QUE., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 3rd, 1943 EIGHT PAGES Agricultural Difficulties Laid to Prices Board P.D.McArthur, President Dairy Farmers, Expresses Opinion on Calgary Meet D.McArthur of Howick, Que, president of the Dairy Farmers of Canada, expressed the opinion at Calgary, Alberta, Wednesday, Jan.27, that conflict of interest as between the Food Administration and the Price Control Administration was responsible for difficulties under which agriculture was laboring.Mr.McArthur said that the Prices Board had been fairly conversant with agriculture problems while Hector MacKinnon was chairman but \u201cunfortunately\u201d Mr.MacKinnon had not remained in that position.He said the relationship of the dairy industry with the food administration in the past year had been satisfactory for the most part.The Food Administration, however, was in a difficult position when approaching Donald Gordon, because he had taken the attitude that the ordy time he was interested in bonussing a commodity was when a shortage appeared imminent, the president said.\u2018The policy of giving financial support to a commodity, only when a Bonus Method at scarcity actually developed, made the system of bonusing \u2018\u2018absolutely\u201d ridiculous from the standpoint of the producers,\u201d Mr, McArthur sald.If the bonus on butter fat had been applied in the spring of the year, and not after the peak production period, the Canadian farmer could have fully measured up to the goal set for him in dairy production, he believed.Directors of the dairy farmers of Canada, elected at the annual meeting here yesterday included: Quebec: P.D.McArthur, Howick; H.C.Bois, Montreal; David Black, Lachute; J.P.Beauchemin, Ver- cheres.New Brunswick: H.C.Greenlaw, Millville, The dairy breed

Surprises, Can't Take Them, War Shows\u2014Small, But Active Soldier, Plays Tarzan in Stalingrad\u2014Crawls Over Roofs And in Sewers to Wreck Havoc Among Besiegers By GREGORY CLARK The Germans have won all their battles so far in this war by novelty and surprise.The people they have crushed, including such British forces as they have bested, were people who for one reason or another were unequipped with novelties and had no capacity to surprise the Germans.The people of France had been patiently rotted by novel and skilful political dissension.The British troops with whom I shared the retreat in Flanders in 1940 were to all intents and purposes, as far as equipment and training were concerned, the same troops with whom I had been demobilized in 1919.But the reason the Russians have held out against battle-seasoned German armies ever freshly supplied with novelties, both material and intellectual, is that the Russians themselves, at the very outset, adopted the principle of novelty and surprise.This principle of never doing what the enemy might expect you to do is fatal to the German character.If you creep into a room to say boo at somebody, and somebody says boo at you, it throws you off balance.Have Surprised Germans Technically and mechanically, the Russians have astonished and surprised not only their enemies but their allies in the high development of engines for winter fighting in their planes, transport and tanks, In the military art, the Russians have made contributions to the world history of war in the breaking down of big armies into small armies, each complete unto itself in both fighting power and supply.But in addition to organized novelty and surprise, the Russians have for months been running a compe- tion amongst the men, the boys, the girls and the women, every last one of whom lawfully regards himseif or herself as a fighter for Russia, to see who can think up the most outrageous surprise for the Germans.And when you get every regiment, every battery, every air squadron, every factory and every village and farmer competing in such a contest, the Germans are very likely to be surprised.Pavel Nikitin, one of the war correspondents of the Red Star, Rus- sidn\u2019army newspaper, tells this one: \u201cNot all Russians are big men.À soldier named Vlaschenko, who is still alive and kicking, is all arms and shoulders and hardly any legs.He has developed the most extraordinary technique of long poles with boat hooks at both ends by which he travels over the roofs of Stalingrad, crossing streets and lanes by swinging across on his pole, CANDIDATE IN MONDAY'\u2019S ELECTION TW Mr.Oliver Bonneville, who was a candidate in Monday's election for Alderman for the Town Council of Huntingdon, was defeated by Achille C.H.Picard by a vote of 220 against 96, which gave Mr.Picard a major- People and also light ropes with hooks at the end which he flings across streets from roof top to roof top, trapezing himself almost anywhere he likes.With carbine, homb and 10- pound packets of TNT, he has wrought havoc in astonished German headquarters and outposts; for what sentry can see a white rabbit in the snow at night?And who can see a white cloud drift amid the blizzard, high overhead?Crawls Through Sewers \u201cWith a Russian lumberjack\u2019s packsack containing 60 pounds of INT, Vlaschenko recently crawled through a sewer system, many hundreds of yards of which was believed to be in ruins, and desfroyed a bridge immensely valuable to the Germans in Stalingrad.He was gone two days and we thought he was killed.Then the bridge blew up.So we had a feast ready two more days for Vlaschenko's retum.His own explosion had given him a hemorrhage of the nose and ears and had strained his eyes in some painful fashion.But he was only four days in hospital, and the last I saw of him he was rigged up in his white nightshirt, with a new 20-foot duralumin pole the Engineers had made for him in his honor, and his coils of delicate rope, off for another night's novelty and surprise for the Germans in Stalingrad.\u201d It is not the government, the war council or the army and air command of Russia that is°fighting on our side right now.It is all the people of Russia.No aid is too much or too good for them, Send your contribution and use your ingenuity to think up ways and means of inspiring others to send theirs to

Div.A., held its annual meeting in the County Building on Saturday afternoon.The financial statement presented by Mr, John Smaill, sec- retary-treasurer showed that the society had improved its financial position slightly and that the prospects were that further reductions would be possible when a speclal grant promised, is received.Close to $2,500 was paid out in the form of prize money, crop competitions and stallion bonusing during the year.Owing to the fact that the sheep pens were lost by fire, it was decided pens should be arranged for the 1943 fair.It is planned that the sheep be exhibited and judged on the second day of the fair.The fence facing the road is in much need of repair so it was decided that if possible, to have the board fence torn down and a wire fence erected in its stead, and at the same time provide for a second entrance for the special convenience of trucks and stock exhibitors.The Agricultural Society is again ready to arrange for the bonusing of stallions.The officers for 1943 will remain as in 1842 with one exception viz: A.L.Sellar, who asked to be replaced.Mr.W.K.Pope was named in his stead, At the meeting of the board of directors Mr.Wm.Graham was named President, J.J.Murphy, Vice-President., W.L.Carr, auditor War Savings Stamps Now on Sale at Neighbourhood Food Stores Every housewife has a patriotic desire to make a regular contribution to the war effort and War Savings Stamps have provided a way for anyone to do this in a practical, businesslike way.Now the purchase of these Stamps is to be made more convenient than ever, for this month thousands of grocers and butchers will begin to carry stocks of War Savings Stamps to enable housewives to keep up their regular purchases of stamps with a minimum of inconvenience.Behind this innovation is a story of modern organisation whereby the Food distributing firms of the Dominion have undertaken a whirlwind drive to visit over 40,000 stores to enlist their customers\u2019 co-opera- tion and supply them with all the necessary advertising materials, stocks of stamps, etc.It is a gigantic task and a purely patriotic one for no one gets a cent of commission.Great quantities of War Savings Stamps have been sold every month since the idea was first launched, but this February drive of the Food Industry is expected to add a million dollars to the public investment in Savings Stamps that month.It has been the experience that once a citizen realises that $4.worth of these 25c.Stamps can be exchanged for a Certificate worth $5 at maturity, they are eager to invest.More so when they know that this return is guaranteed by the Dominion of Canada and that if an emergency arises and funds must be had these Certificates can be cashed for at least full face value any time with added interest as the months go by.Ration Boards Handle Books The 500 local ration boards established during the last few weeks across Canada are getting their first big job.They are to handle the distribution of the new ration books which become effective March 6.No books