More work but less worry in old days 90 -year-old says Mary Layton, who celebrated her 90th birthday last week, remembers the days when she was on the farm in Tuckersmith township as "the best days of farming." Even though those days involved a lot of hard work in the form of churning butter, curing meat and baking bread, Mrs. Layton thinks back on them as simple times. "Everything is so big nowadays. There's more worry to farming today," she says. Born in Tuckersmith township, Mrs. Layton farmed there with her husband Walter, who died in 1976, for close to 50 years. They then retired to Bayfield, where they lived for 20 years. 'One of Mrs. Layton's favourite activities on the farm was puttering around in the garden. Even now, though she lives in, Seaforth at the Kilbarchan Nursing Home, Mrs. Layton tends a window full of violets. Another one of her hobbies is crocheting.. Over the winter she finished several pillows arid two afghans. Mrs. Layton and her four children, Verna ( Mrs. Gordon Hildebrand), of Seaforth, Ed, Glen and Keith a» of the Clinton area, celebrated her birthday last Tuesday with a lunch and musical entertainment at the Kilbarchan Nursing Home. Others attend- ing the party were Ed's wife, Dorothy Layton, Audrey Kerr, one grandchild, Bonnio Strong and the residents of the Local WMS At the recent 36t1i Annual Meeting of the Synodical Society of Hamilton and Lon- don of the Women's Mission- ary Society (Western Divi- sion) of the Presbyterian Church in Canada, held in St. The fancy stitching on the top of a partially -made shoe is examined by the grade 2 and 3 class from St. James School.
