At Edmonton, Alberta. Edmonton, July 1, 1907 Dear Readers:- The 'glorious First is here again with its fire- crackers and fun, and who of tis but renall the Firsts gone by when we as barefoot boys wandered along the streams, fishing rod in hand. To be sure the fish caught ware tiny but the sport was none the less on that account and how we envied the boy with the biggest string of fish ! Later on when we were barefoot. boys rio longer, came the merry and never to be forgotten picnics ou the shores of old Lake Huron at Bayfield, Drysdale, or Grand Bend. My ! how delicious were the straw- berries and cream, roast chicken, lemon pies, and other delicacies. A picnic as an appetizer is unrivalled. Well here's to all my friends old or young, with whom I have spent other Firsts, may this one be as joyous to you as former ones. Altho an impossible wish I would fain he with you today. Nor must I forget the Calithumpian parade and last and paramount the Union Jacks floating whatever way one turned. _And up here in this northermost provincial capital of our great Dominion the loved Union Jack floats as proudly oyer our city in the glorious Alberta sunshine as anywhere else in the land. I use the word northermost, for do you know that Edmonton is three hund- red and eighteen miles from the International boundary line? Take down your map of Canada and com- pare this with the distance of any other capital from the same line. Three events, each important in its own sphere, help to make this a gala -day for the citizens of Edmon- ton. The provincial exhibition commenced this afternoon, the laying of the corner -stone of the new $65,000 Y M C A building took place at 11.30 this morning, and to the small boy (as well as some old- er boys) the most important event of the day, the circus with its tele- scope man, African cannibal, won- derful equilibrists and pink lemon- ade, cold as ice and sweet as honey Only four decades have passed since the Confederation of our Dominion and what a marvellous change has taken place; from a small domain of four provinces in 1867, unrecognized among the nations of the world Canada has risen surely and steadily to the state of a nation and even yet is in its infancy. Many now living will see the day when Canada evill. stand in the forefront of ..natione. commercially, financially, and let it be hoped intellectually and morally as well. For after all is said and done. morality is the strength of a nation and the good name and character of her citizens is a better safe -guard than trade. commerce, money, army, and navy all combined. Let those who doubt study the pest history of Persia, Greece,,Rome, Carthage and Spain There are four great forces at work in the unbuilcling of a nation ; the Home, the Church, the School. and the Government, and among these four the Horne stands first and supreme. As the average Home is so will the nation be. True the other three may to a great ex- tent blend home -life but reed strength lies in the Home itself. In fact it is the lack of the ideal home life that makes the other three necessary. We already bold the reputation of being one of the most moral nations of the world, it is for us ns citizens to guard that reputation since in it lies our chief strength. Dominion Day is one easily cele- brated by all parties. orders, and peoples within our borders, for it marks no great congnest or revolve tion as so many celebrations do,. but, on the contrary, narks unity. A unity, which, begun in 1867, has been growing in size and intensity, the welding together as it were of a great empire, shall I say? Wes ! it is an empire beside which many an. European empire looks small and insignificant. Altho we have now nine provinces the welding is not yet complete and will not be until the Yukon, Mackenzie, Kewatin, Ungava, Franklin, and Newfound- land are each a province of our land. Some of you niay smile at the mention of these provinces, but at Confederation many people no doubt smiled at the mention of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Al- berta as likely provinces ; they then were part of the Great Lone Land, the home of the moose, the bear, and the beaver but now part of the banner -wheat -belt of the world. Others may say, why ! what do the territories contain? That's just the question we want answered and time alone will tell. We al- ready know.that wheat and other grains can be successfully grown 400 miles north of here, we also know there is gold. silver, rock salt petroleurin, gas, coal, and iron de- posits. Who would say that the great northland is not au empire in iteelf, GET THE BEST Lf ai'•i'7i ...

Services were held in the forenoon, afternoon and evening, the two latter being devoted mainly to the Sabbath school children.. The neat and ohrnfortable ohuroh was pret- tily decorated with flowers for the occasion and at the children's ser- vioes interesting programmes of music and recitations by the choir and ;children and addresses were given. The services were partly in German and partly in English.

The third storm period, reaction- ary, is central on Saturday, Sunday and Monday, the 13th, 14th and 15. The planet Mars is not only passing opposition, but be is nearer as July 12th than for fifteen years past, or than he will be for fifteen years to come. This fact enters largely in- to terrestrial problems through all this part of the mouth, also Jupit- er's conjunction on the 16th. Seis- mic and volcanic disturbances will be most natural for a period of several days, centering on and about the 10th, the date of a solar eclipse. Low barometer, threaten- ing oonditions and probably beavy mid -summer storms will culminate about, the 13th, 14th and 15th. Existing canses may prolong storms and other disturbances on through. the 16th and 17th, into the next storm period. The fourth storm period, regale" is central on the 20th, covering the 18th to the 23rd. Wo fear that the rainf;i.,l1 at, this and other central and glee; July storm periods will be scattering• and light. Very black and blustering storm clouds will alni:ost,oertainly appear at the eul- mina.tion of storm periods, ,and phenomenal "water spouts" inay coeur here and there ; but the gen- eral rainfall will be far below the ac '.nal needs of the season. The 2(p to 22nd will be culminating storm days, following which look fee rising barometer and change to sone cooler. V e understand that S. Ronnie means business and if furnished a free site by the people of Hensall will erect a fine brick hotel 40 by 60 feet, three stories high,-Hensall Observer.
