The large modern station., sited well back on a commodious lot, recognizes too the increasing volume of traffic which .is flowing through Seaforth on No. 8 High- way, Mr. Scott added. The station is on Goderich St, at the, corner of East William. The new station, • too, marks a milestone in the history of Ross Scott Limited. It is the fortieth outlet served by the Scott organ-' ization, who are Sunoco distribu- tors for the area. Organized in 1930 by Mr. Scott, the firm at that time operated one truck and one outlet, which was Mr. Scott's own business at Bruce - field. In the years since, the dis- tribution has been extended to in- clude all of Huron County and por- tions of Lambton, Perth and Mid- dlesex Counties. Today a fleet of five large trucks, with a carrying capacity of 86,000 gallons of gaso- line, serve the forty outlets. In addition, the distributors serve many district farmers with their fuel requireinents, as well as handling a large volume of fuel oil business. The period since the firm com- menced business has seen many changes in the -manner in which gasoline is handled. When Mr. Scott first entered the business, all gasoline was brought in by rail. Later on, tank truck shipments were received from Hamilton. To- day all gasoline is brought in by trucks owned by the company and which comes by the pipeline to London and is picked up there. The company now employs a .staff of ten 'men.. In 1954 the business' was incorporated. Associated Wath Mr. Scott in the management of the company is his son, Ken Scott.

Congratulations SUNOCO SERVICE On Your Carefree, Economical Heating The New Seaforth Sunoco Service Station has installed GAR WOOD AUTOMATIC HEATING — It's Dependable — It's Economical — It's Specialized Heating Only GAR WOOD has it and here's how it works . . . Only in a Gar Wood furnace are the super heated combustion gases forced DOWN- WARD from the top of the fire -box. Then, through a row of big steel tubes known as the ECONOMIZER. Incoming cool air passing over the vast outside area of these tubes extracts an immense bonus of heat from the gases. Air, preheated by this ECONOMIZER. flows smoothly upwatds over ALL the outer surface of the big "tear- drop" fire -box. With a Gar Wood, your building gets the maximum heat your furnace produces. Only the minimum heat for efficient furnace operations is permitted to reach the chimney. Made in Canada by Engineering industries Co.
