A. L. Nicholls, Bowmanville's firat cash-and-carry merchant flow refired, brought this picturO in ta see if the editor recognized the modest looking young gentleman, holding the antique vebicle of propelled transportation. Sure we did for he is none other'than aur* esteemed nonegenarian citizen, Mr.. Haggith, who naw lives on Church street, with his niece, Mrs. . Bartlett. We have often heard Ted relate some of his experiences on extended trips on bis bicycle, one in particular was ta Rochester, N.Y. Can you imagine maklng such a long trip as that on suclh a vehicle? Times and conditions cer- tainly do change, but a picture such as this recalis many pleasant memaries of how people enjayed life back in the goad aid days.

Last week The Financial Post gives more interesting facts about the life of Mr. Christie in theso womds: President at 76 Thore could flot be a botter background for the presidency of the Great-West Lif e than ta bave a man in that office wbo came west as a youngster and "made goad." That is the stary af the Allan family, which gave the campany its former president, the late George W. Ailan. It compie. ments the history af the company itself, which startéd in the West 49, years ago and "came East" ta make good in a big way as a great nat4oriai institution. Tenew president (third ta hold'that office) is Melbourne F. Christie. His father came out froni Scotland as a very young man and' entered the employ of a mercan- tile finm in Montreai. Later ho moved ta Melbourne, Quobec, Eastenn Townships. This town is on the St. Francis River and ho conducted business there for a numben of years. The family next moved ta what was thon known as Upper Canada and settled in Bowmanvilie, where M. F. Chris- tie was born. He was namod Melbourne St. Francis aitor the town and the river from which they had just moved. Apparently bis father was very fond of that section af the country. Not long aftorwatd bis father nemoved the "St." from his name "for obviaus reasons," as ho said. Mr. Christie had the dis- tinction ai boing born in the only castie the town boasted, known as Castle Dangerous. It apparently was a jerry-built affair, bult for a railnaad hotel but was nover used as sucb. One of Mn. Christie's f ew pas- tumes as a youth was ta go ta the village of Newcastle where the original Massey plant started and also ta, visit the Dominion fish batchenies in the same town. Ho gat bis first job when ho wae 16 yeans aId. This was lu Chicago, where ho was a salesman for a new form af pnintors' quains, but this job came ta a sudden end when-it was found that the new product was infninging on ànother patent. Ho, returned ta bhis home tawn -and gat a job as office boy in the Upper Canada Furnituro Ca., atI that lime the largest in- lustry of its kind in Canada, rnanufacturing ovorything from kitchea chairs ta elaborately cary- ed sideboards, and upholsteredj furnîtune. chiefly of horsebair.I H~e rocalîs receiving a manthly cheque for bis efforts of $16.66.

Mr. Christie remembers Winni- peg in 1882 as a crude, blustoning frontior tawn cbiofly famous for wind. At the time of bis arrivai the great land boom was at its height and Ibis was followed by same years of dopression. Mn. Christie was one of the first members of the Winnipeg Rowing Club and, the St. George Snow- shoe Club. Ho says quito fnankly: "I nover excelled in any sport but enjoyed sailing, rowing, snow- shoelag and particulanly basebail." Ho played a lot af baseball and bas always been and stilI is an ardent fan. Ho was one of the original members of the first golf club in Winnipeg. Ho bas travelled quite oxten- slvely, but during the hast f 0w yoars has taken veny few boidays. His chie! hobby of late is ama- teur gardenlng in the summer tume. Ho usod ta spend a lot of time at bis summer.home at Lake of the Woods but lately has stay- ed at homo ta look after bis gar- don. Ho bas spent most of bis win- Fuller. trs in Winnipeg. Ho stats that ho would nover bo contented any- wbene else. Ho was one of the group of mn wba fomed the Manitoba Branch of the Canadian Manufacturos' Association and ho later acted as Manitoba chairman. Ho was the first president af the Botter Busi- ness Bureau and the Employens Association. Ho as been on tbe board of the Winnipeg General Hospital for sanie years. His as- sociation with the Great-West goos back 20 years. Having been ln the West fan so many years ho bas seon its booms and deprossions and always bas been and continues ta be s firm believer in ils potentialities. How- ever, ho stili reads bis bome-town papon, The Canadian Stalesman. His vigor and bearing belle bis 76 years.
