IT'S
Salvation Army
Editor in Town
Lieut. -Col. Herbert Wood,
editor-in-chief of Salvation
Army Publications in Canada,
has been a visitor in town this
week. He is here to write a
feature story on the activities
of the Wingham Corps, which
has been an extremely active
one and whose services in wel-
fare and spiritual affairs have
been constantly growing.
The Salvation Arty Publi-
cations in Canada comprises
four magazines, The War Cry,
which is perhaps the best known
to the general public, The
Young Soldier, The Crest and
The Home Leaguer. The latter
is the publication for the Home
League, comparable to Women's
Associations in other churches.
Lieut. -Col. Wood's story on
the Wingham Corps will be fea-
tured in The War Cry in the
near future.
Interesting Book
Recounts History
The architecture of pioneer
buildings and trips through
Perth and Huron are the subject
of an historical booklet publish-
ed recently by British Mortgage
& Trust Company. "Paths of
History in Perth and Huron" has
been produced in story and pic-
ture form, drawn and recorded
by John Martin, A. R. C. A. ,
O, S, A, , and arranged and
written by Anthony L, Kearsley,
B.A., F.R.Met.S.
In both pictures and story,
the book illustrates the fact
that early buildings were of
high architectural standards as
their builders used the exemp-
lary drawings and styles of
Batty Langley. His system of
Gothic orders is followed in
many Perth -Huron buildings.
Using materials available
at the time, pioneer settlers
constructed buildings that show
evidence of trained workman-
ship and excellent proportion,
at the same time accommodat-
ing themselves to the rigours
of pioneer life.
John Martin has for many
years been recognized as an
Wingham Advance -Times, Thursday, August 22, 1963 Page 1
expert in .architectural paint-
ings and has been commission-
ed to record a number of out-
standing Canadian buildings,
Anthony Kearsley, a well*
known Stratford writer, is head
of the English department of
Northwestern Secondary School,.
Stratford, Included in his
writing career are regular as-
signments for The Times, Lon-
don, England,
The booklet is the story of
an era which is quickly passing.
