The Guelph Winter F.air is known all over Ontario as ‘The Farmers’ Show' where neighbor meets neighbor and friends meets friends. In other .words it is- a friendly show. The dates for 1937 are from November 30th to De cember 2nd inclusive. GUELPH WINTER FAIR Rev. R. M.

A clergyman made the statement the -other day that if the ^churches were to close up for six months that it would bring people to a sense of the churches’ value. The supposition need not be considered. Churches have no intention -of closing. They are doing a pretty good1 job. It is their function to keep the public conscience keen. It they do this bit of work, the powers that be soon will ease the shoe that pinches the public foot.

If we were to leave our far-flung territories practically de nuded of inhabitants it would be difficult to resist, ethically, the claim that we should make available to -other land-hungry nations some of those territories which we were unable or unwilling to use, and very, difficult indeed to protect ir and when another nation con sidered the moment opportune to try to acquire them f-o-r herself.” ♦ ♦ ♦ * ♦* EXTEND HYDRO IN EXETER AREA More Tinin 200 Now Ponsuwrs Ad ded this Year Work is progressing on extension of rural hydro in Exeter area with li& miles built so far this year and two miles under construction to make 20' for the year. The system will then have no less than 90 miles of line and more than 800' users. The new consumers, explained Kenneth J. Lampman, head of both the village and rural ..systems, in clude not only those on the new lines but additional customers on the previously constructed 70 miles and on trunk lines such as that be tween Exeter and Hensall. While the majority of users are farmers, there are 17'5 in Zurich and 110 in Dashwood villages The ter ritory extends from Lake Huron easterly for 2-0 miles or more and for 10 miles from north to south and does not include Exeter itself. The fact that 22 pei’ cent, of the total lines were constructed this year and that 200 or 25 per cent, of all customers have joined since last growth, January indicate a healthy Mr. Lampman said.

He said that he had dreamed that he was his own executor, and as such he found that instead of leaving his family in the comfortable circumstances that he thought he had, he discovered that eight different creditors had prior claims against his estate before his wife and children could receive a dollar. First came the Succession Duties Department, putting its seal and exacting a tax on every asset that he died possessed of. Then came Inspectors from the Income Tax Department; next, doctors, nurses, hospital and undertaker’s bills. Then when the lawyers inserted the regular legal notice to creditors in the daily press, certain current bills came in, all representing prior claims against his estate. The result was that before he could distribute a dollar to his wife and children, the estate had shrunk to alarming proportions. The policyholder was a conscientious man, and when he realized that his dream was an actual picture of his affairs, he got in touch with the Confederation Life Association and bought additional insurance. It was on that occasion that he related this story to our representative. • • • • Why not figure up now just what your wife and children would have in case they were deprived of your guidance and counsel? The Confederation Life Association would wel come an opportunity of serving you by fur nishing information of a definite nature which may enable you to study your requirements more carefully. *3* Confederation Association Office?.

True, she is doing her very best/night and day, to re-arm herself. Should she be attacked she desires to be able to do a good job of defending herself. Her record in t-his re spect lhas been, foi’ many a century, a most creditable one. -.She has been snubbed a number of times recently, but, should differences be ironed out, it is not in the temperament of her people to bear malice. No-, Britain, is not cunning. Double-dealing is not her way. In -fact, she only seems to be deceptive to those whose ways are peculiar. She believes in making changes ‘ gradually. SJie reaches her goal by a series of approximations. But she has a goal that anyone may see. It is the obviousness -of her aim and the forthrightness and downrightness of her methods that bewilder ttbose who do not’believe in her and who do not study her history. ■(»******* HAVE PATIENCE who do the day’s work iget hot under the the slow way Britain and the other nations Let’s admit without argu- Sometimes we folk collar when we learn -of have of settling international disputes, ment that it would be a fine thing for all the nations to settle down to being good boys and girls.

That has one dispute is settled, It cannot be otherwise. ******* JUST ANOTHER A royal commission consisting of all manner of brain trusters and bigwigs of one sort and another has been appointed to look into the matter of inter-provincial reflations and the relations of the various provinces to the federal authorities-. There is no -call for such body. Two years from now or -one year from the date -of the report of the commission, the report will be obsolete, for by tihat time the Dominion and the provinces'“will be one year older and new contingents and problems will have emerged. There’s no doubt about that. . . In this connection we -ask, as we have asked before, what are out- members of parliament for, if not to do the very work this commission is appointed to do? Members of parliament can col lect evidence even better than the commission can collect suclh evi dence or such facts, for they are intimately related every day of their lives with the circumstances into which the commission is appointed .to make inquiry. Tlhe commission has already told the people of Canada that their duty begins and ends' with fact-report ing and that the responsibility for making any changes in the way governmental things are carried, on rests with parliament, the very body tihat we insist should gather all the facts about Its duties. It may be said with more truth than poetry in the assertion, that any wideawake member of parliament knows more now about the work handed over to the commission than the average member of the commission will know when he has yawned his last lawn as he signs the report that will cost this Dominion an unconscionably large sum of cold cash. But Canadians love to have it so and to be impressed by pomp and fuss. By .the way, where did that big Stephens’ Commission, or something, get us? Toronto F. J.
