regret that you have done se, as you should rather be ashamed of having acted otherwise SEVENTY-THIRD YEAR Good Sires States Speaker At Field Day Saturday Saturday was one of the few ideal days this Spring and the members of the Huntingdon-Ormstown Holstein Club enjoyed a very pleasant Field Day at the farm of Mr.J.J.Murphy, Huntingdon.There was a large crowd and keen interest displayed throughout the judging competition, especially was this noticeable among the juniors.After the Scoring Committee had completed their report the following were presented with prizes: Seniors: Charles Feeney, cane; Pringle, Stark & Co.; Sam Cullen, bill fold; John R.Walsh, pen and pencil; Junior ladies: Thelma Kelly, pen and pencil; Catherine Flynn, silver dish; Agnes Tessier, compact; Junior boys:

Bank of Montreal, Hun- tingdon, and donations from Martin B Fisher, M.L.A., and Donald Black, MP.are gratefully acknowledged Professor A.J.Ness of Macdonald College made the placings and explanations.\u201cIn this stable you will see a lot of pleasing looking cows, not fat but in excellent working condition with a lot of well-balanced, well-shaped udders.A bunch of cows bred and raised right here.The one way to get anything out of breeding to-day is to raise your own stock,\u201d said Prof.Ness.He congratulated Mr.Murphy upon the fact that he had commenced his herd on the R.O.P.He sald that everyone who possessed pure bred cattle should place them on test.Especially was this necessary if young hulls were raised as they must Jailed On Charges|, Of Illegal Entry Joseph Elisee Beaulac, 22-year-old former local farm laborer who told Malone authorities he crossed the international line contrary to his intention, was sentenced in Syracuse by Federal Judge Frederick H.Bryant to serve two months in the Franklin County jail when he pleaded guilty to a charge of illegal entry.Several days ago Beaulac was picked up in Malone when policemen detected something suspicious in the wanderings of a well-dressed youth with a heavy hand-bag on the almost deserted street at 4 a.m.Immigrant Inspector Brooks took the youth in custody.Beaulac said he had been at Hun- tingdon, and had gone for a ride with friends the night before.Before he knew what was happening, he said, his friends had crossed the line and driven to Malone.They left him there, according to his story.British And Foreign Bible Society Meet Glenelm Branch Hears Rev.Adams, Field Secretary, Give Address Special Service Held The local branch of the British and Foreign Bible Society met in the

Transport RE, of unknown origin, burned the rack and entire load on the Reid (Montreal-Huntingdon) Transport Trailer at Brysonville about 5 o'clock Wednesday evening.The truck, driven by H.Daniel, had just crossed the railroad trucks when the smoke was noticed.Before help could arrive the trailer was a mass of flames.Part of the load had been delivered at Brysonville and no smoke was seen at that time.But before the truck had gone 100 yards past the station the fire had gained.considerable headway.Spectators helped to put out the flames by carrying water in pails from nearby creek.but an order of automobile tires on the burning vehicle made the flames doubly hard to put out.Fortunately.a tank of naphthalene, also included in the load, did not explode.The entire load was covered by insurance

Ormsdale Rebekah Lodge on Friday night, in McDougall Hall, when a capacity house greeted the rising of the curtain.It is a story of romance, politics, social climbing intermingled with merriment.In all three Acts the theme was most ably dealth with and the comedy enjoyed by the audience.The interest in the play was well maintained throughout.All players gave a most realistic interpretation of their part and were equally at home on the stage.The character plot will best describe the play.Mary Stirling.the heroine enacted by Miss Luella McMillan, who saved the political situation of Lawrence

celebrated the sixtieth at Howick on Monday.They MRS.DAVID Vass anniversary of their marriage were married at Elgin in 1876.Hundreds Extend On Diamond We Congratulations dding Anniversary On Monday afternoon the friends of Mr.and Mrs.David Vass, Howick, feted them in honour of the sixtieth anniversary of their marriage.This is an honour that only a few live to attain, so nearly 175 friends, neigh- hours and relatives were present at their home on this occasion to congratulate them and to wish that they might still be spared for a long time to come.Mr.and Mrs.Vass were both born in Dundee in the year 1849 on adjoining farms.Mrs.Vass\u2019 maiden name being Lucy Smallman, daughter of Wm.Smallman and his wife Julia Ann Parlinger.One of a family of fourteen.only two of which survive.Mr.Vass was the eldest son of Thos.Vass and his wife Nancy Fraser, and is the only one left out of a family of eleven.Both are active in mind and body, despite their years, having retained all their faculties to a remarkable degree.On this occasion their four children were present, Thos., the eldest son, who lives with his parents; Mrs.Lee Cameron of Montreal; Wallace of Montreal and Chas.A.of Saranac Lake, N.Y.Five grand-children were also present, besides Mrs.Noel Reynolds of Dundee, who was bridesmaid at the wedding sixty years ago.The best man, Mr.T.W.Fraser, was unable to attend through sickness.Rev.G.W.Whillans, D.D.was master of ceremonies and after heart- | The Week Twenty Five M Expenditures A rich variety of subjects came to the fore during the week.\u201cMister Sage\u201d, the Wheat Board.United States trade figures, estimates totalling nearly $125.000,000 for unemployment and the Canadian National, Harbour Boards.and the appointment of Arthur B.Purvis of Montreal a3 the chairman of the National Employment Commission, were among the more interesting items.Fair pro- progress was made, although in both House and committee quibbling and political jockeying continue to exact heavy toll of time and energy.The government proposes to spend $124.748,743.(to give the sum to the dollar) on special expenditures in Lhe fiscal year which began on the first! of this month.This covers the fol-; lowing items, among others: Water conservation and reclamation on prairies, $1,184,000; Farin settlement placement and rehabilitation, $2.- £00,000; Expenditure in national parks, over $i,600,000; To provide better transportation facilities to mining areas.