THE CLEAR CHOICE
RR#1, Wingham nR7_-i97n
Hwy. 4,1 mile South of Wingham
Any person who drives, even occasionally, on the highway, will
concur that the elements are not the only hazard to your vehicle
The driver ahead who swerves onto the shoulder or the transport
truck creating a vacuum beneath its trailer both dump sand and/or
gravel right in your path, and often right onto your windshield.
Although the bombardment might not necessarily break the
windshield, over time, tiny pit marks occur. These holes hinder
your vision on sunny days and wet nights; the fact is that you can't
drive when you can't see.
The specialists at WHEELER AUTO GLASS can efficiently
replace your broken windshield, which can reduce driver fatigue
and increase your visibility by changing your worn and pitted glass.
The most important factor with most consumers is that the glass
installed meets or exceeds the manufacturers original glass, and
that it is installed correctly to resist leaking.
WHEELER AUTO GLASS opened on Dec. 1, 1991 and is locally
owned by JERRY WHEELER. His firm specializes in auto glass
replacement for cars, trucks and vans plus they offer custom flat
glass cut to size, sunroofs, truck and car window sliders, bug
deflectors and FREE MOBILE SERVICE.

do the work in a minimum of time. The people at WHEELER
AUTO GLASS pride themselves on doing their assigned task
quickly and to your satisfaction the first time.

paperwork for you.
When the time arises that auto glass work is required, call the
staff at WHEELER AUTO GLASS and be assured of fair prices,
quality products, and people with years of experience.

GIBSON JESEE°E
A PLEASANT PLACE TO DO BUSINESS
LUCKNOW 528-2447
This is a business that needs no introduction to many people in
this area. Over the years GIBSON FEED & SEED has consistently
provided value for every dollar spent and has continued to grow by
meeting their customer’s needs today and for the future.
Today's farmers are realizing that feed must be high in nutrition,
so custom blends are now available for certain types and breeds of
livestock, and to serve different purposes. A high nutrient intake
can ensure that your livestock is healthy and less susceptible to
bacteria and disease, and helps to increase conception rates
among breeders which in itself is an economic advantage. Grain
farmers benefit from a wider variety of seeds, some designed to
take off earlier in the spring, establish thicker uniform stands for top
yields.
GIBSON FEED & SEED established in Nov. 1989 is locally
owned by DON GIBSON. Don features the best in
MASTERFEEDS products.
Service at this firm includes providing consultation service,
complete feed supplements, premixes, specialty feeds, custom
feeds, and quality seeds.
The owner, together with staff members, let customers know
how important they are to them. The management and helpful
staff welcome old and new customers alike. There is an air of
friendliness on the part of the people of GIBSON FEED & SEED
that is enjoyed by customers from the town of Lucknow as well as
farmers of the area. Consistently better value and service is what
has made GIBSON FEED & SEED distinctive leaders in their field,
and this is why we feel they warrant the patronage of our readers.

Water demands for a summer cottage will differ from that of a
fully equipped family farm home or a single family country home.
Water requirements have increased considerably in the modern
household and farm. Automatic clothes and dishwashers and
automated farm equipment increase demand.
A proper well - passed by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment
is a most valuable asset - a must - for the consumer when a new
water supply is necessary.
A good water supply will top your list of priorities if you don't live
in an area that supplies city water to its customers. Presently, safe
water is a major concern as good water is essential to one's health

of Environment and are members of Ontario Ground Water
Association and Canadian Ground Water Association.

DAVIDSON who is assisted by a staff of 14 who are all well-
qualified in their field.

new home in the country, you'll be needing someone to dig that
new well.

BELLS PIZZA
RATED AS ONE OF THE BEST IN THE AREA
176 Josephine St.,
WINGHAM 357-3400
There is a great frontier of restaurants out there, and being a
restaurant explorer has its occasional rewards. Such was the
case on a recent visit to BELLS PIZZA.
Here you can enjoy dining at its finest, in a very relaxed
ambience. Accompanying unique atmosphere are very
affordable prices.
Today, unfortunately, the truly great pizza places are few and
far between, as there are many cost-conscious operators who
are only interested in profit. The results are crusts that look
and taste like cooked cardboard, sauce that is equal to
ketchup, cheese that is similar to melted plastic, and those
extras you ordered are so sparse that you have to look carefully
to be able to find them.
BELLS PIZZA has constantly provided the area residents
with great tasting pizza at a competitive price, thus offering
value for your money.
In our research, we look for a pizza place that provides tasty
pizzas with adequate portions, good size varieties, crispy (not
soggy) crusts, and fast efficient service. BELLS PIZZA excels
in all these requirements.
BELLS PIZZA opened in September 1977 and is locally
owned by LORNE AND MARGARET HUMPHREY.
At BELLS PIZZA you can get fresh homemade pizza with
extra sauce, double cheese, toppings such as pepperoni,
mushrooms, ham, pineapple, peppers, olives, etc.
They offer another unique way to purchase pizza. They will
make to order the pizza of your choice already to pop into the
oven when you get home. BELLS PIZZA also have banquet
facilities for 2 to 30 people.
The next time you decide to dine out and are searching for a
positive experience, remember BELLS PIZZA.

