Harvey. His 40 years' experience has taught him many short cuts that not only make rose culture easy but improve the quality greatly. His instructions are simple and con- cise.

Times-Advocate, March 9, 1967 page 3 Raps 'conclusions' on U.S. capital him he was sorry they had wast- ed their time and money. However, he said they were on his list of 9,830 candidates for the senate. He said It was a good thing that the situation had been pointed out, but added that too many people were jumping to conclusions. "The conclusion isn't that itis bad," he said, "but it only means there is a situation we should study carefully to find out what harm or good it does us," Noting Canada would need $17 Continued from front page their tasks may appear menial, they played an important role. To illustrate his opinion, he noted that one man in the U.S.A. had decided, to work on behalf of the late President Kennedy and after the election was wondering Whether the effort had been worthwhile In view of the fact he had probably only affected the votes of about 50 persons. However, when he realized that Kennedy had won the election by less than .1 percent of the popu- lar vote, he realized that it was people such as himself — affect- ing a few voters here and there— who had helped secure the vic- tory. "Politics shouldn't just be a participant game where you choose up sides," Mr. Greene stated. "The party must stand for the things its followers be- lieve in. "It must be their party." He said the Liberals had al- ways been the party for free trade, but also what Sir Wilfred Laurier described as the party for social justice. "We don't think anyone can produce better than free men," he said, but the fruits of pro- duction must be divided more equally. Kinsmen host Clinton group Exeter Kinsmen hosted their counterparts from Clinton at the local Legion hall, Thursday. The guests were welcomed by president Gib Dow, and following dinner, each conducted a short business period. Ed. Hearn then introduced the guest speaker, Ed. Manning, of CFPL radio and TV, London. After a very interesting topic, questions were asked from the groups and a great deal of in- formation was gained. The speaker was thanked by Ross Dobson. Clinton president Dave Beattie extended a vote of thanks to the hosts and also to the Legion Auxiliary for the dinner they prepared. A FREAK He went on In his light-hearted manner to say he had a "certain freak value" in being the first agriculture minister from East- ern Canada in the last 5Q years, One member of his department had reported at the time of his appointment it would be easier to train Charlotte Whitton to play centre for the Toronto Maple Leafs than make Greene an ag- riculture minister. "That man is now working in our department in the North- West Territories and is doing a wonderful job," Mr. Greene mused. He also made reference to the present defence debate over uni- fication, saying it was going to be "a real dandy". During a recent trip he had to land at the navy base in Shear- water, and had feared they would have the runways rolled up upon learning a federal cabinet minist- er was to land. He said he got away with it by madly waving the Union Jack, adding he didn't know what would have happened to him had he displayed the new Canadian flag, billion every year for the next five years to create enough jobs for those coming in to the labor market, Mr. Greene said it was obvious Canadians could not gen- erate this money and capital had to come from outside. "The problem is in determin- ing the form that capital must take," he said. The Agriculture Minister con- cluded his talk by saying that as a man who has travelled across the country more than perhaps anyone else, he had found people from coast to coast wondering what all the talk about Canada falling apart was about. "All Canadians believe deeply in the future of this country and are willing to play their part in its future," he said. In introducing Mr. Greene, Ex- eter lawyer Peter L. Raymond stated the Agriculture Minister was a candidate for the Liberal leadership if the present Prime Minister retires. Mr. Greene replied to this by saying people should be careful in making such statements or he "may be back so far (in the Lib- eral benches) you'll have to look for me in the Ottawa River". The Agriculture Minister noted he had been in Huron when he was running for the leadership of the Ontario Liberal party and told those who had supported Dance to Kitchener caller One of the most active sporting groups in the area is the Exeter Promenaders, a square dancing organization. Saturday night at the arena, the enthusiastic dancers were led by a guest caller, Gerry Lavigne of Kitchener. Above, Lavigne, centre is shown with executive members Murray and Jeannie Lee and joint presidents, Kay and Jack Blair. -- T-A photo Seniors enjoy varied program Over 75 attended the Senior Citizens meeting in the Legion Hall Tuesday night with Joseph White as chairman.

The first question is that of the method of production, and whether or not the party should move farther to the left — or statism. "This question must be de- bated by you," he said. Mr. Greene said the most pre- valent question is that of Ameri- can capital in the Canadian econ- omy. He said the present debate and dialogue on this subject was a (great thing" and he was glad to be a part of the discussion to help determine which way the party should go. nied by Mrs. Harold Jeffery, concluding with a Centennial Ju- bilee Kitchenette band in cos- tume.

Invaders from the hills The funnier side of life was portrayed by a few refugees from the hills and the circus during the comic judging section of Saturday's carnival at the arena. The hillbilly at the left who appears to be ready to shoot or trap anything in sight is Bill Batten. Reg McDonald is the lovely lady and Mrs. Jack Fuller is the clown. At the right Mrs. Bill Batten, also from the hills, carries some of the necessities of early living.

Cook Bros., RR 4 Stratford, were awarded contracts for the supply of materials and con- struction of both the Van Steeg branch of the Aldworth drain and the Koehler drain. In each case their tender was lower than the engineer's estim- ate. The work on the Van Steeg drain will cost $14,493.00 and the Koehler drain price is $8,856.00. The tender of H. R. Litt Ex- cavating, RR 2 Thorndale, was accepted for the construction of the Cann-Mitchell drain. Their bid was $990, considerably lower than the estimate. William Watson, RR 3 Zurich, was awarded the contract for spraying of cattle for control of warble fly at 12 1/2 cents per head for each application. Price last year was 12 cents. The tender of Rosaire Bedard, Zurich, was accepted for the supply of warble fly powder at $4.95 per 15-pound bag. The gravel contract was actually awarded at a special meeting of council. It went to R, H. Jennison, Grand Bend, at a price of $2.05 per cubic yard. He is to supply the gravel and spread it on the township roads. Last year's price was $1.85. It is expected the township will require about 20,000 cubic yards in 1967. In other business, council; Agreed to hold a special meet- ing on March 10 to complete the road expenditures bylaw for the year.
