Its aim is to help economically underdeveloped countries to help themselves.

Miles While a considerable num- ber of farmers are short of wa- ter, conditions are not yet des- perate as those affected are able to secure water within short distances and can make arrangements for transportation. It is felt however, the situation will change when cold weather forces livestock into the stable. Considerable feeding of live- stock is taking place although cattle were in the barn at this time last year and feeding was taking place. Fall wheat in the south half of the county on bean land is very spotty some areas show- ing no growth. Corn harvest- ing in the south of the county is two thirds completed, in the north part one third to one half completed. Lilly: What period is your house furnished in?

"Lloyd Doors", as the com- pany is widely known, has for many years had a progressive policy on employee welfare. In addition to hospitalization, group insurance and other bene- fits of the more usual kind, the local firm started a special fund in 1948 for employees of long service. With 31 original mem- bers, more joined on reaching three years' service, while a number withdrew upon retire- ment. A participatory plan, em- ployees contributed out of wages while substantial contri- butions were made by the com- pany in all years when profits were realized, In 1956 a new plan was started, now with 104 members and a trust fund over $800,000. Geared to a scheme for pensions it will likely un- dergo revision when details of provincial or federal govern- ment plans are finally resolved. To avoid the burden on em- ployees which would result from paying into two or more pension schemes the Lloyd - Truax company expects to con- tinue its profit -snaring policy in a revised form with benefits going to a still larger number of employees, including those who have had three years of service with the Truax com- pany of Walkerton, now part of Lloyd -Truax Limited, as a re- sult of amalgamation early this year. Drivers, never change lanes without looking in your rear- view mirror, and glancing over your shoulder to check the "blind spot". The Ontario Safety League puts it this way: "Turn your head before you turn your wheel". WE THOUGHT WE HAD a dandy last week when Wilf Hamilton found a maple leaf measuring 11'1/2 inches each way. Then Miss Cora Gannett produced this pic- ture from a British Columbia newspaper of a specimen 14 inches in depth and 19 inches across. We may have more maples in Ontario but it's unlikely that our leaves will ever out -do those grown in B.C. IRISH ADVENTURER Thomas Preston was born into the Anglo-Irish nobility in 1585. Educated in Holland, Preston spent most of his life serving the Spanish rulers as a soldier, putting down the strug- gle of the Low Countries for in- dependence. Preston led forces of Irish mercenaries in battles that won him much fame. When the English Civil War of Cavalier and Roundhead began, Preston returned to Ireland to command the Leinster army of rebels against English rule. Here, as in Holland, Preston also manoeuvred against his lifelong rival, Owen Roe O'Neill. In 1650 the exiled Charles II created Preston, Viscount of Tara. Finally, Cromwell, the Roundhead vic- tor of the English civil war, crushed the Irish rebels too. Preston fled to the Continent in 1652 and died there three years later. "How is it that you are late this morning?" the clerk was asked by his manager. "I overslept", was the reply. "What? Do you sleep at home as well?" inquired the mana- ger, RCAF Drama Group Plans Production RCAF Clinton Drama Club will produce a musical, "The Life and Loves of Dizzy Doaket' at the Air Force Station Theatre early in December. The musical comedy is based on the Mikado and ispro- duced by W02 Alex Velleman. Mrs. Esther Velleman is the director and Sgt. "Sandy" Wel- land in charge of graphic arts. "Al" Meleto will design and execute the scenery. The pro- ducer is still looking for a volunteer for the key position of stage manager as rehersals are going at a good rate. Bob Blundell and Gwen Davies have the leading roles, and a "mystery" performer has been signed for the difficult role of "Katisha" . Featured players are: LAC Bill Baptie, FS Gordie Wade, F/L Joe Nelischer, Dan Cutherbert, Mary Rousell and Sandra Pal- mer. The drama club is compos- ed of "dependents" as well as regular RCAF and so is a real station effort, encompassing station staff as well as the resi- dents of Adastral Park.
