SOME WEST END HISTORY Industrial Bowinanville Long Ago The Bowmiannvîlle editor of Or- 0110 News gave this interesting bit of history of the ýwest side of this town away back into the 50's and 360's of last century: The death of Mr. James Pirie, marks the passi1ng a;way of one of t~he oldest residents of! the early d'ays of Bowmainville. Jhniai liv- ed allbis long life up in the wesýt end and unlike bis brothers Georg-e and Williani, he was a regular stay at hom-e. His father in the early d:ïys carried on the business of tbail- oring in the samne placýe, the old family residence, w\hich was burned a few years ag-o. He was somrewhat of a musical turn of mind and the efhances the old bagpipes are yet to the fore, at least they were a short period ago. Jimmiiie worked for a number of yvears fil the ljpper Canada Furnliture eliip an-d 'his place was neyer vacant. Jiriamiies passing awny is about the last relict of the oid west end whIch serventy years ago wias the industriai part of the town. The large Flour Mills _ (nowý Vanstone's) is still do- ing business as in the olden time, but NIeads Foundry and Machine shop with the Gifford Tannery ani-d the Soap works, the Squair Grist Miii1 nnd Ont Meal. Miii, together with. the williams ~adn Mili, nnd last but not least the Mimne Distiliery, where the kids of the neighiborhood were sent for yeast and where the grown- ups went for thront lubricant, which at the period was ilot bootleg- stuif or shoe poiish but the real: thing-all gone. Also Glass Worksý. The John Burk's store (late the Flax factory) was the big trading m'art an-d the .big Bank of that tim-e' was the smiail brick building on west side of Scugog Street south of the Old Folks Honie that was burned n few years ago. Squair's store was directly oppôsite the Burk establishimenît, -and it strikes this scribe that the Rev. John Clinmie was the proprietor of The Statesman of that period. Weii, there lias been a wondlerfuil lot of wnter passed under the big bridge since then, and many changes in the towr. and the old we-t iend since Bailey kept tavern just below where Vanistone's fine residence stands. This place ,was quite a stoppin- place for the farmers from the west and was miuch frequented by those who worked et the dîfferent industries in the "hollow" and there wvere several d-weiling houses from the main rond dowrn to the brick building which nowdays stands aloue. The passing away of our old citi- zen brings up those old timnes,. andi while wýe did not have as much jazz as to-day we had more of the old folk music as wvell as the best we have to-day, as wve can show by the programmies of that time. Only the uninformed endure the agony of coins. The knowing ones apply Holloway's Coin Remover and get relief.1 ..... âm J Installed to meet the exactfl heating requirements of your homrie, no mat.ter wjhat the conditilon--s may be. H-7EAT-ÙS NO MATV'TER HOWV- THE WJND BLO-,WS -.McClary's Sunshine Furnaces Sold in Bewmaniville ,by Greenaway & Elliott AUNT SAYS GAIN~ CHILD'S LOVE We said recently tisat Aunt must bave beens a teacher ia her youth~ she understands children se well. She teachies inauy a usotiher a very valuable lesson this week tbat every oue baving young children to train will do weil 1to, 'onsider carefuiiy. We bave a vaîiety of short courses, but one very urgentiy neecled Js a special short icourse for mothers. Aunt's letter la to a niece wbo bas lsad trouble for sbe says: Wbatever others may say to tbe coutrary, the maj.ority of us -dislike to feel that w? lbannot get childien to obey us, or tint these mites of, hunsanity dislike us and look uaponý us witb suspicion. 1 can quite understand how awk- ward and uncomifortable you miust have f elt when you had charge of your neighbor's childien for a few hours and they behaved so unkindly towaid you. It was unkissd to you because you feit worse than they did, so you bl'aimed the children and considered tiem horrid iittle thing-s. 1 tbink tise mistake you ma~de was to negiect the importance of under- standing that first of all it is neces- sary to win the confidence of cbild- ren s0 that they, in their smnali minds, wl be satisfied tint you men weli by tiem. This seemis aibsurd, doesn't it?' StilI we ail know that cildren of ai! ages have lu them the peculiar cau- tion -wiici is inherent iu tise humian rac e. It is g-ood to bave this eau- tion as we grow up, but we don't like to feel we inspire it with cisilci- ren. It is so iumiliating when they stand aloof, reserved and suspicious; or (mostly in thse case of boys>' are b-olsterously untraý.1table, and you bave to wheedle and coax them to obedience or tisienten tbemi. A èbild wiil quickiy obey fromi f ear or wben a reward is offemed, but we want tbem te * obey because we desime it. No one likes to tbink a cisild is afraid of ber; there, is something ugiy and repulsive in tise tiought that littie children fear us. Yet because 'children draw nwny from you and seem afraid, does net necessariiy mean tbat you are cross and unkind to them. It t%ýould be isasty to judge peisons wbo canuot get children to take to tisem. Your reni trouble is that you do uot knpw how to win the confidence of a chiid. Once that is won the rest follow,,s easily. You miust bring yourself down. to the child's level, do'wu to its under- standing, and that will break through the uncomfortable barrier vhicih seems to surrouud it ansd you. You miust firat of alt-ineet a hd on its o-wn ground; thîs is -easy te do if you are ut first' carerful not to conitrndict themn or roug-hly dictate to them. Appear to agree witb everything they sugg-est or say until vemy quick- ly they know you are eue witb them an'd not as one far above tibem. This la especialiy necessary wlth stiange childreu wbo do not know you; the sooner yo'u can aliay their suspicions that you are not an grown up enemy, but that yen are really a grown up fmiend, the quicker w\ill be your succesa.

You did ýsot put the mnatter one bit to strong. I arntihe mether of gro-wn- up girls in a big city, and 1 do so wishi that more country girls could realize bow really well off tbey arel in their own country homes, for Il may tell thep that in this city at the preseut time it is positively un- safe for a young woman to go euti alone on the streets after daîk, and 1 spend many anxious times when my girls have te go out to churcs and young folks weekly meetings. 1 know of somne very sad happenings to country girls in this clty.
