QUE., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6th, 1946 Honor\u2019s a good brooch to wear in a man\u2019s hat at all times.EIGHT PAGES S.J.Currie Host to Electrical Contractors at Chateau Much Information Gained on Supplies and Future of Electricity An event of interest to electricians of the district and one which may have its effect upon the consumer elements of the Counties of Beauharnois, Chateaugua y and Huntingdon, was held at The Hunt- ingdon Chateau, on Thursday afternoon and evening.Mr, S.J.Curtie, who has recently taken over the Northern Blectric Company franchise of dealership for the above named counties, was host to the electrical contractors of these counties, There are 40 contractors in this area and thirty of them were present a the meeting and banquet held for their benefit.Also present were Mr.D, C, McKellar, District Sales Manager for Northern Electric; Mr.Alex.Dougherty, Wiring Material Sales Specialist for Northern Electric; Mr, Chas, Ball, Wire and Cable Specialist for Northern Electric; Mr, Harold Nelson, District Merchandizing Manager for Northern Electric; Messrs, A.L.Sellar, S.Smith and E G.Cogland, of the Huntingdon Gilean- er; Mr.J.Bouchard, District Manager for the Shawinigan Water and Power Company, also J.A, Gosselin, Valleyfield and H, Provost Huntingdon.The latter being specially invited guests for the occasion, The idea of the meeting was for the purpose of getting better acquainted and with a view to forming an association of the local contractors for the betterment of working conditions and supplies of materials, The meeting opened at the Chateau at about 4 p.m.with an address by Mr.D.C, McKellar, who outlined some of the difficulties facing the electrical industry.The speaker stated that the future for electricity is very bright, but obtaining supplies was very difficut.The Northern Electric Company was facing difficulties in manufacture of supplies that was far worse than during the war.One of the difficulties was the price of cotton used in manufacturing cables, etc.The recent strikes had also had their upsetting moments and had retarded rhe manufacture of electrical appliances.Once supplies can be obtained in anything near normal quantities, there was much work that could be done and that would keep the industry busy for the next five years at least.Mr, Dougherty, the next speaker, told his audience that the Power Companies had huge quantities of power available for use and it must be used vp.Now that the pressure for war use had eased, there was a vast quantity for release to the general public and manufacturing concerns.The power companies were in the business to supply power and the Northern Electric and Mr.Currie together with the contractors were in the business to sell supplies and to bring the power to the consumer, His company had huge quantities of materials on order and these were being manufactured as fast as possible.More electrical] equipment was required now than had ever been required or sold before.With the price celi- ings in effect his company was losing money on many of the lines produced and he felt that there was a need of some price adjustment ere long.Government control would have to come off before very long in order to ease the burden or the manufacturer.The rural districts will provide the best market for some time to come as many farmers are waiting for wiring for clectrical appliances us on the farm and in their homes.There is a great pressure being brought to bear for the electrification of rural homes and all power and hydro companies were working toward this end.Contractors should therefore plan with this in mind and be ready to submit prices on this class of work, Mr.Chas, Ball, Wire and Cable Specialist introduced his remarks hy showing various types of cables and wiring manufactured by the æ : Northern Electric Company, He said that electricity had only been scratched until the war came along.With the manv new advancements.the future of electricity ils quite bright.The proper thing to do is to give everyone electricity because cveryone wants it.The governments of the various provinces are seeking to have electric power brought to all residents of their respective provinces and they were putting through enalling legislature with a view to bringing this about.This trend was putting terrific pressure on the power companies and the manufacturers and all efforts were being made to make these things possible.The shortage in supplies for manufacturing purposes was reflected in the shortage in supplies of certain types of wiring and cables.One of the principal reasons for the shortage was cotton.Different types of (Continued on page 5) Echoes of 1895 Sound as Man Released on Ticket-of-Leave Convicted of Murder\u2014Sentence Commuted to Life Imprisonment-\u2014Free After 42 Years Echoes of the past came to light quite recently when Francis Valentine Shortis was released from prison on ticket-of-leave, after be- \"ing confined to prison for 42 years.Perhaps to some, the name will bring back memories of a startling crime which occurred in the office of The Montreal Cottons Limited, Valley- field, Que, on Friday evening, March 1, 1895.It was one of the worst crimes which ever took place in the District of Beauharnois and was probably the cause of the fall of.the Federal Government of that day.It might be said that when this man was brought to trial, the case was a sensation throughout the Dominion.Kills Two, Wounds One Shortis was a former private secretary to Louis Simpson, manager of The Montreal Cottons Limited.Valleyfield, when the crime was committed, so he therefore was very well acquainted with the office and its routine.On the evening of March 1, 1895, he knocked on the door of the counting house of the Montreal Cottons Limited, and he was admitted, as he was so well known.He chatted with John Lowe, the cashier, and John Loy and Hughie Wilson, olerks, who were making up the Day envelopes to contain about $14,000 cash.Ideas must have been forming in the mind of Shortis aseto how he could obtain the cash on hand, for during his conversation he was deeply interested in the revolver that Lowe had in his drawer.During the course of the conversation, Lowe had occasion to go into the vault several times, while Lowe was in the vault on one of these trips, Shortis took the opportunity to remove the gun from the drawer in which it was kept.Watching his opportunity, he wheeled around and shot Hugh Wilson, wounding him, Lowe and Arthur Leboeuf, a night watchman, rushed into the vault with as much money as had not been put away, and locked themselves in.Shortis also pointed the revolver at John Loy and fired, killing him, Hearing the approach of amother night watchman, Maxime Leboeuf, Shortis also shot and killed him, Finding that Wilson had not been killed, as he supposed, Shortls shot him again.Wilson recovered, and died only a few years ago.