where it can he easily seen by the
collectors. Seaforth business men are
asked to leave their salvage at their
back entrances, where it will be col-
lected from the lanes.
All paper, magazines, bottles, rub-
ber items, including, tires, tubes,
rubber boots, etc., iron and steel,
brass, copper, lead, rags of all kinds,
dry 'bones, fats and grease will be
,accepted.
Rummage items that can be re-

total of almost $3,500 from the sale
of salvage and rummage.
During the time that the salvage

ers on Wednesday • afternoon, many
hands will be required to sort the
salvage. Will YOU help? Many, in

friends and at the same time will be
doing their bit by assisting in a very
worthy war effort.

Colonel Drew Hears Views. of
Farmers In Tour, of South
Huron
Colonel George A, Drew, leader of
the Progressive Conservative party
in Ontario, was a visitor in Seaforth
an Tuesday during a tour of the rid-
ing of South Huron. He was accom-
panied by Di•. R, H. Taylor, of Dash-
wood and Mr. 11.-.G. Meir of Sea -
forth. He arrived here about 11,30
and was. met by a representative
group of citizens at the town hall.
Colonel Drew said he was anxious
to hear at first -band what people
were thinking, He gave an informal
talk, describing the system of decen-
tralized control of agriculture which
he hacl seen in operation in Britain
during his recent visit. The system
rias had been set up at
the start of the war, in case the cap-
ital city of London were wiped out,
It had worked so well he thought it
would be kept on after the war in
Britain, and the United States has
adopted many of the essential feat-
; ores of the system.
Representative farmers were chos-
en in each county and these had con-
; siderable authority in arranging for
help and assuring a reasonable profit
