WINGHAM, ONT., THURSDAY JULY 22nd, 1926 1 FROM WINGHAM TO WINNIPEG Two Wingham Residents Passed BY MOTOR •To Wingbarn Advance -Times ' Dear Mr, Smith: As Mr. and Mrs. Maguire, Mr. . Brandon an myself are on a motor , tip through' the Canadian, West, 1 • :thought I would let you know how 'nye are -enjoying the drive. We left Belgrave, Tuesday morn- ing, July 6th at 7.30. We drove to Sarnia arriving.there at 11.15 and got in line with about eeventy cars ahead • df us to get on We Ferry for Port • Heron. After two boat loads got , away we got on the 'third and when we got off at Port Huron we decided e 1-o take. the north trail for Winnipeg. Ve siarted for Flint and Saginaw, -/es .)0th very flourishing places, especial- ly Saginaw, which .had very wide streets. •We drove over five miles from when we entered one/side till ' wevleft it at the other. We then took thetoad for the Straits of Mackinaw, but after driving.255 mile.s we stopp- • ed at a very nice place called Stand- • ish and had a, good night's rest. We arose early the next Morning, Wed- nesday and sterted off at six o'clock, ,driving thirty miles before breakfast. . •After breakfast we continued on our joinney to the Straits, a distance of 160 miles, and arrived at 3.30, but had to wait forty five minutes for the , boat, .getting in fourth place. We were not- alone in getting on the ,boat, as there were forty cars, ' a -trailer and a motorcycle on and still ,there was room, but they say they can place fifty-seven oars on the ....boat. We 'hada lovely sail of an ;hour on the boat and after leaving Ithe bbat at St. Ignace, we started for ,Manastique, ninety-four miles away. 1We just went seventy mile and pull- ed in for the night. Next morning 'we :got •up and drove to Exa,naba, ewhere we stopped for three liburs and Tallied on some old Belgrave friends, Mr. andtMrs. Thos. Wilkinson. It is a great lumber country and such piles of lumber, I never saw. • We drove 720 miles in Michigan ) and found the roads realegood a great ' deal of pavement and all fairly hard ,enrface. One. would wonder where they got the money to build the roads for outside the towns and cities I would say the frontage tax on 'the eevliele 720 miles would not build ten im.des of the road, such as they have. It is the most barren I drive I ever rto4, Mountains and red clay. They 'lied a very heavy rain on Thursday and that red clay mud made a sorry .looking sight of our car. We •then .came into *Wisconsin,' where there is .some fair timber, but a lot of poor land, and roads not very good. We 'were nof long in passing into Minne- esota, where the ,country looked .1set- ;ter, but very few good farm buildings :and after the rain the roads were not • good. When, We got within a couple • .of miles of Deluth, we hacl our first ,car trouble, had picked up a iiail and had to change a tire in the stickiest , antul I ever tramped in, ' ' After spending a 'couple of hours in-Deluth, we drove to a small town • about 45 miles from Emmerson on „the 'border, where we stayed over might as we had driven 320 miles that: eelay. ' ,We were still no miles ,from j"Winnipeg, which we drove Sunday f. ,reaching here at 1 p. m, after a drive , of 1365 miles. We are spending e few days here, before going on to 'Brandon and, points West. With the exceptiori of Thursday be- ing wet, we had a delightful drive and are all feeling fine. Your S respectfully; j. A. Brandon. Proclamation! • I hereby proclaim Monday, August • 2nd., 1926, as Wingham's Civic Hol- " iday and call upon all citizens to gov- •, ern themselves ancordingly. , Signed; ,•,: Thos.