° Gives Himself Up Shortis broke the telephone connections and much damage was done to the vffice, and the door between the main office and the managers office was smashed, Hours crept by and Shortis kept his wigil over the two dead bodies, waiting for Lowe and Leboeuf to come out of the vault.In some way during this time, Hughie Wilson managed to call for help and gave the alarm.Before two men came to the side door and ordered Shortls to sur- rerkler, they were Napoleon Delisle and Dr.Sutherland, Shortie finally gaye himself up to these two men.~ Early Gleaner Garries Story The Gleaner of March 7th, 1895, contains a full account of this case and the trial which followed on October 2nd, 1895, at Beauharnois.The whole affair was fudy, covered and column after column was devoted to the particulars associated with the crime.It was the sensation of that time and the release of this man from prison recently, causes The Gleaner tcday to review some of the details as being still of interest, to its readers.Accused Lodged in Goal On Saturday morning, March 2nd, 1895, Dr.Demers, of Ste, Martine, joint coroner for the district, arrived and the following jury was empaneled: Jas.Wattie, Foreman; D.D, McBain, John Lowe.Sr.Louis Farent, Adam McVicker, J.A.Trottier.Jas.A, Robb, Treffle Demers, John Crichton, Sr, Zo- tigue Proulx, Etienne Bovin, Jos.Lalonde, Auguste Lesperance, Noe Leger.Chas, Pare, Phil.Sevigny, and Marcisse Langevin, R.S.Joron acted as ccroner's clerk.The verdict returned was \u201cThat between 11 o'clock Friday night, March 1st and 2 o'clock Saturday morning, in the office of Montreal Cottons Company, Valleyfield, John Loy was murdered by Francis Cuthbert Valentine Shortis, that from the evidence submitted, this Jury has reason to \u2018believe that Maxime Leboeuf was also murdered by the said Shortis, and that Shortis also attempted to murder John Lowe and Hugh Wilson.his object being to rob the office of Montreal Cottons Company and that his action was premeditated.\u201d On receipt of the verdict the prisoner was lodged in jail, When ihe Jury was ready to retire, Shortis complained that he should have been allowed counsel and was told that he had had the opportunity of communicating with his friends and it was his own fault that a lawyer had not been called.Trial Lasts Twenty Days The trial of Shortis openéd at Beauharnois.on October 2nd, 1895, before Judge Mathieu and lasted for twenty days.Shortis' parents were present at the trial having come from Ireland.the birth place of the accused, There were also many other witnesses from Ireland present at the trial, as well as others from Valleyfield and Montreal.A Commission was issued for the purpose of examining witnesses in Ireland with the intent to prove Shortis insane.Chief witnesses for the defence Included Shortis parents, member of the clergy, people with whom he had boarded, and lastly, medical doctors, Dr.Anglin of Verdun Insane Hospital, stated the accused was absolutely insane, and that the insanity was of hereditary type, and also that he was consumptive.Dr.Clarke of Rockwood Asylum, visited Shortis and came to the conclusion that Shortis was what

upon to wait upon the Provincial Government in behalf of the Hospital.Mr.Lallemand in turn took the matter up with Provincial Ministers, and with apparent success, for it has been learned that a special grant of $2,000 is being included in the budget for the special benefit of The Hun- tingdon County Hospitas.The Huntingdon County Hospital, and the public at large, are indeed grateful to Mr.Lallemand for the interest he has exemplified in behalf of the Hospital and to the Provincial Department of Health and Hygiene, headed by the Hon.Dr.Paquette, who have séen fit to accord the special grant of $2,000.Amateur Night :| At St.Joseph's Great Success Many Prizes Awarded Contestants The amateur night sponsored iby the League of the Sacred (Heart of St.Joseph's parish, on Thursday, was a decided success.Father Pigeon presided.Mr.Victorien Maher, from Valleyfield, was master of ceremony.This gentleman is well-known all over the district for his talent in organizing this form of entertainment and is very much appreciate.All the contestants received much applause for their good performance, so everyone received a cash prize at the end of the concert.Mr, Maher himself gave a solo in French and English, accompanying himself on his accordion, He also accompanied singers on the piano in the absence of the regular pianist, Miss Demers.The net profits of the evening

boys.Roy Holmes and Edward Donnelly.who happened to be passing at the time, a serious fire was averted on Sunday afternoon.These two boys.who act as ushers at the O'Connor Theatre.had just left the show and were passing along Chateauguay St., when they noticed smoke coming from the Menard Grocery Store.They immediately turned in the alarm which brought the Hunting- don Volunteer Fire Brigade quickly to the scene.Meanwhile, others had gathered.and were trying to quell the fire with pails of water but were not making muclf headway.On the arrival of the firemen the small type hose was hooked up and a spray played upon the fire, which was smouldering under the counter and broke into flame when the store door was opened.The store was filled with smoke and it was getting into the walls and pouring out of the building, but with the hose and some chemical it was not long before it was extinguished.The fire must have been smouldering for some time before the boys came along and it evidently started in the merchandise that was stored under the large counter.Apparently 4t spread from this to the nearby shelves and caught some matches that were stored there.The whole of the stock under the counter and the counter were a complete loss and most of the stock in the store was damaged by smoke and water.It is estimated that there was about $3.500 worth of stock in the store and that the loss will go into the thouands of dollars, but it is not known if it will be a total loss.This stock is only partially covered by insurance.Mr.Menard, owner of the store, had left town at six o'clock on Saturday evening and was not home at the time of the fire, about five o'clock on Sunday afternoon.Except for the promptness of all concerned, this could have been a very bad fire.The store will be closed until such time as adjustments have been effected and repairs made to the inside of the bulding.The cause of the fire is not known.BUTTER ATOMS SASKATOON -(CP)- Dr, Spinks of the University of Saskatchewan had been dilating at length about splitting the atom and the fissions emanating gherefrom, .splitting up a pound of butter into 3,000,000 pieces.