Langside Native
Is 102 Years Old
Miss Colina Ross, a native of the
Langside area in Kinloss Town-
ship, recently observed her 102nd
birthday at an .extended care
hospital in Weyburn, Saskatche-
wan,
Ann Kyle, writing in the Wey-
burn Review, had this to say .of
Miss Ross.
COLINA ROSS, WITNESS TO
THE CHANGING TIMES
When I met Colina Ross, it was
the twinkle in her eyes and the
lines of wisdom borne by hardships
and years of experience that
weathered her face, that first
caught my attention.
Here was a woman who had
recently celebrated her 102nd
birthday . . . one of Weyburn's
oldest living residents.
She lived through a century of
changing times, when Canada was
a fledgling nation struggling for its
rights as such; a time of two great
wars; a . time that included the
Wright brothers' first flight, and
man's first step on the moon; and
many other marked events such as
these, all took place during her
lifetime.
Miss Ross was born in Langside,
Ontario, in 1872. She moved to a
farm near Carievale in 1903 and
lived there until 1943 when she
moved into town. She came to
Weyburn in 1%0 and is presently
residing at the Souris Valley
Extended Care Hospital.
Looking back in time, she vividly
recalls helping with the threshing
out at the farm. One time she
squashed her finger while working.
lnthose 'days threshing was done
with horses.
Miss Ross enjoyed church serv-
ices and, while she was able, never
missed a Sunday. "At that time
everyone had a great respect for
Sunday, the Sabbath Day," she
pointed out; a contrast with today's
practices.
When she was younger she used
to teach Sunday School classes and.
recalls that they didn't have a choir
in their time, but everyone sang in
church. She likes to sing and on
occasion still • sings along with
hymns on records.
As a young girl her hobbies were
knitting and crocheting, which she
describes as being a "good pas-
time". She also enjoyed tcooking
and loved reading books. Reading
is what she misses most today,
because as the years flew by her
eyes weakened and she is now no
longer able to read.
Still very'
sharp-witted, Miss
Ross, in her humble manner,
wanted to know why anyone was
interested in her life, as she says
she lived a normal life like
everyone else.
"I'm just an ordinary critter,
she declared.
