GOOD NEWS FOR MANY
harassed last-minute income tax
payers who were really plugging
hard to get their returns in be-
fore the April 30 deadline!
Announcement was made in the
House of Commons yesterday that
the deadline had been extended
to May 31 on account of "extreme
weather conditions in 'various
parts of the country," with ap-
parent "reference to the serious
floods in Western Canada . . .
Personally, it made no difference
to us, because we struggled hard
and mailed in the return yester-
day before the announcement. , .

ARE TURKEY BUZZARDS RARE
or common birds? . Joseph
Storey, R.R. 3, Clinton, brought
to The NEWS -RECORD Office on
Friday last a turkey buzzard
which he had captured and which
had a wing spread of about three
feet . . , Joe says these birds are
quite plentiful in this district and
are beneficial to farmers because
they feed on grubs and parasites
He let the bird go outside
Russell Jervis' store, and when
last seen it was perched on the
roof of Miss Amy Andrews' house
pn liattenbury St.
THROUGH THE KINDNESS OF
Secretary -Treasurer Ernest Wal-
ton, we had the privilege of get-
ting a little peek at the new wing
of Clinton Public Hospital yest-
erday afternoon . . .And it
really gave us a big surprise be-
cause it looks like "the last
thing" in hospital accommodation
and when completed, the residents
of the community should be proud
of it .:. With Ald. O. L. Paisley
Iending a helping hand, they were
installing the giant washing ma-
chine, extractor and dryer in the
laundry . . "IVlodern" is the
word for everything oonneeted

TREE PLANTING
RECOMMENDED
TO PARK BOARD
Clinton Community Athletic
Field Board, formerly known as
the Board of Park Management,
held a meeting in the Town Coun-
cil Chamber Monday evening with
all members present and the
chiarman, A. J. McMurray, pre-
siding.
Following a survey made on the
spot by representatives last sum-
mer and fall, Ontario Department
of Horticultural forwarded a de-
tailed plan for the future develop-
ment and permanent improve-
ment of Community Park.
Dealing with the matter chiefly
from the horticultural angle, the
report strongly recommended the
planting of trees and shrubs, de-
velopment of the pond, and other
improvements. It was decided to
keep the recommendations in mind
and implement them if possible,
but no definite programme was
mapped out.
Members of the Board paid a
visit to the Park Wednesday in
order to make a survey. ,
It was decided to get the ball
diamond in shape for the season.
First step is to get rid of the old
bleachers, and the second .is to
erect six new bleahcers, under the
direction of Mitchael McAdam.
Each bleacher will be 16 feet long,
three seats high, and the six are
expected to accommodate 200 to
300 people.
Facilities were voted to the
Lions Club and Band for the Band
Tattoo on June 7 and to the LOL
for 'the Orange Celebration on
July 12. It was arranged to hire
the bulldozer to do necessary
work.
HORTICULTURAL MEETING
The next regular meeting of
Clinton Citizens' Horticultural So-
ciety will be held in the Board
Room of the Agricultural Office
on Monday evening, May 3, at
eight o'clock. Mrs. Bert Tasker
and Mrs. Duncan McCallum of
Blyth Horticultural Society will
be the main speakers. Everyone
interested in flowers and . in
beautifying the town will be wel-
come.
Hugh Hill Is
Huron -Bruce
Liberal Pick
Hugh Hill, well known Col-
borne Township farmer, was un-
animously chosen Liberal candid-
ate for Huron -Bruce at the June 7
election at a largely attended no-
minating convention in the Town
Hall, Wingham Saturday evening.
Mr. Hill was defeated in a
three -cornered battle in August
1943 by John W. Hanna, Progress-
ive Conservative, who has helc'
the seat since that time. He has
a long record in municipal polit-
ics, having served as a member of
Colborne Township Council for
12 years, three of them as Reeve
and representative in Huron
County Council.
Five men were nominated for
the candidacy but only Mr. Hill
allowed his name to stand. The
others, Brown Smyth, West Waw-
anosh; Donald Blue Ripley; R. S.
Hetherington, Wingham; and Wil-
fred Anderson, Lucknow, with-
drew, giving as their reasons
pressure of business or other per-
sonal reasons.
In accepting the nomination,
Mr. Hill appealed to his listeners
to give him their full support, de-
claring that regardless of the ab-
ility of any candidate, he could
not win an election unassisted. Mr.
Hill paid tribute to the qualities
of Farquhar Oliver, Provincial
Liberal leader, saying it would be
a pleasure to enter the fight with
Mr. Oliver and to support him in
the House if elected.
Donald Blue, Ripley, was elect-
ed president of the Huron -Bruce
Riding Liberal Association, suc-
ceeding Alex• Alexander, who is
now living in Goderich. Brown
Smyth, of West Wawanosh, was
elected vice-president, and Gord-
on Elliott, Blyth, was re-elected
secretary.
Premier Drew has called a pro-
vincial general election "on a
phony issue" simply "to cover up
his own scandalous shortcomings"
Hon. Farquhar Oliver, Ontario
Liberal leader, charged in address
It was his first major speech in
the election campaign.

ROSARY CRUSADE
Rev. Father Patrick Peyton,
CSC, founder and director of The
Family Hour 'radio feature, made
en eloquent plea in behalf of the
Family Rosary Crusade in a
simple and direct address before
a large congregation in St. Jos-
eph's Church here Tuesday morn-
ing. He also spoke to other par-
ishes in the Diocese lef London
last week and this week.
He strongly urged that ten min-
utes of every 24 hours be given
over in prayer to the Good God.
Father Peyton told the story of
how he has came to be known as
the "Rosary Priest For the past
six years, he said, ever since his
ordination, he has been trying to
urge Catholics to kneel as a fam-
ily and pray the rosary daily, to
adore, to pray and to thank God
for everything He has given dur-
ing the day and night. Saying
the rosary as a family unit is
much greater than as individuals,
he stated. God expects much
from families to whom he has giv-
en so much and it is not too
Much to give ten minutes a• day
to "the most powerful family
prayer," the priest stated.
Terming himself a salesman to
sell the family rosary, Father
Peyton said he was merely trying
to pay back a debt to a true
friend who stayed by him when
others turned away, the Blessed
Virgin. He said he was also pay-
ing a debt to the family rosary
which he learned as a child and
he hoped to put the family rosary
into millions of homes.
