Holds Meeting
Mrs, G. Elliott was hostess at
her home for the February meet-
ing of the Seaforth Women's Insti-
tute, with Mrs. G. Kerr acting as
co -hostess. The roll call was an-
swered with the name of a coun-
try in the A.C.W.W. and give its
location. There are 30 countries
represented in the A.C.W.W. with
a membership of six million wo-
men. Mention was made of the
Women's Institute in the Yukon,
who had sponsored a fall fair last
year with a large showing of vege-
tables, home baking, etc. This
showing of vegetables was very
remarkable as the perms frost is
never far below the surface at any
time.
The president, Mrs. Harold
Hugiil, presided for the business.
The minutes and correspondence
were read by the secretary, Mrs.
Leonard Strong, and the treasur-
er's report given by Mrs. Ross
Gordon. Thank -you cards were
read from Ruth Anne Wilson, Tuck-
ersmith Council and employees
and Mrs. Dale Miller. Mrs. Grum-
mett was appointed public rela-
tions . convener for South Huron
District of the Women's Institute.
Plans were completed for the
birthday party to be held at the
Huron County Home on Feb. 15
for those celebrating birthdays in
February.
Mrs. R. J. Doig presided for the
program and introduced Mrs.
Grummett, who commented on the
motto, "Let the other fellow talk
occasionally, you can't learn much
listening to yourself." Mr. James
Doig, of the Seaforth Branch of
the Cancer Society showed slides
on cancer with much valuable in-
formation shown.

WINTHROP WARRIORS BATTLE
TO DEFEAT ATWOOD 7-5
Winthrop Warriors outscored At-
wood 7-5 in a closely contested
WOO Intermediate hockey game,
played in Seaforth on Tuesday
night.
Winthrop opened the scoring in
the first period when Don McClure
flashed the red light. Atwood ral-
lied and scored two goals, to lead -
2 -1 at the end of the first period.
In the second period Atwood scor-

marketing and something should
be done about this. Mr. Honey
informed the meeting that the pro-
posed marketing scheme sugges-
tions will be released about the
first week in March. He felt that a
good job could be done in the sell-
ing field and there shouldn't be too
many between the seller and con-
sumer. The next 10 years belong
to the young man, as he has a big
part to play, whether the future
in the cash crop and dairy field is
a success or failure.
There needs to be an educational
program for the young man. Train
him in the field of marketing.
Must Watch Machinery
In discussing prices, Mr. Gear
referred to labor incomes being
low. He pointed out that all were
in competition and each individual
must produce as cheap or. cheaper
than anyone else, The farmer who
produces an average crop, raises
cows and pigs to net $3,000 to
$4,000, will gradually improve his
livestock, whereas the farmer with
too much machinery is gradually
losing money.
In the dairy industry the habits
of the eating public affect the situa-
tion somewhat, for last year more
skim milk, powders and evaporat-
ed milk were produced than in the
past six years. Production of but-
ter at the present time does not
meet market' needs in Ontario.
There may be new products devel-
oped in the dairy industry. Spe-
cialized pr(e:ucts to Britain must
be of. exceptional quality, such as
cheddar cheese. Britain today is
asking where cheese is made and
who are the milk producers.
Watch Quality
The farmer must smarten up on
quality produce if he expects to
receive premium prices. In the
next 10 years the farmer must
simplify cost production and ad-
here to more stringent quality con-
trols.
There is no great change in the
technology aspect. The farmer
must have t1 a will -power to con-
troI machinery operations and look
at capital investment. He must
take a more realistic outlook on
the whole farm operation over the
next 10 years.
Following the close of the panel
discussion there was aishort ques-
tion period.

