McKelvie at the first annual Bean Festival held In Hensall on La- bour Day. The 1,000 people that thronged the Community Park certainly believed the word, and ate heartily of the good hot food prepared by the .Hensel] Kinsmen and their wives. - Sliced tomatoes, rolls, celery, ketchup, cake, coffee and chocol- ate milk served with the beans - topped off a busy day after an old-timers ball game, and one of the finest parades yet to be seen in Hensall. The parade consisted. of 34 floats from village business places, and from. others in the county, and was led by the stirring music of the Brodhagen Band and the Bannockburn Pipe Band. Coog Knight played the.part of a clown and rode a tandem, while Harold Hedden, Dresden, dressed as a Mexican . and there was a chap representing• a dog catcher. Main Street of Hensall was well decorated with varicoloured ban- ners and lights. • Police Constable Cecil Gibbons, Exeter, guessed correctly in the. bean guessing contest placing the number in the jar at 14,900, which was just 14 more than the actual count. , He won the prize of $12. The Kinsmen did the cooking of the beans themselves, under the guidance of their president and the work was mainly done before- hand in a local bakeshop, How- ever, steaming kettles were kept hot at the park, and the Kins- men's wives helped out with the serving. A street dance in the evening finished off the Bean Festival.

Q TONS OF NAILS COLLECTED BY ONTARIO'S MAGNETIC - NAIL PICKER DURING PAST YEAR The figures don't indicate how many lives may have been saved; how many flat tires avoided. But, if the Ontario Department of Highways hadn't sent its magnetic "nail picker" over 4,896 miles of provincial roads last year, -there would have been more than 5 tons of menacing metals left as potential hazards to tires and lives on Ontario roads. The scrap netted -by the nail picker had 'a total weight of 10,842 pounds. In operation since 1943, when it was. produced by engineers of the Highways Department, the nail picker averages , about 95 miles of road weekly, each year, gatheringin nails, filings and other hazardous _ metal objects which have fallen on the roads. •0j4, The machine works onmimple prin. chiles, it is pointed out by W. B. Hutche- son, executive' officer to the Minister of Highways. An ordinary ton -truck gen- erates electricity to magnetize a heavy - steel bar, which extends across the back of the truck, close to the roadway. Metal objects are picked up on this, and when the magnet becomes loaded, it is de- magnetized, and, the objects then drop into : a "blanket". This is then emptied into the truck. The machine is in constant demand throughout the province, Mr. Hutcheson ""reveals. Various towns and muhicipali- 'ties as well as private concerns seek its use, "and we can't begin to comply with all the demands 3vhich are made". He points out that the use of the machine is particularly valuable in long : stretches of road through lonely country where few service stations are in operation. Flat tires can mean much more under such .circumstances, he said. The stretch between Hearst aiid Geraldton was pointed out as a typical area of this nature where the services of the nail picker were invaluable.
