comes the names of some of them to mind austin and george tubby jack and bob young tom clark fred barber dick alien a these rep resent a cross section of the lads of that day and the various life work they took up each becoming success- ful in his line of the tubby brothers austin be came leading salesman in a large wholesale millinery house in torontol george was a rover and beginning as an svernan on one of the canadian pacific surveys rose steadily to be a high executive in railroad life from which he was moved up to be gen eral storekeeper on the huge pana ma canal project carried on

j p school trustee and has been re turning officer at every election for many years this cross section gives ah idea of the resourcefulness and ability of those named but it could be greatly multiplied by those whose names do not come to me at the moment and goes to show the worthwhile stamp of men the them village turned out all but dick allen have passed on to their greater reword and i am moved to write this as apropos to the recent centennial celebrations and to say that the last of the above named except allen to go up higher was bob young who died early in octo ber in winnipeg after rounding out 81 years of those named bob and the writer met most frequently during the years and had much to common and i wish i hod the privilege of saying something of his character and per
