into containers, some tee impressed them that if it ever occurred again it may lead to more serious consequences.The boys promised that it would not happen again.Two letters were read stating that they contained cheques for substantial grants to be used for administration purposes in accordance with regular practice.Some discussion took place with regard to the correct time for the renewal of contracts for.the teachers and it was felt that: as there may be some disruption\u2019 in the school routine during building operations, that the teachers should be made aware\u2019 of this.: | The plans of the Science Room and the Household Economics kitchen were shown.These contained the proposed layout of these rooms and a letter from the architect suggested that any.changes be marked in order that! the whole of the plans may be completed.\u2018 Dr.Willis felt that as this was, new and they had no real idea of how the arrangements would work out in actual practice, some members of the Board should | visit other similar schools to find out how they were operating.It might be found in this manner that this experience would be a practical guide in arranging these rooms in a more satisfactory manner.This might also prevent changes having to be made after the rooms had been completed.The Household Eco-; nomics kitchen will have to serve in connection with the cafeteria, or a separate arrangement might have to be made in order to facilitate the movement of those who would be staying for lunch.He thought that there may be 250 or more to be served in a very short time and it was imperative that this operation run as smoothly as possible at all times.By visiting other schools, it may be found where faults could be remedied before the arrangement had been made of these rooms.This would save expense in the end and work toward a better program when the time came to operate the rooms.It was decided that some Board members and Dr.Willis would visit some other schools in the very near future with a view to seeing the cafeteria in operation and how the arrangements worked out in the rooms con- cerned.Dr, Willis also informed the what would be going on.Dr.Willis suggested that a meeting of the members of the Board, the teaching staff and a certain number of representatives of the taxpayers from each area in the school district, be called and the matter discussed.It would then be open for those present to make suggestions as to the best method to be used while the building is in progress.It was decided to follow this suggestion and letters will be sent out calling such a meeting for the very ncar future.It was also felt that 1! other people had suggestions to offer that they might do so at this time.Such suggestions could be passed along to members of the Board, or to Dr.Willis.\u2018 Mr.Russell Miine appeared before the Board and stated that he had the opportunity of securing a larger bus whereby he might consolidate the two runs he now has.He wanted to know the feelings of the Board in this matter in order to arrive at a decision as to whether to make the change.Several members of the Board questioned Mr.Milne as to whether there would be a lower price in the case of operating just one bus instead of two.Mr.Milne said he did not see how the cost could be lowered as he would still be covering the two routes and the same number of miles would have to be trav-' elled and that under the present conditions, the routes were not paying him too well.The commissioners felt that Mr.Milne would be saving cost on the insurance, the gasoline and upkeep of one bus and the cost of one driver, as he would operate the bus himself.Mr.Milne did not see it this way.The Board therefore felt that if any change was | made that tenders should be called and Mr.Milne should put in a tender at that time.Mr.Milne did not feel that this would be right nd if that would be the case then he would continue as at present with the two routes on the present contract.He only wanted to know if the Board would be satisfied if he Experience informs us that the first defence of weak minds is to recriminate.\u2014Samuel Taylor Coleridge THE NINETY - FIFTH YEAR Annual Meeting Of Ladies\u2019 Auxiliary Canadian Legion The Ladies\u2019 Auxiliary of the Canadian Legion, Branch 81, Huntingdon, held their annual meeting on Thursday, January 2nd, 1958, in the Legion Hall.The President, Mrs.McGill, opened the meeting in the usual manner and 12 members answered the roll call.A letter was read from the Chaiman of the Christmas Tree Committee, Montreal, acknowledging with thanks receipt of the gifts of Auxiliary to this year\u2019s Christmas Tree.The Treasurer, Mrs.Middle- miss, read a splendid annual report.Mrs.Cosgrove, Chairman of the Overseas Committee, spent much time getting the cards and gifts ready for the armed forces.Gifts were sent to 14 servicemen, three servicemen\u2019s wives, one servicewoman, one veteran in hospital and four children overseas, Cards were sent to 28 servicemen in Canada.The Sick Visiting Convenor, Mrs.Roy, was very busy during the year sending gifts to members who were ill.24 gifts were sent in all.The Membership Committee was proud to report that five new members had joined during the year.Mrs.Perkins, Convenor of the Refreshment Committee, read her report for the year.She was busy {rom time to time during the last twelve months.The Ways and Means Convenor, Mrs.Willock, worked hard during the year and read a good report.The President thanked the Officers, the Committees, and all the Members for their wonderful support during the year.The meeting adjourned and delicious refreshments were served by Mrs.Cosgrove and Mrs.Middlemiss.\u2018 Good Public Relations Mean Much To Business Mr.Alex Hainey, plant superintendent of the Electro Metallurgical Company, Division of Union Carbide Canada Limited, Beauharnois spoke to the Rota- rians on Monday, December 30.Subject of his topic being \u201cSome Thoughts on Public Relations\u201d.The thought expressed was that public relations of a favourable character were a great asset to any individual or company.Mr.Hainey stated that the general purchased a larger bus and operated the two routes as one.If they would not be satisfied, then he would forget the idea and leave things as they are.No other discussion took place and matters will probably remain as they are.The meeting adjourned until January 23rd.Barn, Cattle, Machinery Lost In Fire At Howick At Year's End Fire caused death and destruction to livestock and property at Thorn Brae Farm, How- ick, Que., on Sunday morning, December 29th., bringing the year 1957 to a sad end for the Anderson familles who live there.Wilburn, son of Willie Anderson, owns and operates the farm, and the two homes are situated east of the barns, on the bank of the Chateauguay River.The owner finished the chores about 10.20 that morning and at 10.45 left, with his father, for service at Georgetown Presbyterian Church.About 11.40 Ross Brown passed the farm and saw no signs of fire.A few minutes after 12 noon, Mrs.Anderson (Marian Craig), saw smoke and called for the Howick Fire Brigade.Then she hurriedly carried the 5 weeks old baby to the other home and returned for the other two litle sons.By this time Hendrickus Schroeders, a Dutch neighbour, who works with Robert Tolhurst, next farm east, arrived.He rescued 4 milch cows before other help arrived.Billy Wright across the river had seen signs of fire and rushed to the scene and on his way notifying the owner, at the church.The service was about to close, so immediately many went to help.The telephone operator had done a wonderful Job and neighbours had arrived.Men wor furiously to rescue the livestock.but smoke, and the usual difficulty of getting cattle to move from a fiery building, hampered operations.They saved 14 milch cows, 5 calves, and 11 young cattle (30).Lost were 12 cows, 1 bull, 5 yearlings, 3 calves and 2 horses (23).Within minutes the barn was & flaming mass, and the houses were threatened, the wind being from the west.Furniture was removed from the old home, but both were saved and one implement shed.The corn binder, grain binder, threshing mill and sleighs were destroyed.During the afternoon more than 300 bus.of oats were of which may be used.The fire brigade from How- ick, about 20 men and a booster p, did a wonderful job.much greater loss of livestock and property.After the fire, Mrs.Anderson found a pair of dark eye glasses, so put them aside for the owner.A letter came from Mrs.A.Wangh, Central Park West, New York City, asking if the glasses had been driving by, saw the fire, and came in to help.Neighbours had noticed this lady carrying household furnishings to safety.The letter contained a message of sympathy and a cheque for $5.to be used for the new baby who might be deprived of something due to the great loss.This kindly gesture is typical of our neighbours to the south and was deeply appreciated by the Andersons.Kind friends offered stable room for the rescued cattle.The Ander- sons, who come from a line of independent and industrious farmers, are busy planning to rebulld.Everyone joins in wishing them good health and success in the future years.had been noticed.The Wanghs | BROTHERS public reaped much

