\u2014 Government Grants 9, 000 to County Hospital Future Development of Huntingdon Discussed Dinner Held at Chateau Provides Opportunity For Discussion of Many Subjects For Benefit of Community Friday evening a dinner was held in the Huntingdon Chateau, hosts heing Mayor W.E.S.McNair, Mr.N.F.Manning and Mr.J.A.Lange- vin, The purpose of this dinner party was that the group who signed the nete subscribing for the balance of the Victory Bonds in order to put the Huntingdon Town objective over the top, could honour the Victory ].oan Chairmen and talk things over for the mutual benefit of the Town ot Huntingdon In the interval, of time since the loan, thé bonds have been subscribed to, thereby relieving the signers of the note to assume any further responsibility.For three hours the men discussed almost everything possible that would work to the benefit of the town.Amongst the items discussed were included, an enlarged water main that would tend to improve fire protection in the town and at the same time serve a useful purpose to large buyers of water.Having a building by-law drawn up without further delay.How to have nuisance odors eliminated that originate from some of the local restaurants.Mayor McNair said he thought the mem- ers of the Volunteer Fire Brigade might well be honoured with a complimentary banquet under the aus- pires of the Board of Trade.Mr.Manning said he would take this matter up with the President.Mr.D, J.O'Connor.and he felt quite certain such would be done.Mr.Langevin asked the Gleaner to run items in that newspaper from time to time.appealing to the business people at large to be behind the Board of Trade and the local Realty Company whenever they can He said that on several occasions when financing was necessary for an in- oustrial purpose, it was always the same good folks who were ready to subscribe, vet often it was others who reaped the greatest benefit, and that they now know it, and should be ready to lend assistance.Mr.Langevin, the guiding head of thie Realty Company, said he thoughc Huntingdon should forge ahead after tne war in an industrial way better than most towns, as our set-up was exceptionally good.The relationship between the Shawinigan Water and Puwer Co, Board of Trade.Town Ccuneil and the Realty Conipany augured well for continued success in the way of creating or securing industrials.Most towns that have a Board of Trade, are without a Realty Company, and they have to depend on individuals to do financing which is so often required.Our Realty Company had its hard times years ago, today it is solvent and quite able to look to the future in a ccmmendable manner.Ald.Fawcett said that in the future we should endeavour to locate some type of industry other than for manpower in place of female help, is desired, to which all agreed.Mr.A.A.Lunan, Dr.J.E.Caza, Major J.H.Molson added much to the meeting in expressing their thanks to the hosts.Their timely comments upon the various matters | discussed throughout the evening were fully appreciated.Those present at the dinner were: Messrs, A.A.Lunan, A, Fawcett, L.Baillargeou, R.E.Cogland, A.L.Sellar.Dr.J.C.Caza, Major J.H.Molson, the three hosts, Messrs, J.A.Langevin, N.F.Manning and Mayor W.E.S.McNair, who presided.Messrs, W.K.Philps and D.J.O'Connor, M.P.P., viously made engagements.Following the dinner.which last- ec.for three hours, Mr.Lunan expressed himself in saying: \u201cI feel this is the best gathering of its kind I have ever attended in Hunt- ingdon, and that such meetings augur well for Huntingdon's future.\u201d No doubt similar gatherings will be held from time to time with not always the same personel in attend- ance.Town to Look After Own Snow Removal; New Plow For Truck New Polling Divisions to be Decided Upon\u2014 By-law to This Effect to be Brought in The Huntingdon Town Council met at the County Building on Monday evening, with all members pres- cnt and Mayor W.E.S, McNair in the chair.The minutes of the regular meeting and a special meeting held in November were read afid adopted.Mr.F.Lefebvre met the council and asked for some kind of drain- l age near his property on Chateau- guay street, next to Mr.Braith- waite's residence.The Council discussed the matter but as the pro- » perty in question is outside the town 74 À on\u201d UCE DR ORE re 1 t ERE

payment, with certain reservations on one or two of them.Mr.Jos, Brisebois appeared before the Council to ask for a permit to build a house on Lake Street.The permit was granted.A copy of a resolution passed by the Council of the Village of Orms- town, was read asking the Provincial Police to give more prompt action in cases of robberies and such like occurring in that town.The Ormstown Council asked the Hunt- ingdon Town Council to forward a similar resolution to the Police authorities, The Council decided that they were not dissatisfled with the *service given by the Provincial Police und therefore no action was taken.A report on the tests made of the water from the Filter Plant for the first eight days of November, was given as poor.Alderman J.E.Bar- WITH THE R.CAF.= mme me hy \u2018W1 Hazel M.Irving, W.OG.B.- ajor T.L.Irving, La Guerre, St.niet, Que.She was born at La terre, St.Anicet, on July 8th, 1824, And enlisted at Montreal, on Oct.f*, 1942.She is attached to the wire- Bc ni Is now stationed on the East rett was instructed to look into the niatter and see if the trouble couid be remedied.A request for a resolution from the Huntingdon Town Council, from the Dept.of Roads was read.The resolution was one authorizing the Department to make a charge of $75.per mile for snow removal on Lorne Avenue and Fairview Road, in order to comply with the winter program uf keeping certain highways open during the winter.The Council instructed the secretary to write and inform the Department that the Town would be doing this work.A letter was read from the Clerk of the Crown in Chancery.asking the Council to bring in a by-law to divide the Town into polls made up cf 300 voters or less, but not to exceed 300, in case of an election or by- election.After discussing this at some length, Alderman J.E.Barrett gave notice of motion that he would introduce a by-law so that the proper divisions could be made, at the next meeting.The Council approved the purchase of a snow plow from Eugene Cote, for $440.The plow is the wing type ond is expected to be ready this week-end.It is understood that the Provincial Government will allow up to one-third the cost of the plow The town truck will go into Montreal and the plow will be fitted to it.Alderman Cappiello voiced disapproval to using the town truck for snow plowing on account of the fact that he did not think the truck was strong enough for the job.He was in favour of advertising for tenders for à suitable truck to do the job for the season.He made a motion along these lines, but there was no seconder and the motion was lost.In the discussion most of the Councillors considered that the town truck was capable of doing the job.A suggestion was made that the street lights should go on at 5:45 P.M.and go off at 7:30 AM.There were many complaints now as the lights were off when people were going to work in the morning and they were not on when they were going home in the evening.Alderman Cappiello, chairman of the light committee said he would look after the matter and see what could be done.The question of heat at the Fire Hall was discussed and the commit- \u2018ee in charge of this will check on the matter.An amount of varied equipment was reported purchased for the Fire Dept.among which was various sizes ind lengths of new hose and new ~ouplings.The Council then adjourned.\u201cAILWAY PASSES SUSPENDED DURING CHRISTMAS PERIOD Railway passes will this year be uspended from December 21 *:j! \u201canuary 4.1944, the railways an- \u2018~unced.This corforms with

