[" A Happy and Prosperous New Year To All NINETY-SECOND YEAR HE HUNTINGDON GLEANER THE LEADING ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE DISTRICT OF Scene of Huntingdon May Be Seen on Cunard Ship Special Room Being Designated on New Ship \u201cIvernia\u201d Soon to Be It is quite possible that Hunting- don may become even more widely known than is presently the case.It is possible that thousands of people will be viewing a scene from Huntingdon and asking where it is and perhaps wishing to visit it sometime.For a great part of the time, these people may be viewing this scene away out in the Atlantic Ocean, or it may be at a dock in England or Canada.The Cunard Steam-Ship Company Limited is presently adding new ships to its line of steam-ships plying between Liverpool, England and Quebec and Montreal, Canada.These new ships are the very latest in design and appointments and can be termed luxury travel palaces.Those who have travelled by ocean liner can appreciate having the utmost in travel comfort and variety of entertainment, for once out in the ocean, the ship becomes everything that you might want on land.The Cunard Company is therefore trying to provide all those things that will help to make passengers comfortable and at home during the voyage from point to point.To further interest the passengers from both England and Canada, a special room has been designated in at least one of the new ships and here mural designs will depict scenes from various cities and towns in Canada which have a counterpart of the same name in England.Just before the Christmas holiday, The Huntingdon Gleaner received a letter from officials of the Cunard Line and in it a request was made for a suitable scene of Huntingdon, to be placed in one of the public rooms of one of the new ships.The new ship will be named \u201cIvernia\u201d and will make its maiden voyage from Liverpool to Quebec and Montreal, on June 30th, 1955.The room on the ship which will carry the murals, will be known as \u201cThe City Cousins\u201d.The decor of the | room will comprise a series of! (able publicity as a result of the Added to Line Murals depicting Canadian cities, towns and villages which have counterparts in the United Kingdom.As Huntingdon, Que, has a counterpart in Huntingdon, England, the principals of the Cunard Line requested to be supplied with scenes from Huntingdon, Que., which an artist in England could use to paint a mural in this particular room.\u201cThe Gleaner\u201d having many such scenes in its photograph library files, readily complied with the request and they went forth for examination.A further letter has been received, thanking the Gleaner for the photographs and saying that the prints had been dispatched to England forthwith.Perhaps in the near future we shall be receiving photographs of this room and in them we shall have an opportunity of seeing what has been done with prints that have been sent.It is quite possible that Huntingdon will gain much favor- scene which will appear in \u201cThe City Cousins\u201d room of the \u201cIvernia\u201d when she makes her voyages back and forth across the ocean.Mayhap that some of our citizens will be travelling on this ship at some time and they will see at first hand the scene in this very room.If they do, they will feel more at home on their voyage and will point it out to other passengers from other places.There has been much in common between Huntingdon, England and Huntingdon, Quebec, for during the war years an almost steady flow of correspondence and gifts was kept up betweeen the two namesake towns.Once again the bond between the two will be brought into the public light and much interest will be shown in this Cunard ship \u201cIvernia\u2019\u2019 as it forges a link of continuity by its erossings between the two countries.HUNTINGDON, QUE., WEDNESDAY.DECEMBER 29th, 1954 Our Advertisers Our Subscribers Our Correspondents and Friends Is The Wish From The Huntingdon Gleaner Huntingdon, Que.Two Dead and In An Accident at Coteau Two well known citizens of Valley- field lost their lives in an accident which occured last Thursday, December 23rd, when the car they occupied was violently hit by another coming from the opposite direction.The dead are Mr.Oliva Proulx, 66 years old, 34 Isabella Street, and his brother-in-law Mr.Edmond- Philippe Lacrois, also 66 years old, 9 Murphy Street.The collision happened on National

The injured persons are Mrs.Edmond Lacroix, wife of one of the victims, Mrs.Etienne Poirier, daughter of Mr.Edmond Lacroix, and her two children, Rachelle 3, and Francine 2, The driver of the other car, who was alone, Mr.Romeo DeBellefeuil- le, 34, 5274 7th Ave, Rosemont, was Four Injured Sergent André Brunet, of Ste- Anne-de-Bellevue, was first to arrive at the scene of the accident.He immediately sent for Dr.J.B.Lalonde, of Coteau-du-Lac, who declared the two men dead and gave the first aid treatment to the others.Detective Bernard Gendron, of the Homicide Squad, also arrived along with Dr.J.B.Clément, Coroner of Les Cédres who held the inquest.The funeral took place on Monday, at eight o'clock, in the Sacred- Heart church.The Officiating priest was Cannon H.Julien, pastor, assisted by Fathers Léger and Laurin, Mr.Lacroix was buried in the Valleyfield cemetery, and Mr.Proulx was buried at Cap-St-Ignace, on Tuesday.Besides his wife (Edwidge Proulx) Mr.Lacroix leaves to mourn two, daughters, two grand-children, three brothers, one sister, two sister-in- laws and a brother-in-law.Mr.Oliva Proulx leaves to mourn his loss four sisters, and two broth- not hurt.ers-in-law.Health Conditions in Canada Show Improvement in 1954 Ottawa, Ont.\u2014 In 1854, Canada experienced the most favourable health conditions on record, according to the statisticians of the Metropolitan (Life Insurance Company, who estimate the death rate for the year at 8.2 per 1,000 population on the basis of experience during the first 10 months.This marks the third successive year for which the death rate was under 9.0 per 1,000.\u201cFor the first time in Canadian history, the death rate from tuberculosis fell below 10 per 100,000 population\u201d the statisticians report.\u201cAs recently as 1951 the death rate from this disease was 24 per 100,000, and five years ago it was 32 per 100,000.(continued on page 5) SANTA CLAUS VISITS HOSPITAL IN VALLEYFIELD The

