By the time this has gone to

been won and the final prizes
drawn in the Merchants'

This year we had the added at-
traction of the Spot-The-
- Merchant contest. The public
response in all instances has
been most, gratifying. Maybe
we'll look into the possibility of
Murray Gaunt MPP for
Huron-Bruce . asked W.
Newman, Minister of the En-
vironment, in the Ontario
Legislature recently, if he is
considering legislation dealing
with disposable packaging and
the problems it creates in the

Memories and Christmas are
a partnership which grows
stronger with each passing year
of our lives. Happy memories of
childhood, even happier ones as
growing .up brings the extra ap-
preciation of giving and
sharing, sometimes a memory
tinged with sadness as we
remember the missing place at
the .table.
There's a short paragraph by
the well known author Pearl
Buck who expresses this
thought 4o adequately,
Christmas is the quiet that
descends, when guests are gone
and we sit by the fire, tracing
memories in the flame. It's that
one still moment before
someone says, "Remember
when " add we all do. Then
we are grateful and glad —
both for the memories and for
those with whom we share
them,

To you all, the age-old wish
made all the more sincere by
repetition — A MERRY
CHRISTMAS. ,

Mr. Newman said he would
make "some comments at the
time I table the report." He an-
nounced that the report will be'
tabled shortly.
When Santa or one of his helpers digs into the bag of toys all children gather around to see
what they are getting this Christmas. The children are students at Holmesville Public School
taking part in this year's chrlstmas Concert. (staff-photo)

The Hall board is having a
Bean money high
Ontario white and yellow-eye
bean producers received record
payments for their 1973 crop,
yp more than $16 a hundred-
weight from previous years, ac-
eording to the Ontario Bean
Producers' Marketing Board
annual report to August 31,
1974,
Final producer payments for
white beans totalled $26,02,4
hundredweight on s'ales
grossing $13,806,422, Producers
of yellow-eye beans received
$26.83 a hundredweight on
sales totalling $85,436.
Prior to the 1973 year-end,
producers had been receiving
an average of $10 a hundred-
weight,
Bean board secretary-
treasurer John Greenslade said
the record return was the result
of a limited world supply, par-
tly caused by dry weather and a
poor crop in 1973.
Mr. Greenslade said the
higher payment also covers
substantially-increased produc-
tion costs, including fertilizer
and chemicals.
Income to the board from
licence fees and other sources,
"to August 31 was $101,393
while expenses totalled
$147,832. The balance on hand
was $9,912,271, but a final
payment to the producer of
$6.26. a hundredweight for
white beans and $6.07 for
yellow-eyes was made from
that balance on November 1. ,
The working capital of the
board at the year end (August
31) was $50,103.
The bean board is self-
supporting and receives no
government subsidies.
