toast to the ladies was pr osed
by PDDGM Garnet Iateles to
which Mrs, D. Andrews .suitably
replied, The toast to Graiad Lodge
was proposed by Mr, eralconer,
with Grand Master Obj nbers giv-
ing the response,
Two very pleasing "sopaps "Sylvia"
and `Smoke Gets en y It ; Eyes"
were sung by Mrs a:J. H: Mcl:`~night
with Miss Wiltse accompanying.
In his address, Grand">Master
Chambers stressed three ¢Dain
points; the Education Fund, the
C.F.rT. work and the Home in
Bar'rie, He pointed out that a
fund was available whereby child-
ren of members could receive
grants for university education.
Since the C.P. & T. work was• or-
ganized a few years ago, more
than $540,000 had been spent to
help those in need. Last year
alone $125,000 was raised for this
worthy cause,
He mentioned the Hospital Bed
programme which has commanded
respect all over the province, and
which makes beds available to
everyone regardless of race or
creed. The order maintains a
Home for the Aged in Barrie, and'
at present a badly needed wing is
being built" to this Rome, and to
date the niembbers of . the order
have contributed $47,000 to this
extension programme.
In closing his address Grand
Master Chambers stated "the
challenge facesus to Cherish and
preserve the inheritance we have
received from Thomas Wildey, the
founder of the Order on the North
American- continent, and we must
take immediate action to get these
principles into the hearts and
minds of all members—and into
the world".
PDDGM G. H. Jefferson expres-
sed appreciation to the Grand
Master for his address, stating
that he had got right down to the
grass roots in the facing of the
problems' of the Order.
DE* Fritzley spoke briefly and
extended warmest greeting of the
Sister Rebekahs.
Speaking briefly Mr. Falconer
then presented a handsome hand-
made travelling gavel to District
Warden Wilson. This gavel is to
get into each lodge in the district
at least ince during the term,
and it was . felt would thus en-
courage more visiting between the
lodges. Mr. ]falconer also voiced
appreciation to all who had taken
part or assisted with the evening.
One event which had been
scheduled to take place on this ban-
quet and which was not .able to
be done was the presentation of a
50 -year veteran's jewel to W. L,
Johnson, Clinton. The jewel, which
had been ordered had not been
able to be secured in time for the
meeting, and unfortunately, Mx.
Johnson was prevented by illness
in attendanqe at the banquet, This
jewel- will be presented to Mr.
Johnson as soon as it is available.

"I don't believe there is more com-
petitive Bidding now than under
the old system. There have been
more fluctuations since the Board
has been doing things."
Questioned about the salary of
the president of Canada Packers,
the reply from Grebb was that he
was in private business, and there
was no fight against him. Ques
toned about the $2 paid by pack
ers to truckers to bring hogs dir-
ect to the plant, Grebb stated he
had no evidence that this was be-
ing done, but if it were, it was
an, agreement between two people,
and "if .they're happy, so am. I".
There was talk of shrink, Parker
said "A hog shrinks three percent
a day until killed."
Though a predicted. "clash" be-
tween Bert Lobb and Theo Parker'
did not take place, Mr. Parker
,olid ask Lobb to answer the ques-
tion, "Why has McInnis not given
us the vote he promised us five
years ago?" Mr. Lobb replied,
"Who has asked for one?" and
said no one would enjoy a vote
more than himself.
•Certain farmers Complained that
they had never been asked to ex-
press their approval of the open
market plan. One said, "I didn't
have hogs that week, but I could
have had the next week, and yet
I was not asked."

Parker that the legislation under
which the eempulsory part of the

Cream Producers
Name S. Hallahan
1957-58 President
Simon Manahan,• Belgrave, was
named president of the Huron
County Cream Producers at the
annual meeting of that group in
the council chamber of the Town
Hall on Tuesday, James J, Elliott,
also of 8luevale, is vice-president.
Serving on the committee of the
producer -group are Hume Glutton,
RR 5, Goderich; Horace Delbridge,
RR 1, Woodham; J. J. ,Connelly,
RR 3, Goderich; Russell Bolton,
Dublin; Gordon Richardson, Bruce -
field; George Hetherington, Blue -
vale; Elmer Skinner, Centralia,
Secretary -treasurer is 3. ` Carl
Hemingway, Brussles.
" Chttek" Zook:head, fieldrnan for
the Cream Producers in this area
reported that there have been no
negotiations price -wise with the
trade, but there have been presen-
tations made to Queen's Park, and
several discussions have been held
with the trade regarding investi-
gation into the cost of processing
butter.
The Cream Producers Board,
also was successful, said "Chuck"
in having the cost of storing but-
ter, added to the sale price of
government owned butter, and this
resulted in a three to five cent
increase in the cost of butter.
This result was due, said the
fieldman, "largely to the efforts
of the Federation of Agriculture,
and to some assistance by the
Dairy Farmers of Canada."
He said that hopes were for .a
higher floor price for butter.
Resolutions were passed asking
foie legislation permitting the con-
trol of importing of butter oil; and'
to have the formula system fur-
ther developed and ,perfected so as
to arrive at a Mir floor price for
butter(and since the support price
system has been reasonably suc-
cessful, and it is necessary for ap-
plication of import permits, to the
impartation of butter, the meeting
expressed disapproval of setting
up an equalization fund by pro-
ducers.
men were called to a chimney fire
at the home of Tom Turner, on
the corner of Highway 8 and Con-
cession 16, Goderich Township. No
damage was reported.
The day before the firemen were
called to the apartment above
Merrin's Radio and Electric, where
a gas stove had caused some
trouble. And on Thursday, another
fire in Goderich Township, caused
the only real damage about
$1,000 to a tractor, owned by Don
Colclough, who lives on the Tele-
phcrne Road, Mr. Colclough had
filled the machinenewith gas, and
went into the house. When he
came out and started it, the trac-
tor caught fire.
