A couple who arc widely-known In this part of the gauntry, Mr, and Mrs. Bert Jackson, celebrated their . 50th wedding anniversary at their home on the sixth, line of Morris Township yesterday. For many years, Mr, and Mrs, Jackson, their two daughters and one son provided the music for old-time dances at points all over the Province. Away back in the days -when they had to do all their travelling in a 1927 ()hey, the fain- ily was playing at places as far apart as Windsor, Bowmanvilla and Wasaga beach, Tney played In every hall between London and Windsor, and during the early days of CKNK, when the station was known as 10BP, they were heard regularly on the air. Mrs, Jackson- tells with glee of the time they played in a hall at Wasaga Beaeh right beside another dance spot in which the since-famous, pert Niosi's band was the attraction. "We filled our hall," says Mrs• Jackson, "but Niosi .lost $1200," Early Calamities Life for the Jaelcsons• hasn't been all fun, however. After their-mar- riage in 1908 they settled on a farm in Hullett Township and remained there for only four years, because in two of those years 'they were completely hailed out, lOsing all their crops and ,their, poultry. That was in 1911 and 1912 and then they decided to move back to Mrs. Jackson's home farm, where they still • reside. They made the move in the early spring of 1913, just in time to be caught by the. great Easter windstorm of that year, when the entire , countryside, was badly hit by the storm, , • After the blow was over the young couple went out to survey the 'damage and found that the roof was off the barn, a lean-to at the barn was, completely gone, a chicken house was flattened and the bricks had fallen out of an en- tire end of the house. To cap the whole climax one member of the Jackson family arrived the next morning.

There are three grandchildren. and one great-grandchild, Mrs, Jackson ,is 72 and her htis- band is 78, and both are busy about the, .home and farm, although Mr. Jackson no longer puts in. the crops. Narrow Escape When your writer remarked, to Mr'. Jackson that life had certainly presented its ups and downs, he latighingly• said that excitement started early for'hirn. It seems that when he was 'about two years of age his parents were visiting in London and the adults decided to enter him in a baby contest,,which he won without any trouble, To fill out the happy day the parents de- cided to go to Springbank Park and as they'hurried from the home at which they were staying to the boat dock on the Thames, to catch the steamer to the park, they sad- olenly remembered that they had left behind the bag of unmention- able necessaries for young Bert. His father sprinted .back to the house while his mother proceeded on toward the river with the baby, but despite the haste they missed the boat. By co-incidence it was the ill-fated Victoria, which sank -On the trip they missed with a loss of over, 200 lives—the greatest single tragedy in the history of the city of London. telebrate at Blyth To mark their 50th anniversary Mr, and Mrs, Jackson .held open house at their home yesterday af- ternoon and last evening they en- tertained their many friends at the Blyth community 'hall, As was completely fitting, one of the main features of the 'entertainment was old-time ,music, a good portion of Corbett, Barry remained for a longer visit, Mr, and Mrs. Don Gibson and family of St. Catharines and Mr, Donald Doig of Can Were week- end guests with Mr. and Mrs, Ross Doig.