Is Well Attended The Masonic Church Service held in the United Church, on Sunday cvening, was an outstanding success, The Rev.Thomas Knowles was assisted by the Rev.J.B.Maclesn, D.D.and the Rev.W.S.Hatcher.kev, Knowles gave a most forceful address \u201cBuilding a Temple According to Plan.\u201d His discourse did not fall upon deaf ears, for after the service practically everyone present was uiscussing and making most commendable comments upon his sermon.Dr.Maclean and Rev.Hatcher were not only present and assisted in person, but were accompanied by their respective congregations.The united choirs of these three churches added much to the musical portion of this service which will be long remembered.In beautiful voice Mrs.W.R.Ross rendered a solo, \u201cThe Lord is My Shepherd.\u201d The offering received was for the benefit of The Huntingdon County Hospital and same amounted $106.30.The Free Masons attending numbered 60 strong.nine Masons attending were from the Valleyfield Lodge a number from Hemmingford, and a few from across the International Boundary.Church Claims Voice i in Social Policy Problems Are Insoluble Without Religion\u2019s Aid By Most Rev.J.G.McGuigan, Archibshop of Toronto The Church claims the right to a voice, and offers eagerly to lend a Eand, in the building of the new world which must follow the war In the United States a few weeks ago Archbishops and Bishops of the Catholic Church joined with leaders of a large number of other Christian denominations and of the Jewish fajth in proclaiming a seven-point programme for reconstruction, The programme figured largely in the Senate debate on the Connally resolution which pledged the adherence of that formerly isolationist chamber to a policy of international cooperation.In Canada the Hierarchy held a Plenary Meeting in Quebec from which issued a declaration appealing to all the faithful and to all in authority to promote urgently needed social reforms.This declaration was generously reported and widely commented upon by Canadian newspapers of every shade of political opinion.Reform Not Revolution The Bishops of Canada, in ad- ¢ressing themselves to Government and people on these vital matters of National welfare, are following the example of the Pope himself.Of all the actions of constructive leadership that the Pope has given throughout the war none was more dramatic than his address to a mass meeting of 26,000 workers in Rome on June 15, followed in less than three months by the fall of Musso- imi.As Prime Minister Churchil! testified, the Pope tried and failed to keep Italy out of the war.He is now striving to direct Italy, and the world, into paths of peace and 1eform, away from the extremes of right and left which would lead to the abysses of revolution.The social order in Canada has fortunately not had to endure such strains and stresses as in many European countries.but it is cleat that our condition does not warrant complacency, our economic system it under increasing challenge, and unless we take remedical measures in time we cannot assure ourselves that the social upheavals will not happen here.To Save Democracy The Church alone cannot build the new social order which is neaes- sary for the welfare of the whole nation: there must be collaboration hy governments, political parties, industry, labour and the citizens generally.But the Church believes that her own moral guidance and influence are indispensable and she is prepared to go out into the highways and byways to give her witness to social justice and to expound the Christian principles to which we owe all that is best in our civilization and without which neither Hberty nor democracy can survive, Two Curling Rinks

consumers are careful \u201cnobody will go cold this Winter,\u201d Munitions Minister Howe told a press conference.The coal situation now was better than the Munitions Department \u201chad any right to expect,\u201d with the supply of bituminous larger than it was last year.Hard coal still was in short sup- nly, so the consumer could not be \u201cchoosey\u201d when feeding the furnace.I'uel Oil Satisfactory The fuel oil situation was \u201csatisfactory,\u201d and supplies would see consumers through the Winter.The supply of fuel wood, believed Mr.Howe, would \u201cmeet the situation.\u201d

McCrimmon reports that she has received word from her son, Major Donald Mc- Crimmon, that he heard the broadcast on Wednesday, Nov.24th, and that it was just as clear as if it were in the same room.The recording was made by relatives who had boys overseas and naturally was quite interesting to the boys from this district who are serving over there.County Hospital Thirty-two women attended