\u2014 Others to Follow News of great importance was made public at the council meeting on Monday evening when a permit was asked for to erect eight of the new Faircraft Homes on Churchill and Roosevelt Streets, the new streets in that part of Huntingdon known at the McCormick Field.Several interested parties have banded themselves together for the purpose of buying a number of the Fair- craft Homes and putting them on lots in this part of town with the idea of helping to relieve the acute housing shortage.Mr.A.Fawcett, who is acquainted with this new move, explained to the council that several of the houses being brought here had been sold to ex-servicemen and the balance would be quickly disposed of once they have been seen.These houses are shipped to Huntingdon by truck and they can be set up ready to be occupied in two days after arrival.He said it was the intention to start digging the bade- ments and making the foundations for these houses on Tuesday morning and to have the new houses arrive here as soon as possible.He also announced that it was his opinion that.there would be approximately fifty houses erected on this new site before the summer Is over.There are several people who are expecting to build the ordinary type of house on this site and it is in- McCormick Field Site Soon To Be Filled With New Homes Eight Faircraft Homes to be Erected Immediately tended to bring in more of the Fair- craft Homes as quickly as they can be disposed of.There are many people waiting for houses and no doubt there will be a number of enquiries for these new homes once they have been seen and erected here.Everything is complete and they only require to be set up, the plumbing connected and the electric power connected to the source of supply.They are complete in every way, even to the linoleum on the floor.Mr.Fawcett says they are most convenient for the housewife as everything is so accessible and handy.With building supplies so scarce, he believes that these homes are the answer to the present shortage and will save many a headache in obtaining the mater- inls necessary to building the ordinary type of house.This start at development of this new site will mean much to the future prosperity of Huntingdon as well as providing the accommodation that is so badly nceded.Water and sewerage will be required on these new streets and this is one thing the council is going to look into so that no undue delay will come about to hold up this project.Both water and sewer are laid on the Prince Street Extension and water is laid on Roosevelt Street, but it will require both

School, Altona, New York, on Friday, March 1.Tne purpose of their visit was to examine a modern school at close range so that when the Howick project takes shape they will be in a position not only to incorporate some of the most essential modern features into their building, but also will have a working knowledge of the most durable and most economical bullding materials.The Altona Principal received the Howick delegates with typical American hospitality and spared no effort in point ng out some of the pitfalls to guard against in planning a new butld- ng.The Committees left Altona greatly impressed with their new Central School and considerably enlightened by their experience.Aubrey Gets Manufacture of Knives, Penholders to on Churchill Street.Memorial Tablet Some contributions toward the proposed Memorial Tablet for Hunt- ingdon High School have been received since publishing the report of this proposal in The Gleaner the past week.The first one to come in was from Mrs.Robert Sellar, a lifelong resident of Huntingdon, a former student and teacher at the Hunt- ingdon Academy, who wished the venture every success.Some others have also been received and it Is the intention to publish the names of all those who so contribute to this worthy cause.All contributions will be welcomed and it is hoped that as many of the school friends as possible will see their way clear to help in making the drive a success.There will be well over two hundred names to appear on the tablet and these are being compiled by the Student Council, of which Miss Ar- Some Contributions

is asked to check it over carefully and to acquaint Miss Grant of any errors or omissions that may occur.The officials in charge of this list are very anxlous to obtain all the names of those who should appear and while all care is being taken to compile the list, it is quite possible that some may be missed.Kindly watch for this list and if you find anything that is not correct, please get in touch with those concerned and give the corrections or omissions.It is hoped that in next week's issue a sketch of the proposed tablet will be printed so that a better idea of what is under consideration will be gained.Thirty ladies met at the home of Mrs.W.E.Logan, on Monday.March 4th, to hold the business meeting for that month of the Howick Branch of the Red Cross, and also to welcome

for four years.He will set up lathes and grinders at the above named property and exnects to start production in a very short time, Milk Subsidy Headache.The Governinent is wrestling with one of its thorniest \"decontrol\u201d pro- blems\u2014when to remove the two- cents-a-quart subsidy from milk, states The Financial Post, This subsidy cost the Government nearly $21 millions, apart from administrative costs last year, and to date, $65 millions.A tangled interplay of government controls has arisen.For one thing the Government is desperate to maintain butter and cheese production for home and export needs.On the other hand it sees milk consumptisn in Canada soaring to unprecedented heights.Why then, it is argued, not drop the subsidy?By doing so taxpayers would be saved at [east $2 millions à month.Milk consumption would be checked.Butter and cheese production might increase.And the Government would be rid of one of Its nastlest administrative headaches.The sticking point is this: a 2- cent rise in milk prices would boost, the cost-of-living index about one fuil point.Such a boost, it is argued, would add fuel to present demands by labor for wage increases.So