Canada's procress since Confeder- ation has been phenomenal. We dshould rejoice that, notwithstanding interruptions by war and other im- pediment.'i, we have had healthy prowth and have on the whole been a prosperous people. What chances have these 60 yearc! Witnessed ? In 1867 we had no railways west of Pembroke on the north and Samia on the southwest. The Intercolonial was unbuilt. The two (Treat transcontinental lines were then but dreamed of. We had no electric railways. No electric lights. No telegraphs. No wireless. No cinemas. No cable to Canada. No automobiles. No flyinjT machines. No Western provinces. No rural mail delivery. No silver, ETold or nickel mininKjin Ontario. No vote by ballot. No woman suffraKO. Vast chanKcs, these. What may not happen before the Dominion is a century old ? ' Mrs. Jas. Hall Passes There died on Monday, June 20th at the home of her son, Wilfred Hall at EppinK, Sarah Jane Fawcett, belov- ed wife of James Hall and eldest dauKhter of the late Robert and Eliza- beth Fawcett, at the age of 78 years. Converted in her teens she retained that beautiful Chrijtian experience until her death. She leaves to mourn their loss her p-"^ husband and four sons.

The r->ral of- fr-rir'-- were beautiful. Fred Graham in Accident Mr. and Mrs. Fred Graham and dausrhter of W'alkerton experienced a very bad motor accident on Sunday of last week when Mr. Graham had his collar bone broken and a severe cut in his left leg. Mi.is Loreen Gra- ham had her left arm fractured above the elbow, and Mrs. Graham had cuts in both legs. They were side-swiped by a laree Willyo-Kniprht car, owned in Guelph by a man named Dunbar, and which appears to have been tray- ellinc at terrific speed. Mr. Gra- ham's car, a Chevrolet touring, was terribly smashed up and ij not of much use. Mr. Graham is an old Eugenia bey and the many friends of this estimable couple both here and at Eugenia deplore the accident. THE OLDEST SEWING MACHINE Recently a well known sewing ma- chine company instituted a search for the oldest sewing machine in Canada or the United States. It was in 1851 that the first practical sewing mach- ine was put on the market, just 70 years ago. Machines upwards of 60 years old were found in large num- bers and the agent reports a few of bers. The oldest one discovered had been in use 74 yars an was in the .States, but a woman in Cranbrook, B. C, had one that has been doing duty for 7.3 years and a""ther in New Glas- gow, N.S., had served its owners for the same period. Every one of these old machines was taken by the SincT Co. in exchange for one of the finest machines made by that company to-day.
