Ten Eggs To the Dozen
Or 40 Hours a Week
More money for less work has
been the theme of labor negotiations
for some time. While the trend is
popular in industrialized areas, the
farmer knows the fallacy of attempt-
ing to get something for nothing. He
knows that before he reaps he must
sow.
A correspondent in the Dundalk
Herald has put the demands of labor
in the language of the farm: "In re-
gard to the constant complaints from
urban residents about the high cost
of living, there is the brilliant idea
abroad: that since industrial work-
ers are demanding a 40 -hour week
with the same take-home pay, why
not a 10 -egg dozen with no rise in
the price ? Or .instead of an increase
in the price of butter, consider 12
ounces to a pound and leave the price
as is. Three quarts of milk to the
gallon would do away with an in-
crease in the price of milk, and so
on."

Fall Fair Problems
Now that fall fairs are over for
another year, weekly newspapers
during recent weeks have been dis-
cussing the fairs in their districts and
commenting on the problems which
arose and which in another year
might be avoided.
The Fergus News -Record touches
pn two matters that worry almost
every conscientious fair director.
"Up in Palmerston, the directors
of the Fall Fair had a disappointment
this year. It wasn't the weather.
That was fine. It wasn't the crowd.
That was estimated to be at least
one-third greater than in 1949. Ev-
erything seemed rosy, until the gate
receipts were counted. They were
$40 below last year's figure.. Last
year, the day was rainy and the
crowd was small.
"According to Editor Art Carr,
there have been worried huddles of
the directors. It has been suggested
• that many came in after the gate-
keeper knocked off work at 3:30 p.m.
Others thought that too many com-
plimentary tickets had been issued.
The third guess was that too many
frugal people of Palmerston and dis-
trict had climbed the fence. Next
year, all these things will be watched
carefully.
"No such complaints seem to have
been heard in Fergus recently, but
there is another yearly headache for
the directors—the dishonest exhibi-
tor. That person has turned up in
the past and was back again this
year. There were complaints from
a number of classes. We could give
details, but it isn't necessary. Judg-
es and directors know the facts.
"There seems to be only one solu-
tion—to bar the dishonest exhibitor
in future: The officials may hesitate
to do that, because some dishonesty
might be hard to prove. But it's the
only course. Nearly everybody is
honest about things like that. The
competition is unfair when one per-
son cheats, and the judges let it slip
past. With the dishonest profession-
als eliminated, more exhibits would
come in from others."

New House of Commons
Rising from the rubble which re-
mained after Nazi bombs exploded
into it in 1941, at the height of the
blitz, Britain's new House of Com-
mons is now completed. It was for-
mally open'ed by His Majesty the
i
ding n a traditional ceremony of
splendor on Thursday;
yz neer House retains, in general,
dal/sties of the old,
with the long narrow chamber head-
ed by the Speaker's chair and seats
arranged so ' that the Government
and Opposition parties face each oth-
er—a centuries' old custom which is
believed to have influenced the de-
velopment of the British parliamen-
tary system and, in turn, the devel-
opment of democratic institutions
throughout the world.
All the woodwork will be of Eng-
lish oak—the traditional timber of
Britain — cut from trees two and
three hundred years old; the carving
has been carried out by some of Bri-
tain's finest craftsmen. Wherever
they look, members of Parliament of
alI parties will see evidence of the
warm bonds of friendship that link
Britain with the other nations of the
Commonwealth. The Commonwealth
has contributed most of the furnish-
ings of the House. Canada has donat-
ed the Table of the House; the Speak-
er's Chair comes from Australia;
the elaborately carved doorways are
the gifts of India and Pakistan; the
two traditional Dispatch Boxes come
from New Zealand; South Africa
has given chairs for the Clerks; New-
foundland a set of six chairs which
will go to the Prime Minister's con-
ference table; Ceylon has given the
seat for the Sergeant -at -Arms and
Nigeria has provided furnishings
for the Division Lobbies. Gifts of
wood panelling have come from the
colonies.
Changes inside the House will be
appreciated by British parliamentar-
ians, accustomed in these years of
crisis to long and arduous sessions of
debate. An entirely new system of
air-conditioning has been installed
which includes heating -strips built
into the floor and a special method of
providing a horizontal flow used in
older systems. The intention, in the
words of the designer of the installa-
tion, is to provide conditions which
will tend "to produce cool heads and
warm feet and not vice versa," and
an atmasphere like that of a fine
spring day out-of-doors.
Impressive for many years to come
will be the entrance to the Chamber,
already called the Churchill Arch.
This has been constructed from the
same stones which were in position
here in the old House.
What Other Papers Say:
The Last Sabbath
(Exeter Times -Advocate)
When Scotland was at her best she
was said to keep the Sabbath and
everything else she got her hands on.
Certain it is Sabbath -keeping Scot-
land was beloved at home and rever-
ed abroad. In proportion as she al-
lowed her Sabbath to become secular
she declined in power. It is said of
a certain much used concession line
that when one went down it of a Sun-
day evening not a light was visible,
as every farmer and his family were
in church. It is now said that every
house is lighted of a Sunday even-
ing. Few of those farmers are in
church. It was said, too, that scarce-
ly a farm had a mortgage in those
days but now in that same locality
there is scarcely a farm without a
mortgage.

