LL.D.. 1833-1004, I Slallesmm. born in Toronto. and educated It Victoria College. Co- burg. This remarkable man was the son of I poor farmer and be- no life as a farmer iiirilselr. At an early age Aikins showed great promise of becoming an outstand- ing man, and It 21 he was elected to represent his native country in the legislature. At the formation of the Mac- Donald Government he entered the Cabinet as Secretary of State and Registrar General, and held these offices until i873. Aiklns was the author of the Public Land: Act. He also organized the Dominion Land Bureau, which is now I branch of the Department of the Interior. When the party to which he belonged was returned to pow- er in 1378, Mr. Aikins was again appointed Secretary of State, but he exchanged the office for that.- of Minister of Inland Revenue in 1880. Two years later he resigned from the Cabinet and was appoint- ed Lieutenant Governor of the Province of Manitoba, one the ex- piration of his term of office he was called to the Senate. 0 0 0 That doughiy old warrior Wil- liam Lyon MacKenzie, was born in Scotland, March l2. i795. His father died before William was a month old, leaving the family in dire poverty. in l820 young MacKenzie head- ed for Canada. where he soon found his way into the business world, first at York (Toronto), and later at Queenston. Like most of his countrymen, Maclienzle cast about for a means to supplement his earnings. This was achieved by the launching the Colonial Ad- vocate. in which the Tories were violently attacked. That there was much good horse sense in these attacks goes with out saying. as mus: of the changrs lic recom- mended have since bcen adopted. bill the bitterness of his attacks aroused great opposition among the extreme Conservatives then headed by Sir John Robinson. In 1328 MacKcn7.ie was elected member of the House of Commons for York. but he was expelled on the technical glound that he had published accounts of the pro- ceedings of the House without per- mission. But this did not prevent him from being elected five times and five times expelled. till tho Government refused to issue I writ and York was minus one of its representatives. His visit to the Mother Coun- try in 1832 resulted in many im- portant reforms for Canada. Upon his return to Canada, two years later. he became Mayor of Toronto. Fo one year he served in parlia- m nt. but two years later the Tories won a brilliant victory and MacKenzle together with most of the other reformers went down to defeat. The bitterness which followed ;their defeat was one of the chief lcauses of the revolt in 1837. Mac- Kenzie gathered about him a mob and tried to set up a provisional government. but the attempt and- ed in failure and he was forced to flee to the United States for sanc- "III-nut I want no - 4 C I Ililrety boy on I ha! any and: I garden in the link yard. anything can hep- ld Neil Walsh.

Kenzie returned to this country and was again elected to parlia- ment, however, he refused all 'of- fers of government positions. In 1358 he had to resign his seat be- cause of ill health. Three years later he passed away. It has been truly said of William Lyon Mac- Knzie that he was an.agitator. and tended to exaggeration and misre- presentation.

A matter-of-fact solution seems to be less realistic than a peculiar lead. a hunch, or an intuition. Higher- ups or others in influential places may precipitate a crisis yet be of scnrrt help in solving riddles. For the Birthday Those whose birthday iv. is. may find themselves deep in the rolls of some irregular or intriguing set of circumstances from which it may be difficult to work out, unless by the adoption of clever strategies. or by inner guidance, hunch of intui- tion, where the emotions and feel.- ings dictate ii curious course oi action. superiors or otho-ls sup- posed to possess more realistic in- sight into puzzling factors may not be of much aid in a predicament or crisis. Inner forces may work fav- orably. A child born on this day mav possess some strange or unusual vision. insight or guidance. which may be called on in critical or un- realistic situations.

"So I cured you. didnit I?” re- plied the doctor. "cured me? Cured me?" echoed the old man. "Just look at me I'm sneezing again." ' FARMYARD FRIENDS DESIGN l N0.

An added glow against the eastern Iky, to which even our eyes involuntarily turned as we made our way from the wee house to this one mo- ments ago, proclaimed the tidings that once more the Fair is into it's magical swing. Our task is an easy one Is duties go - only-to see thatvall in well with our small ones and to be present in the event of any awaklrig. it is usual in our combined stewardship for James to stretch his'lenglb be- side granddaughter in her bed, while in another we assume the care of the laddie in his cot. Any stirring gives rise to a concerned and muted: "Ellen, have you gone and fallen asleep"' But presently even this is dissolved in the deep and tranquil peace which by night envelopes this resting farmstead. U 0 O The return of Exhibition Week - call it by what name you will! - always returns reminiscences to those of us who have known it "forever." Not that James in childhood located nearer than we to the scene of it has not the edge on us in attendance. but for many years now, we two have known the joys and concerns 0'. it to- gether. At supper with grand- daugh-ter an attentive lis-icner our conversation turned to this. James is one who while giving due merit to the advances and improvements intervening years have brought to farming and farm-folks. still lets his mind return a bit wistfully at times to those days of the long ago.

James lingered over the subject It sup- per, "the long string of teams we would join 'as we neared the" city -at Exhibition time in the long ago? Do you remember . . . from every road?" It was easy to re- construct the scene from the past. The sun of the fresh day, new and mellow would be beaming it's blessing on -the way ahead. Dust?
