Stock, 366 Bay St., Toronto 20-21-22-b Huron -Perth Candidate Successful Hormebuilder (By John Armstrong, Zurich) Through the columns of your most valuable paper, I wish to present' to its many readers only. a few of the many things I' know about Elgin McKinley, Progres- sive Conservative candidate for Huron -Perth.. I know him as a successful home builder. At the 'McKinley home you always find a happy, contented family, where, as each one grows up, they learn to work and learn to live; where unself- ishness and thoughtfulness are ever manifest and each apparently endeavoring to live according to the Golden Rule. I feel this is most important, as so much de- pends upon the homes of our fair Canada. I know him as a successful busi- ness builder. At McKinley Farms and Hatchery you find: . (1) A large mechanized farrn where every modern machine used in farming can be seen; (II) A splendid herd of Pure- bred Shorthorn cattle from which nearly breeding animals haye gone•. out to be an asset to the beef industry; (III) A large, new, and modern chick hatchery where approxim- ately 200,000 chicks are hatched annually. Hundreds of farmers and others make their annual trip to this enterprising industry to purchase their baby or started chicks. I know him as a man vitally in - Wrested in every community or welfare project advanced for the benefit and good of our fellow citizens; ever ready to give moat generously of time and means to all worthwhile efforts. I know him as a man that is not. possessed of narrow partisan views, but rather broadminded, a deep thinker, ever standing for the things that build initiative, in- centive, and all splendid qualities that enable men and women to stand on their own feet. We have too many looking for sometihng for nothing. I know him as a man having a practical knowledge of the needs of agriculture, the basic industry of our country. Our con- stituency is the home of thous- ands of farm voters, We have not been represented by a successful farmer since the days of the late Thomas McMillan. We need a fine, young man like Elgin Mc- Kinley. So, dear reader (regardless of your political affiliations or lean- ings) I feel, I can commend to you this man, who is a practical farmer, a Christian gentleman, and definitely well-qualified for the office he seeks. He is carrying on an active, vigorous and clean campaign, 1 it's a good idea to have a SUPPOSE you have what you feel is a good opportunity which calls for bank credit, If one bank cannot see it your way, or if you think you can get a better deal elsewhere, you're free to "shop around". Banks compete to serve the most diversified needs, no matter how specialized any of them may be ... personal, business, or farmloans, looney transfers, collections — to name just a. few. More than 95 out of 100 bank loan applications are decided "right in the field"—in the branches—by bank managers who take a personal interest in serving their customers' individual requirements. Going to your bank is not like having to deal with a state bureau—hut that's how it would be under state monopoly.

Ile will not dis- appoint you. 22-b County Councillors Visit Dunlop Tomb After visiting the historie'Dun- lop tomb on the brow of the hill overlooking Saltford, the proper ty committee and the Good Roads Commission of Huron County Council decided to ask the Coun ty Council to designate who sho- uld be responsible for the main- tenance of the tomb, which marks the last resting place of Dr. Wil- liam ("Tiger") Dunlop, first war- den of Huron, and of his brother, both pioneers of this district. The committees also visited several properties in Goderich, with a view to choosing a site for a museum, but no decision was reached. WCTU.