Athelstan as well as from other points.During the winter time the amount of raw milk delivered to the plant is below that in the summer months.at present about 19.000 pounds of raw milk is being daly processed at the plant.When the evaporation process has been gone through this produces abou: 6.000 lbs.of evaporated milk.which is used in making the famous milk chocolate bars made by Fry-Cadbury in Montreal.A truck with a special tank is used to transport the evaporated milk daily to the Montreal plant from Huntingdon.The capacity of the tank being 6,000 pounds.All farmers bringing their milk to the Hun- tingdon plant have been supplied with a folder in which they can keep a record of all the pamphlets regarding milk treatment and general farming as published by the Department of Agriculture of the Province of Quebec.From time to time additional pamphlets are distributed to farmers as they are published.These provide much useful information to the farmers in seeing that the milk is kept of the desired quality required by Fry-Cadbury Ltd.The plant in Huntingdon employs a staff of five persons and the milk can be evaporated at the rate of 5,000 pounds per hour.This evaporation is done by means of special machinery composed of a number of vats into which the raw milk is pumped from one to the other as it passes through the different stages of progress.After the milk has been evaporated, the vats and pipes are thoroughly cleaned and sterilized in preparation for the receipt of the next batch.The milk after it is evaporated is pumped into the special tank on the truck mentioned.and is taken to Montreal for processing into chocolate and other cocoa products.This process is an exclusive one and is carefully guarded by the company to the benefit of the consuming public.Fry-Cadbury Ltd.has it in mind to enlarge the Huntingdon plant at the conclusion of the war, thus making it one of the most important industries in this district.Chocolate is considered to be a real food and is supplied to the forces as part of the emergency rations for air crew and lifeboats.The civilian population has not been able to get as much of this great product as would be desired, but this is due to the fact tha\u2018 most of it is going to the armed forces all over the world.It is a highly nourishing prc- duct due to its milk incorporation content and to the fact that only the richest part of the milk is retained for the ingredient.In the process of evaporation at the Huntingdon plant it is the water which is evaporated, which amounts to about two-thirds of the original quantity of raw milk processed.From the foregoing, it will be seen that this industry has done much for the farmers in the Chateauguay Valley, since its inception just over two years ago.The company naturally feels quite proud of its record and in this issue of The Gleaner is publishing an advertisement offering thanks to its farmer customers for their co-operation during the past two years.This co-operation has meant that the manufacture of Cadbury's Dairy Milk Chocolate has been kept in steady operation in quantities sufficient to keep a flow to the armed forces and for prisoner of war parcels.There is not a great deal of difference be- {ween the price paid to the farmer for raw milk today than when Fry-Cadbury commenced here two years ago, but the Government pays a subsidy which has increased the price.The price paid by this company two years ago was $1.90 per hundred pounds, today the price paid is $1.95 plus a bonus or subsidy by the Government of 30c, which brings the total to $2.25.This price is paid for milk which tests 3.5, an additional 5c per point is paid up to 40 and 2c per point after that.During the first two weeks of November the average test was 3.83 and the average price paid to each farmer was $242.Thus the advantages to the farmer and to the business people of Hun- tingdon as a result of this one industry will be readily seen.The Gleaner therefore wishes to offer congratulations to Fry-Cadbury Lid.on the attainment of its second birthday in Hunting- don.Both the names of Fry and Cadbury have been known to chocolate and cocoa users for numbers of years and thetr products have become househoid favorites.Can a League of Nations Outlaw War?OM time to time we receive at our office literature pertaining to the work of the League of Nations Society in Canada, this week a booklet was received entitled \u201cTake Your Choice\u201d, and contains a number of interesting stories on how war may be prevented in the future.People will say that the League of Nations failed to stop this war because they would not implement the sanctions against Italy when she attacked Ethiopia.But it should be remembered that the League of Nations was supposed to be just that, and that the nations belonging to the league were supposed to act in unity on matters in which the league may have jurisdiction.The trouble was that when matters came up which were those with which the League could have dealt.there was always one or another nation which did not wish to interfere.Their reasons might be that they would offend another nation which was a good customer, if they joined in with what the other members thought should be done, so in consequence the whole matter was dropped.The trouble was that there was no united stand.there was no unified agreement, countries which should have belonged to the League stayed on the outside.These countries figured they couid handle their own problems and stop anyone from interfering in their business.Hitler.Musso!ini and Tojo exploded all this idea as a myth and proved that someone else could interfere and could put them in very embarrassing positions.The time for a stand by members of the League of Nations was when Italy invaded Ethiopia and when Germany disregarded the Verseilles treaty at the time of the plebiscite for the Alsace Lorraine territory.and marched troops into that territory.Action by members of the League of Nations at that time might have prevented the present war.Both Italy and Germany were or had been members of the League, and were liable for censure for their actions.It is quite easy to understand that if a member of a League of Nations decides to attack another member and the rest of the members decide to put their weight on the side of the one tQ be attacked.the attacker would then find it very difficult to proceed.If all supplies from all other nations were cut off {rom the one that was the aggressor, it would be very hard for the latter to carry on a very long fight as it would be beaten before it started.The booklet mentioned in the beginning of this article.tries to show how a united stand on any subject can be made to have its ef- tect if the collective thoughts and energies of all are concentrated to this end.But if one portion of the people are bent on their pleasures and care nothing for the welfare of others.then the benefit of united action is lost.A league of nations can be made to work if all nations wiil make up their minds to do all they can do to see that it does work.It is not just a matter for individual governments to work out and decide, it is a matter for every individual of every nation.In connection with a league of nations, there should also be an international police force, so that no secret planning and plotting can be going on within the nations that could spring up into revolt or a disturbance such as Nazism or Fascism.If an international police force had been in operation during these times it is quite likely that the trend of these organizations would have been foreseen and the present war would have been nipped in the bud.Yes, we believe that a League of Nations worked out in proper perspectus could outlaw war.We also believe that with the jolt the people of the world have received in this present situation that a league of nations would be more willingly subscribed to after this conflict.Copies of the booklet mentioned in this article can be obtained from the League of Nations Society in Canada, 124 Wellington Street, Ottawa, Ont., at slight cost.3 J O Socialized Medicine OME form of state medicine and health insurance figures in the programmes of all Canadian political parties, although the candid opinion of the medical profession on the subject never seems to have been ascertained.It is probable that there would be as great a variety of opinion among doctors as among laymen, if a poll were taken.Some doctors would not object to completely socialized medical services, with all members of the profession employed by the Dominion or Provincial civil services.Others would consider such a development a blow to the dignity of the profession.Still others would favor extension of public health services on a socialized basis, but would oppose any attempt to regiment members of the profession who preferred to continue practising in their own way.It is true that medical services are more plentiful in cities than in villages, and the residents either call in a physician from the nearest town when they are ill, or try to get along without his assistance.It is simple enough to produce a plan for establishing a doctor in each community now lacking one, guaranteeing him a decent income from public funds, but it is not so easy to guarantee that the doctors will be available to fill the positions.Is a young man of ambition likely to enter a long and expensive course of professional training merely to become a civil servant in a remote village?Is the country prepared to subsidize medical educations in order to have properly qualified doctors everywhere?Or will a rationing system be set up, so that the number of doctors permitted to practise In a community will be limited by population?Without socialized medicine, there are still many varleties of work open to the graduate in medicine.Some enter private practice, others become professors or lecturers, still others take up preventive medicine as employees of the province or Dominion.In most cases, it must be assumed that they find the place to which they are best suited by thetr own tastes and abilities.THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER i For Distinguished Service | ©) Chronology \u2014 of \u2014 | | !

