Here we are sit- ting itting in a Latin glass trying to lis„ ten intently! when a rumbling and a squeaking announce the remove al of some, motor or part of the re, frigerator. The band is practising just below the window, and a warm breeze floats into the room; finally the cow bell clangs and the period is over. No one seems very anxious to hackle the clock in the hall, so we have been coming and) going with the ringing of the hand bell. Well, at least it's •a change. As many of you doubtlessly know that with theoconclusion of exams all those who have over 75 per cent as an average deserve to be congratulated. Last time I believe we started at the bottom and work- ed up, so this time we'll go in the opposite direction, just to be dif- ferent. Hardly at the very top, since it's almost impossible for any Fifth Former to receive 75 per cent, although it has been done. Here, then, are those in Fourth Form according to marks: Bernice Dilling 82.8, Ron Rennie 85.0, Shir- ley Frieday 81.5, Marilyn Hillis 80.8, and Shirley McPhee 78.7. Question of the week: Corrie, just what use are test-tube holders to you? Public School News Well, folks, here are your old friends from the Seaforth Public aohool to greet you with this beau- tiful weather.

CROP REPORT FOR HURON Cattle continue to move to mar- ket at good prices. All cattle are still being stabled due to inclement weather; however, feed supplies are still adequate and cattle for the most part are in very good con- dition. The hog market remains about the same as a week ago. Little or no work has been done on the land during the past week due to continued wet weather. Some fields are almost completely covered with water and ditches are running at capacity. Continued wet weather has had an ill effect on the winter wheat. While the win ter wheat came through the winter fairly well, the continuously wa- ter -soaked land has caused many fields to deteriorate very much dur- ing the past week. Clover and hay crops, however, seem to be coming along satisfactorily, and barring any extreme cold weather there should be a good hay crop. Senior Citizens It is very important that aged people should be aided in achiev- ing and maintaining a sense of usefulness to the community through social opportunities and productive activities. If possible, older persons should be given an opportunity to do profitable work. Meal Must's Each day's food should include a pint of milk, an egg, a portion of meat or fish, whole wheat cereal and bread, and two vegetables in addition to potatoes, one of them raw. Two kinds of fruit also should be eaten. Don't Be Autocratic. Many infant training practices such as rigid feeding schedules, in- tolerant or premature toilet train- ing and restriction of the infant's movements may be damaging to the child's development and also may affect his mental health later. STANLEY Former Resident Passes On Wednesday, April 25, there passed away at Hamilton General Hospital, Mrs. Edward. Lowden. She was ill only a few weeks and her death came as a great shock to her friends. She was the for mer Eliza Robinson, daughter of the late Edward Robinson and Annie (Orr) 'Robinson, and was born in Stanley 62 years ago. Her early life was spent. in Stanley, where she attended S.S. No. 5, lat- er taking a course in Tokpnto Deaconess Training School, Irons which she graduated in 1917. Then she trained for registered nurse at Victoria Hospital, London, and graduated- in 1921. On March 4, 1922, she was united in marriage to Edward Lowden, of Hamilton, where they have since resided. In her early life she was a member of the former Methodist Church and took an active part in its or- ganizations. After her marriage she and her husband were mem- To The Editor Seaforth, May 2, 1951. Editor, The Huron Expositor: Dear Sir: 'Could someone give the reason why Seaforth did not have wartime houses erected in Seaforth? Was it the council? Housing is needed in Seaforth, not only on account of Hydro con- version, but more personnel from Clinton Radio School would have been resident here if housing was available, and the expected growth of Seaforth from an industrial standpoint necessitated houses. Slum condition is no reason for not having houses. Look at other com- munities around us. Who is re - not having some foresight? INQUISITIVE Editor, The Huron Expositor: Toronto, April 28, 1951. Dear Sir: This reader was keen- ly interested in that article,by your "Farm News" columnist, summar- izing ummarizing a recent address by the mem- ber for Lanark County in the Com- mons. My daily work pretty well chains me to the pavements; but I know who 'butters my bread,' and that nothing of a very nourishing character grows in the city? Wlhen I reflect upon the fact—at least I think it is a fact -,--that the price 'differential' as between the 90 million pounds of .margarine procestled in 1950, and the same poundage of No, 1 creamery but- ters, say $30,000,000, I get the 'defin- ite definite imprest!on that the Canadian people are going to pay pretty dearly for this sudden aggression against our dairy farming industry, after 60 years of movement in the opposite direction. Of course, if the growth of Can- ada's population is going to be suf- ficient to, so to speak, take up the 'slack, as between the supply -de- mand situation, enabling our dairy farmers to continue to expand their essential services, then may- be we can ride out the present emergency. As to this, I confess not being in possession of the nec- essary data. As a famous American would put the matter, "all I know is what I see in the newspapers" co4lcerning the impact of margar- ine on the general dairy' farming industry. What I read, tempted me to the Idea that a saving (?) of $30,000,000 is going to be a pret- ty high price to pay for sabotaging our dairy farmers. In other words, the game is simply not worth the candle, and we are, to put it blunt- ly, making fools of ourselves, as a people! If there were a certain proportion of the population in the low-income brackets, say under $1,500 to $2,000 a year --according to family status—it seems to me that it would have been smarter andwiser to assist them to buy butter at special prices? With milk production declining, and thousands of dairy cattle and po- tential milk cows moving over in- to the more immediately profitable beef markets, to be placed in the opposite balance with increased population and still higher prices for dairy products, 1 confess I can't see that $30,000,0.00 "saving" get- ting hs anywhere, except in trou- ble. crrY WORKER bare re Ole Chrlatlan fid+ lg.***. ary Alliance, where they took alit active interest in its reiigiowa at.- tivities.
