He said that getting new industry was,ah right, but how about support­ ing some of the industry we already have, We-said we thought there would be a rather limited •field in Wingham for doors, gloves, furniture, toilet seats and stoves, although we were in accord with the principle that Wingham people should ham products as much as “How about bread?” he ,we said “How about it?” He then proceeded to about bread. The town has a couple of bake shops, both of which turn out a pretty good product, however you look at it. Maybe they’re not as big as the factories, but they provide employment for several people, all liv­ ing in Wingham, and all spending a good part, at least, of the money they earn here , right in town, baking isn’t a major industry Wingham, but combined with a lot of other smaller businesses, it helps to make the town what it is. And yet, this citizen went on to say, the bakery business is competing with a half a dozen different kinds of bread, imported from different places all over the map. Most of it comes from the cities but. some of it even comes from neighboring towns. All the Wingham money spent on out­ side bread goes out of town, never to return, while our oyvn bake shops, who put out what a lot of people consider to be a vastly superior product, have to scratch around for business. “It doesn’t make sense”, he said, and we had to admit he was‘right. 0-0-0 Maybe in to Elmer Wilkinson’s Wallpaper Shop is. undergoing a facerlifting these days and when the work is finished there will be quite a noticeable difference around the placfe. x The offices at the far end of the shop have been torn out and a sort of mezzanime floor put in, extending eight or ten feet qut from the back wall and about seven feet above the floor, A* combined office andostore room will be situated here.

Rev. George preside4 over tional meeting United Church of last week, when all reports showed a successful year. The meeting opened "with a short worship service. Miss W. D. Ruther­ ford gave the report of the secretary­ treasurer, showing a balance on hand of over $400. Mrs. W. I. Miller gave the Sunday School report and Mrs, W. A. Miller, the treasurer, -that of the - missionary and maintenance fund. She reported that $279,65 had been sent to the treasurer, an increase of $17.65 over last year. Mrs. L, Woods, the secretary, and Mrs. Frank McQuillin, the treasurer, reported a progressive year in the W.M.S., the latter stating that $182 had been forwarded to the Presby- terial treasurer, exceeding the alloca­ tion by over $60. A Life Membership Certificate had been presented to Mrs. W. A. Miller and $20 had been sent for the building fund of the new training school in Toronto. Mrs. Gordon MacPherson, in pre­ senting the report of the W.A., show­ ed that much, work had been done in the manse and the church and re­ ported a balance on hand of $123.21. A report from the newly-organized Y.P.U. showed a balance of $15.00. The retiring stewards, G. McRoberts, J. Cameron, G. MacPherson and G. Stuart, were re-elected as were also the auditors, Murray Taylor and Allan Miller, the secretary-treasurer, Miss Mary C. Rutherford, and er of the M & M Miller. Votes of thanks Rev.

The television picture is brighten­ ing considerably in these parts, ac­ cording to Joe McGill. More stations are on the air and the reception is getting better all the time. Last winter it was a different story. Reception during the months of Jan­ uary and February was practically nil as far as the picture was concern­ ed, and at times even the music was not coming in. This winter, in spite of the fact that the season isn’t a good one generally for TV, reception has been reasonably good, with about four stations coming in fairly regu­ larly. Prospects for the near future look promising, too. The Kitchener station will be sending out a test pattern around the middle of this month, and expects to be on the air with pro­ grams by the. end of February. Ac­ cording to those who should know, the new station should come in to Wingham without any trouble at all. The“ transmitting towers will be perched up on the high hill outside of Baden and should give pretty fair coverage all over the district. ’ , Power of the new station won't be as high as that"'of London TV, but the experts argue that the fact that Baden is closer to Wingham, plus the higher altitude should mean better reception here. • The new TV station in Hamilton is also scheduled to open up soon, and while Hamilton is quite a long way from Wingham, TV fans are hoping that they might be able to bring it in without too much trouble. The tower for the Hamilton station will be situated on the Hamilton mountain which might mean something, in spite of the distance from here to there. Fund, the treasur- Mrs. W.

In fear, the little frog swam home. “Why are you so frightened?” asked his mother. “An enormous creature with four legs came to our pool this morning,” replied the little frog. “Enormous, was he? Was he as big as this?” asked the mother Fr’og, puffing herself out to look ag big as possible. “Oh! yes, much bigger,” was the answer. The mother Frog puffed herself out still more. “Was he as big as this?” said she. “Oh! Yes, yes, mother, MUCH bigger,” said the little frog. And yet again she puffed herself out. “As big as . . .?” she began—but then she burst.
