Forges Street Approved At Session Of Council other industries in that it follows the same pursuits in peace as in war.This is due to the fact that farmers are engaged in producing food and clothing which is as necessary at one time as at another.If more food is required in wartime it is either because people are better fed or there is more waste.This was the gist of an address made here last night by the Hon.J.G.Gardiner, Federal Minister of Agriculture, as he spoke before a meeting of the Sherbrooke Junior Board of Trade at the Social Club.His subject was on agriculture before and after the war.Mr.Gardiner described the production of Canadian farmers thus: \u201cFarmers in Canada are pro- more logically.That the war brought unemployment to an end was expressed by the Minister.Ten years of preparation for war ended unemployment in Europe, and five years of preparation did likewise in Britain, Canada and the United States, with none of the democratic countries having changed their economic system or its systems of government.He said that it is not because agriculture in Canada is employing more people than before the war that those engaged in it are prosperous.Canada is producing fifty per cent more food with 500,000 fewer people employed in agriculture, but fewer people are producing more and getting more per ducers in food rather than fibre for] unit, according to

production, he said one could give a historical re-iview of the development of Can-'adian farming \u201cand relate your experiences in this section of Quebec to that development.\u201d The veteran Minister of Agriculture then added: \u201cWe are in a very middle period which in the space of not more than thirty years will determine whether we have learned anything from past history, which can help us solve the problems of agriculture.The problems of agriculture have always been associated with production and distribution, he continued.The causes of these problems and their solutions have

everything Canada can supply which is resulting in better returns.Declaring that anything which destroys human life lessens the demand of food, he said that there is more destitution leading to starvation and greater destruction of human life existent in this war-torn world than ever before from any cause.\u201cThose who compare this period \u2018of blood, sweat and tears\u2019 with the

the past fifteen years, and the next fifteen years will probably prove whether they would be beneficial.Mr.Gardiner dealt with the cause of the ten years of depression, saying that no one who has followed the history of the fifteen years preceding- the war can doubt that it was the determination of the nations of Central Europe to continue the war which caused the depression.\u201cIn trying to render themselves self-sustaining, they first denied others access to their country and then compelled their own people to provide for themselves irrespective of cost,\u201d he said.This idea, the war to the disadvantage of the latter, can only be the countries which .have not realized the impact of war.\u201d Countries thinking in these terms will have very little influence at a peace table surrounded by men whose countries have been blasted by war, he warned.The Minister stated that a well-fed peaceful world provides the greatest demand for food, and if the world is to be properly fed there must be the greatest production and the best organized and freest possible distribution of food in the post-war period.According to the speaker, \u201cprinciples of the Atlantic Charter applied to world production and dis- speaker maintained applied to food j tribution are the only permanent production and affected every surplus food producing country in the world and \u201cnone more so than Canada.\u201d Listing causes resulting in unemployment, the Minister stated that it was the policy which for the time being brought about a condition in countries like Germany and Italy, where there was little unemployment.This is the policy, he maintained, always employed by nations preparing for war, because \u201cit strengthens them and weakens their peace-loving victims.\u201d \u201cSome examined the conditions within the countries in question and found their system of government or economic systems different from ours and concluded that there was no need to search for further solutions and began advocating a change in ours,\u201d Mr.Gardiner continued.\u201cBut after almost five years of war we can look back over ton years of economic warfare and preparation by our enemies for a fighting war and five years of actual waging of war while we (the Allied Nations) solution in this respect during the next ten years period.\u201d Mr.Gardiner was introduced by Gilles Desroches,

Last Evening.Inspired by the benevolent gesture of the Schubert Mrisic Club in presenting its annual benefit concert for the V.O.N., all members very happily co-operated in sparing no effort io make this popular event not only a success financially, but presented an altogether pleasing and varied programme.Seldom has the City Hall Auditorium, which has recently been redecorated, looked mure inviting, the simple but artistic stage decorations, tall standards and low baskets filled with graceful branches of cherry blooms and golden cowslips, lending a springtime atnu sphere and forming an ideal setting for the many colorful evening gowns worn by the artists, who so generously gave \u201cof j their best\u201d to help the V.O.N., and en passant, reflected pride in their own \u201cClub.\u201d Mrs.Norman Flint acted as cashier, while Miss Norah Lcomml, the Club\u2019s programme convener, and Mrs.Wright Gibson, were in charge of their department.Two charming young ladies, Mrs.Gerald Spafford and Miss Phyllis Armstrong, acted most efficiently as ushers, and Mrs.H.S.Armstrong, President, acted informally as official hostess and supervisor.The programme throughout was well arranged and varied, each and every number nobly contributing its share towards the completion of a truly delightful whole, for which the large audience expressen its appreciation in hearty applause.The artists individually need no introduction, for all are popular favorites within the large circle of Sherbrooke\u2019s music lovers, but as there are exceptions to every rule a few comments on the ensemble \u201cCanada Has Company,\u201d words and music by Mrs.L.E.Codere, will meet with kindly response in the.hearts of all who once more paid loving tribute to the composer last evening.During the entire ensemble, two jAir Cadets from the 67th Squadron, I stood at attention, standing on j either side of John Codere who ca.p-I ably acted as director, while con-j granulations were later showered on Mips Margaret Doherty, who sang the solo part.j The violin solos by Horace Boux, with Adrien Leblanc acting as his accompanist, were quite outstanding, while the piano duet, \u201cRondo Capriceioso, MondeUso-ho, played on two pianos by Mrs.L.E.Codere and Mrs.Irene Olivier Leveque, was a perfect gem, satisfying even the most fastidious of critics.There were no encores and generally this rule is appreciated, for at times it is abused, and on the whole the efficient arrangements for the Club\u2019s annual V.O.N.benefit were heartily approved by the patrons who so much enjoyed this annual musical treat last evening.The programme follows : Piano Duo\u2014(a) Minuet, Sonata in G Major (J.Christian Bach), (b) Torch Dance, Henry Eighth (Edward German), Josephine
