For Sale 46c, at McKibbon’s Drug Store. (By P. S. Fisher) Looking back over the years surprising how little we remember, even of the happy days of childhood; perhaps their very care-free character, made the scenes evanescent and, so obliterated many events of the past which, could they but have been in delibly impressed on our hearts would serve in life’s declining years to cheer and comfort and bless when alone, and effervescence into gay laughter, when in company with old.friends. Truly, John Locke the great philos opher was right when he said “with out memory man is a perpetual in fant;” and what a lot of infants there are wearing either skirts or long troussers. That man Locke by the way is worth reading. Fifty cents worth of his thoughts are more value than fifty tickets that admit to the movies. I for the for of medicine to cure himself of asthma. He succeeded early with the first but late with the second. According to his tombstone he got rid of his asth ma in his seventy second year, al though many an asthmatic wheezes on into the eighties and on into the night. That hymn “Trust on” is full of en couragement to those who suffer from this afflication. Old Mr. Freed used to sing it in company, at Baptist prayer-meetings. What an inspiring sight he was on a cold frosty February afternoon, with that yellow fork-handle walking-stick helping him to leap the drifts. I often wondered where he got that so-called cane. Some thought it was a huge stool in the making—one from Button and Feasants factory. What industries we had in those days and how the -workmen by the hundred poured out of those factories at noon day—the Union and Bells, Button and Fessants and the rest, and what innumerable saw-logs were haul ed to the saw mills at this time of the year. What a change a few years make. In those days we were hang ing on sleighs and in these days -we are hanging on to our jobs. No won der it is said one can get used to hanging. Speaking of saw-mills, I think it was poor old Archie or Alex. McNevin, (who never had the chance of a uni versity education,) about whom the story was told of the time he was supposed to be in John McLean’s wee office looking at the Wingham Times upside down. There was a picture of the National Iron Works on the out side page. John McLean asked Archie “Anything new in the paper, Archie”? “Not much, I see there’s a picture of ship-wreck here”. That National Iron Works was a ship-wreck indeed. What a fine dinner was served to the in vestors in the Queens, free of charge, which later proved to be the costliest meal an investor could consume—and pay for. Members of the St. George’s Society, honourable beef-loving Eng lishmen of Huron County,on that oc casion dined unwittingly on Bullock from Galt.

Esau’s, beware! The Jacob’s are still abroad in the land. Going back to the factories did you ever speak to Mr. Fessant concern ing the weather, as for example; “Good morning Mr. Fessant it looks like • rain this morning.” “O’ I don’t think so, it will likely be a nice day” or “Good morning Mr. Fessant—an other fine day.” “It’s fine just now but will probably rain before night.” Idiosyncrasies. # I just thought of the day the Union factory took fire. That was the hot test and most exciting fire I ever at tended. The heat would all but singe the whiskers of old men watchers ac ross the street near McClymots stone implement place. Great fear was ex pressed lest the fire would, reach the boilers and cause an explosion, and fears always accompany fires. Two events stand on the threshold of my memory as I recall the seething scene. Huey Hamilton, like others, appeared at a third storey window, emerged, jumped and cut his ear on a wire from one of the poles. Frank Angus appeared at a top window where the building was a storey higher—close to Diagonal Rd. He performed a rare feat. He lowered himself and hung to the window-sill swung his dang ling legs clear of the window-sill be low and dropping caught it cleverly with both hands and held on. peated the stunt successfully and time, and the third drop him, like a cat, safely to the below. Poor Frank had a sad fire of his own later. No fire in Wingham seemed com plete as a fire scene without Mr. Tamblyn in the midst of it, I mean int the midst of the scene. How he could and would direct in what manner it best could be extin guished. In the old days two dollars was paid to the first citizen to reach the town hall and pull the hemp rope (to the left) announcing the fire. This prize money was sometimes competed for by half-clad4 townspeople in the middle of the night. One night the race was on at a little after two be tween Kenneth Cameron and a form er proprietor of the Exchange Hotel, Conover, J think, was his name. Any way, Conover was dose to John Gal braiths store before Cameron left his bedroom; but Kenneth Cameron was a lacrosse sprinter and knew his legs, which were soon in action. He passed poor old Conover as he was passing the Queens. Kenneth Cameron got For the finest of leather In the market he bought With the strongest of thread it was sewn; And, silver-green straw From the rye-fields of home Filled ‘ the very best collars, I’ve known. His collars were filled With the greatest of care And butled as smooth as a board, Such consurnate patience And unerring skill Have seldom in collars been stored. i (f TOWN HALL, CLINTON, MAR. 4th, 1.30 p.m. TOWN HALL, BRUSSELS, MAR. 5th, 130 p.m. .4 Sample Engines on Display, Weather Permitting.