$1.500,000; Assistance to fisher- jes, $500,000; Elimination of railway crossings, $1,958,416; National Harbours projects, over $6,000,000, New and old geological surveys, $350,000.Included also were $26,000,000 for grants to the provinces to cover direct relief; $39,900,000 to cover deficits of the Canadian National Railways in the current year; projects started by the late government $30,418,341.The purpose of these special estimates, aside from the deficit on the Canadian National, is to look after the unemployment situation.Some of the projects would probably have been proceeded with in good times, anyway.but the basic idea is to employ as many persons as possible and to rehabilitate the drought stricken areas of the prairies.so far as that can be accomplished with the proposed expenditure.The trade figures between Canada and the United States are under close scrutiny these days because of the agreement which came into effect on January 1st.The first three months show a substantial gain in trade both ways, with Canadian produce going into the United States at a more rapid increase than the flow into Canada.To be precise, the exports to the United States for the first quarter were valued at nearly 70 million dollars, a gain of nearly 14 million dollars as compared with the first three months of 1935.Imports from the United States were valued at just over 85 million dollars in the same period, a gain of just over seven millions.The increases are particularly notable in cattle, cheese, lumber, whiskey and fish, which were leading items contained in the treaty.Government Will Spend One Hundred By Wilfrid Eggleston It is an interesting point that gains ily congratulating Mr.and Mrs.Vass on behalf of those assembled, read a number of letters from absent friends.A great many letters, telegrams and telephone calls were also received.Dr.Whillans then made a presentation of an envelope containing a substantial sum to the groom and a very beautiful bouquet of sixty roses to the bride, this being handed to her by her grand-daughter, Miss Martha Vass.Mr.Vass replied: \u201cI wish to thank God for sparing our lives beyond the three score and ten and even beyond the four score years allotted to man.I also wish to thank our friends, neighbors and relatives for this occasion in getting together to assist us in celebrating this the sixtieth anniversary of our marriage day.\u201cWe both are very pleased to have with us today the one who stood with us and witnessed the ceremony which took place in the Presbyterian parsonage in the township of Elgin sixty years ago, the Rev.John Loch- ead officiating.\u201cWe have been asked many times what we attributed the many years of our life together to.Our answer to this is that we have always taken good care of ourselves, or rather that my better half has always taken good care of me and I have always given ter her own way and allowed her to (Continued on page 4) at Ottawa © illion on Special During Year in imports.and serves as a commentary on the fear that Canada had given everything and received nothing, voiced by some critics after the agreement had been signed.The provinces are still in difficulty about their loans.Saskatchewan has an issue of $2,002,000 due on May lst, and British Columbia has an issue of $3,500,000 due on May 15th.Neither of them appear to have any provision made for these loans, and the market does not favor the disposal of provincial government bonds which would permit of refunding.Naturally uwder the circumstances there are once more appeals to Ottawa.But the federal government is taking the same stand as it did with Alberta.The same treatment is to he accorded to all.No more advances will be made without better security.The Dominion\u2019s credit must be protected\u2014ac- cording to the prevailing view

of leaders of the Orange Order motored from Montreal to Hun- tingdon to attend a special meeting of the local lodge.Among the visitors were the RW.Grand Secretary, L.W.Janes.R.W.Bros.J.Clark, of the Legislation Juvenile Lodges, G.Clifford.Although the meeting was called at short notice there was a good attendance of local members present and a spirit of opti- ; mism and enthusiasm was evi- | dent in the plans being made for the future of the lodge.| Interesting and informative ad- | dresses were given by the visitors and an enjoyable evening was | spent.| The Grand Secretary.in his address, touched upon the Mixed Marriage question and the school situation in Ontario as well as other matters of interest to the Order.Plans are being made for the holding of a public meeting of Protestants in the local Orange Hall the latter part of May or early in June, when prominent Orangemen from Montreal will address the gathering and a large delegation from the metropolis will pay a fraternal visit, Notice of this meeting will appear in this paper and those interested will be cordially welcomed on that occasion.Thankoffering By Ormstown Church Group Montreal Artists Presented Play In Presbyterian Hall Saturday The Easter Thank Offering meeting of St Paul's United WMS.Ormstown, took place Tuesday afternoon in McDougall Hall, with a full attendance of members and visitors.The President, Mrs.Pollock presided, the opening hymn, \u201cRejoice the Lord is King,\u201d was sung and Miss Welch and Mrs.Hastie had charge of the devotional exercises.The minutes of last meeting vere read and reports of various committee given.Mrs.G.T.Sadler gave an item on Temperance, A reading \u201cThe Origin of Spirltunls\u201d was given by Miss E.Sadler and was very interesting.À quartette consisting of Mesdames Anderson.Sadler.McNeil and Osmond very pleasingly rendered \u201cWere you there when they crucified my Lord?\u201d The Thank Offering was taken and dedicatory prayer by Mrs.W.G., McGerrigle.Mrs.Maither made a gracious speech, Introducing the guest speaker.Miss Christina McDougall of Montreal.whose address was most interesting, giving a vivid picture of her work among the strangers and newcomers.The account of work done in Copper Cliff told of the benefits derived from C.G.I.T., Mission Bands and 8.8.work.Mrs.Pollock extended a hearty vote of thanks to Miss McDougall which was seconded by a standing one.The meeting closed with prayer by Mrs.James Winter and singing of hymn 582.A social hour was enjoyed, afternoon tea being served.The tea table centred by white cyclamens was presided over by Mrs, George T.Sad- ler and Miss Mary Bazin.The entertainment held on Saturday evening in the Ormstown Presbyterian Church Hall, under the auspices of the Board of Managers drew a very large appreciative audience.The play, entitled the \u201cShow-Off,\u201d was presented by the Wayside Dramatic Club of Montreal, under the stage direction of Hugh McKellar and stage manager J.H.Overing.This play is generally recognized as one of the best comedies yet written by an American.While it was very amusing yet the audience found in it many incidents very true to life.The characters were real people and regulated loans to the provinces.The total advanced to the four western provinces has already passed the $115,000,000 mark.What will the provinces do?There is an unofficial report that Saskatchewan is agreeable to accepting the loan council idea, and that British Columbia is not.Ottawa had just about given up the loan council idea; it didn't seem as though any province wanted