The area, known as Klondyke Gardens, was formerly the private duck­ hunting reserve of a wealthy doctor. He has subdivided al­ most half of 7,000-acre holding, —Centra) Press Canadian and has been selling it in lots to new Canadians, for the past seven years. The Klondyke has proven a gold mine of top-grade vegetables to the 25 farmers from Holland and Belgium. After draining and clearing the land, they have averaged a gross in­ come of $10,000 from market ; produce. Next year they plan a $1000,000 crop. Rev. K.

The East Wawanosh Federation held its annual meeting and banquet in the Blyth Memorial Hall on Wed­ nesday evening, when about 200 en­ joyed a bountiful repast provided by two of the Blyth church groups.

This was followed with a sing-song led by Bob Carbert of CKNX, with Mrs. George Johnston supplying the music. L. E.

STREETLIGHTS VIS. ORION The • Printed Word was writing about stars, and how the people in Toronto, blinded by neon signs, never see the heavens in their diamond- studded glory. "How different in the country,” The Printed Word muses, "the villages and small towns! When the visitor from the city stops his car some evening before a friend’s place on a street in a small town, what a vast change awaits- him out under the stars! ‘There is Orion. I haven’t seen the old fellow since last Christmas. And the Seven Sisters. Greetings, you whirl of scarved maid­ ens that humans have gazed at these thousands of years, except recently’.’’ Then he steps from his car to the unlighted street, stumbles on the side­ walk, falls into the shrubbery on the other side, runs into a tree,* cusses old Orion, and longs for the lights of Toronto. AROUND OUR HOUSE By Bill and Eileen Lovett Once again Bill and I are reminded that fall is our very favourite season. Picture us these autumn Saturdays raking leaves and generally tidying up the garden and toward the end of the day, standing around a bon­ fire of burning brush, sipping steam­ ing cups of chocolate spiked with a touch of nutmeg. 0-0-0 Bill’s thought for the day is this— We are allowed these heavenly fall days to prepare for the stern realities of winter, It’s Bill’s job to get the car ready for the cold weather, which jneans a complete check of brakes, tires, exhaust (remember, winter driv­ ing usually means the windows of the car are closed) and, of course, put- ing in the anti-freeze. Did you know that the amount of heat given off by a car’s cQqlipg system during heavy driving is enough to heat a six room house, so Bill says! That’s why only the best all-winter type anti-freeze which prevents rust and Will not boil away, will give your car the protec­ tion it needs. 0-0-0 Bill took the trouble this year to separate the gladioli bulbs by color, laying them on slotted trays to air dry away from heat and moisture. Next year we’ll have our own kaleidoscope of color. 0-0-0 You can perk up your nylon petti­ coats by dipping in a heavy starch solution. Apply this, also, to' a limp crinoline and let it drip dry. This way thq hem will regain the necessary fullness and stiffness. 0-0-0 Again'a safety note. One of our good neighbors has made a house to house canvass of our street urging all of us to park our cars in the driveway and not at the curb. It’s much safer for oyr youngsters. And now that it’s getting dark so early every child should have a good quality flashlight and be carefully instructed, when out after dark, to walk on the left-hand side of the road and to use this flash­ light. 0-0-0 For the very young . . . Keep the children's shoelaces even and in place by tying a knot in the middle of each before threading into shoes. . 0-0-0 Fabric flowers will remain “fresh” looking longer if you pack them on an old belt with a clip-type clothes pin. Suspend the belt from a cup hook on your closet door. / Use Advance=Times Classified Ads for Results WHILE HE’S HERE SEE HIM ABOUT THE TRADES TRAINING AND CAREER OPPORTUNITIES OPEN TO YOU IN CANADA’S AIR FORCE will be in WINGHAM at the Town Hall THURSDAY NOVEMBER 24 From Noon to 8 p.m. Illlgf 'Rev. Krug, of (Belgrave, gave a very interesting aild informative address, stressing the necessity of the older and longer developed areas to tell their stories. He Stated that the need for organizations, in township, church, school affairs, political affairs and 4-H club work has led through the years to a highly efficient and organ­ ized community as witnessed in the success of the recent gathering for the community ‘banquet. He said that advertising was insurance, not an add­ ed cost, and that the community should organize for public relations as cities and other parts of the coun­ try do not realize how these things are done or how this efficiency is acquired; neither do they Realize the benefit that is accrued from it. Com­ paring this community with others in other continents, he stressed the greatness of a responsible community where all help to pull together to achieve worthwhile ends. Elmer Ire­ land thanked the speaker. Mr. W. Shortreed spoke of the Fed­ eration of Huron, and of the provin­ cial and dominion federations, ex­ plaining the work carried on for the betterment of the farming communi­ ties. He said that the cost of Wheat must come down 50c per bushel, be­ fore the price of bread could be lower­ ed one cent. Gordon Elliott moved a vote of thanks to the ladies who pro­ vided the supper and Reeve Orval Taylor was in charge of the election of officers. The results of the election are as follows: Past president, John Currie; presi­ dent, Chas. Robinson; 1st vice-presi­ dent, Wm. Gow. The former dlrbdtors were re-elected with the exception Of Wm. Gow, Oliver Anderson being ap­ pointed in his place and Ed Smythe will replace Roy Pattison. The secretary-treasurer, Simon Cal­ lahan, was accorded a vote of appre­ ciation for his work since the inaugu­ ration of the federation and the meet­ ing closed with the singing of "O Canada", All under one roof A branch of a chartered bank is much more than the best place to keep your savings.
