Jim Miller, who is occupying the United CRurch pulpit while Rev. Mr. Smith is on vacation, and Town- Clerk. Bert. Hutchtson are celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of their ex- pedition to the Columbia Exhibition, better known as the Chicago World's Fair, in 1803. Just how they are celebrating is not revealed. Two of the band of five Argonauts have passed to their account, a third, the Rev. Jos. Ferguson, in Alberta, so Bert and Jim have a lone téte a téte "j over the events of half-a century-ago, when the five, young men struck off from Port Perry to see the sights of the world at the Fair, There was lots to be seen but a lot of water has run under the bridge since 1893 and what was new then is commonplace now, for the world has moved on, so Bert and Jim would not have much to tell you today of what they saw. Electric lights were the old carbon lights on high poles, the incandescent was just coming in, they saw a sample, it looked like a hof hair pin in a bottle and gave about as uch light. A farmer looked at it and tried to blow it out, he nearly succeeded. There was a small adding machine that had a group around it all day. Some thought it was a trick, others-- and they were the wise ones--said "anyway it would be better to use your head". There was a type-setting machine--forerunner of the linotype that gets out the Star. An operator would tap off a line and throw out the slug, for which there was a séramble, The boys got one to bring home. Printers shook their head and said, "That will be the end of printers." There, were no automobiles -- the horseless carriage was predicted but had not arrived. There were no movies, no' talkies and of course no radio, while ig was still the synonym for the Height of impossi-| bility. What did Bert and Jim see? There was the Midway Plaisance-- the original Midway .with its Streets of Cairo where descendants of Cleo- patra danced the houchi-couchi, but compared with our bathing beauties they were a trifle overdressed. I am afraid Bert and Jim will only be able to talk of the good fellowship and happy memory that has lasted for half a century. Well, isn't that sometking ?
