Of course we all hope that we will never need to use it ourselves but it will be a comfort to know that a, loeal service is available for those who are unfortunate enough to be seriously ill or injured. Charles Brignal, Jr. has had his sedan converted into an ambulance in a very ingenious manner. By making the side post so that it can be removed and swung out with the door, he has made the interior of-the car easily ac- cessible for the comfortable stretcher which is held- firmly in place inside the car. The car has also been equipped with a red light. Charlie, who has done most of the work of reconverting the sedan is to be con- gratulated upon the really profession- al appearing job 'he Kas turned out, and we know that many people in the village 'and surrounding district will have occasions (however wuch we re- gret the occassions) for being very thankful to Charlie for this service, Permits and F ges For Plumbing in Cartwright Twp.

Silk Although up to 1200 people may be idled for: the time being, there will be many opportunities for re-employment in the installation of equipment in the new south plant. At the present time a section of this new passenger car assembly plant is running on a full schedule, It is' not affected by the man-power decrease, ; Some temporary interruptions of | top level production was inevitable in any case this year, the lompany said, because of long-established plans for a mid-year transfer of operations to the vast. new assembly plant in South Oshawa, As to the market, an official said that car sales are mounting and' although the volume is still off from its usual season peak, General Motors is leading: substantially in total re- gistrations and Chevrolet sales top all other individual passenger car makes Employment at Oshawa is now two and one-quarter times as great as in the, immediate post-war year, Even after adjustment it will be twice as large and by 'the time the new plant is operating, the level of erfiployment will be back to two and one-quarter times the 1946 foree. In the north plant the day shift on the passenger car lines will be in- creased by some 20 per cent. and sche- dules will be stepped up. T he night shift will be discontinued. Truck lines continue as at present, ; Among the men immediately affect- ed many are temporary cmployees. and very few with more than a full year's seniority will be laid off. Many are non-residents.
