cluded $89 million under the
agricultural prices support act;
$140 million under the freight
assistance scheme for feed grain;
annual budget of $88 million for
the federal department of agri-
culture.
In addition, . he pointed out,
Huron has received $9,215,000 in
family allowance ,payments to
7,300 families; and old age
security p a y rn e n t s totalling
$5,000,000 received by 2,700 senior
citizens.
Agree On Policy
Mr. McLean said most of the
points in the PC farm program
had been inaugurated by the
Liberal Itarty.
In rebuttal, Mr. Cardiff charg-
ed: "It's no use having a policy
if you don't make use of it."
Ile charged.. that the Liberals
had allowed the: price of eggs to
drop to 26 cents a dozen and
didn't start buying 'eggs under
their support plan until Cardiff
and other members criticized
the minister in parliament.
Cardiff praised the• work of
both the Farmers' Union and.
Federation of Agriculture. "If it''
hadn't been for the work of
these two organizations, farmers
would have been in worse
Shape."
Most of the farmers who par-
ticipated in the discussion fol-
lowing the speeches• complained
about young people leaving the
fariti, low prices, imports of
competitive products and credit
restrictions.
Gordon Hill, Varna, fieldman
for the union, presided.

Charles Tomlinson: Mrs. Inez
McRoberts, . teacher at S.S. 12
Clsborne, coached two entries for
the competition.
Crowd Likes Youngsters
One set which received special
mention from Miss Armitt and
special applause from the crowd
was the grade one group coached
by Mrs. R. D. Jermyn, vice-
principal of Exeter school.. "11
I had to judge on audience ap-
peal, this set would have been.
right at the top," said Miss Ar-
mitt.
Even though their form wasn't
perfect, the younsters square-
danced with such enthusiasm and
energy that they caught the fan-
cy of the crowd. Lions officials
requested the young group per-
form. at the senior competition
in the evening and again . they
drew plaudits from the audience.
Commenting .on the entire ju-
venile competition, Miss Armitt
said: "I haven't seen nicer
turned -out sets in a long time."
She was impressed by the pro-
gress most of the chidren had
made for their .first competition
and urged them to continue prac-
ticing.
All of the sets, except the Cor-
bettLierury one, began prepar-
ing for the show when competi-
tions were announced in April.
Elmer D. Bell, QC, and W. G.
Cochrane shared emcee duties
for the contest.

High in the ranks of those lat-
ter-day Satan who cater to,

the advertising men. If that

my word for it, Just pay a visit

Shopping used to be a leisure-
ly, pleasant part of daily life for
women. It was a hangover from
the open market of ancient times.
At the grocery store, they met
their neighbours, exchanged re-
partee with the grocer, ,1`iched
the meat, tasted the cheese,
squeezed the bread, thumped the
melons, prodded the chickens and
sniffed the fish. Above all, they
chewed the fat. '
* * * ..
To -day, shopping is a grim or-
deal. The only things the women
can get their hands on are the
vegetables, and there isn't much
joy in pinching, thumping or tak-
ing a bite out of a carrot. Where
their grandmothers dipped a
hand into box or barrel to taste
or feel, they worriedly read la-
bels. or peer perplexedlyinto a
vast, white, gleaming mortuary
called a meat counter.
*
From every shelf, in every col-
our, they are shouted at to
"hurry, be quick, hasten, grab
me, buy more, family size, spe-
cial deal's No wonder they scutt-
le about furtively, snatching up
packages and dropping them like
hot potatoes ,into their shopping
carts. Everything spells out
speed and greed: mini, rice, in-
stant toffee, pre-cooked ham,
ovenyeady chicken, ready -mix
cakes, quick-frozen fish. As a
result, they buy twice as much
as they need 'in half the time
they should;
* * * *
Then, instead of friendly, mu-
tually -suspicious tallying of the
bill with the grocer, they hurtle
into a line-up, the grub is whisk-
ed into bags, the cash register
rings out its staccato symphony
and they find themselves out in
the street, a vast bag in each
arm, and only the vaguest idea
of how much they spent.
You'll have to excuse me now.
My wife wants to know whether
I want instant coffee or jiffy
cocoa with the piece of pie (in-
stant fill, ready -mix crust) for
my midnight snack. Got to save
time if I want to read my book

Appeals For Co-operation
Mayor R. E. Pooley made an-
other appeal to the public for
co-operation regarding the dog
situation. "The people will have
to learn to co-operate with the
town and their neighbors in con-
trolling their dogs, otherwise
we will have .to take drastic ac-
tion,"
"It's the citizen's job as well
as our own to control :this situa-
tion," he said.
Some councillors thought it
would be a good idea to import
a dogcatcher from London to
get rid of animals running at
large, Clerk C. V. Pickard was
asked to write London author-
ities to determine the cost of
such a move.
Council took no action on .a
request for a grant to a new
treatment centre for crippled
children in London. They will,
however, consider the appeal at
a later date.
