STATION ST. PHONE 433 IL—-I—"—-— --------------V Elimville Forum Discusses Food Bank The. Elimville North Farm Forum met at the Im’ue^of Mr. and Mrs. L. Elford W “ three members prese^A -'t for discussion was, a Food Bank?” * I We think that surp; 4 food! products should be distributed t to the needy people of the world especially in cases of famine. The world food bank looks like a good plan if it can be worked satisfactorily. If we help to im­ prove their techniques in agri­ culture, the population will in­ crease as a direct result and therefore there would still be a food shortage. We believe it is a matter of educating the Asiatic peoples to smaller families as educated people usually have the smallest families. Thus we think the popuation would be lessened and the food problem would also be lighter. Next Monday Evening is collec­ tion night and will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank­ lin Skinner. The topic for dis­ cussion will be, "What has I.F.- A.P. Accomplished?” Jones: “Haw do yoxx spend your income?” Jonhsoxi: “About 30 per cent fox* shelter, 30 pei’ cent for clothing, 40 per cent for food, and 20 per cent for amusement.” Jones: “But that adds up to 120 pel* cent!” Johnston: “Don’t I know it;” Car, Truck Collide Hear Kippen Mr. Archie Parsons received a broken nose and is suffering from shock and bruises at his home here as a result of a colli­ sion one mile south of here on No. 4 highway.
