in the area, Samuel de Champlain,
trod in 1615-16, two thousand people
gathered to pay homage to and to

honors by Bishop J, T. Kidd of Lon-,
don,
The rain had stooped and the sun
again shone by the time the ceremon

Don’t 1 et any Government deprive
you of your right to give your child
ren the kind of education you have
chosen for them," said Bishop Kidd,
addressing Mr. • and Mrs. Masse and
the assemblage at large.
“What right has any Government
to exclude God from what, may be
taught in any school, even though the
subject be geography? There is no
such thing as true education without
religion, and the Christian mother is
the most effective teacher the- world
can produce.
“This is the kind of training that
has been imparted in the Masse home.
We come here today to rejoice with
you, and hope that you continue to
receive His abundant love and affec

MRS. JOHN CAMPBELL
STARTS 92nd YEAR
Grand Old Lady Had 91st Birthday
Monday
On Monday, Mrs. John Campbell
had many callers and received many
gifts and congratulations, the occas-
sion -being her 91st birthday, A year
ago, when Mrs. Campbell celebrated
her birthday, we visited her and found
her bright and cheerful for her years
and this past year has been kind to
her as we noticed little change in this
grand' old lady when we called to con
gratulate her on her 91st birthday.
It may be that her memory is not
quite so keen as a year ago, but she
can still reminise about old ’times
when she came to Culross. That was
in 1862.
Mrs. Campbell says that things are
surely different to-day with good
roads crowded with motor cars. When
she went to Culjjoss she had to ride
horse back along the 10th concession
over a cordoury road.
The Township was virgin bush in
those days and she feels that she and
her husband did their share in pion
eering when they cleared the farm on
the 1st of Culross where her son Wil
liam now lives.
The people who cleared our lands
in this district were brave folks and
Mrs. Campbell, one of these, says that
when $he was married at the a’ge of
16, the bush was alive with wild life
which at times became very bold and
venturesome,
Mrs. Campbell is of Irish stock. She
was born on the Emerald Isle in the
County of Fermanah and with her
parents at the age of 13 they set out
for the land of promise. The old sail
ing vessels took nearly 9o weeks to
cross the ocean. They landed in New
York and a couple of years later she
came to this district for a visit. While
on this visit she met and married
John Campbell. He died in 1911.
They toiled together on the Culross
and Turnberry boundary which was
her home until she moved into Lower
Wingham 8 years ago to live with
her daughter, Mrs. George Haw
thorne. The work on the farm in those
days was strenuous but Mrs. Campbell
feels that it was good for her. Honest
work she says is good for a person.
She deplores the fact that so many
farms are now vacant, farms that the
old timers cleared by great effort.
Mrs. Campbell has that fine Irish
characteristic, a great sense of hum
our. She reads with the aid of a glass
and keeps right up-to-date with cur
rent events, She sleeps and eats well
and enjoys having a chat about the
days when the bears and other wild
animals were plentiful in the district.
Monday her birthday was a miser
able sort of day and many of her older
friends could not get to sec her which
was a keen disappointment, but she
was very happy that as many did call
to wish her well. #
She has three chidren still living,
Andrew, of Turriberry; William, of
Culross, and Margaret (Mrs. George
Hawthorne, of Lower Wingham). She
has. one brother, William Montgom
ery, of Emmerson, Man., who visited
her last sumtper and her sister, Mary,
who lives in Town also.
Elected D.D.G.M.
Mr. J. Howard Wylie, of Wroxeter,

Master of Huron District No. 5 at

on the matter.