the Government, as yet, has donc nothing, iL)! Important Matters Before Council on Monday By-law For $30,000 Passed by Substantial Majority\u2014Permit Asked to Erect 8 New Houses The regular meeting of the Huntingdon Town Council was held at the County Bullding, on Monday evening with all members present and Mayor W.ES, McNair presiding.The minutes of the last meetings were read and approved and the bills as read were passed for the payment.A letter was read in connection with support for the abolition of tolls on the Victoria and Jacques Cartier Bridges and completion of the Sir Wilfred Laurier highway.The Council] decided to support tho association working in this connection, Another Jetter was read from np lawyer in Vadleyfiecld, with regard to the water going through the sewer and on account of the ditches veing filled up and the possible damage that may result to Mr.D.Faubert's property.No action was taken on this.A letter wns read from the | Huntingdon County Hospital asking that there be no charge for the water for the

that part of town known as the MeCormick Fiald.The application wis from a group of interested persons who are anxious to do something to relieve the housing shortage in Huntingdon.IL was reported that if the permit was granted the digging of the basements would be commenced the next day.The homes are to be erected on Churchill and Roosevelt streets and connection to the water and sewer was also requested.The matter caused quite a little discussion ns the Council still had the matter of the present sewer and water project on hand and they felt that this new request might mean asking for more money.Mr, Fawcett said that from knowledge that he had it would be probable that there would be fifty nouses crected on this site and that the sewer and water was a necessity If the town Is to progress it must be expected that the Council would be faced by such propositions as this one from time to time, Mayor McNair agreed with him and sald that the town must be prepared for many difficult problems to be met In the near future and that such à brenosition meant.that the revenue of the town would be 1n- creased accordingly.However, It was finaly decided to leave the matter to an adjourned

less taken for granted.That is, not many people have taken the trouble to find out just how it operates or is financed.They have come to their own conclusions, and they readily agree that this band has improved greatly from a few years ago and that it is an asset to Huntingdon.This band has made great strides under its bandmaster, Mr.D.Moore, who came here in 1942 to train the boys of Huntingdon High School and Ormstown High School.He was living in Ormstown at the time and found that trying to keep the two bands going was a little too much for him.He decided to take over the Huntingdon boys and devote his attention to them alone.This has been done with the result that the band has made steady progress ever since.It has not been an easy task, and for Mr.Moore it has not been a very remunerative proposition.Besides taking the band as a unit for regular practices several times each week, he also takes the individual members at certain periods each day for individual practice.These members are taken so that they do not miss the same period in school twice in succession.At the present time there are about thirty boys in the band and each pays a fee of $1.00 per month.The Cadet headquarters coniributes $54.00 and from Quebec comes the sum of $200.00 annually.This is the sole amount of the support given to the band in a financial way.When the band plays for some special function a certain charge is made which adds to the funds.The Huntingdon High School Board contributes nothing in the way of financial support, contrary to popular belief.Mr.Moore was granted the use of the school to conduct his practices in and so forth, but the Board does not make any financial contribution.The Principal of the school is the President of the Band and Miss Elsie Salter looks after the funds and the payment of bills or expenses.Mr.Moore receives $50.00 per month for his services, which is made up of the amount collected for fees and the balance from the grants, etc.As Mr.Moore is a married man, this is naturally not enough to provide him with a livelihood and he must supplement this by further employment which takes up quite a lot more of his time.On more than one occasion, Mr.Moore has been tempted to give up his work with the band in order to seek more remunerative fields, but he comes from a long line of Bandmasters and his love for this kind of thing has caused him to stay on in the hope that after the war something better would be done for the Boys\u2019 Band.It must be pointed out here that no boy in the band is paid for his services and according to Mr.Moore never will be while he has charge of it, as it is a purely amateur organization and the boys get their enjoyment from playing in the band and from being a member of it.Actually the band has only about eight instruments which really belong to it, and here is a problem.Many of the older boys have purchased their own instruments and take them with them when they leave school.In the past while a number have left thé school and thus the band is short of several instruments with which to start other youngsters playing.The band bought some instruments a short time ago which cost well over $200.00 and they are still paying for them.Until these can be paid for they do not feel that they can buy more.Mr.Moore feels that with many army bands being disbanded there must he some instruments in the hands of the War Assets Corporation, which perhaps someone with influence could secure for the Huntingdon Boys\u2019 Band, or which could perhaps be purchased at a reasonable figure.This would be a great help to the band and one that would be appreciated.While the older boys leave the school, they are not allowed to be lost sight of unless they move from the district entirely.They can always be relied upon to fill in if required.However.Mr.Moore feels that these hoys should form the nucleus of a senior organization so that eventually there would be a senior band in Huntingdon.This band would then fill its vacancies from the Boys\u2019 band as they might occur and thus keep it functioning at all times.The Boys\u2019 Band has received much praise on the occasions of its playing at fairs and it has also played across the line, where the praise was even more than that received closer home.Mr.Moore has worked hard to bring the band to its present state of perfection