From recent news articles I
luive learned that the Post Office
Department needs to enlarge its
office in Clinton. Apparently this
could be most economically and
conveniently done by adding an
addition to the back.
This property is owned and occ-
upied by a service station belong-
ing to a large oil company. It- has
been stated that this land is not
for sale and that seems to end the
discussion.
Has the Post Office Department
not heard of the right of "eminent
domain"? If they haven't they are
'a long way behind Hydro and high-
way departments or gas or tele-
Ohone compainies.
When our forefathers wrested
this land from bush at the rate
of a few acres per year they had
visions of owning a property they
would be proud to hand over to a
long line of descendants for time
to come. Finally they received
their deed from the Crown,'giving
them all rights to the land subject
to the right of "eminent domain".
That is the Crown very gener-
ously, with one hand, gave a chunk
of ground covered with bush and
with the other retained the right
to take it back, at any future date,
Recently a story of feline love
and devotion touched a' sympath-
etic chord in the writer.
All winter, two cats, a large
tiger and a smaller tortoise shell,
have been coming to the back door
at "The Hut",
The mistress wasn't too kindb,
disposed towards them as they'd
try to sneak up on the birds
at the feeding station, But her
uncle saw that the table scraps
Were put out each night.
One cold morning a saucer of
bread and milk was offered the
pair: They lapped up the milk,
but refused the bread, so it was
considered that they weren't too
hungry,
Several times on a very cold
night, the pair looked in the win-
dow while, dinner -was in Trogress.
One felt sorry for •them but hesi-
tated about, taking in stray cats.
Always, they came together, The
WA Meeting
Mrs. Wilmer Broadfoot presided
for the March meeting of the Wo-
man's Association held in the ,•ch-
urch on Tuesday. Mrs, J, Caira
and Mrs. L. Eyre had charge of the
devotional' period. Mrs. Eyre read
from John 13 and Mrs. Cairns
spoke on the "Triumph of Love".
Mrs. D. Triebner gave the sec-
retary's report and Mrs. Eyre re-
ceived the offering, Roll call was
answered by naming "something
I gave up for Lent".
Tuning of the piano was left in
the hands of the church commit-
tee. A thank you letter will be
sent to Mrs. J. K. Cornish for her
donation of a vacuum cleaner. A
thank you note from William SCott
was read by Mrs. Berry.
$10 will be sent to, the March
of Dimes.
Miss Margaret McQueen play-
ed a piano solo. Mrs. George Clif-
ton conducted an ' Irish contest.
Lunch was served by group 3.
Next meeting will be in the
charge of Group. 4. Mrs. T. B.
Baird and Mrs. George Clifton Will
be in charge of the devotional
period. Roll call will be "an East-
er Verse".

regardless of the transformation
you have worked over many years.
By right of "eminent domain"
your property, which you say you
own, could "for convenience and
necessity" be expropriated by the
government and be handed over to
any public utility or private com-
pany or, perish the thought, to any
party "heeler" without any obli-
gation to compensate.
Hydro and highways apparently
haVe a blanket right to exprop-
riate. Notice need not be given
to the land owner. Telephone and
-pipelines are required to give two
weeks notice.
This is done by Hydro and high-
ways when they wish to cross farm
land. Why then is the Post Office
Department unable to proceed in
the same manner in the case of the
service station? Could it be that
expropriation isn't popular when
the victim is a large oil company
rather than an individual farmer?

large -tiger walking with .dignity
while the .smaller tortoise shell
skipped back and forth and around
him in a decidedly' "kittenish"
manner.,
This whetted the curiosity of the
residents at "The Hqt". The same
enquiry was made of all the neigh-
'pours:. "Do you knowwhose cats
they are?" Finally, the riddle of
why two cats which looked well
fed came begging at the kitchen
door, was. solved,.
Tortoise shell is a young fe-
male not a year old. She belongs
to a citizen„ who does. not permit
her to enter the house.
