(London Free Press.)
The steel mills which are appar-
ently certain to be established at
Godericii will be welcomed not only
by the town which is immediately to
benefit, but by Western Ontario as a
whole. Not the least welcome will be
extended by London. The city's 'i><tt-
erest is not unselfish. London • is Gee-
Ilected with the great county of Her-
on, of which Goderiell is the County
Town, by long -continued friendship
and co-operation. This city gave tite
bonne of $100,000 which encouraged
the Grand Trunk Railway to build'
the London, Huron and Bruce Rail-
way which furnishes the centre of the
County with transportation facilities
London as a consequence has for
years been regarded as the commer-
cial ire robolis of the district.
g
suggested is that the
London Huron ' and Bruce Railway
is vital to London business interests
and that we as a city have a duty
to ourselves and to the district that
demands that, just as we bonused
the railway half a century ago, so
we should to -day tette steps to see
that the road. is brought up-to-date
and that it renders the service which
the time demands. The L. H. & B.
under private 'ownership suffers from
the absence of competition. There is
no other railway to keep the line
speeded up to that degree of service
which competition insures.
If the Government is shortly to
take over the Grand Trunk. Railway
the way to a soultion opens up. The
line should be. electrified, its road-
bed and ' bridges improved and' a
heavier rail provided. The service on
the line should' be rapid and frequent
There is no good ,reason to -day why
the oldest of ,the railway's coaches
and the smallest of their engines
should be reserved for us on this line
Huron with its many good towns,
and with Bruce beyond, equally rich
country that Loudon must keep in
touch with, is entitled to share in the
railway developement that is vouch-
safed to districts that are much new-
er and far less promising.
THE LATE WM. DIXON'.
Oneof the oldest settlers in Mc-
Gillivray, Wm. Dixon, died at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Herb
Mollard, on Tuesday, August 26th,
1919. Death came to Mr. Dison very
suddenly and without pain. Although
he had been in poor health for some
time he went about as usual. On Sun-
day morning he complained of a
great weakness and on'Monday pas-
sed away almost without warning in
his 81st year.
He was horn in Norfolk County,
England, near the town of Walsham
He came to Canada with his parents
when 15 years of age. He' lived for a
time in Elgin County and moved
from there to Newbury, Sixty-five
years ago he settled in McGillivray
at Brinsley, He helped to chop the
trees off the farm on which the Meth-
odist church now stands. Forty-eight
years ago he moved to the 7th con-
cession and cleared the homestead.
He lived for almost the alloted
span of life in McGillivray and saw
it progress from the days when it
was part of the primevil forest to its
present state of comfort and pros-
perity. In his immediate neighbor-
hood he was esteemed and valued as
a friend and neighbor.
The funeral took place to the
Parkhill cemetery. Rev. Mr. Kennedy
conducted the services at the house
and at the grave. Those present from
'a distance were Mr. Pearson,, Wal-
Iaceburg, Mrs. Jas. Georoge, Thames -
vine, Mr. and Mrs. Gray and Mr.
Dixon of Shetland, Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
Clark, Crediton and Mr. Dixon of
Davizers. He leaves to mourn of a
loving husband and father, his aged
widow, two sons, Robert, of West
Williams and William of McGilli-
vray anti two daughters; Mrs. Bert
Mollard, and Mrs. Joe Horner both
of Mrs. McGillivray,
The proposal is made by a mem-
her of the Parliament that the second
Monday of November be permanent-
ly chosen as the date for the annual
Thanksgiving Day, Armistice Day,
Nov. 11th, 1918 was the second Mon-
day in November and it might hen an
advantage to observe this day of the
week rather than the date of the
month each year. The recurrence of
the anniversary would reeatl one of
the greatest and most joyous occas-

tilities after more than four year of

questions upon it and every voter
must vote on every question. If he
fails to vote on any of the four ques-
tions his whole ballott will be thrown
out, so that it is useless voting at all
