Ruth Seora expresses gratitude to all who sent flowers fruit and cards and visited during illness. Special thanks go to Drs Parker and Swail and the nursing staff of MacGregor Hospital and Mrs. Wm Leckie for support.
D. S Thomson and George A Mueller inspect Canada's strongest diesel, the 2400 horsepower Trainmaster handed to Canadian Pacific at Kingston. It tops 75 mph and outpulls prior CPR engines, suited for freight or passenger service and to be tested on the Montreal Saint John line and later on the Ketel Valley Division.
Local column reports visits and stays by residents and guests including Bill Critchlow in Birtle, Mrs. Currie of Rivers at J. Currie home, and Gordon Currie now employed in Rivers. Birth announced for Jack and wife McMillan, mention of honey show trophy winner Fann in, plus health note on Arthur Doubleday.
The column shares simple home tips and thrift ideas.

Practical hacks include cutting squares from worn ironing boards to make pot holders and binding them with bias tape.
