Flt.-Sgt. John Owens, son of Mr. and Mrs, Herman Owens
of Town is Missing Overseas.
The war cast a dark shadow on another Lindsay home when a telegram from the R.C.A.F. casualties officer at Ottawa transmitted the sad news on Sunday that Flight Sgt. John Charles Owens son of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Owens, 88 Glenelg St. W. is missing following operations overseas.
Jack as he was familiarly known, is a graduate of the L.C.I, and Peterboro Normal School. He taught school very successfully at Wilberforce and Eden for three years after which he became a salesman in the Manufacturer's Life Insurance Co., stationed at Uxbridge and later at Oshawa. During these years Jack made many friends and exerted a great influence on all with whom he came in contact especially the boys of The Trail Rangers at Uxbridge who adored their leader.
His many friends and those of the anxious family can but hope for better news in the near future,
A younger brother. Lieut Sidney Owens of the R.C.N, is stationed at Cornwallis N.S.