' , • ' r, 4.0,4 ' Suddenly Away Last Week A' very sudden call came to Alia, Wesley McEvers on Wednesday .af- ternoon last, July f4theif Deceased la- dy' was in her rtsual health and went Lor a motor drive to Culross with her daughter on Wednesday afternoon. While sitting in it chair at the home of her neice, Mrs. Thomas Donaldson, she quietly slipped away without any pain or suffering. 1. She was in her 7ist year and was born in Northum- berland County, near Coburg. Her libsband predeceased her -three years ago last February, She is';'airvived by one daughter, Miss Jennie and two adopted daughters, Cluistena Hender- son of Oshawa, and Narma McEvers' at homei The funeral was held from her let/ esidence, Shuter St., Wing - ham, on Saturday afternoon. to Wing - ham cemetery. Rev. M. M. Bennett of the United Church conducted the services. Among those from a dist- ance who attended the funeral were: Mr. Allen of Oshawa, Miss Baptist of Toronto, as well /as relatives from Teeswater, Lucknow and Kinlough. On Saturday, July r7th, there was laid to rest in the Wingham cemetery, one of the old time pioneers in the person of Mr. John L. Little of town, but for a long time a resident of Turnberry. He passed away on Thurs- day, after a very brief illness. (Deceased was born in Stirling, Scot- land, 8r 'years ago. ,• His love for the old land was strong, any reference to "the land of the hea,ther" always tou- ched a tender spot in his affections At the age of 4 years along with his parents, brothers and sisters, they sailed for Canada arriving at the town of • Goderich, after staying there a short time in the fall of 1869, they thought of moving to Turnberry, go- ing by way of Zetland, which at that. time was a thriving village • while Wingham hadn't even a place on the map. On the way their wagon got stuck in a lonely place in the woods, while they wcre away getting help some bears with an inquisitive turn of mind found it out, and after scatter- ing things around, old briiin found cake of , tallow, intended for making candles (this Was before the days of elebtric light or even coal oil), he must have found it a delicious naorsel for he didnt leave anything to make light on the subject. They first settled the gth con, Turnberry, but finally • took • up a homestead of 200 acres on the bound- ary of Culross. Here they lived for many years, going "through all the te,rdships of pioneer life in the back - Woods. , Deceased was a member of the Turnberry council in the early days. Fri wife predeceased Van sixteen years ago. A brother and two sisters are still living, Peter of Chicago, Miss Bella Of Nebraska, and Mrs. McNae- ghton of Sask." He leaves a fa.mily of four to mourn his loss, viz: Mrs. J. Cueneyvvorth, Toronto, George of Smith Falls, Bert of Toronto, Miss Hazel at home. • • Rev. De. Perrie came from Bruce Beach to take the funeral services which was attended by a large num- ber of people in the community. Am - Zing those_ from a distance who were at the funeral were Mr. and Mr. Reid Torrance and Mrs. Elliott of Porters Bill, Mrs, Sloan' of Blyth, and Mr. Peter Walker a London.

MacEevan, Secretary. Looking Up War Veterans •/ Mr. a. Brooks, Dominion Circula- tion Manager for the -Grand Army of United Veterans, is in Wingham in connection with his work of cleaning up all just claims of needy veterans. Mr. Brooks says these are a great many cases that come to his atten- tion all over Ontario, which appear to have thus far been overlooked, and many are very needy and must get at- tention. Mr. Brooks is himself a re- turned man who came beet.: gassed and blinded on crutches. He had an income to live on or his would have been a needy case. 1 -le and a couple of assistants are staying at the Brun- swick Hotel for, a few days, • Several Lodges Overlooked In ott4fitiprief write-up in the last is- sue of 'The Advance -Times of the Or- ange celebration at Clinton, we over- looked the mention of several of the very,best lodges, which were present; and we wish to offer an apology for the .oversight We made arrange- ments with it reporter for several oth- er papers, and he willingly accepted a fee for 1-4s serivbes. He took up a position .where all the "walk" had to pass and how he missed so many is more than we can understand, For instance Orange Hill, Lakelet, Ford- wicl