This young lad was born without a right arm
_but Easter Seal funds have given him an artificial
arm and will train him in its use. He's no different
than any other six-year-old boy—he loves clowns
and fun and laughter and with proper care and
treatment he will grow up to have a useful. and
happy life. Each Easter Seal contribution is used
to help such children as this. There are more than
16,000 crippled children who are relying on the
people of Ontario to support the 1963 Easter Seal
Campaign.

Aubrey C. Doucette
Aubrey C. Doucette, Seattle,
Washington, in his 55th year,
died when he fell from a small
boat while fishing salmon in
Shilshole Bay, on Wednesday,
March 20.
Earl Doucette, 168 Queen
Street, Clinton, received word
that his brother had rented a
small boat at noon and had put
his own motor on the craft and
headed , into the bay to fish
salmon about 2:30. The boat
owners were notified that one
of their boats was traveling
in circles out in the' bay with
no One aboard. -
The Coast Guard patrol was
to the scene in minutes and
recovered Doucette from the
water and the rescuers applied
mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on
the swift trip to shore but Dou-
cette was dead on arrival at
Ballard General Hospital.
Aubrey was the second son
of the late Mr. and Mrs. Jacob
G. Doucette, Clinton. He was
a farmer in Saskatchewan till
1,935 when he went to Seattle
and sailed for a number of
years. Before the war he mar-
ried and was a pinball mechanic.
Doucette is survived by his
wife; two stepdaughters; one
sister, Mrs. Grant (Ruth) Lind-
say, London; four brothers,
Earl, Clinton; Donald, Bruce-
field; Stanley and Ira, Wind-
thorst, Saskatchewan.
Pallbearers were two broth-
ers, four brothers-in-law.
Funeral service was held
March 23 and there was over
300 floral arrangements and
1,000 people paid their respects,
After the funeral the body
was cremated:
held cattle for further .feeding
because of the stir prising popu-
larity of heavy top finished
steers last fall?
Now we seem to have too
many of these top oattlo. With
the price of second grade .cattle
selling so close to top we might
do well to market unite a num-
ber .of these ..cattle sooner than
we intended. This too would
cut back the supply of beef
and would strengthen the mar-
15et accordingly.
I wonder if . farmers will take
steps to solve their
problem or will -they follow the
example of one of the popular
political parties which proposes
to solve the dairy problem and
overcome the surplus butter
problem by providing incentives
for the production of cheese
and SKIM MILK powder.
Perhaps I shouldn't be critic-
al, A ,500 batting average for
politicians would be something
of a record. Perhaps we should
try electing a few statesmen.

Last week Co-op Insurance
Association held their annual
meeting for the London Divis-
ion, I ..suppose I could tell you
of the amazing success and
growth of this organization
which had its origin in the Fedy
eratien Of Agriculture and was
developed and became a fact,
through the work of the Farm
Forums,
It is an inspiring example of ,
what people can de for them
selves when they co-operate
rather than compete. if you
want details just look up a fin,
ancial statement,
The feature of the program
was a panel discussing the
pi•oblem,of the young male driv,
er. This group . makes up 19
percent of the drivers but has.
27 percent of the 'accidents.
More than that, the accidents
of this group are more serious.
A. member of the Junior
Farmers stated that he felt the
reason for the bad record of the
young male driver was his fail-
ure to realize his responsibility.
Handsome New
Suits and Topcoats

Many of these young drivers
have their own cars and feel
they can do as they like. Acci-
dent records show that there
are fewer accidents where these
young drivers use the family
car
I wonder if this indicates that
the acceptance of responsibility
on the part of parents is re-
flected in the young driver?
It has never seemed. reason-
able to me for a parent to pur-
chase a car for a son then re-
fuse to allow the son to drive
the family car.
This young Junior Farmer
also felt that the girl friends
could do a good deal to im-
prove,:.the driving habits of the
young male driver if she took a
dim view of the show-off driv-
ing.
In commenting on the sug-
gestion that some refund of the
high premium paid by this
group be made to the driver
who celebrated- his 25th birth-
day without a claim the Junior
Farmer stated that this could
make quite a difference on the
percentage but probably would-
n't improve the worse drivers.
And now to change the sub-
ject, we have been told that
there is an over supply of hogs •program will be in charge of

could do a good deal to correct
their error by marketing the
hogs at lighter weights.
Unfortunately some farmers
have fertilizer bills and seed
bills which have to be paid by
the sale of a fixed number of
pigs.
The difference between the
returns for minimum and maxi-
mum grade A weight is between
eight and nine dollars. Of ne-
cessity some farmers will have
to put their hogs to top weight
if the bills are to be paid.
However those farmers who
are not in a financial corner
could make a real reduction in
the pork supply if they aimed
at 140 pounds dressed weight
instead of the more popular
160 pounds which has been giv-
ing us a 154 pound average
dressed weight for quite some
time.
A drop in dressed weight of
10 pounds would reduce Ontario
pork supplies by 400,000 pounds
per week. It would be the
quickest way to remedy the
price situation.
Beef supplies too seem to be
somewhat more than adequate.
I wonder how many farmers