by Bowron who said there was a dispute about these lands.Abraham Welch told me that in conversation with Milne he told his intention was to clear off all in Russeltown and that he would disregard Winter's permit.About 1824, at request of John Morton then dying he went to ask for deed.Bow- ron said, \u201cPray tell the poor man to die in peace; if he lives he will get deed; if he dies, I will give one to the children.\u201d He did die and Bowron sold lot to a stranger for £10 and the children are scattered and living on charity.His wife died before him.About 1822 Jas.Struth- ers being

\u2018 ESTED Opinions of Others COMPLETED SHIPS, NOT HULLS, COUNT Editorially the Financial Post, Toronto, said in its last issue, while lack of ships still remains a major bottleneck to the speedy conclusion of this bloody and expensive war a dozen unfinished hulls are tied up at the Toronto Shipbuilding Co.Some of these have been lying there for over a year and there is little prospect of getting them finished and in service before next spring.Canadian Shipping and Marine Engineering News charges that the 4,000 workmen on the payrolls of the Toronto Company are contributing fewer finished ships than a quarter of the number of workers at either the Collingwood or Midland yards.This ts a most serious charge.It comes from a reliable authority and it should be probed and corrected without delay.In an editorial in the current issue, Canadian Shipping states: \u201cThe sensible solution and one which any experienced shipbuilder would advocate, would be to immediately stop the construction of any more hulls, concentrate a total cf about 1,000 employees, including a reduced office staff, on the fitting out of not more than three of the vessels to get them commissioned for service before the freeze-up.\u201cThree finished ships will be of more use in the war effort than 12 vessels 90 per cent finished and frozen up till next spring.\u201cBy such an arrangement.over 3000 workmen could and should be transferred to yards where they are badly needed, with also the saving of many hundreds of tons of steel.\u201d Launching marks only a preliminary stage in the building of a ship.The real yardstick is the number of vessels fitted out and ready for szer- vice.Breaking a bottle of champagne across the nose of some steel hull sliding into the water does not mean very much unless that hull is speedily completed and put into service.In that respect the record at the Toronto yard, according to our contemporary, has been unimpressive.- Collingwood Enterprise

commons when it makes its report to parliament in the coming season.Experts appearing before the com- mittee\u2014Dr.W.H.Cook of the National Research Daboratory, and Professor W.D.McFarlane, department of chemistry, Macdonald Col- Icge\u2014spoke of the need of research to get the fullest and most effective development out of the great agricultural industry of Canada.Straw has been used to make tine grades of paper in Scotland.Experiments have been carried on in the United States in the use of straw in briquets as fuel.Straw has been treated in Britain to make it digestible as feed.These were mentioned as examples of what can be done from agricultural waste products.The suggestion was advanced in the committee that a \u201cpilot\u201d plant should be erected for the manufacture of wheat and decayed potatoes from the farms into alcohol for motor fuel purposes.The possibility of making alcohol from grain as a stage in the manufacture of synthetic rubber has been discussed ar sume length in the past session of parliament.Grain alcohol if mixed Dj up to ten per cent with gasoline improves the octane content of the gas.In the Philippines it was pointed out alcohol without gas was used for driving motor vehicles.The important question is that of cost of manufacture.The cost of conversion, that is the actual outlay for manufacture including labour, fuel, capital cost of plant, etc.would run about 13 or 14 cents a gallon but might reach 20 cents.The important item of cost is the raw material.Two imperial gallons of alcohol can be made out of one bushel of wheat.\u2018If wheat was at sixty cents a bushel, the cost of an imperial galion would therefore be 30 cents, plus the 13 cents or bout 43 cents.At (Continued on page 8) Leduc & Prieur LTEE

sumptuous climax to the old-time Christmas dinner.Several weeks beforehand the ritual of making the Christmas pudding was begun: raisins were stoned and the family each took a turn at stirring the pudding for luck.After hours and hours of boiling the puddings, for there were usually several, were put in the cellar to age.The ritual is simpler now that Christmas puddings have put on wartime dress.There are no raisins to stone this year, for those on the market are the seedless variety; being less rich the puddings don't require aging.Yet, in spite of their simplified form, the 1943 pudding will still provide a fitting climax to the 1943 Christmas dinner.From the Consumer Section of the Dominion Department of Agriculture come these recipes for Wartime Christmas fare, Steamed