and it is a grand thing for the boys themselves.During the war years he has refrained from making any remarks as to finances, but he feels that the time has come when the people should know the financial set-up and how the band manages to pay its way and exactly what is needed to carry on.Miss Salter deserves great praise for her part in looking after the finances of the band during the past years and she has also put in much of her time in looking after the needs of the band.From the financial picture it will be seen that the money which keeps the band going does not come from the people of Huntingdon except the portion in payment of fees, and the total that can he relied upon is $614.00 per year.Of this amount it takes $600.00 to pay for the services of the Bandmaster.This is little enough for the results obtained and the benefit that the boys of the band are getting.Further it must be remembered that the band is quite familiarly known as the Huntingdon High School Boys\u2019 Band, whereas in actual fact the School Board does not contribute one cent toward the upkeep of this band outside of allowing the use of the achool for practices, \u2018ete.It would help this worthwhile project if \".the school board could see its way clear to contribute even a little each year to help out with the expenses.The band is an asset to the school as much as it is to the community and it deserves all or any support that can be accorded it.The same is true of the citizens of Huntingdon and The Gleaner is sure that the boys and Mr.Moore would appreciate any contributions that the citizens may wish to make to the Band in order that they may purchase the necessities to make the organization that much better.Encouragement of this kind can do much to make the boys go on to do even better things.Mr.Moore's heart and soul is in this work and he loves it, with encouragement and \u2018appreciation of his efforts we feel sure that he can make this band the best for many miles around.+ + + Who Wants Butter?ROBABLY the first approach to queuing up in Canada has come with the present shortage of butter.While as far as we know, no queues have been formed, people are out and about all the time looking for this scarce commodity.Some are what may be called \u201clucky\u201d and able to secure an odd pound of butter as they just happen to arrive at a store as the \u201cgolden\u201d grease comes in.There are ugly rumours that Canadian butter is being shipped to the United States because a higher price can be obtained for it there.If this is the case, it is high time the authorities found out more about it and put a stop to these shipments.We cannot export articles that are in short supply and leave our own people without.This is a time when every country must do its best to keep supplies going in the right channels.Even though rationing is in effect, people are going short of butter because enough cannot be obtained to supply the people who need it and are entitled to it.Anyone who conducts any black market in butter at this time should be severely punished.Some local storekeepers are keeping a list of the names of their customers in order that their regular shoppers are able to obtain their share of the supplies when they reach the stores.This is a good idea to protect the rights of regular customers, but the amount of butter received by these stores is often only 50 pounds, and it can be realized how far this will go in such a community as this and the others surrounding it.The situation is not confined to Huntingdon alone, but is the same in other communities in this area.In Montreal we understand the situation is such that the stores are rationing the supply of butter by only one-half pound to a customer.This would mean that if this were done here instead of only fifty customers being served from the supply obtained, 100 persons would receive at least a little butter to go on with.The fact that butter is so short and that lard or other shortening is also in short supply.shouid be warning to the housewife that she cannot go in for making sandwiches, cakes, pies, and frying various eatables in fats to any great extent.If the fats on hand are looked after and strict economy exercised during this stringent period, it is possible that the need for butter will not be so paramount.If we just get along for the time being with a scraping on our bread and not use it at all where it is absolutely not gecessary, the shortage will not be so acute.This newspaper warned some time ago that supplies would be much less when the war ended and that we should be prepared to sacrifice a little.That time is here and we must be prepared to accept it and not grumble about! it.Many people in the European countries have not seen butter for years.We see it all the time and have always had plenty of it until the present time, even now there is enough if people will not be too greedy.+ + + Could Street Lighting Be Improved?HERE have been many complaints of late about the poor lighting of the streets.It is not so much a matter of insufficient numbers of street lights as it is of the radiance of the lights themselves.When the stores are closed in the evenings, the lights are hardly noticed and the streets are quite dull compared with other towns of like size.One man remarked that it seems like they have about 25 watt bulbs up on the poles and a match would give about as much light.It would seem that the cry is for stronger bulbs to be placed in all street lights so that a greater brilliance is obtained.Furthermore the fixtures should be kept clean so that whatever the power of the bulb, its full brilliance would be obtained.It is noticed that the bulbs and the reflectors are very dirty and this may account for part of the poor lighting.Oftentimes lights burn out and are not replaced for several nights.More attention should be paid to the street lighting now that the war is over and whoever is responsible for it should see that it is kept in perfect order.During the summer months when moths and flies are around.the lights become so covered as to show only a red glow up on the pole.This should never be allowed and whoever is responsible for the maintenance should see that the bulbs are kept clean, the reflectors kept clean and burned-out bulbs replaced immediately.If more powerful bulbs are required to give greater brilliance this matter should be adjusted by the Town Council and the Shawinigan Water and Power Co, It is understood that these lights are placed in a series and that this may account for some of the loss of brilliance at various