At every point in its whole power range, this engine will remind you of the smoothness and quietness of electrical operation. No other car today, regardless of its price, accomplishes the same freedom from noise and rumble. No other closed car interiors are so divorced from mechanical roar. McLaughlin -Buick engineering has achieved the result that all motor car engineers have sought for years. Let us give you a demonstration. MF -4l0 erson Brs.

Since that tune he has been hard at it. The candidate possesses It• piens- ant personality, and an excellent platform manner, his publIe and pri- vate record is open to the world, and with his knowledge of the rid- ing and his great personal energy. united support of the party behind him would appear to ensure victory upon this occasion. The situation is clarified somewhat by the circum- stance that John W. King, late Pro- gressive member, gave devoted sup- port to the King administration In all that it did. Had he given a single vote otherwise, he might now have been in a position to appeal to in- dependent electors, 1 but Mr. King stood for overythig that his name- sake upheld, and even when West- ern Progressives were unable to stay with the late Government, the member for North Huron maintain- ed his support, Mr. MacEwan married Miss Emily Mary Goldthorpe, a member• of one t.Z. rBp IDz T81t AIITOt1081 L88 A).8 Bel LT.

It is doubtful if any Liberal party work- er ever thought of seeking the vote of a man with a name that links that of the great Sir John A. and his son as well. It wouldn't have done any good, anyway; John Mac - Ewan was born into, meted tor, reared under and disoluhly joined with the Conservative party. He fought for it when a boy at school, without knowing much about the whys and wherefores; in youth ne began to work for it, and has serv- ed the party in West, Center lino North Huron, according to that pre- vailing name, and in whatever cap- acity seemed good to his colleagues, up to the present time. John MacEwan is a whole lot of other things besides a Conservative;, he is not a professional politician by e any means. But still, when a man is running for Parliament, a record of the kind referred to conduces to a feeling of satisfaction within the party, and even the opposition has respect for a candidate about \Aloe° policy there is no doubt. In fact, everybody in the riding is directly concerned, because the record o1 re- cent elections indicates that the Con- servatives arc due for a win in North Huron, George Spotton was so near defeating John W. icing, Progressive, last October, that for a time he was officially counted in. The adverse 1 d tb the finally doe on majority,a to s Y p Y courts, was but 170, and John Mac 1'Jwan's friends believe he will give the necessary "Yo, heaveI" to ream the top this time. H. J. A. MacEwan is mayor of Goderich. He was born there, son of the late Peter MacEwan, whose name was known throughout the pro- vince years ago in connection with the salt industry. MacEwan, senior, had the first rock salt refinery in America, and the gyiginal well. This was not in Goderich, strictly speak- ing, but across the River Maitland in Saltford, (Evidently the salt dis- revery preceded and named the vil- lage.) John himself has been con- nected for years with that industry and also the fuel business. Besides being a native son, Ite op- tained his education in the county town and unlike so many of On- tario's energetic young Wren, with - Stood temptations to wander abrond He has already servod 10 years on the board of Goderich C:>P,r; tittle, which he used to attend. As a rate- payer in Saltford, which is in Col- ' borne Township, he was interested inthe aifales of that municipality, and was five years elm the Council, )cart of the time as reeve; which of course, took him info Huron Coun- ty Council. 1I0 became successively ' councillor, reeve and nayer of '= od H. J. A..MacEWAN minion erich, and at the present time is en- titled to be addressed as "his wor- ship." All of which is a mighty fine training in public service for any man offering himself as representa- tive in Parliament: Incidentally, Mr. btacEwan gravi- tated into the position of secretary of the North Huron Liberal -Conser- vative Association, and has been sec- retary earetary and also president of the Goderich association. He and the vonevable William Campbell have been mainstays of the party through good times and bad. Tc knows tho political peculiarities of every Tenni- finality in North Huron — and his size -up of the present situation is interesting. IIe was proposed as can- didate at the Dominion conventions of 1921 and 1926, and when George W. Spotton, of Wingham, reccivad a majority on these occasions, John MacEwan went right on working for the choice of the party, it is rguad- ly pleasant to record that Me. Spot - ton at the 1926, where Mr, Spotton obtained a majority, made it plain that he would be found ett4mping the riding for "MacEwan mrd the national policy." It certainly does look as if the electors would diepenee With two Kings this time--Wiilittm Lyon Mackenzie and John W. Meir.

After a lengthy, and at times, a somewhat heated discussion, the Stratford Public Utiities Commission, at its regular meeting, decided to wipe out the position of manager of Hydro Shop, and allow the shop to run itself, with the various salesmen, bookkeepers and wiring staff, work- ing under the general management of the secretary-treasneer of the Com- mission, R. H. Myers. Catching his arm betweeu the belt and the pulley that drives a stone crasher in the gravel pit, two miles West of Mitchell, James Robertson, of that town, was severely injured. Robertson had been adjusting the belt, and in some manner caught his arm. It was found, after he had been rushed to Stratford General Hospital, that he had sustained a compound fracture. The field competition in standing oats, under the auspices of the Ful- larton, Logan and Hibbert Agricult- ural Society, was judged by Archie Greer, of Mansfield. Fourteen fields were judged, the prizewinners being : 1, Alex.
