Dressel kick- ed off and the game was underway (so were the players—up to their necks in mud). A rouge was kick- ed by Rennie for a point in the first quarter. Listowel, however, in the second quarter also kicked a rouge, tying the score 1-1. A cry of protest arose from the Seaforth fans when Rowland scored a touch- down, but was not legitimate, be- cause of holding. Jacobi made up for this loss when he went over for a touchdown, totalling the score 6-1 at the fieginning of half time, the convert being incomplete.

ALBERT BAKER, President. Se' i3e quarters of the spectators had re- treated to the warmth and comforts of the bus or ears, but the enthusi- asm was too great to stay away permanently.. It wasn't till the fourth quarter that a second touch- down by a pass from Jacobi to Rennie was made, and completed the final with a score of not 11, but 12-1, the convert kicked by Sandy MacMillan. It was almost impos- sible to recognize our players till they thawed out and washed some of the mud off; then this was un- able to dampen their spirits. I don't think they're back to normal yet. There will be a rugby dance in their honor Friday evening. Every- one is welcome. The date of the next game with Listowel is not certain, but anyway here is their line-up: Centre, Hobe; insides, Baker, Little; mid- dles, P. Wolcox, L. Cleland; ends, S. Kelding, D. Nina; quarterback, P. Hay; halfbacks, B. White, N. Kemp, J. McCreigh; flying wing, Doug, Shaw; subs., F. Thompson, D. Elliott, B. Morrison, B.• Burns and W. Cleland. The annual Remembrance Day Memorial Service took place at Victoria Park, Seaforth, Nov. 12, at 10:30 a.m.. The attendance was very good, with the presence of pupils from the three schools, as well as the townspeople, the crowd exceeded five hundred. The par- ade was led by the Seaforth High- landers Band and the program was well planned. The customary two minutes' silence was followed by the placing of wreaths. Questions Of the Week?

Greene in The °brie - tiara Science Monitor If you ever have occasion to write to anybody in Malta be sure to add the letters "GC." That is to say, George Cross, awarded in 1943 to the "Melita" of the apostle for "outstanding bravery," This is probably the first time in history that an island, or, properly, its people collectively, have been awarded a high military decoration. Yet it is far from being the first time the people of Malta have gain- ed distinction for exceeding forti- tude, for indomitable courage, for determined defense of their faith. You see the mighty ramparte of Valletta, from which, as Maltese will tell you, many an air -flung bomb was deflected harmlessly in- to the sea, and you know that up- on them the dauntless Knights of St. John of Jerusalem and other crusading orders withstood the Oriental hordes in the Middle Agee. WEBB - O'BRiEN ZURICH.—At the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Lloyd O'Brien, Zurich, Catharine Marilyn O'Brien became the bride of Morris Howard Webb,, of Dash- wood, son of Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Webb. The Rev. H. E. Roppel of- ficiated ibefore an arch of ever- greens and 'mums. The bride, given in marriage by her father, wore traditional white satin styled with a fitted bodice, Queen Anne collar, and chapel train. An heirloom appliqued illu- sion veil extended over bhe train, and the bride carried a cascade of white 'mums. Miss Betty O'Brien was her sister's maid of honor, and Mrs. Marion Mason was brides- maid. They wore similarly styled dresses of floor -length gold and emerald green, with matching pic- ture hats, and carried cascades of white 'mums. Judy Weber was flower girl, wearing a plund-toned gown with miniature picture hat, and carried a small cascade of white 'mums. Mervin Webb was groomsman, and Brian MacLean, ring -bearer. At the reception, held at the Dominion Hotel, Zurich, the bride'; mother wore a grey dress with navy accessories and corsage of American Beauty roses. The groom's mother chose a green dress with accessories in brown and a yellow rose corsage. For their wedding trip to New York, the bride donned a black velvet dress with matching accessories, winter white topcoat and corsage of Am- erican Beauty roses. They will re, side in Dashwood. HILLSGREEN The splendid palaces of the knights and of the Grand Master of the Order were not much harm- edin the war which was well, be- cause they are among the finest in Europe. In the Tapestry Room of the latter, 'with its matchless and priceless tapestry wall hangings, the little Maltese Parliament sits, exercising the large measure of autonomy the Maltest people have enjoyed since 1946, one of the re- wards of their high courage be, tween 1940 and 1943. "But on two occasions, in Janu- ary, 1941, and August, 1942, we came pretty near to hoisting the white flag," the customs collector said. "It was a question of food more than of anything else. We were down to an average of two ounces of bread a day!" But Lord Gort, the valiant military com- mander, was a potent factor in, sustaining the fortitude and the morale of the islanders, and though only two transport vessels out of a convoy of seventeen succeeded in getting through the Mediterranean o dock in Valletta's high-ramparted harbor, even that enabled the 300,- 000 Maltese—"starving prisoners on a rock," the German Kesselring said—to see it through.