Ways of the caribou.It takes an Indian to do that and even the redman, skilled though he is in woodcraft, sometimes admits that the ways of the caribou are beyond his understanding.The caribou differs from the European reindeer in size, coloring and habits, A Canadian buck\u2014such as those found in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia\u2014will exceed 400 pounds in weight and measure more than four feet at the shoulders.The Canadian caribou has never been domesticated.Nor is it likely that it ever will be.It is one of the champion wanderers among our wildlife, It is virtually impossible to follow the caribou trail unless you know the exact places where it feeds.It is very particular about its diet.The caribou lives mostly on lichen and a parasitic lichen that grows on the bark of trees.The moose will find its food anywhere in the forest.It will move slowly step by step, eating as it travels\u2014or remain in one spot for wecks at a time.Not so with the caribou! The caribou is continually on the move seeking new pastures.Besides that, it will unexpectedly migrate to another region entirely without rhyme or reason for its movements.Generally, the Canadian caribou is brownish-hued on the legs and shoulders, light gray elsewhere, This is a combination that bleds perfectly with.its natural haunts, whether in Newfoundland, Cape Breton or any other part of the Maritime Provinces.Canadian officialdom has not forgotten this most elusive of its animals.The caribou, a splendid specimen of the northwoods, has been portrayed on several of the postage stamps issued by our Dominion in recent years.That is one way of giving government recognition to our four-legged friends.etéttééttétéss té étés + * * WEDDING * Coulter\u2014Black The marriage of Sergeant

stout and a drop of rum to blend the flavorings, is now maturing in Canadian National Railways pantries in readiness for the holiday season.When the \u201czero\u201d day comes next month, Christmas pudding will appear on the menu of System dining cars and station restaurants from coast to coast.The preparation of Christmas pudding by Canadian National chefs is an annual event observed with complete respect for tradition and the faithful observance of an old English recipe.Despite wartime difficulties, all the necessary ingredients were obtained and will be included in the coming issue.Hitherto, the kitchen of a railway dining car has been the scene of the mixing and cooking, but the 1943 edition was prepared in the restaurant facilities at the new Central Station in Montreal The \u201cmixing\u201d had a martial atmosphere owing to the presence of Blend Christmas Pudding military cooks desirous of gaining a hint or two concerning pudding in wholesale quantities, information later useful in army kitchens for the forthcoming issue of \u201cPudding, plum, all ranks, for the use of\u201d.More than three tons of pudding, well over 6,000 pounds, were mixed, steamed and stored in readiness for the holiday season, an amount sufficient for more than 36,000 servings.Domestic tradition requires Christmas pudding to be boiled in a cloth, but railway chefs steam the mixture and for transportation convenience place the product in tins, 5.000 such containers being required this year.In the photograph, Chef Instructor James Morgan, of the National Railways, 1s shown mixing ingredients to the admiration of L/C Jeannine Prevost, left, and L/C Isabelle Langlois, right.The lance corporals are experts in their own right, their dally task being to cook for 250 CWAC

husiness and pleasure combined.First stop was a banquet given by the Holstein Club of St.Jean, at the Boulevard Hotel, La- nrairie.A bang-up inspirational event.Organizer of same being Gerard Sanfacon, Agronome de District, and Secretary of the Club, who by the way, received his appointment to the service while working on our farm back in the 30's\u2014 deep in the depression.There was no evidence of depression among the three hundred banquet guests.And a wide country was represented with Morris Houle and Hon.Antoine Flie from Nicolet, pro- \u201cessors from Oka, Hermas Lajoie, Mr.and Mrs.Hodge, Montreal, several from St.Remi.All proceedings were conducted in French.About fifteen prizes were drawn, as well as several presented for merit in the incal production contests.In the

we covered a lot of ground.Por instance on the \u201cPrices and Planning\u201d programme Nov.16th with Mr.McPherson chairman, Prof.Lattimer, P.D.McArthur and Miss Perron, outline of discussion was made ahead of time and this group then met on Saturday afternoon, Nov.13 and worked until 8 P.M.with Orville Schugg of C.B.C.as adviser in preparation of a full script.Then they worked all day Sunday trom 9 until 6.After the script was completed there were two rehearsals in the studio for the purpose of timing.The programme went on the air at 8.30 that evening.A realization of the sincere effort and down-right gruelling work required for even a half-hour discussion group performance of this nature should promote closer attention and greater co-operation by listening groups.Incidentally on Nov, 29 I attended a meeting of a organization of writers, artists, radio and screen publicists and heard that many listening groups are heing formed from 9 to 6 and again on Monday , DAHLIA\u2019S

naturally rather more interested In Ireland than in some other parts of the world it occurred to me that, more than King Willlam on his white horse, or Robert Emmett, or Charles Stuart Parnell (I like to blame the woman in his decline and fall), or Famon de Valera does Ireland need a Jan Smuts, If not in the respective times of all those heroes, then, at least, in this year of grace nineteen

approach to questions, recognizes the word Socialism has different current meanings and it is sometimes used for things which she condemns and sometimes for things which she sanctions, However, this does not imply that one use is as correct as anotiler, The Church when using the word Socialism herself reserves it for a doctrine or system which she has condemned, Socialism, in the sense in which the Catholic Church uses the term, means the denial of the right of private property, the assertion that all wealth, especially productive land and capital, belongs by right only to all the people collectively.e., the State or Government.Property for Liberty The Church defends the right of private property because this right ix essential to private liberty.The individual has nothing he can call his own if the State exclusively has the right to control the material things man needs for his life and happiness.Mussolini \u2018(himself a \u2018ormer leader of the Socialist Party) defined Socialism when he defined \u2018Totalitarianism: \u201cEverything for the State, everything by the State, nothing outside the State.\u201d Right is more than fact and property is more than possession.If the State denies me my right to property but promises me the use of more wealth, of more money to spend.I am not reconciled to this condition of abject dependence.If the individual has no right to anything he cannot be robbed of anything.The State can do no wrong.Such is the logic of Socialism which denies the right of private property.It is a logic against which we feel our human personality rise in protest and the Church, which has been the defender of human rights throughout the ages, voices our protest and makes it her own.Athelstan Ordinary Seaman M.N.James G.Hutchings of

