CELEBRATED HIS xo6th
BIRTHDAY
On Sunday, Ashfield's "grand 'old
than", . John Barnby, ,celebrated his
iodth birthday at. his home on the east
half of lot 2; concession 12, Ashfield
township.
Mr. Barnby, for all his great age' is
still active and is still` able to be 'a-
bout the house every day, although
he spends a good deal of his time in
his chair, Age has dealt kindly with
him, however. His mind functions
well, and his memory is, good. Years
have dimmed his eyes and his hearing
also is failing, although with the use
of ear phones he can still listen -in on
and enjoy the radio. He is very fond
of music, and in his younger days he
had a rich and powerful voice, and,
even now, when he sings, as he often
does, his voice holds much of its 're-
sonance and beauty. He loves to sing
the old hymns and psalms, which, for
scores of years, he has been acous-
tomed to sing and which he loves so
well.
He was born on March ii, 2822, at
Beeford, Yorkshire, England., about
s8 miles from the City of Hull, and
was thus a young lad of 15 years
when the. late Queen Victoria came to
the throne of England'. He has lived
in the reigns of five British sover-
eigns. At the age of 22, in ,1344, he
came to Canada on a sailing vessel
with a brother three ,years his junior.
.At that time there were only 18 miles
of railway extending from Montreal,
and the first steamship had arrived at
the Port of Quebec a short time pre-
vious to this. He remained at Mon-
treal for a time, coining later to the.
vicinity of Hamilton and Woodstock,
where he was employed as 'a farm
hand. It was while at Woodstock that
he married Miss Elizabeth Johnston,
who has been buried in the church-
yard at Zion Church Eor over 4o years.
It was about nine or ten years after
his arrival in Canada, in 1854, that he
came to the Township of Ashfield, and
like many others, took up land cover -
of the wilderness of forest a home for
ed with great timber, and carved out
himself and fancily, and became one of
those hard-working,, sturdy, clean -
living sons of toil who have been the
backbone of Canada. He -settled • on
the farm on the Beth concession of
his home foe!, upwards of three-quar-
Ashfield, which has continued to be
ters of a century.
His family consists ,mf.one daughter
Mrs. !Meredith, of Edmonton, and two
sons, William Barnby of Wheatlands,
North Dakota, and James Barnby,
with,whon he resides. He has been
associated all his life with the Metho-
dist Church, being one of the main-
stays of Zion (now United) Church
in the Ashfield' • circuit. Two years ago
when this church celebrated its
dia-
mond. jubilee, his picture occupied a
prominent place in the booklet gotten
out by the church. Until he was 8o
years of age he walked 1.0 this church

TALE OF THE "KIPPER!'
io-iv the Herring is 1.'raunsfortned
pito the "Kipper,"
In 1846 Mr. John 'Woodgor, of
Newcastle, invented the kipper, says
an article in Tit -Bits, but it has hes
become an every day dish with peo-
ple in the Old Country that few think
about bow or where the herring is
transformed.
Now the movements of herrings
are very uncertain. Shoats appear off
different coasts at different seasons
and curing establishments are pro-
vided at various ports,
The curing sheds must be cleaned
and lime -washed, the wooden sttchs,
known as "tenters," on which the
Ash are smokedhave to be scraped
and renewed where necessary. Thti
station manager looks to his stores
of salt, oak -turnings, sawdust, trans-
parent wrapping paper, wood, naffs,
and wire for,eboxes,
Ever since the herrings began to
appear he ha' sent a' daily wire to
London reorting on the catch. This
is calculated by grans, a crap being ix
measure ; containing from 8010 to
1,200 herrings, according to ssz'.
Imagine that the staff have arriv-
ed and we are visiting the port whore
curing is in full swing. Women and
girl workers, protected from the. wet
PS, b, rubber boots and waterproof
aprons, stand at long benches piled
with fish; and in three neat move-
ments ut their shurt-bladed kzirrei
split the herrings.
Skill in this operation is of the
first importance, because badly cu
fish lose value. The split "fish art,
dropped into wicker baskets and car-
ried to the washing tank.
,When cleaned they are soaked in
brine for ten to thirty minute,, ac-
cording to size.. Care is requi'.'d to
ensure that the split fish are openfdt
out so that every part conies in..e(.n
tact with' the pickle, which must ee
kept up to strength.
After pickling, the fish are flung oft
tenter -hooks, fixed on wooden bare'
about one and a half inches thick of.
the same length as the width of the
kiln house. Each hook carries twelve
fish, and they are placed across the
smoke-housd itt rows.
Heat as well as smoke is ntam-
eary. and oak chips and oak sawdust
are best. A fire of these materiels
is lit on the hard floor of the lair,
When it t begins to die down It
usually replenished with savrduat
only, which results in a volume a„
smoke being' given off.
By the time the fire has spent lir•
self again some of the lower rows el
fish are ready for cooling off, and
after the fire has been made up for
the third time the .whole batch is
ready for cooling. •
A smoker not only stokes the
fres, but operates the vent holes,
draught doors, louvres, and chimney
shafts. " . As the kippers should allbe
of a uniform shade the bars on.
which they hang must be moved from
tier to tier .and the heat and smoke
directed to any particular part need-
ing attention.
Before the kippers are taken off
the hooks they are examined by an
expert, who rejects any that are not
up to standard. The finest dish are
wrapped in transparent paper.
Imitation kippers are produced by
means " of dipping herrings in a
harmless dye which gives approxi -
Mately 'the same color as the gen-
uine article, writes Capt. Drieford in
Progress. Far less skill and labor
is expended in this process.
Canada Reserves Right.
• Canada has served notice, says the
Financial Post, on the world that it
reserves the right to do as it likes
in prohibiting the export . of raw
materials,
At Geneva, a conference was held
to try to bring to an end import and
export prohibitions and restrictions
throughout the world. At the confer-
ence Dr. W. A. Riddell, Canada, said
no country had been ".so prodigal in
the export of its raw materials as
Canada, nor had opened itsdoors
wider to exports from other coun-
tries. The' Canadian tariff had been
reduced four times in the past six
years. One result had been a growth
In trade unsurpassed, in any other
country. Another result had been
the growth of a feeling' that, if the
present rate' of export ,continued,
there was danger'of the depletion of
the country's natural resources. In
;practice Canada had followed the pol-
icy of the open door, but in theory
was being driven to the policy of
reservations.
Dr. Riddell warned the eonference
to avoid extremes. He was wise.
Canada is not ready to give . up its
right to protect its future by restrict -

