James (Continued from Iast week) To make roam for more im- portant local news in last week's issue our story on the convention of the Ontario-Quebec Division of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers at Windsor was cut short. We are therefore continuing the story where we left off about our visit to the Ford Motor Plant and the mnternationally famous Greenfield Village at Dearborn, Mich. Mr. W. A. Simonds, speaker of the day, was introduced by Mr. Ellis Millard, Publicity Director of the Ford Motor Company. He ex- plained that Mr. Siznonds had re- cently returned from Hollywood where he was one of the techni- cal advisors for the films on the life of Thomas A. Edison. He is a]so in charge of Edison Institute, Museum and Greenfield Village and outlined briefly what we were to see later. One of his most interesting points was that Tho- mas Edison's father and grand- f ather lived in Ontario, near St. Thomas, and though Mr. Henry Ford has done sa much ta com- memorate Edison's life, Ontario has flot even rebuilt the old Edi- son cemetery which is in a most dilapidated condition. He urged that something be done about the matter. The trip through this almost unbelievable Greenfield Village and Edison Museum is f ar beyond the scope of anyone's imagination and would take hours ta even briefly describe. Visitors enter the village through the large gate lodge and are loaded into aid time stage coaches and horse-drawn streetcars. If they look closely as they leave the lodge they are con- fronted by a large floral clock which actually runs. The -various buildings include the Wright Bros. Cycle Shop where the first airplane was con- structed, Sir John Bennett's jew- ellery store, which was brought from London and includes an elaborate display of wonderful new and ald-fashioned watches and jewellery, the Waterford General store displaying articles of wearing apparel worn 48 or 50 years ago, including quaint bustles and other intricate para. phernalia, the Martha-Mary Cha- pel, a Scotch settlement school and the Logan County Court House where the chair in which Lincoln was assassinated is an view, blood stains still apparent. There were also desks and other articles which Lincoln has used. The workshop of Thomas A. Edison was most interesting, es- pecially sa because in 1928, Edi- since early last faîl. A brother at Port Britain predeceased him by exactly three weeks. Mr. Herb. Lord, whose farm adjoins, has rented the Scuithorpe fanm and is at present working it. He is a cousin of Mrs. J. H. Jose, New- castle. Courtice son returned to the laboratory and remade bis experiment whîcb led ta the invention of the elec- tnic light bulb. His tools and equipment have not been touched since that time. Photos line the walls, shawing Mn. Edison and Mr. Fond in the labaratory at that time. The Edison Institute Museum was a continuation o! amazing nevelatian. A few o! the items wbich are interesting now, but will be invaluable 50 years from naw, included aId and new farmn implements, and engines, some with the drive wbeel more than 24 feet in diameter. Furniture of ail kînds, ages and types showing what the past and present has pnoduced. There was also an in- teresting exhibit showing the progness which bas been made in the automobile industry, as well as full size locomotives, ainplanes and boats and thousands o! othen items too numerous ta descnibe. The entire mornîng and afternoon was thrilling and astonishing. Returning ta aur hotel in Wind- tan, we were able ta sit down for a few minutes and rest tired feet,. eyes and bodies while perusing the latest editian o! a wonderful newspapen, the Windsar Daily Star, ane o! the mast enterprising dailies in the Dominion. Ondin- arily, weekly newspapenmen arc nat accustomed ta much publitity on their convention, but this was an exception. The Star nan col- umns o! reading material, literal- ly dozens o! photos, and tneated thse visîting* editors like royalty. It is littie wonder Uic people o! Windsor are proud o! their fine paper. One o! thc highlights o! the convention, the Friday evening banquet, was addnessed by Lee A. White, Director o! Public Rela- tions o! the Detroit News, who presentcd an able discourse on the problems which confront thse press. Rev. M. C. Davies spoke at the Saturday luncheon and gave a most inspiratianal address during wbich he urged publishers ta found their policies on established and unchangeabie principles o! liberty, truth and rigiteousness. He is the aiginator o! the quiet sanctuary hour aven radio station CKLW, Detroit, and has a com- manding and sincere mannen and voice. Pnize winners wene annaunced at the luncheon and the new of- ficers were întraduced. Andrew O. Hebb, o! the Ncwmarkct Ena, replaces R. A. Giles, o! Lachute, Que., who becomes Hanarary Pre- sident.
