Ethel Resident, 93
Enjoys Birthday
Although she recently celebrated
her 93rd birthday. Mrs. Francis J.
Stephenson, of Ethel. enjoys read-
ing .the newspapers—without her
glasses.
"My eyesight is good," explains
the— nonagenarian whom all the
villagers know as "Jennie". "I
only use glasses to see a dis-
tance."
She received flowers from the
Women's Institute and congratula-:
tory messages from relatives and
friends but to her there is nothing
special about this occasion. "It's
just another day." she mused. "I
guess I've had too many birthdays
to get excited."
Mrs. Stephenson resides with
her son and daughter-in-law, Mr.
and Mrs. Percy Stephenson, She
enjoys working around the house
and gets the urge "now and then"
to do some baking.
"Just the other day. Mother
baked a pie and a pan of biscuits,"
interjected the younger Mrs. Steph-
enson.
According to the nonagenarian
young people today have a lot of
advantages over the' life of her
youth. Means of travel is a main
one. "When I was young a jour-
ney from one town to another
represented quite 'a trip. On our
wedding trip. my husband and I
went by train from Londesboro to
Seaforth—only a few miles now—
but it seemed a long why by train
then"
Mrs. Stephenson still likes car
riding and frequently travels to
Niagara Falls to visit her other
son, Edward.
She was born in .Hullett Town-
ship, daughter of jf'Ir. and Mrs.
Robert Crawford, who had come
from Yorkshire, England. They
were among pioneers who cleared
land around what is now. the
Town of Clinton.
After her marriage to Mr. Steph-
enson on February 12, 1889, they
took up residence in Londesboro
where he worked for the railroad.
Subsequently they moved to Grey
Township to farm. After seven
years on the land, the Stephensons
mbved to Ethel where they have
Since resided. Her husband died
24 years ago.
Mrs. Stephenson is a life mem-
ber of the United Church Women's
Missionary Society, and ,was a
