A Goderich boy who has 'nada a moo ss of a Goderich business offering himself as a
candidate for Mayor of Goderich! There is something in that sentence that strikes the
imagination. Huron County has :wiliest the larger cities with a good percentage of
their big men. To a man who has stared bi his community and made a big success of a
big business should go the honors that that community has to bestow.
Lionel Parions has made enc by his fearless straight -from -the -shoulder meth-
ods of doing business. To some who a only slightly familiar with him, his manner at
times even appears short and brusque. But to those who know him best he is recognized
as a lapiness man of exceptional abi itfr' and one who takes-111914de in forwarding the its.
teresb bis home tow.. As President of the Board of Trade he has gid . . _,pestaen
"sae' and thought and\trying to secure industries for the town he has., t:90-
itant Xij. \ t7 tb \
Of all the public men interested in the long controversy as to the Lake Huron Steel
Corporation, he alone saw that Detroit was the only place to Amore the information de-
sired. He offered to pay the Mayor's expenses to make the necessary enquiries and when
the Mayor refused, he himself took the trip and his stand afterwards was based on the in-
formation received. He demanded from the Mayor that the people of the town be sup-
plied with the "inside" information the Mayor claimed he had, so that they might prot •'
ththir
ilinertsib. The Mayor replied that the information.:_aras__so.frdential. On nomma+
M0. Wet the Mayor acknowledged he had no information to sive.
If a 44 mill"taz rate is necessary lode:• present conditions, then the only thing that
will reduce that rate is more industries and a larger population. Mr. Parsons has business
tplations that make it possible for him to sleet big men. With the exodus of many large
industries from the big cities to smaller communities, Goderich must inevitably before
long take its place among the important industrial centres. The harbor will be the at-
traction that will mean much, and no man is better able to talk Godes'ieh harbor than 1.,.
G. Parsons. It has been one of the problems of his business for man years '
Two policies of his many good ones that must commend the 10 Go tam pay-

To the Workman nothing could be a greater boon than an ideal community centre,
with its playgrounds, gymnasium and baths for both boys and girls. Nothing will build
a healthy, happy community so much as this feature that Goderich has needs% for so
many years. it is a practical suggestion that would be a hating benefit. It is in striking
conttast to a policy of hand -shaking and pander.
Lionel Parsons would be a mayor who would bring ersdit to the tow*. He would
five an honest, efficient and fearless administration.
