- MBE ONTARIO LI• ERAL
Crowning t%s:errty-two• years of public
life, Farquhar Oliver, M.P.P.for Grey
South, has been elected leader of the
Liberal party in Ontario. HO was the
choice of 1,200 -delegates from all parts
of the Province *at the. three-day con-
\•ention of Ontario Liberals at Toronto
last week.
Although only forty-three years of
age, the new Liberal leader has been
a member' of the' Outario Legislature
11n
than t�\cat •-one years, d
for more tl S
the Liberals look forward with con-
fidence to' a vigorous revival in Ontario
under experienced yet youthful direc-
tion.. In addition to being - -victorious
;Tx six successive I'r vir►cial- elections;
Mr. Oliver—youngest man ever to sit
in the Ontario House—has been a Pro-
vincial Cabinet Minister, and has been
leader of the Opposition since 1945.
Although equally familiar with urban'
and rural •problems, 21r. -Oliver is a
practical farmer. He was born on the
farm, netit-Priceti zller. so-utheast--of
Owen Sound, Where he now lives -and
works. His grandfather was a pioneer
of the Prrc.eville district. • His parents,
Mr.• and Airs. :dames 01iVer,- live at
Flesllerton• in the same district.
Mr. Oliver farms 550 acres, of &which
his wife is the lnanager=°'and a; go.ocl
one, too." Mr. Oliver declares: Mr. and
Mrs. Oliver have both beef 'arid• dairy
cattle, and their farm is their liveli-
hood, not a hobby. Mrs. Oliver: is the
Ililil to enter politics.
F'Eleete(l.tii•st to represent Grey South
in 1,920, Mr. Oliver was successful in
the successive elections of 1929, 1934,
11937. 1943 and 1945s- In 1941, he was
