 We choose Giiderich us our first town, because we lieanl such f.ivi.rahle reports of her. ami heciiiV^ 
 the picturesque aiid prouressive features of the town had never been prnperly broUUht before the public 
 We purpose doinu this as far as lies in our power, and we believe wherever these Karlandsuo they will show 
 the lieopW the prettii^t and healthiest town in the Dominion, as it really is. _ ^ ^^ -. 
 
 The success of this work is due in a yreat p..rt to the «entlemen who comprise the Citizens' Committee. Mr. A. McD. Allan, 
 Mr K N lewis, and others iKentlemen broad-minded. enthusiHstic. and willinu workers in anytliin« tendi.itf toward the uood 
 of their town. Kvery town In the country needs a citizens' committee. Then our photo«rapliic artist. Wr. W. K. S.illows. is 
 deserving of Kreat prai;e for the way in which he has held up his end of the work. It has never been our .experience to 
 eiri^^^aphotoKnipherWhotakess'ichan interest iu his profession, and who makes every view that comes from his st.uho 
 a bit of art We must th.mk the business and professional men who have m.de it possible to make this b.H.k a success. 
 (loderich is rich in her business houses, and the owners of private residences, both in doderich and the surrou,ulin« coun trv; 
 these gentlemen appreciatmu the fact that a residence is always artistic.have aided us pobly in the work. Fo the c-n»(ru ver>. lie 
 Canadian Phott, EnifravinR Bureau, of Tor.mto. Mc^^rs. Moore & Alexander. Proprietors, and the two newspapers "MMKUrKj. 
 th•'M•^,nd•• Star." we extend our sincere thanks; to the engravers for the excellence ,.f their work m the illuslrationi 
 ml the newspapers for the help derived from their co-oper..tion. And now we will leave our little work to the tender mercies^ o( 
 the p^iblic. hopiiiK that in a short time we will have helore them another work representative of some other progressive Ganadi.in

 lieopU- of Canada and the TlUjoiiynB Slates seem to appreciate this fact,

 world ; and the summer breezes that start at the upper end of !..ike Super-

 blue Lake Huron, arc the messengers of ^saltli and refreshing to all who

 ertlcreil hiH falhi-i's store, wjn-re he leariuHl the 
 'linsmilhin); trade in' All its brani'lies, Ifoi" . 
 year*, from I SKi, he was in this business with 
 his fattier, under tl\e linn iiJime' iif janics 
 Saunders & Son ; at the end of lliis linie llic_ 
 |>nrlnership dissolved, he liiliiiiK tlie sioves, tin- 
 \yare anil |ilund>in)r business until 1S112, wliejijie 
 purchased a third interest in the tloderich iVjfan 
 Co., beinK installed as inanager. M lliat time tlic failory employed 18 
 liaitdN, now it employs 58, a sure guarantee that" under Mr. Sauuder.'s 
 able rule the business lias ({really increased. Mr, Saunders has always 
 the town's host imercsts at liearl, and although, owiuK.lo his present 
 resiwnsible |iositions, he has very little liine,.slil! when calleil upon by iJic 
 .town he rcs|mnds . most heartily. He was a meinlier of Ihel'oiimil of 
 " i894-5-i6, and' was one. of the originators and chailer niemheis of the 
 Citizens' Committee i was also m:i'na>;er of the Opera House 3 years and 
 is a member of I he Oddfellows and Can.idi/in Order of. KoVesiers- The 
 Knox Pivshytcrian Church clninis hini as a nuMnber, where he .ilso is 
 su|H'rinteiident of the Sunday School. 
 
 Godericli is eertaiifly the home of some of the most progressive and 
 u|>-to-date business men in the country. 
 
 TliK CiODKRIt'li ORti.vs Cn.'s factory, of which we show a cut on the 
 opposite pnfife, was established in 1889 by The tioderich A>r>;.in I'o. Ltd., 
 composed of the citizens of the town ..»nd.sonie of the euipli>yees, who ran 
 it for three years .11 a loss, when ifi*i8»)i, March ist, it was purcliased by 
 its present owners, James Clark, J«mcs A. MacKay and Alex. Saunders, 
 the latter' beinj{ manager. 
 
 When the present firm ftoi possession the factory was cniployinK 
 
 eighteen hands, lo-d.iy the) arc employ iit^f sixty aiul are aildiiiK in then 
 stair as trade dcm.inds. They started in to make a slrulU hinh-Rr.ide 
 
 inslrnineni and iheir success is assured, as-to-day ihelr orK.'ins.nre anionic 
 the fiiiest in America. 
 
 They.werc the fiiNI tb intrinliice the piano case or^Jaiii and the lini!» 
 they make in these are Boms. They have Jn-en- c.uistanlly iiii|'irovin(C 
 their action iiiuil to-day their excellence is acUnowleilned by rveryinie. . 
 ' They are favorably located to purchase hiinbcr, ai\d ihet kcfp neai'jy a 
 million leet of all kinds, fronrone to three years' dryinx, so ilinl Ihey are 
 iible to turn out lirst-cJass (;oods. 
 
 The history of the 'orijan tnlde in Canada h.ts not Ihhmi one of un- 
 
 qiialilicd success, but the tloderich Orjfiin Co. liiis not met with any 
 
 ' reverses i seven orjjan factories haviiijffaileiL since they stalled, hut 
 
 theie is still room on top. They have Ihe piisli ami ener)jy necess-ov to 
 
 build up a lar^e trade, and ample means to develop- it as fist as the

 Spanish cataloKue in addition to their KuKlish edilioii. 
 
 In addition to ihe orRan depailnient, thev ni,inufactur>" thirty dilli'reiit 
 styles of I'iano and Or^an stixjls .iiid chairs, which they su4>pl> to the 
 niiisic trade frqm Vancouver to lljiljlax. They ,ilso are the larKest niiinii- 
 liictiirers of Hatb-room Wooil ^'ork in Canada, and practically furnish the 
 whole of the jobbiiiK trade in plumbiii({ su|>|'lies. The t|iialiiy of llwir

 The company show cuts of some of their leadinx lines of organs, stiM)ls

 The lumber comiraiiy of , Buclianao & Rliynas is too well known all over the county 
 to require inuch of an introduction here. With busineu) extendin); all over the Dominion, 
 and orders itoiirinK in fiom contractors, the 35 men enm|Ryed by this lirin are kept very busy. 
 The business manager'of the firni is Mr. James Buchan;hi, who. was born in Scotl.uid in 1836 and 
 came to America in 1854, locating ii't Cioderich aljout three years later. In 1K64, Mr. Buchanan

 tlie busiest men in town with his large practice ns physician anil his 
 . arduous tasks in liisc.ipaciiy as mayor. The grounds of l)r. Shnnnon"ii 
 residence are very large and splendidly laid out. The accompanying 
 cut is not large enough to lake in tlie he.iutiful lawn and fountain at 
 
 the aide, nor the broad grivel walks coveirti with grape vine* in the rear. 
 In fact, to thoroughly appi^eciate this beautiful home a person must see i1.

 A. Reid, who makes a specialty of staple dry goods, also reAdy made clothing. 
 Mr. S, J. Reid, thd manager, thoroughly underslaiids the buying of these goodii,
