Most of you are probably asking yourselves, "Where in the world is that?" If you have a road map handy, locate Clinton, Bayfield, and Goderich. Then draw a circle encompassing those three points. In approximately the centre of the circle is Porter's Hill, At least it would be if surveyors were in the habit of recording it. Modern maps don't include the name of Porter's Hill. In fact;the weather-beaten sign, which adorned a corner post of the schoolyard, disappeared years ago.

On January 7, 1863, it became one of the few small settlements to achieve Post Office status. The first postma ter was - you guessed it - a member of the Porter family, Robert, The community lacked a significant period of growth or development. During its boom, Porter's Hill boasted a general store, a blacksmith's shop, one school, and a Temperance Hall. One by one the buildings were destroyed, lost their usefulness, or changed their roles. A southeast wind, for example, scattered the. boards of the Temperance Hall over the school grounds in 1903. As a result, the spirits either rose or fell depending upon the individual. Between 1863 and 1865, the general store opened. Today's consumer drools at a price list from the year 1900: a bottle of turpentine, 5 cents; 1 spool of thread, 4 cents; 1 plug of chewing tobacco, 7 cents; 25 lbs. of flour, 57 cents; 1 lb of butter, 14 cents; 1 dozen eggs, 5 cents; a broom 20 cents; 1 straw hat, 20 cents; 21/2 yards of of cretonne, 35 cents. In the same era, though, one week's labour earned only $10.00, A succession of proprietors owned the store, and business was plentiful.

The annual variety night was held at South Perth Centennial School, Friday evening with a good crowd attending. A program of skits, musical numbers, dances and a double quartette was much enjoyed. Mr. & Mrs, Gerald Brintnell and Scott spent last weekend in Trenton, Michigan where Scott was taking part in a hockey tournament. At breakfast, try slicing the meat and broil or fry it as a nice change. Cut it into cubes or strips and it becomes a delicious ad- dition to hearty main course salads and satisfying casseroles, Luncheon meats are suitable for all kinds of sandwiches from open-face to lofty club sand- wiches, As an appetizer arrange cubes of canned luncheon meats with pineapple chunks, olives, pickles or cheese on toothpicks. Some evening soon make the family feel like company by baking luncheon meat whole and dressing it up with a glaze. Try the Marmalade or Peach Glaze suggested by Food Advisory Services, Agriculture Canada. • Store Hours: 9-6 Daily Friday till 9 p.m. • Remember — Open • all day Wednesday ••••••••• Welcome neighbor Use • Your CHARGEX • • • 40 40 41 40 40 40 f/ Canned luncheon meats, commonly recognized as "the can with the key" offer a great variety of eating pleasure at mealtime. They fit in easily at breakfast, lunch,dinner and even in-between-meal snacks. In recent years different types of canned meat products have appeared on the market from baby food and stews to the solid- pack luncheon meats. The latter are made by pressing particles of cooked fresh or preserved meat into shape. When we turn the key to open the can, we can be assured of quality. They are manufactured according to Food and Drug Regulations which specify the kind of meat and limit the other ingredients which may be added. There are also regulations for the size and type of containers, labels and markings. Canned luncheon meats are ready-to-serve products so that they are convenient as well as economical.

Mr. Edwards is now employed as a mechanic at Snell Bros. Garage. burned in 1922, however, it was 110t rebuilt, Education, meanwhile, was administered in a one-room frame building. In 1918 the frame was covered with red bricks. Advanced education and new facilities closed the old schoolhouse by the mid-sixties, The dwelling, which has stood for over 100 years, now serves as a summer residence for a Chicago family. The Porter's Hill settlers at- tended two neighbouring chur- ches - Bethel Methodist and Bethany Presbyterian, Each was located one mile from the set- tlement, In modern times, that distance sounds trivial. But in the horse and cutter days of harsh winters and unplowed roads, the trip presented a challenge. Nevertheless the attendance was high. In 1927 the two congregations amalgamated. Together they erected an edifice south of the Porter's Hill store. Furnishings and materials from the original churches were used in the new one - Grace United, Enthusiasm was bountiful, and for many years the congregation thrived. Gradually, though, its mem- bership dwindled, Five years ago Grace United Church finally fell beneath the auctioneer's ham- mer, The building has since been renovated into an apartment. Throughout my studies of the pioneer days, I was impressed by the "feeling of community." The early settlers worked together to establish themselves and their surroundings. Now old neigh- bours leave and new neighbours soon arrive. Sometimes they move again before we become acquainted. Busily we perform our private affairs seldom noticing the strangers we meet. Porter's Hill, like many other rural settlements, has practically vanished. Because modern technology links the world, we now belong to a much larger community. We face common problems, fears and goals. Unfortunately we seem to have lost that vital "feeling of com- munity."
