Ladies of United Brethern Evangelical Church catered to 255 persons. Brief speaches were made by Jerry Montgomery, agriculture representative for Huron; Bob MeKercher, president of Huron Federation of Agriculture and Gordon Grigg, field man and secretary of the Huron Federa­ tion. The guest speaker, Roy Jewell, farm editor for the London Free Press, who was introduced by Gordon Gregg. Mr. Jewell based his address on “There Have Been Some Changes Made." He gave many percentages of different countries to show how the population had fox' increased production. In 192G the agriculture auth­ orities hoped to double the food production 'in 10 years. Actually the food increase was only six per cent while the population in­ crease was 12 per cent. Mr. Jewell stated that Indus-' try is very closely connected with farming. Everything is mechanized and that goes back to industry and thus they are linked. In closing he stated it is im­ portant to be good neighbors in the community, in the county, and all ovei* the world. This would be a deciding factor in peace, he said. Officers elected for 19 52 were: President Delbert Geiger; vice- president, Carl Oestricher; dir­ ectors, Ross Love, Percy Camp­ bell Lloyd Hendrick, Gus Roche, Pete Masse, Henry Shilbe, Har­ old Willert, Cliff Pepper, Leon­ ard Merner and Arnold Merner.

An oil burner has been install­ ed in the United Church which seems very satisfactory. Cat Under Tow Dogs on a leash may not be news, as it is a common practice on the streets of this town, but when a cat is seen at the end of a thong, with a becoming young lady on the upper end of the tether that could be a story. Such a sight was witnessed on Queen St. on Wednesday. The cat a well nurtured white Per­ sian, seemed quite content to amble amicably on its way shep­ herded by its mistress.

China is not asking this question in words but her “wait and see" attitude is rnak- ig her meaning as clear as the oriental mind may be made clear to the west. Hence the debate ■among the western nations regarding the admission of the Communistic forces in China tothe councils of the United Nations.. Should Com­ munistic Chinese forces be held aloof? Should they be admitted to discussion and in this way a serious, honest effort be put forth to discover what the Chin­ ese are thinking about? We can do little in the way of being reconsiled with an oppo-r meat till we understand him. To understand the Chinese we must know something of their history. Further, by association with them and by discussing affairs with them we come, 4n sure to understand their thinking. Some of our best thinkers believe that they see signs that indicate that China is coming to see what the western powers are China’s friends rath- a mea- modern western Financial Writer Discusses Can Crop Co-Operative Discussing the newly - formed Can Crop Co-Operative, Welling­ ton Jeffers, Financial Editor of The Globe and Mail, gives some details on the proposed functions of the organization. “. . . . the Vegetable Market­ ing Board has obtained a char- of November 9 put it this way in explaining why a 1‘ per cent increase is being asked in the fee on gross crops returns each yeax' to go to the Vegetable Marketing Board; ‘Whatever the budget needs within the 1 per cent, it will be a small amount compared with the returns which the grower receives.