Little Girl The \u201cTinee\u201d Benevolent Fund Is now closing its campaign for gift donations and cards for the benefit of the little 13-year-old girl who is still hospitalized and a patient in the Huntingdon County Hospital, It is a matter of much gratification that the donations and cards came in so spontaneously in response to the press appeal made through the columns of \u201cThe Gleaner\u201d and \u201cLa Gazette, Valleyfield-Beauharnois™.The aggregate of cash so received will be close to $400.This fund is going to be sufficient to pay for all the medical and hospital care to date and leave sufficient balance to carry on for some few weeks time.The family doctor reports that \u201cTinee\u201d is showing some improvement, in that she is regaining some strength and when it is considered she will be able to be taken to Montreal for a decision as to whether an operation can be performed or not.\u2018The great shower of Xmas cards that \u201cTinee\u201d received could not help but give joy to the little girl and to the parents who now know 50 many people wish their little daughter good fortune.Following are further donations received since last week: $5\u2014Mrs, Annie

of that famous county \u2014 Ayrshire.The district is very rich in dairying resources and at the same time, it is this great district where that famous Scot, Robbie Burns, wrote Generous Gift To Barrie Memorial Mr.L.À.Forsyth Donates $1,000 For Hospital Aid In the list of donations to the Barrie Memorial Hospital, Orms- town, which has been received this week, a rather sizeable one is noted as having been received from Mr.L.A.Forsyth, Montreal, and who also is well known in Huntingdon as having a farm at Dundee.The amount of the donation is $1,000 and an individual.All hospitals are in need of such support and that the Barrie should be the recipient is especially newsworthy as it is one of the hospitals which serves the local populace.At present, construction work is proceeding in connection with a nurses\u2019 residence on the Hospital property and contributions will be greatly appreciated as an aid to completion of this project.At present the nurses are being accommodated on the third floor of the hospital and with the pressure of patient accommodation, this space could more profitably be used for patients.It has long been decided to build a nurses\u2019 home, but it was not until this year that the hospital board could see its way clear to give the green light.Only a part of the plan is being gone ahead with at this time, but it will be sufficient for a time to allow of more patient space being available in the hospital.A call has already gone out for contributions toward the new project and many have responded.Mr.Forsyth's contribution, while not necessarily designated for the above is gratefully received by the hospital board as an aid in financing the needs of the Barrie Memorial Hospital.Observations Robert G.Sellar, AYR.his poems upholding the poor man especially the Scot and condemning and damning the rich, namely the Englishman, The County seat of Ayrshire is the pretty little town of Ayr along the Irish Sea.Across the waters lies Ireland.In Ayr, there are many seaside hotels where the English people come from the south of Eng- and to the north in the summer- me.Located in Ayr is the headquarters of the Ayrshire Cattle Herd Book Society of Great Britain, Within the large office building, there is a staff of over 75 who file and record all the registered Ayr- shires in the British Isles.Within the county there is one of the largest airports in the British Isles.It is at Prestwick where many of the transatlantic flights from North America touch down before continuing their way south and east in Europe.It is said that this airport is always showered with rain, although the day that I visited the place, it was sunny and delightful.The terrain in the county is gently rolling country ending abruptly at the sea-shore with steep granite cliffs, The large farms, of which many of them are large estates numbering over 3,000 acres have be- - sides Ayrshires, large quantities of , potatoes, hay, grain, swine and sheep are reared.During the past sum- it must be admitted that this is mer, the farmers were averaging very generous indeed on the part of from 8 to 13 tons of potatoes to an acre and one farmer was harvesting \u201815 tons to an acre, an exceptional figure, During my journeyings through Ayrshire, I visited such towns as Kilmarnock, Troon, Kersland, Dun- \u2018lop, etc, and also had the pleasure of meeting a number of people well- Enown throughout this district, viz: r.an .George T leton, Sangh and fone of Cornell Home arm, Mr.a Mrs.Geo Knox of Kersland, etc.Tee owing much about agriculture, especially cattlef I won\u2019t give any impressions of the animals I saw, except that I was extremely impressed with the fine type of animals.However, If the farmers will permit me, I should like to describe a typical barn-yard scene that may be seen anywhere in the British Isles.To every farmer in the British Isles, the biggest threat to the peace of the place is fire.And since there is a great shortage of land for cultivation and not too many farms, the buildings on each farm are vastly different from those buildings seen on a typical farm in Canada.When a farmer in the British Isles wishes to build, he must build to the specifications of the Health and Fire Preventive Boards.Thus all barn buildings are single storey.A typical cattle barn is something like } what a Canadian farmer would call a milking parlour.Hay is not permitted to be stored above the catile in the mow.Instead the roof of the British barn has many windows in order to give the cattle as much natural light as possible, Separating each animal there is a concrete or steel pipe fence so that when the cow wishes to lie down, It will do so without stepping on its neighbour.Incidentally, all the barn buildings are built of fire-proof concrete to cut the hazard of fire to the very steel sheets or other such fire resistant substances.One seldoms sees wooden shingles, etc, The hay is either stored on raised is baled and stored under a large lean-to that is open on all sides.The calf barn is usually separate from the cows.Each pen is bullt of concrete and is of different size depending upon the age of the animal.: Quite often the barns are built, around an inner concrete surface courtyard.Any of the courtyards that I saw, were always spick-and- span.A manure pile is not allowed to accumulate behind the cattle barn.) in the fields.About the farm, all the roads are usually black topped or cement.This\u2019 permits the farm machinery to move! at a quicker pace to whatever the! destination it is going.PR AH