and Gorrie ledges in Howick, were conipletely overlooked in the re- port'. Aud just how a young unmar- ried man could heglect to put the na- mes of the ladies lodges from Foid- wich, Beige -ye and, Blyth on list is beydnd our comprehension. , A Successful Tea • We clip the following from the Ed- monton Journal as we knew it will be of interest to many of our readers. "Gratifying , indeed wai the result of a tea given by Miss Edith Peddle, McQueen Institute Missionary, last Thursday afternoon and evenieg, itt the mission home, 9562 103A Menne, The tea was given with • it view to securing futids to send a girl to the camp, and was entirely suc- cessful. . 'Many visitors showed their inter- est by calling and the cottage which has reeently been tedeconted, was greatly admired. Mrs. W. Yule and Mrs. A, C. Fartell presided over the ten table in the afterhoon, and were essisted by Mrs, A. C., Stewart artd, Mrs, Kenneth Wilson. Mrs, Jas. Mc- Arthur :assisted Miss Peddle with the arrangemerns. In the evening IV/Ise Coutie poured tee and Miss Benham and Miss Bruce served. ivLis Battrick played'several pleasing piano solos: TO THE LIBERAL CONSERVA- TIVES OF NORTH HURON Nine months ago I was your candi- date in the Federal Election, When the fight was over everyone knew that neither party could carry on and the word was sent out that this battle being indecisive, had to be fought over a- gain. We were asked to get ready and keep ready. This I did confid- ently expecting that, as it was a mat- ter of fighting the seine election over a:gain, I would have no oppositien for renomination. Now ,that we have finished the hard fighting to stem the inroads of the so called Progressive Army into our own Party, and, are about to reach out for victory, it appears there are .several ready to pluck the fruit from the tree which we have digged abeut, watered, nourished and brought to maturity. If the writer was the right candi- date to select to engage in an unfin- ished battle last autumn .surely he should be permitted to finish the fight if he showed fair strength. We there- fore submit for your consideration the two following proofs. The vote accorded me in Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-five was over "One Thousand One Hundred end Fifty" more than given me in Nine- teen Hundred and Twenty -One. That shows a growing strength which I have reason to believe is still grow- ing. Secondly --a friendly comparison with no ulterior motive—save to show how my vote stood in each townshiP, village and town with two ideal can- didates, who were winners in the On- tario House. Mr. Joynt's vote exceed- ed mine as follows: Ashfield, 80; W. Wawanosh, 102; E. Wawanosh, 14; vote exceeded Mr. Joynt's as fol- lows: Wingham, n29; Turnberry, .109; Morris, 63; Blyth, 48; Wroxeter, 16; Howick, 78. That is 347 more votes were given. me in Me. joynt's riding than were given him. Mr. Wiglet vote exceeded mine as follows: God- erich, 59; Colborne, 29; My vote ex- ceeded Mr. Wigle's as follows: Grey, 98; Brussels', ze. That, is 23 more votes were given me than to Mr. Wi- gle. Therefore in the Federal riding my vote was 370 more, notwithstand- ing the 'home pulls' of two candidates against my one. As many candidates for the Nom- inatiori are prosecuting a vigorous canvas, I simply take this opportunity to refute arguments against my can- didature. I have no desire to unduly press myclaim to reap' the fruit of my past labors, because, it always has Been, that many are anxious to reap where they have not sown. I simply ask that each delegate attend the Convention as a free woinan, and, a free man, (not as a slave doing the bidding of others), and after hearing the candiates make his or her own mind up and vote accordingly. If the decision is.against me there will be no murmur or complaint from me, I will cheerfully abide by that decision. Faithfully yours, Geo. Spotton, Preached. in St Andrews At the Presbyterian church on Sun- day last, the Rev. McCullough of Kin- cardine, preached both morning and evening. The congregations at both services were • deeply impressed not only with the message the speaker de- livered but also by the able manner with which he dealt with the all im- portant subjects of his • discourses. Many who stayed at liBme or took it holiday regret their being absent.'