cious raw materials,

TUB ISLAND OF MALTA.
It Is One .ot the Most Important Porte
In the Medliiterruuean Sea.
Malta is the well-known island in
about the' centre of the Mediterran-
ean Sea, and known during the cen-
turies of the existence of the Roman
Empire as Melita. It was the scene,
of the shipwreck ttf St. Paul while
on his voyage as a prisoner from
Caesarea,the portof Judea,to R
ome'the seat f the imperialgovernment,
The island is 17 miles in length and
has an area of 91 r/s square miles,
which is about equal to the area of
Albion Township in Peel County, On-
tario, It has a population of about
25
1a 000.
Malta, or ancient Melita, was held
inturn by Phoenicians, Greeks, Car
thaginiane and by the Arabs in 870.
From 1000 it wap joined in govern-
ment to Sicily until 1630, when it
was handed over to the K nights of
St. John, who ruled until dispersed
by l+aapoleon in 1798. From 1798
to 1800 it was blockaded by the Brit-
ish fleet, and was finally annexed to
the British Crown b*' the Treaty of
Paris of 1814.
Malta is one of the most important
porta of call in the world, and it is
the base and resort for repairs and
refitment of the British fieet in the
Mediterranean. its chief harbor,
which is a naval station, is strongly
fortified. The capital is Valletta.
Under the constitution of 1921,
Matta has an elected Legislature to
control purely local affairs, consist-
ing of a' Senate of 17 members, some
of whom are appointed and some
elected and a House of Assembly of
E2 elected members. There is a re-
sponsible ministry of seven members
who preside over the public depart-
ments. The bead of the Government'
is styled Governor and Commander -
In -Chief.
English is the official language of
the oolony. The lialtett language ie
allowed in the elementary, schools,
and Italian is the official language of
re orb in the Law Courts.
There is a public school system
and the pupils number about 20,000,
besides secondary schools and a uni-
versity with 180 students.
The chief products of Malta are
'wheat and other grains of temperate
countries, vegetables, grapes and
other fruits, and cotton. The manus
factures inelude lace, cotton textiles,
filigree and cigarettes. Agriculture
is the chief industry, ,and the island
is well supplied with horses, . mules
and asses, horned cattle, sheep and
goats. The annual value ofthe ex-
ports from Malta is about 87,000,000.
JEWItIES IN ENGLAND..
Four Jewish Quarters Indicated by
Surviving Street Names.
Many towns had anciently their
Jewish quarters, in which the Jews
were compelled to dwell, and these
localities are frequently indicated by
surviving street names. The Old
Jewry and the New Jewry in London
are instances. The Jews were prob-
ably first admitted into the kingdom
at the Conquest, and those of. Lon-
don settled in what is now the Old
Jewry. Edward the First expelled
all the Jews, but they were re-
admitted by Cromwell, and many of
them, taking up their residence in ea
London, occupied the New Jewry.
There were Jewries in many other
towns, such as Lincoln, Leicester,
and Norwich. At Leicester the frag-
ment of wall which has survived
from Roman times is known as the
Jewry Wall, because in the Middle
Ages the Jews dwelt near it.
The Jews are not the only for-
eigners who have left evidence of
their presence in the street names
of our towns. The Flemings appear
to have given their name to Flemin-
irate, in Beverley.
In Southampton there were an-
ciently, and may be still, a French B.
street and an English street, names
of great significance when we res
member that this port was long the El
principal link between the England -
on this side of the Channel and an-
other England on the other.
These names call to mind the dis-
tinction of nationality seemingly im-
plied by the names of the English
and the Welsh bridges at Shrews-
bury. But these names are compar-
atively modern. The fernier bridge
was built in . 1774 and replaced an
old fortified bridge, known as the
East Bridge:. The Welsh Bridge was
built about twenty years later to
take the place of a picturesque but
inconvenient structure of seven
arches, bearing the name of St:
George's Bridge.

British Investment In Canada.
Canadians would be considerably
surprised if they were given full de-
tails of the British investment going
into Canadian channels at the prele-
,eat time, according to
10. IL Peacock,
,
director of the Bank of England and
of the Canadian Pacific' Railway: The
Britisher does not seek publicity tri
his business deals, he stated, with
the result that large sums of money
were often laced in the Dominionp
and never heard of, , A case in point
he mentioned was the investment of
himself and five other capitalists of
£20.0,000 in timber interests in.Brit-
ish Columbia five years ago, and, up -.I
on the suttees of this venture the
further investment of £300;000.
