Delivers last bottle of milk After 46 years of service, Hamilton Dairy at Grand Bend has been sold and Alec Hamilton has delivered his last quart of milk. Although the business changed hands on April 1 of this year, few Grand Benders knew the ocal dairy was owned by Paul Johnson of Mary-belle Dairies Ltd., Strathroy. Reason was that Alec and his son, Brad, remained on the milk route all summer long to help the new owner become acquainted with Grand Bend customers. Now after the summer rush, Alec Hamilton is finally able to sleep a little later in the mornings. Retirement may even mean a trip — possibly next summer — for Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton. Harry Hamilton Sr. brought bottled milk to. Grand Bend in 1922 when Alec was 12 years old. When Alec was 13, his father took sick and from that time on, Alec and his brothers managed the dairy business, The Hamilton family kept their own dairy herd and sold raw milk until about 1938 when the cattle were sold and the milk was purchased from Silverwood's Dairies. Alec has operated the business for the last 20 years on his own. His helpers were his wife and his two sons, Barry, now a Russian-English translator living in Ottawa, and Brad, still at home, Alec can remember when he delivered 20 quarts of milk in an open light wagon. That seemed a far cry from the 2,000 quarts of milk he has delivered in one morning since Grand Bend The engine will be suitable for twin-engined civilian or military planes built to carry eight to twelve passengers at speeds of between 400 and 500 miles per hour. It is expected to sell for between $50,000 and $75,000 and has a thrust of 2,200 pounds. The engine itself is 50 inches long, 271/2 inches in diameter and weighs 480 pounds. Only Monday of this week, Cessna Aircraft of Wichita, ' Kansas placed an order valued at more than $10,000,000 for the Pratt and Whitney Aircraft T15D turbofan engines. The new engine has been under development at United Aircraft of Canada since 1966 and is currently undergoing flight tests following more than 400 hours of test bed running of the prototype with Doug Jermyn one of the men in charge. Justice official views facilities' Future Exeter court sittings may soon be held in the Ladies Auxiliary room at the R. E. Pooley branch Legion hall. Deputy-Reeve Mery Cudmore reported to council this week that an official from the department of justice had inspected the room and Was happy with the facilities. Rental is $20 per court sitting. The new facilities were sought after Crown Attorney W. G. Cochrane recently reiterated previous reports that the town hall was no longer suitable. The council chamber is still small and the room upstairs too large and has inadequate acoustics for court sessions. became a popular summer resort, It was a seven-day a week job for a number of years and every summer, too, including this past summer. For the past few years, though, winter schedules in Grand Bend have been cut to provide a four-day a week service to milk customers. For the winter at least, the Hamiltons will likely enjoy their leisure. A Florida vacation doesn't seem quite as appealing to them as a tour of Canada next summer.
