G, -VISITED LIONS CLUB WORLD TWO -Octl.et .; sine He took up the matter of post war work and rehabilitation of the men and women in the armed forces, It was estimated that there were 700,000 men and women in the armed services and another 900,000 in war industries, When all these people were returned to civilian life there would 'be a tre- mendous problem in securing suitable work for all, To. spread out the change over it was hoped that a con- siderable number would be retained in a standing army for a time, This would help. Then if war industries could be gradually shifted over to Civilian production the workers could be absorbed in an orderly manner, There were over 700,000 farms in Canada, and when all the repairs and improvements could be made, there would be a great market for civilian goods.. It had been said that there would be a population of 25,000,000 in Canada after the war. Many British airmen who had been trained in Can- ada, had signified their intention of returning after the war. There would be a heavy European immigration as $0 many oppressed peoples would be anxious to get away to the freedom of Canada. The basic industries could be, greatly 'benefitted with Jailer popu- lation, He traced the great improve- ments made in farm machinery in the last few decades. There would have to be greater stability in farm prices and he felt that the various Govern- ments were beginning to move to- ward this ideal. The address proved very informative and was greatly en- joyed and on motion of Lion Jack Hanna and Lion Stan Hall a vote of thanks was tendered Lion Steve Stothers, Guests of the Club were Rev. C. Pentland .of Martinsville, Ill.; Dr. J. Brown of Woodstock, and Lion Steve Stothers of Arthu.r. Tailtwister Gord. Buchanan was right on the job and noticing that Lions Geo, Ross, Harley• Crawford, Bill McCool and Stan. Hall were in uniform, he asked them to come forward and then called on Lion Hal MacLean to give them a thorough inspection. Lion Hal found buttons not fastened, heels of shoes not shined etc., and with the result that all were fined for defects of dress. One table seating Lions Al. Walker, Chas. Roberts and Bill Hamilton were required to do an act which wa,, whispered to them and to the amuse- ment of all, they stood on their chairs and went through the motions of crowing. It was charged that Lion I-Tarley Crawford, became so absorbed in Bridge that at the first meeting of the season on Thursday evening, he forgot about his car and left it parked in the centre of John Street all night. Lion Otto Gallagher vouched for the car being parked in such a manner as to block,,the street and Lion Harley submitted; to the usual fine. Lions Bill Connell and Howard Sherbondy were reported to have been duck hunting one evening and when coming home they became lost in the dark, They finally observed the planes returning to Port Albert and travelled in the opposite direction and reached home in a round about man- ner. Lion Otto 'Gallagher requested Lion Bill Connell to show him on a map of the world, the course they had taken, When pointing out the course on the map Lion Connell became con- fused and pointed out the starting Point as in Arabia. This resulted in a fine being imposed with the approv- al of all the Lion's. Lion Otto Gal- lagher stated that Lion Bill Connell had been invited to attend a recent meeting of the Boy Scouts and had failed to turn up. He would have profited by the map reading and esti- mation of distances, The Tailtwister also \reported that sonic Lion had placed a four cent tip under a plate at the recent Cotnpli- mentary dinner at the Foundry but no trace of the guilty one could be found by Lion Omar Haselgrove, All the Lions who had missed this banquet were fined. rolls. .

Cash income from the sale of farm products in Canada for the first six months of 1940 rocketed up to over $538 millions as against $248 millions in the same period of 1942, and $356 millions in 1941. This increase was common in all provinces except On- tario, with the Prairie Provinces tops because of the sale of 1942 grains. Greatest percentage was shown in the marketings of oats and, barley. Hogs hit $106 millions, dairy products $110 millions, In the same period, however, the domestic consumption of fluid milk, butter, cheese, ice cream, etc., showed quite a, decrease, most of it resulting from butter rationing. * * Quickies: Britain has asked for an- other 130,000 barrels of Nova Scotia apples, raising to 280,000 barrels the r• ilton.