will be mailed.All must be called for to save.many thousands of dollars.So the boards are being asked to set up distributing centres in each locality to enable householders to pick up the books easily.There are about 12,000,000 books to be distributed and that means a big job.The boards also exist to deal with local rationing problems.and John Smalll, secretary treasurer.ity of 14.ALD, ELZEAR LALANDE A.C.H.Picard Elected Alderman Defeats Opponent By Majority of 124 Votes There was a tense air of excitement as citizens of Huntingdon went to the polls on Monday to oast their votes in the contest for Alderman for the Town Council between Oliver Bonneville and Achille C.H.Picard.The weather was far from being ideal, a high wind was blowing the wet snow into the faces of all who ventured out.But despite this 319 persons made the trip to the polling booth at the County Bullding and recorded their votes in support of their particular candidate.The polling was conducted in a quiet and orderly manner throughout the period alotted during the day, with the poll opening at 7 a.m.and closing at 5 pm.It was anyone's guess as to who the elected candidate would be, but odds before the election favored Picard.Both candidates were on hand at the polling booth and greeted the voters with cheery smiles, At the noon hour, Mr.Picard was inviting persons to partake of sandwiches individually wrapped in paper napkins, and seemed to be enjoying them himself.The announcement that Mr.Picard had won the election by a majority of 124 votes was made by Mr.E.C.Martin at approximately 5.30 p.m.There were 593 names recorded on the voters list, which included the names of some companies who are not allowed a vote in an aldermanic election, and also those of persons living out of town.319 persons recorded their votes and the breakdown is as follows: 220 for Picard; 96 for Bonneville and 3 rejected ballots.BEER FLIES HIGH CAIRO\u2014A Heinkel III is being used in the Middle East as a \u201cbrewer's dray\u201d to help refresh thirsty fighting men.It was captured intact, and is used to fly thouands of pints of beer to troops in the desert.gr I WISH to express my appreciation for the honour of being elected Mayor of the Town of Huntingdon.It is also my pleasure to state that I have every confidence that the council elected will work together to administer the affairs of the Town of Hunt- ingdon in the interests of the community as a whole.W.E.S.McNAIR Valleyfield Man Linked With Tire Theft Pleads Not Guilty Provincial police have made another arrest in a series of alleged automobile tire thefts.According to Captain J.A.Merineau, Constable Florian Langevin detained Herve Meloche of Grande lle, near Valley- fleld on a charge of stealing three complete wheels, tires and inner tubes from Miron's garage at Grande e.Meloche appeared in Valleyfield court, pleaded not guilty, and was remanded for enquete.On Tuesday three men were arraigned at Sweetsburg, Que., before Judge J.H.Lemay on charges of stealing tires from motor cars.They were Maurice Potvin, Granby, Raymond Potvin, Montreal and Arnold Daneau also of Montreal, and were remanded for further hearing.National Housing Act May Help Relieve Housing Shortage by Providing Help to Small Home Builders New arrangements by which loans may be made on houses either for owner occupation or on those being built by a builder for sale have been made in connection with National Housing Act.The new agreement also makes possible greater loans on cheaper houses than previously\u2014 those valued at less than $4,000\u2014so that up to 90 percent can be borrowed on a house valued at $3200, with a descending scale to 80 percent for those valued at $4,000.It is hoped that this new agreement which is an amendment to the National Housing Act, will result in the construction of a considerable number of small hquses, which will tend to relieve the present difficult housing problem.Loans must be for at least 70 percent of the value.There is no change in the requirements in connection with loans to owner occupants.With many people searching vainly for suitable homes, the building of small houses should fill an important need of the present, which is the whole purpose of the new agreement.Grand Total Of Seal Drive $700 Huntingdon County Residents Respond Admirably to Noble Cause The secretary of the Ohristmas Seal Committee for the Chateau- guay Huntingdon Tuberculosis League, Mrs, Jas, E, Barrett, reported today that the grand total in this drive has reached the $700.\u201d mark, which certainly is a credit to the County of Huntingdon.Judging trom the fact that all contributions, except two for five dollars, were one, two and three dollar donations, it ts believed that Huntingdon County residents responded admirably to this noble cause.The final list of contributors is as follows: $3.donation, Miss Murdoch and pupils; $2.donation, Jos.Fournier; $1.donations: Mrs.D.Mun- roe, M.Caldwell, A.Latulipe.H.Bingley, Mrs.T.McConville, R.J.Barrette, A.Caldwell, Mrs, P.Mc- Callum, D.K.Gordon, Miss A, Howse, Miss P.Sample, C.Cassidy, V.Gibeault, G.Black, Mrs.E.Ewart, Mrs, E.R.Thompson, Miss D'Aoust, Jas.Fortune, D.Godin, Mrs.Wm.Flemming, Mrs.W.D.Hamill, E.E.Bisson, Mrs.R.N.Walsh, All money obtained from the County of Huntingdon will be used in that district for the welfare of the community, and will be distributed equally throughout the County, | with the exception of 20%, which 1s deducted as a Government tax, to be used for hospital equipment where needed.Rents Not to Rise \u201cThere will be no increase in rates of rentals in the province of Quebec,\u201d says Owen Lobley, rentals administrator for Quebec and the Maritimes.There has been no change in the regulations of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board and it continues to be an offence for any landlord to increase a rental without permission of the local committee.The New Council Will Carry on in the Best Interests of the Community as a Whole ALD.ALEX.FAWCETT ALD.WALLACE WARDEN T.N.T.Troupe Presents Fine Program at Barracks Troupe Composed Mainly of Girls Gives Splendid Variety Show For Soldier Personnel T.N.T.troupe of entertainers from the YM.CA.Montreal, under the direction of Mrs.Riorden, who of- ficlated as Mistress of Ceremonies, presented a variety entertainment in the Drill Hall, Chateauguay Barracks, on Friday evening.The programme was presented by an entire troupe of girls, other than one man, who it was announced had already enlisted and would be leaving the show during the coming week.Harry, the popular man of the troupe, was a cornet soloist.Usually cornet solos are almost plercing but not so with Harry.for his three numbers were proficlently played and mellow.Mrs.Rlorden has apparently adopted a system of stage names for all members of the troupe for ali were announced by their given names.The opening number was \u201cKick Routine\u201d a six girl dance team that won applause as they presented thelr various dances in different costumes throughout the programme, The baby of the troupe was Norma.Her voice delighted the aud- lence and as Mrs.Riorden announced she was but 16 years of age, she was checked up by Norma who an- hounced that she was celebrating ber 17th birthday that day.With such an announcement, the soldiers immediately responded by singing \u201cHappy Birthday to you.\" This was indeed a fine way of warming up the evening's entertainment, Irene\u2019s toe dancing was tip top and likewise can be sald of the tap dancing she offered toward the close of the programme.Hilda, perhaps the senior member of the show was outstanding as an etitertainer.Her first act wns a number of accordion numbers where- In she Invited the audience to juin in the singing.Later on in the programme Hilda appeared a a magician and her clever tricks left many mystified, especially as to where the pigeon came from and how F irst Meeting New Council Held Monday New Members Take Oath of Office Before E.C.Martin The first meeting of the new Hunt- ingdon Town Council was held on Monday evening, The following members duly took the oath of office, and were sworn In by Mr.E.C.Martin, B.C.L., secretary-treasurer for the town: Mr.W.E.8.McNair, Mayor; Messrs.Jus.E.Barrett, A.C.H, Picard, W.Warden, J.Oslos (Elzear) Lalande, L.Cappiello and Alex Fawcett, Aldermen.Mayor McNalr, In opening the meeting, welcomed the Aldermen and asked for their general cooperation in conducting the Town's business, and made complimentary remarks regarding the old council, to which Alderman Jas.E.Barrett made a suitable reply.It was decided to re-appoint Mr.J.Paul Chatel, Valleyfield, to audit the Town books for the present year.Alderman Barrett was appointed pro-Mayor for the next three months, Mr.Walter Patterson came before the board and asked that the new Council would notify the public if any meetings are to be held in the afternoon rather than at the regular hour.Mayor McNair assured him that the public would be notified if any such changes were made.Alderman Barrett stated that the chairman of the salvage committee, Mr.R.E.McWhinnie, had reported that there was enough rubber and other salvage in the Town to warrant the use of the Town truck to