A. Sheaffer 'Pen Co. of Canada Ltd. "In Europe, we all like the qual- ity of Canadian manufacturing," said John A. Dortmondr of Utrecht, The Netherlands. He is managing/ director of Jade -Drake Writin 1Vdatenials N.V. He,, added: "We are very favorably impressed with the working metho-ds of Mr. Black and the other Sheaffer people." Eric M. Loeb, president and gen- eral manager of Loeb & Cie S.A., of Paris, France, was also very impressed after a tour of the Gode- rich Sheaffer .plant, "1 have visit- ed many pen manufacturers in Europe," he stated, "but this is certainly the most modern." Max Hungerbu1ler, of St. Gall, SVvitzerland, pointed out, "Canada is well known in Switzerland as a country with a great future." Each of the visitors is a Sheaffer distributor in his own country and they expressed enthusiasm about the prospect of expanding sales. Sheaffer, they noted, is already, first in salesinn several countries, including Sweden anal Belgium. Mr. Dartmonid's, company is now an authorised manufacturing af- filiate of W. A. Shearer Pen Co. of Canada Ltd. and the Goderich plant is sup lying componezit parts for the operation. There will he a Sheer tesla at the International In4ustrleS Fair at Utrecht this fall and Mr. Dortmond looks forward to Mr. Black return- ing the visit at that time. As an item of interest, Mr. Loeb noted that the :Goderich plant man- ufactures special 18 carat gold pen points for shipment to France. The accepted standard in most other countries calls for 14 carat gold', ' but 'French regulations are different. Before leaving Goderich, the visiting businessmen were taken on a tour of the town iby Mr. Black. o----- o -------o LOCAL ISSUER The ,Departanent of Game and Fisheries has anonuneed the ap- pointment of Ken Pennington as issuer of fishing ° ,end hunting licenses. 110•••••••••••••0• aNM•ON•O••••ON••••••••• THE AT PARKTELEPHONE 1150 TOP SCREEN FARE IN AiR-CONDITIONED COMFORT Now Playing—"THE RACERS' --Ins Cinemascope' and Techni- color --with Kirk Douglas.

ODE:RIM SIGH Huge Quantities Grain Go By Rail Railways play a big part fn mov- ixrg grain nalazxd,{from Goderich, as well as the trucks, which confine their activities to ,abort hauls. y the end of June it is expected that More than 8,000,000 bushels of grain will have been moved from Goderich during tihe months of May and June by the two rail- ways—the ---the C.P.R., and the C,N.R. In May, the C.N.R. moved 1,500,000 bushels, or approximately 800 carloads. In June the C.N.R. expects to carry about 2,000,000 bushels inland.., This includes carrying grain for export to the ports of Montreal, . Quebec and Sorel. in May, the C.P.R. took from Goderich over 2,000,000 bushels, or approximately 1,000 carloads. In June, the C.P.R. counts on trans- porting nearly 3,000,000 bushels of grain from Goderich. Going Full Mast Building New Line The plants of Dominion Road Machinery Co., Ltd., are going .full blast to keep pace with orders for the completely re -designed line of Champion motor graders. Con. tractors have received the 1956 models with enthusiasm and orders have exceeded expectations. The company now employs over 125 men here. The new line, engineered 100 per cent by Canadians in Goderich, represents the results of the com- pany's 70 years of pioneering in its field. Though improvements have been made from year to year, this is the first major model change since 1948 when the 100 h.p. ma- chine was introduced. This year's new machines offer up to 134 h.p. with a new type of trans<tnission—torque-converter and power shift. There is neither a clutch pedal nor a conventional gear shift, but, as in the latest automobiles, the shifting is done at the touch of a lever, Cab of the machines has been re- designed to allow improved vision, and 'the firm has applied for pat- ents en" a new hydraulic mechanism for rotating the moldboard. Many contractors have expressed pleasure at the performance of the 1956 Champions, which are already in action from coast to coast in Canada. Cayley Hill„ sales man- ager, and Harold Rivers, service manager, are now away nn an in- speption tour, -calling on owners and operators of Champions in all parts of Canada. 0 In the first quarter of 1956 the value of foreign goods sold in Can- ada exceeded the value of Canadian exports by $225 million, compared with a trade deficit of $24 million in the same period of 1955. 11 .:NEW :AND ms -ED: PIANOS (Large Stock) FREE DELIVERY — SCHUETT'S 0 MILDMAY Furniture Showrooms G.

Many trick dogs accompanied the circus staged in Goderich last Thursday and sponsored by the Kinsmen Club. The dog shown above, valued at $400,- decided to go off on its own and look the town over. A frantic search was made for it all over town with the police and school children joining in the search. A reward was offered for its return. Just when circus officials had given the dog up for lost, it returned to Agricultural Park late Thursday evening. A clown here asks the dog why it was trying to leave the circus and , gets in return only a sheepish look as if to say, "I'll never do it again." Named Favorite Newspaper Corumn The Goderich Women's Institute met last Thursday hi MacKay Hall with the president, • Mrs. N. Clair- mont, presiding.
