W. L. Mackenzie King
In the death of William Lyon Mac-
kenzie King, which occurred on Sat-
urday, Canada has lost a citizen who,
more than any other, contributed to
the Nation as we know it today. His
death brings to a close a career of
public service which may never be
equalled, and which included nearly
twenty-two years as Prime Minister
of Canada.
Death came Saturday evening in
the seclusion .of his Kingsmere sum-
mer home to the man around whom
for so many years history had re-
volved. Only time can fully assess
- his own place in history. Its passage
will permit the seeing in their pro-
per perspective those qualities, com-
mon to all great leaders, which stir-
red in some men intense hatreds, in
Others equally intense loyalty and
devotion. Prime Minister St. Laur-
ent, in his tribute, said he would not
attempt to forecast his place in Can-
adian history, but added he was con-
fident no other man will have a larg-
er place or higher claims on the grat-
itude of his fellow citizens.
Mr. King's strength lay in his ca-
pacity to deny himself seeming bene-
fits of the moment in favor of the
long term advantage. He viewed
each problem as part of the over-
all picture, not as something separ-
ate and apart. This outlook, togeth-
er with his consumate skill as a par-
liamentarian, made possible those
advances in the field of social secur-
ity which Canada has made in the
half -century. F'or this he will be re-
membered as a great humanitarian.
It will be the historians' task to
assess Mr. King's place in the his-
tory of Canada. There is little doubt,
however, that as the years pass, his
stature will increase in the eyes of
Canada and of the world. The lead-
ership that welded the diversified
population of Canada into the fight-
ing .force that so effectively contrib-
uted to the successful conclusion of
World War II, both on the home
front and on the battlefield, will not
go unrecognized.

Diplomatic Conversation
To the man on the street the
language of diplomacy many times
appears to be nothing but double
talk. When communication is nec-
essary between countries at diplo-
matic levels, frequently the messag-
es, basically simple, are surrounded
with so much verbiage that one
must be trained in diplomacy to be
able to know whether the answer
was yes or no.
Most of such communications are
tiresome reading, but now and then
some unknown writer rises to unus-
ual heights in blending righteous
denial with the recognized diplo-
matic courtesies. Such was the case
when a note was recently handed to
the Czechoslovak Foreign Office by
the United States Embassy in
Prague. It read:
"The American Embassy presents
its compliments, etc.... and has the
honor to make the following obser-
vations with reference to the potato
brig.
"To the extent that the potato bug
represents a Czechoslovakian domes-
tie;problem, it is not a matter of con-
0,etn. to the American Embassy,
**Mich nevertheless expresses its-sym-
hy over the damage to Czechoslo-
' agric ltural production caused
the insect in question.
To the extent however that ef-
i e; been made . , . to connect
t,
• $tee with the presence
bug An this country,
e -
ee
the matter is of legitimate interest
to the American Embassy, which de-
clares that allegations to the effect
that the United States encourages
the depredations of the potato bug in
Czechoslovakia, or that the United
States has sought clandestinely to
'introduce the potato bug into Czecho-
slovakia, are false and preposterous.
"The Embassy ventures to suggest
the inherent unsuitability of the pot-
ato bug (Doryphora decemlineata)
as an instrument of national policy.
The Embassy doubts whether the
potato bug, even in its most vor-
acious phase, could nibble effective-
ly at the fabric of friendship uniting
the Czechoslovak and the American
people."
We wonder' what would be the
thoughts of Doryphora decemlineata,
quietly at work in some potato patch,
were he to realize his position of
eminence as a subject of polite diplo-
matic conversation between govern-
ments.
•
Smell -Free Farms
An entirely new era may be open-
ing for farmers if a recently discov-
ered use of the chemical, chlorophyll,
proves to be as satisfactory as early
indications lead one to believe may
be the case. Chlorophyll is an ancient
chemical of nature that makes grass
green and gives trees their color. It
has now been discovered that it al-
so has deordorant properties prev-
iously unknown to mankind.
No longer will it be possible to find
the barnyard by smell alone if the
use of chlorophyll pills becomes gen=
eral. It may well follow that farm
animals, to be acceptable on a smell
conscious farm of the future, will
one day be required to undergo tests
for halitosis, and perhaps B.O.
If perchance the day does come
when there is no longer discernible
that distinctive odor that has identi-
fied a barn as far back in time as
there have been farms, we doubt that
much will have been gained. It will
just mean that farming has advanc-
ed one step further along the road
to becoming an inanimate factory-
like process.
What Other Papers Say:
A Matter Of Taste
(Montreal Gazette)
What has happened to Britain un-
der socialism will happen to any
country that spends its way into aus-
terity. The experience will always be
the same. But as old Mr. Weller said
in "Pickwick Papers"—"but vether
it's worth while goin' through so
much to learn so little, as the charity
boy said ven he got to the end -of the
alphabet, is a matter of taste"

