Cameron. president of the Board, was in the chair and in reviewing the work of the past year he said he was sorry he had not an elaborate report. for the reason that there had been little to engage the attention of the Board during the year This, no doubt. was due to war conditions. There was no reason. however, to take a pessimistic view, as the town's industrial establishments, on which the prosperity of the limn so greatly depended. reported favorable con- ditions and hopeful prospects. Referring too the failure to secure any new large industries for the town. Mr. Cameron said one reason was the high price of Hydro power here as ,compared couragament. L IULTINOS.

R. R. No. 3. (Rural telephone It ri,. made to bring about a change of policy, so that the handicap under which Gode- rich labors might be at least to some ex- tent removed. There might be some difficulty about making a Hat rate for Hydro power. but perhaps a zone system could be established. The necessity' for increased production of foodstuffs was greater now even than in the year that was past. Famine con- ditions were prevailing in many countries, and everything possible should be done in this country to increase food suppl es for ourselves and our allies. In going over the statements that had been handed in to him. he found that no less a sum than $15O,000 was paid in wages in 1 he industrial establishments of the town last year, to about SOU men. It was to be regretted that the Beech - ler factory had been destroyed by tire, and he hoped that when the insurance was settled Mr. Baechler mtghtt be -able to resume operatidns. Mr. Cameron said he had been p;est- dent of the Board for rive years and though t he should retire. He had en- joyea the most amicable relationk,weith all in his occupancy 01 the office. although it had been discouraging to tied so much indifference to the Board among those who should be most interested In it. Ile hoped there would be a change in this respect. Ile believed Guderlch was in as favorable a condition as most places, and there were good prospects for .the future. Negotauons had been carried on with the C. P. R. with a view to having one of the company's bloats put on this line, and he understood the company intended to put on a good boat but could not do so until alter the war. There were good grounds Tor hoping that this year we shotild see the estab- lishing of a shipbuilding plant here. The town was fortunate in having secured Mr. Hutchison to locate here, and he was proceeding with his plans for a shipbuild- ing plant, either to take Government contracts,or,if these could not be secured, to handle contracts for independent firms. Mr. Cameron then read the following reptirts from various Industries of the town, and in conclusion thanked the mem- bers of the Board for kindness received at their hands and assured ithem he would continue to do all in his power to ad- vance the interests of the town. The conclusion of Mr. Cameron's ad- dress was marked by applause. The election of officers for the coming year was then proceeded with, resulting as stated above. Immediately upon his election as president Mr. Parsons was called to the chair and was ,sworn In by Mr. Cameron. l'he new president briefly thanked the members for the honor conferred upon him and proTtnised to do what he could during the' year in carrying the work of the Board to suc- 1994. - There was considerable discussion as to the constitution of the Board. some of the members desiring to change it so that the business would be more directly; in the bands of the general membership of the Board instead of being transacted largely by the council. It was stated, however, that as the Board was constituted under Dominion statute the constitution could not be altered in this respect. It was de- cided, however, to hold the general meet- ings monthly. instead of quarterly, wl_sisly merrtiers"Fiip more in touch With the work of the Board than has hitherto been the case. These meetings will be held on the second Monday of the Month. and whenever possible it will be arranged to have a luncheon and a speaker to address the Board. Me, H. E. Hodgens spoke of Mr. T. J. Hannigan, of Guelph, secretary of the Hydro -radial Association, as one who could give the Board a very interesting address. • In rvspx)nse to a communication from the Toronto Hoard of Trade, it was de- cided to join that Board in petitioning the Dominion Government to pas a day- light-saving measure. Several other matters were discussed before the Board adjourned. Following are the Industrial reports as submitted to the president: THE GOOF:RICH ELEVATOR& TRANSI CO. LIMITED.

We believe this is the Lieut. l)ancey who did a good deal of speaking at recruiting meetings in Western On- tario about two years ago and addressed one or more meetings in Goderich, and who afterwards was much talked about as having torpid out to be a German spy. Whatever ft such talk. it evidently was withu 'ftundation, as Lieut. 1)an- cey is still in the service and hearing honorable wounds. On January :10th, at Buckingham Police, King Gorge decorated seven Canadian nursing sisters with the "Royal Red Cross." One of those to receive this honor was Miss Maud Stirling. of Bay- field. formerly well known in Goderich as a student of the Collegiate Institute.

WHAT WILL YOU DOT An Appeal for Help in the Great Crisis Now Upon Us. We are rapidly approaching the food production season of 1918. For Months past the public has been warned of the need to save foodstuffs. Perhaps after the experience with the fuel problem this winter our people may realize indre fully the need oil greater war effort on the part of the • "stay-at-homes" A bountiful harvest will undoubtedly. °materially hasten an early and successful termination of the War. Canada can feed the world. The ex- tern of her agricultural resources is beyond our conceptxm. Her chief handi- cap is the: shortage of labor. Ontario is the most productive Province in the Dominion. Her rural area, are handicapped by the scarcity of help. ller towns and cities have thousands of acres of additionable tillable land. Almost all of odr people can help irk (me way or another in food production. Each individual can either cultivate a town garden or give assistance to a farmer. Only the infants. the aged and chronic invalids are unable to assist. Ontario has dui: well, but. having done what we have. let us leave no stone un- turned to secure everlasting peace. A glance in the world's picture -hook shows almost unbelievable suffering in Euto;w, unprecedented tuastage, horrors and agonies beyond our con'rptlon.
