The pro lerty known as the
(Antes toy factory, corner of Mar-
ket and Jarvis streets, Iles been
broken up and sold in several par -
eels during the weer(.
Louis Waxman, Brussels scrap
dealer, owner for the past sixty
days, has sold the factory proper
to Brad Smith and associates,
a some of whom are understood to
be local and some out of town. '1Ir.
Smith is general manager of Ro-
bert Bell Industries Limited, but
this firm is said not to be involv-
ed in the deal,
The brick 1011)40 north of the
factory has been bought by 72. S.
Box, The house was the factory
office at one time hut Inas been
occupied as' a residence for a num-
ber of years,
The vacant property on the
south side of Market street 1tae
passed through several hands in
the last few days,
Waxman sold the land,
which was a lumber yard in the
earlter days, 'to Harold Jackson.
Half an hour later Mr. Jackson
disposed of it to Joseph T. Hugill,
contractor, who has been using a
storage shed on the lot.
It is said that only a couple of
hours later Mr. Hugill sold the
major portion of the lot to Gamy
Kelly of Stratford for a bowling
alley site.
Possession will be given on
May Ist.
Early this weer( Dor. Smith
stated no announcement could be
made yet about the future use of
the factory, beyond that comb -us -
tion equipment might be manu-
factured It is understood a U. S.
firm is involved.
Originally the Broadfoot & Box
furniture factory, the plant later
was owned by the Canada Furni-
ture Manufacturers, who made
wooden office equipment. When
steel largely replaced wood for
office furniture, the plant was
closed about 25 years ago. Later
the Hesky Flax Co: owned it and
at one time there was talk of an
extensive linen industry develop-
ing.
In more recent years the Ont-
ario Textile Co. made toys, and a
plastics firm occupied past of the
building.
At present the east end is occu-
pied by Genesee Manufacturing.
The town of. Seaforth has part of
it rented for storing machinery',
and feed firms are using part of
the main building for storage
Confirmation of rumors of the
sale of the boiler factory of the
Robert Bell Industries to Toronto
interests was not available this
weer:.
Buys Land for
Bowling Alley
lir. Gary Kelly of Stratford ME
purchased the vacant lot at the
corner of Market and Jarvis Sts.,
and plans to start construction
soon on a building tor a bowling
alley. Mr. Kelly expects to have
It ready by early fall.
The lot Inas 127 feet frontage on
Market Street and 114 feet on
Jarvis Street. The land was pur-
chased from Joseph E. Hugill
who hacl previously purchased the
whole corner property from Louis
Waxman.
The bowling alley building will
be 00 x 120 feet, of cement block
and stone, and will have six al-
leys.
A portion -o'f this property at
one time was part of the old Sea -
forth market square where the
original town hall was located.
Mr. Kelly received approval Pram
Seaforth town council at the April
meeting last week for erecting a
bowling alley.

in Town Hall, Seaforth Wednes-
day night, The meeting •opened
with previous minutes being read
and adopted. Carl Dalton reported
for committees that were appoint-
ee) to approach councils on having
grants discontinued and Ievying
system and voluntary requisition
of dues collected in taxes be in-
stituted, There was mixed feeling
in councils who thought it less
work to give a. grant. The union
feels it should have the privilege
to - pay whaaevet' way Ile wishes.
Variety program was well receiv-
ed and very successful 13111 80