parts of the town as there would probably be a drop in the power transmitted to the bulb at such points.Another matter that bothers many people is the serious drop in power at the periods of peak loads.Many people complain that when operating their electric stoves, toasters and such like at about 6.30 to possibly 9 o'clock in the mornings, the power seems to he so low tha! proper voltage is not transmitted to their utensils and consequently it takes longer to cook and so forth.But at about 10 am.the toast will burn in a few seconds, and so on.It would seem that insufficlent voltage was being transmitted to these parts during the peak load periods and that some electric transmission correction should be done to overcome this nuisance.People have put up with it during the war years because they considered that conditions were such that nothing could be done.Now they want these conditions remedied.With more electrical appliances being added to the homes and more becoming available, there will be greater calls upon the power supplied.No control can be made of the number of appllances that may be plugged in at any one time, so the power company must be prepared to step up its volt-_ age at such periods to overcome this annoyance.+ + + Just A Thought by the Way I\u2019 is quite natural for a big metropolis to spread out when it becomes overcrowded and to create what are called suburban areas.Toronto has done this on numerous occasions in the past and cities in older countries have been doing it continually.We in the Chateauguay Valley are close to the great metropolis of Montreal and it is a dally occurrence to see trucks and commercial vehicles arriving in Huntingdon and the other towns around carrying on business of one kind or another.There are people here who commute between the various towns and Montreal, part of the reason for this is because they are unable to find accommodation nearer to their employment.On the other hand there are people who room and board in Montreal, or have small apartments, who would like to have a house within commuting distance of the city.More houses are being built in Montreal every day and new districts are being opened up all the time.Recently the Daily Star carried an article on there being 115 four and six- room cottages now vacant at Nitro Village, near Valleyfield, and within 30 miles of Montreal.The article went on to say that anyone who would consider living that distance from Montreal, could apply to the Wartime Housing Limited in Valleyfield.Apparently this article started a flow of enquiries to this body and they have been swamped by far more enquiries than the aavilable houses.The rent quoted for these house was given as from $22 to $30 per month.This is considerably less than housing accommodation can be secured in the city and at the same time gives the renter a country home with a garden.The eagerness | | with which the article was read and acted upon shows that people are willing to live out of the city.This is when a metropolis begins tc spread out into suburban areas and eventually these areas become a part of the metropolis if not by actual incorporation, then by continuity of the growing areas.This eagerness causes manufacturing concerns who are thinking of extending their plants, to look for locations in such areas in order to afford their employees the chance to find better living accommodation.Oftentimes, too, the taxes are less in the suburban areas and thus advantages are afforded the manufacturing concerns which adds to the inducement.Thus the thought comes fo us that perhaps in the days to come the suburban area of Montreal may reach out into the Chateau- guay Valley and become a part of it.An official of the Wartime Housing Limited has announced that the houses in question are ready for occupancy by \u201cgood tenants\u201d who pay their rent, and since there are not enough veterans in need of the houses in Nitro, any house-hunter is being accepted.The houses are close to the main highway and there is a frequent bus service to either Montreal or Val- leyfield, which is three miles away.In England where trains and other modes of transportation are quite frequent, it is not uncommon for people to travel as much as sixty miles to get to their employment in London, each day.Schedules have been so arranged to make this possible and special low priced tickets are in effect to help workmen reach their destinations at low fares.During what are termed the rush hours, such means of transportation are full to overflowing, both in the morning and the evening.In fact the city of London itself, while being the busiest and noisest city during the day, becomes the quietest and most empty at night.While this may not happen to Montreal, there are the prEFIIIEIIAEES + OPINIONS : Of Others + + + + à + + + + + + + + + STOP, LOOK AND DO

to do import or export business, France had to have stabilized currency, or, to use the words of her Finance Minister, Rene Pleven, \u201cwe cannot ask aid from aboard before first putting our own house in order.\u201d Let's see what this means.After the First World War France found herself in financial difficulties.She dodged for some time and finally hit upon a rate of about forty to the

The family 1s the communal unit of the nation.upon which the nation derives its character.Parents have a far greater responsibility for the shaping of things to come than they realize.Next to the family in this responsibility is the Church.Indeed, without the Church and all that it stands for, family life would deteriorate,\u2014as it is deteriorating where children are ail- lowed to grow up without moral discipline and reverence for and even knowledge of the higher things of life.Christianity is essentially a family religion; its central doctrine being the Fatherhood of God.The Apostle Paul likened the Christian Church to a family when he said: \u201cThe Father of our Lord Jesus Christ of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named.\u201d It will be noted that the Church family is not confined to this earth, but takes in the heavens, and its membership transcends this mortal life.Robert Burns said, \u201cA correspondence fixed with Heaven is sure a noble anchor\u201d and the Church provides that correspondence for the family in public worship.O sweeter than the marriage-feast, \u2018Tis sweeter far to me, i To walk together to the kirk With a goodly company!