Sudden Death.—,People of the vil-
lage were greatly shocked when they
heard of the very sudden death of
Robert S. Blair, which took place at
his home shortly before noon Thurs-
day last, March 28th. He had been
engaged all morning drawing gravel,
had put his team in the stable and
gone to the house and was sitting in
the dining room. Mrs. Blair entered
the room in a few moments and found
he had passed away. For some time
he had complained of heart trouble
and had remarked to men with whom
he was working that morning that he
had pains in the region of the heart,
but thought it would pass away as
formerly. Bob, as he was familiarly
known, had a wide circle of friends
who will regret to hear of his sud-
den passing. He was born in Gode-
rich Township March 8th, 1970, a son
of Samuel and Elizabeth Blair, who
with their family came to Bayfield
forty-seven years ago. He was mar-
ried to Miss Maud Weston, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Weston, of
Goderich township, but now of Bay-
field. He is survived by his widow
and three sons and one daughter, Wil-
mer and Robert, at home; George, of
Detroit, and Mrs. Harold Brandon, of
Bayfield. There are also three bro-
thers and five sisters, John Blair, of
Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.; Thomas Blair,
West Superior; Joseph Blair, Port
Huron; Jennie Blair, Sault Ste. Marie,
Ont.; Mrs. Alex. McKenzie, Saskatche-
wan; Mrs. Thomas Ward, Strathcona,
Alta.; Mrs. Robert Harris, Port
Huron; Mrs. Peter McGee, Stanley
township. The funeral was held Sat-
urday afternoon and was one of the
largest ever seen in the village. An
impressive service was conducted by
Rev. R. M. Gale. The pall bearers
were Robert Penhale, George Lind-
say, John Lindsay, John Cameron,
-William Higgins and R. Parker. Geo.
Blair. Detroit; John Blair, Sault Ste.
Marie, and Mrs. Harris and Mr. and
Mrs. H. Parr, Port Huron, were pres-
ent for the funeral. Their many
friends extend heartfelt sympathy to
Mrs. Blair and family in their sad
bereavement.
1 R [DAYS, OTHER
WAYS.
changes, during the .past few
3i ars, in the customs and habits of
440 people in country districts, their
Ways of marketing, of observing holi-
days and many other things, must be
very apparent to anyone who pauses
for a moment to think or observe.
Take a Fair day for instance. That
visas a red letter day, one looked for-
ward to and one that commenced very
early in the morning. If the farmer
was an exhibitor, he drove his stock
to the fair on foot. That meant he
had to be on the road early, so that
the animals could be rested and
groomed before they entered the show
trdng.
And the family were on the road
early, too. They travelled by horse
and buggy, considered a very slow
process to -day, or by team and wagon
which was a very much slower one.
And if there was not room enough
for all the family in these two trans-
ports, the boys and even the girls
were not above walking. To the boys
of that day a few miles walk didn't
seem to mean anything more to the
boy than a few extra miles means to
a motorist to -day.
By ten o'clock in the morning
there was a sizeable crowd in the
town and by noon it would be alive
with people. If the people couldn't
get in by noon, they looked on it as
a half day lost, and with it too much
of the holiday. They wouldn't have
time to shop, to gossip and to see the
sights. It took a whole day and part
of the night to do full justice to a
country fair.
How times have changed. Seaforth
had a Spring Show on Thursday of
last week. It was, probably, the best
spring show in the history of the
Agricultural Society. There was
more and better stock exhibited, and
there 'was the biggest crowd on re-
cord to see the exhibits. By the mid-
dle of the afternoon, Main Street was
crowded and cars were parked for
blocks, on every street leading into
it.
And it didn't take half a day for
this crowd to gather either. It just
tock half an hour or very few min-
utes more. At ten o'clock in the
morning there was nothing to indi-
eate that it was a fair day, and at
noon there w'as no, more traffic than
would be seen on an ordinary week
day. And by six o'clock they had
all vanished. There was no bustle of
preparation; they just slip away.
There is no bustle of preparation
in coming to town either. The farm-
er and his family don't give a great
deal of -attention to the question of
attending a fair until after dinner on
that day. Then if the weather is fine
and other conditions permit, they hop
into the car and are there. And if
the car won't 'hold all the family, the
boys and girls don't draw lots to see
who will stay home or who wilt walk.
Nothing doing. The young people,
especially the feminine end, haven't
great deal of interest in fairs, and
more interest in the fashion ads.
than they have in town shops.
They like to see the crowd and what
the crowd is wearing, but the night
will do just as well for that as the
day time. The old people are wel-
come to the use of the car to attend
:the fair, providing always, they are
?Home in time to let the young people
get in to town at night for the show
and the dance. Therein lies their
greater interest.
Truly other days had other ways.
The older people to -day, come into
town later than they used to do, and
'sliey go home much earlier. The
young people prefer to pay their town
visits in the evening. They, too,
.come in munch later, and they leave
for home much earlier—that is, much
earlier in the morning.

