12 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, July 8, 1967 LIBRARY NEWS AND REVIEWS The following book reviews were by Mrs. W. V. Mec- Knight. Adult Services De- partment. Historical Glimpses of Len- nox and Addington County, compiled by the Brochure Com- mittee of the Lennox and Add- re igg Society and pul for the Centennial 1964. This attractive, well re- searched book is a community effort, the editor being James A. Eadie. The frontispiece is a of the Macpherson apanee, by Orval C. Madden. "It is a sad fact that many of the answers to the riddles of our county's past lie locked and useless in countless attics, trunks and desk drawers." This introduction makes a plea Historical Society Seeks Old Photographs And Books county town, as he drew a crowd too large to be accom- modated in any hall. There are photographs, most- ly old, some modern, on almost every page of this book. Here are pictures of Sir Wilfred Laurier with Mrs. W. S. Her- rington, substantial United Churches of Selby, Roblin and Bath, the Wilton cheese factory, the 'Amherst. Islander', Assel- tine's woollen mill at Odessa (now transplanted and in oper- ation at Upper Canada Village), John Gibbard, Canada's oldest furniture manufacturer and a jaunty fellow, Fred S, Richard- son, who led his cricket team to the Provincial championship.

The author did vital work as a radio - telephone operator, but the long hours of tense lis- tening for faint signals through enemy 'jamming' eventually became too much for her. Her health became impaired. ACW Settle's memory is most accurate, her observances per- ceptive, and wryly amusing. Her description of the Initial Training Unit, with its jargon, square bashing and inspections rings true; she learned 'never to volunteer for anything' the hard way. Service life, how- ever, was not really so bad as it is portrayed here, at least in the opinion of former Lead- ing Aircraft Woman 2088576.

The county of Lennox and Addington separated from Frontenac in 1864 after bitter opposition led by Sir John A. Macdonald. Forty years be- fore that date Hugh Macdonald moved from Kingston to a store just west of Hay Bay Methodist Church. An old letter to the Napanee Beaver in 1873 speaks of John A.