Registration of Prepared Livestock and Poultry Feeds Most mixed feeds and single -in- gredient feeds must be registered to be eligible for sale in Canada. Registration of feeds performs a dual purpose. The first, ant per- haps the most important purpose is to permit the. Plant Products Di- vision of the Department of Agri- culture, to determine whether the feed is likely to be suitable for the purpose intended and to suggest improvements before the product is marketed. The second purpose is to enaible a purchaser to deter -nine, by means of the registration uum- ber which must appear on the lab- el, whether the feed has been ac- cepted for registration in Canada. At registration, explains C. 4. Phillips, Administrative Officer, the application for the proposed feed is checked on may points, including checks to see that the protein is at least up to the minimum stand- ard. set by regulations under the Feeding Stuffs Act and that the in- gredients are likely to be suitable for the type of feed. A follow-up to registration is the checking of samples by the inspec- tion staff by chemical and micro- scopical examination to see that they meet the labelled guarantees and contain the ingredients indi- cated. Labelling of all ground feeds when they are put up for sale is required under the Feeding Stuffs Ace for the protection of buyers. On the label, with other informa- tion, is a list of the ingredien,s. When these products are inspect- ed by the inspectors of the Rant Products Division of the Depart- ment of Agriculture, official sam- ples are sent to the laboratory for analysis. There a sample is ex- amined, with the aid of mise; n - scopes, to find out whether the in- gredients actually present in it cor- respond with those listed on the label. Miss Charlotte S. McCullough, of Plant Products, says the micro analyst has learned to recognize I.roducts used as ingredients of feeds, as well as impurities and adulterants sometimes present. by making careful studies of them. All organisms, both plant and animal differ from one another in their minute cellular structure as well as in their gross morphology or gen- eral form. Mineral substances a:if- fer in color, lustre, crystal form and many other physical Proper- t'es. All these small observable differ- ences are used by the micro -analyst in the recognition of ingredients. Sometimes, tod, the reactions which take place between a known chemi- cal substance and a feed inen edi- ent is useful in its recognition. The reagent is applied and the result- ing reaction viewed with the mic• roscope. This registration and testing of feeds is very useful in determining ;he quality in so far as chemical and ingredient guarantees are con Malta today is being rapidly re- constructed. Building material comes from the yellow stone and limestone of which the island it- self is largely composed. No wood is used, or very little, which ac- counts for the fact that during all the air attacks' no fires were set. The stone is soft enough to be eas- ily formed and "dressed" by hand labor; yet it is exceedingly durable. On it the soil of Malta is thin yet surprisingly productive.' As you come in by air, the land- scape seems now of an unbroken flatness. but when you have landed at the Lucia air strip, a few miles from Valletta, you discover that There are many elevations. On one of these is the town of Rabat be- side wbich is the old. walled city oP Paul's day, Citta Vecchia, where the apostle baptized the Roman rovernor and brought him to the Christian faith, consecrating him the first bishop of "Melita." This old "city" is one of the most interesting in Europe, being entirely walled and surrounded by mhat was once a wide and deep moat. On one side the ramparts descend more than a hundred feet and from them the entire expanse of the island is spread splendidly before you. Yonder to the north- east, across the walled green fields of the industrious Maltest farmers and the little chrome -hued ham= lets with the'.r church spires sharp- ly silhouetted against the Mediter- ranean sky in the clear island air, you can see St. Paul's Bay, where the apostle ,landed after the ship- wreck. Today's capital and metropolis, Valletta, is a community that fair- ly hums with activity. Like San Francisco in George Sterling's farm ous apostrophe, it is a place "where the streets go up and down," some of them, between the docks and the town, very steeply indeed. All are narrow and today the motorcars are numerous, though most ere for- tunately of the miniature variety. Valletta's main street, Kingsway, runs along the top of a ridge from the west gate through the high ramparts to the sea at the other end. Paralleling it are other streets as you descend to the Grand Har- bor on one side and to Sliema Har- bor on the other. Steps are often cut into the rocky foundations where the slope is as steep as the roof of a house.. At the end of Kingsway, just within the west gale. stool the Royal Opera House, a fine theater on a par with those of the Contin ent. Unfortunately this was a war casealty.

Apart from these, the damage to historic structures and monuments was far less than Yon expect, to find when you come to Malta for your first visit since the wpr, The Maltese people are an inrlus- trions and frugal -living lot, due to the fact that some 350,000 people are too many for this small island. the general living -scale is low, The tendency is presently to counter this by emigration. So far the main direction of the latter has been to Australia whither some thousands of Maltese have gone since the war and reported that conditions there were to their 111'-' ir,g and their reception friendly.