it.If one does, it will be necessary to create the council, or to evolve some substitute.It is by no means a completed task.this federal task of lending the provinces a hand to reduce the intolerable burden of interest costs.The \u2018bronchos\u2019 in the Liberai party were active again in the week advocating an easier monetary policy as one solution of unemployment.Hon.Charles Dunning, who is rather orthodox on these matters, sees in these suggestions just another form of inflation, to which, in the usual meaning of the word, he is opposed.Gerry McGeer of Vancouver made a lengthy documented speech in which he stressed the policies adopted by Great Britain and the United States, and called attention to the plight of the property-holder and the municipality, under the present era of deflation.W.A.Tucker of Rosthern made another radical plea for a more equitable treatment of different classes of investors, claiming that the bondholder\u2019s investment is held sacred even though other investors and home-owners have lost everything.It is a fairly popular theme on parliament hill these days.Mr.Tucker's closing words are fairly typical of this line of criticism: \u201cYou are selling out the home owner and the factory owner in order to in exports so far are well above gains they presented it in a real profes- THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER EIGHT PAGES Milk Producers Urged To Stick With Association For Their Own Benefit Over Two Hundred Members and Friends Of Montreal Association Attend Banquet at Howick Friday Over two hundred members and friends of the Montreal Milk Producers\u2019 Association attended the banquet held in Howick on Friday evening.AL the head table were Messrs, P.D.McArthur and W.W.Moore, President and Secretary of the Association; Mr.Marc Hudon, Sccre- tary of the Quebec Dairy Commission; Mr.Gilbert McMillan , President of the National Dairy Council, and Mrs, McMillan; Donald Black, M.P, and Mrs, Black; Rev.A.B.B.Moore and Mrs.Moore: Mr.W.L.Carr, Vice-President of the Assocla- tion and Mrs.W.L.Carr, and Mr.John Craig, who acted as Chairman.A varied and original programme of Scotch songs and character skits was provided throughout the evening by Mr.Billy Sellars and his troupe.Mr.Craig, in a short address, referred to the undoubted benefits provided by the Montreal Milk Producers\u2019 Association since its organization.In recent months it has succeeded In maintaining a fair marker for milk while other products such as hay.grain, timothy seed, etc, had been unsaleable.Mr.Black had promised Lo get a market for these as soon as they got the Government going but as yet, it didn't seem to be going so good.Cheers.With this friendly introduction, the Chairman presented Mr.Donald E.Black, M.P.as the first speaker.\u201cWhen I came here to-night my intention was not to make a political speech but the last time I spoke in Howick it was at a political meeting.It really feels good to face you people who look so prosperous, sitting down to such a fine meal, as we have had tonight.Our part of Canada has come Lhrough the depression better than any other part of Canada.After listening to the stories of the members from the West you would not say that right here we had a depression at all.\u201cI don't altogether agree with Mr.Craig.He would have sold all his hay if it hadn't been for the embargo put on by the previous Government.Trade 1s increasing under the Treaty.The increase in our imports from the United States in the first two months of its operation as compared with January and February 1935, was $5.- 605,000.The increase in our exports to the United States in the same period was $8.732,000, Exports of cattle h?1935 were $367,000 and in 1936 we Holstein Breeder J.J.MURPHY

the present time over democracy, were analyzed by Principal A.E.Morgan, of Mc- Gill University, who gave the convocation address at the closing exercises of the United Theological College, in Emmanuel Church before a large gathering of friends and former students of the college at Montreal, Thursday night.Rev.John Harrison Miller of Huntingdon United Church was given the degree of Doctor of Divinity, honoris causa.The presentation was made by Professor W.A.Gifford.In his address to convocation, Principal Morgan pointed out that those entering the ministry were entering upon greatly changed conditions.\u201cThere was a time,\u201d he said, \u201cwhen the influence of the priest and minis- tet was pre-eminent in the world.The priest and the minister influenced men and women, and society, more than any other individual.I believe that time has gone.It may return.Some will deplore the change.Some will applaud it.It is a fuct, however, which must give rise to grave consideration.\u201d \u201cLife,\u201d Principal Morgan declared, \u201cis a poor thing if it is made up (Continued on page 2) have sprung from a positive view of life.They clung to certain values; not clear perhaps, not as substantial as they wished but enough to give them a foothold on the great threshold of life.Only such men who believed in the positive reality of human values have made great contributions.You may disbelieve in everything and be very clever.but to be great your feet must be placed on beliefs in certain human values.\u201cYouth is asking for something to believe in.The great task before churches today is to persuade those who want faith, that there is a faith for them.If the Church fails in this duty, it will be taken over by other agencies; it is being taken over.\u201cYouth is dissatisfied.It is looking and finding something in which it can believe.Youth does not want an easy faith.It does not want a \u2018safety first\u2019 religion.Youth does not want ease but rather opportunity to sacrifice itself to something.higher.\u201d The very material success which has surrounded democracies is one of the greatest threats to democracy, he stated.Youth, he said, is not satis- fled with the doctrine of greatest ease for the greatest number.Unless there can be provided the \u201crocky road, democracies will go .There Lave exported $1,124,000 worth of cattle up to the end of March 1936.In 1935, $1.689,000 worth of fish was exported from Canada and so far this year $2,196,000 worth of fish have been exported.Planks and boards, $760,000 in 1935 and $1,370,000 worth, so far this year.\u201cNow I submit these figures to you people Lonight and ask whether our Government ts working to help the farmers or not.I have as my desk- mate Mr.Davidson of the Quebec Dairy Commission, and we have talked about butter, cheese and cream.We went to see Dr.Barton and took the question up with him.We have gone to see Mr.Gardiner.A delegation of six called on the Prime Minister and put it up to him that the East does not recelve enough attention; everything is for the West.Mr.King sald that he would see that some measure was adopted in the near future to help the people of Eastern Canada.\u201cThe biggest problem we have today is Lhe unemployment situation.We have many thousands not work- Ig and are keeping them in camps.We have appointed a Commission on Unemployment.A system we are thinking of adopting is the Farm Help Plan.Offering you farmers young men for $10.00 a month and paying the young men $10.00 a month, The new Commission should be a