Hundreds of Naked Jews Are Killed in Kiev Massacres An eye-witness acount of Jewisn massacres in Kiev during the early cays of its occupation by German rroops has been given the newspaper Izvestia by Dmitri Grlov, a 1esident of Kiev, who said he saw hundreds of men and women stripped naked and then shot at the edge of a gully into which their bodies dropped in a great pile.In the account, distributed by Tass news agency, Grlov said: \u201cSeveral days after the Germans entered Kiev I went to Lvovskaya street.An incessant procession of people was streaming through it and both sidewalks were lined with German patrols.This human stream kept flowing for three days and three nights without interruption.\u201cThe Germans were driving the Jews to Babyl Yar gully beyond the city.I also stealthily made my way to that place.I was able to stand the sight of what I saw here only for 10 minutes and after that everything went black before my eyes.Ski-Mounted Police On Mount Royal Mount Royal is a very popular spot with skiters in Montreal during winter months, and it is estimated that since the Laurentians have become somewhat difficult of access | for week-ends, the average Sunday crowds on and around Mount Royal are in the vicinity of fifteen thousand.In view of the possible dangers that might arise from the massing together of such a large crowd, and wishing to prevent accidents, Montreal police authorities have decided to establish a police station on Mount Royal itself, and to station eight officers there, to superintend the movement of skilers, maintain order and at the same time educate the public as to the necessity of care, ete.Mr.and Mrs.Kenneth Crutchfield and son Billy, also Mr.Jackson, of group present.amounted to $245.home of Mr.and Mrs.J.T.Gamble.The Athelstan Branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society acknow- Debert, NS., visited recently at the |:edges with thanks the following These policemen will be on skiis, and will carry first-ald kits with them.They will have as their mission the patrol of Mount Royal, the donation: Mrs.E, A.McHardy $10.protection of the public, prevention cf accidents and, whenever accidents \u2014 | \u201cThe Germans forced people to undress and then methodically gathered their clothes and loaded them on trucks.In separate trucks off from naked people\u2014there were ged them up shivering from cold or nwortal terror to the edge of the gully ! permit of ronds was first undertaken by the Province for the total length of ronds maintained then was but 128 miles.During the Jast fifteen years, winter maintenance has become a necessity and, no matter how jong may be our winters, or how severe, circuits maintained by the Roads Department are rarely closed to traffic, except possibly for a few hours after blizzards, That the carrying out of this work necessitates an elaborate system of machinery and a well- trained personnel goes without saying, and automobilists should take these things into consideration when uncontrollable circumstances do not winter circuits being maintained as perfectly as could be desired, A shortage of man-power and the difficulty of repairing machinery are factors additional to heavy snowfalls, which go to com- being among the scholarship winners.Braves Win At Lachine Valleyfield Team Winners in Intermediate Loop Valleyfield Braves continued their winning streak on Sunday after- oon nl the Lachine Arena, playing before a crowd of over 1,800 people, when they nosed out the local La- chine team, 4-3, in a closely mateh- ed contest.In the second tilt of the afternoon, Caughnawaga Indians suffered their third consecutive defeat at the hands of District Depot, when they were trounced 9-3.Valleyfield, led by Whitehead who scored two gonls and assisted in another, scored one goal in the first period and one in the second, to stay on even terms with Lachine, but a final splurge in the third stanza proved to be the winner.Bernie Legault was the hero of the day when he rammed in five of the roldiers\u2019 goals, with Benison of Caughnawaga scoring two of his team's three.Valeyfield Braves will meet the Cyclone team on Sunday.TURKEY IN WAR IN THREE MONTHS?was that the three Ankara.The impression growing in informed circles Turkey will enter the war on side of the Allles within months, Foreign Minister Menemencioglu'\u2019s conferences with PForelgn Secretary they put underwear.Then they tore of C Anthony Eden at Cairo last week were belleved to have lald the groundwork for Turkey's entry\u2019 LAIN Chills .plicate the problem of winter maintenance in the Province, YY Cramps -

to Canada with sharply\u2019 changed attitudes.This attitude plus | the political revamping which is, cvercoming the countryside will lead , to many a strange path.One can see : the change in political opinion, for : what else, but that, is supporting the growth of the C.C.F.party.The very ideals which we are fighting against seem to be taking root.The battle cry is \u201cIndividualism,\u201d the political cry \u201cNationalization\u2019, in meaning, they are directly opposite one an- cther.Still further, there are other\u2019 ,lrices.Multitudes of women have left their tasks, as mothers of families, and entered war plants.The (unattended children have not im- | proved or benefitted by this lack of | '| motherly care.In fact, recent in- | {formation originating from the Juvenile Courts, shows that there has been a serious increase in crimes committed by young children.Likewise one cannot but feel .at many of these mothers will not care to go back to the routine of housekeeping, after experiencing the environment of some other type of work.The backbone of a nation is the education which its newborn receive, and this responsibility falls in great part, \u2018upon the mother.Educationalists {have time and time again pointed lout that although school has an important effect upon the child, its attitude and outlook is already decid- \u2018ed, as a result of its home life.Altogether this represents the price which has been paid and will be paid fur the survival of Democracy, concurrent with which one cannot help |but note that