Feature Of Rural Life
(Leamington Post and News)
Junior Farmers' Clubs and Insti-
tutes have become a strong feature
of the rural life of today. Years
ago it was said the country boy and
girl could not interest themselves on
the farm. Today there are as inter-
esting times and as delightful social
gatherings there as in the city. They
are fewer, of course, a decidedly de-
sirable factor. It is an old saying
that if the girls can be persuaded to
remain on the farm and its life can
be made pleasing and desirable, the
drudgery eliminated, and city con-
veniences enjoyed, then the boys
could not be driven from the farm.
The saying may be accepted as gen-
erally true.

The Little Red School
(Exeter Times -Advocate)
The little school stood there in the
cold March wind but no smoke issued
from the chimney. The bell, one of
the wonders of the childish mind,
has no call for the farmer to return
to his dinner. Blinds are in the win-
dows but they are sadly out of re-
pair and no one cares. An occasional
window pane is broken, while the
steps to the door no longer echo to
the sounds of running childish feet.
Paint has long since disappeared,
while the school fence is wrecked be-
yond all repair. Even the trees
planted to mark some occasion wave
desolate and broken branches in pro-
test against the progressive age that
has swallowed, Up the school section

"A Vehicle of Ideals"

ttawa). •
I crave your indulgence to make
a few observations on the freedom
of the press. I should not be ap-
pearing before you today were it
not for the inspiring and challeng-
ing speech of Mr. L. P. Scott, from
the Olympian heights of the Man-
chester Guardian, His call to self-
examination has encouraged me to
bring to you today a whiff of the
simple philosophy of a humble
country editor.
Allthoughtful men and women
today must lament the fact that a
considerable portion of the world's
peoples have lost themselves in
the tangled maze of confusing po-
litical isms. An examination of
statistics will show that the great
industrial cities of the earth have
been the breeding ground for these
cancers on human life.
World leaders of high mental
development and well - rounded
thought have been sincerely scan-
ning the broad horizons of human
experience in quest of a remedy
for this threat to human freedom,
but their search may be likened
to a far cry in the wilderness be-
cause, too often, they themselves
.have lost touch with the simple
mainsprings of the human spirit
which, because of the complexities
by which they are surrounded,
continue to baffle and mystify
them . . .
We hear and read a lot these
days about prideful modern pro-
gress. I wonder how many of us
ever pause to realize that every
second of the working day in the
big cities of the world the human
spirit is being converted from a
delicately tuned instrument with
immeasurable creative potentiali-
ties into a mechanical vehicle of
the industrial age which highly
trained statisticians measure—of-
ten boastfully—in the cold terms
of political economy.
1 am constantly overawed by
the mechanical ingenuity of the
age in which we live. I never
miss an opportunity to see a great
industrial plant in operation. But
I cannot erase from my memory
the empty expression on the face
of a youth standing at the end of
a machine carrier, dropping a
small bit of printed paper into
each package as it passed along
the line. And at the end of hours
of this tedious and uninspiring toil
the best for which that lad could
hope was probably a damp, dark
hole in - the reeking stench of a
crowded tenement house. It is
small wonder that so many of
1
REIMS ;ORAL'
these people hunt adventure up
some dark alley or seek surcease
for their wounded souls in some
unedifying form of what men call
recreation but what is, in actual
fact, no more than another com-
mercialized vehicle of our indus-
trial age to crush and, then to cor-
rupt that beautiful gift—the human
spirit—that God alone can create
and man alone destroys in the
glorified name of human freedom.
Axel I humbly -suggest to you,
Sirs, that the inescapable conse-
quences of this fallacious exist-
ence—and I• use the word existence
advisedly—are the labor troubles
that have assailed governments
and industrial empires in recent
years.
I often wonder if some of the
supposedly great newspapers—not
represented in these discussions,
het which, nevertheless, serve a
considerable segment of these soul -
starved masses of humanity—have
not, too often, permitted them-
selves to be influenced by consid-
erations of external- forces in a
desire to sweII the number of their
pages . but at the usurious
prices of dwarfing their own sta-
ture and clouding their own true
purpose in disseminating the print-
ed word.
I have heard many references
made during this conference to the
importance of the business side of
a newspaper. I have heard many
references to the character of a
newspaper being shaped by the de-
mands of its reader public. I have
heard" much emphasis placed on
circulation figures. I grant you
that the business side of a news-
paper is most important—its can-
not continue to operate unless its
finances are sound. But I some-
times wonder if it is not the high-
est mission of a newspaper to give
its readers what the mellowed
judgment of an editor knows they
need, rather than what they think'
