John E. Pepper and Arthur Chapman spent a few days in To- ronto and attended the Royal Winter Fair. (Continued from Page One) 11 licenses, but only for govern- ment outlets, and for private clubs. Don Southcott dis-associated himself with the Legal Control Committee. He asserted that he had it from Col. C. E. Woodrow, solicitor for the Liquor Control Board of Ontario the following: the fact that the board would es- tablish government stores in those municipalities where the council had indicated to them that they want government stores. The council may request that a vote of the people be held to approve a government retail store. And if a petition representing 25 percent of'the eligible voters and request- ing such a vote is presented to council then council must demand a vote. In the event of such a vote as outlined above, then a majority of three-fifths would have to be secured by the "drys" to prevent establishment of the stores. (In Clinton, the situation is re- versed. Clinton is "dry". There- fore if such a vote is brought on, then it will require a three-fifths —or 60 percent—majority by the "wets" ' to establish such a store). Mr. McKinley commented that this vote on the CTA would be the last chance for many people to cast a vote on the question. If it is repealed, then, he, for ex- ample, as a resident of Stanley, would have no vote on deciding if outlets went into Zurich, his near- est "shopping centre". Compared to Huron County, very little action appears to be taking place in Perth. The Perth CTA committee was organized only last Friday night. The Huron CTA committee was organized during the second week in Sept- ember. Coming events in Huron include a meeting in Zurich on Monday night, when John.

Yet, when the young girl broke the silence with her ques- tion, it did not sound irreverent. It was with mingled pride and understanding that I listened and watched this member of the Red Chevron (veterans who enlisted in 1914) and Lieutenant Commander in Canada's Navy during World War II, explaned to one of our newest Canadians, why it was un- likely the names of her parents would be listed in the second book. He was gentle and sympathetic, not a all impatient as one could expect a man of his stature might be uunder similar circumstances. Though it was my intention to relate this week, the story of how these two beautiful Books of Re- reembrante were created. It seem- ed prophetic to me, that there was no sense of country or racial heri- tage in the mind of the young girl. The beauty of the chapel, the color and artistry of the books, the, serenity of her surroundings seemed to appeal to her as a suit- able place to have the memory of her parents perpetuated. The fact that the books memorialized a time in history when her coun- try and ours were at war and that our aircraft had probably carried the bomb that had killed her par- ents, apparently had not embitter- ed her attitude toward her adop- ted homeland. I suppose it IS impossible for us adults to Maintain, the sirriplicity of the chilid Mind, unecurnbered by hatred and greed, resentment and suspicion, But it seemed to inc that / had been privileged to witness this exhibition of ,unself- consciousness on the part of the girl, her interest in the tale the man Beddoe told and his very touching reply to her question. It proved a challenge to my own thinking. T was not sorry I had come many hundreds of miles by rail to revisit the Chapel. Memory of this day would always remain a 'ono among my collection of ex- periences, The child's eyes were as blue as a May sky and she was not the least embarrassed when she re- peated her question, "What is that?"' Alan Beddoe, the man lar- gely responsible for the beautiful hand illumination of the two Books of Remembrance in the Peace Tower of Canada's House of Parliament, tried not to look too incredulous. He had been making a 'correc- tion in the first book of ' names commemorating those who gave their lives in the cause of human rights in the first war. He was unmindful of the large group of students who stood behind him watching the operation, until this 'teenager spoke to him. To a man who has spent twelve years of his Life designing and executing, or directing the execution of the beautiful pages, her question seem- ed almost sacreligious. But Alan Beddoe is a patient man. If he were not, the pages of vellum, with their uunique her- aldry and significant art, would not reflect the perfection they do. Quietly he turned to the young- ster and said in his modulated voice, "This, my dear, is the Book of Remembrance." But the child was not satisfied. She tried his good humor further, "Remem- brance of what?" "In this book and the second nook of Remembrance are the names of those who died in the two world wars," he informed her. "Then my mummy and my dad- dy must be there," said the girl. After some questioning, Alan Beddoe and I found out the young girl had emigrated to Canada from her native Germany only two years earlier. Her mother and father were killed in a blitz of Germany during the war and she had been adopted by an uncle be- fore he left to establish hirnself in Canada. She was reluctant 'to discuss her uncle too thoroughly and it took little effort on our part to picture hire as an escapee from Russian tyraMiy, I had stood in the Chapel of Re- mernbrance once before.

In Huron County, 825 growers will receive a total of $16,192, for 322,070 bushels of wheat grown. The cheques, 24,945 in number being mailed to producers of wheat, represent the unused por- tion of the 9c levy collected. The return on commercial wheat is 5c a bushel. At the year-end, the actual unused portion of the 9e levy amounted to 4.774c a bushel, however, the Wheat Producers' Marketing Board has agreed to make the amount an even 5c by using $28,000.00 from the reserve collected as licence fees. Under the Farm Products Marketing Act the licence fee is authorized to the local board for administration purposes and the expenses incur- red in carrying out and enforcing the Act and regulations of the plan; provision is also made for the local board to establish a fund in connection with any plan for the payment of any moneys that may be required for same, In the 1958 crop year, wheat producers in Ontario marketed 11,596,407 bushels through their local dealers, according to the re- ports forwarded by dealers. As the Wheat Producers' Board were obliged, according to the agreement, to purchase carlots of wheat from dealers when so of- fered, the 9c levy was used by the board to purchase wheat from dealers and to dispose of same. The board exported 3,253,005 bushels as wheat; 124,797 bushels were exported in the form of flour; 305,565 bushels were ex- ported as seed being sealed and tagged. The Wheat Producers' Board in their first year of operation was faced with the marketing of a recognized bumper crop.