remind our town readers that this is Clean-Up Week in Huntingdon, and officials are looking for good co-operation on the part of townspeople.For some time the weather has been averse to clean-up operations.rain falling almost every day.This meant that yards did not dry.and consequently many property holders will have to rush in order to be ready for the town carts this week.Weather now promises to run true to late Spring form, and gardeners can safely be assured that it is time for them to get their work under way.And while the town is on the matter of preaching it might not be a bad idea for it to do a little practising.During the past week the main street has not presented much of attraction.It was sorely in need of a good sweeping and washing.and we hope that by the time this issue of the paper is distributed that the condition will have been remedied.It would be a pleasing announcement to the townspeople if the Town Council would make a statement that the main street will be washed and swept at least once a week all during the summer.A plan in use many years ago, that of sprinkling the main street every day.should again be revived.It is true that the streets are not so dusty now, but a good flow of water over them, especially main street.every morning during the hot weather would make the street cleaner and cooler.Many people are of the impression that Hun- tingdon's main street is one of the hottest spots on earth.and they have reason for such statement.If by sweeping the street once a week, and sprinkling it every day.we can make it a more enjoyable place on which to linger.the merchants and other business places will reap returns which will far exceed in magnitude any expense which might be incurred in carrying out the work.Price Boosting at Wrong End N the cities there is much talk about \u201cliving wages\u201d and \u201cadequate income.\u201d Labor organizations are constantly being strengthened and higher wages demanded.Claims anywhere up to a dollar or more an hour have become so common that no one blinks an eyelash at them.But what about the farmer who furnishes the wherewithal to keep the rest of the people from starving to death.The average farmer having an investment of say $4500 may have a gross income of $600 out of which he must pay taxes and insurance, buy feed, and meet upkeep on buildings, machinery and equipment.These, together with what he must necessarily pay for household supplies, would bring the amount up to three or four hundred dollars, leaving say $250, which would just about meet the interest on the capital investment, leaving nothing to the farmer, who as a rule works harder than any other class.The figures, of course are roughly made, but not without due consideration of cold facts.This matter is causing deep concern to many who are not farmers.It would not seem reasonable to expect this condition to last forever.Lower prices for what the farmer has to buy and higher prices for what he has to sell are the two things most needed.Price boosting is being carried on at the wrong end.The Mind of Man AN is a strange animal.He becomes submarine M at will and dwells with the fish in the green depths of oceans.He takes on wings and soars with the birds of the air.He searches the firmament with a gigantic eye and becomes intimate with stars and planets.He probes the lives of tiny insects and amasses a wide knowledge of diminutive worlds.He fine-combs the earth and reconstructs primeval existence.He explores the recesses of the globe; studies primitive tribes; excavates the ground for buried empires; ravages tombs of pharaohs; dares disease, hunger, privation, savagery and death in his insatiable quest for knowledge.And yet, for all his travelling and erudition, he has left almost unexplored that rich and alien country of the mind.Despite psychiatrists, psychologists and psychoanalysts, the mind of man remains strange terrain.Yet its vast potentialities\u2014its resources of hidden motives, reflexes and urges\u2014its possibilities of genius or madness\u2014should long before this have lured more enterprising spirits to solve its mysteries.What strange crossing of channels, for instance, diverts a from the surgeon's scalpel to the murderer's e?What degeneration of cells turns obsession in- o madness?What quirk of structure turns strength into weakness, good into evil, love into hate?What elements conspire to give the world the beauty and bweep of Shakespeare's poetry and the slaughter and apine of Napoleon's genius?Throughout the cen- uries the mind of man has borne strange and diver- kified fruit.It has borne nobility and baseness; hero- sm and cowardice; humanity and rapacity; tolerance nd intolerance.Yet no one can tell from what uxtaposition of factors these things spring.KT) The mind may never know its Columbus, its Cor- pz or its Cartier.But at least it should call every of us to enquire a little more deeply about its orkings.What knowledge there is available through e study of pioneers we should take into our pos- passion.For our character, \u2018our thoughts and our estiny depend wholly on our mind.The mind builds the mind destroys.That is why the mind is s0 ve-inspiring in its potentialities\u2014so worthy of every and reverence we can show it\u2014so worthy of very knowledge we can obtain of it.Our Ormstown Show Prize List for the Ormstown Show has been dis- | tributed this week, and a perusal of the copy contained therein seems a guarantee for a bigger and better show this year.Unrelinquished efforts by the Show Directorate and the Manager-Secretary with the co-operation of the Quebec M.L.A., Hon.Honoré Mercier, have made it that the officials are able to increase their prizes by $1000 as the result of an increase in the Provincial Government grant.The full benefit of the grant has been passed on to the exhibitors.The interest so far shown in the forthcoming Show has been the keenest ever exemplified this length in advance.The Secretary has already received hundreds of requests for copies of the Prize List.and copies have been forwarded to all concerned.The Horse Show part of the Exhibition this year will likely rival any of the larger shows in the strength of quality and the quantity of animals exhibited.Tse aggregate prizes in the horse classes amount to $5,- 528.50, with an additional $882.50 in the cash specials.The total prizes in cattle classes amount to $4,- 476.Holsteins, Ayrshires, and Jerseys lead the cattle classes with $849 offered in