Premier Appeals to You From personal knowledge, gained during visits to Europe, Premier George Drew knows the horrors' of life overseas today; therefore, he hastened to issue an appeal to the people of Ontario to support the National Clothing Collection. These are his words: “Never during the war years was the need for clothing more urgent than it is today in those lands which have been devastated by war. The reports which come to us from Europe and Asia give us a picture of suffering on a scale without par allel in the history of the world. Part of this is the result of the dis placement of so .many millions of people, and an even greater part is the result of the destruction of -pro ducing machinery and the disloca tion of transport services. Until production and transportation can be organized in these countries, millions of people must look to those of us who have been more fortunate for even the barest neces sities if human survival," “If on© suit of clothes were given for every man, woman and child in Canada, twelve million people else where in the world would be for- over grateful -for this kindness from some unknown friend. The more that we can give, the sooner will be diminished the agony and suffer ing of innocent people who have before them a long, hard road/* It is estimated that 130 million people including 25 million child* fen will face death from cold and sickness because of exposure, next winter in Europe as an aftermath of World War II, unless the world’s more fortunate populations, answer their appeal. Ontario’s quota has been set at six million pounds, if this quota is to ,be achieved, eyery man, woman and child must donate at least 1}6 pounds of clothing. What is Needed All kinds of used, serviceable clothing are required; these include suits, overcoats, uniform#, work clothes for men and boys, infant’s clothes of all types, coats, dresses, aprons and smopks for girls and women, shoes in pairs (tied secure ly with string), caps, felt hats, knitted headwear, gloves, woOllen socks, underclothing, piece goods, blankets, sheets and linen, draper ies and remnants. All washable garments and goods should be washed, Other garments need not be dry-cleaned. Clothes without buttons are acceptable, as supplies of buttons are moving into lands where the clothing will be ■worn. Items which cannot be baled, such as straw hats, feather beds, pillows, etc., should not be given. Letters of good cheer may ,be at tached to contributions. Look Out for Matches This warning is of paramount importance, “We cannot stress too strongly that matches or anything else of any inflammable nature must be removed from the pockets of coats, trousers and other garments."

The Clandebpve of 1946 pres ents quite a contrast to the village of earlier times, if some of the ac counts and traditions still extant in the vicinity are to ‘be believed. Although now consisting mainly of tree-sheltered dwellings, there stijl remain some old and extens ive 'buildings that are links with the once-thriving community, whose business and industrial ventures were patronized far and wide, and which are still recalled with pleas ure by the older residents who re member the place in its heyday, The beginning of Clandeboye can be traced back to May, 1844, which time marked the arrival of Patrick Flanagan, its founder, a native of the Emerald Isle (Mayo County), whose career,, especially the early part of it, was eventful to say the least. ■Mr, Flanagan built a tavern on the London-Goderich road, close to the Biddulnh-McGillivray Township line, and soon opened a store in connection with it, This was the nucleus of Clandeboye settlement which it soon became gan’s Corners, ■Prominent in and other affairs, Patrick Flana gan died in 18,64, aged 63 years. He was honored by cession more than length. His portrait old county atlas. John Flanagan, founder, followed footsteps, carrying and store, for years _ ____ actively engaged in community en terprises. ‘Many families of Irish origin settled in the vicinity and by 1857 Flanagan's Corners had become known as the Village of Ireland (or Irishtown). The first record of the Village of Ireland that the writer could locate was dated nearly 90 years ago. At that time there was claim ed to be a neighborhood popula tion of about 3 00' and the names of 30 or more businessmen are listed. Among them are three hotel keeoers. three shoemakers, four carpenters, two wagon makers and two tailors. Also the place boasted three general stores, three blacksmith shops, a cabinet making establish ment and a shoo used as a saddlery and harness manufactory. The village even had a justice of the peace, the position being held by James Barber, while George Carter served as clerk of the Divis ion Court. The post office was kept by Dahiej Shoff. This post office was known as McGillivray, the same name as -that of the neighboring township. The appellation of McGillivray seems to have been applied to the village for a number of years after original. name of Flanagan’s ners had fallen into disuse. We' might also state that hamlet, of Mack’s Corners, several miles to the westward eventually became 'known as West McGillivray and remains as such until the pres ent time. Those who had promoted the growth of Clandeboye with enthus iasm were disappointed and dis illusioned when the Grand Trunk Railway (built in 1858) missed the village by a couple of miles. This caused the removal- of a number of the businessmen to points along the new railroad. Henceforth Clandeboye declined. The transfer of Biddulph and McGillivray Townships from Huron County to Middlesex County was arranged in 1865, Another account which has come to’ light is dated nearly 80 years ago and lists a population of ap proximately 250, with 22 people in business. By this time the names of Ireland and Irishtown were in use, There were two churches, the Anglican, in charge of Rev, T. E. Sanders, and the Wesleyan 'Metho dist, with Rev, Mr. Land as minis ter, William Forman was in charge of the community school, a sub stantial brick edifice. Fraternity Division, No, 311. Sons of Temperance, met every Monday evening in their own hall. Victoria Lodge, No. 5, American Order of Good Templars, met every Thursday evening. By this time Clandeboye had its Own physician, Dr. James Sutton, and among the business places are mentioned a steam flouring mill, a millinery shop, a furrier’s es tablishment. (A plasterer is listed among the tradesmen.- . .The building of the Huron and Bruce Railway Clandeboye helped restore its former prosperity. The Clandeboye was originally only in connection with the rail road station, but was eventually adopted by the whole community. It was in general use before 1878, when the population was estimated at around A Still nearly 6 0 merchants, lumber dealer weaver the business personnel of the com- ! munity. •Clandeboye appears to have de clined considerably since the turn of the century, although the build ing of No. 4 highway has given it some impetus. Apparently, at its best, it never materialized the plans of the original promoters as there are still to be seen grass-grown lanes around the outskirts of the village which had once been laid j out as streets, To Make Chicks Grow and Hens Lay Co-Op Feeds are the Ones that Pay The cattle arid cows are fceding on one of nature’s great: conditioners—good green grass—but don’t forget they still need attention.