which has to be kept up.the clarification of the bacon export position and the labour and farm equipment situation, Post War Planning From the Prime Minister, other cabinet members and the reconstruction committee come evidence of the common determination that when the end of the war comes whenever that may be, the process cf change to peacetime conditions will be at least started and that the dislocation will not be too drastic.Nothing is to be done that will in any way interfere with the effectiveness of the prosecution of the war now coming to a critical stage.A company called War Assets Corporation Limited is being set up to dispose of obsolete or surplus products, While war industry is now at its peak of production and of employment and there is at present urgent need of 65,000 men and 16,- 000 women In high category industries, changes in the needs of the armed forces for weapons, munitions and equipment are putting some assets in the unnecessary class.Disposal of these assets is not yet an acute question but it has been found essential to create an agency to handle this job when it does become acute.Manufacture ot Washing Machines It was recently decided to ease up a little on war industry's monopoly of aluminum scrap and of certain categories of steel.On of the results of this will be the return to the making of washing machines, although this is coupled with the warning that the extent of the manufacture will for a time at least be slow.There is the prospect of the opportunity being later granted for the making of other household appliances.Synthetic Rubber in Peace Time It is confidently believed that the synthetic plant at Sarnia will be able to turn out satisfactory tires for peacetime cars and trucks.The whole problem of the transition of many war plants to peacetime industry when the time comes is under constant study.Railways Handle Big Rush of Feed Grain The production of grains in the Eastern Provinces this year has been far below that of the previous year mainly due to adverse weather conditions experienced last spring.This situation has made it necessary to transport miilions of bushels of feed grain from the Western Provinces to maintain live stock production, according to reports received by the agricultural department of the Canadian National Railways.The Agricultural Supplies Board points out that it will be necessary home grown crop will ensure seed for next year's planting and assist the railways meet the abnormal demand for feed grain for live stock in Eastern Canada.«PEACE LEAFLETS\u201d

Board in the fight to ensure proper food supplies must have your co-operation.This Branch developed because you, the housewife, accepted the responsibility of guarding the price ceiling.The branch is an intermediary between the women of Canada and the Wartime Prices and Trade Board.This Board divided Canada into 13 | restons and in each of these there is a Women's Regional Advisory Committee, elected by women such as you and representing your organizations, Each committee organizes its whole region.Sub-com- mittees may be formed and local groups are urged to appoint liaison officers.There are now 13,000 representatives across Canada, through which you, as a consumer, may be in contact with the Wartime Prices and Trade Board.The liaison officers gather criticisms, suggestions and complaints from their own local groups and direct these through the women's regional board offices for consideration.They also must keep you informed about the meaning and need for price control, newest rulings and regulations and establish a local community tie-up betweer= it and consumers branch, If you wish to report a change in prices, quality or quantity of articles, the liaison officer is the person you approach with your information.If your women\u2019s group or organization has not yet appointed a liaison of- ficer\u2014see that they do so at the next meeting.This is your chance to aid in the framing of wartime controls which affect your well-being.A little leaflet entitled Consumer News is published by the Consumers Branch and distributed to the linison officers as an aid in their work of informing their women\u2019s groups.This pamphlet outlines the latest regulations and explains details of price control.Price control has brought the problems of good marketing and careful buying into jour daily conversations.You should now be demanding more specific information as to the processing, grading and labelling of the foods.With a limited food market you must know what is essential to health and the well being of your family in order to buy wisely.The consumer of the future will be a more intelligent shopper and a better housewife, In reply to your constant questions the Consumer Branch has published these answers.Question: Why do I have to pay different prices in different stores in the same community?Answer: The prices are based on services rendered and magnitude of operations; e.g.a small grocery store with a delivery of goods will have to charge more for a product than a chain store of a large firm, on a cash-and-carry basis.\u2019 Question: Why are many of the brand names disappearing from grocers\u2019 shelves?Answer: This disappearance of brand names is due largely to the exhaustion of the supply of canned goods.When the new pack reaches the shelves thnse goods will again he available.It is natural for the low- er-priced lines to be sold out first; as a result the manufacturer may have only higher-priced articles until the new pack comes in, If there are still any questions as to the why and wherefore of the Consumer Branch do look up the Haison officer in your community.PREPARES FOR PEACE Toronto.\u2014Earl T.Lawson, chairman of the post-war reconstruction the society has projected a program division, Canadian Red Cross, said of peacetime activities on a national and international scale, Japan Ready To Sacrifice 10,000,000 The war can only be brought to a successful conclusion \u201cwith the merciless destruction of all forces of evil both in Ewfope and in the Orient\u201d, Ralph W.Carney, prominent American businessman; told an Ottawa audience recently.The United Natlofis, he sald, have stopped losing the war so \u201cthat now greater effort is needed for victory and the struggle is to keep the home front from sitting down.Wars are won by those countries whose people have the ability to withstand and endure hardships,\u201d he reminded his listeners.Mr.Carney, vice-president and general sales manager of the Coleman Lamp and Stove Company, Wichita, Kan.spoke at a joint meeting of the Rotary Club and the Canadian Club in the interests of the Victory Loan.He warned that Japan, which has an army of 5,000,000 men and another 8,000,000 in reserve, would not be easily defeated as she is prepared to sacrifice 19,000,000 men.\u201cWe must endure eight years of war in the Pacific.Every responsible military man has warned us not to be hopeful for a short war in Lhat particular theatre.\u201d The darkest days for the Allies will come \u201cwhen Adolf Hitler is hanged, because each day that there is an attack on Japan it will be another Dieppe or Salerno,\u201d The bravery of the fighting men of the United Nations, supplied with the best of equipment, will not win the war unless financial support is forthcoming from those people at home, \u201cLet me tell you that if any labor leader calls men off work who are making guns, any businessman that fails lend his dollars and his time, any man or woman that fails in any degree whatsoever, sells out his country just as surely as Judas took 30 pieces of silver,\u201d he sald in conclusion, Rotarian Henry Bankhead, of the American Consulate staff, thanked the speaker.Previous to the meeting, a short memorial service was conducted by Rev.Charles Donald.A minute's silence was also observed for Rotar- jan Arthur Wickware, who died last week.FLYER ADDS ANOTHER RAT IN BERLIN London.\u2014It probably was a dirty trick on the rat, but a Halifax bomber dropped one on Berlin in a recent record raid.The crew discovered the

