Another Canadjana to be placed
on the 'library shelves is
The Marquis Wheat Family
or the story of William. Saunders
and His Five Sons written by
Miss Elsie Pomeroy, who wrote
the biography of Sir Charles G.
D. Roberts in 1943."She was born
at Fullarton, Ontario and attend
ed Mitchell High School and
Teacher’s College at. Stratford.
After teaching three and a half
years in St. Thomas she joined
the staff of the Toronto public
schools in 1914 where she re
mained until her retirement in
1949.
The five Saunders brothers,
all born in London, Ontario
achieved a large measure of
distinction in Various fields—
in- several branches of science;
in education and in literature
but pride in the achievements
of their father, William Saun
ders, the founder of the family
must necessarily be greater.
For William Saunders was the
pioneer. ■
He arrived.in London with his
parents one month before his
thirteenth birthday. He had no,
formal’education yet thirty years
later and due entirely to his
own efforts this typical pioneer
was regarded as the foremost
authority in Canada on all
matters pertaining to agriculture
and horticulture, In 1884 when
the Dominion Government con
sidered the establishment of Ex
perimental Farms in Canada
similar to those in the United
States it was William Saunders
who was requested to obtain
the necessary information and
was appointed first Director of
Experimental Farms.
With his third son, Charles,
he collaborated in the produc
tion of Marquis wheat the An
swer to the need of the Can
adian West. For Canada it had
supreme practical value.
It was Charles who brought
world wide distinction to the
family name but each of the
brothel’s did valuable Work. in
his own special field.

"It's really widefTTl more
' shoulder-room than ever!”,,
"So easy to get in and

TAKE THE MEASURE OF FORD FOR POWER AND
PERFORMANCE! You can have a Silver Anniversary
V-8 up to 245-Hp., with the blazing power that has
always characterized the world's most famous V-8 ., J
and along with it you’ll get the very newest engineering
advancements from the world’s most experienced V-8
builder! If you prefer a Six, you can have Canada's
liveliest, thriftiest and most powerful—the road-proved
Mileage Maker Six, available in a wide range of models.
"Whichever you choose, you’ll take the measure of them

The new kind of Ford for ’57 takes, the measure of the whole field ...
and the facts and figures prove it! It’s the longest car in its field—with j
over 207 sleek, speed-filled inches from bumper to bumper! It’s wide
enough to hold six brawny football players, with plenty of room for
broad shoulders and long legs! It’s a mere 4 2/j feet from tread to rooftop
.. so low that two men can easily shake hands over the roof... yet
there’s hat-wearing headroom inside! It’s the big car of its field, too .. J ‘
, a solid car, a heavy car. Some models are as much as 200 pounds heavier
than last year!'The new miracle of engineering called the "Inner Ford”,
embodies a whole new concept of frame and body construction- ♦ .
with more brawn and muscle, more strength and rigidity, than any
competitive car can offer you! Ford’s amazing Even-Keel ride stands
alone for comfort, handling ease and safety! Any way you look at it,
Ford takes the measure of them all—drive it and get the proof!
See,compare, be convinced!