- To walk together to the kirk, And all together pray, While each to his great Father bends, Old men.and babes, and loving friends, And youths and maidens gay! Those lines from Coleridge's \u201cAncient Mariner\u201d were uttered by a man whose soul had been \u201calone on a wide, wide sea; so lonely \u2019twas, that God Himself scarce seemed there to be\" and who was glad to be back home among his own people.The picture of the family walking together to church on the serene Sabbath days, with the bells chiming out their call to worship, is typical of the Victorian period in the Old Country, and also of Canada, But family church-going has fallen off in the past thirty years both here and in Great Britain, where they tell me the churches are \u201cempty\u201d.Whatever may be the causes of this falling- off, and there are many excuses, there is no doubt that family life generally has lost in sanctity, in culture and moral influence as a result of the decline in public family worship, This, in turn, has had a lowering effect upon the cultural end moral standards of the peonle in general, It is not that people despise religion or the churches, they are merely indifferent.The great mass of Canadian people claim to belong to some Christian denomination, as the census figures show.But they take the churches for granted,\u2014thev are there in cases of emergency, and ministers can always pe calied upon to baptize babies.perform a marriage ceremony and give one a decent Christian burial.No one wants to be buried like a dog.But Christianity is not something to die with; it is something to live by.None of us live fully up to its standards, but the habit of church-going cnables us to keep a check on our failings and cultivate our souls.\u201cWhatever the world thinks.\u201d said Berkeley, \u201che who hath not much meditated upon God, the human mind and the chief good may probably make a thriving earthworm, but wil] most certainly make a sorry citizen and a sorry statesman.\u201d eo ote of ER) > 070 ofa ole ofa ole eo oe of Se of of * - This Week * at : OTTAWA © te + Ys Ye 2 Ye +.*.Ye 7 RJ Qo os of oe ole ole So oe oe ole fe of of of ob 2, (3 ofa ole ole of 5.oe ode ofe ole fe ols pe Specially Written for The Gleaner By IH.DENT HODGSON, (Canadian Press Staff Writer.OTTAWA.(CP) \u2014 With demand rising, produciion falling and butter stocks dangerously low, Canadians will have to spread their butter thinner during the next two months than ever before.And even with the weekly butter ration reduced to four ounces a person, there probably will be temporary local shortages until May, when production again starts on the upswing.A ration cut in the off-production season between December and May is nothing new to Canadians.They experienced similar cuts last winter and the year before.This, however, is the first month the butter ration has dropped below six ounces a week, Main reason tor the shortage, of- ficlals believe, is that the civillan population, swelled by returning servicemen and their dependents, is more than 600,000 greater than a year ago.In addition, an enlarged purchasing power has created a greater demand for the table companion of the staff of life.Every year, Canada must start its storage scason with about 10,000,000 pounds of butter in reserve in order to pad out its low production.These stocks gradually are used up by May.This year, however, increased demand left cold storage holdings 5,- 000,000 pounds lower at Jan.1, 1848, and by Feb.1 stocks were 8,000,000 pounds less.Worse still, the Domin- fon, which usually produces.about 53 per cent of its requirements during the off-production season, this year is producing only 43 per cent.Faced with prospects of running 3.000.000 pounds short before the end of April.officials considered importing enough butter to meet the deficit.But the world supply of butter was low, and most countries were worse off than Canada.Margarine was another possibility, but there was a serious world shortage of edible fats from which margarine is made.The answer, of course, was the two-ounce cut, which officials estimate will save the 3,000,000 pounds needed and leave the butter situation satisfactory by May 1, when the ration is expected to return to six ounces at least.Some districts last weck reported there was not enough butter in the stores to match coupons, and offi- Montreal.gr t % Via RL | EL) Vo higher!

their priority.The Northern Electric was now trying to obtain increased quotas for their business.In order w overcome this difficulty, his company had experimented with ana were manufacturing a new type cf plastic covered wire to replace the silk, and cotton covered cords.Samples of this new type wiring were passed around to all present.They are manufactured in eight different colors and while the price is a little higher, the actual job can be done as cheap or cheaper, because more wires can be placed in smaller pipes.The wire had passed the electrical code inspection and of copper wire on hand and thus they are able to supply this new type wire in any quantity.They also had plenty of the type of cable required by the power companies for the stringing of their power supply lines.Mr.J.Bouchard outlined some of the highlights of the meeting for the French speaking members of the audience, Mr.S.J.Currie thanked the speakers for the enlighténment they had given on the supply question and on the prospects that the future held in store and also for giving of ther time in coming here and addressing those present.He then went on to ask the meeting what was thought of forming some kind of association among the electrical contractors of the three counties.He said he felt that there was a need of some organi- zaton' to control prices of contracts and to bring about a better understanding between the contractor and the person having the work done.The principal grievance among contractors was that of price cutting.He felt that when a contractor gave a price that was below that of another competitor that the customer was not getting the right kind of work or something of inferior quality was going into the work and it was this that was enabling the contractor to quote a lower price.If it Was not this, then he must be losing money to underbid his competitor.All contractors should get together and work out a fair basis of charges and rates to suit the localities they were in and in this way all prices would be fair and just and would not be so confusing to the person having the work done.If an association could be formed, these matters could be worked out and a legitimate profit could be had by all contractors for their work while the customers would be assured of being charged fair prices for the work