New Car Wash Open for Business A new type of do-it-your- self car washing has made its appearance in Wingham. A Sofspra installation has been un- der construction just off Vic- toria St. with its entrance next to Red Front Grocery. J. C. McIntyre of Wingham is the proprietor. It is now in opera- tion. A customer drives his car in- to one of the bays of the car wash. By depositing a quarter in a slot, he activates a patent- ed gun wash which delivers a detergent solution under 500 pounds of pressure, eliminating the need for scrubbing. When the car is clean, a push on a button turns the gun into a phase of pressurized de- livery of soft water which per- mits drying without spotting. A special feature of the new installation is that the car can be washed without special pro- tective clothing. The "Sofspra" gun can also be used to clean motorcycles, boats, pickups, campers, ven- etian blinds and lawn equip- ment, and when the installa- tions are complete facilities will be able to handle even large transports. Vacuum cleaners are also available. Mr. McIntyre advised that a grand opening of the new busi..! Mrs A.

Committee Seeks More Information About Ambulances A meeting of the special committee set up to study am- bulance service for this district was held at the Wingham and District Hospital on Thursday evening, presided over by R.B. Cousins of Brussels. The com- mittee is composed of the ex- ecutive committee of the hos- pital board along with George Joynt of Lucknow, Frank Field of Teeswater and Stewart Proc- ter of Morris Township, who represent the municipalities concerned. The chairman pointed out that a statement had beenmade in regard to ambulance service since the last meeting and re- quested the secretary, John Strong to read excerpts from an address by the minister of health for the province. The minister had stated that a task force would be set up at once to study the entire ambulance question and that effective at once the department would as- sume 500/0 of the "amount ex- pended". It was felt, however, that the statement is not complete- ly clear in regard to what ex- penditures would be covered. However, the municipal repre- sentatives all stated that their councils considered the action taken so far to set up an am- bulance service to be operated by the hospital is the only course for this district, regard- less of what action may betak- en by the department of health.
