could make georgetown famous development of a gyroplane designed for ease of flying and to suit the mass pocketbook of the buying public is the aim of a fledgling in dustry which has located in town if peter payne and his associates are sue cessful first in producing such a machine and sec ond in securing the financing to put it into pro duction georgetown could well become famous as the birthplace of the plane of the future such a project is not simple and we admire these men who are devoting their time to the gyroplane conceptas well as those men who have backed them with money to continue their experiments the next six months will tell the tale and every georgetowner will be interested in watching their progress major result for our town of course would be establishment of a substantial industry which would employ some 400 people a much needed addition to our industrial picture special canadian symbol st patrick s day celebrations led a friend to remark last week that canada seems to have no special yearly celebration which is known beyond our country s borders it is true that we have july 1st as dominion day but this rings no bell in the way that sham rocks do for ireland robbie burns and haggis for the scots or the maypole ceremonies for the english with the maple leaf our national emblem perhaps canadians should be encouraged to wear a lapel badge on dominion day with store and homes decorated in similar fashion perhaps too at the same time we could develop a dis tinctive canadian dish which could become like snails for france goulash for hungary and spaghetti for italy a country is the better for having customs which readly identify it on the world scene a natoinal emblem and a national food are two ways this can be accomplished should take the herald speaking at monday s council meeting brian larmour representing the ontario water resources commission expressed surprise that the local scene after the avro layoffs was not as dismal as he had feared from reading the tor onto papers it is understandable perhaps that a city man would be unaware of a small town s econ omy but in mr larmour s position avrepresen tative of a body which is backing close to a mil lion dollar expenditure on a new sewage disposal plant we might suggest that he get his facts from the herald rather than from the metropoli tan press a herald subscription might be in prder for the owrc actually georgetown s total economy has suffered to some extent a committee member of georgetown employment service estimates that 300 ex avro residents are unemployed to date severance payments have cushioned the real blow of being without work but these are now running out and there are men who are faced with a real problem of maintaining payments on their homes buying groceries and paying house hold bills that no one should face this situation very long is the earnest hope of every george town resident we look forward to the week when the herald can headline
