Wednesday, July 18, 1945 THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE *-'-i^ AT HOME AGAIN This story is told by two Canadian repatriates, Juhan lilock and liis wite, recently arrived from France, and to whom Canadian Red Cross assistance it "beyond words". After all the difficulties and hard- ships we have gone through, to be home again is an almost ovenvhelm- ing experience. It has given us a feeling of warm welcome to have the Red Cross in Canada send us a hearty letter of good wishes. We have had visitors and visitors day in and day out and it has been hard to find a peaceful moment in which to tell what Canadian Red Cross over- seas has done for us as soon as we got in touch with them. We arrived in Paris on the 2th day of Nov. 1;>44, where we first got in touch with the C.R.C. and without whose help it would have been prac- hospital treatment. I have often ask- licaliy impossible to get any farther. Just imagine two young people com- ing up to the Canadian Embassy in Paris with pale faces, clothes dirty and torn and half starved, with years of hardships and misuse marked on our faces, The C.R.C. through Ma- dame Vanier, the wife of the Cana- dian Ambassador to France, too change of us personally and we will never forget with what kindness anu helpfulness in every respect we have been treated. First of all we werr well fed and clothed which is ver. hard to get in Europe and we coula not have 'bought with money because it is all. rationed in Ji^rance. Then we were taken to a doctor. Captain Evans, who examined us and found that wt were suffering from malnu- trition and joint rheumatism and overtaxed nerves. Thanks to the C.R.C. we were both in fairly goo<l shape in six weeks' time. We had warni clothes, had lots to eat, and ; ♦♦t>*#*<<«i» H |i H i* t |i|i | . H .

To tell you the truth I can- not answer this question. I can only say that we are so grateful for the help which nobody else was in a pos- ition to give us that we will never forget it. The C.R.C. also got in touch with my family here in Canada to let them know of our whereabouts and our welfare and on all the trip till we reached our home, in every sta- tion and everywhere, there was the C.R.C. already expecting us, to help us in every way possible. Before I close 1 woujd like to say that the C.- R.C. is one of the best Organizations hat I have ever known. There are thousands of people that have gone through the same experience as we have and I am sure J;hat they feel the same way as we do. The^e are also thousands more that will need the help of the C.R.C. to continue their journey in life, especially in Europ . We certainly can be proud of this Orangization and the able and willing helpers in it for they are al- ways on the spot. So let us thank each and every one of you for your part and your share of work you have done and are still doing. PIONEER TRAVEL IN WEST ONTARIO Local and Persuodl BOOKS AT LIBRARY Chick Starter Growing Mash Poultry Concentrate Laying Mash Fattening Mash Pig Starter During June, July and August Store will be OPEN Wednesday Evenings and CLOSED all day Thursday. F. H. W. Hickling Another word this week on pion- eer travel in Western Ontario as early as in 1852. The nearest sta- tion was Buffalo. To take the tram there, the settlers drove in wagons withput springs, all the way from their home to Buffalo. The roads in spring were muddy indeed. They were a hardy, cheerful lot, our an- cestors of those days- There was great rejoicing in this end of On- tario when the railroad put in a station at Ingersoll, a few years later. The women, as well as baking all their bread, made maple sugar for the household. It was a common thing for a cake of it to be made as large as a cheese. Then the house- wives also wove woollen goods fo clothes, blankets, and made thei: own yarn. Needles and thread were zealously guarded for, if mislaid, the men of the house had to bring more, by woodland trail, from a store often as far as forty miles away. .^nd now we hear the new cars are to have rubber springs that will be the last word in comfort; the upholstery is to be made of plastic that wiTl be fireproof, and if they do nat go sixtv miles an hour, we will be indignant! â€" Aylmer Ex- press.
