Produce Milk! It's a well-known fact that • a large proportion of Ontario Dairy herds suffer from mineral deficiency, to some extent, during the Fall and Winter months. Dairy cattle in heavy milk production need lots of minerals. If minerals are lacking or low in the feeds they get, they'll drop in production, lost health and vitality, and stop paying their way as an! efficient income source. By supplying your cows with. SHUR-GAIN ESSENTIAL MINERALS for CATTLE, you insure adequate health, promote good milk flow, and keep defici- ency disease in check. SHUR-GAIN CATTLE MINERAL is rich in calcium ind phosphorus in the proper ratio to assure strong bonle formation, high milk production, and vigorous health. Iodine, Iron and Salt are also included for added efficiency. SHUR-GAIN ESSENTIAL MINERALS for CATTLE are needed when grains alone make up the mash fed, or when grains plus purely protein supple- ments make up the mash. FOR SALE.---17 yearling cattle.

I give full per- mission to you to use anything in this letter,. We are a little mean about in- formation as a rule from here for as you know a chance slip might be very dangerous because the enemy puts to- gether a lot of these and is able to piece together 'locations of our for- mations. In this war there is a con- stant shifting of strength from one point to another and thus we are able to achieve surprise which has so far borne good fruit. So we have been in and out of countries at a terrific rate, The morale of our fellows is terrifical, ly high, we have no sickness to speak of and there are even times when we do not howl about the grub. Of course that isn't very. often. That is. our main privilege to do a bit of grousing. However, Jim Lee is in there pitching but sometimes lie finds it difficult to make pancakes and maple syrup without the syrup and without the baking powder. We do get white bread but in limited quantities. That seems to be the one thing which is necessary above everything. If we have sufficient of that we can make the stew go down. I think our rations are a lot better than the last war. Right now Clarence Greer of Luck- now is helping with the milking of the Holsteins here and really enjoying it, Our guns are roaring away on a pro- gramme so we have a mixture of war and domestic life. ; I am sending a poem written by Gnr. H. R. May of the 99th. Back in the days of '89 It seems so long ago, The call came out for gunners To blast a well-armed foe. From far and near the answer came As we remember well, Home loving boys from all the land, Rang Hitler's funeral knell. ..,Equipment then was hard- to get, And makeshift had to do, The country needed money From every one of you. And so the Victory Loan was born, To help us buy the guns, For smashing Hitler's Fortress And mowing down the Huns. Since then a lot of water Has passed 'beneath the bridge, We've got the guns and tanks and planes, To PrOSS the highest ridge. All this has been made possible As year by brighter year, You've shown your love of Canada, And kept her in the clear. Now Victory reaches out her hand To spur us on once r.eoi•e, And once again she needs your help To set us on the shore, So dig down deep and scrape the barrel Bring forth that golden harvest, We'll make this year the biggest yet And Jerry's lot the hardest. COUNCIL TO LEASE THE WINGHAM ARENA (Continued from page one) the ,Mayor informed the members of the council that he would again seek office and he expresesd the wish that all members of the conned would again cffer their servitea, An interesting feature of the meet- ing was a letter and picture cards which the Mayor received from PO. H, E. Clements of Wingham, Eng- land. This officer had hoped when he was located at St. Thomas to visit here . but found it impossible. He wrote the mayor requesting that he send. him some pictures of our town. Mayor Davidson wrote hint a letter and sent pictures and in return this officer on returning to England sent pictures of his home town and an appreciative letter. Town Clerk W. A. Galbraith during the last war visited that English village and lie recogniz- ed some of the streets and buildings. - A letter was read front the Ontario Municipal Health Service Board ex- plaining that if the council so desired that a vote could be taken to institute hospital, medical, dental and nursing HURON COUNTY COUNCIL service in a community or group of „communities. The cost would be paid. by taxation and a goVerrnent grant. On motion of Reeve Evans and Councillor Johnson this matter was. left over for the consideration of the 1945 council, Permission was, granted the Patti- son Radio Service to erect a sign in front of their new place of business on Josephine St,, on motion of Couns. Wilkinson and Lloyd. The Mayor informed the council that the total cost of the surfacing the road to the cemetery was $2765, plus half the cost of the pipe used .and other expenses with this work.

