"There isn't any farm commun- ity which is as good for general farming as we have right here, said mill owner Laird Mickle. Close to 1,000 freight cars of On- tario wheat are shipped from Hen- sall each year. This approaches 1,000,000 bushels. "Around 'Hensall, beans are a big cash crop," said John Thomp- son, who exports a large percent- age of the beans coming into the village. Land in the area yields a high production of beans, making beans one of the most popularcrops in the district. Beans have been such a large factor in the Hensall eeononly that the Hensall Kinsmen have climaX- ed weeks of hard work with a Bean Festival. For this special occa- sion, bands, floats, games, stage shows and sports competition spark the entire community With festivity. "Combines have made the big change in bean production," said Doug Cook. "Larger quantities can be handled a lot easier:" Mr. Cook claims the bean crop Varna Groups Cancel Bake Sale The W.M.S. and W.A. of Varna United. Church held their June meeting at the home of Mrs. Lee. McConnell with 22 members and six visitors present. The meeting opened with the theme song. Mrs. Stevens read. the scripture lesson.

The large quantity of beans lost last year have made farmers hesitant about planting such a heavy crop this season. Indications show that barley has been planted in p1a['e of the beans in a number of cases. A particular advantage in hand- ling and growing beans is the fact they can be dried, although they are wet. Large elevators are equipped with driers to handle any required drying. Mill owners expect corn to yield a higher production in this area this year. Improvements in corn quality has made certain types particularly suited to Huron clim- ate. Corn is expected to become a leading crop in the area. Every indication points to a con- tinual cash -crop advancement in "Ontario's Leading Grain Centre" for- many more years.

EXAMS AREN'T EVERYTHING, LONG-TIME TEACHER TELLS GRADS Seaforth District High School's first indoor graduation exercises last Thursday afternoon .heard guest speaker. G. H. Jefferson, Principal of Clinton Public School, tell students, parents, friends and 'teachers, that "exams aren't ev- erything." Speaking from 47 years of teach - experience, Mr. Jefferson told his audience: that schooling only gives the pupil the togs with which to work. "Schooling and education 5t5 two different things," he said. "You have to educate yourself." Application of what was taught in school, combined with original and creative thinking, were the main keystones to success. Con- tinual self-improvement and self - education makes these two essen- tials come with a certain amount of ease, said the Clinton Principal. "On Your Own" "After graduation you are on your own," stated Mr. Jefferson. "Your lives will be either a credit or a disgrace to your home, school and church. Choose in your life what will make yourself and oth- ers happy." To fight present-day propagan- da, Mr. Jefferson told the Sea - forth graduating classes to arm themselves with faith, hope and charity. Putting the emphasis on 'charity', he said the word should be broken down into four key acts. "Charity is giving, forgiving, lov- ing and living," he said. If the graduates remembered nothing else about this special day in their lives Mr. -Jefferson asked them to remember and practise the interpretation of 'charity'. ' Valedictorian Following Mr. Jefferson's ad- dress, Muriel Dale gave the vale- dictory presentation. The graduating Grade XIII stu- dent"recalled the days of growing - up and developing throughout her high school education. Although the student couldn't see it at the time, high school days nfade big changes in young people's lives. It became quite obvious when the last grade had been reached and the decision for the future had to be made. "We have been taught the true meaning of co-operation and school spirit," said Miss Dale.4 "We should be able to enter the world around and make an effort to understand tile changes taking place." After the valedictory address, WINTHROP Rev. It. E. Livingstone preached his farewell sermons to large con- gregations at Cavan, Duff's and Bethel United Churches on Sun- day. The choir sang an anthem, "Keep Singing," under the direc- tion of Mrs. 0. Anderson. Rev. and Mrs. Livingstone left for Lon- don Tuesday. Rev. J. R. Holden, the new minister, arrived the same day. Mr. and Mrs. Middough and son and Mrs. C. Hawley, of London, were guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Hawley. The children of S.S. No. 10, Mc- Killop, enjoyed a bus trip to De- troit last Friday. Mrs. Glenn Haase,'Mrs. WilsonLittle and Mrs. Russell Dolmage accompanied the children on the trip. all of Grade XIII went to the plat- form to receive their honorary diplomas from Mr. Jefferson.
