SMARTEST of all coats for'spring
seems to be the unfurred models that
rely on detail and cut. Many houses
this year are showing these models
and teaming them fith simple but chic
frocks. This one is of mustard yellow
and has decorative seaming to form
the yoke and pockets in a loop-like ef
fect. The coat is collarless, hanging
perfectly straight and boxy. The
seaming forms a yoke in pack which
dips down into a rounded line. The
dress is of matching yellow crepe and
has a brown leather belt,

"TOWNSHIP MEETING”
■ The farmers are going to organize.
That was the purpose of the meeting
in the township hall last night. I went
because, like everybody else, I feel
that- the farmers should be organized;
If the Associated Fleacatchers’ Union
of America can petition the govern
ment to prevent the users of spray
guns from exterminating all the fleas
and in so doing destroy theif liveli
hood, in the name of goodness grac
ious, why can’t we farmers have some
form of organization to point out a
few of the evils of the present day..
With three-quarters of the farms in
our township plastered with mortgag
es so that the only thing father hands
down to son is a mortgage which col
lects its five per cent, each year, it*
seems that there must come a time
.when a man has to stop taking a loss.
We don’ stop to figure up the loss, be
cause just as I said last week it’s a
lot easier on a man’s get-up to have
the money for a load of hogs in his
pocket and, pay a few bills with it,
than it is to figure upihat you’ve just
lost three dollars on each hog that
you’ve sold and didn’t get anything
for your work. ,

The second successful "pick-a-back” landing in
aviatipn history was made at the Macleod air sta
tion by L.A.C. J. C. McKeown, of Ottawa, and
L.A.C. L. A. Bolli, of Jasper, when their planes col
lided in mid-air as they were coming in for in
dividual landings. Neither pilot knew what had
n
happened until after they landed. Each pilot de
clared he “knew something was wrong” and fol
lowed previous instructions, cut his engine and
glided in—-not knowing they were locked together.
The first such landing was accomplished in Australia
by a member of the R.A.A.F. •
, (Copyright, 1941)
at the meeting, Looking around the
group that sat listening to the speak
er it was hard not to pick out the dif
ferent ones. They were all listening,
mind you, but from past experience
with them, it was sort of easy to make
a' good guess at what they were think
ing.
Ed, sitting up in the front seat, is
on$ of the “I’m agin it” type. ’He
made his money and retired right on
his farm, living by the” money he
makes for grassing cattle and dipping
ever so slightly into his interest mon
ey. He doesn’t want to see any or
ganization because*he might have to
pay something to if.
Peter, over in that next row, he’s
one of the “Let’s go slow” group.
He’ll argue all’ day about not jumping
into anything too hasty. That’s his
mainstay in life, as he consoles him
self that a man always makes mistakes
‘by jumping at conclusions. Of course,
it takes him so long to make up his
mind that he never gets anything done.
In the fg.ll he .figures over what am
ount of fall wheat he should sow and
the snow comes and he’s still figur
ing. In the spring-he does the same
thing until the season goes by and he
gets only a half crop in. He always
has a field that he wonders “whether
he’ll sow buckwheat,, roots or corn in
. . . until it goes by too far and then
he puzzles over the problem all sum
mer of whether he should cultivate it
to kill the twitch grass.
Joe, back, in the next row, he’s a
“Let’s get going tonight” man, Joe
is right for every idea advanced. Just
as soon as the speaker got through
Joe jumped up and he started talking
about the organization and he sailed
through that and he had the organiza
tion sitting on the door steps of the
Department of Agriculture and then
he had bonuses for all farmers and
the first thing you knew we were all
living in plenty. He does the same
thing at home. Let him read in a
book about a new kind of crop wheth
er it be soy bean or hybrid corn and
he’ll buy enough sfeed to plant the
whole farm and get all worked up
about it . ... . and the idea just dies
down leaving him with a loss,
Tom, back here, 'doesn't say much
in an open way but he argues with ev
erybody'within five feet of him with
his, “It won’t work" talk. First of all
it’s just propaganda, and then it’s been
started by the Government to sidetrack
the farmers, and, the next thing you
know he has it headed by the packers.
But just let somebody suggest that
he say something to the crowd and
he’ll mutter and swallow his cud of to
bacco and mumble that he hasn’t any
thing to say. ■ -
You see, it takes all kinds of peo
ple to make a township meeting.
