Tomato Juice Packed Here Enjoyed By Men In Italy
Tomato juice, packed at the Benson Canning Co,, is being enjoyed by Canadian soldiers in Italy, according to a letter received by Mr. W. H. Benson from Cpl. A. W. Still. He enclosed a label from one of the cans, and wrote:
Well I guess that good things sure get around. I was quite surprised when a chap, originally from Montreal asked me to have a drink of home town produce and Benson’s at that. It brought back pleasant memories of the time I worked at the factory in Picton on the filler. I wish I was just going in to draw one of your pay checks right now. Maybe I’ll get the chance again some day. Five years is a long time to be away, probably won’t know the old town. You most likely won’t remember me but I used to work for Hanson Huff (Colliver & Huff) just prior to joining the army in ’39. I’ll wind up hoping to be able to enjoy a glass of Sun Joy tomato juice in Picton soon.—Arthur Still.

BELL PRESENTED GLENORA CHURCH
Mr. John Barram presented the Glenora Church with a lovely bell last week. Mr. Teskey with the aid of a few of the members, erected it Saturday and it was rung for the first time Sunday evening. Much appreciation is due Mr. Barram for this kind gift, also for his unfailing interest in Glenora Church. As the church is erected on a high hill, the bell may be heard for quite a distance calling worshippers to service. Since the reopening service on June 18th, there has been a large crowd in attendance every Sunday evening.