pick it up.Some discussion then arose regarding whether the Town should be reimbursed for the use of the truck.Alderman Barrett stated that as it was a war measure, the collections should be made free of charge.He went on to point out that if charges were made for the truck and a man, that there would he nothing left to donate to the var- | fous war departments.After due consideration, it was decided that no charges would he made for salvage pick-ups in the Town, but that the town should be reimbursed the | costs of gasoline and oil for pick-ups in outlying centres, such as Orms- town, Dundee, Franklin, Athelstan and St.Anicet.Mayor McNair stated that various committees would have to be drawn up at the next meeting.The various committees would be fur the following positions: Road, water, finance, poor relief, parks, fire and light.He stated that at the next meeting the committees would be named.As the majority of the Aldermen were sitting for the first time, he proposed that the secretary read the Town By-Laws, Alderman Picard stated that he wished to know if the Huntingdon Fire Department was ready to combat fires at the present time.Mr.D.A.Moody assured Alderman Picard that all except the booster pump was in readiness, He stated that the parts for minor repairs which were necessary since the fire at the Huntingdon Convent, had not yet arrived, but were expected shortly.Alderman Picard, at the close of the meeting, moved a vote .of thanks to the retiring Council for their ceaseless effort to better the Town.The meeting was adjourned to Monday, February 8th.WHEN IS IT A BUNNY?LONDON\u2014Pigure it out yourself, but the British Pood Ministry says: \u201cA wild rabbit becomes tame when its weight exceeds 3% pounds.A tame rabbit is wild when it weighs less than that amount.\u201d the spittoon never seemed to be empty of water at any great length of time.Mrs.Riorden announced that Hilda had a brother who was a magician, an enlisted son a magician, who 1s now in Africa.Hilda's family is very much taken up with war work as her husband is in the tank manufacturing business, one son in the army and one son in the air foroe and she does her part in providing wholesome entertainment for the troops.Joyce.a beautiful soprano soloist made her.debut in Huntingdon, a year ago, and so successfully did she make her first appearance on the army show circuit she has been enrolled as a regular hit on the TNT.presentations.Her high soprano numbers brought forth a grand applause.Madeline, danced the light fantastic in à very gracious manner.Mary, a popular soloist has gained the reputation of never performing less than twice a week before army audience.The three soloists, Mary, Joyce and Irene also sang as a trio, Barbara, presented a number of Spanish Dances, whilst Elsie with her Hill Billy songs and ever pleasing smiles carried the audience into singing and applauding her repeated return to the foot lights.The milk bottle drinking competition was again presented and this time six boys were called to the stage.The successful winner of the competition received as a prize a real healthy smacker on the cheeks by the six beautiful girls who held the milk bottles.It was no tine to blush but just take the kisses and enjoy it.The entertalnment was well re- celved and fully appreciated.A vote of thanks was duly accorded with the expressed hope that at some later date the troupe would again be able to favour Chateauguay Barracks with another fine programme of entertainment, Son of

years of service on the village and town council, retired from the council after the meeting held January 28th.He was elected a Councillor on January 10th, 1917, on the village council and later when Hyntingdon was incorporated as a town in 1921, he served as Alderman until 1931.In 1932 he was elected Mayor and served until this time, thus he served fourteen years as councillor and alderman and ten years as Mayor, & period of twenty-four years altogether.He has done much to bring about the growth of Huntingdon and Mr.James E.Barrett, who has worked with Mr.Faubert on the Council, paid him fine tribute at the last meeting over which he presided.Mr.Faubert has definitely decided to leave this part of his public life to enjoy a well earned rest from the worries of public office.He was al ways well respected as Mayor Huntingdon and did his duty to best of his ability and in the Interests of those he served.En Page Two The Huntingdon Gleaner Published by The Huntingdon Gleaner Inc.ADAM

Ottawa and St.Lawrence Valley Press Association Huntingdon, Wed., Feb.3rd, 1943 A New Town Council HIS week, an almost new Council was sworn in to look after the public works and affairs of the ratepayers of Huntingdon.The only remaining member of the old council is Mr.James E.Barrett, the new members are Mr.W.E.S.McNair, Mayor; Messrs.Leo Cappiello, Alex Fawcett, Elzear Lalande, Wallace Warden and A.C.H.Picard as aldermen.The retiring members were Mr.D.Faubert, who was Mayor; Messrs.R.E.McWhinnle, J.O.Michaud, G.Dixon, A.A.Lunan and J.H.Demers, aldermen.Fublic office at the best of times is a thankless job and no man has yet been born who could please and satisfy everyone.Thus it was that most of the retiring aldermen felt that they have served the public for as long as they could and desired to be relleved of their public duties.It is quite possible that had they decided to act again, they may have been re-elected.During their term of office they looked after the interests of the town taxpayers to the best of their ability and conducted the council meetings in an orderly and businesslike manner.Despite this it is only natural that their decisions did not meet with entire satisfaction.but regardless of this.the Town has not suffered any really serious setbacks cr financial difficulties in the past few years.The retiring aldermen need have no serious regrets as to the conduct of the Town's affairs.There was only one contest for members in the new council, this being between Messrs.Oliver Bonneville and A.C.H.Picard, with Mr.A.C.H.Picard being elected.The other members were all elected by acclamation.Mr.W.E.S.McNair will be the new Mayor and he has served the taxpayers of this town before as an alderman.Mr.James E.Barrett has served in this capacity on the last Council.The other members are entirely new and will be making their initial bow to the public as aldermen.The first meeting of the new council was held on Monday night and a report of this appears elsewhere in this issue.There is no doubt that the new council will do its best to study the interests of the taxpayers and the future of Huntingdon as a whole.Mr.D.Faubert.the retiring Mayor.has served the people of Huntingdon.almost continuously for the past {twenty-four years.He is quiet in manner and always conducted the affairs at council meetings in a very businesslike way, seeing that all matters had complete and thorough discussion.He was first elected when Huntingdon was a village, on January 10th, 1917, as a councillor.Later, when the village was incorporated as a town in 1921, he served as alderman until 1931.He was non-active for a short time, after which he was elected as Mayor, and has served for the past ten years in this capacity.This is truly a record of public service and Mr.Faubert definitely decided that he had performed his full share of service to the public of this town, Parliament Convenes N Thursday, Members of Parliament reconvened at Ottawa for the annual session and the Speech from the Throne carried warning that it will be a momentous one.The Leader of the Official Opposition, Mr.Hanson, resigned this position in favor of Mr.Graydon, member for Peel County, and Mackenzie King welcomed the new Leader, while expressing regret that Mr.Hanson could not dontinue in that capacity.The Throne Speech gave an outline of what the present session of Parliament proposes on its agenda and a number of important matters will be discussed and possibly legislation will be passed to implement those which are of most importance.Discussions are liable to be very heated on many questions, but first and foremost will be the will of Canada to beat the Axis Powers._ It is pleasing to note that Canada is not going to lag behind on the matter of reconstruction after the war.It is proposed to set up machinery for investigation into the matter of social legislation which will tend to end the fear of want.It was pointed out in the speech, that Canada already has a number of acts which provide certain social benefits, but 1% has no nation-wide plan of social security.Thus it is proposed to go into the matter with a view to seeing what can be done to bring such a plan about.It it quite possible that a plan of National Health Insurance will be implemented at this session.The immediate task of the United Nations is the defeat of the Axis Powers.To this end, Canada will continue to make ships, planes, tanks and all, munitions of war in ever increasing quantities consistent with her ability to so do.Following this, every effort must be made to see that after the close of hostilities, useful and remunerative employment is found for the men and women of the armed forces and from the war