ST. JOSEPH and DRYSDALE
(ALFRED DUCHARME, Correspondent)
Recently your truly called
at the Si. Joseph business place
to meet with the new proprietors,
Mr. and Mrs. Jim Hogg and fam-
ily, who had taken over the bus-
iness previously owned by the
Burgess family.
Mr. and Mrs. Hogg are
western born, both were married
out west and lived there for some'
time. After some years they
decided to move eastward, and
like many others always seeking
to better their standard of living,
or perhaps in their case Mr. Hogg
being an air -craft engineer was
shifted to different centres, and
landed in Zurich nearly two years
ago.
The Hogg Family have three
daughters, ranging in age from
9 years, 12 and 15 years. They
will be a great help to their
parents when they become acc-
ustomed to the business. At the
present it is too early in the
season for tourist trade, and still
too cold for the motoring campers]
to pass some time in their cottage
except doing some repair work.
We welcome the Hogg Fam-
ily into our midst, and may they
adjust themselves to their work.
As the time will pass on, they
will meet with people in the
surroundings, and others that
will help to build a prosperous
business.
At the time of writing, the
month of March is still pouring
out favourable weather, which
was not expected. Generally,
the month of March is blustery
and windy, followed by heavy
snow falls. But, so far we have
escaped all of that, and naturally•
people are wondering if the bulk
of the winter is over, and spring
just around the corner.
Mr. and Mrs. M. Forsythe of
Detroit spent the week -end in
their cottage in Bay -View sum-
mer resort. Already campers are
making repairs in readiness for
their sugrmer holidays.
Visitors at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Dolph Sopha over the
week -end from Windsor, were
Mr. and Mrs. Abel Ducharme,
from Detroit were Mr. and Mrs.
Lawrence Sopha, Mrs. Gerdine
Sopha, and Mrs. Donald Baier.
Visitors from Mount Carmel were
Mr. & Mrs. John Mahoney, and
from Zurich, Mr. and Mrs.
Harold Dietrich, also Mr, and
Mrs. Morris Durand from the
fourteenth concession.
Sister Pricille Theresa Duch-
arme, after spending a week with
her parents Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Ducharme, returned to the
Ursuline Mother House in Chathan
on Monday last.
Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Jeffrey
of Goderich were Sunday visitors
at the home of Mr. Isidore Duch-
arme.
Mr. Jaynes Denomme who is
in residence in St. Mary's Hos-
pital in London, with his son Don,
also of London called on Mr. and
Mrs. Garfield Denomme of this
neighbourhood on Sunday last.
The senior Mr. Denomme is a
native of this parish, but had
been in business in Grand Bend
for some years before his re-
tirement to his present home.
Mrs. Celina Bedard, at
present is spending a few days
in London with her children.
WINTER STILL HERE:
Not too many are looking
for a break yet. When looking
to the west of us with a covered
Lake Huron of rough ice, perhaps
in places to a depth of several
feet. So long as that hangs on,
and with a westerly wind, don't
be too quick to look for spring.
The winter months must first pass
on and some times it is draggy
with broken weather. But re-
gardless of it all, at present,
there is too much snow on the
ground, so that is something to
be thankful for. Keep waiting
and the good old spring days will
come again as they did in the
past.

Farm Organizations
Name Mediator
The Ontario Federation of
Agriculture executive has asked
Malcolm Davidson, Brucefield
area farmer, to chair a committ
ee to organize and spearhead a
successful vote for a new general
farm organization in Ontario. The
executive recommended that two
more persons be added to the com-
mittee.
The proposal for the new gen-
eral farm organization is based on
chapter ten of the Report of the
Special Committee on Farm In-
come.
The executive proposed a tent-
ative budget for the committee of
$40,000. to cover costs of a gen-
eral office, staff, speakers, and
travel and promotional expenses.
It was agreed that this $4Q, 000
should be reaised by public appeal.
Mr. Davidson in accepting the
chairmanship said he and comm-
ittee members, Kenneth MacLeod
of Owen Sound, and Kenneth Mc-
Kinnon of Port Elgin, will be seek-
ing assistance from all farm org-
anizations and farmers.
Mr. Davidson made his announce
ment following informal meetings

Sunday visitors at the home

and boys, of Port Colborne, and
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Bryant. of
Stratford.
with the executive of the Ontario`
Federation of Agriculture and
members of marketing boards at
the annual Marketing Conference
being held in Orillia.,
Mr. Davidson reported that the
OFA executive agreed to support
the committee's proposals and will
attempt, in every way, to assist
the committee. While marketing
board representatives were unable
to give support, they indicated
general support for the committee's
proposals.
Mr. Davidson said "that the
committee attempted to present
its proposals to the board of the
Ontario Farmer's Union but was
informed that the board did not
have sufficient time to hear the
proposals."
In expanding on the co-operat-
ion offered by the OFA, Mr. Day-
idson stated "that the annual
Winter Workshop of the OFA will
be turned over to the committee
as a means of evaluating the re-
sources of the agricultural com-
munity which can be used to sup-
port a vote on the GEO.
The committee has indicated
a desire for a spring vote, asking
two questions of farmers. First,
whether they support the principle
of a general farm organization?
Second, whether farmers want
Marketing boards and co-operatives
to have a vote in the GEO?
The committee believes that
the question of voluntary member-
ship should not appear on the ballot
but should be determined by farmer
delegates at the founding conven-
tion.

How to keep
the traffic moving
when rush hour hits
the hot water.
Rush hour. Every family has one.
When there are dishes to be
washed, kids to be tubbed, Dad
scrubbing up. Then Sis decides
she has to have a shower. It takes
a lot of hot water to keep the
traffic moving.
That's why you need the Cascade
electric water heater—the big
producer. It's got the capacity a
busy family needs, and it's
economical, too. Cascade keeps