each division.Further, the Holstein-Friesian Association of Canada supplements the Holstein prize list by offering 40 per cent additional to any of the prizes secured in these classes by exhibitors of Holsteins.There has been an increase in the Prize List this year for French-Canad- ian cattle, $751 being offered.Shorthorns follow with $312.Herefords and Polled Angus $200, and Large and Small Grades, $160 each section.Cash specials in cattle classes amount to approximately $100.The Sheep sections offer $798 prizes, Swine $369, and Poultry about the same as last year.In the Vegetable, Flower, Baking and other sections of the Ladies\u2019 Departments classes have been added, and prizes increased accordingly.The Junior Department of the Show this year promises to be a feature attraction.Apart from its regular grant, the Federal Department of Agriculture gives a special grant with the aim of encouraging Boys' and Girls\u2019 Club work in the district, improving the educational value of the show, developing better farmers and breeders, and stimulating the interest of the young people in the show, and through them to interest a great number of adults.$275 are offered in prizes in this department which is open to all boys and girls in the district, excepting the Live Stock classes and Showmanship contests which are open to members of Calf Clubs organized under the auspices of the Federal and Provincial Departments of Agriculture.The Show Directorate offers a silver cup for the champion showman in this division.In 1935 Ivan Knox, of Howick, was the winner of the cup.In all sections there are numerous special prizes offered by firms and individuals, and especially is this true for the classes in the Ladies\u2019 Work Department where bread is featured.The individual cash donations to the Prize List total $353.The Ormstown Show is ours.Let us advertise its merits in every way possible.We have a well-known product to boost.then we should get behind it with all the support that we can furnish, by exhibiting, by attending, and by encouraging others to attend and exhibit.On account of Federal regulations entries have to close at least three weeks previous to the opening of the show for pure bred stock on May 19 and June 1 for grade stock.Let Us Be Tolerant OR reasons which can probably be attributed to F \u2018go-getter\u2019 efficiency tactics peculiar to this machine age.we in business have become victims of our own intolerance to a point where we have paid for that folly with millions of dollars of company profits.Be tolerant of age.If we were to accept the policies of many large corporations, once a man has passed middle age.his usefulness to his company and to the world at large is at an end, and merciful anaesthesia is probably the best thing that couid happen.Enforced retirement of executives at fifty-five, sixty and sixty-five years of age is a practice increasingly prevalent.increasingly costly.A man\u2019s mental capacity.health and resistance to inevitable Kkatabolism, to say nothing of invaluable experience and the stable wisdom that matures with age, is a far better yardstick with which to measure man's utility than merely counting his years upon earth.; \u2018Take all the experience and judgment of men over fifty out of the world and there would not be enough left to run it.There is no reason why men of sixty-five should not do as much work with the mind as every one\u2014and better work.Youngsters have their place and are necessary.but the experience and judgment of men over fifty are what gives purpose and meaning to younger men\u2019s efforts.I expect to do more in the next five years than I have done in the past twenty.\u201d That was what Henry Ford said on the occasion of his birthday.He was seventy- two years old last summer.at his desk every day.ready for business as usual .and plenty of it.Be tolerant of youth.A man's most productive period in business life begins at about twenty.When it ends may depend upon the encouragement and opportunities for development you give him.Don't wait until he is thirty before you use his brains.If you do.your investment in him has already been heavily discounted.When a young man starts out in business, he is keen, full of ideas.He wants to set things humming.He may be wrong, but he has to be shown reasons why.He soon finds out that his company \u201ccouldn't consider such an idea\"\u2014\"It's against the policy of the organization\"\u2014\u201cWe're very conservative\" \u2014\"You'll know better when you get more experience.\u201d The result is that in short order, the company has on its hands another young fellow very effectively lodged in a rut.Finally, be tolerant of the representations of others.Too many executives have begun by building around themselves and their positions a stone wall of reserve, or \u201cbusiness dignity.\u201d This self-imposed aura of importance unconsciously tends to make one consider the opinions of others as relatively unimportant.In selling.for instance, many thousands of dollars have been lost because some key executive had \u201cno time to waste on.salesmen,\u201d while minor executives had either no authority to act or lacked the vision and experience to boil down values properly.Never be too big to accept a new idea, even from the office boy.You will find that it is an inexpensive way of developing your own thought equipment as well as increasing the respect and regard of others toward you because of your consideration.If the idea isn't sound, accept it just the same\u2014 with sincere thanks and perhaps a gracious explanation of some of the difficulties it might encounter.Do that and you will have acquired one of the attributes of true greatness.\u201cDo unto others what you would have others do unto you\" is a Scriptural slogan worthy of incorporation in your company policy.You may take it to your heart to a point where it becomes a magnificent obsession, because it's not only right, \u2014but extremely profitable.THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER A BIRD THAT ROARS LIKE A LION When the bittern, which is a small heron, goes courting, it lets all the world know it.The cry of this wading bird is described as sounding somewhat like the roar of a lion and under favorable circumstances can be heard at a distance as great as a mile.The courting season of the bittern is in the early spring, when the love-call of the male bird is heard as a loud, deep boom.The male selects & small open space in swampy ground, in a bed of reeds or on nearby flat ground.He approaches the object of his affections with lowered neck and partly spread wings.All his feathers are puffed out, and in this I position he circles round her, doing 'his best to show that he is a very | handsome and important bird.But it loften happens that another male :bittern approaches and this means a (fight.The long.sharp beaks of the love rivals appear to be formidable weapons as they circle round and \u2018round.Little damage is done, however, for as one bird strikes at the other, the defender opens his long wings and brings them forward in front of his breast in the form of a shield.i CHILDREN PRODUCE PLAYS i Theatregoers of Erivan, capital of Soviet Armenia.who received special invitations to the premiere of a new play produced by one Susan Aivan- dian, were greatly amazed to discover that Susan was a theatrical expert \u2018of 12, and that the oldest actor in the play boasted of 14 summers.The gifted youngsters, who organized their own company and developed a \u2018repertory of both classical drama and new works by contemporary Ar- \u2018menian playwrights, have been given funds and their own theatre.Susan, \u2018their leading producer, has been \"awarded a tiip to Moscow to study the theatres of the Soviet capital.