THE HAILEYBURIAN Vol. 37; No. 27 HAILEYBURY, ONTARIO THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25th, 1941 Subscription Rate: $2.00 per year Twenty-Nine From Temiskaming Octogenarian Hurt Will Greet Men Serving Overseas Recording Late Yesterday Evening at Kirkland Lake Through Arrangement By New Lisl d Post of Canadian Legion; Broadcast on October 16th; Four From Haileybury Twenty-nine citizens of Temis- kaming, ranging in age upwards from six-year-old John Turnbull of New Liskeard, yesterday even- ing were on the program prepar- ed at Kirkland Lake radio station and which included greetings to 36 other residents of this part of the province of Ontario, now in Britain. The occasion was the first broadcast to Canadian troops overseas sent from Northern On- tario, and was arranged through the efforts of the New Liskeard Post of the Canadian Legion, with the assistance of other persons in this district. Due recognition of this help will be made at the meeting of the Post tomorrow evening, and at the gathering formal votes of thanks will be passed to all who helped to organize the effort. So far as the local headquarters were concerned, arrangements had been made to have them leave New Liskeard not later than 6.15 yes- terday afternoon. The actual re- cording was to take place at eight o'clock, H. H. Scott, secretary of the Legion Post, said before lea- ving. Fifteen of the senders of mes- sages came from New Liskeard. There were four from Haileybury two from Cobalt, three from En- glehart, three from Tomstown and one each from Hanbury and Earlton. In some cases, the speaker had a message for more than one soldier now in Britain, and in one instance where two sons of one family are overseas, the mother of both and the wife of one of them were on the broad- cast. The record had to be in Ot- tawa not later than October 4th, and the actual sending over the air is set for October 18th. Each participant on the program: was furnished witha copy of the agenda prepared at a meeting of the Post committee last Friday evening. At that time, the mes- sages received were tested witha view to determining how they would meet the limitations of the eight minutes' time allowed for this section. It was found that, at average speed of talking, all messages could be included in the time at the disposal of the com- mittee, and expectation was that everything would go off smooth- ly. Time for a rehearsal was ex- pected to be available and the committee hoped before leaving that all senders had memorized their messages completely. The messages are private com- munications between senders and recipients and for the most part followed orthodox lines. In one case, the information that 37 En- glehart boys were now overseas was given, in another the hope was expressed Christmas would see a couple united and in yet a third a private family "blitz" by the reunion of the soldier's five sisters was mentioned. A sis- ter is counting the days until her brother will be home again and} there was one message in French. Young John Turnbull told his dad he was now going to school and liking it. Two wives sent birthday greetings to their hus- bands, and one mother to her son. The complete list of senders and recipients is: > From Cobalt--Mrs.' Jas.
