An address on “Characteristics and Heritage of our Grandmothers” was given by Mrs. A. Cudmore and was most in teresting. She had a number of the grandmothers assisting her with short articles.

W Wl I Till'RSI) AY, OC'JCOBEft :grcl, H)JO BUSINESS A LITTLE steam lifts the lid of your tea-kettle. A lot of steam drives trains, machinery. Your bank deposit may be little, but it combines with millions of others to make a lot of "steam”. It helps to run the nation’s machinery of production, marketing, employment, business. It is important indeed to the country’s war financing and war-time effort. The money is yours yet it helps provide the credit necessary to move the goods and services of the nation. C, Canada’s chartered banks thus perform func tions of great usefulness. They receive the deposits of millions of Cana dians, and extend credit to individuals, governments, businessmen and marketing organizations. The small depositor is important to the banks. The "little fellow”, popularly so-called, is welcomed by any bank, as a customer. r* In war, as in peace, Canada’s Chartered Banks maintain, uninter- *1 rupted, their useful services — safeguarding depositors’ funds; facilitating the nation’s business — looking forward to peace 1^ with freedom as the only sure basis of enduring prosperity. J THE CHARTERED BANKS OF CANADA Keep Sky Harbor Airport Under Huron County Control Warden George C. Feagan Asks Residents of the County to Put Their Money on Active Service. So that every municipality in the County of Huron may share in the control of Sky Harbor, War den George C. Feagen, has issued the following statement: Soon after a landing field was established north of Saltford in the County of Huron a pageant was held to raise funds for the erection of a hangar. At that time the few citizens who had endorsed the project had no assurance that the .people of this County would sup port aviation. To the surprise of everyone, men, women and chil dren, to the estimated number of over forty thousand from all over the County thronged the open fields and roadways. Sipecial police had to be called in order to con trol traffic, Soime sixty planes took part in the pageant, coming from the United States and from every flying cl-uib in the Province of On tario. This (publicity attracted the notice of officials of Civil Aviation in Ottawa and a representation was made to the Department of Trans port of the Federal Government. The Minister assured the delegates, after he had made a personal in spection and had sent a number of experts to make a complete re port, that Sky Harbor (provided natural facilities for an air port, but that before the Government assistance could be granted the land would have to be in the name of a municipality. It was then that Huron County endorsed the project and levelled some of the runways. Shortly after the out break of the war, the Government wired our 'Council, asking them if they would be prepared to con sider Sky Harbor as a training field for Empire defence. A special meeting of Council was called and our rerply to that telegram was that the. County of Huron would purchase the field and place it at the disposal of His Majesty the King. This patriotic gesture won the admiration of the Government, and might I add. of patriotic or ganizations from coast to coast, and much publicity was given to our County by the press of Canada. At that time we had no know ledge or intimation as to what me thod the Government would use in carrying forward their operation of the field, hut assumed that it would be conducted by the Department of Aviation with their own person nel. Under the British Common wealth Air Training Plan these var ious flying fields are divided into categories and Sky Harbor was designated as an Elementary Fly ing School for the training of pilots and to ho operated by a civilian company, following a plan that has been in operation in Great Britain for three years prior to the present war. The details of this • Ian have already appeared in some of the newspapers, and further informa tion wMI be available. $35,000 in cash is to bo raised for the formation of this Company and it is out plan to maintain the control and identity of Sky Harbor writhin Huron County. There are 24 municipalities in Huron and we ! have allotted $1500 to each one ’ of them, in order to make available ! to all citizens the opportunity of owning stock in their own airport. For this reason, shares are being distributed at 10 dollars each. With ea h ten shares of preferred stock one share of common is given as a bonus. This is an opportunity for you to keep control of Sky Harbor within our own County of Huron, to subscribe to a patriotic venture in helping win the war, and to make what is considered by busi ness men a sound investment, yield ing 5 % on preferred shares and surplus distributed amongst the common shares. No County in Canada has made a more patriotic gesture in connection with avia tion than we have, and, by this token, there is no question that had it not been for oui’ interest in Sky Harbor, the Port Albert Navi gation School would never have ,'omp into existence. This is an $00- i acre tract of ground on which fa- , cilities are being erected to the extent of approximately one million and a half dollars. We will have in this County some 1,400 men for training and instruction. These young men will come from all over the Dominion and Huron welcomes them. Your individual investment need not be large, but as Warden of the County I appeal to you to supply the capital from every town, village and township, north, east and south, that Huron’s control of aviation may remain in this County for the duration of the war and as a foundation from which to build, a mighty industry in the days to. follow the final victory. “How you have changed! You used to have a ruddy eomplextion and now you’re pale. You used to be stocky and now you’re thin—I’m surprised, Mr. Gordon.” “But I’m not Mr. Gordon.” “Look! You’ve e.ven changed your name!” lumber Shingles Our Prices are the Lowest they have been for several years. If you are building it will pay you to call and get prices.