| When she learned of the award her \u2018first words were: \u201cWill you please telegraph to Stanislavski and Nemi- irovich-Danchenko and ask them not \u2018to leave Moscow before I get there?I'd like to have their advice about ,some things.\u201d PRISONER IN WALL © Perhaps the most original attempt ito break out of jail has been made at \u2018M'Alester.Oklahoma.Convicts in the {Oklahoma prison were ordered to rebuild the encircling wall and, dur- jing the work, they had to make a jlarge hole in it.One of the convicts hid in the hole and persuaded his mates to brick it up.At roll call next morning.convict 101 was missing.A guard was immediately thrown round the prison and the grounds thoroughly searched, without result.On the following morning.one of the guards, patrolling the outside wall.heard a tapping noise.The wall was broken down and there was the missing convict.His comrades had left him a hammer to break his way out.and he had drilled a series of tiny holes in the mortar between the bricks for ventilation.ANCIENT \u201cLOVE COURT\" A tribunal of 800 years ago, which sat to adjudicate on lovers\u2019 quarrels.will be revived as part of the festival of Santo Estello.France.The court will hand down decisions on the rights and duties of sweethearts toward each other.It is now busy studying precedents in the cases which came up in Provence in the eighth century.A series of French proverbs has grown up as a result of these ancient courts.Here are a few of its old pronouncements: \u201cThou shalt not make love to one whom thou wouldst be ashamed to marry.\u201d \u201cTrue love is not born in a day.but is the fruit of much patient understanding.\u201d \u201cLove at first sight

Kenedy county, Tex.with a better record still.This Texas county.having a population of 701, has never had anyone on relief.Chronicled News Bits lat the Specially written for The Huntingdon Gleaner GERMANS ALTER BIBLE Nazi leaders in Germany are rewriting Martin Luther's version of the Bible to \u201ccorrect\u201d the impression which it has given all these years that Jesus Christ was a Jew.The new version is being harmonized with the preseit anti-Jewish sentiment.These translators declare there is an abundance of evidence in the Scriptures handed down from antiquity that Jesus was not a Jew.They declare pure Christianity is a radical enemy of Jewry, that the Jews never have accepted Jesus, that his entire life was a fight against them, and even his disciples, although Jews themselves, were despised, persecuted and many suffered martyrs\u2019 deaths at the hands of the Jews of their day.DATED BY CHAIN LETTER It's enough to make a girl chew up pencils and pencils\u2014this \u201csending-a- dame\u2019 chain letter idea at the University of California.\"I can't see where it's going to end,\u201d said Miss Mary Kirk, pretty freshman coed, as she

municipality.Some information of keen interest to wheat growers, and in a lesser degree to all Canadian taxpayers, as owners of the Wheat Board holdings.came out in the inquiry into the Marketing of Wheat, which held several interesting sessions last week.Selling Wheat Freely The new wheat board has been selling wheat in very substantial quantities, and it has been getting a fraction over the average market price in the Winnipeg pit for its sales.James R.Murray, Chairman, disclosed that on the very first day it took over (December 9) it sold 820.000 bushels.On December 10th 2,779.559 bushels.On December 11th 581,500 bushels.On December 12th 1.776,000 bushels.On December 13th \u2018that famous Friday) 22.025,445 bush- Wednesday, April 29th, 1936 Tea for every T'aste \"SALAD A TEA by the Wheat Board if they took a few chances in trying to sell Canadian wheat to Europe.Early on December 13th, the Argentine raised its minimum price sharply, Liverpool jumped 4':d per bushel, and heavy sales were made by grain brokers, which they were able to secure from the Wheat board at one quarter of a cent more than the previous day's close.The moment the pit opened, prices shot up tin- fluenced by Buenos Aires and Liverpool) the full three cents a bushel permitted by the regulations of the Exchange.Those brokers who had sold meantime were protected against the sudden jump.The wheat hoard was subsequently attacked for having saved the professional \u2018short\u2019 speculators from a bad squeeze at that point.The pros and cons of this point of view are being well ventilated ih committee.In any event, the board sold 22,- 025.445 bushels of wheat that day at an average price of 88.779 cents per bushel; and in view of the current prices these days I suppose if they had a chance to do it again they would sell a lot more if possible, If the arrangement had not been in effect they could have held the brokers up for a higher price.Or, if they chose, they could have withheld that day for higher prices, but more recent developments suggest that it was a good day - for the Board, probably the country and the farmer as well.At least that is the view of a considerable section of the House.els.Altogether, between December Sth and January 31st.a total of 75,929,805 bushels were sold, at an average price of 88.6 cents a bushel (basis No.1 Fort William.Buying price has been on basis of 87!» cents, it will be recalled).A good deal of the inquiry centres around what happened on December 13th.An arrangement had been made several days before with the grain brokers by which they could make sales overnight to Europe or elsewhere and \u2018cover\u2019 their purchases when the pit opened next day at a price not more than one quarter of a Three shots to kill three lions in less than three minutes is the record of Rowe Needham of Southern Rhodesia, a 25-year-old employee of the government irrigation department.Finding a cow killed and half eaten, he argued that the lions would return to finish their meal.All night he waited in a tree and in the morning slid to the ground.His foot struck a stick and a startled lion charged at