PAGE EIGHT WINGHAM ADVANCE-TIMES Thursday, August 29, 1940 • Yes! We’ll put Canada’s most popular the, the mile-eating "G-3” oil your ear, on the easiest terms you ever heard of. Prive in for details of our budget plan iOT THE BIG QUALITY GOOO/fEAR "fr3"" AT A THRIFTY PRICE!" WOMEN TO THE FQRE Newly organita Women’s Volun tary Service Corp Committee of the Canadian Red Cross Society have an* nounced a corps of Kliaki-unHormed Qualified women drivers, serving with out salary and trained to handle any thing on wheels including ambulances and trucks. The driving corp is being organized along the lines of the Women’s Transport.Service of Great Britain, Mrs, W< D. Chambers, Mont real, the first Canadian woman to win the Military Medal in the last war, has been appointed Commandant. In England with over 1,500,000 men in military service it is necessary that women take a prominent place in the jobs usually filled by men. In mot orized units of transportation the British tvomen are doing a wonderful service, of course they are in other activities as well. This new Canadian organization is being set up at a time when the need is not as great as it may be later, but now is the time to get ready and we are sure that the appeal of the committee will meet with a ready response. Canadian women going into this service will eb trained to handle trucks transport ing food and comforts, they will also be trained to handle ambulances. There is little that can be carried on in any field of activity without motor transportation facilities and the wom en who take up this task will no doubt have great opportunity for service. Applicants for transport service must be over 18 years of age. Sfc $ S|5 THE NEW MINISTER OF EDUCATION Globe and Mail Dr, Duncan McArthur, deputy min ister of education, has been appointed minister of education, succeeding the late Hon. Dr. Simpson. Premier Hep burn has made an excellent choice in Dr. McArthur, He is an educationist of note and in recent years has been responsible for many changes in the Ontario educational system, which are in step with modern progress. Dr. McArthur is a rare combination —an educationist who has had a bus iness training. He was for many years connected with London financial firms. It is not often that a man goes from business into teaching, but this I is what happened to Dr. McArthur. He left a responsible position with the London & Western Trusts to be come head of the department of his tory at Queens University, With his university background it to many Canadian citizens.

The only conclusion that the general public can come to is that inspections inside the enclosures were very poorly done and of course such should not be the ease.