BEING INTERESTING NOTES OF NEWS IN COMMENT FORM Zestful Living | 4 i } TRIED AND TESTED FOR SATISFACTION THIS WEEK \u2014 \u201cENTERTAINING BUFFET STYLE\u201d Whether designed for the New Year season or later mid-winter entertaining, a buffet supper party will long be remembered if the setting is a home where genuine hospitality prevails, the hostess one who graciously enjoys the party with her guests, and the supper table is well appointed.Buffet service for a supper party is ideal for it breaks down formality and at the same time relieves the hostess of considerable work, In our hpmes today a buffet party is far removed from the elaborate buffets of a century ago.The origin of the expression \u201cbuffet\u201d applying to the serving of food goes back to France Where, in entertaining royalty and other dignitar- jes the feast would be lavishly arranged on a tiered continous table placed against the long wall of the banquet room.The famous French chef Antonin Caré- me described as an outstanding food artist, is credited with simplifying the buffet to some extent and making it a more popular service.And so the tiered buffet became a flat table, sometimes being moved away from the wall, However, in our homes today, if it is possible, we do like to have our buffet table against a wall or window with the decorations across the back and the food arranged at both ends and across the front.In planning a buffet supper the first thing to be considered is the number of guests, The smart hostess does not invite more guests than she can comfortably accommodate.The size of the dining room, the extent of china and silverware, both must be taken into consideration in planning the size of the party.Eight to twelve guests is a conve- prepared some time in advance, so that she will have little to do immediately before supper is served except to arrange the food on the table.A word is in order on the table arrangement.The table should be extended to the size which allows the food to be placed on it without over-crowding and the guests to move easily about the table.The dining room buffet may be used as a supplementary serving table but the supper itself should be served from the dining table.If the room is large the extended table may be left in the centre, but if not it should be pushed back against a wall or window to allow more room for guests to serve themselves.A cutwork or lace cloth makes an attractive table covering, or a damask cloth will serve the purpose, but in either case the cloth should entirely cover the table and extend one foot over the edge.The cutlery and napkins should be placed in groups as they will be used.If there are to be more than eight guests, tow containers for each food should be on the table, If there is not sufficient space on the table for the dessert, or if a frozen dessert is being served, it can be brought in to the buffet table after the first course.As for serving the beverage, one of the hostess\u2019 most intimate friends at the party might be asked to pour coffee either from the end of the table or from a side table.Well made plans for a buffet supper pay dividends.The first thing is to decide the menu, next to do the shopping and then go to work in preparing the food and the table.Most buffet suppers fall into a pattern something like this- for the first course a fruit or veget- sponsored by St.Justine Hospital.According to Sam Pearlman, divi- has changed the motion picture going habits of the North American people.) \u201cThe Cinerama performance, which features reserved seats at regular times each weekday and evening, as well as Sunday, is viewed with extreme favor by Cinerama patrons in 13 American cities, because of minimized disturbance during the presentation,\u201d Mr.Pearlman said today.At Cinerama performances, he stated the audience is seated before the performance begins and there is no disturbance caused by people coming and going during the show.There is an intermission halfway through the presentation.Mr.Pearlman advised that there is no comparison with 3-D or Cine- maScope or anything of that kind, as glasses are not required and the audience actually feels as though they are part of the picture, by being at the scene of action when it happens.In the Cinerama presentation, three films are projected from three booths on the main floor, and synchronised and flashed on a huge screen, six times larger than the conventional one.The sound, on seven sound tracks, comes from a fourth booth, located in the balcony.Thus, the illusion of three dimensions, even a feeling of actual participation, is created giving the audience the effect of being lifted out of their theatre seats.Fred Waller, the: inventor, spent the better part of 15 years and more than twelve million dollars to bring it to its present state of perfection.During the war, it was used in gunnery training school and is credited with saving many thousand of