•r
On December 11, 1875, the first
train ran from Wingham to Clin-
ton
linton over the newly-ocmpleted
tracks of the London -Huron and
Bruce Railway.
The railway was the result of
the effort put forth by Patrick
Kelly, an Irishman, who operated
a sawmill and door factory in
Blyth.
He had developed a coneiderable
about 21 miles west of the village..
Thus Lucan suffered an even
greater degree of disappointment
than that experienced -by Clande-
boye a few years earlier.
On that first train which left
Wingham for London on the morn-
ing of December 11, 1875, were the
bewhiskered reeves and councillors
from various municipalities ° all
down the line.

result of his discussions and agita-
tions, the Grand Trunk Railway
was 'first approached but they re-
fused to consider the proposition.
With even greater determination
Patrick Kelly went to Hamilton to
discuss the matter with the Great
Western Railway Company.
He told them there was plenty
of freight business in Huron Coun-
ty. There was an abundance of
firewood, tan bark, sheep for the
Buffalo market, as well as cattle
and flour to be shipped. He made
the proposition sound so interest-
ing that the officials of the com-
pany requested him to go back to
the municipalities of his territory
and secure subsidy guarantees—
which he did.
So the "London, Huron and
Bruce Railway' Ltd.," a subsidiary
of bhe Great Western was formed
and the railway later was built.
Wood was a "poor pay" load but
Patrick Kelly and, his friends had
thousands of acres of timber
through which the railway must
pass. They arranged to have a
reasonable freight rate on firewood
and tan bark before the papers
were signed. As a result thou -1
sands of carloads of wood were
sold in London and great quanti-
ties of tank bark were shipped to
Hyman's Tannery, London.
The building of the London,
Huron and Bruce caused much
speculation and concern in Lucan
and Clandeboye. Previous to this
(1858) the main line of the Grand
Trunk Railway was routed through
Lucan to Ailsa Craig, thus by-pass-
ing Clandeboye.
The Great Western Company had
secured subsidy grants from north-
ern municipalities and expected
Lucan and Biddulph Tpwnship to
pay their share for the benefit of
having the railway pass through
the area. At that time it appear-
ed to village officials as if Lucan
was on the most direct line to
London, therefore, feeling sure the
railway would pass through the
village, Lucan council voted
against paying the subsidy.
As a result of the :.indifference
of these two municipalities (Luc -
an and Biddulph), the railway line
was re -surveyed and built on a di-
rect line south from Clandeboye.
It touched neither Biddulph nor Luc -
an, but passed under the Grand
Trunk Railway at Lucan Crossing,

