Meeting Here
Protests Against
Cutting Rail Service
Following a protest meeting
M Seaforth town hall Thursday
evening, telegrams and letters
were sent to Donald .Gordon,
president of the ICNR„ +Hon,
George ,Marler, minister of rail
wiays, the Board •of Transport
Commissioners and the Post-
master •General.
Mayor Dr. McMaster of Sea -
forth presided. (Mayors of God-
erich, ,Clinton and (Mitchell at-
tended and addressed the meet-
ing, A number of interested re-
sidents of the various towns
were present, and members of
Seaforth Council
The .meeting took the form of
short addresses and comments
and numerous questions.
There were unofficial state-
ments from local postal offic-
ials.
!Some of the !highlights:
Elston Cardiff, IM.P. for Hur-
on, said the proposed curtail-
ment had !been carried on very
quietly. A letter. he had 'written
to Donald Gordon thirteen days
ago was still unacknowledged.
The whole district should un-
ite in protest. The change of
mail service froni train to trucks
should be delayed. The mail
contract provided considerable
income to the railway,
The railway could not prove
to the board of transport com-
missioners it was losing money
on these lines with the mail -con-
tract included.,
This district was in the snow
belt and during the winter the
railway furnished the only sure
and safe means of transporta-
tion during blizzard conditions
which have lasted as long as
three weeks.
'The railway should tell the
public what they intended to do.
Mayor McMaster said a de-
' pment association recently
has 'been formed to bring new
industries to this area, and in-
cidentally provide more busi-
ness for the railway. New in-
dustries require adequate train
service and would not locate in
districts lacking such service.
These counties would fail to
expand, and of course the rail-
way would lose further business.
J. Waldo Monteith, MP for
Perth, and Marvin Howe, .3EP
for Wellington -Huron, tookpart
in the discussions and ,made
suggestions.
Maurice Brown and Fred
Peel, both of Soaforth, told of
increased express shipments by
their firms in recent years.
Mr. Bridges of Palmerston
suggested that townships send
protests. Other speakers sug-
gested federation of agricul-
ture. boards of trade and ser-
vice clubs send letters.

face, anyone should guess that
a wedding will soon take place.
It always builds our hopes up,
few things please us more than
a young couple starting life's
journey as their parents did be-
fore. This summer has caused us
all lots of pain just when we're
ready to do a job down comes
the rain. By September 8 thresh-
ing
hreshing should he all through, yet
this will be the case for only a
few.Cheer up, Joan, and don't
feel blue, it's not just raining
at Campbell's, :but on the rest
of us too, And if by eleven the
threshing is through, Ken will
still be at the church, looking
handsome by two. Joan has been
very efficient at keeping re-
cords and books, but has she at-
tended a school for good cooks?
Will Miss Elford's teaching he
good enough to please Ken, or
will she be asking her mother
how to feed a gang of men?
Perhaps we should put all jok-
ing away, and all wish Joan a
'bright sunny Saturday. We ask
you to accept our 'best wishes
three: health, happiness and
prosperity.