ed once before Jim Strong found
the mark for 'Winthrop. Atwood
scored two more fast goals to take
a 5-2 lead by the middle of the
period. From this point on Win-
throp held the opposition off the
score sheet with Hugh Flynn, War-
rior's goalie, turning in a fine
game. Tom Love and Ray Powell
scored for Winthrop, but . Atwood
still led 5-4 at the end of the
second.
When the third period was less
than 15 seconds old, Tom Love
scored his second goal of the night,
to tie the score at 5-5. Winthrop
pressed the attack and was fin-
ally rewarded when Winston Pow-
ell scored. Winthrop carried the
play in the final frame and scor-
ed the clinching goal as Winston
Powell took a pass from Bob El-
liott and scored his second goal of
the night, to give Winthrop a 7-5
victory.
This was the final game of the
schedule for Winthrop, with play-
offs to start in a week or so. The
management of the Winthrop team
would appreciate it if the hockey
fans in the district would come out
and support the team in the play-
offs, as the boys are playing an
exciting brand of hockey.
Lucknow 4, Winthrop 3
Winthrop Lost a close game in
Lucknow on Friday night, as Luck -
now scored a goal with less than
two minutes remaining, for a 4-3
win.
The game was hard-fought all
the way, with the breaks all going
against the Warriors. The Win-
throp goals were scored by Bob
Elliott, Bill Kerr and George Love.

Cranbrook Women's Institute
The monthly meeting of Cran-
brook Women's Institute was held
in the Cranbrook Community Cen-
tre on Tuesday evening. The roll
call was answered with a Valen-
tine verse.
The meeting was in charge of
the president, Mrs, Clem Steffler.
Plans were made to have a Schnei-
der supper in the Community Cen-
tre on April 6. Arrangements were
made' to do a quilting on Wednes-

tem &t the former shoe factory
property, committee chairman Ned.
C. Bell said in his report. The
compressor was too small for the
Job.
There were no families on relief,
Reeve W. N. Ball, chairman of
that committee, reported.
The report of the police depart-
ment will be referred to the police
committee. Received shortly be-
fore the meeting, council agreed
there had not been time to con-
sider it properly in committee.
A report by Councillor Flannery
concerning a dinner of the Mid -
Western Ontario Development As-
sociation which he had attended as
Seaforth representative, prompted
a discussion as to the merit of
the organization. There was con-
cern that membership was not a
requirement in order to benefit.
Stratford and Goderich, while not
members, gained valuable public-
ity in the organation's promotion
material, when at the same time
Seaforth and other member towns
were not mentioned. Discussing
contemplated developments in
town, Councillor Cardno, chairman
of the industrial committee, said
nothing was hI sight. Reference
was made to an option for the pur-
chase of the Queen's Hotel having
been renewed 'aed that it was un-
derstood that it was intended to
proceed with renovations.
Await OWRC Action
The sewer program is at a stand-
still pending a decision by the
OWRC and the Municipal Board as
to the extent to which the town
may benefit from the Federal
sewer subsidization program. Dr.
J. 0. Turnbull, committee chair-
man, said it had been agreed that
the OWRC act as agent for the
town in negotiations. There was
hope that approval for an enlarged
program, to include a main peri-
meter line as recommended by the
town's engineering consultants,
might be obtained.
Dr. Turnbull said he realized
there was a delay, but felt in the
end it would be for the best.
"We haven't been able to get
anywhere dealing with the several
agencies on a piecemeal basis.
This will give the OWRC a chance
to see what can be done."
Mayor Daly suggested the com-
mittee indicate the sewer work
planned to the Department of High-
ways so that sewers and paving
work would be co-ordinated on
Goderich Street.
There was no activity at the
park, Chairman Carl Dalton said.
It was agreed the committee would
give consideration to establishing
a play area for older citizens east
of the Memorial in the park. Mayor
Daly said the area' might include
a place to sit and rest, as well as
facilities for shuffleboard and
horseshoes. It would serve in the
summer, as the euchre club in
the Town Hall served in the win-
ter. Many of the members would
take an interest in such- a project
and help develop it, he felt.
Council approved purchase of an
advertisement in the SDHS year
book at $25, and a grant of $150
to the Chamber of Commerce to
permit it to carry on with its pro-
gram to erect signs on Seaforth
streets.
Approval was given a bylaw to
provide for the borrowing of up
to $150,000 from the Canadian
Bank of Commerce.
Council approved an amendment
to the schedule of salaries as con-
tained in the annual appointment
bylaw. Under the proposed sche-
dule, which is to be effective Janu-
ary 1, 1961, salaries were adjusted
as follows: D. H. Wilson, clerk -
treasurer, increased from $3,100 to
$3,200; Harold Maloney, street fore-
man, from $2,920 to $3,020; A.
Pryce, street department em-
ployee, frim $2,470 to. $2,670; J.
F. Scott, fire chief, from $300 to
$350; part-time assistants, clerk's
office, from $1.10 to $1.25 per hour.
