BERT KEMPSTER. to the Editor Box 39, Medicine tint, Alta., October 14, 1955. Editor, Signal -Star.. Sir,—I wish to renew my sub- scription to the Signal -Star, for another year. It is now 60 years, September 1, 1895, since I left Goderich, to take charge of the school at Dunmore, then Assiniboia, N.W.T. I was born and raised on a farm in Colborne Township, my parents being the late Thomas Sallows and Jean Green: I have one brother, William T. Sallows, and one sister, Mrs. ,Maude E. McBride, still living in the old township that was called ,home. Alter teaching for two' years, I returned to Ontario, and married -Agnes J. Campbell, daughter of the late Thomas .Campbell and Mary Broadfoot, who lived on a farm, near my home. But on the birth of my first daughter, she was call- ed by death, and I was left alone. I then returned to Ontario, where 1 left my little girl with my mother and sister, Maude, who brought her up; until she was 12 years of age. Shethen made her home with me in the West. Since this time she has married, and raised a family of four clever girls. It is with her that I am living in my old age. In my life on the Prairies, I have seen many vast and import- ant changes. When .I first came, there were no roads, fences, few habitations, gardens, or any of the amenities and conveniences, which we take for granted now, as part of our living standard. The area that is now Alberta had a popula- tion of about 120,000. Now its population is well over the 1,000,000 mark. Medicine Hat had about 500' people clustered around the station,. Now it is a growing city of over 20,000. On September 1, 1905, Alberta and Saskatchewan became provinces of Canada. As the 110th meridian' became the boundary linebetween them, Medicine Hat and the country east of that line were included in Al- berta.' Edmonton became the new capital. • 1 have thus seen Alberta rise from being one of the poorest provinces in Canada until. now it is one of the richest4 with its bustl- ing cities, paved highways, irrigat- ed farms, and ,electric power now in many of the rural areas. One factor contributing to Al- berta's wealth, has been the de- velopment, of several new major oil fields. Yet geologists claim that we have only scratched the surface as yet. But the Pr'ovince's economy is still based solidly on agriculture. For example, in 1952 Alberta's oil production was valued at $168,000,- 000, while its agricultural produc- tion was-- valued at $758,000,000. So it really was the settlement of the prairie provinces that has prov- ed to be the greatest .single factor which has made Canada one of the world's greatest Tod .producers and laid the foundation for the expanding industrialization of On- tario and Quebec. For without the West, Canada would not be the prosperous, unit- ed, well-fed confidentenattion it is today andit waa-the adventurous, hard worllng, determined pion- eers, who made these prairie pro- vinces what they are today. Hence 1955 becomes the anniversary of our Golden Jubilee, for celebrat- ing these achievements. Yours truly, JAMES SALLOWS, Mrs. Frank Bowra Heads Rebekahs At a meeting of Goderich Re- bekah Lodge, 'Tuesday evening of last week in' MacKay Hall, District Deputy President, Mrs. Mary Sut- ter, Clinton, and her staff installed new officers for the coming year.

" Fifty Years of Hospitalization (Continued from page i) plant and laundry were provided. This new -addition was officially opened on July 1, 1948, The present building with all its facilities to care for patients in this community represents the combined efforts of • many citizens who have worked from 1900 to the present. Minute books of the Board record the names and the efforts of the many persons who have served on the Board. Other accounts of outstanding effort is recorded in the books of the Ah - meek and Maple Leaf Chapters, I.0.D:'E., the Women's Hospital Auxiliary, the !Wom 's ,Institute of ,Goderich and the surrounding Townships, the Service Clubs in more recent years. Records show the interest and financial assist- ance of many ind'ivid'uals' and fain- ilies, without whose help, the pre- sent building *duld not have .been pose''-ble. The many doctors who have worked in the hospital could add .much to the story. The Super- intendents, nurses, and other mem- bers of the staff could tell much of the care and comfort which -they have tried to provide, and could, if they wished, tell of the express- ed appreciation 'of many patients.

With Wilfred Shortreed, Walton, president, in the chair, a report on the federation's display booths' at nine county fall fairs this fall was given by the secretary -field - man, Gordon Greig.