insurance are a must for everybody,\u201d said the: West Lateral Forum in British Columbia.Fire insurance, according to 285 Forums, is a basic form of protection for the farmer since the catastrophe of a farm fire can wipe out the savings of a lifetime in a few minutes.As the Bear Island Forum in New Brunswick put it, \u201cFarm buildings are the means of paying It used to be said that if you could get a ticket to a play on iNew York's Broadway the play wasn't worth seeing.And it is still quite impossible to get a good seat there at curtain time.But not so in Toronto.There's a slump in theatrical patronage there, and no explanation is forthcoming - - - unless it is the current attraction \u201cwhich the one million television sets in the area seems to have.Last year as the winter's social season | began, Toronto's theatres were sold out well in advance.This year there are large blocks of seats pathetically empty, In spite of some good productions.However, the audience is only part of the show.I saw \u201cThe Calne Mutiny Court-Martial\u201d at the Royal Alexandra and thought Paul Douglas handled the Captain Queeg part excellently.Having read Herman Wouk's book, seen the movie with (Humphrey Bogart, and the New York production with Lloyd Nolan, that is quite enough of naval mutinies and captains with schizophrenia.But not so of Rodgers and Hammerstein\u2019s fabulous \u201cOklahoma\u201d, the Pulitzer prize winning musical which closed on Broadway in 1948 after a record 2,246 performances.It also played at the Royal Alex recently.One may tire of the Caine, but never \u2018\u2018Oklahoma!\u201d Even Christopher Fry's new play, \u201cThe Dark is Light Enough\u201d, with Katharine Cornell and Tyrone Power, played to smaller audiences than might be expected; and T.S.Eliot's \u201cThe Confidential Clerk\u201d, on the stage at The Crest, Toronto's only repertory theatre, belied enthusiastic support of the Canadian theatre which was evidenced in Stratford last summer.Let us hope the slump is temporary.The Shakespeare Festival, incidentally, drew a total audience in 1953 of 125,155; and in the nine- week season of 1954 took in a gross ticket revenue of $388,809, making a strating surgical operations to students.In Britain it is also used to observe at close range the various manifestations of the split atom and military operations.TV is with us jindeed! In five years time the United States hopes to have 2,000 television stations as many as there are radio stations now.There are almost 400 transmission stations at this date, feeding various kinds of programs into almost 33 million TV sets in the Us In Canada there are 22 TV stations on the air.The hours of operation are short, however, and the C.B.C.does not go on usually until six pm.Canada, of course is looking forward to a network of stations an ams right and progr ght across the con.It seems rather curious that Germany, the country which has historically given so much to science and engineering, has had television for just two years.Allan\u2019s Corners ALLAN\u2019S CORNERS \u2014 Mr, and Mrs, \u2018Alan Stewart, Pearl and Billy of Athelstan, were guests on Sunday, Dec.19th at

