Destructive Sleet Storm Paralyzes. Goderich
Astro oger s re ictions FulfilIed
ES The Signal goes to press Western Ontario is emerging from the grip of one of the worst sleet storms
in the history. of tb.e,country._ Industry_has been_p4ralyzed by the, failure of bydro power, many of the
important transmission lines in Western Ontario being out of commission, while enormous damage has beer
done to the telegraph and telephone systems by the heavy ice coating -which formed- on the wires
as the rain fell. '
The storm commenced On Tuesday night and continued almost incessantly for twenty-four hours. On
Wednesday morning Goderich citizens learned of the serious nature of the storm by the failure of hydro
power and by the severance of both telephone and telegraphic means of communication.
Like all other industries which are* users of hydro the Goderich newspapers suffer -v. -o_ small in
convenience, for depending as they are on electricity to operate their typesetting machines they had to face
the awkward situation :�-f setting a large portion of the type for this week's issue by the old-fashioned method of hand corripsition: The
Signal was particularly unfortunate in that its type -setting machine required the services of a "doctor" from Toronto on Monday and thus
the machine was available for less than twelve hours' work this week.
Both newspapers are jointly indebted to Mr. Robert Wilson, the local Massey -Harris agent, for the loan of a _g_gsoline engine tc
supply power for the newspaper press while The Signal heartily appreciates the co-operation of its contemperary, The Star, in giving
the use of the press_to_which this engine had been attached.
While no definite information is available as to when relief may be expected there are reasons for hoping that the hydro servict
will be-resumeti-eitAy-next week. The Signalasksfor the kind indulgence of its readers and patrons while the management is doing it
utmost to cope with such unfavorable and unprecedented conditions.

it is proposed to arrange for the dis-
tribution of relief from Canada
through this body.
The Citizen's of Canada are to be
asked immediately to contribute to
this work either in money or kind
and for thio purpose it is necessary
to secure the co-operation of the
more prominent citizens in the var-
ious -cities and towns. I have learn-
ed of the various services that ygo
perfortiecT in Cnderich on behalf ol
the Canadian Patriotic Fund and we
should consider ourselves very for-
tunate if you would co-operate in the
formation of a committee that could
appeal to the citizens of your town
for sullacriptions. Our immediate
need is money with which to pig -
chase food stuffs in Canada. Pro- .
be Fraughtbut certain arrangetnents
for its reception Vlust first he made.
A circular, descriptive of the need
and methods whereby it ie pro 'led
to meet it, is being prepared ansi will
be scut to you in due course. In the
meantime we should be very glad to
learn that you are willing to co -op -
prate with UR and to endeavor to se-
cure also the sympathy and active
support of other prominent eitizene.
I am addressing a similar letter to
this to Mr. James Mitchell and Mr.
C. A. Nairn, of your town, and would
suggest that you communicate with
them.
