He said that forty thousand dollars is not "chicken feed" but with more than $18,000,00 subscribed by '74 people, some of whom will give again because of the increased cost, there should be plenty left in Wingham and district to subscribe the balance, all who are able to contribute shall be expected to do so. He drew the attention of those present to the subscription cards at their plates and explained how sub- scriptions as low as $5,00 per month could be made over a period of twelve or more months but the committee felt that no subscription from this group should' be less than $60.00, many should he much more generous. He pointed out that the cards provided for a variety of terms and amounts of payments to suit a variety of people and that subscribers could fill in the name of their Bank along with their choice of methead and amount of sub- scription, sign their name at the bot- tom and turn the card in to Mr. W. H. French, Treasurer of the Hospital Building Fund or to their bank and the deduction for their payments as they fell due would be automatically ar- ranged. He appealed to all who would to fill in their cards before they left the meeting and the Treasurer would receive the. subscriptions now. More than $1000.00 was immediately sub- scribed. During the meeting variety was ob- tained by Community singing under the direction of Lion Jack McKibbon, and Guitar Duets by Cec. Merkley and Bob Hall. Lion Harold Victor Pym rendered a fine piano solo and officiated at the piano during the evening. OLD CHUM FOR PIPE OR ROLLING YOUR OWN .

The trouble is that no one with the necessary authority has determined to correct the basic economic ills of Agriculture." BRACKEN WILL ABOLISH INJUSTICE TO FARMERS John 'Bracken, the farmer, is not content, merely to point out the injustices of which he, and every other farmer, is only too well aware. He is determined to abolish these economic ills, these injustices, immediately and permanently. John Bracken guarantees definite PROTECTION FOR FARMERS against income collapse and wide extremes of income fluctuation: • The Farmer shall be guaranteed a just and proportionate share of the nation's income. • This will be done by a system of fair prices to be announced before the season of pro- duction, The farmer will then carry on with the assurance that he will receive a just share of the national income. He will thus have money to buy farm implements and provide for comforts. His own living standard will be permanently raised and he will be able to contribute to community welfare. • We shall re-establish a Natural Products Marketing Act. • We shall appoint a Board of Livestock Com- missioners in which shall be vested power to regulate and direct all aspects of live.- stock marketing in somewhat the same manner as the Board of Grain Commis- sioners regulates the handling of wheat. These are only the highlights of the Bracken Party's pledge to Canadian farmers. Join John Bracken in his fight for farmers' rights. WIN WITH BRACKEN Vote for Your PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE.

LATEST INFORMATION ON NEW HOSPITAL (Continued from page 1) Mr. Putherbough, the contractor, spoke briefly on the absolutely fire- proof construction of the building and the high quality of materials and con- struction throughout. He explained that in construction much of the ex- pense of quality, workmanship and materials were hidden and would re- main unseen through the years which themselves would bear eloquent tribute to the wisdom of insisting on such val- uable assets. Lion Dr. "Bill" Connell produced a black board front view sketch of the new Hospital, showing how it would be joined to the old and gave floor by floor details from the basement to the third floor. His explanations were clear, concise and to the point, con- vincing all present that the completion of this new building will give Wing- ham and district a hospitalization ser- vice far beyond that obtainable in most towns of its size and that which will eliminate the necessity and expense of taking patients to larger .centres for ac- commodation. Latest Information on New Hospital 2 Lion "Bill" Galbraith told of his in- terest in the hospital and how happy he was that as trustee of the Estate of the late John Cornyn Currie he had been able to .donate, on behalf of the Estate, much valuable and costly tech- nical equipment such as is seldom found outside of the larger cities. The very newest and best quality equip- ment available had been chosen and was donated to the Wingham. General Hospital on the basis that no 'charge would .he made to any patient for the use of the actual equipment donated. As chairman of the Hospital Build' ing Fund Subscription Committee, Frank R. Howson, gave a report on what his committee had been doing since last summer when the town al- most unanimously carried a by-law granting $15,000.00 to the Hospital Building Fund. At that time the es- timate for the new building was $65,000.00. The County had granted $25,000.00; the town, $15,000.00 and it was estimated that surrounding. Municipal councils could be counted on for at least $5000.00 so his committee had been asked to raise by public sub- scription from Wingliatn and district total of $20,000,00, The committee de- cided to commence pits work in Wing- ham first arid set about quietly inter. viewing Winghamitet a ri d former Wingharnites. A plan was developed whereby those who wished a memorial plaque commemorating a loved one or a "For Service" plaque for those who believed in a whole hearted community service could have saute erected in the hospital, according to rules laid down by the Board, for a subscription of $500.00 or over. ' 13e was glad to re- port 'that before Christmas a total of More than $17,000.00 had been raised from seventy-two natnes and this in- chided five one thousand and several ,$ 0 THE CINLY SYNTHETIC RUBBER TIRE uniap 0# IWE 3/00.0* At 'Icy 0 0os 'r..) Et Pex' f* Mktlr 4) rr ff,Ti \ CAR owners have been wondering just how safe synthetic rubber tires are— just how much mileage they will give. Firestone decided to put its tires to the supreme test. So a race car was equipped with regular, stock Firestone Synthetic Rubber Tires, the same as you can buy for your car, and raced for 500 miles around the Indianapolis Speedway under American Automobile Association super- vision. Wilbur Shaw, famous three-time win- ner of the Indianapolis Sweepstakes, volunteered to make the run. And he averaged 100.34 miles an hour, hitting more than 135 miles an hour on the straightaways! Imagine the punishment those tires took as they pounded over the rough brick and grinding asphalt... equal to 50,000 miles of ordinary driving! Yet, in this grueling, tire-torturing test, not a skid or blowout occurred. Remember this fact when you get per- mission to buy new tires—Firestone are the only tires made that are safety- proved on the speedway for your pro-tection on the highway. MADE OF FIRESTONE VII", I C RUBBER , their bereavement. Little Bobby Henderson at the home l of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Falconer, had • the misfortune to fail downstairs on Thursday night and broke his collar bone on the right side. After an X-ray at Wingham Hospital, he was bandag- ed up arid apparently is none the worse of his tumble. Mr, and Mrs. Fred Graham of Conn, spent Sunday at the home of her brother-in-law, Mr. Robert Carrick. Many will be interested to know that Mrs. Thos. Morrison went through an -operation in Toronto on Thursday, and although her condition was critical, she has been making a steady improvement. Mr. Fred Leaver of Toronto, spent the week-end with Mr. Chas. Leaver. 7 Anniversary services will be held in the United Church here on Sunday, ' June 10th., with services at 11 a. m. and 7.30 p. m.

