WINTER Rea] Estate and Business Broker High Street — Clinton Phone 448 being that today there are mod- ern conveniences, and the average fanner and his wife have spent their whole life on the farm, and would enjoy living on the farm more than they would if they re- tired among strange neighbours The question of how a farmer should prepare financially for're- tirement was asked. The major- ity of capital is to be invested in the farm business. He should carry moderate insurance for pro- tection, and invest a small port- ion in annuities or blue chip - stocks when available. For recreation games of "500" were played. Lunch was served, PARR LINE FORUM (By our Hensall correspondent)) The Parr Line Farm Forum met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Love. There were 24 adults and six children present. The topic for dicussion was "Re- tirement Plan for Farmers." This group was rather undecid- ed as to which would be the better. Most of them thought It better to retire off the farm if it was pos- sible. However on the other hand it would depend a great deal on the individual. If they have their health and enjoy being on the farm, then they should remain: The forum felt that is is more economical to retire on the farm. Moving to an urban centre does require a good deal of adjustment and means a change of envirenment. Not too many farmers who feel well, are content to sit back and do noth- ing even though they can afford to, However, if a farmer is not able to look atter a farm and keep it up he should retire to the town and let ,a younger person take over, rather than let it go back in value. Some people do find that a change is better, both for their physical and mental health. The husband, though, is the only one who really retires. The wife still has her house to look after and meals to cook no matter Where she is, The farmer . could prepare for retirement by building up his sav- ings account. Life insurance may prove beneficial if times and con- ditions permit him to make his regular payments. Government annuities also provide a measure of old age retirement. The old age pension of course is a great help. Today it is hard for the younger farmer to prepare for this retirement time, because if he did get a nice bit set aside he is tax- ed and the costs are too high. The winners at euchre were; ladies, Mrs. Stewart Blackwell, Mrs. Baiter; gentlemen, Ross Love, Frank Mousseau. FRIENDLY FEW The Friendly Few •Farm Forum met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Riley. The group was div- ided in their opinions. Some thought the farmer when able to retire should leave the farm; oth- ers thought he could live much cheaper on the farm and rent the land for pasture; others thought the farm should be put to better use with crops as some of the re- tired farmers farms are very rich land and to pasture it all would- n't be so profitable to the farmer or the one that rented. Progressive euchre was played and the prizes going to, ladies' high, Dennis Jewitt; low, Gary Jewitt; men's high, Ross McGreg- or; low, Bill Jewitt. Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Dale invited • the forum to their home for next meeting. YOU SIMPLY CANNOT BUY A BETTER GASOLINE!

The topic was "Can farm ers have old age security?" The forum : thought- this decis- ion'Was for the individual farmer.' If a farmer- has sons, the average boy has not : enough money ro make a large down - payment, therefore the father would need to hold the mortgage' so would not have enough to buy' a house in town and live on. All farmers are striving now to make a living and save a little. Life insurance was one way of laying aside for later life. News of Auburn Correspondent ',- MRS.
