Charles MacNaughton announced last week that arrangements are being completed for the provision of flying services at Centralia Industrial Park. A new firm to be incorporated by district businessmen under Huron Air Parks Limited will provide radio and weather reporting services, commercial air transportation and flying instruction and aircraft sales and servicing out of a new hangar to be erected on the former airforce base. Six highly skilled persons will be employed when the service opens, with anticipated expansion to 10 employees within the first year. In the Wingham Advance-Times we see where the Wingham and District Hospital has bee n designated by two universities, Western and McMaster, for special edu- cational purposes, according to an announcement made by the hospital ad- ministrator, Mrs. I. E. Morrey. Mr. Gil Shepherd of Newmarket has joined the editorial staff of the Wingham Ad- vance-Times. Proposed capital projects for 1971 are $154,570 in a report from St. Marys council to the St. Marys Journal-Argus. According to the Mitchell Advocate ,,Doc " Cruikshank left Mitchell for Wingham where he opened a radio repair shop in 1925. There he developed an amateur station CKNX into one of Can- ada's first radio stations. In 1955 the station was developed for television. Now, in 1970, CFPL, London, has purchased CKNX subject to the ap- proval of the Canadian-Radio-Television Commission which will be dealt with at the February meeting. Bill Cardwell, president of the Mitchell Legion was presented with a $2,000 cheque by Mrs. Verna Hube of the Ladies' Auxiliary.

Mr. Dixon was host to the employees at his home for the annual Christmas party.

Ar- rangements for the special night were made by Douglas Armstrong, chairman of the progra m committee. Mr. and Mrs. Menno Martin of Stanley observed their 50th wedding anniversary recently. In the Milverton Sun we note hon- orary life memberships in the North Mornington Church were presented to Mrs. John Gray and her sister, Mrs. Robert Steven. Both women have been members for over 45 years. The Mil- verton Youth Centre will open during the Christmas holiday season. William Witzel of the Brunner Nursing Home marked his 90th birthday on Sunday last. Fire destroyed the barn of Ian Shantz at Millbank recently. Damage totalled about $50,000 as fire razed a barn on the farm of Bruce Cobber, R.R. 3, Wel- lesley. Some 350 pigs, 60 tons of corn plus this seasons hay and grain crop. From the Clinton News-Record we note that John Guetter and his wife at R.R. 5, Clinton, are wondering whether their mixed-up little lamb is early or late. The youngster was born on November 20th, rather late for last spring and early for another but then just in time t o be a Christmas lamb. Former police Con- stable Albert Shaddick and his wife were special guests Monday night at a dinner for members of town council and their wives. The constable, who retired from the Clinton Police Department earlier this year after 15 years of service, was presented with a gift from the town by Mayor Symons.
