Area Pioneers' Cooperation
Built Up Canada: Gardiner
Hon. James G. Gardiner, Can
ada’s minister of agriculture,
believes the co-operative spirit of
the pioneers in this section of On
tario has “done the best job I
know of, of building up Canada.”
Returning to his birthplace at
Farquhar to speak to mutual in
surance companies, Mr. Gardiner
said that the co-operation exem
plified by wood-splitting
barn-raising bees of years
has “meant a great deal to
country.”
This area has contributed
countless professional men
leaders to the country,
Gardiner said, and farmers
sacrificed personal wealth
pleasure to send their children
school or to set them up
business.
“You’ve done a tremendous job
for Canada,” the minister said.
Speaking as a guest of the
I’sborne and Hibbert Mutual Fire
Insurance Company, of which his
grandfather was the first presi
dent, Mr. Gardiner revealed a
vivid memory of his birthplace
as he reminisced about early life.
He recalled that the hall in
which, the meeting was held was

grandfather, Robert

He told his audience
old elieese factory which farmers
of the area had moved to the
Farquhar corner and covered
with brick. That was the site of
the original meeting of the Us-
borne and Hibbert company.
“The thing that I remember
most about this district is that
whenever they wanted wood cut,
they had a wood-cutting bee;
whenever someone wanted to
build a new barn, the men staged
a barn-raising bee. When they
wanted to gravel the roads, the

“Co-operation was
thing which made it
cut down the forest,
roads and build up
munity.”
Mr. Gardiner said that one of
the prominent founders of the
Wawanesa Insurance Company,
of Alberta, the largest mutual
company in Canada, was an
Allison man "who got his ideas
from this section of the country”
and who used to spend many
nights 'during his travels in the
west reminiscing with friends
who came from the-same area.

B. W. F. Beavers, ofr Exeter,
former proprietor of the Farquhar
General Store, introduced the
agriculture minister whom he has
known “since he was a barefoot
boy.”
Mr. Beavers said “his mother
was one of the finest and most
upright women I have ever known
and was a very dear friend or
our family. They lived on a farm
and came through, many hard
ships but her trust was always
in God and in this way she raised

The Editor,

Dear Sir:
At a meeting of Huron Pres
bytery of the United Church of
Canada, I was instructed to write
to the organizations concerned,
and to t'he editors of the news
papers circulating in the Grand
Bend district 'informing them
that Huron Presbytery was great
ly shocked and disturbed over
the organized desecration of the
Lord’s Day that was occasioned
by the Labour Day celebration
in Grand Bend_ on Sunday, Sep-'
tember
It is
church
munity
and obedience of .His will is the
only lasting foundation upon
which to build a civilization.
Huron Presbytery urges that
when future events of this kind
are planned a more far-sighted
and mature view be taken by
those concerned so that eternal
things shall not again be treated
lightly in order that some tem
porary material advantage may be
gained. If such a view is taken
we have every confidence that
the Lord’s Day will be protected
against a recurrence of the
shocking and 'highly organized
desecration that occurred on
Sunday, September 5th, 1954.
Sincerely yours,
W. C. Parrott,
Secretary, Huron Presbytery.

Re: Your Editorial “Huron
Industrial Board,” Oct. 14
Dear Sir:
I am very much surprised re
garding the contents of your
article. Would yon kindly let nie
know the address of the Huron
Industrial Promotion Board?
I would like to have a close
look at the pamphlets you are
mentioning.
From my own personal knowl
edge I am aware that at least a
dozen
would like to move to Canada or
rather Ontario.
If a complete transfer of these
industries would not be possible
at once at least a -branch would
be desirable.
Being an Immigrant from
Germany from only recent years
I know from first hand what dif
ficulties are arising if somebody
considers a transfer to Canada.
I am pretty sure that Huron
County would gain some worth

would be made.
