LAURA RAITHBY
Laura Raithby,
daughter of Dr. and Mrs.
Mark Raithby of
Goderich, will be leaving
this Saturday from
Toronto International
Airport for the Philip-
pines to begin an exciting
adventure.
Through the Rotary
Youth Exchange
Program, she will live
and go to school` for a
year in .Manila, the
capital city of the
Philipines.
She is not too worried
about the language
barrier because she says
English is spoken in the
school she will be at-.
tending along with
Spanish,. Thealog and
Philippino. Her host
family is named Reyes.
Laura specifically
chose the Philippines
because she wanted to go
to a Third World country
where the life style is
completely different
from ours. She felt this
would• • be the only op-
portunity she would ever
get to visit such a
country. The tropical
weather also' appeals to
her, she says.

and Mrs. Jack Grace of
Goderich, just returned

Ruth Chapman brought
us an article this week
from a 1925 edition of the
Goderich Signal -Star. It
reads as follows.: '
"Nineteen years ago it
would have been difficult,
if not impossible, to find
an automobile owner with
sufficient faith in his car
to bet that it would travel
125 • miles without
breaking down and
without any outside

assistance the way of
bot'ses or mules.
"Yet in 192:5 James
Black of Godirich ac-
cepted a bet that he would
drive his car from
Goderich to the plant now
making the particular
brand of car he favors.
And Mr. Black's car was
exactly as it was 19 years
ago. He took no longer to
make the trip than the
average tourist and when
they told.him it was time
he was getting a new car
he pointed out that there
was little use, 'con-
sidering the old car was
still going strong.'
"Then he drove the
ancient car back home
again --and collected his
$100 bet.
"It is interesting to note_
in connection with the
above illustration (it
looks like a Model T) that
the Ford Motor Company
of Canada Limited,
celebrates its 21st bir-
thday on August 17. From
total shipments in 1904 of
117 to the grand total of
541,251. shipments in 1924
indicates the gigantic
growth of this stupendous
Canadian industry."
The James •Black
mentioned in the article
was the assistant post-
master here at one time
and Mrs. Chapman in-
forms us that he was
"quite a character".
I wonder what he would
think about today's car
company financial
troubles and the price of
gas? '