industries.Freedom from fear must not only be ensured but must be achieved by the defeat of all our enemies, Another important matter which has been the subject of much comment lately, is the redistribution of representation in the House of Commons.It 1s on the agenda for discussion and a bill §s to be introduced on the matter.Proportional representation and the transferable ballot have been under discussion for quite some time, it is likely that some lively debates will take place over this highly controversial subject, The position of the United Nations has vastly changed since the last meeting of Par- llament and the meeting at Casablanca has tended to strengthen the feeling that momentous issues are in the offing.Diplomatic relations with other countries who are our allies have been considerably strengthened in the past months and Canada's position among the United Nations is a high one.There is no doubt that new legislation will be enacted regarding the payment of income tax and it is likely it will become a pay-as- you-go proposition and collectable at the source.It seems that this method will become the standard one on this continent, at least.In the case of Canada, it will mean some adjustment to bring the 1942 payment of income tax into and part of the current year's payment.No hint has been given as to what the budget will entail, but it is certain that it will not be decreased and it may mean heavier self-denial on the part of all citizens, Casablanca IBLY one of the most historical events \u201cof the present war to date, is the news of the meeting at Casablanca between Prime Minister Churchill and President Roosevelt.The President is the first of American Presidents of late years to meet in a war zone on foreign soil and to fly by plane to that foreign soil.This in itself would make history, but the meeting was of historical character as the decisions arrived at will no doubt fashion the future design of the war as a whole.It was rather unfortunate that pressure of war duties prevented Stalin from attending this meeting, even though arrangements were made to hold the meeting at a more suitable place if both Stalin and Chiang Kai-shek could attend.Allled plans for 1943 calling for strategic blows against Hitler's forces in Europe were discussed and no doubt started toward execution.Steps were made to bring about a closer collaboration between the dissenting French forces in Africa and to end the uncertainity in that field.Possibly the most important announcement was that only unconditional surrender of the Nazis, Italians and Japanese would be considered as basis for peace terms.This is an important decision if the peace of the world is to be established and the clause freedom from fear to become a fact.It was a mistake of the last war that Germany was allowed to have a peace whereby she was able to regain sufficient initiative to prepare for another war.This must definitely never occur again and only by putting the aggressive nations under complete control can a peace be obtained which will be a lasting one.It is quite evident that the whole story of the ten-day meeting at Casablanca has not yet been told.No doubt other plans were discussed that will have a military significance which will be seen as time passes, but which cannot be told at this time.It is also quite evident that the whole affair has made the Axis partners quite jittery.The Nazis celebrating their tenth year of power in Germany, were obliged to let the event pass without word from their chief, Hitler.While excuses were made for his non-appearance, it will no doubt cause the people of Germany to begin wondering, even if they never did before.The people of the United Nations have cause to rejoice over the Casablanca meeting, but there will be plenty to do and plenty to think about before the peace can be claimed.The heaviest time of the war is to come, when we must attack in force at the Nazi strongholds and force them to the surrender we want.Time will tell what is to happen, but the path to victory is more sure.A Book of Ment T was our privilege this week to receive a book published by The House of Seagram and written by Prof.Stephen Leacock, entitled \u201cCanada - - The Foundation of its Future.\u201d From a printer's standpoint, the book is a work of typographical art and notwithstanding its contents, would bring joy to any person belonging to the trade.It was very carefully and beautifully wrapped for mailing purposes.Encased in an outer covering of heavy millboard, a still further covering of thin card was printed in composite scenes depicting a panorama of Canada\u2019s industries and activities.A third covering was in the form of an envelope case with thumbhole, made of cardboard and covered with a mottled paper.Inside this was the book nicely bound in a heavy blue cover, printed in gold and black, The pages of the book are nicely designed, printed in two colors of black and red, in clear legible type.There are ten full chapters, thirty illustrations and nine maps.Two narrow ribbons provide the book with attached bookmarks.Marginal notes are made to give easy reference to the facts contained in different chapters.The book is a history of Canada from its early days to the present and giving some insights to its future, with the background as the foundation.The material in the book is written by Prof.Stephen Leacock, a well- known writer of such subjects.The first chapter is entitled \u201cThe Empty Continent\u201d which gives an account of Canada and the American continent in the days of its earliest discovery.The final chapter is entitled \u201cCanada as a Future World Power,\u201d a very timely article which shows the place Canada will hold in the future.A foreword is given by Samuel Jronfman, President of The House of Seagram, and outlines the ploneering spirit of Canada and the people who make up the nation.It tells of the development of the country, the friendship of the United States and the part business must play in the developing of this great country.Mr.Bronfman points out that commercial interests must ever be turning to help in developing the country.He also writes of the destiny in the future and the principles for which we are fighting.There is also a foreword by the author which explains the general tone of the writings in the various chapters.This book is a private publication but it contains much of interest to everyone and does credit to the House of Seagram for the faith they have in Canada and its future and for thelr enterprise in having this chronicle written and published in such pleasing form.We quote the last paragraph of the author\u2019s foreward as being significant of the spirit of the foregoing paragraph: \u201cI would like to add one further word.It may well be that in the writing of this book the execution has fallen short of the alm.But there is no doubt of the value to our country of such a record of history and the life of its people as this book was designed to be by those who collaborated in planning it.Canada has always been fortunate in the generous help given in the past to education, art and science by those eminent in commercial life.The House of Seagram in their public-spirited design in the production of this volume, worthily take their place in this honoured company.\u201d Chronology \u2014of \u2014 CHATEAUGUAY, BEAUHARNOIS and HUNTINGDON COUNTIES From Manuscripts of The Late ROBERT SELLAR WM.CALDWELL (Continued) The first burying ground was on a knoll south-west of the Methodist Church.My mother was buried there and a child of who was sanlded by falling into a cooler of boiling lye.The first marriages were those ot Jas.Paul and Peter Horn.The woods were heavy with snow and McWat- tie was long in coming.He would not stay and I drove him to Norton's, where Wm.Coldwell now lives.I think Dr.Matheson held service in the Vilage and am sure Dr.Black did, for he baptized my oldest girl in the old school where Boyd now lives \u2014'31 I think.I was in the bush working, when somehow my mind got full of thoughts and I sat down on a log, when I heard the horn.It was too early for supper, so supposed somebody wanted to see me, and taking up my axe went to my home, where I found supper on the table.My wife said that Miss Pearson and Miss Gordon had been in and left word that there was to be a prayer meeting at the school (then on Me- Nair\u2019s hill) for a revival of religion.The expression was new to us all, but I felt as if some thing was coming as if it were a cry \u201cAwake Thou Sleeper.