The Huron Expositor, 1930-05-30, Page 4*0. •1 A if' e • — Friday, May 30, 1930. 4 HE HURONS IN LINE. At the Liberal nominating eon,ven- tien held in Wingham on Tuesiay, $fir. W. H. Robertson, of Goderieh, was chosen as the Liberal standard bearee to contest North Huron in the Torth- coming Federal elections. Mr. Robertson is the editor of the Goderieh Signal, one of the best local papers in Ontario. He is a native ef Goderich and although he has never held public office, he has for a great Many years taiken an active part in politics as a Liberal. He is widely read, a good platform speaker and is deservedly popular: in the county town where he has been one of the most prominent citizens for a great many years. He is, also, wide- ly known in the north riding and will make a strong and popular candidate. Mr. Robertson will have as his op- ponent, Mr. George Spotton, the tyres- ent member, a strong candidare, but not, by any means, an unbeatable ,one. In fact, if the contest is to be a straight party fight between the two, the odds are all in favor of Mr. Rob- ertson. ezhethre a. natty,a etan ger,. bd. • it the best place on th- globe in 'which to live. On Wednesday the hiberah of South Huron held their nominating convention in .Hensall, when Mr. Thos, McMillan, the sitting member was chosen unanimously to again carry the riding in the Liberal 'interests. Mr. MdMillan is recognized as one of the best posted men sitting in Par- liament to -day. No man has a wider knowledge or a firmer grasp of the politica/ problems and questions of the day than he. He is an inde- fatiguable worker, a strong and fluent platform speaker and a bonnie fighter. His political opponent has not yet been selected, but there is little or no doubt .of the outcome of the election Mr. McMillan is expected to carry the Riding again with a very sub- stantial majority. The meeting in Hensall on Wednes- day was one of the most largely at- tended and most enthusiastic in the history of the Liberal Association in South Huron. THE BEST PLACE. TO LIVE "Of all the countries in the world, Canada is the best place to live in at the present time." That is the declaration of Lord Wil- lingdon, Governor General, mane in a recent speech at Ottawa, and few men have had an equal travel experience or are better qualified to speak with authority than has our present Gov- ernor General. No country on earth has a more healthful or bracing climate than that of Canada. In no county on earth are Being conditions made easier ncr are they, generally, as good. It is true that in Canada there is much wealth centered in few hands, but an the same time poverty, as it is known in the old country and on the continent, is unknown in Canada. In no other country is there as good nor as cheap land as there is in Can- ada, and in no other country has a man, without capital, an equal oppor- tunity of making a home for himself, a livelihood or an equal opportunity of gaining a competence. In no other country is a man the master of his own destiny to the sem" extent that he is in Canada. In no other country does he stand on a more equal footing with his fellow men. In ntrAther country can he se- cure an equal education for the same expenditure of time and money. .No country possesses the natural wealth and resources that are to be found in Canada and in no country has man an equal chance of taking theee to himself. He has neither class nor creed nor the accident of birth to contend with in anything like the same manner he has to con- tend 'with them in other countries'. The opportunities are here and man's reward is pretty much wnat his ambition makes it. It is true that at the present time we are hearing a great deal about hard times, about unemployment, but just how pinch real truth there is in these stories, one often has cause to wonder. A few day ago a. young English- man made the statement that he had been in this country for two years. He had no friends and no means., yet he had never been without employment during that time. He started in the harvest fields of 'the West and in the 'winter 'he worked in the lumber camps. The work, he said, was hard., but the pay was good and he could not ask for better treatment than be bad received from his employers. He had sated his money and next year he was _going to take up land in the Feint, River district. And, he con- cluded, no man who comes to Canada, no Matter how little experience or Swans lie may have, need ever fear iineMployment, if he if; willing to Work and work hard.

ELIMVILLE Home Destroyed By Fire. — Fire partially destroyed the handsome home of Mr. Nelson Coultis at about 6.3() on Friday night, which is situ- ated OTt his farm one-half mile south of Eli/I-nine. The children were let- ting off firecrackers close to the house in the Afternoon, and it is supposed that sparks from a rocket lit on the house ,and, started the ,fire. An alarm was turned in while they were at the evening meal. Quickly neighbors were called and were soon on the scene. A bucket brigade was formed and got into action, as were also wrecking parties who removed the furniture, While the upper structure roared like a furnace. As there was a strong wand blowing, feir was a• roused for the safety of the barns, tmd a hurried call was sent through Kirkton central to Exeter for helip. The town alarm W89 sounded and the fire chief interviewed, and in a very short time the big ehemical truck, with Fire Chief Weeks at the siren, fire truck driver an ellennbers at Tho wheel, and with a number of the (bilged% went raring) through the town into rale eeentry, and in an Un- trnevably short time was on the job delavering i‘ts lend of chemical', Which with the help of the bucket brigade, soon had the flames under control. The roof and top.storey of the main building wee burned, the lower Wilsey and the kitchen remaining intact. All the furniture was saved and the struc- ture' carried good insurance. After the Tire was out a heavy rain began to fall and much of the goods were 'sealed with the water. Mr. Coultis has had considerable hard luck of late, having test a whole year from the ef • feces .4af pneumonia, and now has one fad in a plaster peens cast. What makes it more discouraging is that he had only recently remodelled the house and installed hydro service.
