M sten EC,:chine for Modern Farmers
A recent survey showed the owners of self-
propelled combines in Western Canada to
be divided like this:
6 1.9 % were owners of Massey -Harris
..
38.1% were owners of other makes
This is a very significant fact. Farmers don't
choose their machines by whim or fancy.
Such a high preference for Massey -Harris is
proof beyond doubt that Massey -Harris
combines give them the best all-round
performance ... in fast harvesting, clean
threshing, freedom from field delays, low
cost of operation.
If you were to visit the Massey -Harris
combine factory and watch the long train -
TORONTO
REGINA
loads of combines pulling out of the railway
siding, you would see something else that is
noteworthy. Many of these train -loads are
destined for United States points, because
Massey -Harris combines, are as popular in
Kansas, Texas and the Dakotas as they are
in the Canadian West.
And if you observed further, you would
find many carloads destined for far -away
countries like Argentine, India, Turkey,
Tanganyika. All over the world, the
Massey -Harris self-propelled combine is
known and recognized as the master mach-
ine for modern farmers. Wherever you
find modern agriculture, you find Massey -
Harris combines in use and in demand.

HANDS IN TRAINING .:. FOR ONTARIO
t
Learning to Make Plastics
IN Ontario the wheels of industry turn for the benefit of every single
one of us. Our lathes, dynamos, drill presses, farm combines, tractors,
business machines, etc. are producing goods and services which earn
dollars. These dollars provide food, clothing, medical care and other
necessities which contribute to our security and high standard of living.
Every single one of us, therefore, has a 'very personal interest in the flow
of a steady supply of trained workers to industrial plants. These workers
will operate machines which are important to our way of life.
We should appreciate, then, the co-operative efforts of government,
industry and labour in the field of employee. training. In schools and in
factories our workers, young and old, are given the opportunity to develop
new and specific skills •in every field of business and industrial activity.
For instance, as in the pictures shown hese, every effort of Ontario's
newly -skilled plastics workers will mean better plastic products — will
help to make Ontario a finer place in which to live and work.

MORE PARKS NEEDED
ALONG LAKE SHORE
A recent trip along the northerly
part of the west shore of Lake
Huron from Mackinac to Bay City
reveals a considerable difference
from conditions on the east side
along the Canadian bluewater route.
One of the most noticeable differ-
ences is that, an the west side, the
lake can be seen from most or the
road. Much of the road runs along
the water's edge, and where it
swings away from the lake there are
many excellent views.
The Michigan roadway along the
lake tuns through evergreen bush
growing on sand, and large areas of it
have been designated as government
forest, which are like reservations,
extending for fifty miles or so.
To Canadian motorists passing
casually along the road it would
seem that access is readily available
to the shore. There are many places
they can park along the roadside and
go pieknicking or swimming at the
lakeside.
This is considerably different from
conditions along the Canadian side.
From Port Franks to Tobermory it is
difficult for even Iocal motorists fam-
iliar with the districtto find access
to the lake shore, except at town or
villages, with a few exceptions.
One suggestion that has been made
for improving conditions on the Can -
adieu side. is that all the concession
roads leading from the highway to
the lake should be opened up. Many
of them are fenced off at present.
Others that are open have cottages
squatting on the right of way or near
it. Cottagers sometimes will put an
unauthorized "road -closed" sign on a
concession road to discourage trans-
ient visitors.
If readily available and pleasant
access is made available from the
highway to the lake it will be an en-
couragement to the tourist to sfay in
the district instead of passing quickly
on to some other area in search of a
suitable place.
It would also encourage the build-
ing' of far more cottages in' the area.
People would feel that its was not
necessary to have a lakefront location
in order to gain access to the lake,
and will gradually establish whole
colonies of summer residences ex-
tending back from the lake.
That the present time offers an
excellent opportunity for tuakhi'
broad provision for the future use of
the lake front, is tate feeling of :nutty
residents of Western Ontario. The
Landon Free Press recently publish-
ed a repot on a survey It has made
along the lake, as follows, tinder tate

two large public parks would be
weleomed as assets in the promotion
of the Lake Huron shore as a holiday
ground for Western Ontario residents
as well as American tourists.
Sales to private owners ase at a
peak and if they continue the entire
shore may soon be inaccessible to
the general public. Signs reading
"No Thoroughfare,” "Private," "No
Trespassing," will appear on every
side as families seek even a day's
outing by the side of the lake.
The park at Sarnia, and the pro-
vincial trailer park at Ipperwash, are
meeting this need so far as their
facilities permit. But larger areas are
needed to augment these if the public
is to be assured of a place on the
shore.
'We would like to see park lands
developed," Carl Manore, secretary
of the Bluewater Association, said.
The association is active in develop-
ing roads and encouraging a greater
use of the land bordering the lake.
The association particularly is inter-
ested in acquainting Americans of the
holiday opportunities there.
The publle park idea has been
discussed for several years but there
has 'been little action, Mr. Manore
commented. He pointed out that re-
cently Lantbton County Council, view-
ing the present trend, recommended
that land be set aside for park pur-
poses.
Those interviewed by The Free
Press believe that establishnnent of
parks would mean an increase in

they are interested too to seeing the
native population take a greater share
in the holiday activities. '
'Thera is no reason why the two
should not, go together,' one said.
"Good park sites could be developed .
along rivers and streams as well as
on the lake shore,"
The five-day week :takes it pos-
sible for many wore families to get
away from town and city. for a week
end. The public park question in the
bluewater area should be of interest
to them, one official said. And an
interested public is required if action
and results are to be achieved.
