A Change John w, .Hanna, .Progres, sive COriservative candidate for Huron-Bruce, has thus far in his career followed the footsteps of his father. His. father served as counci'lor. and mayor of Wingham' and John has had a sirnflar ex- perience, having been on the Council ..for eight years—five as mayor. Like his father his whole . life has been lived in this district and for.sixty,.. Hanna has years the name has been symbolic of merch- andising Wingham. Busi- ness has changed much since • the early days, but John went through the butter and egg stage of the general store. His experience in this rural area has well equipped him to understand the problems . of the farmer and he is well aware tha, we must have a prosperous agriculture to have real prosperity in this district or throughout Ontario. Worthwhile Objectives A square deal for the farmers, who in my opinion, have never had one. Reconstruction program following the war to include equal rights for the farmer. Electric Lights and Power on every farm at reasonable rates. A live reforestation policy for Ontario. Relief 'of farm labour shortage. Ceiling on farm produce raised to a level that will give'4* prosperity. If elected I promise to the best of my ability to carry above pledges. out JOHN W. HANNA Mr. Edward McGrogGan,visited at M. Jeffray's on Sunday evening. When asked about his idea of strategy, the recruit replied, "It's when you're out of ammunition, but keep right on firing."