Education Through Advertising
(Midland Free Press Herald)
Acknowledgement of the effective-
ness of education through newspaper
advertising has been made again and
again by provincial and federal gov-
ernmental authorities.
Year in and year out adult educa-
tion programs are carried through
successfully and at relatively low
cost by this means.
Yet in the field of excessive use of
alcoholic beverages, one of the great-
est social and governmental probl-
lems in Canada today, our depart-
ments of education and our liquor
control authorities have been loath
to use this or any other medium of
mass instruction.
Over -indulgence is costing this na-
tion millions of dollars annually in
broken homes and broken bodies, , a
cost which is bearing directly on ev-
ery taxpayer. The statistics are in
large measure available. The story
can be factual, free of preachiness,
and fully and freely told.
Such an investment in adult educa-
tion through advertising would make
good sense and save good dollars.
practice the train received the
name "Butter and Egg Special."
There were no cushions on the
seats of the early trains, but if
those -old coaches could speak,
what interesting stories' they could
tell of the early residents of Huron
and Middlesex.
Besides the scores of farmers'
wives who went to London market
by train, carrying their produce,
the farmers themselves in their
"slack" time came riding to Lon-
don ou the "Huron and Bruce."
Many acquaintances were struck
up on the journey; horses and cat-
tle were priced; changes in pas-
torates in the respective villages
were talked over; the weather pre-
dicted sr blamed; Sir John A. Mc-
Donald or Sir Wilfrid Laurier con-
demned or eulogized; marriages
advocated or forbidden; tributes
paid to departed friends; even
names suggested for new arrivals
expected hourly! Indeed it was' a
friendly informal train.
On April 26, 1941, after nearly
66 years of continuous service, it
was decided to discontinue the
northern portion of this railroad—
from Wingham to Clinton—because
it had become unprofitable.
At a convention held at Gode-
rich at which ratepayers of Huron
put up a valiant, but losing fight
for the maintenance of the road,
it was decided that the northern
link had served its purpose and
the last train ran in April, 1941.
The first engines were wood -
burning and "speeded" through the
bush at possibly 12 to 15 miles per
hour. Later coal -burning engines
with greater speed were installed.
In more recent years a Diesel en-
gine has been used.
One of the baggagemen on the
London, Huron and Bruce for 26
years was the late Bill Sneath.
During the years he served (from
1909 to 1931) he made many friends
on his route; he knew his local
railway geography and after he re-
tired he wrote a few verses in
commemoration of the years spent
on the L.H. & B.
While the Diesel -propelled train
still.operates from Clinton to Lon-
don and though motor traffic has
greatly reduced the business on the
line, it will be remembered that
from 1875 to 1900 the "L.H. & B."
played an important part in open-
ing up the townships in Huron and
Bruce.

The October meeting of Huron
County Federation of Agriculture
was held in Clinton on Tuesday,
Oct. 17, with President Charles
Coultes presiding.
President Coultes reported on a
meeting he attended in Toronto
early in October to discuss assess-
ment problems that are confront-
ing rural people today. He stated
that the high school assessment
problem was the most vexing, and
that it was the same over the en-
tire Province. In some cases far-
mers are paying ten tines as much
school tax as people living on small
holdings in the same locality.
A committee was set up to make
an intensive study of the taxation
problems and bring in recommen-
dations for their solution. These
recommendations will, after being
approved, be presented to the Pro-
vincial Government.
The secretary was instructed to
write to the Rural Co-operator set-
ting forth the views of Huron
County Federation Directors on the
question of a forty -hour work week
for farmers, and also the sugges-
tion that farmers should receive
time and one-half for overtime
work. The majority of farmers are
not in favor of a shorter work
week and it would he impossible.
to consider time and one-half for
overtime, for few farmers actually
keep track of the hours they do
work. If a job is to be done, they
stick with it until completed, or
until darkness makes it impossible
to continue.
The annual meeting of Zone 6 of
Ontario Cream Producers was held
in Clinton on Friday evening, Oct.
20. Zone 6 includes the Counties
of Huron and Perth.
Mr. Harry Gowdy, of Wroxeter,
acted as chairman for the evening.
Mr. Gowdy Is zone director on the
Cream Producers' Marketing Board.
The guest speaker for the even-
ing was Mm. Wm. Rettie, of Fer-

tising committee of the dairy far-
mers of Canada. In his remarks,
Mr. Bettie outlined the success of

across Canada contributed approxi-
mately $275.00 toward an advertis-
ing campaign to promote the sale

In one of the hardest fought
elections South Huron has ever
seen, Thomas 'McMillan, the Lib-
eral candidate, redeemed South
Huron in the face of a three -cor-
nered contest, by a majority of
263, over J. J. Merner, the Con-
servative candidate, while R. J.
McMillan, the U.F.O. candidate,
lost his deposit.
Mr. Pearson Grieve, a well-known

engaged to direct the campaign for
the Dairy Farmers of Canada. They
propose to use magazines with
nation-wide circulation, daily pap-
ers, a select group of weekly papers
and a limited amount of radio ad-
vertising.
Considerable money will be
spent to promote the sale of dairy
foods by publicising menus and
dishes containing foods, such as
milk, butter, cheese and ice cream.
The success of this - campaign
during the next few months will
determine the success of the June
set-aside for 1951. If the advertis-
ing is successful in increasing con-
sumption, farmers will be pleased
to contribute in 1951, but if little
interest is aroused by the cam-
paign, we will find fewer farmers
paying into the fund next year.
Mr. Bab Jardine spoke for a
short time on the activities of the
Ontario Cream Producers' Market-
ing Board and considerable discus-
sion took place regarding the
Board's stand on the margarine
issue. A short film on United
States methods of advertising and
marketing was shown to a well -
attended meeting.
