John Mahoney. Farmers in this area have completed their grain seeding or at least all that of this late date to take a chance on the returns they will receive. From now on they will have to trust to nature for favorable weather for speedy growth. All that EXPO '67 Heralded as the best world's fair in some years, Expo '67 in Montreal is attracting huge crowds of applauding fairgoers who are en- chanted by the magnificence of it all —or seem to be, according to most reports. These shots were taken at the Expo site just two short weeks before the big show opened. At the top, we see a general view of one of the many streets and waterways at Expo. Next is a photo of the United States pavilion which is a masterpiece of architecture on the outside but somewhat of a disappointment on the inside, according to persons who have toured the premises. The third pic- ture shows another one of the many pavilions as it looked while under con- struction. Note the balconies from which visitors are now seeing "a world at their feet", so to speak. DASHWOOD and DISTRICT (MRS. E. H. FRADER, Correspondent) Miss Carolyn Quennel, of Crediton, spent the week -end with Miss Susan Grigg. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Hutch- inson, of Russel's Point, Ohio, spent a few days with Mrs. Henry Eagleson and and other relatives.

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Annan and family, •of Pickering, spent the week -end with Mr. and Mrs. Ferd Miller and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bassow and Emma, of Zurich, A number of Women's Institute ladies attended the district an- nual at Crediton last Wednes- day.

Mr. and Mrs, Leland Reste- mayer and Robert and Mr. and Mrs. Alphonse Denomme and Brian spent .the week -end at Chesley Lake. 6 L . m• Mr. John Charles Daly, the What's My Line host who was one of the mystery guests on CBC's Front Page Challenge last week, defended television's overall programming, discussed pollution, and briefly talked about the disappearance of his well-known Sunday evening show from the CBS schedule next season. He felt the popular panel show was leaving because of age, plus the fact that networks are scheduling more 60 -minute, 90 -minute and even two-hour programs, instead of half-hour slots. At present CBS has Mission: Impossible scheduled in the Sunday 10 to 11 p.m. period. It will be interesting to see what the ratings are like from 10:30 to 11:00 on Sunday eve- ning. We'll bet they go down. This week let's take a look at the comparative network schedule far Wednesdays this fall: At 7:30 ABC will run Custer; CBS will play Lost in Space; NBC will go with The Virgin- ian; CTV will run The Invaders, while CBC will play Mother -in - Law. At 8:30 ABC will play The Second Hundred Years; CBS will go with The Beverley Hill- billies; CTV will run Hockey, or a motion picture, and CBC will play Mission: Impossible. At 9:00 ABC will run a movie; CBS will have Green Acres, and NBC will play Kraft Music Hall. At 10 o'clock ABC will still be playing their movie; CBS will have a News Hour, and NBC will play Run For Your Life. CBC will run festival starting at 9:30, and CTV will go with The Sports Hot Seat at 10:30. could well mean disappointment to the farmers due to a dry spell in the near future. Waren rains are necessary to soften some of their land which was worked when the land was wet due to a wet spring which had caused the land to bake. Due to late seeding farmers can not expect an average crop unless something in nature overcomes the expectation in this year of 1967. Farmers are facing prob- lems which may mean for some, hardships, for today for the farmers the high cost of equip- ment and farm machinery and help, a half crop would mean for some hard to carry on, in fact, all farmers will feel the pinch of it. Naturally they will have to tighten up on their spending. The economy of our country depends on the fruit of our land. Projects which had been tabled for a go-ahead would have to be shelved for some time, There are other troubles brewing up the march to Ot- tawa for better understandings by the authority and the farm- ers and for the latter to re- ceive a more rewarding return for their farm labors. This march to Ottawa will perhaps include x41 farm industries, the dairy, mixed farming and gard- eners all will fall in line their request for better prices, Here and there you will meet with farmers who are not in accord with such movements, they pre- fer to follow the footsteps of their forefathers rather than, as they say, that such advance- ments may fail and they would not receive their demands. 0 Obituary JOSEPH ALFRED H.
