BIRD TERMS'—DASH CHEQUES ACCEPTED ON FURNITURE 5% SALES TAX ItN EFFECT The untimely death of Walt Disney, one of Hollywood's best-known film creators, has a local interest much beyond his great contribution to the world of entertainment. His father, Elias Disney, was born on a farm in Morris Township near Bluevale and his father's sister- in-law was married to Peter Cantelon, an uncle of Leon Cantelon of Wingham. Elias Disney received his early education at the Bluevale public school and later attend- ed the old Central School in Goderich (now the Huron Coun- ty Museum building). When Walt Disney's father was about 18 years old, in 1877, the family moved to El- lis, Kansas and later to Chica- go, where Walt was born. The great movie magnate paid a visit to the family home sites in Huron County in 1947 and members of the family from CW1 EUCHRES The C.W.L. held their weekly euchre in the parish hall on Dec. 6 with 10 tables in play.

STARTED SMALL His movie empire was start- ed in a very small way with animated cartoons, one of his earliest and most famous char- acters being Mickey Mouse, closely followed by Donald Duck and a host of others which were so dear to the hearts of children and adults alike. His first venture into feature- length films was the all-car- toon picture, "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" and this was followed by many others until the production of "Mary Pop- pins" recently. His movies covered nature subjects and dozens of other subjects of wide interest. In 1950 he broke into the television field and appear- ed personally on hundreds of the programs which followed. His contribution to the education and culture of our times has been tremendous.
