gordon mclintoclc frorh town leave a void or rather several voids to be filled we can think of no one who has been more active in all phases of community life during his six teen years residence here than mr mclintock who has given so generously of his energy and ability both in die line of work as manager of the canadian bank of commerce branch and in the numerous ejctramural activities with which he was associated the bank has secured an able replacement for his daily work m the person of the new manager mr r h ireland whose experience in small and large branches and m toronto head office will serve the public well but it is another thing to fill such vacancies as treasurer of the red cross president of the pipe band fall fair board director or any other of the numerous offices which mr mclintock relinquishes on his departure from town he has been one of the most enthusiastic members of the board of directors of the esquesing agricultural society since he came to georgetown as well as presi dent of the girls pipe band since its formation as char ter secretary of the lions club he filled that office cap ably for eight years and took an extremely active part in the work of georgetown s only service club during the nine war time victory loans he was an indefatig able worker and the proud record of money raising set by georgetown district is due in no small part to his ef forts he worked tirelessly for the red cross as treas urer of that organization and was an active churchwor ker at the united church 0 as a mason he was a member of credit lodge and the scottish rite served as treasurer of the curling club as chairman of finance on the board of cedarvale school and was a member of the old arena board it is small wonder that after 1 6 years of such activ ity mr mclintock feels that a rest is in order on be naif of the community at large we wish him a happy life in the full enjoment of knowing that he has done his job well and that we will miss him in the many pla ces in which we came in contact with him on to the championship this has been a glorious season of hockey for georgetown and although georgetown suffered a set back on monday we still have high hopes that they will emerge victorious in the intermediate b cham pionship the players need no written tribute their ability has been recognized all season by t lar crow da which have attended every game and followed them on their outof town trips to the neighbouring towns and latterly to owen sound and gait what has impressed us most is the clean play of a team which can rough it up when the occasion de mands but which never resorts to dirty work and comes out smiling win lose or draw both the owen sound and port elgin newspapers have recognized this quality and have had no ill word to say about the papermaker as they defeated the lads from the north were mighty proud of georgetown s brand of hockey and weve got a banner headline all in readiness for the issue when the championship is xiinched canadas first machine coated papers under the heading of things to come a recent article in provincials paper is of particular interest in georgetown where paper coating has for years been one of the leading industries here is the article in a recent issue of provincial s paper we told ypu that provincial paper limited would be the first mill in canada to supply machine coated paper a grade midwaym price setween s c and coated ma chines for the process are now being installed in our port arthur ont mill and canada s first m c pa per is expected to roll off them late in 1946 while were waiting for this interesting new paper development let s take a doserlook at it both from a printing and a manufacturing standpoint machine coating refers to a process whereby paper is made and coated during the same operation the term is perhaps unfortunate as obviously all coat mg is done by machine but for orthodox or regular coating this is a separate operation usvially carried out on different machinery by different crews and usually ma different building there is a good deal of difference of opinion as to what the quality of machine coated papers wfll ulti mately be since they were first introduced much im provement hasbeen made and the range of grades wid ened but at the present time neither the quality nor the range of grades is quite comparable with regular wppef7 wmtityneneofragof winion maintains that machine coated papers will ultimately fill every market now supplied by regular coated and the other end think that they are more likely to dis place supercalendered papers a conservative vievjr i that they will create a field for themselves in be tween the two that the latter opinion is the more near ly correct appears to be borne out by actual develop ments for machine coated papers are filling what seems to be their logical market namely large publications and catalogues quite a number of different machine coated pro cesses have been developed during the past 10 or l years sorhe of them are very similar in principle pro vincial paper spent a good deal of time and effort to stu dy the different processes to compare and actually test out their products and to seek expert advice before making the final decision and feels confident that the first canadian made machine coated paper will be second to none converting to 60 cyc1xs because a change in the frequency of the elec tric power supply will affect a post war program in volving expenditures of possibly 200000000 during the next five years tr thomas hogg chairman of the hydro electric power commission of ontario has ser ved notice that a decision must be reached soon on whe ther the 25 cycle frequency in the niagara district is to be changed to 60 cycles expert technical opinion is unanimous that the higher frequency is more advantageous excepting in ontario 60 cycles is the accepted standard in north amenca electric motors and transformers designed for that frequency are less costly to manufacture ulu mination of all kinds especially the fluorescent type is greatly improved because the flicker so noticeable with 25 cycle current is virtually eliminated so from an engineering viewpoint there are overwhelming reasons for changing to 60 cycles the fly in the oint ment is the cot of conversion as dr hogg has pointed out the change over to 60 cycle service would make no difference to the do mestic consumer s heating equipment electric range toaster grill iron etc but it would affect his larger mo tor driven appliances such as refrigerators washing ma chines blowtrs for furnaces and oil burners in the in dustnal field the hvdro chairman said the changes would be more momentous and in many cases the cost might outweigh the immediate advantages he added obviousl i i the consumer who in the lonp run vvill pay the total cost of any change over but it is also obvious that it would be inequitable to ask consumers individually to bear the whole cost of the change over of their own equipment since all share the benefits and the benefits are nqt necessarily in proportion to the in dividual consumer s cost of change over from 25 cycles to 60 cycles presumably that may be taken as an indication that the cost qf conversion will not become an immedi ae and heavy expense to power users instead it will be amortized over a periodof years and evenutally paid by an addition of some form or other to the consumer s regular bills it goes without saying that working out such a plan on an equitable basis will be a very comph cated problem another problem is presented by the necessity for getting consent to the conversion by the various municipalities represented in the ontario muni- pal electric association more than a decadeago theniagara hudsonsys m undertook the changeover of the power supply in buffalo from 25 cycles to 60 cycles being a privately owned corporation the agreement of municipal bodies was not necessary the power company assumed the cost of changing not only its own equipment but that of domestic consumers too today all buffalo with the exception of certain heavy industries enjoys the advan tages of 60cycie current of course as dr hogg said it is the consumer who in the long run must pay the cost of conversion to 60 cycles undoubtedly that holds true for buffalo where consumers have probably been paying slightly higher power bills than might otherwise have been the case but that has been offset in many cases by sav ings in the purchase of 60cycie equipment in any event the significant feature is that ac ross the river a big privatelyowned utility corporation made the change about 1 0 years ago in ontario with its publicly owned system the matter is still in the dis
