NAME ON FURNITURE
BRINGS A LETTER
George Haller Received Letter After
His Name Found on Slats of Settee
A settee in use in the LaVerne
Beauty Shoppe at Pott Hammond, B>
was built in the Walker & Clegg
pliant here about 30 years ago. How
do we know? Well, here is the story.
George Haller worked in the factory
at that time and he’ made it a’ habit
to write his name on the slats of the
furniture that he worked on. This set
tee which we are talking about, was
supposed to have been an English im
portation, according to the letter Mr.
Haller received and the lady who op
erated the beauty shoppe was dubious
and when it needed repair she saw the
name of George Haller, Wingham,
Ont., oft it, so she wrote to get the
low-down on this Queen Ann model,
George, of course, gave her the neces
sary information.
In the letter Miss Nickoils says that
if the letter found George alive she is
sure he would be a grandfather, and
she was quite right in her prediction.
The citizens of Wingham attended
in large numbers the Universal Week

The January meeting of the local
branch of the W.C.T.U. was held at
the home of Mrs, A. Cosens, Thurs
day afternoon, opening with the hymn
“There comes to my heart one sweet
strain" and prayer by Mrs, A. E.
Lloyd. The theme of the Bible read
ing was “Peace” and was taken by
Mrs. E. M. Loney. , Each member
brought
for the
stressed
greatest
with a beautiful solo “Just For To-
Day.”
Some of the reasons given’ ‘why I
should join the W.C.T.U.” were “Be
cause the W.C.T.U. gives every wo
man in Canada a chance to help in the
work of making our country a land
of happy homes”; “because the W.C.
T.U. invites women, of all creeds in a
social welfare work which is common
to all”; “because the‘"W.C.T.U. pro
motes alcohol, education so that all
people may know what alcohol is and
what it does.” The president conduct
ed the reading of the clip sheet. Don
na Walker and Joan Edgar rendered
a piano duet which was enjoyed by
all.
lit was decided to send a resolution
to the Hon. James G. Gardiner, Min
ister of National Services, Ottawa, in
support of the request of the Canad
ian Temperance Federation for res
triction ..of the sale of intoxicants at
the present time.
Prizes were presented to the follow
ing boys and girls who wrote temper
ance examinations in October: George
Phippen, Norman Pocock, Milton
Loney, Annie Stapleton, Irene Gloush-
er, Edith Giousher, Ramona Dennis,
Violet Bowman, Ester Bowman. The
meeting closed with a season of pray
er and the National Anthem.
In the icy water of the Maitland
River, about noon hour Tuesday, little
5-year-old Andy Clark, son of Mr, and
Mrs, Joe Clark, was drowned. The ac
cident happened about 100 yards
downstream from the C,N;R, bridge.
The little fellow had been enjoying
himself riding to and from the station
to Howson’s mill with Bob Simmons
who was drawing wheat. About eleven
o’clock he left from abound the mill
for home, but apparently was attract
ed to the river. When He did not show
up at dinner hour at home his father
went looking fox’ him. He traced his
marks on the ice from the mill across
the river, under the C.N.R. bridge,
downstream for a piece and then back
Upstream to a point about 100 yards
below the bridge where a hole was in
the thin ice close to the open water.
Mr. Clark found .the lad’s rubber boot
on the river bottom at this point about
30 feet from short.
An alarm was sounded and the fire
brigade, aided by many citizens, us
ing axes and saws, also a boat, made
a thorough examination of the river
for a considerable distance down
stream. Ice was cut away and a large
area of the river freed but no trace
of the lad was found. The ice above
Ipwer dam was chopped away and a
gaurd placed there in case the current
carried the body that far.
At the time of going to press we
regret to state that the body has not
yet been recovered.
On behalf of the citizens of this
community we extend to Mr. and Mrs.
Clark sincere sympathy. They have
one other child, two-year-old Billy.

Two chief factors prompted this
move. The first of these was to obtain
a greatly increased number of potent

other was to eliminate the necessity of
prospective recruits travelling long
distances to an R.C.A.F, Recruiting

Gearing of the Air Training Centres