for which so much preparation is made for so long before hand, than Christmas.Other holidays come and go with little - ado, but not so with Christmas.But this Christmas seemed different in some way.Do not ask us why, it just did that's all.Perhaps it was because the world for the first time was at peace.For this reason perhaps the people had more time to devote to the actual celebration and thought of Christmas.Even carols that were sung and freely heard on the radio and by other means, seemed to take on new meaning.More people attended the various church services and there was a greater devotion to the divine purpose of Christmas.It was generally quiet, although everyone when questioned said they had had a very enjoyable time.As is usual, the holiday was spent in various ways\u2014family gatherings, far away guests visiting old friends, others going to family gatherings in other parts.The weekend provided a very good time for such a holiday and added to the religious part of the festivities.Pre-Christmas trade was apparently satisfactory to most of the business people.There was nething spectacular in the way of heavy ifts and useful gifts in the reasonable priced racket, but these gifts were bought just the same.Most business people said their business would be about the same as in other years and they were satisfied.This general satisfaction seemed to vail all through the Christmas holiday.While general conditions were not at such a high mark as for some years previous, there were no notes of discord and everyone was contented with their lot.In fact there were many who were happy that they were employed and able to spend Christmas in such manner.-Earlier in the year the prospect had looked dark indeed, but happily, this condition is for the moment at least ended.No doubt there was many a fervent prayer that this gainful condition would continue.Yes, we would say, that all in all this was a very happy Christmas for everyone.Some of the rush had passed and we have all had time to think.We have had time to evaluate our positions and the conditions prevailing.This has had a sobering effect upon our natures and we have come to realize it is time to level off at a lower plane than previously.It is good to realize and yet not to mar our happiness.It does not mean loss, it means stabilization.gi People this year, bought practical One Down And One To Go WE have just completed the Christmas holiday and are looking forward now to a celebration of the New Year's holiday.There is just a brief period between the two holidays which mark the end of one year and the beginning of a new one.In the fifty-one weeks that have passed, the history of the year has been made and we have passed through new experiences.The future is unpredictable to a certain extent, but we do try to base hopes for the future on what has happened in the past.We try to plan ahead on the basis of the past and what this past sgems to portend for the future.It may mean much and again it may mean little.However, it gives us hope.It is not the ability of man to see the future and it is probably good that he cannot do so.He has managed to do most everything else but so far he has not been able to entirely conquer a foresight of the future.Such foresight would be a valuable asset on the one hand and yet it might also be a liability too.If we knew what would happen six months or twelve months ahead, we would perhaps not have the courage to face it.As it is we meet the future as it unfolds without any review.It presents its problems and its eartaches, but we plow through to success if that is possible.We do however, plan for the future and we base such.plans on what has happened in the past.Like history, life repeats itself over and over again.Having once met a problem and found a solution, we are better equipped the next time we meet the same kind of problem.Problems have a habit of reoccurring, not always in the same form, but oftentimes quite similar.Thus at the time of the New Year, we view the old year and check upon the mistakes and success we have experienced.We decide to improve upon our successes and to rectify our mistakes in order that the new year will be better than the old.This is progress, it is staying out of the rut and it is laying foundations tor improvement in all we do.Those who remain and persist in following the same line are in a rut and will likely never get out of it.This does not mean we change our principles, for our character is built upon the principles we have set up as our way of life or business.What we change mostly are our methods of doing things.One method may be successful, while another can be disastrous.Once a method has been proven, it can become a principle that may be followed as a standard practice.What's good enough for John is good enough for me, is not a principle, it lacks initiative and inclines one to follow in a rut.There can be no progress unless there is an aim or an objective.Thus the best we can do as to the future is engender an aim or an objective which we hope to reach as an ambition or goal.Once this has been done, we have done all we can as to the future and must await the turn of events.We will celebrate the New Year's holida at the end of the week and then we shall have to settle down to racing that year, come what may.To some the holiday means much, to others it means little, but each will observe it in his or her own way.In place of Merry Christmas, the greeting will change to \u201cHappy New Year\u201d.Each and all of us hope that it will truly be a \u201cHappy New Year\u201d.Outstanding - Carried Forward HILE business firms use the expression ¥ \u2014 We will close our books on such and such a date \u2014 this is literally impossible.The expression merely means that one year\u2019s business will be called to a halt ere another begins.To close the books would mean that all accounts owing must be paid and all accounts due must also be paid \u2014 there must be no outstanding whatever.It is well known however, when financial statements are made up that there is a column for the outstand- ings on both sides, unless a business has been wound up entirely.As in the business world, so it is in world affairs.The end of the year comes along and finds many matters still to be settled for which hopes of settlement had been entertained betore the close of the year.One of these matters is that of the Income Tax problem of Quebec.It was voiced settlement would be announced before the end of the year, but with only a few days to go, this does not seem likely.It seems more likely that settlement will only be reached after the Federal Parliament has met in regular session.Farther afield, there is the question of agreement in the matter of arming Germany and her entrance into the European defence plan.It is getting closer all the time, but certain blocks have to be removed.Russia has tried her best to throw a monkey-wrench into the works and is using everything to jam up the machinery.The remaining cog that has to be fitted is France.So far, the matter is still in the discussion stage although some concessions have been made and ratified.If all concessions are not made, then the machinery will not be able to start.If Russia succeeds in breaking even a small part, the delay will endure longer.Talk still runs along the line of a Third World War.Thought naturally follows the same line with a question \u2014 Will there be a third World War?No one can answer that question \u2014 it is carried forward as outstanding.Our main objective at present is to prevent a Third World War if at all possible.Several times we have trembled on the edge of an abyss and been ulled back to safety and avoidance.How long this can go on depends upon time and patience.It is like waiting for the detonation of an explosive charge \u2014 filled with intense- ness and suspense.Meantime, we must continue to cany forward on our books that little item of preparedness and defence.It cannot be closed out, it is both outstanding and current and must remain so until such time that evidence points to complete agreement as to the peace of the world.As long as there remains even the suggestion of a mild threat, we cannot close our books on this issue.It is both an asset and a liability.In some senses it is a guarantee.While we continue to remain strong and ready, the enemy must either grow stronger or give up any idea of aggression or attack.It is an item of expense and it is an item of receipts.As a receipt it helps to maintain the peace.As an expense, is the cost of maintaining the peace.The only profit gained is the race for time against the chance of sudden and unprovoked attack.Cash on hand and in the bank can be likened to our general business both domestic and export.Outstanding cheques can be likened to that extra business we need and new markets to be gained.Upon these depends our ability to pay the taxes to pay for the preparedness and defence.In other words we must be able to continue the heights of business and employment of 1954 and to increase it if possible.Any recession at this time could have disastrous effects more far reaching than just upon our domestic economy.Glimpses of The Past Taken from Gleaner Files \u2014 1920 \u2014 January 8th

