Describing Burns as a poet of Huron P.C.'s Name Cardiff Federal Candidate Huron riding Progressive Con- servatives renominated Elston Cardiff as candidate in the forth - 'coming federal election at Clin- ton Monday afternoon. Mr. Car- diff, in his 69th year-, was first elected in Huron North in 1940 and represented that riding for three terms. In 1953, following redistri- bution which cornbined Huron North and Huron -Perth into one riding, he was elected in the new riding of Huron. About 80 turned out for the af- ternoon meeting and unanimously adopted resolutions expressing gratitude for the work of former leader George Drew, confidence in John Diefenbaker "soon to become prime minister," and affirming loyalty to the Queen and the 13ri- tish Commonwealth. Heading the list of speakers was George Hees, former president of the National progressive Conserv- ative Association, who accused the Liberal administration of "desper- ately seeking ways to cover up its huge surplus" by granting $100,- 000,000 to set up a Canada Council to develop a truly Canadian cul- ture. Others who spoke included J. W. Murphy, M.P., of Lambton, Marvin Howe, M.P. for Welling - ten -Huron, also spoke, as did G. V. Laughton, Exeter, president of the Western Ontario Young Pro- gressive Conservatives Association. Charles MacNaughton, Exeter, was returned as president of the Huron associatioa. Dr. E. A.

Semple,„•., of Egmondville United Church, drew for his audi- ence the picture of a man who, de- spite his relatively 'shortlife, left a heritage of verse that has stood the test of succeeding years. Suggesting that he, as of Irish descent, was not qualified to speak of Burns, Dr. Semple took refuge in the fact that he was of the Forbes clan, which he described as small—and respectable. There were many exaggerations concerning Burns that should be avoided, the speaker felt. While there were weaknesses, these weak- nesses of bombast, swagger and sentimentalism were offset by his self criticism. Burns was born in an era that was backward and narrow. But he was born into a family of high standards. Instilled in him were ideals of honesty, frugality, sim- plicity, affection and, above all, a thirst for knowledge. Out of this background it was possible for Burns to have written "The Cotter's Saturday Night." The Cotter's Saturday Night is the finest picture of life among the lowly ever produced by pen or brush, Dr. Semple said. "The scenes are tender and moral; they are solemn and devotional; they rise at length to a strain of gran- deur and sublimity, which modern poetry has not surpassed." Recalling that Burns' greatness stemmed from the home. the speaker queried the extent to which attributes of the home are today being neglected. Young peo- ple no longer are interested in the home and find difficulty of remain- ing at home for an evening. In the mad rush of modern life, reading has become a lost art. "The greatest reason for the imperilled home is in the want of family religion," Dr. Semple said. Burns had a loveable person- ality, an inspiring warmth in him. His was an enchanting personal charm. He had a tenderness for the weak. "But above and beyond all he had the uncommon thing called 'the common touch'. a passionate hold on all the simple elemental things that live in the hearts of Scotch Dancing A feature of the evening's pro- gram was Scotch dancing by pup- ils of Mrs. C. E. Smith. Those tak- ing part were Betty Jean An- drews, Sally Fox. Katie Scott. Elaine Oke, Katherine Phillips, Joan Bannon and Maira Malcolm. Piper was Peter Malcolm. Musical numbers which in each case demanded encores, included quartette, Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Stew- art, Miss Ruth Cluff and Harry McLeod; solo, Miss Sharon Strong; duet. Mrs. Frank Kling and F. E. Willis; solo, Walker Hart. Chairman for the evening was J. R. Spittal. Burns' grace was ex- pressed by John Beattie, and a welcome extended to the gather- ing by Lions Club president J. Scott Cluff and Ross Scott. A toast to Burns was proposed by A, Y. McLean. responded to by Dr. Semple. J. E. Keating ex- pressed appreciation to Dr. Sem- ple and J. A. Stewart to others who took part in the program. Rev. D. Glenn Campbell spoke on behalf of the guests. During the evening. community singing, featuring Scotch favor- ites. was in charge of Eric Mun- roe and J. M. Scott. . The committee in charge in- cluded J. R. Spittal, C. E. Smith, J. A. Stewart, John Beattie and Ross Scott. Crash In Stephen; Two In Hospital An accident Tuesday morning on the Crediton road in Stephen Township. involved two cars and sent the drivers to hospital for ob- servation. Property damages were estimated at $1,300. The accident occurred as LAC. Donovan, 23, of R.C.A.F. Station, Centralia, travel- ling east, and George E. Kellett, 30, R.R. 3, Exeter, travelling west. were in collision. Donovan was admitted to the Station hospital at Centralia, and Kellett to South Huron Hospital, Exeter. Charges are pending, according: to O.P.P. George Mitchell, of Exeter, who investigated. More, than 1.300 fires occur in an average week across Canada. according to the All -Canada In- surance federation. Total annual cost of such fires is more than $90,000.000. FORMER RESIDENT IS VICTIM OF ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING A story contained in a California paper tells of the accidental death of James Charles Love, who, until a few months ago, lived with his parents on the Rose farm south of Seaforth, on the Kippen road. The family moved to California seven months ago. The story: "Tragedy struck again last night in Willows. This time it hit the James 0. Love family of 215 North Sonoma Street. Dead upon arrival at Glenn General Hospital shortly after 7 p.m., was James Charles Love, 17, the family's oldest son.

Each pair of rats that lives in a granary this winter will eat about 27 pounds of grain, Mr. Bolton said. .4 Worse than that, they'll content*, ate about 10 times that quantity. For instance, each of those rats will distribute about 12,000 drop- pings and a half a gallon of urine throughout the grain. They'll shed about 500,000 hairs. And they'll spread many parasites, disease germs and other filthy substances that they pick up and transport on their tails, feet and fur, he warn- ed. Officials point out there is no doubt as to the extent to which rats and mice are present on the .. average farm, nor as to the dam- •''';1 age they do.