they want, even if, at the outset,
it entails some dwindling in circu-
lation and revenue figures . . .
What men need is inspiration
and mature unselfish guidance by
men and women who are sparked
by the eternal flame of a high mis-
sion. And I say there is as much
inspiration in the printed word
when it is enveloped in elevating
thought as the soothing orchestral
music I enjoyed during the dinner
hour in this hotel last night.
During the course of the week I
have heard the printing press of-
ten referred to as the great ve-
hicle of ideas. I should be hap-
pier for the security of the free-
doms which we are gathered here
in this conference room to safe-
guard if I could hear the Press
more often described as the great
vehicle of ideals.
Rainduring the week caused
further delay in haying operations,
according to R. G. Bennett, agri-
cultural representative for Huron
County, in his weekly crop report.
Considerable quantities of hay,
which was baled early, would ap-
pear to be spoiled, and some hay
bas been burned' in the field this
week. Heavy rains caused consid-
erable lodging in spring grain, par-
tictilarly in the north part of the
county, and the wet weather would
also appear to be having a detri-
mental effect in the growth of field
beans. Other crops are making
good progress, with wheat harvest-
ing being commenced in earlier
sections of the county,
A directors' meeting of Huron
County Federation of Agriculture
was held last week at the agricul-
tural board room in Clinton, when
Beu Drew, of the National Film
Board staff, was present to explain
the changes being made in Huron
County by the National Film
Board, according to Gordon M.
Greig's weekly Federation release.
R, S. McKercher reported on a
meeting be attended in Walkerton
where plans were made to lease a
farm in this section of Ontario for
a demonstration pasture program.
This farm• would have three pas-
ture plots and a record would be
kept of the returne from each plot
to show the advantage of improved
pastures. The Ontario Department
of Agriculture are the chief spon-
sors of this project.
For the past six years the Hur-
on County Federation of Agricul-
ture has been the sponsors of the
National Film Board circuit in this
county. Through this service thou-
sands of children and adults have
been permitted to see picturesque
and educational films of parts of
Canada that they may never be
permitted to view in their natural
state.
The cost of this service was or-
iginally born by the National Film
Board, but as time went on the
financial burden was shifted to the
sponsoring organization, until this
year the grant has been discon-
tinued. In its place we have the
Film Board establishing a volun-
teer circuit in the county, with a
film committee in each township
responsible for the showings there,
This committee will be composed
of representatives from all inter-
ested• organizations within the
township, such a$ Township Feder-
ation, Women's Institute, Church
Groups, Service Clubs, School
Boards, etc.
There will be set up a County
Film Council, composed of repre-
sentatives from the township com-
mittees. This year two projectors
will be available In Huron County
and two complete sets of films, The
I'ilni Beard Will eventually with-
draw these lflaahines and every
township wishing to continue will
have to purchase a projector of
their own or use one belonging to
a service club or school area, etc.
The National Film Board will train
people in each township to oper-
ate the machine. Their services
will be given free of charge.
This system puts the success of
the film showings squarely on the
township committees and unless
you appoint interested and active
members to your committee. the
chances for the survival of this
very worthwhile service in your
community is very small, warns
Mr. Greig.
The Huron County Federation of
Agriculture has been pleased to
sponsor such a worthwhile project
for •the past six years and will re-
main an interested member of the
County Film Board.
Speaking on the subject of Eco-
nomic Controls in the event of an-
other global war, Dr. Herb Han-
nam, the President of the Cana-
dian Federation of Agriculture, ,has
this to say: "If in the event of
another war the economy is to be
controlled, a better balance can be
established by imposing controls
at the very outset, rather than de-
lay for a year or two.
"When Canada adopts economic
controls again there should be a
definite agreement that such con-
trols would not be released until
all danger of inflation, such as we
have experienced in the past few
years, has passed.
"While wo do not believe that
another war in inevitable, yet the
threat of war is sufficiently great
that a program of all-around pre-
paredness is the only wise course.
For economic controls, the Govern-
ment would be well advised to
name a commission immediately to
study and recommend the proper
balance within our economy which
would be used as a basis -for just
and effective over-all controls, if
and when they are needed."
The Huron County Cream Pro-
ducers survey on the margarine
question is making favorable pro-
gress and by next week we hope
to be able to publish complete re-
turns from several townships. So
far there are' not nearly as many
farmers using margarine as some
sources would .have us believe.
