
the four grandchildren overseas..
Of the children of Mr. and Mre. Stew-
art living, two are in the Presbyterian
ministry, Rev. A. C. Stewart, Britton,
Ont-, and Rev. John C. Stewart, Tre•
herne, Manitoba. A daughter, Mre. R:
J. Chesnut, lives at Holyrood, Ont,,
near Lucknow. Three children are in
Vancouver, one in Saakatchewan, one in
Rochester and one in Los Angeles.
Four grandchildren went overseas. They
are: Pte. Norris Stewart, Treherne,
Mao.; Pte. Charles Stewart, Vancouver;
Pte. Gordon Stewart, Los Angeles (who
came to Canada specially to enlist), and
Pte. George Stewart, Vancouver. None
of the four was wounded or killed. A
fifth grandson, Cadet John Stewart., of
Vancouver, died at Camp Borden last
April from scarlet fever.
Mr. Stewart was a great stump
speaker, and often campaigned on be-
half of Sir Oiiver Mowet and Hon.
George Brown. He knew both very
well•, and Mowat used always to stay
with him when in the vicinity of 1moro.
Mr. Stewart made it a point to visit The
Globe whenever he was in Toronto, in
fact he made The Globe his headquarters
during stays in the city. He was on
Inspector of Agencies for Western Oa t-
ario for The Globe from 1892 to 1898.

THE CHAUTAUQUA FESTIVAL
The big three-day festival of music
and lecture and sung by theChautau,lua
organization has come and gone since
our last issue being here Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday.
As a business venture the festival fell
short of being a success and the guarant-
ors are a few cents out of pocket. •
As an entertainment better may be
said of the festival Though the pro•
grams presenr*ei by the Chautauqua
troups may not be as "funny" nor quite
as entertaining as we sometimes get,
they were all of a clean and wholesome
character. True to the Chautauqua
idea too, they are always educative—
just as educative as they can be made
and yet draw a crowd.
The Pilgrim Girls who appeared the
first day are a fine band of musical en-
tertair,ers, the soloist being aiuong the
beat we have had in Lucknow. Mr.
Woodman the cartoonist who accompan-
ied them and gavethe latter half -of the
program, is one of the cleverest on the
platform. His wit, humor and philos-
ophy was,gery entertaining to many-
Tbe second day's urogram were given
by a Japanese and his wife; and Prof.
Turner Who gave a lecture afternoon
and evening. Tne Japanese were very
clever and pleasing. But they were not
merely entertaining but instructive in
that they gave a glimpse of life in the
Island Empire which in the past half
century has risen trout barbarism to a
front rank place in the world Prof.
Turner was not up to expectation as a
lecturer. Though a man of fine ability,
highly educated and well informed, like
too many on the lecture platform be
Teemed to underestimate the intelligence
of his audience, and gave to much -tinge
to a sort of cheap humor. A part of his
evening address, however was very gond.
The third day,brougbt three artists of
a very high order, and tbi whole KO -
gram would have been an • ideal Chaut-
auqua rendering had not Prof. A. F
Wiggam, the lecturer, been caked ewe),
by sickness in his far.,ily. Perhaps as
an entertainment. many were as pleased
with it without the lecture, the music-
ians having lengthened their part of the
program.
Mr A. M. Skibinsky is a violinist of
wonderful art, and is douht•less the best
that has yet visited this part of Ontario.
Mrl De Mille, a baritone soloist wag _.
very :pleasing Ta -both voice and manner;
and`Miee Muriel- qiiiwbe, the accompanist
19 possessed of Musical gifts of a very
high order.
Mr. Plass, Manager of the Chautauqua
at Toronto, gave a half-hour lecture on
„The Language of humor and the
Humor of Language" by way of sub-
stituting for Prof. Wrggam.
Nn arrangements fora future visit of
the Chautauqua have been made as the
three-day festival has not proved suc-
ceeful in a business way.
DOLLAR DAY A
WHIRLWIND SUCCESS-
There
UCCESSThere is but one verdict regarding
"Dollar Day" in Lucknow—it was an
A 1 success. The larger merchants
simply had all the business they could
handle, and a number of others did a
gocd big day's business.
Shoppers were on hand quite early in•
the morning, so that same stores took in
as much money by nine o'clock, a.in , as
they ordinarily do all day. Th oughout
the afternoon tha,setreet .bad thereappear-
ance *of a Fall Fair or a celebration Day,
while inside the stores and hops every
thing was bustle and business. Per-
haps a good deal of the business was
not directly profitable but much of it
was, and everyone is entirely satisfied
with the venture. We believe that all
of the customers were satisfied too, • and
no doubt when another Dollar Day is
arranged for, as it no"doubt will be by
ted by, it will be •,"bigger and better'
than ever-"
The day was excel,ticnally -fine, the
country roads were tairly good, the
country folk were not busy and they
came in from far and near. Let us
make Dollar Day an annual event. It
has gotten away to a good start.