\u201d I went to the meeting, which was attended by two from Huntingdon\u2014Adam and Johnston of LaPrairie.They made the announcement, that Currie, a revivalist was coming.Fears were entertained that Mr.Walker would not give him the church, to preach in on Sunday, but he did and meetings were held during the following week every night in the house where Oney now is (lot 2) but the church was refused the second Sunday.This bore on my mind and after a struggle I felt it my duty to go and see Mr.Walker about it.He received me kindly, said he perceived there was a great change in me, asked me the names of the converts, so that they might be watched for 10 years, to see if their change was genuine and offered to lend me any books from his library.He would give me no satisfaction about allowing Currie the use of the church, but promised to attend one of his meetings.I asked him to let us unite in prayer.He shook like a leaf, though he consented and I who could not have prayed a few days before, had full utterance.Mr.Walker attended as promised and was as Saul amongst us for he was very tall, interested in the service and joining heartily in the hymns.He, however, turned against the movement more and more as time went on and some 32 of his people withdrew and joined a congregation, Our first church was a log hquse, now a stable, where Josen lives.Currie stayed a short time.He was sent out by the Home Mission of the American Presbyterian Church, as were the Misses Gordon and Pearson.The former taught in the village\u2014the latter in our school.She was I think our first teacher, though the school was up before she came.Both were good women: were Americans, paid by the Mission and stayed two years,when they left, I suppose for the States.An antipathy got up against both | by St.Andrews\u2019 people and a meeting was called to put Miss Pearson out of our school.À number of us met to prevent it and tho\u2019 John Mack said he would do it, he dared not.They were disappointed by Rev.| Mr.Walker not coming as promised.Our second minister was Deaman, an American.We had several ministers, the trouble being to pay them, which we could not have, but for the help from the congregation in Montreal.It was in Dobie\u2019s time the j church was built, and he went beg- .ging for it all over, on both sides of lines.Young Andrew Millen went in with us.(To be continued) Great Britain Honors Pledge Will Not Sheath Sword Until Pledge Has Been Fulfilled As the result of a debate in the House of Lords in December, this motion was adopted: \u201cThat the House of Lords having learned with indignation and horror that during the occupation of Poland the authorities of Hitlerite Germany have, for no crime other than that of being Poles, officially executed more than 140,000 Poles, men and women, tortured many more in prisons and concentration camps, deported 1,500,000 to slave labour in Germany.and robbed more than 2,000,000, in the western provinces, of all they possessed before expelling them to Central Poland, thus in every way outraging both international law and the laws of humanity, expresses to the Polish people its heartfelt admiration for their inspiring example of continuous and unflinching fortitude; protests in the name of civilization against the policy of deliberate extermination of the Polish people; and pledges its word to heroic Poland that her sacrifices will not be in vain, and that due retribution for these crimes will unfailingly be cxacted.\u201d It is of particular interest to Canadians that the man who introduced this motion in the House of Lords is the grandson of that famous Earl of Elgin who did so much to bring constitutional freedom to Canada.Lord Elgin in introducing his motion pointed out that appalling as the figures given in it were, they were becoming worse day by day.\u201cIn the last few weeks we witnessed a terrific intensification of terror.\u201d He emphasized two points: Three times Great Britain had given a solemn pledge to Poland; first when she entered the war; then confirmed by Mr.Churchill; and finally by Mr.Eden.His second point was that Poland had earned such pledges not only by her suffering but also by her heroic exploits against terrific odds.His own personal associations with men of the Polish army confirmed what others had said.He found among the Poles \u201cthe spirit of courtesy, courage, culture and chivalry second to none, and in all cases backed by deep-set religious faith and an intense belie?that the spirit of Poland cannot die\u201d It was, he said, \u201can honour to stand beside and cooperate with such an ally and to proclaim emphatically that our pledge must be redeemed.\u201d Earl Selborne, accepting the motion on behalf of the government, pointed out that Poland \u201chas the eternal glory of being the first country to bar the way to Hitler's aggression and to choose honour instead of servitude\u201d.With magnificent gallantry, though armed with inadequate weapons, the Poles had stood up to the terrific onslaught of German aircraft and tanks, That gallantry had been neither forgotten nor forgiven.\u201cSince that day the whole of Nazi- dom\u2019s fury had been poured and concentrated on Poland,\u201d Every method that ingenuity, assiduity and deviltry could suggest to break the Polish people's spirit had been tried, \u201cbut they had not succeeded and they will never succeed.\u201d Nor must it be forgotten that \u201cIn the fight the Poles are waging they are not fighting for thelr own rights and their own liberties alone, but for the liberties of mankind as well\u201d.Lord Selborne renewed the solemn pledge of the government.\u201cI can assure our Polish allies\u201d he said, \u201cthat the stand Canadians Given Insight Of British Food Situation In Rationed Supplies List To be transported suddenly from Canada to wartime Britain would bring home to the Canadian consumer how very much better off he is in regard to the amount and variety of food he js able to obtain, food experts believe.Other members of the United Nations are managing to keep healthy and

creatures for their contact with hu- | man-kind has not been such as to inspire confidence.Sometimes it takes infinite patience and time to make friendly overtures.These conditions are shameful in a civilized communi\u2018y and particularly in a country as rich and plentiful as our own.It is our duty to accord these neglected outcasts plain justice.The cat, clean by habit and less trouble than any other pet when properly housed and cared for, is the oldest domesticated animal in existence.Moreover, it is exceedingly smart and possesses exceptional psychic intelligence.None more so than the common alley feline which responds remarkably to kindness if it has been abused.Tracing its lineage to the days of the Egyptians by whom the cat was held in high esteen because of its superior powers and aristocratic tendencies, it dwelt in those days in the lap of luxury and contentment.It still retains that inherent love for comfort so commonly known today.: At these times we are reminded of Alexander Von Humboldt's words when he said, \u201ccruelty to animals is one of the most significant vices of a low and ignoble people.Wherever one notices them, they constitute a sure sign of ignorance and brutality which cannot he painted over, even by all the evidences of wealth and luxury.Cruelty to animals cannot exist together with tiue education and true learning.\u201d It is believed that Italy was the first to transport our furry friends from Egypt and in turn introduce other parts of the world.Some years ago Rome turned one of its huge parks into a \u201csanctuary\u201d for stray cats where they were cared for under human guardianship.It would be only decently human to adopt this plan in all communities since there seems to be no other legitimate solution to the probem.Before the war many European ports maintained large armies of cats in order to protect their grains.Well fed and cared for by people employed for that purpose alone, the authorities discovered that cats are better \u201cratters\u201d under the most favorable conditions.Although our Humane Societies take care of prolific numbers that trail our thoroughfares summer and winter, many do actually perish from starvation and cruel neglect.This situation should have the kindly thought of every individual.Kilbain The Misses Margaret, Evelyn and Madeline Bannon, of Montreal, spent the week-end at the home of their parents, Mr.and Mrs.E.Bannon.Mr.and Mrs.A.Legault and three children spent Sunday at home of her mother, Mrs.M.Foran.Speaking of literature, the students of Grade XI of Bedford High School were taken to Montreal recently to attend the performance of Shakespeare's Richard II, by the Repretory Theatre Guild at the High School of Montreal, It\u2019s Time To Recognize Agriculture As A War Industry Saturday Evening Post for January 30th has a leading editorial with above title, They ridicule Washington's (Ottawa's) policy of \u201cwishful thinking on farm productions.\u201d .There is no condoning a policy that has confronted farmers with obstacle after obstacle.They are alarmed at the lack of manpower and absence of needed machinery that it revealed in Eastern States.Keys to materials and manpower were in the hands of city-minded people who never have understood fully what kind of a business farming is these days .Machinery 1s so short that recently a three-year- old tractor in Wisconsin sold for $325 more than its original cost .Too many agencies that know nothing of Agriculture have had a finger in the pie .\u201d In the same issue \u201cI Speak for the Middle-Class Farmer,\u201d by Ed.Will, explains the position of the average Eastern Farmer in these times.Mr.Will lives near Odessa, N.Y.and belongs to the Farm Bureau.Just for good measure, there is a very amusing article, \u201cHeil Hen!

