WHITECHURCH
Whitechurell Farm Forum met on
Monday evening at the home of Mr,
and Mrs. Cecil Falconer, with an
attendance of 41. Three groups dis-
cussed the basic causes of war, and
how to prevent war. The opinion of
the forum was, that wars were caus-
ed by envy and jealousy among
nations with a lust for power, greed
for money, and by the big interests
in ammunition and armaments, by
densely populated countries where
there is lack of food, and by politics
They decided that the only method of
prevention was by more open dis-
cussion of problems, co-operation
with other countries, Christianity, and
by helping them to help themselves,
and by the machinery now set up by
the United Nations. Mr. Myles St.
Marie was chairman for a short pro-
grain for St. Patrick's day, and the
Chairman's address was brief, "Faith
begorra and the top of the mornin'
to ye." Seven tables played euchre.
Mrs. J. D. Beecroft and Mr. Robert
Purdon held high points, Mrs. Gordon
Rintoul and Mr. Jas. Laidlaw held
low points,
The next, and last meeting will be
held in the Mereopal Hall, when it is
expected that Mr. Gerry Montgomery,
the Ag. Rep. for Huron, will be
present and show slides and moving
pictures of the trip taken 'by the
Huron Crop Improvement Association
to Montreal and Ottawa last year.

interesting reading, on the Signs of
Spring. Mrs. Robert Ross sang,

McClenaghan gave an interesting
paper on, "Home or Just a House".
The lady thought she would like a
house like the many spotless ones
shown in magazine pictures instead
of hers, where children gathered
their trophies from Fall Fairs, their
flowers, and stamp collections, and
cowboy regalia, and the men dropped
their tools on the buffet. But, after
all the extras had been removed, it
didn't just seem like home, and the
decided those spotless homes just
weren't to be lived in. Mrs. Herron
Irwin gave an interesting reading,
"Stovepipe Hole", All sang, "Some
Folks Do", and Mrs. Emerson read a
letter
from Mrs. McKenzie, who was
to have been the speaker ex the
meeting. Mrs. Irwin told the ladies
to save all their old used woollens.

blankets. Mrs. W. James led in two
contests. All enjoyed the lunch of
cake and ice-cream. The ladies iltvisit-
