¥ 4. SDE -- _-- a a Lh ao T na = Prince Albert Couple Celebrate Golden Wedding ' On July 6th, 1887, in the year of the Jubilee of Victoria the Good, Miss Martha Curl, of Zephyr, Ontario, be- came the bride of Mr. George Kerry of Georgina Township. The Rev. A. G. McLachlin of Zephyr, performed the ceremony. About five years after the wedding the bridal pair moved to the Township of Reach where they have since re- sided. Their home was on the Sixth Concession up until ten years ago when they removed to Prince Albert where they have since made their home. Seven children came to bless the happy union, three sons and four daughters, viz: Norman, whose homestead is near the Village of Ourgre, Sask.; Harold, who operates a grist mill in Reach Township, and Herman, who resides on the old homestead; Stella, wife of Frank Millman, farmer, Reach Tp.; Alma, wife of Milton Prentice, store- keeper, at Sonya; Olive, wile of How- ard McMillan, farmer, Reach Tp.; and Cora, wife of Earl Howsam, who runs a grist mill at Altona. Besides this unbroken circle of sons and daughters, twenty-one grand- children have come to bless them. In spite of advancing years Mr. Kerry is hale and hearty. He has a very vigorous constitution and is able to do a hard day's work far better than many another twenty-five years t his junior. He has about three acres of land in Prince Albert and is kept constantly employed with his garden, hens, cow and hogs. He is very much attached to his home and family and nothing delights him more than to be sur- runded by his children who so often come to visit and if it-is. possible to enhance the sweet content of their lives it is when the grandchildren come to pay their respects to their devoted grandparents. It is no wonder that the quiet vil- lage of Prince Albert was en fete when the children came to pay the honour which was their due on Tuesday even- ing of July 6th, on that happy Golden Wedding Day. Thirty-four guests were present. Costly and useful gifts were - presented, many congratulatory messages were received and a delight- ful supper served, . A musical pro- who proved to be most efficient artists. The estimable couple occupy a warm spot in the hearts of all that have the pleasure of their acquaintance. THey are quiet and unassuming and none know fully the depths of -their warm loving hearts until they are passing through trouble of any kind it is then that they get the full force of their wholehearted generous naturés which' is shut up to none in their need. That Mr. and Mrs. Kerry may long live to enjoy the great respect of all their friends, neighbours and acquaintances is the fervent wish of their many admirers.

TRY COURTESY Will Save Many Children from being Crippled for a Life-time Carelessness. or lack of courtesy on the part of motorists is just as dread a disepse for children as tuberculosis, rickets or infantile paralysis, thinks Reg. W, Hopper, executive secretary of the Ontario Society for Crippled Children, . In a recent interview Mr, Hopper stated that a great many children would continue to walk through life on their own feet instead of crutches if motorists would show more courtesy when driving on streets or highways where children were encountered, He felt the Ontario Department of Highways degerved much credit for its "Try Courtesy" promotion work to check highway traffic accidents and pointed to the campaign being con- ducted by the Minister of Highways, Hon. T. B. McQuesten as a powerful reason in saving the lives and limbs of many children. - "But being courteous to a child or any other pedestrian", insisted Mr. Hopper, "doesn't mean simply refrain- ing from swearing at him because he gets in the path of your car." Along with poiteness, courtesy includes care- fulness, thoughtfulness, and consider- ation for the rights and comforts of other people." : "Accidents in which children are in- volved are by no means always the fault of drivers, he stressed, because "children have an astonishing faculty for getting into accidents," In On- tarjio dyring 1038, 1600 children were injured in automobile accidents. Sixty- six children under fourteen years of age were killed by collision with motor cars. Twenty-six of these were tiny toddlers of four years," ot The danger periods, said Mr, Hop- per, are up to 14 years of age, ' More boys-and girls under 14 years are uh way for the children and otherwise act in a courteous becomes our fellow-motorist ? of it unhurt? And do we, in the many other ways th : A Entering a Store you are Courteous-- » "When You Enter Traffic WHEN we entér or leave a store we are all most courteous, We stand back for one another, hold open the doors, make towards our fellow-shoppers.

"They know no danger, these young- sters who are so eager for fun. Most children exhibit no fear whatever of cars. They have no realization of the danger they are in where automobile traffic is involved. "It's all very well for some of us to say these children should he more careful but that doesn't relieve the | adult motorist from the major part of the responsibility for the child's safety". y : "Today many pale-faced children lie in hospital cots; many of them are in plaster casts and many will be perma- nently crippled due to negligence on somebody's part. Accidents in most cases are avoidable but the responsi- bility must lie with adults.

Old things, old values, old faiths have sunk into oblivion that sometimes it is wise to stop and take a retrospec- tive view of the past and to plan our future way accordingly. : Take 'gold for instance, for many long centuries men have pected, Id, as a supreme object of attainment, Today $18,000,000,000 is in the hands of practically three nations, the rest of the nations have comparatively none. Only a few years since it was a common slogan to say that an Emi- grant was worth $1,000 to this country and agents were sent to the uttermost parts of the earth to com- pel them to come in, it mattered mot how but get, them if you can, but to day they,are not wanted at any price. Was the world wrong in its quest for gold,\if not why is it that nations are. seeking some other object that will take the place of gold to use as a means of exchange for commerce instead of returning to the old primi- tive method of barter? Were the leaders of our nation mis- informed when they sought the ad- mission of emigrants to this fair land and considered them so great an asset? : Surely {the men who emerged from the ranks in the earlier days were not bereft of their senses. stance Macdonald, Laurier, Thompson, Borden, and' our present Premier.

The Danes are the most co-operative people to be found anywhere. They are able to satisfy the needs of her most fastidious customers and her dairy products are hard to beat. Yet she is a small nation and her citizens are among the best informed and finest equipped of all her neighbours. Sweden has developed a form or Socialism "which excels that of all other lands and though she is not num- bered among the wealthiest it would be hard to find a mo¥e contented na- tion under the sun, In far off Japan the people are a _ hing mass.

She was unable to secure on industrial revolution such as put- Britain on her feet, for she has no coal, but she could and is utilizing white power, elec- tricity generated from a thousand falls and is thus enabled to excel her rival and leave her, business opponénts far in the background.

Thousands of others are prospering what is to stop you? If you are worth $1,000 to Canada what is Canada worth to you? The answer is: "Any price you care to put upon yourself. . nd Gold, it is true is not performing at present, the function for which it was intended, only- because of its mal-dis- tribution. «That condition will soon be righted and then nothing on earth can stop prosperous times returning.
