Mere? You have certainly guessed.

Speaker Scores Community
Lethargy, 'Buck -Passing'
• "Real values are - to be bad in
banding together, swapping experi-
ences and building your commtin-
ity," Robert L. Stratton, London,
summarized in a guest ad43ress to
over 60 members of the local
Chamber of Commerce at Tuesday
night's dinner meeting in St.
Thomas' Parish Hall.
The former district manager for
the Bell Telephone Company and a
director of the Canadian Chamber
of Commerce, pointed to the ex-
pansive
xpansive movement of Chambers in
Canada, "where six years ago there
were only 100," he said, "there are
now over 700 banded together for
common good."
Danger of Communism
While complimenting the local
Chamber in their organization, the
former president of the London
Chamber of Commerce warned
against dangers which could defeat
Chamber groups. "The insidious
disease of community. lethargy,"
resulting in the gaining of power
by pressure groups, is caused by a
"buck -passing attitude," he said.
After a brief reference to the
national business evil portended in
government controls, Mr. Stratton
spoke of the greater evil in Com-
munism. "Through a delusion in
thinking," he said, "many ostensib-
ly good Canadians• are members or
near -members of the Communist
party. And in the apathy of our
citizens, our forefathers' fight for
freedom has been forgotten," he
lamented.
Emphasizing this condition by
telling of recent revelations in
Canada and the United. States of
subversive activities, the speaker
called for greater interest in such
work as, , the Boy Scout movement
and other youth organizations "to
develop inner growth and provide'
democratic direction." By banding
together, he stated., Chamber of
ndesiCommerce groups can keep out un-
desirable
rable 'isms,'

Turning to the practical com-
munity worth of a •Chamber or-
ganization, Mr. Stratton centered
on the importance, of "contact
points" and a town's good public
relations in work to acquire new
industries. Earlier in his address
he paid tribudes to Seaforth's may-
or, Dr. E. A. McMaster, as a "par-
ticularly robust booster" of the
town's advantages for potential in-
dustries
ndustries here.
The speaker charged his audi-
ence to guard against sloppy atti-
tudes in store management and
salesmanship, and exemplified how
this could be detrimental to the
business reputation of the town as
a whole. "Good training, courtesy
and sincerity to please" reap real
dividends•, Mr. Stratton pointed
out. Concluding• on the import-
ance of a community business spir-
it, he said; "No man can live by
himself,"
Mr. Stratton was thanked by G.
A. Wright. Prior to the speaker's
introduction by :Ross Savauge,
Mayor McMaster said he woes de-
lighted to see the renewed inter-
est in the Chamber of 'Commerce.
A former chairman of the local
Chamber, 'the Mayor said he re-
alized the difficulty in maintaining
a working organization in a town
of this size.
To Firm Here Feb. 25
Speaking of the work to get new
industry here, Mayor McMaster an-
nounded that a Toronto toy firm
has purchased the former Hesky
Flax building here and will par-
tially occupy the factory by Febru-
ary 25. "Contact has been made
with a fertilizer firm," he con-
tinued, "and there is a possibility
a plant, employing about '25 men,
will be set up here."
Prior to Chairman -Keith Sharp's
remarks, James T. Scott sang two
solos, accompanied by Stan J.
Smith. The dinner was served by
the St. Thomas' "adles' Gu
il
d.
Mr. Sharp note the speak
er's
remarks on buildi4s better busi-
ness had been borne out in many
instances in a recent address by
a London public relations man to
members of the District Hardware
Association here.
Continuing, the chairman inform-
ed `members that, in a move to bet-
ter attendance, three dinner meet-
ings with a guest speaker would be
held through the year. It was al-
so the hope of the executive, he
-said, to extend some tangible
means of support for the inatalra-
tion of a cement floor at the Com-
munity Centre. He mentioned, the
district Junior Farmers were par-
ticularly interested in this project.
Spring Shopping Party
Main street decorations at Christ -

Use Choir in P.R. Work
Following a suggestion from
John 'Bach that each merchant's
assessment to Dover the project
costs be high enough to leave a
surplus toward a Chamber fund for
installation of a floor at the Cen-
tre; Mr. Stewart replied that, in
view of the fact the Arena Com-
mittee has already some funds for
the floor, the as9essment should
be kept as low as possible.
As well, he said, the first pro-
ject of this nature should not cost
too much, since results are yet to
be determined. "However," Mr.
Stewart concluded, "I believe we've
only scratched the surface of po-
tential sales in this district."
Just before adjournment, Stan J.
Smith suggested to Chairman

McKillop Insurance
Report Shows 1952
Fire Losses Higher
A total loss of $3,700 was tabled
before officers and directors of the
McKillop Fire Insurance Company
at. the annual meeting here last
week. While direct losses for 1952
were down from the previous year
by $11,000, the report revealed, re-
insured losses increased by $3,200,
Re -insurance recovery is $18,269.
'J. Anderson, an instructor of the
fire marshal's office, Guelph,' gave
an address on causes of many fires
and ways of prevention. He point-
ed out that much of the material
in barns was combustible, and fires
spread rapidly. Because farmers
live at a distance from fire protec-
tion, more care should be taken,
he said.
Gives Fire Precautions
He complimented rural fire de-
partments on what they were
striving to do, and advocated well-
equipped, well-trained fire -fighting
units. In some cases, he said,
townships were being split so that
two pumpers could• be purcbased.
Chimney fires are not usually
serious' in town, he/said, but are
more so in feral areas. Poor chine.
nays and stove and furnace pipes
were false economy. Lightning
rods should be tiely-'inspected and
more care should be exercised, in
the handling of gasoline. Tractors
should not be filled with gas from
pumps unless the hose is properly
grounded, as static electricity could.
cause a flash fire.
He' concluded, "rural fire fighting
equipment looked expensive, but
can we afford to be without it?"
John L. Malone introduced the
speaker and S. H. Whitmore thank-
ed him M. A. Reid was secretary
of the meeting:

fans.
Sarnia and Seaforth are now
tied with one win each. Next game
in the series will be here with
London Saturday night.
Seaforth was able to hold the
Tars off until Green gave a pass
to "Butch" Lerman, who clicked
for his first of the night. The goal
came just after Seaforth had been
shorthanded, when Berger got; the
gate for crosschecking.
Just after the three-quarter mark
Steve Storey and Lennan marched
to the penalty box for highstick-
ing. As soon as Storey returned, to
the ice he picked up the puck in
his own corner, flipped a pass to
Pike, who relayed it in front of
the Sarnia goal, and Storey dented
the mesh to tie the score.
Third -Period Rally
Just after the starting whistle of
the second period, Lamorie and
Green staged a passing play to set
Leman up for his second of the
night.. This quick tally baffled the
home club and Sarnia broke
through on Rowland several! times
until Storey got the nod from Re-
feree Pat Garner for holding. Sar-
nia took advantage of their extra
manpower and rifled home their
third of the night, when Beauchamp
scored.
From the start of the final frame
Seaforth put ou the pressure and
had Sarnia hemmed in for the first
five minutes 'before Dalton Shine
flashed the red light for Seaforth.

came when Seaforth's last minute
powerplay back -fired, as Moffat
and Wark shook loose and scored
