MAIN ST. SHEDS BURNED
Shortly after 2 o'clock Sunday morn-
ing the citizens were awakened by
the alarms or fire, the frame shed at
the rear of the, Main St. Methodist
church having, caught 'fire and when
discovered was making great head:-
way.
earway. The firemen were soon on the
scene with: two streams or water piny
ing on the flames, which was 'shooting
high, the reflection of which was
seen for considerable distance. There
was a slight: wine) blowing at the
time and the sparks were blowing,
onto the residence of Mrs. John 'Brod-
erick, but these were put out with
pails of 'water. The stable or Mrs.
John• :Broderick adjoining the shed
was partly destroyed. There were a
number of chickens in it e.t the time
bet these were all gotten out safe -
Ir. The main cement shed sheds rem
ceived very little damage.
When we had to Shovel
ail the Hay by Hand
In days gone by how we whetted up
the scythe,
And limbered up our Iiver life
ing swing,
To bd ready f'or the day when 'twas
time to mow the hay,
'When the grass began to green up
in the spring,
When the, bay'd grow high how the
flashing blades would fly.
Swung in mighty strokes by browny
farmers tanned,
Tien we forked it in the rack, then
we forked( it in the stack.
!When we had to shovel alt the hay
by hand.
Soon the mows -machine carne in; 'how
we pounced, upon the thing,
And we welcomed it with lusty
shouts or glee,
As a labor saving toot, it outshone
the golden rule,
And we threw our scythes as far
as we'i could see.
Then we got a one horse rake, cocke'.d
the hay in hall a shake,
And tho't that we were doing some-
thing grand.
Then we heaved it on the rack, then
we heaved it in the stack,
For we had to shovel all the hay
by hand.
It wag stack, stack, stark, until you
nearly broke your back;
We were pitching aad a -shoveling
all the day,
For 'twas work, work, work, lit e I
the horny handed 'lurk
As we, hustled and we tussled with
the hay.
For ewes as hay, boys, hay, 'from the
early break or. day
'Tit the evening bre.Pze our furrow-
ed foreheads fanned.
Ab in the days gone by, how we
nide the fodder fly, •
When we h;V1 to shovel all the hay
by hand.
As I sit hero writing this, I can hear
the pulleys hiss,
And the automatic ;stacker eioak
and 'whine.
1: can look out through the window,
see the buck rake in Utz windrow,
As it/ scoops than up a dozen at a
time.
There aro nacre tban 1 can mention
of tbc.c up-to-date luvent.:ons
That case the haying work to b. at
the. bend,
Beats its oft I sadly sigh, for those
tough old days gone by,
'When sea had to shovel all the hay
by hand, „
Mr .arse burs, iia. U. Soukhern and
daughter :lllisd Oro,, or 'Toronto ,have
been visiting at the isome 'of Mr,
David Mack during the week,
!Rev. S. W. Illtzxworthy announced
to his congregation that his !subject in
the Main St. Methodist church next
Sabbath! evening would be, 'Was.
Cereat ijritaiu Guilty of Taaeason Again
at Culture in taking the field against
Uerniany? What Le True !Ciature?"
Mr. Thos. Cresols (received a severe
electric shook at the fire Sunday morn
in. The wirs connected with the shed
came, down and were lying on the
ground and he had the misfortune to
get it tangled around his Leg and re-•
ceived quite a siloc,)r, He was op and
around however, in a few minutes lit-
tle the worse.
Rev. J. W. )3aird, M:rs. Baird and
two daughters arrived in town on
Thursday evening Iast and a (recept-
ion was tendered them at the parson-
