Plans are rapidly going forward for the big celebration in connec'cion with the '100th anniversary of the opening of the Huron tract and those in charge are sparing no efforit to make the event worthy of the historic occasion which it will com- memorate, It has been definitely de- cided that the celebration will :take place on Labor Day, Sept. 3rd, and a meeting of the Central Committee, of which Mayor J. A. Andrew, of Stratft'd ,is chairman, was held in Seaforth this week to make further preparations: The Hon. G. S. Henry acting Premier and Minister of Public Highways,' has accepted the invite, tion to take part in the celebration, which will also mark the completion of the Huron hi hevay to Godorieh. Present indications are that the streCeb from Seaforth to Clinton, now being paved, will be completed at least a week before Labor Day and it is planned to have the ribbon cut at either of these two places with appropriate ceremony, In the meantime several more cairns in memory of early pioneers are to be erected and it is likely that a cele- bration will be held all along the road from Fryfogle's Conner to Goderich, G.

A Former Citizen. The Toledo Edison Newt, publish- ed by the Electric Co., for the em- ployees had in the July number a picture of Joe Sharp, a former Brus- sels•odtl, boy, and a brother of Mrs. Ida Lowry, of town. Following was the write-up :—On a dismal rainy af- ternoon back in April, 1980, a young huskie walked into The Toledo Elec- tric Company's plant, then located oon the site of the present Rivoli Theatre, and told: the manager, Mr, Bates, that he wanted a job. Peering oover his spectacles, Mr. Bates asked the usual questions and found 'that this would-be employe could, among other things, climb poles, care for Thompson & Huston arc lamps, and that he had obtained some experi- ence out in the farm country of Ne- braska. No such help was needed, but one of the firemen was sick and the preelect could have that job un- til he returned, if he would shovel coal for 15c an hour. He took the job—and we will tell you right here that was the manner in which Uncle Joe Sharp was initiated into the my- steries of our eledtrical system. Alter his job as fireman was completed, Jos was extra trimmer, trouble shoot- er•, lineman, ganee foreman, and litre;l fibreman in rapid succession. His next :Keep brought him into the re- : sponsibilities of general line foreman. Here for 13 years he handled all line and trolley work, having sole charge of all linemen, trimmers, track bonder, troubleman, etc. We might go on to tell of the many changes which were made and com- pleted under Joe during this pioneer- ing period of our company, how from small motor -fan service in series with arc circuits, different lighting methods, and 550 Volt D. C. power, we have evolved our present system; but than can be found elsewhere and her we want to tell you about Joe, While general foreman he organized a tug-of-war team at the Line De- partment, that all the old-timers surely remember, How "Sim" "Ira" "Mat" and the rest of those 200 pounders licked overybhing in sight, including the police and firemen, - furnished many good times and leaves a lot of pleasant mammies.

The next thne you want 10 know somethin and don't know where to look, ask Joe—he'll sec yeti straight, Joe's philosophy (he doesn't call it that) is clear and simple He believes that a million friends are worth more than a million dollars and although he's not 11 millionaire, he has a host of friend-. Joe says the key to service and satisfaction is in delivering the best you have, and playing fair so that the other fellow will always meet )jou half way. Good luck to you, Joe, and may .you be with us another 38 years! Dolores Costello Coming in Melodrama of the Sea.