Death.After the winning of the war, the question uppermost in people's minds is naturally that of reconstruction.Naturally also so basic a line of production as agriculture must call for serious consideration in connection with reconstruction.I heard a brainy and well-informed man say not long ago that he could imagine it possible (he did not say probable) that when the war was over no investment of any species whatsoever outside of land would be of any value.He was hoping, as we all are, that it wouldn't turn out like that, but it is easy to understand that land, as the source of food and life will be essentially precious in a world impoverished by universal war, Last spring, agricultural scientists, representing Great Britain and six Nazi-occupied nations met in London to study plans to combat postwar famine conditions in Europe.À writer says, around the conference table in London were British, Norwegians, Danes, Netherlanders, Croats, Poles and Czechs, faced with the greatest problem agriculturalists have had to solve, The chairman, Sir E.John Russell said, among other things, we must get the agriculture of each country going so that food can be produced on the spot, especially milk and the protective foods necessary to save the children from growing up into diseased and deformed men and women.First and most important will be the provision of seed, and an Allied committee had such matters in hand before the London meeting.Experts in each country were asked to draw up schedules of the seed needed.Fodder crops were to be high on the priority list as it would be impossible to provide fodder for animals, whilst relief organizations might do mucn to supply food for the people.The United States and Canada are expected to help supply seeds, for the range of solis and climates is as great as in Europe.Supplying the peasants with animals will be the next problem.Shipping space will be a difficulty here.BACKACHE OFTEN WARNING Dodd'sKidney Pilis SET SEX In those regions where mass migration has taken place, the land will have to be re-settled.The opposite problem, one chronic and widespread in Europe, is that of the surplus agricultural populations.| This was largely solved in the last war by emigration to Canada, Australia, the United States and South America, but emigration has become more difficult, Two methods of relief are planned.One is to try to adopt the intensive systems of Holland.Denmark, Norway and Poland to other parts of Europe.But 1n these countries, it has been proved that success in intensive farming depends on good markets.Concentration on market-gardening, fruit- growing and poultry-keeping, to be successful, demands access to a larger consumer population, and also calls for higher standards of nutrition such as are now developing YOURE A ROYAL'S WHIZZ OF A WHIZZ A COOK OF A YEAST / HEALTH NOTES YOUR TEETH \u201cTeeth are like wives, Neglect \u2018em and you're headed for trouble,\u201d declares a pamphlet entitled \u201cBe Kind to Your Teeth\u201d, just released by the Industrial Division of the Health League of Canada far distribution among Industrial workers.Accompanying the pamphlet is a striking cartoon-style poster illustrating how even a toothache can cut down vital war production, which is available for use on factory notice boards at a nominal charge.\u201cBe Kind To Your Teeth\u201d points out that a deoayed tooth, if neglected, may lead to chronic, serious, or even fatal illness, such foods as candy, sugar cakes, pastry (the refined carbohydrate foods) should be used in strict moderation as their excessive use contribute to dental decay.On the other hand, the pamphlet advises, uncooked foods such as green vegetables, raw fruits and dairy products are good for the teeth, Meat and eggs are needed for vitamins\u2014except vitamin D which is provided by sunlight in the summer.During the fall and winter months cod liver oil or other fish oil added to the diet furnishes vitamin D.Exercise for the be healthy, it is stated.Vigorous chewing of food does the trick.Proper care of teeth, it emphasizes, Includes brushing them after cach meal, using a small toothbrush with well separated tufts; the use of dental floss or cotton thread drawn between the teeth to remove food particles; brushing the upper teeth downward and the lower teeth upward; brushing vigorously the top surface of back teeth, and washing the mouth out with clean water.Periodic examinations by a careful dentist are essential, it is stated.At least one visit a year is necessary.A good dentist will stress prevention\u2014frequent cleaning of the teeth, the filling of Howick The monthly meeting of the Georgetown Bible Class was held at the home of Mr.and Mrs.Allister McArthur, on Wednesday evening, Jan.28th, with a fair attendance.The meeting opened with singing, followed by the Lord's Prayer in unison.Committees were formed to try and arrange a toboggan party in the near future.Following the bus iness meeting the secretary read letters of thanks from members of the Bible Class, who had received Christmas boxes, an invitation was extended to Georgetown Bible Class from the Akita C.G.IT.to a toboggan party, to be held at Riverfield on Feb.5.Games were played and refreshments served, after which the President moved a vote of thanks to Mr.and Mrs, Allister McArthur.Mrs.J.8.Rorison spent the latter part of last week in Montreal.Three nurses from the Barrie Memorial Hospital, the Misses Bustard, Long, and McGibbon, spent Wednesday with Nurse McKell at the home of her parents, Mr.and Mrs, Fdgar McKell.Mr.Archie McKell, BS.C.of Nitro, also visited at the same Home.and treatment of infection of the ums.Lost time from work ls lost wages, points out the pamphlet.It costs less to prevent than to cure.This ts the third of a series of publioations designed to keep small cavities, early recognition in England.Again, the consumer class will increase in proportion to industrial development.Peasants who move to the towns help their fellow peasants by becoming buyers of farm produce.In many parts of Europe they do not, so far seem to have been troubled by a shortage of farm-labour.After the war, both agriculture and industry must be affected by the fearful decimation of war casualties, both deaths and dis- ablements, Where is the money coming from \u2018n give the European peasantry 4 fresh start?Agencies similar to Cooperative Societies are being created to relieve credit and marketing worries.Sir John Russell states that it will also be necessary to have staffs of agricultural instructors and to set up in the villages something like what they already have where short courses in the best and improved methods will be given to prepare both men and women for work.Where countries require financing from other sources, it will be a matter of self-interest to arrange for ii.Sir John said, \u201cIt is a matter for financial experts a starving a Europe would greatly hold up recovery throughout the world, and ît might end with another war\u2014a I peasants\u2019 war.\u201d If the peasant sces only bare carth instead of a crop, and knows there can be no crop tor many months, \u201cthen he will assuredly make trouble.\u201d industrial workers on the job.February Special!

and wonder when I am all alone, Sad memories are the only thing that grief can call its own.Like the ivy around the oak tree that ever clinging vine, Ang the petals of the roses with drops of dew, oh how they shine! They are all so beautiful and yet there comes a day They fade, and die, and wither, and then they're gone away.But one memory will always linger, of a friendship good and true, That's the memory of mother who passed away Jan.31st, 1942.M.McDowell.In Memoriam MARSHALL: In loving memory of a very dear husband Willlam H.Marshall who died Feb.2nd, 1842.Remembered always by his loving wife Margaret.Canada\u2019s railways operate many services which in the United States are provided by companies other than those of the railroads.These include hotel systems, express and telegraph systems and sleeping car service.The Canadian National is the only railway system in North America which operates a ship building plant, When paint brushes on the farm are stored away for winter, they should first be thoroughly cleaned and drled.It is important that they be stored flat with the bristles straight.Wrapping in heavy ¢ardboard or between wooden slats Percy Chavin, Auditor.\u2019 will attain this object.x oa fod fod foi 16 te SO} fo % qu 18 $14 1/ 12 He SE a Vs f poplar, pine, spruce, Wednesday, February 3rd, 1943 Fuelwood Prices Revised Revised Prices as They Affect Counties of Chateauguay, Huntingdon and Beauharnois Are Shown Prices of fuelwood in designated cities, towns and villages in the western and south shore counties of Quebec are revised in a schedule made public by L.C.Robitaille, prices and supply representative of the Wartime Prices & Trade Board, Montreal.Maximum prices are set out in the schedule.thin part \u201cB\u201d of the schedule, -aximum prices are set for counties of Beauharnois, Chambly, Cha- teauguay, Huntingdon, Laprairie, Napierville, Richelieu, St.Hyacinthe, St.Jean and Vercheres (except municipalities named in part \u201cC\" of the schedule) and for the following municipalities: Asbestos, Aylmer, Beebe, Cap de la Madeleine, Coaticook, Drummondville, Gatineau, Gatineau Point, Granby, Grand™ere, Iberville, Joliette, La- chute, La Tuque, Magog, Rock Island, Shawinigan Falls, Sherbrooke, St.Agathe, St.Jerome, Stanstead and Three Rivers.The schedules for these centres follow: Hard maple, beech, yellow birch, oak\u2014all bodywood: $13 for four- foot length;

hundreds of men work at top speed.Police and guards kepi all except in smoothly and efficiently, and he personally took us around, introducing us to the heads of the various sections, and explaining what they were doing and how they carried out their dutles.He also took us through a part of the building, (it would have taken too long to go through it all), to see what the effect of such a hombing was.In the event of a bombing causing such damage, two things are started at once, looking after casualties, and summoning the members of the AR.P.They use what is known as the snowball system to summon the members, that is, each man has to call four others.In this way all the members are very quickly notified.is of m Setting Up Organization As soon as all casualties are removed, the first thing is to set up a main office known as the ARP.Liaison office, which keeps in close touch with everything that is going on.In this case, the office of the building mace an ideal location, but where such a room is not available, the nearest suitable place is taken.The office work is broken down so that there is a section looking after each activity.All this is done almost in as little time as it takes to tell about it.Then an intensive search of the huilding is made with the double purpose of ascertaining if there are any trapped persons, and to study if the building can be repaired and what it will require to do this, At the same time any bodies not previously removed are taken away.Another group is taking rapid steps to salvage anything that can be saved by quick work, and this is followed by a more leisurely effort to salvage everything possible.Transportation must be arranged as required.Other groups are arranging for food, providing money where necessary, to the unfortunate victims, and a housing department finds accom- an in at workers from going close to the modation for the bombed out peo- building, and as we were Intensely ple if they have no other place to

