She recails a show that was put on here several years ago when the wide variety of citizen hobbies were displayed for several days and wonders if such an affair could be arranged agaii, for thîs year. She would like to contact anybýie interested in such a project. Her 'phone nunmber is MA 3-3587. Please cail between 3 and 6:30 p.m., or write to Hobby Corner, c/o The :,,Çanadiah Statesman, P.O. Box 190. t1 "V TOSE HANDY JEEPS We couldn't help thinking on Tuesday night that the Jeep was one of. the greatest inventions of this age. In war they were the ideal vehicles for ail manner of pupses and in peace they have carried right on being0useful. On Tuesday, members of the Town Wors Dept made quick work of spreading salt along the sidewalks. Back end of the Jeep was filled with sait and driven along the sidewalks while two men walked behind, spreading the ice- rnelting produet. t t.i. t. i WRECK TRADING POST - Cousin Glenn "Jesse" James who runs a Trading Post at Welcome as well as a furnîture store in Port Hope had trouble Iast week. The intenior of the Trading Post look- ed as though it had been -hit by a cyclone. Appar- ently, two Port Hope men, one 30 and another 17, had a most enjoyable (to them) time. They were arraigned in court last Friday and convicted. One of the items damaged and irreplaceable was the guest book containing names of visitors from ahl over the world. You can't help wondening what gets into people to do such crazy things. ** t OPENING SOON ? - Bowmanville Public School Board will meet tonight at Central School when one of the items on the agenda probably will be the impendîng opening of the new Lord Elgin School. Engîneers and school authorities from al over Canada and the U.S.A. have a particular interest in this school because of its unusual heat- ing system. It wîll use electric power instead of gas, oil or coal. HEAT 'EM UP - A news release from Ontario Hydro tells about an interesting experiment they tried during the big ice storm a couple of weeks ago. This is net te be confused with the lesser one that hit thîs area on Tuesday. Between Barrie and Kitchener the ice was twô tb three inches thick and pear-shaped on part cf the 70- mile cireuit. They were able to concentrate over 1,300 amperes of electric current inte this section, heating the wires and nwlting the ice. 'Unfortun- ately, this expeniment, neyer before attempted in Ontario, was only feasible on these two lines. t t t i. t A SAD NOTICE - His many friends, in the Orono district and those formerly with the Midland Regiment, will be shocked and very sorry te learn thât Major P. J. Bigelow's wife died on Monday in Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto. She had been 111 for some time. They have four 'kchildren, Willa 19, Allen 16, Ross 14 andl Nadine 9. W'Mr. Bigelow is Principal cf the Port Hope High School. The funeral was helal yesterday with inter- ment in Lang Memorial, Orono.
