THIS YEAR
WE ThfIRTY4)NE.
Back In Hamilton, on February
1920, a few enthusiastic young amen,
led by one Hal Rogers, met in a
small Chinese cafe. The meeting was
to be the formation of the first Kins-
men Club in Canada.
That Meeting is now history in the
annals of .KitISMenSbiP, Yet, from
That gathering,. from that small but
important meeting, came the seed that
was to grow and spread throughout
our great Dominion, That February
20th, 1920, was to be the functional
point to form what. has now come to
be known as the Association of Kins
men Clubs.
Hal Rogers' sincerity and his ideals,
were to form the basis for the fellow-
ship in Kinsmenship, which Kinsmen
Clubs across Canada enjoy today, The
ideals developed from that 1920 meet-
ing, were to mold Kinsmen into a
team, to help strive towards a better
tomorrow, by assisting others in our
community in a way that would be
sure to embrace the greatest num-
bers,
We, on this 31st Anniversary of the
founding of the Association of Kins-
men Clubs, pause to give a toast to
its founder, Hal Rogers—A toast for
inspiration • . , his ideals that we're
sure must be instilled in the hearts of
Kinsmen across Canada to do good
for others. A toast for the benefits
each Kinsman derives from the assoc-
iation within his club. A toast,- a sin-
cere toast, for the warmness and sin-
cerity in a glad handclasp between
fellow Kinsmen, which we're sure is
so often unknown between common
neighbours.
To Kinsmen everywhere , . to
Kinsmen and their aims . . to that
February 20th, 1920, we say . . .
Happy 31st Birthday, mid thanks.
Thanks for fellowship . . . thanks for
the opportunity to make way for a
better tomorrow!

It was also his optnion that this area
will be expanding considerably in the
clear future and the rail service will be
needed. The opening of the St. Laws
roce Seaway would mean more Moves
meat of goods in Ontario, for which
rail facilities are necessary, The tour-
ist business and the resultant of
American dollars is another important
consideration,
David Savage of Listowcl, stated
that he did ;not believe that trucks
could handle the volume of business
which is to' be done in this area, Par-
ticularly since, all the towns on- the
two lines are expanding with the trend
toward decentralisation of industry.
Mayor Lloyd Smith of Snuthamp.-
ton, spoke of the loss of families to
his town when train crews would no
longer be required. He said that the
ratepayers of Southampton had held a
meeting in the same connection and
were strongly opposed to the removal
of the trains,
Mayor Oscar Nickel of Listowel,
said his town was definitely opposed.
Mark Rogers of Palmerston, ment-
ioned the safety factor, and the fact
that on the railway lines a plow can
be sent out ahead of any train to
make sure the line is clear. Buses, on
the other hand, are not sure of travel-
ling over freshly-plowed roads.
Harry Chapman, of the Kincardine
Chamber of Commerce, spoke of
the industrial conference to be held
shwas; at Owen Sound, and voiced
the thought that it would be very poor
publicity for this area in its search for
nets industries to be forced to admit
that we are not served by complete
rail transport.
One of the speakers from Palmer-
ston added sonic interesting points
to the discusion when he stated that
he had always understood that the
mail contract alone paid a large per-
centage of operating cost on the two
lines in. question. Also, the engines
which are used on the regular runs to
Kincardine and Southampton are em-
ployed for some time in. the yards af-
ter they come in, It was his opinion
that the bus and truck service Wilhelm
would be substituted would never
properly take the place of the trains,
Reeve J. C. MeNab, of Lucknow,
said that the railway representatives
had failedl to give any definite figures
as to the loss which is currently suf-
fered on the two lines and said he
doubted the economy of the proposed
move.
William Mitchell, Kincardine, s7oic-
ed the opinion that these two lines
are possibly to be used as the basis
of an experiment to determine the re-
stilts of a permanent change-over to
buses,
The motion to form a .committee of
the mayors and reeves was sponsored
by William Mitchell of Kincardine
and Oscar Nickel of Listowel,

The Voice of Temperance
The menace of -drunk driving in-
creases each year — while motor car
registrations increased by 14 per cent,
in 1950, convictions for drunk driving
went up by 40 per cent. The stricter
law enforcement and time heavier pen-
alties failed to mateli the menace of
drunk driving . It should be obvious
that the policy of more and more out-
lets, with more and more liquor con-
slimed is contributing to the drunk
driving menace, As the Toronto Star
puts it "The Ontario Government's
free and easy attitude on liquor sales
has been contributing to the accident
toll due to alcohol". Surely no Huron:
County citizen, in his right senses,
Would propose to -exchange the re-
strictive measures of the Canada Tem-
perance Act for the free and, eas y
sales policy of the Ontario T.Squor
Control Act, with its increasing drunk
driving hazards. Advt,
