Local Gunuers.at Petawawa
For Summer,Training Stint
The "red flag" waves daily over
the Petawawa Army base 112 miles
northwest of Ottawa.
If it didn't, a number of well mean-
ing but careless people might lose life
or limb and the blame would fall on
the sun-burned shoulders of Reserve
Army Winners now undergoing a
week-long period of intensive training
of the camp's seemingly endless artil-
lery ranges,
The "red flag" plays an important
part in their training. Petawawa's ar-
tillery ranges embrace hundreds of
acres of some of the best fishing and
berry-picking grounds in the area.
The flags, flying at all firing points,
warn strangers and troops alike that
live firing is, or will be, in progress
throughout the day and night.
From Wingham, Sarnia, Hamilton,
Guelph, St. Catharines, Simcoe and
London, Ont., seven artillery regi-
tice on the ranges.
Five units, including the 8th Field
Regiment from Hamilton; 11th Field
Regiment, Guelph; 31st, Field Regi-
ment, Sarnia; 44th Field Regiment, St.
Catharines; and 21st, Anti-Tank Regi-
ment from Wingham, Walkerton,
Goderich and Listowel, Ont., are fir-
ing 25-pounder guns. On arrival at
camp they drew 1,500 rounds of high
explosive, 25-pounder ammunition
which will be sent screaming over the
the shell-torn ranges before the units
break camp Saturday.
The two other units, the 7th Medium
Regiment from London, and the 25th
Medium Regiment from Simcoe, Ont.,
are equipped with heavier 5.5 guns and
have been allotted 500 roends of am-
munition.
Commander of the Reserve Army
gunners at camp is Brig. P. A. S.
Todd, of Hamilton. The four field
ments have been concentrated at Pe- artillery units and anti-tank regiment
tawawa this week for live firing prac- are training as divisional artillery for
Hello Homemakers! Perhaps the
most interesting of the women's acti-
vities at the Canadian National Ex-
hibition will be in the West Annex of
the Coliseum. One attraction on the
first floor will be the Dream Home
which is surrounded by manufactur-
ers' displays.
Then, too, visit the new Kitchen
Theatre, where there will be one thing
after another, all day long. The pro-
gram, in this big auditorium, will in-
clude fashion shows, cooking and
equipment demonstrations and hos-
tess arrangements which will be con-
ducted by leading experts and home
economists, In fact yours truly will
have the chance to say hello to you
on September 9th.
Now, this is "scoop" news for those
who attend C. N. E. on Press Day,
Kitchen Exhibit in the Hydro Build-
September 4! At the Old and New
Mg—just north of the fountain you
will see and hear Mrs. Elsa Jenkins.
No doubt you know that Elsa Jenkins
has been, the efficient'manager of the

the 1st, infantry Division and the two
medium regiments have been attached
for the duration of training at camp,
Guns and ammunition are supplied
from an Active Force vehiple pool and
ammunition dump at the camp.
Very little time is wasted on parade
square work or in lecture rooms, In-
stead, all units under their command-
ing officers are carrying out intensive
field mangeuvres when not actually
firing.
Firing got under way at dawn on
Wednesday with almost all units turn-
ing in some excellent shooting. Lunch
was eaten in the field in scant shade
between red-hot guns and neatly
stacked piles of ammunition.
But the highlight of the week's
training was the Divisional Artillery
exercise carried out Thursday and
Friday. All units took to the field early
Thursday morning and remained "in
action" until late Friday. Officers and
men will eat and sleep outdoors
throughout the exercise. They will be
firing in support of the 7th Infantry
Brigade from Ottawa and Cornwall,
Ont,, another Reserve Army formation
in camp this week.

WINGHA1I MEN
AT HARRISTON RALLY
Gordon Graydon, M.P. for Peel, was
guest speaker at a Progressive-Con-
servative rally held in Harriston town
hall on Friday night, Mr, Graydon
predicted that victory would come to
the Conservative party "on the basis of
three good reasons—taxation, clearing
of waste and extravagance, and hold-
ing the line for agriculture".
Present at the rally from Wingham
were John Hanna, M.L.A., who ad-
dressed the meeting, and Reeve R. E,
McKinney, who thanked the guest
speaker. Other speakers were Reeve
J. C. Dale, of Harriston, who brought
greetings on behalf of the citizens of
the town; John Root, Orton, M.P.
for South Wellington; Marvin Howe,
Arthur, Progressive-Conservative can-
didate; Rex Rafter, editor of the
Arthur Enterprise and Fred Edwards,
M.P. for Perth.
I Hon. George Drew, leader of the
'Progressive-Conservative party, will
appear in the district this week,
speaking in Palmerston, Arthur and
Mount Forest on August 1st. He will
speak in Kincardine and Owen Sound
lon the evening of the same day.
,OUT OF GAOL THURSDAY
IN AGAIN SATURDAY
Stanley Clay, a young man who
gives his home address as Walkerton
but who is not known here except to
authorities, has figured prominently
'in recent police court activities. Clay
was released on Thursday last after
serving a term in durance vile on a
charge of being drunk, and on Satur-
day was re-arrested on a similar
count and landed in the lock-up. It
appears that between his going and
returning he victimized a local young
man to the tune of $25.00. On being- re-
leased last Thursday he made a pre-
tense of seeking employment and on
being promised work by the local man,
asked an advance of pay and was giv-
en twenty-five bucks. His non-appear-
ance for work as promised however,
started an enquiry and the erstwhile
employer found that his hired help
had landed back in gaol after having
spent all but six dollars of his advance
pay. It is stated that he had purchased
and consumed three bottles of liquor
and a case of beer,

LOST AND FOUND TWO
$100 BILLS
To lose two $100 bills is a sad occur-
rence. To find them again produces
an entirely different sensation. Both
experiences fell to the lot of an Ar-
thur Township farmer this week.
On Monday he drew from the bank
two $100 bills. In the evening, they
were gone, Surely they had been lost
in Arthur, On Tuesday forenoon he
wisely decided to place a lost adver-
tisement in the columns of the journal,
He remembered the first and the last
place of business he had visited in
Arthur on Monday, and it was be-
tween these locations the advertise-
nient stated the currency had been
lost.
On Monday afternoon, he, was again
in our offices this time in a much
better frame of mind. He had found
the missing money, but not in Arthur,
Where? In his own hen house on the
farm.
He had gone Into the home of his
biddies on returning home on Mon-
day to throw them some feed and
there the money dropped. He looked
the place over very carefully on Tues.,
day morning, but there was no cash
shovving. In the afternoOn there was,

-PROMO N . co-Nr -CA-NAOTAN' *MOINEEKING. -FEAT
One of the great engineering undertakings In
Carkadlan history is still in progress at Steep
Reek, where a huge lake was drained and now
engineers are removing the sludge from • the
iron ore under the lake bed. Some 60,000,000
yards of overburden must be removed before the
estimated half-billion tons of high-grade ore can
be mined. The project has run into many diffi-
culties, one of the greatest of which was that
el dredging the lake bottom. Two of the world's
',palest dredges, shown here, were employed on
Abe sob, but broke down continually when they
—Central Press Canadian
reached the solid rock under the sludge, In-
stallation of BLM automatic clutches solved that
problem, only one of a long list of engineering
problems. Now, while ore is being mined near
the lake, plans are to start mining sections of
the lake bottom that have been bared while the
rest is being drained. It is estimated that it
may take four or five years to completely drain
the lake, accomplished by means of 3,000 feet of
pipeline, through which the silt Is forced over a
watershed. The old water line of the lake, 212
feet above the bottom, is Indicated by arrow.
