S. Reid, formerly of Lucknow, took an active part in the Agricultural Society, the Library Board and other* village, activities. His example . of service has been followed by subse­ quent managers, among whom have been, in later years, W. H. Dawson, now manager at Tjllsoriburg; W. T. Douglas, who left there in 1934 to take charge of the bank’s office at Orillia, and R. D. Brown, who -suc­ ceeded him. „. The occasion calls to mind the ] varied banking services that existed in the„ earlier days of that commun- -opened/in ^E&e.*year 1877 -and /wasr that of J. H. Mathews'and Company, which operated in Miss Braden’s building. They ; were succeeded \four years later by jKittridge Brothers, ■ who wete really'the men behind the word “Company” in the; former or­ ganization. Then came W. B.

Tis­ dale sold out to Mair and Smith they tp Gillies and Smith, the latter, to Gillies and Company who operated • from 1897 until 1905, when ill health compelled Dr. J. Gillies ' to retire. The former Sovereing - Bank then purchased the.*%basjness but went into ' liquidation s.omp three ' years Tn 1911 came the Morons.

A plan for the reorganization of Silverwood Dairies Ltd., and 1 its subsidiary companies was brought before Justice Fisher at weekly high court in London, Saturday and ad­ journed. because three interested parties filed objections. His lordship said he would hear more "argument on the cAse at a later date. Under the proposed plan the par-' ent company would take over the liabilities and assets of the subsi­ diary companies i.fi the extensive® Silverwood chain Sof. dairies. . Also . there would be certain changes in the financial set-up of the company.

Andrew night last., There was. a. great deal of cheering, and.the famous song. ‘‘Alouette” which has been sung just- prior to taking the vote since Con­ federation echoed- through the Cham-1 ber for the " quarter-thour jit* takes to gather, the Members in for the vote. ' The Conservative ^orty •_ voted in solid block against/it; .;all6 other par­ ties, including .Miss: Macphail and Hon. H. H. Stevens voted jin favour.. There Was not one dissenting Lib­ eral vote, from ope side of the Do­ minion to the other. The pact is: how going through' the final, stages be? for the Committee of Ways & Means each item being debated , before being passed. This means that a majority of the Government, must be. in the Chamber at all times as the. Conser­ vatives are registering their objec­ tion to each and every item. If it takes as long: to pass the remaining items as it has the few already pas­ sed, we will be here until next September. *’ The next point of greatest inter­ est to me whs the first meeting of the Agriculture Committee, held yesterday. (Thursday)i. All members, were present. The House has direc­ ted this Committee to . investigate' the increase in price of farm mach­ inery which has taken place since the lowering of the tariff. The Lib­ erals moved the following resolution: “that this Committee is of the Opin- ionthatnoadvanceinthepriceof agricultural implements should be put into “iffect pending consideration" of the subject matter of the order of referepce, namely, the consider­ ation of tlie high prices; of agricul­ tural implements for 1936”. All members voted on this resolu­ tion and the first division; took place on straight . party lines. I might say here that a Committee such /as this is not supposed to vote nor show, political leanings; However, the Liberal Members, together with, Miss Macphail and the C.C.F., voted in favour of the resolution arid the Conservatives voted against it. The contention that the companies would only be aggravated by such a resolu­ tion was given as the reason for the latter vote. However, the balance of >the com­ mittee feel that if the companies de­ sire to co-operatp they will immed­ iately lower their new firice list to ^s-wmpleted ’at /east. The Conservatives also state they feel this committee should riot inter­ fere in business; but knowing that the time of year is approaching when farmers will be purchasing their new implements it was decided by the majority of the Committee to ask the companies to assist the farmers .by lowering their prices, ‘ The .Committee is apparently go­ ing to make a thorough investiga­ tion into all phases of manufacture ing costa, ever watchful of the argu­ ment that the companies will place before .the. Committee in regard to the heavy overhead expenses, which we feel were of their own making in days'past and should not be consid­ ered at this time. ’ A Post,. Office Bill came before Parliament in connection with sett­ ing a fixed mileage rate fo; rural route mail carriers. However, as this is a money bill, and would entail an increased expenditure of $10,000,- 000. the rules of the House, and would not allbw a private member .to present * it, so it was ruled Out of Order. The subject will come t up again when the Post Master General presents his estimates for consider­ ation. A Civil Service Bill was also pre­ sented and debated upon. There is a great deal of dissatisfaction with the appointments made by the Civil Service Commission in the outside Service and many Members feel the small appointments in the riding should be made by* the Member. However, this Bill was talked out by the Opposition and was not given second reading-. - No' doubt amend­ ments to this Act will be made' in the not too distant future., Ottawa, March 13, 1936. lest, proved enjoyable./ Mrs. P.
