David Allan, Clerk Holstein Ontario Mr. Aitken was born in Johuston Renfrewshire, Scotland, in 1837, and came to Ontario with his father in 1842 residing first of all about Guelph. In 1855 the family moved to Egreâ€" mont and settled on lot 27, Con. 2, which they chopped and cleared. On May 1ith, 1871, Wm. Aitken married Emma Pinder, and they builded their home on lot 29. con. 3. _ Here they continued to reside till 1916, when they retired to Holstein. Mrs Aitken was born of English parents at Guelph iu 1849 and came to Egremont in 1860. Noteworthy facts about the family bistory are that the family circle is still quite unbroken, that all the childâ€" ren when they married continued to live on the farm, and that now they reside so near one another that all attend the same church.

Happy people are like sunshine cheering everybody around them, when we meet one of these glad sou!s we find our smiles rising to match theirs and we go on our way teeling cheered and helped.. It is quite true that no one can make hberseit bappy though every one may rejoice it she will. This is a medicine to cure lifes ills. It was a sick world into which the Great Physician came and it is a sick woild be is trying still to cure. Men and women have distorted views of lite. They break under burdens resent limitations which they should meet with quiet resolutions and bear with quiet strepgth. We are coming to understand the tremendons in flaence of one mind over anotber and of the mind over the body and to see what possibilities are opznâ€" iog up through a more intelligent use of the mind. This knowledge brings with it an unescapable obligation. If it is a woman‘s duty to call in a phyican when she is ill and use every exdeavor to make herself whole, it is equally her duty to reinvigorate hber body through the use of ber mind and to be as far as pessible her own physician, and not only is it a person ‘s duty to care themselves it is also a duty to reinvigorate society and disâ€" sipate the fogs of the world by her serenity, cheerfuiness and courage. It the facts of life werea great deal blacker than taey are and haman conditions a great deal barder, it would still be our duty to infuse into the air of the times, courage, hops and cheerfalness. In this time when so many vital problems are to be solved every one ought to carry a brave spirit and make a generous contribution of good cbeer to the fund of common feeling. There is the familiar story of two childrer who described the same garden in such an opposite fashion. One said it was a borrid garden tor every rose had a thorn. and the other said it was a beautiful garden there was pot a tl}orn in it without a rose : so is it in life. Then we know how worry effects the whole system. In these days of harry and bustle the lack of repose among os, especially women, is most marked. There is such a thing as ove being too tired to eat, being to neat and nise to take comftort in every day life and this is anything but cheerâ€" tal. Bat then there is such a thing as being so disorderly and negligeut that comtort and cheer are impossible It the house mother cannot rest while there is a finger mark on the paint or a spot on the window panes, she mey make a neat room but hersplint will keep is from beiog «cheerlal. It she has to continually care for the ‘"look ot things‘‘ ber failure will be equally sure. A bird singing in the window, plarts blooming and grow ing, these givye life and brightnoess.

It has been proven by experiments and extensive private feeding trials that the sunflower vields well, the silage is palatable, and is at least equal, if not superior, pound for prunc, to corn silage.
