The driver was not injured. morning near Utica and it was several hours before Every cloud has a silver lining. Truck driver George Burt found that there is some truth to the old saying when he ran into difficulties last week on the highway just west of Manchester. Just after midnight last Wednesday, he was wheeling his tractor-trailer east towards Port Perry when a tire blew on his truck. After changing the flat he was just about to pull away when a second tire on the truck went down. Another truck was sent out, but as the trailer was being jacked up to hook onto the new truck, the jack gave way and the trailer toppled over onto its side in the ditch. The rear doors of the -_trailer were jarred open and part of the 25,000 pounds of boxed chicken and spare- ribs spilled onto the ground. Afraid to leave the trailer and cargo unattended George spent a lonely and rather chilly night in the cab of his truck. The next morning he was still waiting for a crane to arrive to right the trailer, and for the com- When you buy Canadian-made products, you create jobs in Canada. That's why Ontario urges you to Shop Canadian. | Every time you buy something, look for 'Made in Canada' identification because when you buy products made in Canada, you create work for Canadians. For example. .. « if you spend $500 on a Canadian- made sofa, you create about 3 days work for Canadians. + if Canadians increase their purchases of Canadian-made clothes by only'5%, it would create more than 4,000 new jobs. The more Canadian products Your Ontario Ministry of Industry and Tourism wants you to know that buying Canadian products benefits all of us in Ontario; it boosts our economy and maintains our standard of living. So when you shop Canadian, you'll be giving Ontario a more prosperous New Year. we buy, the more jobs we create. eb Larry Grossman, Minister of Industry and Tourism William Davis, Premier Province of Ontario Trailer tips, dumps load of chickens pany, Wills Transfer, to figure out how to get the boxes of chicken and ribs to their destination in Ottawa. The silver lining was the friendliness that passers-by showed, with several stop- ping to ask if they could do anything to help. One man drove George into town to let him use the phone, and a nearby resident brought him hot coffee and breakfast in the morning. "It is nice to know there are still some decent people around," said George last Wednesday morning. Two heavy tow trucks were dispatched to the scene, and by late Wednes- day afternoon they had succeeded in righting the over-turned trailer and hauling it away. Church gets new name Commencing Sunday, December 3, 1978, the Uxs bridge Full Gospel Fellow- ship will acquire a new name and a new location. The Fellowship is the youngest church group in Uxbridge, having begun some 2! years ago, and recently acquired a two-acre parcel of land on Scugog 7th Concession, east off Durham 23. The church building, to be erected next Sprinz, will be just a road's width outside of Uxbridge, hence the need for the new name: Em- manuel Full Gospel Fellow- ship. A temporary meeting place on the Billi Arm- strongs' property, which is adjacent to the new building site, will be used in the meantime. Emmanuel Full Gospel Fellowship is part of the Apostolic Church in Canada, which sprang from the Welsh Revival of 1904, and Rev. Stanley Hammond will continue as pastor. RY L . ! Ww 4 % | a L J | »
