Ontario Plowmen Met Ploughmen’s Associa- meeting on February The Ontario tion in annual 5th received an invitation to hold the next International Match in Hal- dimand County, and the Directors ’’decided to accept. The location will be the Unity Block, 2| miles north west of Cayuga. The president, F. G. Fuller, London, presided and discus sion throughout the day dealt with ploughing, rules and regulations and match management. The noon .lun cheon was addresed by Hon. Duncan ■Marshall, Minister of Agriculture. The new Board of Directors con sidered a request from the Minister that the Secretary and Managing Director be an officer of the Depart ment of Agriculture. J. Lcckie Wil son has filled the position since the Association was organized and since his retirement from the Department a year ago has continued to direct the affairs of the Ploughmen’s As sociation. The Beard of Directors were not enthusiastic about any change, but finally compromised by making J. Lockie Wilson President for 1935. Geo. Waldie, Stratford, was re-elected Vice-President and J. A. Carroll was made Secretary and Managing Director, Clark Young, Milliken, continues as Treasurer. Ontario Association Agricultural Societies An important change was made at the Ontario Association of Fairs and Exhibitions 'Convention. Acting on Notice of Motion given at last year’s Convention, the name was changed to the Ontario Association of Agri cultural Societies. The former name had been used since 1905, previous to which the Canadian Association of Fairs and ’Exhibitions had functioned. The his toric forerunner had been the Agri cultural and Arts Association which gave leadership in a Provincial way for about half a century. It was or ganized in 1846 and ceased 'to func tion in 1S95. The purpose of changing the name of this Convention was to bring the name of the Provincial Body more in line with work being encouraged for the local Agricultural Societies. The objects as outlined in the Agri cultural Societies (Act provides for several lines of work, one of which is the holding of annual fairs. For thirty years the Provincial Body has been concerned chiefly with the conduct of fains and other agricultural subjects received little attention on the program of annual Conventions. The change of name forecasts a modification of program. Wife Put Kruschen in His Coffee He could not uderstand why the headaches he had been subject to suddenly ceased. His wife him, and he at once sat down wrote the following letter:'— “I am 62 years of age, and since I was a boy of ten years, 1 was suject to very bad headaches.

Re cent earthquakes have turned up gal leries and recesses which may lead to rich excavations under the joint en terprise of the (Carnegie Institution and the Government of Honduras. Already, around Gopan in Western Honduras, they have found evidence of a civilization existing at the time of Christ which was not far behind the most advanced civilization then in the world. Staircases, statuary, articles designed in gold, land indica tions of some astronomic knowledge have been discovered.
