RECENTLY ONE OP OUR FRIENDS FROM ACROSS the line was standing on the sidewalk in one of our larger Canada cities viewing a march past of some of our soldier boys Kilties were going by How typically are the kilties he remarked on our side of the big pond associate the Highland uniform u much with Canada as with Scotland Why is it The reply was to that St was because the Scot4 had contributed bo largely to the settlement and upbuilding the Dominion and so many Canadians of Scottish ancestry made themselves worthy of high ranks in the history of Canada Among these Canadians of Scotch parentage who have place among Canadas great builders of industry we must recked Gordon M McGregor of Ford Ont About the year 1850 Mr McGregors grandparents set oat from Glasgow Scotland to settle in what was then a new and far away country Canada A few years later we find them located at Sarnia Ontario Where a son William was born When still a young man William McGregor took a very active interest in tho business and political life of the country and was elected a member of the Dominion Parliament serving ha country and his district well andfailhfully for twenty years Gordon McGregor about whom thisjs written was the son of William McGregor and was born at Windsor Ont As Gordon McGregor grew to manhood he capably assumed much of business cares of his father William McGregor eventually became interested in Wagon Co at Ontario and shortly after his son Gordon McGregor was made manager of the firm Here the son began to show that business foresight that has made him one of the prominent figures in the business world of Canada About this time an event took place in carriage and wagon industry that caused the greatest concern This was the advent and the establishment of the automobile as a practical vehicle Some dealers and builders were so alarmed that they thought their business would to immediate rack and ruin and that toe auto would horsedrawn vehicles entirely Others were coolheaded enough to see the advantages that this net industry afforded and governed themselves accordingly Among the latter was Gordon McGregor who believed that he could successfully enter upon tho business of manufacturing automobiles and looked about him for wise methodaof doing lliii He got in touch with many manufacturers and looked over many makes of cars Finally he decided on one make and effected arrangements for its production in this country The car he was the Ford He then tried to induce some of Ins friends in Canada to invest in the project and encountered all the usual cold disheart ening difficulties attendant upon the organization of a new and un tried proposition If they could have but looked ten or eleva years ahead he would have had no worries over the of a company even double or quadruple the size No stock was offered for sale outside of the Dominion unt all Canadians had been given an opportunity to subscribe Finally in August 1904 they organized the company with a capital of Then came the difficulties of manufacture and for three It was a constant struggle to win success But success came and a greater success than the ever dreamed of a success abounding in truly And this is the story of Gordon McGregor of Ford Ontario and of the establishment of the Ford Motor Company of Canaft Today half the population of four towns depend upon of Canada for their earnings These Ford City Tho last census states tat family consists five there over 3000 employees in towns mentioned above to manufacture of Ford cars this official census M over people that look to tho This docs not tho nine cities In Canada In which Ford branch 11 established which would add oyer more And Ford employes aro paid thrco times a well as average government wage In April 1916 tirno most Canadian manufacturers a retrenchment present Ford schedule of wages which company virtually handed to wages and reduced working hours from nino to eight per day ft Surely this is a great boon to Canadian workmen and their farnO Is a boon to Canadian merchants who benefit by increased purely power of oil these families It Is a boon to tho eat country la umeoM when living expenses higher than ever And employees responded hi like to the for her support Ford City having made what is record contribution to Patriotic Fund of per capita More than 800 Ford enlisted for overseas Company la thousands of dollars In moving pictures warn offered free to assist in recruiting work all over the Dominion What an expression of confidence In tho ulUmato and success of British Arms and tho allied cause was this great wage Wjg But It was not tho only evidence of Ford Companys faith In before the outbreak of hostilities the company decided to reduce J of car by When war upon us the company might been pardoned for withholding this reduction for a But they considered it Tho reduction was made tho aamo day war declared And you can realize how real this confidence In the victorious of Canada was when you consider that prices of Ford cars are in with the estimated production for the coming fiscal year and not means aro tney based on the profits of preceding year Have a Pattern DIP view In Wlr
