Call them flying saucers,
Unidentified Flying Objects,
UFOs or what you will. Laugh,
scoff or worry about strange
visits from distant planets,
There has been plenty of
science fiction about "the
things"; and there has been
enough scientific data develop-
ed that the U. S, A. has an of-
ficial government bureau to
delve into the mystery objects.
Whatever it is, there's some-
thing going on up there.
A recent story and artist's
drawing in Spanner gave details
of a UFO seen by a CPA DC-8
crew over Central America. Ex-
perienced pilots are not care-
less in such reportings: through
the very nature of their job,
they are least likely to be fool-
ed by airborne mirages.
This was by no means the
first sighting of a UFO by Can-
adian Pacific men. A newspa-
per clipping, yellow with age,
was discovered lately in his ca-
boose by Conductor Daniel
Bueckert, who works out of
Moose Jaw.
Printed in the Sept. 14,
1897 issue of The Hamilton
Spectator, the article reported
that C. W. Spencer, superin-
tendent of the eastern division
of the CPR, and his assistant,
Thomas Hay, were "admiring
the clear, starlit heavens" from
the observation car, near Gra-
vel River, Ont., when they saw
"a something in the sky" .
They gave details of alapge
white light, and above it a red
and a white light, When the
airborne object tutried„ the red
light became blue and "a row
Of four lights was seen 'rennin,
ated by a circle orellipse of a
dozen lights, in the midst of
which was the dark body of the
air ship,"
All the elements of other-
world mystery were there, but
the observers were not sucked
in by science fiction, then in
its infancy in those happier,
simpler days. The paper re-
ported that the lights had the
"steady clearness of acetylene
or electric light" -- no hanky-
panky there -- and Messrs.
Spencer and. Hay "could form
no other opinion than that it
was an air ship."
The writer concluded: "It is
quite possible that some invent-
or has set to work.quietly and
unostentatiously and thus put
his theories into practice in the
world; and if he has not come
to grief in the wilds of Lake
Superior, we shall soon know
that air navigation has been ac-
complished on Canadian terri-
tory."
One wonders what Messrs.
Spencer and Hay would have
thought had they been told that,
70 years later, 600-mph CPA
jet Empresses would be flying
overhead bound for the four
corners of the world. --Spanner.

Due to the inclement weath-,
er the Wingham Branch of the

picnic, which was to have been
in the John Street park, in the
council chambers. The meet-
ing opened with the singing of
"0 Canada". There were
about 30 members in attend-
ance,
The secretary, Mrs. Shiell,
read the minutes and corres.-
pondence, After much discus-
sion the members decided that
a portrait of the Queen be do-
nated and hung in the council
chambers, as their centennial
project.
A bus trip to Goderich in
August was voted on by the
members. At the conclusion of
the business games and bingo
were enjoyed for the balance
of the afternoon, followed by a
delicious picnic lunch which
was enjoyed by all. The host-
esses were Mrs. Powell and Mrs.
