Nind, Miss Frances Hull, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. R. Hull, of Port Perry, to Mr. A. J. Stone, of Hornsby, Ont. --_------------ CONGRATULATIONS On Saturday, November 7th, Mr. William Hern, one of Port Perry's most familiar figures, celebrated his 84th birthday. Mr. Hern was born in Devonshire, England, and came to Port Perry when he was ten years of age, and has been a resident ever since. He is not only one of our oldest residents, but is the oldest Freemason, having been a member of that order for 56 years. Mr. Hern is in good health and en- joys his daily walk about town. -------- PPP. A WONDERFUL ADVANCEMENT Since early July, the Copeland Flour Mills Limited, Midland, have been packing flour in pre-closed paper bags by automatic machine, and success- fully shipping to baking establish- ments in carload lots. R. J. Pinchin of the Copeland Mills, in answer to enquiry, emphasized that the project had long since passed the experimental stage, being now a routine operation with them. He termed it a welcome improvement in the eyes of a number of large baking plants served by this mill. "The movement of flour to bakeries" said Mr. Pinchin, "has long been in units of a half-barrel or 98 Ibs., each, the container being a fabric affair--some- times of cotton, but in Canada more often burlap. Anyone who will take the trouble to observe the difficulty of speedy filling and closing of such bags at the mill, the porous nature of the material and the consequent exposure of a vital foodstuff to contamination and the absorption of ordors in transit, the generally uncleanly and clumsy behavior of the bag in the baker's hands will understand why progres- sive flour millers have long wished for a better all-round container for this service, After two months' intensive work and co-operation with the Bates Valve 'Bay Company, the Copeland Mills are now filling three 98-1b bags a minute without human hands coming in con- tact with the flour, and shipping to their baker customers the cleanest, fullest units that they have ever seen. These new multi-walled valved bags of Kraft paper retain the natural moisture and flavor of the flour from CHURCH Rev. E. E.
