p'""' "' 111""'At present, a.ecording to this
chapter, there are many minor-
ity groups in Canada, whilst for-
merly there were considered on-
ly those of Jews, Negroes and
Orientals. Our attitude towards
these and our treatment of them
will be very important in their
integration into Canadian life.
Some basic questions in regard
to the accomplishment or this
face us. Since only one half or
the immigrants enter the labor
three, says the writer, leaving
one half as consumers, who cre-
ate demands and thus jobs, and,
since also here in Canada Sana-
toria etre being closed because or
lack of patients, our doors
should he wider opened to others
than those with a craft, skill or
profession or in perfect health.
The ehereh must give leadership
along moral and ethical lines
and the doors of our Christian
hones should be opened to the
immigrants, ants where
they should
rceeive et hearty welcome. The

When the results were announ-
ced, first prize went to John

to \Veiling •Ir, Justin, of Halton;
and third to 'Wilbert W, Roving -
ton of Middlesex County,
Among the readers who
thoughtfully scrutinized the prize
plans were the Hugill family, who
lived near Seaforth. The faintly

John, who had taken the land

Of the seven children, five had
been lured away by the romance
of the California gold Push and
one son, Abraham, had stayed
home to take over the family
farm.
Abraham had been interested
In the Farmer's Advocate compe-
titien, and had been favorably
impressed by the second prize
house, Ho saved the plans, and In
1909 built his hone from a design
based on Mr. Justin's house (es-
timated cost about $2000).
Although Abraham had only
two children, Jonathon and Flor-
ence, his house had five upstairs
bedrooms but he built tar
sightedly, for when Jonathon
married and eventually took over
the big house trom his father,
there were ten little Hugills to
fill it to overiiowing. Now that
the family has grown up, there
etre dozens of grandchildren—and
by now, a few great-grandchildren
—to give it a lived-in feeling
when they visit.
A house that has stood up to
arty -three years of vigorous liv-
ing has been thoroughly tested.
The only basic change that the
Hugills made in that time was to
put in an outdoor cellar entrance.
Originally it had been necessary
to go 311100gh the kitchen to get
down cellar; this meant muddy
boots and stable smells tracked
through the clean kitchen—al-
ways a grievance to the house-
wife. The new entrance was, how-
ever easily installed, and the
cellar has washing facilities,
places for outdoor clothes and
heavy boots.
"One thing my rather always
intended to do,” recalls Mr.
I-Iugill; "was put in a derail -
waiter. That was to save stair -
climbing for my mother. But he
never did get it done, and when
refrigerators cause in, mother
didn't care about a dumb -waiter
anyway,
Otherwise there simply didn't
Seem to be a thing that could be
improved. It's a perfect house for
living in."
The Hugill home, on No. 8
Highway west of Seaforth, is a
large red brick house, standing
well back from the road in the
midst or a 100 -acre farm. It has
been carefully maintained, and
everything on the place is in im-
maculate order,

Hugill also 000103edd a silo -build-

feasible for a man with six sons.
Several of the boys are still ac-
tive in this business; others are
farming on their own acreages.
Mr. Hugill, although semi -retired,
still supervises the silo building
operations.
The house itself has ten large
rooms, as well as a full attic and
cellar. Downstairs, the Plans pro-
vided for a large sunny kitchen,
with a pantry which is larger
than many modern kitchens. A
mammoth dining -room easily ac-
commodates the family, even now
when it includes 25 grandchildren

ren. The Hugills' plans included