Deacon Dobbs.—:The comedy drama,
"Deacon Dubbs," which was put on
in the Town ! ! all, Hensall, on Tues-
day evening, under the auspices of
the Youth's Welfare Club, of Carmel
Presbyterian Church, which was giv-
en by request, having been put on re-
cently to a full house, was very large-
ly attended and needless to say was
enjoyed by everyone. A full account
of this play in its entirety, was given
through these columns a short time
ago, but we believe all those that took
part in the play, with continued prac-
tise, surpassed their 'former efforts.
The evening was greatly enhanced by

garet Bell and Miss -.,Audrey Murdock
and a delightful solo by Mrs. James
Bonthron, which were numbers given
between acts.

tary -Treasurer, and his resignation
was accepted. Miss Greta McNaugh-
ton was appointed to take Mr. Mc -
Kay's place, and also take his place
on the purchasing committee. Mr.
McKay was an appointee of the pub-
lic school board, and it was suggest-
ed at the meeting to appoint a lady
to fill the positions made vacant by
the resignation of Mr. McKay, who is
leaving Hensall for the present. A
number of ladies were suggested for
the position, but it was decided to
leave it to the public school board to
make the appointment. Before the
meeting closed, Reeve Higgins ex-
pressed his regret at Mr. McKay leav-
ing after twenty years of faithful ser-
vice on the board, also expressing the
wish that he hoped he would soon be
back with them again. Mr. McKay
replied, thanking the Board for their
many expressions of good will and to
the citizens of Hensall for their many
kindnesses.
Passmore -Moir. — A very pretty
wedding took place at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Moir, of the Lon-
don Road, North, recently, when their
daughter, Miss Rose, was united in
marriage to Alvin Roy Passmore, son
of Mr. and Mrs. William Passmore,
of Exeter. The ceremony was per-
formed at one o'clock by Rev. J. Mc-
Ilroy, of Hensall, in the presence of
the immediate relatives of the con-
tracting parties. The bride was be-
comingly attired in a beautiful gown
of blue satin faced crepe with orna-
ments of brilliants and with a bridal
wreath that came to the shoulder.
She entered the parlor on the arm of
her father to the strains of the wed-
ding march played by Miss Janet
White, of Hensall. During the sign-
ing of the register, Mrs. Mcllroy sang
the bridal chorus. The rooms were
beautifully decorated in pink and
white. Following the ceremony the
guests repaired to the dining room,
where a very dainty wedding dinner
was served. The bride was the re-
cipient of many beautiful presents,
including a cheque from the groom.
The groom's gift to the pianist was
a brooch set with pearls and ame-
thyst. Mr. and Mrs. Passmore left
for a wedding trip to Toronto and
Georgetown, the bride travelling in a
dress. of black crepe with navy blue
coat ;with fur trimming, with hat and
shoes to match. On their return they
took up their residence on the groom's
fine farm on the Thames Road.
