Crown Assets to Dispose of Former Base at Centralia According to a report from Exeter, on Tuesday, the Cen- tralia Canadian Forces Base has been turned over officially to Crown Assets Corporation by the federal department of defence. All federal surplus properties are disposed of by the corpora- tion. Exeter's Industrial Develop- ment chairman, Ross Tuckey, said that his organization has learned the base property, in- cluding 364 homes occupied by armed forces personnel, willbe cleared by August 1967. He is quoted as saying the homes will be sold "lock stock and barrel". Some 140 of the homes are still occupied by families who will keep their children in school at the base until the end of next June. The procedure for the dis- posal of the property is that Crown Assets must first offer it to federal agencies. If no ag- ency wants it then it will be offered to the Ontario govern- ment. Local municipalities and private companies will be giv- en an opportunity to purchase Mrs. G. Carter GORRIE—Mrs, Gordon Car- ter of Lucknow died at a Lon- don hospital Wednesday, Octo- ber 28, in her 28th year. She was the former Daisy Lambkin, daughter of Mrs. Roy Lambkin of Weston and the late Mr. Lambkin. She was born on Concession 2, Howick Twp. Surviving are her husband, Gordon Carter of Lucknow; her mother, Mrs. Roy Lambkin, Weston; three sisters, Mrs.Mer- vyn (Ella) Yuill of Cargill, Mrs. Russell (BueIah) Ellah of Stratford and Mrs, Earl (Namoi) Giles, Russeldale; three broth- ers, Jason of Toronto, Daniel of Woodstock and David of Kit- chener. Funeral service was held at the Moir funeral home, Gorrie, on Saturday, October 29. In- terment was in Fordwich Ceme- tery, the property if the two senior governments are not interested. The Exeter Industrial De- velopment group hope the base may eventually become an in- dustrial complex with a num- ber of secondary industries. The closing of the base is a serious blow to the Exeter reg- ion. The payroll of the air base over the past few years has averaged $5, 000, 000 a year. • What does Centennial mean to you Fordwicn Mr, and Mrs, Ivan Lowry and two daughters of Arthur and Mr. and Mrs, Edgar Merkley cf Corbettort were Sunday guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Drown, Mr. and Mrs, Everitr Sper- ling of Godertch spent the week., end with Mr. and Mrs, Robt.

TREAT INJURED FOR SHOCK Since there is the possibility that an injured person may de- velop shock, it is always im- portant to treat him -for this condition. lie may not show pallor, clammy skin or have shallow breathing or rapid heart- beat but he should he kept com- fortably warm. If he is pale, lift his feet so that the blood flows to his head, providing it does not affect the injury. It is better to have him lie down, unless, it is necessary to move him. Try to reassure him and keep people from crowding around him.