him.Rowe waited until it was 25 yards away and placed a bullet between its eyes.As he walked toward the animal a full-grown lioness burst out of the bushes and sprang high in the air.A swift half- turn and he had put a bullet in the brain of the lioness, which fell only 18 inches from his feet.Turning, he saw a lion cub, which came at him close range and the cub was laid low.EX-SOLDIERS GROW MUSHROOMS More than 1,000 pounds of mushroom have been sent to market every day in the last 12 months by 37 ex- soldiers who grow the fungus underground in an abandoned stone quarry at Bradford-on-Avon, England.Every one of the farm's 48 acres is 90 feet below the ground.with meadows and grazing cattle overhead.On every side of a network of caves mushrooms grow in beds set in rows having a total length of five miles.Electric fans help to circulate the air.Although it is completely dark in the caves, a full moon causes the mushrooms to spring up much faster, the growers declare.The ex-soldiers' farms occupy all the caves in the district and the men are searching for more.CO-EDS CONFESS Questionnaires answered by 70 girl undergraduates of Barnard College, New York, in

Wednesday, April 29th, 1936 Milk Producers Urged Stick With Association For Their Own Benefit (Continued from page 1) us in Caucus, never was a Government faced with such serious problems as Canada faces to-day.The world condition and the war situation have interfered.We haven't been able to make any plans because of the situation that prevails there at present.\u201cI would like to say that as far as the agricultural part of Canada goes, we have the best Minister of Agriculture we have ever had.He is like ourselves.Has 16 milking cows and told me himself that he would not be milking cows or making butter if they had a market for their wheat.That is one thing that is hurting this part of the country\u2014the dairy butter coming from the West.We have 2.29, surplus of butter.That is not a very big lot, but if you try to protect one branch of the industry all the others demand help.The powdered milk people want the 6c sales tax removed; the Ontario Cheese Board wants a set price; the butter- makers demand a bonus, etc.Then the fruit growers claim that they ought to have two or three dollars for every tree they lost in the cold season.It will take a little time to get through it all.\u201cIn the meantime the Trade Treaty is getting results.Stewart Bros.say they have exported 5,000 horses to the United States.That is worth considering.That will lower the number of horses left in Canada.We are not raising as many as we could.The West is selling horses because they cannot sell anything else.I think we should do our part to take advantage of the best market in the world\u2014to the South.You have the Clydesdale Club, the Belgian Club and now should get busy and form a Percheron Club.\u201d Mr.P.D.McArthur spoke briefly in French in introducing Mr.Marc Hudon.He said that Mr.Henri Bois, Chairman of the Quebec Dairy Commission found it impossible to be present qwing to engagements in Quebec.Mr.Hudon had made the trip from Quebec that afternoon and would have to be back on duty the next morning.Mr.Hudon has a big job on his hands and there are many things that we would have been unable to do without the backing of the Dairy Commission.Responsibilities Of Producers In an intimate and informal talk, Mr.Hudon discussed milk marketing problems under the heading: \u201cWhat we expect from the Producers\u2014The Responsibilities Facing Them.\u201d \u201cThe Montreal Milk Market has two sides: The credit side and the debit side.Assets and Liabilities.There is no doubt in our minds that the farmers have improved their situation.They have had a greater income derived from milk and the general condition of the dairy industry is better.Farmers supplying fluid market milk have been able to improve their buildings, pay old debts.get modern machinery.There is no doubt that the Commission is trying to plug the holes, but it has done nothing of a permanent nature.We have only stopped the flood.To-day we are probably at the turning point where permanent measures must be brought into being.If you are to get your share of those measures and proper representation.you must take care of your own requirements and responsibilities.You have responsibilities.I am sorry to have to tell you these things.We have sometimes felt that the farmers were not backing the Commission.Some farmers have made agreements to pay five or ten cents a hundred back to milk buyer; some ship seven days and get paid only for six days a week.While this may have been of benefit to the individual farmer for a short time, it would seem that producers have not 1talized the importance of these actions.It is simply tearing down the work your Association has been doing on your behalf.Your Association by hard work and expense has gone to the trouble to make agreements on your behalf and in your interest and it is pitiful to see a number of farm- ers\u2014it is a small number\u2014though there is a tendency for such actions to become general, destroy the efforts of your Association and the Commission.You Must Back Your Association \u201cThere are some interests which would be delighted to see the Dairy cmmission out of existence for reasons that they have not received all the benefits they looked for.We are convinced that by giving into these cemands they will use these arguments against you when they request the scrapping of the Dairy Commission.They are not satisfied; they will say the farmers are not satisfied either.Producers are willing to sell their milk cheaper; they come in and offer us milk lower than the price set.These are arguments we get every day of the week.And if you don\u2019t back your Association up witr all your support it will lose its power.Just at bedtime eat a bowlful of Kellogg\u2019s Rice

Edward Island who had devoted his life to co-operative organizations and had been 15 years the Secretary of Montreal Milk Produce.\u2019 Association.Mr.Moore said: \u201cThe first cows were brought to

