It is made from the fermenta- tion ,of white grapes. After press- ing, the grapes are "plastered" i.e. sprinkled with gypsum to aid fermentation. After this pro- cess, reducing the sugar con- tent down to 8 or 10 degrees, alcohol, often in the . form of brandy, is added to bring the wine up to 18 or 20 degrees of alcoholic content. Indeed, even natural sherry is no weak sister in the family of sweet wines, Herewith comparative statistics re the average % of alcoholic strength contained in several kinds of sweet wine. Claret 10.5, Champagne 11.0, Sherry (natur- al) 16, (fortified) 20, Port (na- tural) 16, (fortified) 22. You CAN get drunk on Sherry. Not many do perhaps, for it is served in small doses. But it is ideal as a "first drink" wine for youth. It is one of the "innocent" home cocktail drinks.-Advt.

Radio broadcast dealt with the Federation of Ag- riculture, and noted ways in which farmers make direct con- tact with individual members of Parliament in their own riding, and also by consultation with government bodies, both on pro- vincial and Federal levels, also militant methods- of approach to government bodies, were discus- sed but were considered of doubtful Value, and any meth- ods should never be undertaken by more than one organization, as more than one weakens the whole structure. Then regarding the Milk Industry Act, we feel the Act provides adequate pro- tection for farmers, regarding in- spection of milk plants and creameries, and the checking of weights, tests and prices, and coming to the handling of sur- pluses, two of our groups said that farmers should handle their own surpluses, while one group signified the .government should do the job. We also say that all milk and cream producers should pay the levy for advertising pur- poses because all receive the benefit. Our recreation period was spent in playing progressive eu- chre. Winners: Ladies, most games, Eileen Dolmage; lone hands, Mrs. T. McMillan; conso- lation, Mrs. Walter .Scott. Gents, most games, Stewart Dolmage; lone hands, R. McMillan; conso- lation, Secord McBrien. The next meeting will feature Public Relations, and will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ellwood Clarke. The sympathy of our Forum goes out to Mr. and Mrs. Walter Scott in the passing of their mother, Mrs. Scott.

Fire Destroys Morris Home At 8 a.m. Saturday the frame farm home of Mr. and Mrs. John Jamieson, con. 4 of Morris was burned to the ground and four occupants, Mr. and Mrs. Jamie- son and their two sons, barely escaped with their lives. Mrs.• Jameison was forced to jump from an upstairs window and suffered a broken back. She was taken by ambulance to Wingham General Hospital. All their clothes and posses- sions were lost and a request was sent out for clothing for the unfortunate people. Contribu- tions were being accepted ;by. Ross Duncan of the 4th conces- sion, Morris. . The cause of the fire is not known. The house burned so quickly that no help could bn ob- tained in time. The heavy fall of sno5v in the district made the farm lane practically impassable for a fire brigade. A little over a year ago, a son and a daughter •of the home were killed in a level crossing accident on, the outskirts of Lon- don and this second tragic loss is particulary sad for the Jam- ieson family. Do You Remember ? 1914 OLD BOYS WAS FIRST REUNION HERE With plans under way for an Old Boys Reunion in 1955, fre- quent inquiry is heard about what did they do and how did they make out at the two previ- ous reunions in Seaforth. From the files of The .Seaforth News of 41 years ago in 1914, the answer to many of these questions is contained in a state - Molt published about a month after the event: "The several committees of the Old Boys Reunion and Fire- men's Tournament met in the town hall to wind up the affairs of these two organizations. The committees were well represent- ed and the reports of receipts and expenditures were heard and adopted, the auditors being Messrs. J. D. Hinchley and J. F. Ross. "There was found to be a bal- ance on the right side of 1307,- 52, which was deposited for the Firemen when they go to Thor- old next summer. "That there is such a balance from such a big undertaking speaks well for the directors of this affair . . . Secretary Suth- erland is even yet receiving let- ters from visitors who attended the reunion, that it was the best reunion they ever attended. The committees thought that Mr. A. D. Sutherland was especially in- strumental in ,the huge success of the reunion and the sum of $100.00 was voted to him . .
