FAST BECOMING of interest in Ontario,
Is the amazingly low cost and the wide extent
of the protection offered to the farmer employer
by the Workmen's Compensation Board. The
Workmen's Compensation Act, passed originally
by the Provincial Government in 1915, made it
compulsory for industries to make payments to
the Board, and receive in return accident cover-
age for their employees. In 1941 this coverage
was made available to farmers, but not an a
compulsory basis.
Within the last few months the rate at
Which the farmer employer could obtain cover-
age was reduced from $1.50 to 75 cents per hund-
red dollars of payroll. The farmer is asked to
file three simple forms with the Board, and keep
a written record of his payroll throughout the
year.
Persons on the farmer's payroll may be his
wife or other members of his family, provided
they receive a stated wage, and this is recorded.
In addition to members on the farmer's payroll
being covered under the Act, the farmer em-
ployer is also covered within the limits of $1,200
and $4,000.
In the event of death of the employee, his
wife benefits by receiving monthly payments
the rest of her life, and also payments for the
children under 16 years of age. In the case of
partial or complete disability, the victim re-
ceives compensation in the amount of'75 percent
of his total stated wage prior to injury.
In any case, the farmer employer is freed
from any possibility of suit from an injured em-
ployee, since under the Workmen's Compensat-
ion Act, an employee loses all right of suit.
All particulars concerning this manner de„
employee and, employer coverage can be had -31.

ON THE CHRISTMAS SEAL, used by the
Tuberculosis Association for the prevention
of tuberculosis this year the artist has com-
bined a double-barred Cross and a lighted
Candle.
The double-barred Cross was chosen as
the sign of the tuberculosis workers.
The ancient Feast of Lights, is emblema-
tic of the flames kept burning at the Greek
shrines of old,
It is a happy combination for the Christ-
mas Seals. It is one of the marvels of our
century, that as far as tuberculosis is con-
cerned, the lights are going en, all over the
world. When this 20th century opened, tuber-
culosis was the leading cause of death in
every country. Then pin-points of light began
to show here and there, and in some places
now, have become a brilliant glow.
One of the points of light which has
served to light many other torches was the
Inexpensive Protection
first Christmas Seal Sale in Denmark in 1904.
Since then, in at least 60 countries, the fight
against tuberculosis has been strengthened by
Denmark's example.
In Canada, we have been fortunate in the
amount of light which has been shed upon
tuberculosis. For that light, we have to thank
tireless physicians and men, of science. We
have also had encouragement from under-
standing men and women, who had the wel-
fare of the community at heart. We owe our
thanks to those everywhere, who were willing
to devote time, energy and money in the
erection of sanatoria, in the establishment of
clinics, and the operating of mobile X-ray
units.
For all this, we owe more than thanks;
we all have an obligation to carry ethe torch,
until the prevention of tuberculosis is entirely
realized.
A way to share in keeping the light burn-
ing is at hand—we can buy Christmas Seals,

The "Honor Roll" that was pub-
lished in last week's News-Record
contained the names of several re-

four score years, From this list
was inadvertently omitted the
name of George Freeman, better
known perhaps as "Grandpa Free-

with whom he makes his home.
Mr. Freeman is ninety-three years
of age and is no doubt the oldest