Berlin.\u201d - A Belated Tribute What a different world this would be if there were no cattle in it.Although cattle were probably the first domesticated mammals\u2014archaeoio- gists having found evidence of their evistence as early as the Stone Age; although most or our Western migration was made possible by the use of oxen for hauling heavy loads in the cumbersome Conestoga wagons.while the cows trailed behind to supply milk for those daring pioneers; although our dairy business, also our packing business are billlon dollar industries, cattle have never been as highly regarded as other domestic animals, Senator George G.Vest's culogy, A Tribute to a Dog\u201d and Anna Sewell's book, \u201cBlack Beauty\u201d are both literary masterpieces, but none has written a classic about that worthy animal\u2014the cow.The ordinary man in his daily activities dons his clothing which he fastens with bone buttons, pulls on his calfskin shoes and brushes his hair with a brush having a horn handle.He pours cream into his coffee and upon his cereal which he enjoys together with his buttered toast.He considers his billfold and other leather articles indispensable.If he becomes sick, the doctor may give him insulin or pepsin and if the baby does not thrive the doctor sometimes recommends a certain type of cow\u2019s milk.He advises more milk for the other children whose teeth are beginning to decay for lack of calcium.In fact, cows have become an essential part of man's life and the welfare of his family.Who could write a cook book without the aid of those whom some have called dumb beasts?Here are a lew general types of food in the prepars ation of which they should receive considerable credit: Meats, soups, gravies, creamed foods, prepared vegetables and salads, biscuits, cheese, fruits, cereals, puddings, cakes, candies and beverages.If we eliminate all the foods and drinks in which beef or milk, butter, cheese, and other dairy products are used, our standard of living would drop to a low level.Eddie Barryessa, a Calfornia dairyman, Installed a radio in his dalry barn, He says the cows give more milk under the influence of soft, soothing music.All dairymen will not follow Eddie's example, but, certainly, our bovine benefactors are, at least, entitled to kind and considerate treatement for the priceless contribution which they have made to make life more pleasant and comfortable for humanity.MILAN CARDINAL AGAIN DENOUNCES HUNS Berne, Switzerland.\u2014 Ildefonso Cardinal Schuster, Archbishop of Milan, bitterly denounced German occupation

is always a market for good seed of coarse grains, the probability is there may be a shortage in the spring of 1944.It is expedient that every farmer should protect his 1944 crop by making sure of his seed requirements before potential seed supplies have been sold on the commercial market.FEI) LEE FURNITURE IS THE ANSWER TO THE EVER PUZZLING GIFT QUESTION Here are a few hints for Yule Shoppers who

Resumed Release for civilian purposes of steel, which since 1940 has been used almost exclusively for war production, will be made shortly it was learned through the Munitions Department and the Prices Board.When available in all its forms for other than war production, the steel released for civilian uses will permit the fabrication of a wide variety of articles which have been off the market the past three years.For Farm Equipment Release already has been given by the Munitions Department of a considerable quantity of structural steei and plate for civilian use.This will go into the fabrication of nails, building rods, wire for fences, the manufacture of farm equipment and building material, all in short supply since 1840, The Prices Board is preparing a list of commodities in shortest supply which will be given the top priority on the steel freed for civil- fan use.And it was likely, said Munitions officials that sheet steel, used in the fabrication of innumerable articles for homes, will be made available for civilian manufacture.This will permit resumption in the manufacture of a wide variety of domestic equipment, including kitchen utensils, pots and pans, building hardware, baby carriages, play pens, cabinets, and steel equipment for business offices.Sheet steel facilities still are engaged pretty well exclusively in war producion, but the changing munitions and supply program over the coming months is expected to permit the release of increasing quantities for civilian manufacturing.HISTORIC ARMISTICE COACH DESTROYED Berne\u2014Swiss newspapers

Builders of a New World Behind the battle for the Peripet Marshes, for the hills of Italy and in the jungles of the Pacific, there is being waged that daily underlying struggle for our democratic way of life.A victory of arms without the restoration of true Democracy would be a hollow sham\u2014the sacrifice of the thousands of lives, a fnockery.This fight is going on in Canada today.For there are some who suggest that we introduce into the country ideas alien to our traditions and heritage.In Europe, too, this same battle is being fought.Conquered or not, for many, the greatest ignominy is not loss of life or loved ones, but the loss of those principles of true freedom, which they know to be the real underlying issues of the war.For the victory and complete restoration of these ideas men in the occupled countries are facing firing squads and concentration camps.Such a one, Fredrik Ramm, was reported to have died last week on the way back to his native Norway from a Germany concentration camp.An outstanding journalist and leader of the Oxford Group in Norway, Ramm was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Nazis in 1941.He achieved early fame when he gave the world a first-hand account of Amundsem\u2019s historic flight over the North Pole.On one occasion, at the height of increasing enmity between Norway and Denmark, Ramm asked permission to write a guest editorial in the leading Danish pa- ed PRICELESS -0 0e @pe > +.RECIRES\\ BCT @ must pass the light, choose RAOC- MAAF per.To the surprise of everyone he took the opportunity to make 8 public apology for his bitter attituda over a fisheries dispute between the two countries, which had been decided in favour of Denmark.This was one of his many actions which has earned him warm comment in che of the most recent publications of the Norwegian Government's Information Service.Norway's Foreign Minister in London said, \u201cWhen the truth is told, Ramm will go down in history as one of Norway's greatest heroes.He refused to abandon any of his principles after the German occupation.\u201d Men like Ramm have kept alive along the fjords and in the farm valleys of Norway the spirit that will free the nation.Under the heel of the Gestapo they are building a new people more united than ever before, Norway's unity 1s the answer to the partisan struggles in the Balkans and elsewhere.-» HOW TO COMBAT
