McKinnon was chairlady. The meeting opened with singing the Institute Ode and repeating the Mary Stewart Collect. Faith of our Fathers was sung by the Institute with Mrs. Wm. Ferguson at the piano. In keeping with Remem- brance Day Mrs. E. Regier read a thought filled paper entitled Free Soldier. Mrs. Wm. Ferguson played two piano selections popular at the time the men were at war. Mrs. McKinnon presented a paper on Citizenship and World Affairs. In it she told of the responsibilities of a citizen and how their at- titudes towards these responsibilities can even- tually effect world con- ditions. On World Affairs we have only to read our daily papers. She stressed the link between citizenship and World Affairs. A poem "Old Friends" was read by Mrs. W. Neeb. Mrs. H.

Miscellaneous Rumblings — Continued from Page 4 the period from 1975 to 1978 by the anti-inflation board concluded "that for the major Canadian food processors and retailers, overall- net profit margins measured by percent return on sales has varied little from historic norms during the recent upsurge in food prices." The study found Canadians have changed their food purchase patterns and that there have been three separate influences which have contributed to the rise in food prices. The deterioration of the Canadian dollar has caus- ed imported food prices to rise 15 percent since 1976, not allowing for the normal price fluctuations. The rise in beef prices is another factor the study says which has caused food prices to rise. The final factor has been adverse weather con- ditions outside of the country with much harm being done to the citrus fruits in the USA and the coffee crop in Brazil. Canadians have purchased other goods in place of the higher priced items which could mean the food price increase has not affected shoppers as much as the Consumer Price Index would indicate. Canadians should be thankful that our food prices are still among the cheapest in the world.
