(News-Record Photo) Apparently the "tractor Strike” has come to an end, It no doubt has attracted the at­ tention of quite a large num- her of consumers and may have accomplished more than ap­ pears at the moment, When the consumer pur­ chases dairy products and re­ members . the dissatisfaction of the farmer he no doubt will wonder Where his money is go­ ing- For some time there has- been a demand for a department of price spreads in our- federal government, This tractor dem­ onstration may be successful in adding sufficient pressure to get action. In my experience the con­ sumers, particularly in the large centres have the idea that the farmer is the recipient of the increase in* price ‘that has been taking place in food prodlu'cts. It just isn’t so! Bread went up 2c a cently, Jf the flour bushel of wheat went up by the same amount the farmer would receive over a dollar more for each bushel. I understand the price of wheat for bread flopir has gone up a little but only a few cents. Oat wheat is up about 13c per bushel this year, Where did the resit of the dollar go? No doubt wages in­ creased but I doubt that the in­ crease would be more than an­ other 13c Which still leaves. 74c unaccounted for. A department op price spreads is badly need­ ed, There are other little inci­ dents that need explaining. I like chocolate milk and When it is available I choose it rather' than a soft drink. Now I find that I am buying .“choco- .. . . ■— . „ , .... Hemingway lafe drink”, seems similar fo chocolate rnfflllc but certainly isn’t in the same quality class and should he much cheaper but-isn’t. Who ij!s getting the lift? Here- again I’m quite sure that most consumers feel they are buying* chocolate milk but they are getting jipped. Even if they* know it What can they do about it? Finally I happened to be in a lunch room recently 10c plus lc' tax for drink. Since When did a duct ‘become taxable? , under 20c at that, Was toils a special tax for the benefit of the lunch room? What can We do about it? Is right what you can get away with and - wrong what you get caught at? Report Centennial Report IQO7 by JOHN W.. FISHER luU/ CENTENNIAL COMMISSIONER Oldtimers Whip ofl-d-’tiraers took complete con­ trol of the game as they scored 11 runs in the last three in­ nings. Leading the hitting attack for the old-timers were Larry Pearson with two doubles, a triple and single, Cam Mac­ Donald with a triple and ■ double, Bob Collins, two singles, Ron Livermore, Jim Livermore, Bob Pearson, Pat Langille and Paul Pickett with a single each. Leading the hitting paradle for the mlidgets were Don Bart­ liff with three singles' and a double, Butch Fleet, a triple, and single, Allan Howes, a single, Larry Pickett, a single, and Mike Graham, a single. ■The starting line-ups were as follows: OLD-TIMERS: Bob Pearson RF, Larry Pearson OF, ,Cam MacDonald P, Laurie Col- quihoun C, Bob Livermore S'S, Jim ■Livermore 2B, Bob Collins L’F, Pat Langille 3B, Ron Mc­ Kay 3B in 6th, Ron Livermore IB, Paul Pickett 3B in' 8tih, Bruce Collins -LF in 9th. MIDGETS: Allan Howes 3B On Sunday afternoon, July 31, the so-called Clinton old- timers defeated the Clinton 'Legion midgets, 16-9. The old-timers were built around the. 1964 All-Ontario- Midget "D’ Champions with a few other old stars. The coach­ ing strategy of Doug "Chief" Andrews and Norm “Poodle" Livermore spelled the differ­ ence between Victory and de­ feat for the old-timers. The midgets jumped on Cam MacDonald for two runs in the first Inning on singles by Allan Howes, -Gary Fleet, Larry Pick­ ett, and Don Bartliff. The old- timers narrowed the gap 2-1 m the second' inning when Bob Livermore walked and brother Ron scored1 -him on a single. They took a 3-2 in the third when a booming double by Larry Pearson and two errors scored two runs. , At the end of the sixth, in­ ning the teams were tied 5-5.

I wish the Centerinial Com­ mission could buy a ticket and. th© travel fare for every person in ‘Canada.to see Expo 67 next year.’ But. I just don’t have the budget to do th’at. Millions of Canadians won’t gee Expo but most of those who can’t make lit to Montreal will be able to see some Centennial spectacular ’in the nearest city. Canada’s leading events are shared by all parts of the coun­ try? It could be a performance of the Canadian Armed Forces Tattoo, one of the largest spec­ tacles of liitss kind ever to- be pre­ sented in North America. It could be the touring Centennial air show with thrilling flying by the Forces’ formation aero­ batic team of pilots specially picked for the 1967 celebra­ tions. Those living on or near the coasts and waterways will be able to see impressive naval as­ semblies of the majestic shlfos of Canada’s forces and the navies of a number of countries. In major cities there will be dazzling performances on stage by top artists from Canada and abroad. There will be art shows ,and there Will be sporting events such as the Pan Ameri­ can games at Winnipeg and the Winter games in Quebec. Proposed international events in Canada next year include: a balloon race across the prairies; • world snowshoe-championships; a North American ski champ­ ionship meet and international . skli jumping competitions near Ottawa; an international show >at Abbotsford, B.C.; interna.- tional motorcycle races near Toronto; world hydroplane . championship races at Valley­ field, P.Q.; and a water skiing World championsap meet at Sh’erbroolte, P-Q-, to mention a few. The point I make ‘is that no / one who can’t afford that trip to -Montreal should be disap­ pointed about Centennial Year. In the realm of spectacular events there will be something No. 14 to. see in every major Canadian city. The small towns as well, with visits by the touring Centennial Caravans carrying fascinating ■exhibits of Canadiana and their own community Centennial events, will be gay attractions during 1967. For those ‘unable to leave their own homes — even shut- ins — the year 1967 will be a special one. With our coast to coast radio and television com­ munications of today all will be able 'to Witness or listen ■ to the great sporting events, see or hear Centennial performers, fol­ low the 4,000 mile canoe' race — in fact. they, will be able to enjoy many of the events I mentioned above by electronic means. The Canadian Broad­ casting Corporation, has great plans for Centennial coverage and so have the magazines and newspapers of Canada. It’s going to be a big birth­ day celebration and no one is going to be left out of the party. ■ There1 'Will .be something for everyone — young or old — to do, to see.' and to be happy about. Not the least important event to be happy about is that this young, vigorous country is moving into its second century of Confederation with a bright future ahead!. ------------o------------ BAYFIELD Mr. and Mrs. George S.

Reeve Speaks Out Reeve F. A. MacFadlden ad­ dressed toe assembly and elab­ orated on Council’s views’ as re­ ported earlier. He instanced the large quantities of calcium; laid on Tuylle Street as showing council’s interest m controlling dust but pointed1 out that ,if all residents would reduce speed when travelling the unp'aved streets, the dust problem would be greatly reduced. The Reeve said that, during the past few weeks, hffis store had become a "sounding board" y— ' .......111 ' ' the ‘sounding board" for all com- for people with complaints but he felt that few realized that although $56 was- collected in taxes on each $1,000 of assess­ able value, the council only had control of $1,750 of this amount and of a total income of $43,484 council controlled only 25%. The report of the Centennial, committee was given by Brig. Smith. The president in his address noted that membership fees were- late in many cases and stated that an executive meet­ ing would be held shortly to deal with this matter, to con-, si’der the possible purchase of the public school* and to revise association by-laws.
