SELECTIVE SERVICE OFFICER WILL BE IN WINGHAM Date Of His Visit Will Be Listed At Post Office In an effort to serve employers throughout the Province and persons in rural areas, arrangements are being made to send a National Selective officer to visit the small towns throughout the counties of Frontenac, Lennox and Addington, Renfrew and Hastings, Grey, Bruce, Huron and Perth. It has not been found prac- tical to maintain a Selective Service office in every town and many people have found the distance to the nearest office a bar to making application for employment. Many have not had an to learn the possibilities of employment in nearby towns and cities and it is with this in mind that these visits arc being arranged. Announcements have been, sent to all local post offices indicating the time and place where interviews can be arranged. These will be close to home and it will be convenient for our people to drive in and talk matters over with this representative. No presstre will be brought to bear on any individual but general information will be provided and opportunities will be described for those who are inter- ested. Ontario is the leading industrial province in Canada and industry these days means war production. Our sons are in the Armed Forces and it is our responsibility to back them tip with the munitions they need. This in- cludes not only the shells, guns, tanks, ships, aeroplanes and other items to be used in combat but also includes clothing, food and a tremendous var- iety of other products. This is'your opportunity to learn where you tan best fit into Canada's war programme, If you are not now engaged in ' essential agriculture be sure and visit the Selective Service Officer whose location- can be deter- mined by reference to' the poster in your post office.

By these arrangements one is certain that the food sent reach- es its proper destination. The fund closes Saturday night, Donations Previously acknowledged $213.81; Dr. R. C. Redmond, $2.00; Mrs. H.

HUGH HILL NAMED LIBERAL CHOICE FOR HURON - BRUCE Hon, Harry Nixon Was Special Speaker At The Huron - Bruce Liberal Convention Hugh Hill, a former reeve of Col- borne --township, was chosen by the Huron-Bruce liberals on Monday night here as their candidate in the Ontario election which will take place August 4th. Mr. Hill is 58 years of age and was born in Colborne, where he operates a 350 acre farm. He is secretary of the Guernsey Cattle Breeders' Association of Ontario and a past president of this association. He is also a past president of the Cana- dian Guernsey Cattle Breeders' As- sociation. In all nine were nominated, Mur- dock Mathieson of Ashfield, Wm. J. McKay of Huron, Hugh Hill of Col- bonne, Raymond Redmond of East Wawanosh, John McNab of Grey, Alex Alexander of Grey, John A. Johnston of Mildmay, Alex Porter- field of East Wawanosh and W. H. Fraser of Wingham. The- first five stayed in the race and on the first ballot John McNab and Raymond Redmond Nere dropped. On the sec- ond ballot Mr. Hill had all but one of a majority over the other two and while' the ballots were being distri- buted to chose either Mr. Hill or Mr. McKay the latter withdrew and Mr. Hill received the nomination. Hon. Harry Nixon in his address stated that the Liberal Administration during the past nine years had given back to the people of Ontario over $70,000,000 by means of the •1 mill subsidy, road grants, etc. The path of the municipalities had been made easier as the Government had taken over the payment of mothers allow- ances and old age pensions. Muni- cipal debts have been reduced by over $200,000,000. I have been called a puppet. and a stooge for the ;Ottawa government, he said, but the government I lead will not be a puppet or a stooge for any other administration and we will make this province a better place in which to live. When we took office, he said, the financial affairs of the province were in a state of chaos. The debt was in- creasing steadily. We at once insti- tuted a sound policy and in two years had a budget surplus and last year had not only a balanced budget but a surplus of $28,000,000 and the net debt was reduced by $11,000,000. I take great pride in the extention of Hydro, he said. Since 1934, 10,- 500 miles of new lines have been built and we have serviced over 72,000 ad- ditional users, and at reduced prices and my intention is to give tins mat- ter my further attention. Ontario can get hydro cheaper than now, he said, and some measure of equalization should be put into effect. We will make hydro available to all the prov- ince at reasonable rates. There are 1ih, million horsepower on the Ottawa and vicinity available and it can be produced cheaply. He predicted the (Continued on page five) Arrived Overseas Me, and Mrs. Roy Adair received word on Tuesday morning that their son, Kenneth Balder, has arrived safely in England, Opened Committee Rooms Time Progressive Conseravtive As- sociation of Huron Bruce, have opened committee rooms in the store former- ly occupied by the Willis Shoe Store.