and the materials.Discussion On this followed and à majority of those present were in favour of organizing for an association.It was felt that many matters could be brought before such an association and that these could be discussed and remedies found to better the services given by the contractors.Some of those present felt that various parts of the electrical code should be discussed and make the members more familiar with the changes that were made from time to time.The crux of the discussion was reached when a committee was formed to look into the matter and to report back to à meeting in about a month or six weeks time.This committee was composed of Mr.J.A Gosselin, Sales Manager for Shawinigan Water & Power Company, Valleyfleld; Mr.Adelard Le- compte, Valleyfield; Mr.J.B.Mat- teu, Beauharnois and Mr.8 J.Currie of Huntingdon, Av this period the meeting adjourned for a social time before the ganquet, during which time group discussions were had on mht- or of interest to the elec.rical e.At seven p.m.all sat down to a nicely prepared banquet in the ho- the banquet, during which time welcomed everyone including some who had been unabl ble to the afternoon meeting.Following the mea] Mr.Harold i apres nia

being made.It was not just a tater of putting in a few lights : ese days, it Was a matter of put- ing in the right type of light in the right place for the most effective lighting possible Th the

making and is in the stage that fluorescent was a few years ago; this is the cold cathode.It would be some time before this has reached the present stage of the fluorescent, so there would be plenty of time to study that later, He said he wanted to impress on the contractors the importance of the proper study of lighting in crder to give customers the best effects'in their homes.etc.Oftentimes by a better study, advice could be glven ther customer on beter location of the proposed lighting scheme which would result in greater satisfaction.By means of screening pictures, Mr, Nelson showed his audience what they could expect in the way of appliances when conditions returned 10 near normal and supplies could be obtained.New ideas for many types of appliances are being drawn up in the plan form and will go into production as quick- lv as possible and as soon as conversions from war plants to peacetime production can be made, or new {actcries built.The steel strike had disrupted much of the manufacture ot apmliances of all kinds and the materials for making the special enamel! finishes on refrigerators and such like were also being held up.But from time to time some appliances would be coming through and eventually all would be supplied and the flow would increase.The pictures showed the growth of thie Northern Electric Company from à small beginning and its present day capacity.This address brought to a conctu- sion a very interesting and instructive afternoon and evening, The whole brought forth much information -as to the supply situation and the prospects of the electrical industry in the future.While present prospects are not bright, the future holds much for the contractor and the consumer.Mr.Currie was heartily thanked for the interesting and pleasant get-together he had sponsored, + + + à + à + + à + 4 + 4 + + + COUNCIL > MEETINGS ; été a 404 44444ÈE HINCHINBROOK COUNCIL A regular meeting of the Municipal Council of Township of Hinchinbrooke was

distinguished family who had come home for her 100th birthday which was observed on Sunday.Sailor of the seas in old fash- oned four-masted schooners and !traveller of the highway in high wheeled stagecoaches, one of the last links with the romantic past, died this morning in the person.of Mrs, Charles (Granny) Hynd- man.She had just celebrated her 100th birthday last Sunday, surrounded by her family.A beloved citizen of Charlottetown for many years, she had been known to all for her kindness, ready wit and friendliness.Mrs.Hyndman had enjoyed many distinctions through her lifetime and not least of them was the fact that during her study years at Prince of Wales College she set a unique record in obtaining 100% in every subject.In appreciation'of her feat she was presented with a beautifully engraved book by the then superintendent of education and in it were the autographs of government notables of the day.Mrs.Hyndman had also been the oldest living graduate of Mount Allison Academy.graduating in 1866 before there was a university in Sackville, N.B.She had also lived longer than any other member of her own family and was its last survivor.Bom Katherine MacDonald at Point Prim, P.EI, on February 10th, 1846, she was the daughter of Captain Alexander Mac- Donald and Mary MacRae.At the age of 13 she travelled to England in her father's ship and attended school there for some time before returning.On his second trip after taking his daughter to England.Captain MacDonald was lost at sea and never heard of again.Their trip together on the \u201cIsabel\u201d required forty days.When she celebrated her birthday, last Sunday, all her surviving children were present and they were still with her when the end came today.They were A.W.Hyndman of Charlottetown, P.E.1., Mr.Justice J.D.Hyndman.of Ottawa, C.A.Hyndman of Edmonton, Alta., and Mrs.Gertrude Bayfield.of Ottawa.One son.Thomas, was killed in the first Great War, another, Harry.died a few years ago in Western Canada.A brother of hers, D.A.MacDonald, has been Chief Bench in | Manitoba.He died in Justice of the Court of King\u2019s Bench in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1938.Mrs.Hyndman also had 20 grandchildren and 14 great- grandchildren.Eight of her grandsons saw service in the last war.When she returned to Canada aîter her stay in England as a child, she attended Miss Mun- cey's private school before going to Prince of Wales, and later Mount Allison.She married Charles Hyndman in 1873 and following his death in 1903 she moved to Edmonton for a number of years before returning to her home here.A long time worshipper at St.James Church, she made its interests her main concern in life and so long as health permitted, she was a regular attendant.She was also keenly interested in other branches of church service and was a member of the WM.Sand Ladies\u2019 Auxiliary.Up to within a few days of her death she was in excellent spirits and remarkably good health.Her her mind keen and retentive.Charlottetown's \u201cGrand Old Lady\u201d will be sadly missed in a community where she will long be remembered for the good she has done.The above write-up will interest many people as
