a A greater portion of Canada's
y citizens are transients; that /s,
. 'steadily -employed persons whose
job covers considerable territory.
f , It is these persons who find
Canada roiled the 3,100th mo
bile home off their Hensall pro-
duction line recentri, they ,•had
Produced the equivalent of a
bustling town supporting 8,000
persons, with some 2,500 modern
dwellings and 500 various places
of business.
I Fantastic? Yes, but perfectly
true, if these 3,000 mobile units,
which would include mobile
homes, mobile churches, schools,
libraries, beauty parlors and
jails, fa name but a few, could
be gathered in an up-to-clate
trailer park they would rapidly
establish theirowners as citizens
of one of the most unique but
prosperous communities ever
created in the short space of
three years.
We know, for Instance, that the
average income of these families
who live on wheels — almost
$4,000 — exceeds that of their
land -bound cousin. The average
holds good for all 50,000- Canad-
ians who live in mobile homes,
Many earn much more.
That means our theoretical
town would have a combined
purchasing power of about nine
million, five hundred thousand
dollars, Almost $5 million of this
would be spent yearly for food
and sundries, What better ineen-
tive for merchants to locate a
Monger shopping centre?
To the municipality fortunate
enough to possess this thriving
community would fall a nominal
sum of at least $300,000 , in li-
cense fees, and in payment of
municipal services at present
rates, This, of course, would be
dwarfed by the benefits of In-
dustrialism and expansion to
which the mobile home town is
proverbially hitched.
Offering a working population
of 2,500 men with a singular
range of knowledge and skills,
the town would become a mecca
for manufacturers of ' equally
amazing variety, richly reward-
ing the surrounding counties.,
in a mineral -endowed area
here is the know-how to blast
deep into the earth, and recover
buried riches, igniting explosive
expansion • of today's mining
community. 4
But the powerful talisman that
is the mobile home community
seldom stays. It can bring the
smooth black, ribbon 'Of • super–
highway, pulsing • with life and
commerce. Or it can carry with
it high tension wires with the
spark sought by new industry,

The 11,638th Visitor of 1957 reg-
istered Monday, reports Cura-
tor J. H. Neill, and he fully ex-
pects that -the 12,000 mark will be
reached during '8eptember.
Chances are eXcellent that to
tal 1957 attendance will outstrip
the previous record year by at
least 1,000 visitors,
Meanwhile, more exhibits are
arriving all the time. Just a few
days ago, Mr. Neill secured an
old town bus, which he states is
the exact type used in Goderich
around 60 years ago This bus,
drawn by two horses: carried
travellers between the railway
stations and the hotels, and also
•served as a taxi to take people
to their homes.
Mr. Neill reports with pleasure
• thaChe now has a reasonably
complete line -pp of threshing ma-
chine engines. There are four
types now at the. museum. They
illustrate the various stages of
• development of the steam en-
gines used for farm threshing
power.
The smallest engine is a 12 hp
job, and the largest is rated at
20 lip. The 20 hpmodel, which
has just been Paintea, looks as
good as new. Though there are
still a few steam engines used
to run threshing machines, they
are seldom seen around this
part Of the country.
The fourth steam engine, which
makes the museum's display rea-
sonably complete, arrived last
Thursday. It was secured near
Belleville.
Another recent addition to the
museum's collection, is a 22 hp
portable gasoline engine used
for threshing purposes in Huron
County. This machine was le-
cated near Blyth and secured
for the museum.
The engine was drawn by har-
ses and was one of the first ga-
soline 'engines large enough to
drive a threshing separator,
