LIBRARY ASSOCIATION HAD FINE MERINO Fordwich and Wroxeter Libraries Joined the Huron County Association The October meeting of the Huron County Library Association was held in, the Memorial Hall, 13lyth. In spite of the inclement weather there was a very. good turnout of rep- resentatives front the various member libraries of the association and other interested persons, _Mr. A. Rougvie of Goderich, chair- man of the Association took charge of the meeting. The Rev. Hugh Wilson of Brussels, secretary read the minu- tes of the last meeting which was held in Goderich, on May 8th., 1945, Mrs. Glenn Eckmier, the county librarian, gave a report of her work since August 1st, when she took over the Huron County Library. She also gave a brief summary of statistics showing the rapid growth of the org- anization. In December, 1941, after the organization meeting the first unit of 16 books was delivered to the mem- ber libraries, This number has grad- ually increased until now a unit con- sists of 100 books changed quarterly. The circulation in 1942 was 5,074, in 1943, 12,966; in 1944, 18,003. Mrs. Eckmier mentioned how splendidly the County Council has supported this or- ganization in its growth and also the Department of Education has been a great source of strength both finan- cially and otherwise. In 1942.. the County Council gave a grant of $200.00 in 1943, $300.00; in 1944, $600.00; and in 1945, $1000.00. These grants are duplicated by the Department of Edu- cation. There are now 16' member libraries using 17 units of books, (Goderich Public Library, using 2 units), Hensall and Seaforth Libraries were thanked for lists of suggested books sent in and more were requested. Book jackets from recent additions to the collection were on display. Mr. Angus Mowat, inspector of Pub- lic Libraries for Ontario and veteran of two world wars was the special speaker for the evening. First, he congratulated the people .of Huron on having such a lively organization, say- ing that Huron was the youngest Lib- rary Association and the most aggres- sive of any in the province of which there are ten. He briefly spoke of his two weeks stay in the county when he visited all the 22 libraries. He also stated his pleasure in, meeting at that time, the warden, Mr. A. A. Alexander of Grey Township, representatives of the Federation of Agriculture, the Ag- ricultural Representative, Mr. Bain Stewart of Clinton, and Mr. W. Cruickshank of radio station CKNX, Wingham. Mr. Mowat then went on to speak of community life saying that the lib- bray was the key point from which information could be gathered which would draw people together as a com- munity. He then went on to speak of the present day problem of the re- turning -Service men who, after being away from home for some years, come back almost strangers With no contact with the home community at all, When joining the army they came from all walks of life, the city, town, village, farm, logging camp, mines and tran- sients and rod riders. After being in the army for a short time they soon become welded .into the community where they are happy in the fellowship of camp life, Now the 'day has come when they are being discharged and left feeling almost alone in a world where none seems to care what be- comes of them. The speaker stressed the fact that we owe these Men a great debt of, gratitude for what they have done for us and it is up to US tQ go to them and make them feel at 110111e' and net Wig for theist to come and fit into our community life. Let us not forget that they were not too busy to go for our sakes, then let us do our part for them. The warden was then called upon-to say a few words. On behalf of the County Council lie welcomed all who 'were there and pledged continued sup- port from the County Council to the Association. In closing he moved a vote of thanks to the :speaker Mr, Robert Bowman, reeve of Brus- sels and representative of the County Council to the executive of the H. C. L. A. then spoke of the growth of the Association since its inception in 1941 and gave a resume of its work for the benefit of those who were just coming in. He took great pleasure in second- ing the motion of thanks tendered by the warden to which all responded heartily. Mr. Harry Sturdy of Auburn, Pres- ident of the Huron Federation of Ag- riculture spoke of the willingness of the Federation to co-operate with the Library Association in their work and received information on how farm for- um3 and `schools could join and receive the benefits of library service. Fordwich and Wroxeter Public lib- raries and the Ethel Public School joined the association. The Ethel School is the first school to join the association. These members will re- ceive their quota of books at the next exchange in.

POTATO SITUATION The decline in actual planted acre- ageage of potatoes from 1944 to 1945 was 27,300 aeres, more than 5 per cent. The decline in yield, states the Current Review of Agricultural Conditions • in Canaila, was much greater, from 153 to 115 bushels per acre, or a decrease of 25 per cent. These factors tom- bined to indicate a crop of 58,640,000 bushels in 1945 as against 82865,000 bushels a year ago, the reduction being 29 per cent. Because crops of 70-75 million bushels have appeared to satis- fy normal requirements in recent years, the prospect is for a scarcity of potatoes in months to came, with im- ports partly filling the gap, In every province the crop was less, 'Quebec, WORLD WIDE NEWS IN CONDENSED FORM ThursdaYt Nov, 8th„ 194$ WINCIIAM ADVANCE-TIM Rxecutioner Trio Believed Caught Tokyo,—Three suspected execution- ers of American fliers and the head of Japan's Gestapo, were jailed in a day which also saw Allied headquarters freeze security ,transactions of the 15 greatest financial houses in the empire.

At Windsor Ottawa,—The Royal Canadian Mounted Police is providing approxi- mately 125 men to assist' Ontario pro- vincial police in maintaining law, and order at the Ford Motor plant at Windsor, It was understood here the Ontario Provincial force which Ontario Attorney-General Blackwell said in Toronto would go to Windsor also would total about 125 men.
