This to me, makes a lot of sense, If the prime producers of poultry and eggs •are to keep up with -the times, and stay in business for profit and not for , subsidy, then it is this type of action that will do the job, and the producers will be better off in the long run, Another point brought out by Professor Davey of the federa. Department of Agriculture, pointe to the domestic market as the most important. He admitted that exports are good, but that it is here in Canada where the major market for poultry products eaa be and is found, No suggested that the poultry imiustry ahould remember this and gear its pro- duction accondingly. of the in- may not be in but that may Front grocery Considerable Damage In District Accidents A number of accidents in this district during the past week were investigated by Provincial Police from the local detachment mid re- suited in considerable property damage, but fortunately no injur- ies. Last Wednesday an accident that caused about $200 damage took place at the main intersection in ' Bluevale when a car driven by Ross Abraham of R.R. 4, Wing- ham, was in collision with a truck owned by Tom Shearer of R.R. Bluevale, On Friday evening at 8.30 on County Road 16, three miles east of Brussels, William Raynarcl, of Listowel, and Graeme McDonald, of R.R. 2, Brussels, collided, with damage set at $400. A car driven by Elmer Wilkinson of town went out of control two miles east of Bluevale. on No, 87 Highway and turned over with about $300 damage to the vehicle. Another accident occurred on January 29th at 8.30 in the.morning on the 9th concession of Turnberry three miles east of No. 4 Highway, when. John Askes of R.R. 1, Wing- ham, came out of a driveway and was in collision with another car driven by Mrs. Jean A. evIcKay of R.R. 2, Tceswater, who was pro- ceding east at the time. Damage in this case amounted to approxi- mately $400. `All accidents were investigated by Constable J. Parkinson of the Wingham detachment, Provincial Police.

He is now being read in 111 newspapers throughout the coun- try. Smiley is 40 years old and says he feels every day ef it, A natiye of Perth, Ont., he grew up there, 'and graduated from high school when he was too old to play on the football team any longer. He went off to University of Toronto, and commenced, a course in honor English. In 1941 he joined the RCAF, and trained as a fighter pilot. He flew with the Tactical 'Air Force in Normandy, and was shot down on Friday the 13th of October, 1944. He spent the rest of the war in a German prison camp. Returning to university in 1945, he fell in love with a girl who has since become famous in Sugar and Spice as . The 'Old Battlemec. A ser- ious illness delayed graduation un- til 1949, In that year, he fell into the weekly newspaper business, and for the next decade was editor of the Wiarton, Ont., Echo. During that period, he began writing, just for fun, a column in which he said exactly what he pleased. • A neighboring editor, George Ca- dogan, of the Durham Chronicle, asked if he might use the column. Soon half a dozen editors were do- ing _the same. Steadily, the column increased in popularity. A year ago, the problems of dis- tribution became so big that Smiley contracted with the Toronto Tele- gram News Service for national syndication of the column. Since then, its circulation has increased s ezadsi y y, ear, Bill decided to try something new, went to teachers' college, and is currently regaling the atudents at Midland, Ont., high el1111111111111.111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111211001111.4111RIIIIMIlan 111 111 Ill FRIOA GAME JOKERS TRAMPLE FERGUS JUNIORS The Wingham Jokers, local Jun-, lor "D" i ntry, took a decisive 12-1 victory from. the Fergus team on Friday night in the local arena, to, balance their Wednesday, night defeat in New Hamburg by a 9-5 count. In the Friday game the Jokers sealed the fate of their opponents with a strong first period attack, ending the frame 6-0. They added another for insurance in the second and then went into the third to take another five while Fergus slapped in their only counter of the game, John Fryfogle was the hero of the encounter with no less than seven goals to his credit, The Jokers opened the action at 2,37 when Murray Kerr picked up a pass from Pete Carmichael to draw first blood, He was followed by Coultes who scored unassisted; Crawford from Dallimore and Walker; Dallimore from Brown and Crawford, and two more scored by Fry single-handed. The lone goal in the second stanza was sunk by Fry from Skinn and Carmichael. In the third period Fry really went wild, scoring no less than four in succession, the first from Kerr and Skinn, the sec- ond alone, the third from Car- michael and Skinn, and his final one from Kerr. Bill Crawford notched the last goal of the game with two mniutcs to go, from Walker and Mahood. The only Felt- gus goal was scored by Tracz. During the encounter Fergus players earned five penalties to the Jokers' three, All were minor offences.

Snow Traps "Snow traps" are a trick that some fanners use to -prevent snow buildup in the yards. This is how it works: farmers plant a thick row Of willows about 150 feet outside the tree windbreak- (Usually ever- greens, Maples and poplar) around their yard. The snow and -wind slow up when they hit the willows; some of the snow is deposited there and the rest drops -between the willows and the windbreak. The result: a -big buildup of snow over the willow trees and between the willows and the windbreak, and little drifted snow in the yard, Some farmers seed the "snow trap" area to .garden in the spring. Investors oTrodueato The Smiley's have two children, Hugh and Kim, 13 and 9, who have provided a lot of material for the colunan in the past. Readers of Sugar and Spice, are sometimes infuriated, often amus- ed, but never bored, as they peruse the prose of a man dedicated to looking at life without benefit of rose-colored glasses. C.N. to Provide Improved Service Improved Railiner service be- tween Southampton, Kincardine, Owen Sound and Toronto is an- nounced by M. E. Doke, regional • passenger sales manager, Canadian National Railways. Schedules are speeded up on most runs and transfers eliminated with operation of four Railiner units on a through service. The only ex- ception to this will be transfers to the eastbound train at Guelph and Stratford Sunday evenings. All changes are effective -Monday, February 20th. Points on the Palmerston-South- ampton line will have a daily re- turn service through to Toronto. hy wait till spring? TO 110111 COURSE IN FIRST AID TRAINING • The world's oldest existing wel- fare organization dates back some 800 years, and has continuously served the Canadian people since the -latter part of the nineteenth century. Today, as always, the tra- dition of St. John is carried on, and the Canadian Branch of St. John Ambulance regularly conducts first aid courses in hundreds of communities and instructs thous- ands of people yearly in the proper methods of administering to the sick and injured, In addition to these far reach- ing training 'courses, St. John is responsible for First Aid training for Civil Defence. First aid promptly and efficiently rendered at the scene of an acci- dent might enable you to save the life of, or minimize the suffering of a member of • your own family, a friend, or fellow workman, or maybe even your own. Knowing the right thing to do at the right time is YOUR responsibility. The St. John Ambulance First Aid course consists of a minimum of seven two-hour weekly instruc- tion periods, divided into a one hour lecture and a one hour de- monstration and practice session. Instruction is nrovided by a cer- tified first aid instructor or a medical doctor, at a. nominal cost of $4.00 per person for the com- plete course. The "safety aon- sciousness" that deaelous from taking this -training also helps to prevent accidents from happening in the home, on the highway, and in the office and- factory. If you are sixteen years of age or over, you are eligible to enrol for training in a senior course. A course will be held here in the town hall, beginning Monday, February 20th. Enrollreent will be opening night.

The morn- ing departure time from Kincar- dine will remain at 5.50 a.m., but the return service will leave 'Tor-- onto at 6.10 p.m.-25 minutes later than at present - and the total journey, also via Stratford, is shortened by 20 minutes; W.O.S.S.A.
