Treasures Form Link With Past MORRISBURG, Ont. (CP)-A regional museum may be set np to reserve the strong thread of his- ry, much of it tied closely to the earliest settlement of Upper Canada, which runs through the section of eastern Ontario to be flooded by the St. Lawrence ssea- way and power project. . al decision on the museum and other phases of an over-all plan to safe the historical associations of the area rests with an advisory committee in Toronto. James Smart, a retired federal employee whose family connections in the seaway strip go back at least four generations, is drawing up a blueprint for the master plan. He will submit his recommendations to the committee. Hired shortly after his retirement as director of the national parks branch of the federal government, he has made a painstaking survey of the entire 10,000 acres to be flooded SUGGESTS MUSEUM Mr. Smart, making a pictorial record for his own files, is con- vinced a museum would be best and most logical way of col- lect! the historical specimens and documents of Dundas, Stor- mont and Glengarry counties. He is sure from his own studies that many of the old homes hide valu- able historic specimens, tucked away in attics. Probably the district's most fa- mous historical monument marks the site of the War of 1812 battle of Crysler's Farm, five miles west of here. In that, battle, the United States raiders were driven back across the river in November, 1813, by a small British force and the Canadian county militia. The site of Upper Canada's first Protestant church also will dis- appear under the water of the Long Power 1, along with scores of lesser landmarks. ' But Mr. Smart says their mem- ory can be preserved through pho- tographs, charts and drawings. Old farm implements could bg collec- ted and displayed. He says there are Indian sleds, old cider, presses and even an ancient Dutch oven awaiting rediscovery. Swine Auction Record Is Set MILTON (CP)---An Ontario re- cord for swine auctions was set Monday when the Kelmscott herd of E. L. Taylor was sold here. The 206 lots went Jor 2 total of $34,078, an average oO ! The sale was originally slated for Hays Sales Arena at Oakville, but an outbreak of hog cholera re- sulted in a change. Some 50 swine sold to United States bidders will be held by Mr. Taylor. 'STop price at the sale was $2,300 for an imported boar, one of the best animals in the Kelm- scott herd of English Yorkshires. Windsor Boyd, Opposes Rate Equalization WINDSOR, Ont. (CP)--A cham- ber of Commerce brief presented to the board of transport commis- sioners Monday opposed the pro- posed freight rate equalization plan and sought special consideration for Windsor in view of its geo- graphic location. - The brief, one of seven pre- sented by various Western Ontario firms and organizations during the one-day hearing, outlined three al- ternatives to the proposed rates system scheduled to come into ef- fect next Jan. 1. There is a fixed rate now for all shipments to the western prov- inces which originate within the Montreal-Toronto-Windsor area. Under the proposed new set-up rates would be assessed on a mile- age basis. In terms of the new rates sched- ule Windsor, despite its proximity to western points, would have higher shipping costs than say Tor- onto because freight from here must travel 240 miles east to Tor- onto before startisg the westward haul. Alternatives suggesf®d by the Chamber of Commerce were: 1. A rates table which would base rates on Canadian lines sim- ilar to the shorter, actual mileage through the United States to west- ern points from Windsor. 2. A rate schedule based om water mileage from Windsor to the Lakehead and then via rail to the west. 3. Maintenance of the present "group" system which maintains a blanket freight rate for the area included in the Montreal-Toronto Windsor region. Other briefs, generally in agree- ment with the chamber's presenta- tion but with minor variations, were presented by Chrysler Cor- poration of Canada; H. J. Heinz 0., Leamington; Dow Chemical and Polymer Corporation, both of Sarnia; Producers Cold Storage of Windsor and Brunner-Mond Can- ada, Ltd., Amherstburg. L. J. Childs appeared for Poly- mer Corporation and J. S. Handy- sides represented Dow Chemical. Mr. Handysides said that if his company's shipping rates were in- creased "and those of our com- petitors decreased, it may force us to withdraw from some mark. ets in Quebec and the Maritimes." SHARE-THE-WORK PLAN BRANTFORD (CP) -- The 2,200 employees of Cockshutt farm Equipment Company Ltd. began a share-the-work plan Monday as an alternative to the laying off of large numbers of employees. A company official said the factory will work three days this week, five days next week and continue with this plan for an indefinite period. The plan was made neces- sary by export market conditions. rR KIDNEY "dl 'E anp TIRTP a1 IH rt! 0 RINARY IRF Ff 0 Ep DISC 1%: Greatest Gasoline Development in 31 Years *Patent applied for THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Wednesday, June 10, 1953 § A TCP a Shell-discovered additive, now blended into Shell Premium 'Gasoline, puts an end to the greatest cause of power loss. Acts so rapid- ly engine power is increased up to 15% after using two tankfuls or less. A new day in fuel for the Canadian motorist is here--a day which, for the first timé, allows him to get the full power built into his engine. Prior to Shell's discovery of TCP, the natural by-products of fuel combustion accumulating on spark plugs and in combustion chambers caused spark plugs to misfire and the fuel mixture to pre-ignite-- especially when accelerating, hill climbing or touring on the open highway. To overcome this power-wasting, fuel-wasting condition-- prevalent in the majority of cars--Shell Research discovered and developed a gasoline additive, TCP. Blended into Shell Premium Gasoline, TCP prevents these deposits from causing misfiring of the spark plugs and, at the same time, controls pre-ignition. For the average motorist, this means a power boost of up to 15%, an increase in spark plug life of up to 150%, plus an increase in miles per gallon! These facts . have been established by over a million miles of standard model road testing. Shell Premium Gasoline with TCP is the most significant Jot fue! advance since the introduction of tetraethyl lead n 1922. ' New and old engines benefit If you have a new car, particularly one with a high compression engine, Shell Premium with TCP is essential if you want it to keep on delivering its original power for the normal life of the spark plugs. But high-compression or not, Shell Premium with TCP keeps your engine working like new. Ownefs of oldar cars also benefit. Even if your car has gone 30,000 miles or more, your engine can get back much of its original power by the use of Shell Premium with TCP, Shell Premium with TCP acts fast So rapidly does Shell Premium with TCP counteract the deposits on spark plugs and in combustion chambers, you'll feel your engine's had a tune up before you've finished the second tankful. You'll enjoy that new car pep again! NOW IN CANADA But only at your Shell Dealer's TCP was originally developed by Shell Research for aviation fuels and until now has been largely restricted to military aircraft. = Today, Shell Premium with TCP is available in this area, but only. from your Shell Dealer. WANN HELL PREMIUM GASOLIN = The most powerful gasoline your car can use 9 vy !
