TO THE LADIES ' Here's to the ladies, lord bless ’em! You recall how we used to help dress ’em ?

But now—what ft joy and a blessing! We live in the days of sane dressing, There ‘is nothing to fasten On silken clothes trim, Nothing to lace up, ’ . < And nothing to pin.

I had almost decided to part com-? pany with the Times-Advocate that had kept up its regular visits to our home since we left Crediton six years ago. However, since, coming to Warner, a few weeks ago to sup­ ply the Evangelical church here, our interest in Exeter and vicinity has been renewed through the meeting of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. McKenzie both former residents of Stephen Town- Ship. They came west to Manitoba quite a number of years ago but have for some years established their home in Warner, where their only son Lome is manager of the Ogilvie Elevators. Boflr are quite advanced in years but are still quite hearty. Since our rather Unexpected meeting here, many have been, the inquiries concerning the folks of Crediton and vicinity and if the ears of the Hills, Clarks, Gaisers, FimkbeineTs, have been buzzing rather often, of late, they will soon know the reason why. Since coming here, I have frequent­ ly enjoyed the kind hospitality of both the McKenzie* homes. Warner is quite a pretty town in the southern part of Alberta about fifty \miles from Lethbridge. The Sweet Grass Hills of Montana can be seen from here to the south and to the west signs of the Rockies are within sight. Nowhere else have I seen a more beautiful sunrise and sunset. Warner is surrounded with splen­ did farming community. For some years crops were rather poor on ac­ count of dry seasons. However, bumper crops were harvested during 1928. The fine local elevators ex­ pect to handle a million bushels of wheat besides some coarse grain. Individual yields ranged from® 10,- 000 to 50,000 bushels. Three bro­ thers threshed 150,000 bushels. At present the farmers are very busy hauling grain to the elevators which is mostly done by truck. Ranching is also carried on near the hills about seven miles from here. Recently one firm of ranchers shipped 500 head of fine Herefords valued ait about $40,000 from the lo­ cal station. Warner has a splendid consolidat­ ed school, the first in the Province. The' faculty consists' of four publib school teachers and two High school Mr. Lome McKenzie is Chairman of the community school boarfcl. The settlers here hail frrnn Ontar­ io, the state of Iowa and ot^iei* wes­ tern states.- The Swiss, tl^e Ger­ mans and the Swedes are allo well represented.