answers would likely be quite similar. Most people want a

also wants informative answers to some questions they may have,
and automotive service that is done right the first time. The people

themselves on catering to these important factors so that they wifi
be the only dealership you'll ever need to visit.

The things you can do with ready mixed concrete to
improve, remodel or even build your home or vacation lot are
just about limitless. Even though concrete is simply mixture
of cement, fine aggregates such as sand, coarse aggregates
such as gravel or crushed rock and water, the mixture and
materials must be perfect for durability, watertightness and
required strength.
One of the rewarding things about getting work done with
ready mixed concrete in any of their various forms is that you
get a lot for a little money. The ideal way for many home
owners to get concrete today is to buy it already mixed and
delivered to your home and poured into your forms or your
wheelbarrow. After you have had excavating done and have
had the forms built and braced, you can have MAITLAND
CONCRETE deliver their quality ready mixed concrete.
The firm serves commercial and industrial needs as well as
residential and farm owner's requirements.
You may require ready mixed concrete for a planned
basement floor, barbeque foundation, driveway, residential
foundation, garage floor, sidewalk, steps or porch floor. Even
if you're just a novice, the people of this firm can assist you
with the knowledge of when concrete requires steel reinforcing
such as with sidewalks, driveways and floors.
Their delivery vehicles have become a familiar site
throughout the region.
We feel that the ready mixed concrete products of
MAITLAND CONCRETE are strong, but their service and
reputation are just as durable.
WILLITS TIRE SERVICE
LUCKNOW 528-2103
OFFER SELECTION, SERVICE AND SOUND ADVICE
With Summer arriving many people make the major decision to
either buy a new car or have the existing model upkept. After a
winter of snowbank bashing; pot-holed roads; fluctuating
temperatures; salt strewn highways and less visual attention, new
tires should be a major consideration to improve your ride.
Few parts on the modern automobile have improved more than
tires. Continuous development and testing by the manufacturers
has enabled the marketing of passenger tires that last longer,
corner better, stop sooner and offer better gas mileage Today,
safety and economical vehicle operation are at the forefront in the
mind of an educated vehicle operator.
Not only do radial tires give you the advantage of safety due to
increased traction but less slip also means less tire revolutions
resulting in less tire wear and gas usage.
The staff at WILLITS TIRE SERVICE can help you choose the
appropriate tire to suit your vehicle's size and style, load limits,
speed rating and your budget.
Established since 1973, WILLITS TIRE SERVICE has been
successful over the years due to the hard work and dedication of
owner BRUCE WILLITS.
At WILLITS TIRE you'll find all the top names in quality tires you
would expect to find in a first class tire and auto centre, names like
MICHELIN, DAYTON, FIRESTONE, GOODYEAR, KELLY
SPRINGFIELD.
Modern tires make it easy to know when they need replacing as
there is a built-in tread indicator that appears as a bald strip
running across the tire tread When you see this, it is time to go
shopping at WILLITS TIRE SERVICE.

The energy you burn to heat hot water in your house is nearly
enough to heat the house too! But when hot water isn't being
used, the heat escapes through the tank jacket and lines to the
taps. Your water tank is forever being re-heated, waiting for you to
draw off hot water.
So heating engineers have devised a heat exchanger to
recapture this wasted energy and heat the house. It's so efficient
that it will both heat the house and deliver all the water you can
use. And the cost is a fraction of what youVe been paying.
The secret is an oil fired hot water tank. Oil is the most
convenient and inexpensive heating fuel available, nothing
touches an oil fired hot water heater for quick recovery.
On the coldest days you never run out of hot water. Instead of
cold water returning to the tank, it comes from the exchanger only
15 or 20 degrees cooler than it left.
These units are being installed in houses around Bruce County
by Chisholm Fuels of Lucknow, the oldest and best known oil
heating firm in this part of Ontario.
Heat exchangers are built for domestic, commercial and
industrial installations. They require only a few square feet and fit
easily into almost any location. The tank can be 100 feet from the
exchanger, even in another building. Central air, humidifiers, air
filtering are easily added. Side venting can replace a chimney.

business. You'll be astounded at the savings