around the village has been increasing and hardly a night passes but cars may be said to pass at high speed, a good many either carrying no license number or one which is disfigured.That they do not travel at such hours and in such weather for pleasure is evident and undoubtedly they are carrying cargoes of liquor from this province into New York State.This illegal business is growing to such proportions that the few American officers along the line, though they intercept a few, are unable to combat so large an organization and until the roads become impassable for automobiles they will be unable to do so unless assisted by headquarters.January 29th Ormstown \u2014 Re.Ormstown Show, the following appears \u2014 It was decided to hold the show later in the month this year as it was

covered thatched cottage with smoke ascending from the chimney, and in the foreground a robin-redbreast perched on a sprig of holly be- gemmed with red berries.There is or was a close association between the humble homes of England and that humblest and prettiest of birds, especially at Christmas when the little feathered waif was hungry and lonely out there in the snow and dow begging for a crumb and com- panship.He is the only bird that has no fear of humans in winter or summer; he seems to understand them.Some years ago while on a visit in the green Close of Salisbury Cathedral with my legs crossed contemplating the architectural beauty of that ancient fane, when a robin Of all the many Christmas cards\u2019 from Canada and was meditating on would come and peck at the win-! |neard of the bird-watchers, but here to England I was sitting on a bench! yy alighted upon the toe of my shoe and cocked his eye curiously at me, as much as to say, \u201cWhere do you come from, stranger, and why do you sit here all alone gazing up at! this structure?\u201d I replied that I was the fine art, craftsmanship and the years of hard labor that had been devoted to the creation of that beautiful Cathedral seven hundred years ago.With a proud perk of his head and a merry chirp the robin flew up and alighted on one of the pinnacles and sang a little song, in which I thought he said, \u201cI was here seven hundred years ago and watched the whole business from the laying of the foundation to the capping of this spire which is the highest in Old England!\u201d We have was a little bird that was a man- watcher, and it is no wonder that with such a reputation the robin holds his head high and throws out his red chest as a professor of human history.The Christmas, or December 1954 issue of the Ayrshire Digest (of the Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association of the United States) has just come to hand.Including the cover pages, \"it is comprised of 220 pages of edi- \u2018torial material and advertising.The editorial section comprises a wealth of information about the Ayrshire iin not only the United States but in Hawaii, South Africa, Guatemala, Finland, Mexico and Canada.In the latter instance, the author is Gilbert MacMillan of Huntingdon, Que.\u2019 There is advertising galore surely enough to satisfy the US.Association\u2019s Secretary and the Editor and Business Manager of The Digest.However, it is not our intention to give here a review of that worthy publication.We.will therefore confine our further comments here to an article by Dr.E.C.Deubler, in the hope that same may be of interest to our readers.(By the way, we are frankly without any current district items to fill this column).Breeding Dairy Cattle The above is the title of the art- licle by Dr.E.C.Deubler, to which we have already made reference.It was originally given by Dr.Deubler at the Southeastern Pennsylvania Field Day, held at Redina Farms, Newtown, Penna.Dr.Deubler, is a Past President of the Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association of the United States, and he has a high standing es an Ayrshire breeder.However, while he dealt to a great extent with the Reding Ayr- o tnougn

