stables and bunkhouse clean had a
withered arm that hung like a piece of
kindling wood.
You felt the spring come after the
frosty, snowy winter and the excite-
ment that swept through the camp as
the drive started. As the old man sat
talked you could feel the pulse of the
big river tearing along with the puny
ogs tied in bunches en its back and i
the hardy limby men with their steel-
caulked hoots riding like daredevils on
he logs.
To this day I can see the little
towns and the big cities that waited
ie vultures together in the money of
he lumber-jacks. Winterlocked by
snow and work, they came tearing in
coking for a bath, haircuts,- shaves,
clean clothes and entertainment.' The
entertanment varied on their tastes.
Big hardy men spoiling for a fight took
the various places by storm.
To this day I can't help but think
of his stories as I hear the names of
Northern Michigan towns and cities.
There are names that roll on the tong-
ue like sweet, round candies . . names
like Saginaw . . and Bay City .
and Tippetiwass.
He farmed for manye'years in the
quiet way of most men who till the
land. His idle hours were spent I am
sure in recalling his younger erlde7s,
His days of retirement were full, of
reminiscences. In that far-off place
to which he has gotie I hope they for-
give him if he slips away from the
group of farmers discussing seed-time
and harvest to sit down again with

The regular meeting of the Culross
Alps Farm Radio Forum was held at
the home of Carl Caslick on Monday
evening, January 20 with an attendance
of twenty. The members' agreed that
we red an international organization
of a4ricultural producers for follow-
ing reasons:
1st—It should improve markets by
developing a more even supply.
2nd—We could arrange with the
other nations to supply a food surplus
for nations which do not produce suf-
ficent food.
3rd—If we got higher prices for our
products through an international or-
ganization our standards of living-
would be higher.
4th—In case of famine, such as in,
1.1ina and India, we could send them.
the necessities of life in exchange for
their products, which we cannot pro-
duce.
5th—An International Agricultural
Organization would promote better re-
lationship between the nations of the.
world.
Progressive pedro was played until
lunch time.
Next Monday evening- at 8.15 sharp,
the Culross Township Federation of
Agriculture is sponsoring a Forum.
Night in the Teeswater Town Hall.
The organized forums of the Town-
ship as well as any others interested in
the worlc are invited to attend this for-
um. The next regular meeting will be

PHIL OSIFER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By IlairY Boyle
•
My grandfather was a man who
lived without benefit of much academ-
ic education. As a boy however this
never troubled me very much. Look-
ing back on it now, it seems as if I
was convinced during the majority of
my boyhood that he was just about the
smartest man in the world. During the
time when my father had to work hard
to provide the boots and overalls that I
wore out with such amazing rapidity,
my grandfather had a good deal of
time to kill,
His greatest pastime consisted of re-
calling in golden splendor, his exploits
as a young man. In spite of his lack
of education and knowledge of literary
things he had many of the qualifica-
tions which seem to be the attributes
of many of our present day. He had a .111 flair for words of action and color,
When recalling some of the lumber
camp brawls he would set the scene
with the glowing lanterns dangling
from the rafters from amongst the
steaming socks hung up to dry, You
would see the lumberjacks sprawled
on their bunks and feel the heat from
the big, box stove in the centre of the
room.
The lumberjacks all had some color-
ful characteristics, Manuel, the Port-
ugee, as grandfather said, had a scar
that snarled at you. Big Dick had a
full red beard and Frenchee who mov-
ed like a black panther bad an oily,
black beard which he kept in perfect
trim. Old Joe ,the swamper who woke
IN MEMORIAM
JAMES—In loving memory of our
dear husband and father, Charles
James, who passed away one year
ago, January 26, 1945.
His thoughts were all eso full of us he
never could forget,
And so we think that where he is lie
must be watching yet.
As angels keep their watch up there
Please, God, just let him know
That we down here do not forget,
We love wed miss him so. '
Ever remembered by wife and chil-
dren.

Stanley Cook, 14 being present. Agnes
Mason led the meeting and Audrey
Bradb'urn the recreation. The question
"Do we need an International organ-

well discussed, and the answer was yes.
We think it would benefit the farmers
in giving a steady market. Production
plans would be set according to sup-
plies needed and the standard of liv-
ing would not be lowered. The forum
is invited to Westfield next week for