preparation, and the least expensive bacon can be greatly improved by following this instruction.First, have the frying pan moderately hot so that the first slices of bacon in the pan will not stick.Give each slice room to fry without touching next piece.It takes time and patience to produce a tempting, dry.crisp pile of bacon.Over a slow fire so that the bacon simmers in the fat.tum the slices over and over, straightening out the curled ends with a fork.The pat- fence to cook the bacon slowly and turn it constantly is the big secret of that plate of brown, crisp, dry bacon.In preparing a whole pound, pour off the grease twice so that the slices do not curl up in the deep fat.Spread a roomy piece of common wrapping paper near, and ns each piece has browned thoroughly on both sides, lay it out on the paper which absorbs the grease.Turn each slice once on a dry spot of the paper.When dry.lay in neat rows upon a warmed plate or small platter with a The policy of the National Dairy Council is at present to promote the manufacture and export of cheese and through a levy scheme to raise the price of milk to the man who is making cheese.Butter is not included in the programme as it already receives à protection of approximately 8 cents a pound.\u201cIt is not material that you should agree with me,\u201d Mr.McMillan said, \u201cbut it is necessary that you should think of these problems as we must work them out to a solution.\u201d Mr.W.L.Carr, who was the organizer and first Secretary of the Association, nlso made a brief speech, owing to the lateness of the hour.He said: \u201cI feel justified in having a fatherly pride in the success of the Montreal Milk Producers\u2019 Association, so ably demonstrated by the other speakers, as I consider it one of \u201cmy babies.\u201d It is essentially a marketing organization and will con- Page Three tinue to do its utmost to cope with this very pressing problem of the day.Having solved our production problems we must extend our control still further in the marketing of our products.\u201d Mr.Donald Black said a few words in French and the evening was brought to a close by singing the National Anthem.Rev.A.B.B.Moore brought greetings and congratulations and admonished those present te heed the good advice given by the agricultural leaders.In answer to a question by the Gleaner, Mr.Black stated that the proposed Farm Help Plan would likely apply only to farmers who hired those at present unemployed.He had no information regarding the Marketing Act or the possibility of continuing the

carbon bisulphide is recommended.The fumigation process is carried on at a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit.Place a saucer containing a quantity of carbon bisul- phide on top of the clothing, close the lid and let it remain for at least 48 hours.Carbon bisulphide is highly inflammable and therefore no light should be brought near the trunk while the fumigation is in progress.Other Methods

production of milk for Montreal.I have a better appreciation of their self-sacrificing efforts than anyone else could possibly have and can only say that if their labors on behalf of their fellowmen are not sufficiently appreciated in this world I hope they will receive a golden crown at least in the world to come.\u201cOur present Association is now 17 year old and in the most flourishing condition in its history.Considering the hardships and business uncertainties of the past seven years and the high death rate in private firms, co-operatives and other associations.our members can be congratulated that the Montreal Milk Producers Association has not only weathered the storm but has more than doubled its membership and has very greatly increased its usefulness to the members.\u201cDuring the depression years chaos would have reigned on the Montreal market and farms producing milk would have received much lower prices than they did except for the strenuous fight waged by the Directors.There would have been no Dairy Commission to regulate and Some producers accept this point of view and bow humbly in submission when they hear their Master's voice, but I am pleased to say their number is getting less from year to year.\u201cThe Milk Distributors have their own organization, which is of course quite proper and it is on the job all the time to protect the interests of itr own members.That organization i: also generous enough at times to speak for the producer and it is touching to see the solicitude they display for the producer when their own ends can be best served by doing so.We, however, believe that the Producer's own organization is better fitted to speak for the Producer, but we have to proclaim this obvious fact very, very often.Political Pressure The political angle of farm organi- Zations was touched upon by Mr.W.W.Moore.\u2018When it comes to turning on political pressure,\u201d he said, \u201cthe Distributors\u2019 organization is away ahead of the Producers\u2019 organization and it is in this direction that we reed to mend our fences.As individuals, dealers may have different sides in the game of politics, but when it comes to seeking favors for their own business they present a united front and apply the pressure where it will do the most good.There is a lesson here for the members of the Montreal Milk Producers\u2019 Association, some of whom can be depended upon to further the cause of the Dealers even when it is clearly against the welfare of the producers as a whole.In all matters of importance and especially when it comes to legislation or regulatory matters, our members should stand shoulder to shoulder as a unit and if the Association can depend upon this its demands can hardly be ignored.\u201cThe M.M.P.A.stands squarely behind the policy that the Producer should have control of his own basi- ness but with fairness to the other various elements that enter into the chain that extends from the dairy farm to the consumer's kitchen, and your officers and directors ask for united support for this policy.\u201cInsofar as Legislative and Governmental supervision is concerned the Dealers\u2019 organization is on the ground working steadily to further its own aims and unless Producers can bring pressure on their side we can hardly blame members of parliament and Ministers if they accede to the Distributors\u2019 demands, because they believe that the farmer is indifferent and can be depended upon to vote the party ticket when election day rolls around.\u201cWe have a Dairy Commission with good legislation and regulations behind them and with regard to the members of the Commission, I think I am voicing the feeling of our Directors when I say that we would feel perfectly safe with the Commission as we have it today if it was in an ab- cclutely independent position and entirely immune from political pressure.But we must realize that in the last analysis the Commission must report to the Minister and that the latter is exposed to tremendous pressure from fellow Ministers and Deputies who may be identified with Distributors\u2019 interests, or else not sufficiently informed of the true significance of the demands being made upon them.\u201cProducers must remember further that life is a continuous battle.We cannot rest on our oars and say we have reached our objective and can slumber in peace.On the contrary, we must be on the alert and fight the devil with fire when necessary to do so.We should constantly advise the members who represent ridings where dairy production is the paramount industry.of our needs and difficulties and tell them plainly what will happen if they neglect or do not support our just demands.\u201d Special Bargain EXCURSIONS TO