is being applied for at the present session of the Quebec Legislature, by the Town of Huntingdon.The changes suggested are that the zoning not take place until after the present term of the office of the council has expired in February, 1959.At that time an election will be held in the three wards and to be for a three year period.The amount of $100,000 to be borrowed without resort to referendum, was cut to $25,000.It is expected that the Bill will be getting consideration in due course.DIE IN AUTO mr re Ad THE GLEANE LEADING ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE DISTRICT OF BEAUHARNOIS HUNTINGDON, QUE.,

show his appreciation of the good majority he recelved in the Ormstown end of his constituency.In doing this, he will have earned the ap- preclation not only of the board of governors of the hospital and of all those concerned with its administration, but also of everyone who contributed to bring the campaign up to the handsome total It had reached before the government contribution was announced.The campaign goal was seb at iL minimum of $80,000.00, including what support might be realized from the provincial government, and it was felt by those In authority that the reallzation of that sum would be a great lachlevement even though it did \u2018represent a bare minimum of the amount needed to pay off the hospital's capital Indebtedness and to complete the nurses\u2019 residence.But the public itself responsed su generously and so spontaneously that over $70,000.was received In cash and pledges up to last week; truly a magnif- Icent response.The pcople In the areas

M.P.P.The member for Chateauguay County, Mr.Maurice Laberge, announced this week that the Provincial Government has made a grant of $40,000.00, extending over four\u2018ycars, towards the recent financial campaign of the Barrie Memorial Hospital for capital! funds.Prior to his election in June,: and just as the campaign was commencing, Mr, Laberge pledged his utmost effort to obtaln a substantial sum from the prov- |Incial government, and this pledge has now been fulfilled.During the campaign in this end of hls constituency, Mr.La- berge assured the voters that he] would took after thelr interests, and he has made an excellent beginning by securing added government support for an in- saitution which so well deserves \u2014 it.The public, in the arcas served by The Barrie, have demonstrated In a magnificent and practical manner their own high regard for that hospital and, in expense entailed was more than paid back to the treasury of Canada through the increased income tax, within a 10-year period.Consequently it can be said that for every dollar a government spends on having students better educated it will result in that student paying back to the government during his or her life- {time in the form of Income tax, four :times as much money as was invested in providing the student with the university education.The boys and girls who come from families that are looked upon as either wealthy or well to do, are not necessarily the best students at college, or make the best financial \u2018and responsible citizens.It is gen- \u2018erally agreed that the boys or girls from poorer families, who really have to work hard to receive such an |advanced education, become the best students and financially successful and outstanding citizens of the land.(We must therefore
