(Dick) Malowney Director of Education R.A.Spooner Chairperson of the Board (Part One) by Wes McGregor The years between 1854 and 1955 saw the Lindsay community enriched by three companies whose products carried these brand names: Curtin, Fox and Wagstaff. They offered employment employment opportunities. They also offered buyers of new_ homes and buildings lasting beauty plus greater safety by building with their fireproof product, brick. Besides, this enterprising trio increased revenues collected collected as property and business business taxes. They were as welcome as a reduction in personal income tax. So, we salute these men of vision who, while fostering fostering the economy, polished the town's public image across Ontario. We also sa lute the imaginative unknown unknown who stumbled over the revolutionary idea of clay bricks somewhere in the Middle East's Tigris- Euphrates valley 6000 + years aço.

He was right. Gradually they blossomed across the early Eastern world reaching England England about the first century and blessing America with her first brick building in 1633. No one knows when the first brick was made in Canada, Canada, likely the late 1700s or the early 1800s. This skill along with the potter's art was imported by immigrants from Scotland, England and Ireland who poured into this country during that period. At first these settlers shaped pots, pans, jugs, crocks, spittoons and other utensils for themselves and neighbours. Next came the moulding of hand-made bricks, again for their own use and as a sideline to farming. We may never know who made Victoria county's first brick or when this historical event took place. But we know who established the county's first important brickyard and a most successful successful one too. He was a big Irishman, one Patrick Curtin Curtin whose brickyard was located located on a farm south of Lindsay near the present in- CATERING Qualified Chef Will cater for all occasions.

Mike Stokes, the president president of the Canadian Union of Public Employees' (CUPE) Ontario Division, today today told the government committee that "the current recession is, without question, question, the worst to have hit the province since the Great Depression. In the first year alone, 214,000 jobs have ^The CUPE Ontario president president said those figures contrast contrast sharply with job losses of 89,000 in the first year of the 1981-82 recession. "And if those numbers aren't graphic enough for you," said Stokes, "of the jobs lost across the country this time around, Ontario has accounted accounted for 80 per cent of them." As a very real example of the financial uncertainty which CUPE members face in their day to day work lives, Stokes pointed to a recent recent situation at a nursing- home in Garson, Ontario. "Garson Manor," explained explained Stokes, "has switched hands numerous times in the last few years, and our members have become become accustomed to living their lives under a constant cloud of uncertainty. On one occasion earlier this year workers were presented with cheques for ten dollars in lieu of earned wages." As a result of the Mul- roney government's assault on social programs, many CUPE members in communities communities across Ontario have experienced the hardships of missed paycheques or an employer shutting down with monies owing for wages, wages, vacation pay, termination termination or severance pay. . "On behalf of our 150,000 members in Ontario CUPE strongly supports the Employee Employee Wage Protection Program Program introduced in the legislature legislature by Labour Minister Bob Mackenzie in April of this year," said Stokes. He told committee members members that "bankruptcy laws preventing workers from collecting collecting wages owed to them by employers who shut down and default on their legal legal obligations, simply have no place in a fair and decent society."

Two excellent books, OPS...Land of Plenty, edited by Mrs. Ross Carr and Early Ontario Potters by David L. Newlands, mention some early potters in Ops and a large pottery with several employees. With such precious clay available these artistic moulders, seeking to increase increase incomes, got busy making a variety of pottery utensils and selling them. This home industry gave to the area the name Pottery Corners. Now, while Curtin liked he could see for them a growing need and decided to go into the business business of making them on his farm. In those early days however however making and marketing this product was quite different different from the methods used to manufacture bricks today. Instead of forming bricks by machine, the brickman had to first hand- make his moulds and use his hands to pack the moulds, a slow process indeed. indeed. Selling his wares was different different too. Much of the brick was simply piled up in the yard awaiting buyers to come. Farmers from the area arrived with wagons and neighbours who loaded the bricks and likely helped to build the new barn or home. Brick orders for Port Perry, Fenelon Falls and Bobcaygeon, were usually large and delivered by the waterways, wagon or sleigh. Lindsay however was the best market as it was closer and meant larger orders. In fact, Lindsay gave Patrick a great head start in his brickyard brickyard ...one that called for extra workers ... For in the winter of 1854-55, he was to start delivering 600,000 brick for St. Mary's Catholic Church, Russell St. Patrick prospered using as many as 12 employees during the busy season. On his death, the brickyard was run by his son Francis. He in turn was followed by his son John who took over con trol until business started to drop off for two reasons. One, the supply of clay was thinning out and fierce competition competition from huge competitors competitors in Toronto, could deliver deliver faster and at times for less cost. Great grandson John Curtin who worked for his father in the brickyard during during summer and could likely mould a brick if he had to, was a well-known and re spected local businessman. Long may Patrick Curtin, and his family, be remembered remembered as the folks who brought the benefits of brick to the Town of Lindsay.