two individuals.It is the fusing of bloodlines to develop the best qualities of both.No breeders can work in complete isolation.Your foundation stock has to be the work of others before you.\u201cRedina has one of the outstanding herds in the Ayrshire breed, and it is, in my opinion, a good example of what can be accomplished in a few years\u2019 time by the following five rules: \u201c1.Start with a few foundation animals of well-established bloodlines and breed them with the idea of producing your ideal dairy cow.mem, rar Round Byre ; Ry Frank Napier A .N, Ring \u201c2.Consider all known inheritable defects and desirable qualities, such as hard breeding, length of teats, size of horns, colour, milk production and type.\u201c3.Know and acknowledge the faults as well as the good points of your cattle.Some breeders cannot see faults in their own herds, but they are quick to see them in others.\u201c4.Never sell animals that most closely meet your requirements.You will have plenty of other saleable cattle.\u201c5.Maintain your herd free from disease.\u201d Rival Bloodlines In his next statement Dr.Deub- ler might quite well have made reference to the present day, instead of just the past in connection with jealousy and envy.He said: \u201cIt may be necessary to use bulls from several different herds to get outeross blood, and secure desirable qualities of other breeders.In the early days, many breeders were quite jealous or envious of their neighbours\u2019 cattle.They held back each other's progress by refusing to use \u2018Rival Bloodlines\u2019.I know of no better example of this than Mr.Roberts of Penshurst and John Valentine of Highland Farm.Both had good herds, but neither would use any of the other's cattle.It has since been proven by our -National (Ayrshire) President, Mr.Ashton, in the development of the Deichester herd, that both could have benefitted by using some of the other's Type and Production Dr.Deubler then went on to discuss, in a most interesting way, Selective Breeding; Health, no.one on his selective breeding programme; Milk and Fat Production, etc.Finally, he said: \u201cType is third on my selective breeding programme.Here you have the ideal cow to try for, and you can see where you are going.Type and production double your problem because your better type cow may or may not be your best producer and vice versa.Here you may guess which point to consider.By proper mating, you can increase production.Type is transmitted in about the same proportion.The Association has a score card which will help you the cold like other woods.Laminated birch turned too brittle in temperatures of 50 and 60 below.80 | did compounds of rubber and plastic.i Solid and hollow magnesium handles were tested.The solid was too heavy, the hollow not strong enough.A fibreglass handle with | an aluminum core proved too light, but a solid fibreglass compound \u2014 It's now being tested in the tield.The newly-designed toboggans, si- ¢ milar in shape to the familiar wooden toboggan, are designed to be pulled over relatively short distances and will be used by troops on patrol to haul food, ammunition and equipment and for rescue work.On the long haul, the Eskimos- type wooden sleds pulled by dogs will still be used.Nothing Specific For Quebec The federal government has nothing specific to put before Premier Duplessis as a solution to the Ot- tawn-Quebec income tax dispute, Prime Minister St, Laurent said after the cabinet's last pre-Christ- mas meeting, but he added: \u201cWe are certainly much further advanced than we were at the outset.\" \u2018He sald the government has been considering the issue ever since the Oct.5 meeting between he and Mr.Duplessia in Montreal and \u201cMore particularly\u201d since receipt of a letter from Mr.\u2018Duplessis.Kilbain KILBAIN \u2014 Guests at the home of Mr.and Mrs.Thos.O'Connor, over the holiday week-end, were

ail the breeds.\u201cIn conclusion and review \u2014 the three factors I believe are most Important in selection and development of your herd are: \u201c1.Health, \u201c2, Milk and Fat Production (with consideration given to environment and regular breeding).Type.\u201cIf these three points are given your undivided attention, you will be rewarded in direct ratio to your efforts.\u201d History Repeats Itself In his, as usual, interesting weekly column in the December 24 issue of the Ottawa Farm Journal, Gilbert MacMillan (of Huntingdon) briefly reviewed present-day farmers\u2019 problems, conditions, etc.In part, he wrote: \u201cThe best thing I think farm people can do at this time is just to take a quiet look at their own individual operations.Find out what is giving you the best returns for time and labour expended.See if there are not ways in which you can change your operations to give better net returns.\u201cI do not think it is a time for expansion, but rather a time to cut costs.Above all, don't get the feeling that things were never so bad before.Read the following and reflect a little: \u2018The children now love luxury.They have bad manners, contempt for authority.They contradict thetr parents and tyrannize our teachers.\u2019 \u201cThis,\u201d writes Gilbert MacMillan, \u201cis not a local school report in 1954, but the words of Socrates 2,500 years ago.\u201d .Mr.MacMillan then goes on to write: \u201cIt is a gloomy moment in history.Never has the future seemed so incalculable as at this time.In France, the political cauldron seethes and bubbles with uncertainty.Russia hangs as usual, a cloud dark and sinister on the horizon of Europe.All the energies, resources and influence of Britain are sorely tried and yet to be tried more sorely.\u201d \u201cThis is not a report of 1954,\u201d says \u201c3, in type selection.It evaluates the most essential features, and is used Mr, MacMillan, \u201cit appeared in Harper's Weekly on August 10, 1857.\u201d He added, however, that no arrangements had been made to meet the Quebec premier during the \u2018Christmas holidays for further discussions on the issue that arose when the province Lmposed its own income tax.The Quebec tax amounts to 15 per cent of the federal tax and Quebec demanded that it be fully deductible from the federal levy.Federal law, however, allows only à five-per-cent deduction.In his letter, Mr.Duplessis offered a possible solution.\u2018The terma of his proposal have not been made public, but it is understood Mr.Du- plessis agrced to abide by a prov- inclal; tax revenue ceiling if the federal government will allow the 13-per-cent deduction.Cabinet Holidays Canada's seat of government is almost bare of cabinet ministers during the holidays.#rom Prime Minister 8t.Laurent right down the line, at least 13 members of the 20- member cabinet are out of the Capital.But most could return within a ew hours to meet any emergency.Many

