THEY SHOULD BE CLEAN (An editoi"ial in "The Lion" offi- cial magazine of Lions International) Older Lions webl remember the days when the 'dime novel' wascon- sidered by our elders o work of Satan, which youngsters should never be permitted to read. They were works of fiction, often lurid,. full of action, and not always written M the best of English. But they were clean! Seldom was cuss word per- mitted in their pages, and when it just had to be used, it was disguised thus: d — ! Not so nowadays. Books issued by some of the foremost publishers are so full of vile words, fully spelled out, that they are on a level with the pencilled scribblings of punks in a toilet room. If the newspapers used the words. of these "best sellers" they would be barred from the mails, and their editors sent to jail—and rightly so. Id a Lion should so far forget him- self as to include some passages in a letter, he would_very properly be, taken before a federal grand jury if the fact became known. But the vilest scenes can be depicted in a book which sells for two or three dollars, and critics call it "litera- ture" and nothing is done about it. , What can be done? That is a question not easily answered off- hand. But it is one whioh Lions may well consider, for their children as well as others ars exposed to the vulgarity and obscenity of a few foul -minded writers and money -mad' publishers. Think it over—maybe an answer will come, ST.

TESTING LAB FOR W. ONTARIO The directors of Huron County Federation of Agridulture, meeting in the Board Room, Agricultural Office, 'Clinton, Wednesday even- ing last, unanimously endorsed a Brief favouring the establishment of a branch seed testing laboratory i the City of London to serve th whole area of Southwestern Ontari included in the ten counties of th London Postal District, vis.: Essex Kent, Elgin, Norfolk, Bruce, Oxford Middlesex, Lanrbton, Perth an Huron. T'he brief is in the name of Mid- dlesex Federation of Agriculture, Middlesex Crop Improvement Asso- dation, Canadian Seed Growers' Association, and the Seed Dealers Association, K. R. Hillier, London, inspector Plant Products Division, Dominic) Department of Agriculture, was pre sent at the meeting and explained t the directors the need for such laboratory. He pointed out that 100, 000 bushels of seed had been grow in Western Ontario last year for ex port to the United States. "The urgency of this proposal i due to the inability of the See Testing Laboratory in Toronto t handle the expanding demand fo services", Mr. Hillier said. Very often the length of time required t submit safnples and procure certi •fied or official reports is so grea important sales are lost. This i not helpful to the business of hand ling seed, and quite frequentl works against the reputation of th country as a trading and exporting nation. The seed grown, prepared £or export and inspected in this area has won a high reputation for purity and germination; and, `therefore; is in great demand. It should be noted that every bag of registered or certi- fied seed is carefully tested before it is sealed. This practice enhances 'the confidence of the dealers. The loeal seed testing situation has be- come so serious that group meetings have been called of those interested, and wide -spread discussions have taken place, with the result that a large number of our heading agricul- turists in Western Ontario are ap- pealing to the Honourable the Min- ister of Agriculture for relief. "In growing and marketing seeds, the time factor is of the utmost im- portance. We believe that the early establishment 'of a Plant Products Division office and laboratory in London, with complete equipment and a full staff of trained workers— in other words a seed testing station of the highest type—is required to meet our present most pressing needs." n e. o. graveside obsequies..

Summary of Brief The Brief is summarized as follows: 1. Western Ontario is designed by mature to produce high quality seed. This year the crops are heavy and a arge amount of seed will be pro- duced. The district is largely free from serious noxious weeds such as, e.g., wild oats; hence, the popularity of Western Ontario grown seed for export trade. A fully equipped seed esting service is a first essential in reducing and marketing pure seed. 2. The see growers d grwe s and seed dis- tributors of this area are labouring under a severe handicap because of the absence of a properly equipped seed testing service. 3. Seed growing and exporting are lines of business of great promise and will prove highly beneficial to 11 our people. They should have the upport and encouragement of the Depar•.tment •of Agriculture to pro- uce maximum results. 4. The remarkable efficiency of the London Postal District in handl- ing mail with speed suggests to our eed interests an immediate solution o their ,problem, by showing there that it is possible for a testing labor - tory located Sn London to receive amples and dispatch reports within period of say three days. 5. It is believed that suitable uarters in London can be procured for a seed testing 'laboratory and it is urged .that authority be granted to collect the staff and •equipment required so the work may be started in time to meet the needs of the current crop year. Airmen from this district returning home from overseas this week on the liner Georgic. include: — Sgt. J. A. Labelle, Seaforth; Cpl. J. A. Morri- son, Dublin; LAC, R. W. Sangster, Hensall; LAC G. E.
