Men'sCiub Speaker
Tells Of Troubles
In France
The paradox of France, the
country of vast resources and a
population of 42 million, on the one
hand, and the bitterness, poverty
and indicision that exixst on the
other, were explained by Miss
Margaret Baldwin, of Stratford
Collegiate, as she addressed the
Men's Club of First Church here
Tuesday evening: Miss Baldwin, a
sister of J. A. Baldwin, Seaforth,
spent a year in study in France
recently
Mounting inflation has wiped
out any sense of security and dis-
courages diligence. The condition
encourages selfishness • and dis-
trust and this, hi, turn, is reflected
in the actions of goverturient, the
speaker said.
-Despite 'the fact Frenchmen are
divided against each other, despite
the confusion, the country is mak-
ing a contribution in -fighting the
communism which thrives on the
lack of stability that exists.
The speaker was introduced by
J. E. Keating and thanked by K.
I. Mc.Lean. J. Scott Cluff • was

FORMER McKILLOP TREASURER,
MR., MRS. F. B. MEDD WED 50 YEARS
There was an early spring fifty
years ago and most of the seeding
was finished before the middle of
April, according to F. Bruce Medd,
former McKillop Township treasur-
er and well-known district resident,
Mr, Medd well remembers that
particular spring, because it was
on April 18, 1906, that he and An-
nie Stuart Leitch were married.

home nearby on west half of lot
17, concession 6, Hullett.
"It was lovely weather," Mr.
Medd recalls. "I • had, finished
seeding 120 acres before the wed-
ding and pretty well everybody
round about had finished plowing
and seeding." As he was walking
across the fields the day of the
wedding, he saw a small grey bird
in the stubbles. Reaching down.
he found a nest of baby birds and
all were nearly feathered. "That
shows how early a season it was,"
he said.
While there was almost summer-
like weather on the wedding day,
events proved that winter wasn't
over, and a week later the district
was blanketed with between 10 and
12 inches of snow. It didn't last
long, Mr. Medd said, and it didn't
hurt the crops.
Mr. and Mrs. Medd farmed for a
number of years in Hullett, then
