If the project develops into a reality, the Kinsmen Club will probably underwrite part of the cast, as a method of keeping rents as low as possible, In the fall the club contacted the Wingham coun- cll and has atentative agreement that property owned by the, town would he available for the pur- pose.

Victoria and Grey Trust Company OWEN SOUND, ONTARIO new "Car of the Year" Award Winner The 1962 Lark was selected winner of the "Car of the Year Award" over all domestic cars. Canada Track and Traffic, the nation's leading automotive journal, thoroughly tested every make of ear. Design, quality, comfort, room, handling, economy, relia- bility( craftsmanship—every as- pect in the design, manufacture and performance of an automobile was carefully checked. The 1962 Studebaker Lark was found to be the best automobile buy of all domestic cars. Design Unanimously lauded by judges as handsome, functional and free from false ornamentation that forces obsolescence. Finish and in- terior decor of highest quality. Overall appearance --tasteful, stylish. pled in Dundalk, Orangeville, Or- illia and Durham.. Preparations are well advanced for construction tat 'Trenton, VVall 'rton, Mitchell and Petrolia, Surveys to determine need are under way at Exeter, Hanover, Mount Forest, Norwich and T humesville. The building proposed contains four one -bedroom suites for couples and seven bachelor suites for single persons. Each suite has its own four -piece bathroom, a storage room, and kitchen (+quipped with electric range and refrigerator. Rentals include heat and water, use of automatic washer and dry- er. Rents would be approximate- ly $32.00 for single persons and $52 for couples. Financing is available through a unique combination of government• and community support. The fed- eral government, through Centra' Mortgage and Housing Corpora- tion provides a long-term, low-inter- est mortgage to cover up to 90 per cent of capital cost. The provin- cial government, by grant, and the sponsor, by provision of share cap- ital, share equally the remaining cost. When the mortgage is re- paid the building may become the Property of the town. Because the federal government bears the major part of the cost, it also sets the rents and the con- ditions for occupancy. Persons must be 60 years of age or over, he in good health, and there is a max- imum limit to the income they may have. This maximum is ap- proximately $2,100 for single per- sons and $2,700 for couples. Advantages to the municipality are several substantial local con. struction expenditures, eventual ownership of a valuable building -- but chiefly long-term provision of excellent accommodation for old- er people of limited means. Some older people thus accommodated might otherwise seek residence in a Home for the Ager] at a capital cost of $3,000 or more per • room and substantial subsidy each year. Since the proportion of older people in the community is inertias. ing rapidly, it is becoming more ur- gent that inexpensive accommoda- tion should be provided with their particular needs in mind. The tremendous interest current- ly being shown throughout On- tario in this program testifies to its timeliness and to the need which exists. Hosuital Auxiliary (Continued from Page One) Reserve supplies are always maintalned. At the present there are in the sewing room 234 pieces cut and ready for sewing, as well as 3J2 completed articles. In ad- dition, a disaster cupboard is maintained, of sheets, towels, gowns, etc., in case of a serious calamity. As an additional service, the auxiliary has a committee which serves refreshments to the- pa- tients who attend the cancer clin- ics, held twice each month at the hospital.