system in British Columbia.Resources Minister Lesage, announcing the investigation, said it will complement studies being made by the international joint commission on the power potentialities of the Columbia river basin which reaches into Canada and the United States.It has been estimated, Mr.Lesage said, that several billion kilowatt hours of additional power could be produced annually by a diversion from the Columbia to the Fraser.The diversion would be made at the Columbia's \u201cbig bend,\u201d where the northwest-flowing river turns south towards the US, border.Seven miles from the bend is Summit lake, origin uf the Eagle and South Thompson rivers.Water diverted to the fake would flow down them and into the Fraser.Accident Desths Auto accidents in Canada killed an estimated 1,082 persons and injured 25067 in the first six months of 1954, the bureau of statistics reports.No Canada-wide comparative figures were given for the same period of 1963, since they were not available from Quebec, which was not then reporting on a quarterly \u2018basis, But the bureau sald its total of 717 deaths and 18,894 injured for all provinces but Quebec compared with T14 deaths and 19,999 injured in the first half of last year.New Czech Mindater A new Czechosiovaklan minister to Canada has arrived in Ottawa.He is Bedrich Hruska, first minister from that country to Ottawa since

withdrawal of the Ottawa Senators from the loop had forced him among the teams for the remainder of the season.The first of these double-headers, said Mr.Slater, will take place this week-end.On Sunday afternoon, January 2nd, Shawinigan Cataracts will meet the Royals on Forum ice.That very same evening, at 8.30 p.m., Shawinigan will travel to Valleyfield where they will meet the Braves in a regular QHL encounter.There will be many other doubleheaders added the league prexy but \u201cI cannot issue the official list until it has been approved by club own- elty in the Quebec Hockey League.Royals staged such a performance \u2018with a game in the afternoon and a Arena that same evening.The event was most successful from attendance viewpoint and hockey game.It is hoped that these chances will be beneficial to all concerned, especially hockey fans who are or will be accustomed to such performances by their favorite hockey stars in the Quebec Hockey League.Next week Valleyfield Braves are again idle until Thursday, January 6th, when they will meet Montreal Royals at Valleyfield Arena at 8.30 pm.It is not yet known whether Royals or Valleyfield are scheduled for an afternoon

December 19th,.| when she was refuelling her stove.The victim is Mrs.Daniel Bertrand, of West Street, Huntingdon, and on\u2019 this Sunday afternoon she took a pail of coal and poured coal from it onto the fire.Unknown to her, | someone had used the pail for some oil of some kind and as she poured \u2018the coal onto the fire oil poured out with it and the stove exploded.The flames came out from the ash pit and caught Mrs.Bertrand's clothes on fire.She rushed out of the house and some neighbors noticing her plight, rushed to her jassisfance and rolled her in the snow to smother the flames.How- | ever, Mrs.Bertrand suffered severe burns, but refused to go to the hospital until Christmas Day.The delay did not improve the case, but Mrs.Bertrand is coming along as well as can be expected under the circumstances.Dr.George Lefeb- vre attended the victim on her arrival at the hospital and she is still confined there.Mrs.Bertrand was burned all down the right side of her body, her arm, hip and leg.She also suffers from poor eyesight and probably failed to notice the oil on the bottom of the pail.\u2014{ Family Affected by Coal Gas Fumes The family of Mr.and Mrs.Leon Beaudin

their homes or visiting at other points.\u20140 Christmas is the time when folks feel prompted to remember the sick and shut-ins.Consequently the Patterson Nursing Home was one of the places well remembered.Several groups of children sang carols for the patients and & number of societies and private persons sent baskets of goodies which were distributed among the patients.Needless to say the

Page 1) \u201cThe mortality from pneumonia and influenza in 1954 was also ex ceptionally .fevourable, being well below that in 1968, the record for which was adversely affected by outbreaks of respiratory disease in the early months.\u201cAlthough the death rate from the principal communicable diseases of Childhood\u2014scarlet fever, diphtheria, whooping cough and measles\u2014was already unusually low in 1953, the current year showed continued improvement,\u201d the statisticians point out.\u201cFurther reductions in both infant mortality and maternal mortality were also achieved, the rate for the latter now being below one per 1,000 live births.On the other hand, some increase in mortality from poliomyelitis is indicated for 1954, although the death rate remains at a low level.\u201d During 1954, Canada had an ap- preciahje decrease in the death rate from heart diseases.This relatively favourable record was due in part to an absence of respiratory disease outbreaks, which usually cause premature death in impaired lives.Mortality from nephritis and drom diabetes also showed some reduction.The improved mortality occurred in the face of an increasing proportion of aged persons in the population, The cancer mortality record for Canada in 1954 was not much different from that in the year before, when the death rate was at a level of 130 per 100,000.For the first time, the number of deaths from cancer and allied conditions may exceed 20,000.The Canadian record for accident fatalities was much better in 1864 than in 1953.The experience of Canadian Industrial policyholders of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company indicates an improvement in motor vehicle, home, and industrial accidents.\u201cThe rapid economic development of Canada in recent years provides exceptional opportunities for further improvement in the health of its people,\u201d the statisticians comment.\u201cAdditional benefits will be derived from advances in the medical and allied sciences, the spread of medical services, the growth and extension of public health activities, and the continued rise in the standard, of living of the Canadian people.| According to present

requested to notify the police that they have been called.They are also to notify the police of the scene of the accident.It Is not always the need to know of the accident as much as it is to prevent
