Dresden is a toWn, of about 1,700 and is situated about lZ‘miles n01 th of Chatham on the Sydenham River, in the Countyo of Kent. It is in a good part of the country and has a number of active industries such as lumbering: hOOp and stave making and bent wood, hub, spoke, saw and planing mills, basket and canning factories, evaporators, foundry ,and' flour mills. It,con,tains five church- es, two schools, Public‘ Library and a Town Hall Seating 500. In his new charge, Mr. McEwen will have no outside appointment, which eliminates the necessity of keeping a-horse' or 'an automobile if he so desires.