ada.we presented our as everywhere else in England.were received with the officer of the local AR.P.His organization was smoothly and efficiently.and personally took us around, introducing us to the heads of the various sections, and explaining what they were doing and how they carried out their duties.His organization was greatest courtesy and conductd to the chizf working working sible to repair the building, contractors and workmen are called to start work without delay.Otherwise the debris is more or less cleaned up and replacement postponed until after the war.All these various groups were on the job at once and carrying out their tasks as if it were everyday routine.On the street in front of the building was a canteen truck which bore on its sides a sign showing that it had been presented to the Lord Mayor's Fund by Ford Victotia, Southern Rhodesia.we he ¢ EAT RIGHT FEEL RIGHT Join Canada\u2019s |, TEDSTONE\u2019S : BAKERY and RESTAURANT In the courtyard were a number of men sweeping the grass.One of our party called attention to them remarking that there was an example of typical British efficiency, to which are guide replied, \u2018\u2019That is something that is absolutely necessary.Those men have already recovered two valuable rings and a cigarette case.\u201d We were told that the action of a bomb is about as unpredictable as that of a stroke of ! lightning, and frequently the explosion will suck all small articles right of a building.Another important detail which must be carried out at once, is to test the walls and building to make sure that they will not fall on workers.Trained Workers Required It will be seen that many of these details require trained men, and it was not surprising to find that our guide in private life was a building contractor.Even by the time we got there, workers were already preparing to make repairs, and were chipping out the remains of broken windows, and window glass was arriving to replace necessary windows.One essential thing is that wardens know all the people in their territory and that they account for them to make sure that nobody is missing.Compensation Described In regard to compensation, the Hon.Herbert Morrison, Minister of .| War Services told us that victims are given clothes and, if necessary, some money to carry on.If their home is so damaged that they cannot use it, they are billetted.However, real compensation is not given until the del 00 SANDWICHES can be made from a \u201c= BOVRIL icious nourishing is highly concentrated.toast: try it today.a., | EG fee end of the war, New houses could not be supplied now anyway, on account of shortage of materials, If a house can ba repaired, easily, or if temporary repairs will enable it to be used, the cost is sometimes allowed, but this will be deducted from any future settlement.The organization known in Cane tada as Civilian Protection Committee, or Air Raid Precaution or AR.P.is now called \u201cCivil Defence\u201d in England and is considered most important work.As Mr.Morrison told us, it is now a major act of war, so local authority is not enough.The studies made of this work and its results are of great benefit to others, Quick communication is necessary, and as the telephones are state owned there is full co-operation, but more than that is necessary as the telephones might very possibly be put out of action.Therefore a system of messengers must be provided for.Sabotage has been surprisingly little, so we were informed, and theft or taking advantage of another's misfortune is practically unknown, Early Efforts Important One thing should be impressed upon the people of Canada, and that is that much of the early damage by raiders could have been prevented it proper precautions had been taken before the raids bgan.and if the organization had been perfected in advance.That is to say, much damage was caused by fires which got out of hand because there were not enough properly trained fire fighters to deal with the emergency when it arose.The time for Canadians to prepare for such emergencies is now.not after some city has suffered a bad raid.In the same way that the telephones might be interrupted, the water mains may be destroyed with disastrous effect.Therefore provision has been made in every community in England to have plenty of water in storage.Thousands of basements of buildings that have been destroyed are being used for this purpose, Thee cemented on the walls and bottom so that they will hold and have been filled with water.We saw many of these, and also other great storage tanks ready for an emergency.Large signs are posted indicating where static water is to be found.This is necessary so that in the excitement and confusion of an emergency the nearest storage of water is located without delay.{ While all other direction signs in | England are entirely lacking even ithe smallest community has no end .of signs indicating where the warden | lives, or can be found.where static {water is stored.where air raid shelters are located, and the location of stirrup pumps.Probably there are -more signs in England reading Stirrup Pump here\u201d than any other, In addition to working hard at regular war work, nearly every man in England has to take his share in Civil Defence work.Women Workers .While we were in England, Mr.Herbert Morrison issued an appeal for a very large number of women to volunteer for work us fire watchers.This means night work patrolling buildings, climbing on roofs and other hard work.There was a great deal of criticism of this appeal because it was felt that it was not fit work for women, that it was too hard and too dangerous.The answer to this criticism was that twice as many women volunteered for this work than was asked for.When you look over the roofs of English cities, the first thing that strikes you are chimney pots.Every building has a battery of anywhere up to a dozen or more of these pots.The roofs are generally more cut up with all kinds of turrets than is the case in Canada, and with these chimney pots it makes the roofs hard to get at and hard to patrol.Ladders are usually kept on them so that any part of the roof can be quickly reached.This work is most important during ralds, and the proper control of incendiaries on these roofs just means the difference between damage and staggering losses.In the parish magazine of St.Mary Redcliffe Church, Bristol, the church which Queen Elizabeth in 1574 described as being the \u201cfairest, goodliest, and most famous Parish church in England.\u201d I read this appeal, \u201cWithout question the greatest material treasure in Bristol is St.Mary Redcliffe Church.I now ask the women of Bristol if they will help to guard it against fire.We want two, at least, and three better still, to be on duty every night.Women between 17 and 50 will be welcomed, and if you arrange with a friend or friends to take on one night a week, you will be doing great service.Now is the time to strengthen our band of watchers before the winter begins.\u201d Some say that the reason there have been so many churches destroyed in England is due to the difficulty in protecting these roofs from incendiaries.It seems to be very difficult work to ask women to do, yet they are cheerfully responding to the appeals.And remember, that in all probability, the women who take on this work, will do it in addition to working at their regular occupation every day.The first great fire of London was in 1666, the second one was in 1940.Every able

exhaustion, and that engines ran until their bearings were burnt out.I have even heard it said that if the German Ralders had come back one more succeeding night, the whole city would have gone as the men and equipment could not have carried on any longer.Raids Not Over The people of England now seem to think that the worst is over, that such raids cannot happen again.They are encouraged in this belief by the fact that the defences are so much better than they were, that there are more und better planes for defence, that there are many more balloons, that the ack-ack is stronger and better, that the AR.P.is much better organized and more effective.The Hon.Mr.Morrison told us that there are now 1450 fire companies merged into the National Fire Ser- ce.Authorities however, hold a different view.They are warning the people that increased heavier raids ara not only possible but very probable.Some authorities say that the recent months have only been a lull In which Germany has been tooling up in order to unlease heavier bombs on England more after the block busting type.At the same time it is believed that before long Canada will have German bombs dropping on her, that at the same time that Germany is tooling up for heavier raids on England that she is making preparations to send planes capable of longer cruising range that will enable her to bomb America.Therefore we

of decay, and who are obviously trying to keep dark some closely guarded secret of the past, is the intriguing story of Warner Bros.\u2019 newest film, \u201cThe Gay Sisters,\u201d which shows at O'Connor Theatre Sunday and Monday, Feb, 7 and 8., The picture features a brilliant cast made up of Barbara Stanwyck, George Brent, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Nancy Coleman and a fine newcomer for whom film critics and preview audiences allke predict a bright future, Gig Young.The story is adapted from the best-selling novel by Stephen Longstreet, whose powerful writing was transplanted in all its strength from print to film.The three Gaylord sisters (nicknamed the \u2018Gay sisters\u2019 by the press) Fiona, Lady Burton and Susanna, played respectively by Barbara Stanwyck, Geraldine Fitzgerald and Nancy Coleman, are theoretically worth a fortune but are actually up to their necks in debt.This situation is due to the fact that cne Charles Barclay, played by George Brent, has contested their father's will and has manag to keep the case in various courls for over twenty years in the hope that the Gaylords would be forced to sell him their property.But Fiona, who had it instilled in her from childhood that a Gaylord never sells the land, has another, more personal reason for refusing to give in to Charles Barclay.It is her secret relationship to Barclay that surrounas the Gaylord family with an aura of mysticism until the day the entire, thrilling story is exploded in one mighty blast.Irving Rapper directed the film which was written by Lenore Coffee.The excellent supporting cast 1s made up of such Hollywood favorites as Donald Crisp, Gene Lockhart, Larry Simms and Donald Woods.The fine musical background was written by the incomparable Max Steiner, Patterns Curtailed

