LIONS CLUB HEARD DISTINGUISHED GUEST Hon, Paul Martin Addressed Lions Club The Wingham Lions Club had an overflow meeting at Hotel Brunswick on Friday evening, when -additional tables had to be set in the hall to ac- commodate the crowd. Lion Pres., Bill Tiffin welcomed the many guests, including Hon. Paul Martin, Minister of Hea tit; John Dickey, M. P. for Halifax, Alex Jef- fery, London; R. S, Atkey, Clinton; four members of the newly formed Lions Club at Teeswater, Frank Field,. W. T. Sillick, W. Cooke and M. A. Donahue, also Bernard Rutledge, who favoured with a couple of solos, Tailtwister Gord Buchanan and his assistant in extraction, fined many for rea. and imaginary infractions, the culprit of the evening- was Lion Mac MdaeWilliam who was accused of lift- ing a couple of radiators from the rear of the Presbyterian Church to be used,. in .his new house he was comtemplat- ing building. They even went so far as to fine their distinguished guest, Hon. Paul Martin. - In the absence of Lion Jack, Reavie,. the Lion Tamers duties were taken over by Lion Jack McKjbbon, who with Lion Harold Pym introduced some new songs. Lion Bob 'Hetherington, newly selected Liberal Candidate, introduced the Hon. Paul Martin, who delighted the members with his oratory. In his opening remarks he. kidded Lion Har- ley Crawford; that he would 'be lone- some when his partner went to Ot- tawa. He said that regardless of poll- iticaf affiliation only through active interest and service can our political freedom be maintained. The freedom that through two wars we have fought for the privilege to enjoy. If these sacrifices are to be justified we must that they were not in vain, show by our conduct and achievements Our concept of political freedom is not shared by many countries. Free- dom loving countries trying to avoid domestication and maintain peace, and because ,of- the failures :of portions. of the United Nations have banded to- gether in the proposed Atlantic Pact. This is not designed as a means of agression, but rather recognizing that only by combined defence may peace be assured, Lion Ken Kerr reported on the suc- cess of the play, "Nothing But the Truth" and moved a vote of thanks * to all who had assisted in its success. Frank Field, president of the Tees- water Lions Club, spoke briefly, stat- ing that there were 27 Charter mem- bers with others wishing to join. He extended an invitation to attend their meetings. Play At Belgrave "Uncle Cy Hits A New High", corn- ing to Forrester's Hall, Belgrave, Fri- day, April. 1st, 4 hilarious comedy from St. Hefen's, sponsored by the United Young People. Don't miss it. For over twenty-five years an ef- fort has been made in Ontario to see that all children crippled by disease and injury have a chaance fol. a future happy and useful life. This work start- ed when the Society for Crippled Children was formed by a group of Service Club workers. We are all aware of the crippling effects of such diseases as T.B. of the, bones, joints; infantile -paralysis and club feet, to mention only a few. There are many others, After recovery from these acute infections, these children need special care, special appliances, walking boots and braces. They -also need relaxation outdoors in specially supervised summer camps such as Blue Mountain Camp at Collingwood. All this requires. a great deal of money and Service Clubs are under- taking to aassis,t them in raising funds through the sale of Easter Seals. Wingham Lions Club will again sponsor this campaign in this district and within a few days envelopes con- taining Easter Seals will be received in the mail. Help the Crippled Child %INGHAM CHAMBER OF COMMERCE BANQUET Watson Porter To Speak Friday, April 8th, is the date of the Chamber of Commerce Banquet to be 'held in the local Armouries, It is sponsored in the interests of Conser- vation and it is hoped that the banquet will attraact many farmei's in the dis- trict, Watson Porter, editor of The Farmer's Advocate, is widely recogs sized as an outstanding authority on this vital sUbject, Mr. Rhys. Pollock, chairman of the Rural Relations Com- `rnittee, is now directing a vigorous campaign to make the banquet a suc- cess. At the regular meeting of the Chamber of Commerce it was decided to hold the annual meeting on Wed- nesday, April 13th. It was the hope that the long-delayed membership, certificate would be ready ,in time to present at the annual meeting. This delay was caused through the scarcity of some of the materials to be used in completing the certificates. To Sponsor Calf Club Mr. Rhys. Pollock reported that the proposed Calf Club would be spon- sored and that there were now enough entries to proceed with its organiza- tion. Some of the members of the Chamber of Commerce reported that they had attended the Seed Fair at Clinton. They were most anxious to carry out the plans to have a Fair in Wingham next Spring. Mr. W. T. Cruickshank asked ,f(i'r a committee to study the possibility , of having a Trade Fair in Wingham this year. This committee is to report their findings as soon as possible. Reported Industrial Conference The Secretary, Mr. Sam Burton, in making his report of the Industrial Conference held in Toronto recently, stressed the importance of the indus- tries that are already located in Town. Little appreciation is generally shown and it was pointed out that without industry there would be no town at all. The report was adopted and the Secretary was instructed to take steps to secure information about the town that would be of use to industries which+ might conSider locating here, "'First item of impor tance however,. ''" was to consult our present industries and to make them feel that they are appreciated. It was also the unanimous opinion that no industry should be brought to town without first consult- ing our local industrialists. H. P. Carmichael, Membership Com- mittee Chairman asked if his commit- tee might sell Chamber of Commerce Memberships at the coming banquet. His committee didn't want people to think that this was a high pressure scheme but they did think that those people attending the banquet would be glad of the opportunity to join. It 'would also cut down oh the amount of work necessary to make the mem- bership campaign a success. Don't Worry About Taxes Mr. A. E. K. Bunnell, Municipal Tax Expert, stated at the recent In- dustrial Convention that the Canadian Community must expect higher Muni- eipal taxation especially if the citizens want the services they are, getting at present. Putting it rather bluntly, Mr. Bunnell said "Canadians at present are spending more money on beer, or on movies than on municipal taxes with- out a murmur—they evidently want- beer badly enough that they will pay anything for it. The qeustion is this: Do they want the varibus municipal services badly enough to pay for them? Mr. Bunnell told the representatives of Ontario's communities not to worry if their tax rate went up to 65 or 70 mills. "Actually"; he said "you are not out of line when you compare the intr. chasing power of the dollar today with that of say 1932." "It is unfortunate however, that many Canadians who are trying to live on fixed incomes, are having a hard time to make ends meet" lie continued. Mr. Bunnell further stated that he knew of no community in Ontario• where the tax trend was downward. "Municipal councils are often critic- ized for this situation and they are often admonished to keep taxes down, But the progressive community will always recognize the need of spending to keep its services oil a par with ,other plades and most intelligent people will understand that our tax dollar of to- day Can't possibly buy what it did in days gone by" Mr. Bunnell concluded. Our comment: quite true BUT—still a hard pill to swallow!
