Two old-time residents looked at each other as they shook hands. They kept shaking and they kept looking. Then grins broke over their faces and the smiles turned to chuckles. Then they called each oth­ er by name. They had not seen each other since they attended a litle log school house together seventy years ago. The two happened to be Alex ‘San­ dy’ MeKellar, life-long resident of Hibbert, and William Robert Henry, of Brucefield, not many miles away. But it was the first time they had, met over the great span of years., That meeting was not the only one of its kind at the Cromarty school on Friday, but it was truly typical of the atmosphere which prevailed at the reunions of old boys and girls and teachers. It was a happy occasion, as old chums met their friends of long ago and yet at times there was certain sadness about the gathering, as old scholars on making enquiries learned that this one and that one had been called away. As far as the weather­ man was concerned he didn’t give the Cromarty old boys and girls a very good break in the morning with rainstorms and up ideally in everyone had a Bell mist, but it cleared the afternoon good time. Sounded The bell on the schoolhouse sound­ ed to call the old class together in the morning with R. H. Cowie, of Carlingford, the oldest living teach­ er, being at the head of the class. But it remained for WT. W. Thomp­ son, now of Edmonton, Alta., to take charge of the class. He spent eight years as teacher back more than half a century ago. “You know I came here today and at first I couldn’t recognize many. But those faces are coming ba^k as the minutes, pass. Jimmy Fulton, I can see that you have that same look about you. It was 53 years ago that I took this school and they were eight of the happiest years life. " . - Miller back there in those said the beloved pioneer now 81 years of age. And so the class progressed and a few of the former pupils were called v.r.on to tell where they are living now. Alfred Miller said he had been in Toronto for 45 years. Then he laughed as he told how Mr. Thompson would administer punish­ ment. Used Real Switch “Yes. they say I was a terror. But I never like to give the strap. In fact I didn't keep one. When the time arose for handing out such punish­ ment I used to walk to Andy Bru.e’s orchard and get a switch, use it and and of my I see Alex Henry and Sandy teacher, I h d Got R<al HoniO'-irk h> :inr hi d ri. a h •v .oiut r-lP i belli ;hts M t o: I D :n d !1 then tha+ no ha* .s and when is I rhat waul and ■ ■t »h’:n I say i d in re of pi ir m- old folks were exl in all my Miller.
