The WMS"Few of us eonuprelhend bhe ex-.
, of the Presbyterian of . •Canada's'•e outs of food
Church .net at thee home of the ipresi- 1 redacts " the Lieutenant -Governer
dent, Mrs. G. D. 'Roberton. After stated.- "In 1946 our exports of
the Call to Worship, sinel meditation meati, cheese .and eggs alone required
on "They Kingdom Coate, Thy will a train •a (half - mile long moving to
be done by Mrs •Charles Twitohele the seaboard every work clay of the
year. Deering 1946 :Ontario farmers
produced 65 per cent of the cheese
exported from Canada. For the leer -
led •September 1, 1946 to February
28, 1947, 57 per cent of all the eggs
exported froni Canada were .produced
by Ontario hens.
"Although similar export figures,
on a Provincial basis, are not avail-
able for bacon and beef, yet in 1946
40 per cent of the 4,350,000 hogs
and 28 per cent of the 1,720,000
anada
were mar-
keted
inC
cattle marketed
keted in Ontario and it is reasonable
to expect that a similar percentage
of the exports of these products had
their oregin in Ontario.
"Ontario farmers are producing a
large share of Canada's total ex-
portable high protein food products
and must be therefore vitally inter-
ested in the continuance of these
outlets as their scononuic' existence
depends on it. In fact, live stock
and meat •animal;;, dairy produces,
eggs and poultry eombine tc make up
.74.8 per cent of all the Ontario farm
income.
"We are reasonably assured of -a.
readly market for all of these ,pro-
duots that we can produce at least
to the end of 1948. First -Many of
them are .already covered by contract
with Great Bretain; Secondly -these
products are sorely needed by many
countnues, and Thirdly - they are
largely being purchased on the
strength of loans already made to
Britain. Now as these loans become
exhausted and with the return of
competition front Central Europe.
Seandmnavia, Australia, New Zeal-
and and South America, price and
quality will again become the con-
trolling factors as far as the ex-
ports from Canada are concerned.
"Partners and Governments alike
must continue to worst hand in hand
in improving the quality and must
plan prodnction of an economically
sound basis.
"Now, ladies and gentlemen, I am
referring to all the farmers in On-
tario while the ,present good con-
ditions and great clemand for our
products roman, it is not advisable
for us not only to preserve but to
better the quality of our land and to
see that much good continues to go
back into the soil so as 4o ensure
good crops of quality and quantity
for the following years so that we,
our children, and our children's
children shall all reap the benefit.
"It is my belief, based on per-
sonal observation wherever I have
travelled; that no country in the
world has been more richly fevered
than our in191 Canada and particu-
larly this, aur own Province of On-
tario.
"Some of the world's best ROP
production records have been made
right here in the Province of Ontario.
Some of the best cattle -the best
Smogs the best sheep have been bred
and raised here in Ontario.
"At this Fair today, I would like
to mention the names of Taylor, Ecl-
reeds, Todd, O'Neill, Munro, Turn-
bull, Parker, Snell etc•, whose out-
standing work in the improving of
the quality of live stock makes
them great names that 'will go down
in *history for future generations to
read about.
"I wish to congratulate your
President .and your Executive, and
all who are responsible for this won-
derful show. I also wish to heartily
congratulate 'those who are awarded
prizes and to further congratulate
all other exhibitors and I hope that
tthose who have not been awarded
honorees this year will accept the
challenge and come back with im-
proved entries another year.
It gives 'me great pleasure to
now declare this 42nd IAnnual Clin-
ton Spring Show 'officially open."
One very special feature of the
meeting of the . Mothers' Club of
+
v
Wesley -Willis United Church was
the willingness and decision of. the
menvbers• to nse their capacity as
Canadair mothers to make hospital
supplies for the Mission Hospitals in
China. The members expressed their
feeling that !it s not work only but
an opportunity to express with their
hand what is in, their hearts; "When
saw we Thee in need."
This very worthwhile meeting was
held at the home of Mrs. Elmer
Hugill, Isaac 'St., and the 17 mothers
present received a very cordial wel-
come from the hostess. Mrs. (Dr.)
J. IA.. Addison conducted a very ef-
fective evening's progratiune which
bespoke thoughtful preparation. The
use of an appropriate poem es an
i eroductory opening conveyed the
theme for evening egom vises. The
newly- ppointecl secretary, Mrs. A.
Douglas, read the minutes of the
April meeting. Iles. Paddington
read, the Scripture lesson followed by
prayer by the leader.
Collection amounted to $2.90.
The club wes very happy to .vel -
come Mrs. 13. C. Hearn. president of
the WMS to this meeting. Icer re
merits and sue'geetions were very
timely and graciously rev e'ved.
Mrs. George Braithwaite. Albert
$t., invited the Club to her home for
the June meeting. and Mrs, Dales,
Townsend Ste will have charge of
the programme for the evening.
The followine short readings were
presented, followed with thought-
provoking discussions: "Gentle Re-
minder' by Mrs. W. Mureb; "Strat-
egy for Justice" by Mrs.- Horner;
"Bursting with Pride" by Mrs. Glen
Lockhart; "It's Plain Thievery" by
Mrs. W. Jervis: "Chop this one up,"
by Mrs. Pocklington alt1 "Getting
Most out of Life" by Mrs. Hearn.
The leader ably gave 51 chapter on
"Wise Competition" taken frem the
writings of the psychologist. Profes-
sor William Black. The devotional
session closed with use of Hymn 252
and 'the Benediction.
A very interesting and unusual
contest was introduced. A collection
of baby photos of several members
had been made and the question was
"Who is she?"
Another record meeting wes hap-
pily brought to a close after a fine
social period during which the host-
ess and her helpers served a greatly
enjoyed lunch.