through.Why just last week seven ore badges were passed, bringing BR > total for the month of January vi08e to the 20 mark, This is indeed quite 8 record.For the benefit of those interested, the following badges were passed last week: Mervin R.Elliott, Launhdryman; Jimmy Bickford, Laundryman; David Irving, Mason, Priend to Animals; Keith Fawcett, Friend to Animals; Billy Sandys, Priend to Animals; George Gregory, Poultry- man Nice going fellows, keep up the good work.You are doing splendidly.The attendance at last Thursday's meeting was more than twenty.When this writer ventured into the club rooms of the troop, which arc located in the Masonic Temple on Lorne Avenue, he was pleased to find that out of the 20 present, about four boys did not possess uniforms.Mr.Bickford, Scoutmaster, was happy to see this sight, and expressed his gratitude.The boys are being so particular about their appearance when inspection time comes round, that it is difficult to take off points, these days.When instruction time came, most every boy was occupied with some test or other.While some were being instructed, others were being passed.It seems that the most popular test or badge is Ambulance work of all kinds.This is rightly so because their British Scout cousins believe that this is one of the most, if not the most important badge in these trying times.More so when cities are being bombed and the need for first aid is being called upon so heavily.Scouts throughout the world know only too well the importance of possessing a good knowledge of first ald.Also because that the Ambulance Badge is a must, for a Scout to have a King\u2019s Scout Crown.The Patrol Leaders of the troop pp held a brief Court of Honour meet- wir ing after last week's meeting in order to discuss the helping of the Stag Patrol along, as this patrol is short of a couple of men, it was decided that something would be done to bring David Irving's patrol up to strength.David was congratulated on the marvellous recovery that his patrol has made during the last two weeks, When the time rolled around to tally the points given for the evening's work, the Stags were only one point behind the leading patrol, Wolf headed by George Goodfellow.At the end of January the patrol standings were: Wolves, 44; Stags, 28; and 39 for the Beavers.According to an unconfirmed rumour I hear that the local boys are going to put on some sort of an exhibition of Scoutcraft in a show- window locally.I do hope that it does come off all right.This would be an excellent idea during Boy Scoul Week February 21st to 27th, Come on fellows I hope this is true.Just a reminder to the Patrol Leaders, don't forget to save your money for the Patrol Leaders\u2019 Banquet which is going to be held in Montreal, February 20th.Don't forget to keep this big event before you.Scouting Generally Captain Eddie Rickenbaker sald of the Boy Scout Movement: \u201cNo youth movement has done more to reach the hearts and homes of boys and sow the seeds of upright citizenship than the Boy Scouts.My personal enthusiasm for the work of the Boy Scouts knows no bounds.\u201d Here is another case of a Scout.THIS YEAR uA Val I's good business, this year, to start your chicks earlier than ever.For good BRAY Chicks, see LOUIS FORGET Ormstown or HELIODORE BRAIS St.Chrysostome He was Rover Scout H.Haworth of the 8th Blackpool Boy Scout Group, experience is unique in that he lives to tell the tale, It seems that he had been twice torpedoed and his ships sunk in one trip.Out in Iran a former Scout Patrol Leader, of Northampton, who is in the Royal Air Force, has formed a Boy Scout Troop out there.The troop is very successful, In spite cf language difficulties, the Iranian boys are very enthusiastic, Through an interpreter, all orders ere passed on to the boys, 50 you can see that language is no bar.Last summer Boy Scouts of the 5th Whitley Troop, England, returned from their summer camp, only to find their town had been bombed, They went right to werk by cleaning up the town, removing furniture, helping the bombed people and making tea for A.RP.workers.Others helped in the local hospital.A refugee from Germany, Herbert S.Ermann, aged 16, now a member of a British Scout treop, was recently awarded the Scout Certificate of Gallantry for fire-fighting during an enemy raid.A short while ago, Superintendent Herbert Darling of the R.CM.P.said of the Scouts: \u201cI have never had anything to do with a Scout in my capacity as a policeman.A Scout has no time for what is wrong.\u201d Because of his Scout training, a British lad wrote to Imperial Headquarters relating how he was chosen to umpire stalking positions in Commando training and as a demonstrator in first aid lectures, An extract from \u201cScouting Under Fire\u201d, by Mark Conway, tells how the \u201cExpert knowledge of a wide area surrounding his home town enabled Scout Sidney Robinson to lessen the sufferings and possibly to save the lives of several people.The Chief Scout has awarded the Scout Gilt Cross for Gallantry to him for all the hard work that he did.Well, that\u2019s all for this time fellows, so until next week, good hunting and good Scouting, above all carry-on.Tired Businessman Subject For Nutrition Probably the tired business man wouldn't be so tired if he ate the right foods, according to nutritionists.\u201cTo do a good job, nerves must be steady, eyesight good, muscles toned up and the body functioning well and to achieve this vitamins and minerals must be absorbed into the system.This micans including milk, cheese, vegetables and fruits in the diet\u201d according to Dr.L.B.Pett when asked what advice he would give Canada's business men in 1943.Nutrition Services, headed by Dr.Pett in the Department of Pensions and National Health is guiding the government-sponsored Canadian Nutrition Program which has been launched for the purpose of helping Canadians get the most value out of available -wartime food supplies.Proper nutrition is not an answer fo all ills, says the doctor, but it has been proved that fatigue and many illnesses can be avoided or modified if the right attention is given to diet.Generally speaking he believes that the average business man\u2014 especially those who eat their midday meal in town, fill themselves up on starchy and sweet foods and fats and don't leave enough room for the protective foods\u2014 milk, cheese, vegetables and fruits.\u201cStart the day with a whole grain cereal and at every meal make sure you have some of the protective foods, then fill up on others\u201d is Dr.Pett's advice.The importance of these foods is recognized in all the new diets for the armed forces and it should equally be recognized by workers on the home front.\u201cThe man who lives à sedentary life behind a desk indoors, doesn\u2019t give his body a chance unless he feeds it well with these protective foods\u201d says Dr.Pett.\u201cInstead of eating two heavy meals a day every man should make a point of having one light meal of milk, or milk soup or pudding, a salad of raw vegetables or fruits and possibly eggs.If he doesn\u2019t find this filling enough let him have a wholewheat or Vitamin B bread or.bran muffins, which will HR TT TT.PRIN reflects credit Che Huntingdon TE Is an essential to every line of

down.A small casting, which costs less than one dollar, was lost in the hay field and the mower could not be operated until it was replaced.This delay could have been avoided and valuable time saved for a cost of one cent, as the delay was caused by a cotter-pin which wore off and allowed the casting to fall off the mower, If this pin had been inspected and replaced before the haying season started, the hay crop would have been harvested earlier with less labour hours and at a lower cost, observes W.Kalb- fleisch, Agricultural Engineer, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa.Next summer many \u2018last minute\u2019 repairs will not be possible due to conditions caused by the war.Provision has been made for the production of a large volume of repair parts, but all dealers may not have all the parts which may be required at a moment's notice.Because of difficulties in transportation and in estimating the requirements of each district, it is necessary to order repair parts early so that the machinery dealers can place the required repair parts in stock.Both labour and money can be saved by ordering repairs parts now and by thoroughly overhauling machinery and equipment this winter, To determine the repair parts which are required every machine should be inspected.After the first order of parts are obtained the machines should be overhauled and all : additional repair parts ordered so that they can be used when the machines are being assembled.Not only should field machinery be overhauled, but if pumps, grinders, feed hoppers and other such equipment are reconditioned now, labour can be saved next summer.Position of Farmers To judge from the flood of inquiries that still pour into Prices Board offices, there is still a good deal of confusion in the minds of farmers and their wives who make butter about what they should do under the rationing system.The first thing should be to register with the local ration board as a producer.If butter is made on the farm, whether for home use or for sale, the farmer must register as a butter producer.All that's necessary is to write a letter, giving name and address, and telling how much butter is produced and how often it's made.Every butter-making farmer should register by Jan.31.As to coupons: if a farmer has enough butter to last his household for some time, he should send to his local ration board brown coupons Nos, 1 to 9 to cover the amount of butter on hand in relation to the number of persons in the household.For instance, a family of 10 persons might have 50 pounds.The head of the household should send in the nine coupons for each person since the nine cover 4': pounds of butter each, and should also inform the ration board that he has 50 pounds on hand.If there is no large stock of butter on hand but butter is being made, then coupons should be sent in each month to cover the regular household consumption.Slaughter Permits Needed About 600 farmers In western Quebec have applied for livestock siaughtering permits, Prices Board officials say, but there are many who have not applied.Permits have heen required since Jan.1 by every farmer who slaughters livestock for sale.Application forms may be obtained from foods officers of the Prices Board, Aldred Building, Munt- real.For Highest Market Prices Instruct your trucker to deliver your livestock to Grant W.Roberts
