SEAFORTH, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1948 Phone 84 fi it year Spectacular Fire Causes Little Damage Firemen Extinguish Blaze At Hesky Factory After Two - Hour Fight ,Con Friday night about 11 p.m. a fire occurred in the premises of. Becky Flax Products in Seaforth. The fire was quickly brought under control thanks to the prompt action of the local fire brigade Who ans- wered the summons with extreme promptness and whose efforts confin- ed the flames to the dust collecting section of the works where the fire started, The sprinkler system through the main buildings went into action and eliminated entirely all clanger of fire spreading to the main parts of the building. Damages are confined to super- structure of the dust chamber and dust collecting' cyclones, There was slight damage by water to some material through the main building. The fact that the factory resum- ed work as usual on Tuesday and has been normally operating ever since, speaks well for the efforts of the Seaforth Fire Brigade, who handled the situation in a masterly manner, Mr. Thomas Crouch, manager of the factory, stated.

REMEMBRANCE DAY November llth The local Branch of the Canadian Legion is malting its anneal Poppy Day appeal to the people of this community on November 6th. The Poppy Fund is now a recognized institution wherever the Canadian Legion exists in Canada, and It waves a two -fold purpose of much merit. The money which is raised by the distribution of the Poppy -'— the symbol of sacrifice --- is used entirely to relieve unusual distress among war veterans of the last war and the present conflict, and their families. At all times it has been found that the veterans, in view of the fact that many of then have disabilities and handicaps, suffer even more than others who are out of employment, since many of them require special care and attention which they aro- unable to pr'oviclo. This is where the Poppy Fund, raised through the sale of poppies by the local branch of the Legion, stepe in and provides relief for the situation. There is another reason why every citizen should wear a poppy for Re- membrance day. These poppies are manufactured in the veteran shops of Canada, workshops in which handl- eappecl veterans are given sheltered employment, and in which they man- ufacture the humdrotis of thousands. of poppies which are distributed every year' at this time, 13y wearing e. poppy, citizens salt find much mpg - faction in knowing that they are helping these handicapped veterans to obtain a livelihood which they woald otherwise lads on account of their special disabilities, This two -fold appeal should find a ready response in the hearts and minds of the people of this commun- itY, which has always been ready to matte the way easier for those who served, Walton People High School Cadets Hensall Men On Bean At West Coast Hold Church Parade Growers Executive Interesting Letter From Van oouver by Mr. and Mrs Norman Sanderson - The following letter is from Mr and Mrs. Norman Sanderson, o Walton, who have been spendin some time in the vicinity of Van mover, 13,0, Pender Island, Port: Washington, I3 C,,.Oct. 19th, Editor, The Seaforth News, Deal' Sir: I thought you may be interested iii hearing some news from the coast here. We crone hers for a visit, but everyone works now so we got into overalls as well People who have been retired fol years have come out to help. 1-'S'e went to the fruit cannery at Lulu Island because there seems to be less red tape and taxes, etc. to bother with, We llelpecl with fou car - lots of loose crab apples, These were very large with lots of color and would average two inches through, The peaches were almost dame when we went., Then they canned six car lots of plums, canning beans at the salve time that were trucked in. This was on the Fraser River near Sea Island, a suburb of Vancouver where the Boeing Aircraft employs nearly 9000 people, The shipyards seem to be very dangerous, Mr, Wellington McLaughlin, formerly or Walton, who is a first aid man, told vie there are three of foul' hundred men get hurt every day. Among the many beauty spots in Vancouver, Forest Lawn cemetery rimlessrimlesshigh. This is where Mr. Aber - hart was buried. There are no tomb stones, only a fiat foot stone en- graved, that the mower goes over. Yon cannot notice a fresh grave ex- cept for a large shade to keep . the flowers fresh. When a grave is dug, the sorts are taken out in such a. man- ner that they are replaced without being noticed. There are artificial lakes; and music through the trees by loud speakers on Sunday after- noons.. We then went to Victoria and call- ed on McCall Bros• George has a small but very busy store, They are all well and happy. I forgot to say that there were three warehouses at the fruit can- nery, each one with an acre area full to the roof. Now we are at , Pender Island, which has 300 people here the year round. It has 25 miles of good roach and lies half way between Van- couver and Victoria, It is mostly bush, The land does not produce well: the gardens are very poor. Everything is imported, even fresh water. The fish cannery Here have about 75 people to operate it. We have good meals and bunk life. The Japs bought it, for $80,000 and paid for it in one year in the salt business. Now the Colonial Fish company have it and have equipped it for a cannery. The fish are bought from the fish- ermen at 56 a ton. They circle around to stake a set and the net closes at the bottom in some manner. If they happen to set on a. rock and spoil tine net, it is a serious loss, as a 240 fathom net costs $1500. Now they catch the herring around 100 meas- ures deep. I have a fisherman 011 one side of are and a longshore- man on the other, so that is where this information comes from. The herring come in on a lnrge scow that holds 70 tons. There is a large elevator let down into the scow which- takes the flslu to a bin, Before it gets to the bin they pass through a. measure which ]folds 290 Ms, similar to the bushel pleasure on the grain separators. in the West. The herring die quicker than other fish, therefore must be canners with- out delay. One week is the limit when salted; -24 hours when canned. They come out of this bin to gibbing machines, two people to a machine. This is a travelling table the shape of the fish, It is placed en its siorn- ach with tine treads up to a board, set so it will catch. the hearts proper- ly. There are two revolving knives 11lte buzz saws, one that catches the ]lead and pulls the insides as we71, and another that cuts the tall off. A shall hose runs water down beside each knife. Then the body part (2i3s) drops on a travelling table to the canners, and the refuse goes out on this saltie table, only underneath on its return side. out to another scow that goes to the reduction plant for cod liver oil, etc. This good part goes to a big dou- ble table with small travelling tables ou each side. Five people o1 each side put these on this travelling table, which tastes them to the machines that pack them in the cans. Then they travel on as they are fillers with tomato catsup. Then they go through the capper that eeals the cans. This machine caps 3000 carm- an ansan hour, Then they are placed on steel trays that hold 150 cans. Six of these trays form a, load, These rest on a little•. frame on four' wheels that run on a track. By the use of a turntable they run these into the three ovens. One holds fou' of these truck loads and the. other two hold three trucks each, These ovens can cools 9000 cans at once, 900 on each tsmelt. They cools thane at 212 degrees for forty minutes. Then.Then.these trucks are pulled out atter being sealed tight, having Huge weights of the ton doors, They are placed in four - dozen cartons and. plied in the ware- house, Tiley get boat loads of coarse salt in 00 -ton lots. The tomato catsup comes from .Essex, Ontario. One ton of raw herring cauls in 27 Continued nn Page 5 Seaforth Corps Attend Service in Presbyterian Church In New Uniforms • On Sunday.