The Mayor spoke of the housing plans of which the muni- cipalities pay 10 per cent and he said it was not made clear when the mini-' ;panties receive this money back. The accounts were ordered paid on motion of Couns. Lloyd and Johnson. Coun.

Reavie that tenders be called. The Lions Club were given permis- sion t`o use the Council Chambers for a meeting on motion- of Couns. Ken- nedy and Rearvie. ,Coun. Wilkinson said the most im- portant part of the Property Commit- tee report was the renting of the arena. He said , the front floor had been re- paired prior -to the Horse Show. He made the suggestion that people form proper lines when buying tickets at the theatre, arena or other places where a crowd assembles for entrance. The seasons work is finished at the Cemetery Coun. Lloyd said, • He mentioned taking Mr. Stoakley on permanent employment which matter was left with him. The Mayor said he had noticed that the Band . did not play for th e Horse Show.

Holland on October 23rd while serving with the infantry, having transferred from the Army Service Corp, to an infantry regiment. His home is in Prince Al- bert, Sask., where his wife arid daugh- ter reside. He makes some very pointed remarks regarding the "zom- bie" army. t Tuesday, October 24/44 Dear Dad; For a while I haven't had much chance to write to you as I have been ducking Jerry bullets,„ However yes- terday I didn't duck in tittle and- I got one in the left arm. We have been fighting in Holland and put on a big push yesterday morning. I got my wound about seven o'clock in the left shoulder from a piece of shrapnel and am in a British hospital in Belgium now. Tomorrow they are going to fly a bunch of us. to England where there is more roont for us. That will mean a seven-day leave, for me when I'm better and that dosen't make me mad. I've been through France, Holland and Belgium now and all that's left is Germany. Of the three Belgium is by far tke best country with it's modern buildings and ways. The people too are far nicer to us and treat us with open arms. They can't do too nuich' for us. Holland is just the opposite and you can't trust any of the civilians there. They have led 'a lot of our boys into traps so far, How are 'things with you and the folks around Wingham these days? I hope your health is fine and you weather the winter O.K. I don't know whether I told you before but I'm now, iii the South Saskatchewan Regt. As you must know they needed infantry men over here badly so I volunteered. If you only knew how badly we tided- ed them your Lions Club and other Clubs would get together and make them send those damn "Zombies" over instead of ,sitting over there wasting the government's 'money., There are men over here that are forty years old and over fighting in the front lines for those cowards, but we ar4n't going to forget it when the war is all over. Well Dad I'll close for now but will write again as soon as I get to Eng- land. I'll not put in any address be- cause I don't know what one I'll have. Don't worry about me as I'm O.K. Love Jack.. * * * * The following letter is from Alvin Stacey to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Stacey of town. Alvin is a mem- ber of the R.C.A.S.C, and is with the B.W.E.F. He 'visited the Vimy Memorial. Sept. 28th, 1944 My Dearest Mom, Dad & all: Well Mom, I am sorry that I didn't write to you long before this, but I have been fairly busy lately and so I didn't get much time to write and it gets dark early these nights, I hope that you are all in the best of health as 1 am. I have gotten two letters from you now Mother with the new address on them and I also got your parcel today and everything in it was swell, and thanks very much Mom because it is really appreciated and the Western Fdy. sent me 300 cigar- ettes the day before yesterday and they really come in handy over here, be- cause that is all a guy has to do in his spare time and you can't get them over here hardly. A bunch of us had yesterday off and went up to Vimy Ridge and there sure is a nice mem- orial there from the last war. I got some post cards of the corner of the monument and I will send you one to- morrow. Well. Mom I guess I will close now, but I will try and write again to- morrow, so love' Mom. Your loving son Alvin. ALPS DISTRICT The ladies cleared over $50 at the dance in S.S.