Mr_ and Mrs. Andrew McCormack of Culross, are celebrating the fortieth anniversary of their marriage on Fri- day, June 8th. The Government moving pictures will be shown in the Institute Hall i here this Wednesday evening. Every- one should take advantage of these educational pictures, when they are shown in the village. Mr, Harold Martin was in St. Cath- arines on Wednesday last, and Mrs. Martin returned home with him, also little Tommy and Kathleen St. Marie, who came to spend the next few weeks with their grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Jas. St, Marie. A fine quilt, which had been on ex- hibit in Mr. H. Fryfogle's window for a few weeks, made by the Fordyce Red Cross Group and on which almost $40. of tickets had been sold, was recently raffled at a dance 'at St. Helens, and ,went to Mr. Leonard Phillips. The group realized $20.00 from the dance, also. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Gully of Wing- ham, and Mr. and- Mrs. Amos. Corn- elius spent Sunday with the latter's niece, Mr. and Mrs. Will Redmond of St. Augustine. Mrs. Allen Sr., and Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Allen and baby son of Mark- dale, spent Friday last at the home of the former's sister, Mrs. John Webb. Mr. Robert Lott of Calgary, came five hundred dollar subscriptions. It was decided to open the committees 1945 activities when construction on the hospital got under way. Prelimi- nary planning has been furnished and this meeting is one result. It was a pleasure to report that a wonderful spirit towards our hospital project pre- vails and only to-day he had received one subscription for $100,00 and one for $1000.00. This coupled with a grant from the Province of Ontario at $10,000,00 means that we now have a total of approximately $72,000,00 rais- ed, while this is cause for much satis- faction the project has grown from a $65,000 proposition to one of $100000. and that instead of $20,000.00 to lie raised by public subscription it is now necessary to raise $45,000.00. Of this amount slightly over $18,000.00 has been subscribed and $27,000.00 has yet to be raised. He recalled that the hos- pital is owned by the people, the Board is a group of public-spirited citizens, giving freely of their ability and time, without remuneration and that the job of organizing and managing the new hospital is a sufficient burden without making it necessary to carry a load )1 debt. The hospital, should be debt free when opened this fall. His committee had been appointed by the Board and was expected to see that the money was raised. The citizens of Wingham and district would be happy about it if the hospital was debt free when opened but would be critical of the committee if it failed in this achieve- ment. He thought it was no credit to Wingham that it took 40 years to pay for its town hall, which cost about $8,000.00 when built and suggested that during the forty years it was paid for several times in interest. If the subscription committee appeared to be aggressive it was because of the size of the job. His committee had no apologies to make. It was necessary to be aggressive to bring the job to a successful conclusion, There were subscription cards at the plates and another speaker would explain them. Mr. E. S. Copeland was the last speaker. He said this was Wingham's biggest project in over fifty years, a Project worthy of the fine people who live in the area this hospital will serve but that such fine achievements could only be reached by the combined gen- 4
