In proposing the toast to the ladies present, Lion "Bun" Hall said it wus a privilege, In the beginning, he said, God created man, but later from neces- sity, and to make creation complete, woman was crated, He commended the ladies for fulfilling their function of giving man sons and daughters, for keeping homes, preparing meals, scrub• bing floors, and picking up after the men, Women do many things that man gets credit for, and have been instru- mental In helping lift men up to the pinnacle of success and greatness, He said the lions were glad to have them at some of their meetings. Replying to Lion "Bun", Mrs. Mc. Dougall said his toast was more than they deserved, Being at every meet - Ing she said she almost felt like a lion, (Mrs. McDougall is club pianist), and enjoyed very much the fellowship of the club. She referred to the Lions Code of Ethics'and how the lions lived up to them, Lion President Jack also expressed his pleasure at having the ladies present for the evening.

Lion Ray Mudill, on behalf of the lions and ladies, thanked the ladies of the Trinity Anglican Guild for the fine meal, Miss Ella Metcalf replied On the entertainment agenda, Mors Art Watson and Walter Buticll per- formed a daring dance called "The Green Urn" which caused quite a sen- sation, Lion Art Watson, with little time for preparation, gave a challenging talk on our responsibility to our community. It being charter night, he made refer- ence to the Lions Code as a basis for good community living. A community is a group of people having common interests. If we fall, the community fails, he said. We have privileges and fellowships that we can only have in our club and community, We can't have Homes without a community. In a community we have a sense of se • curity. iWe have a responsiblllty to our churches, schools and other institutions in our village, and it is our duty to In terest others in this responsibility. We have a responsibility to our children and should see that they have every opportunity and privilege, Lion Art said in many cases we have delinquent parents rather than delinquent chil- dren. We must feel a real challenge If we do our duty to our community, Lion President Jack thanked Lion Art for a fine talk and for the good work he had done in the club during the. past year, The meeting closed with the Lions Roar.

Much of the land required extra working due to the heavy rains, and the presence of grass and weeds,. Trac- tors were seen in the field from day- break and on into the night by head• lights. The planting is pretty well complet- ed now, and good weather will be 1 needed, particularly at critical stages. if the crops are to fill out properly, Everything is behind schedule, ever, the trees which are almost now in full occupied by the hired man was burned to the ground with a loss of 18 head of Holstein cattle, 10 pigs, 600 pullets, ono 1 about 1,000 bus, of grain, The barn's dimensions was 48'x80'.

Everyone loves his neighbour's dog until he sees him bright and early some morning mistaking his favourite cabbage plant for a hydrant. Right then Fido's popularity drops to a new Tow, Dog owners should heed the warning as issued by the Chief, otherwise Fido may find himself peering through the netting on the back end of a dog cat- cher's wagon. From now until the end of Septem- ber, Pop had better limber the old mutt up each n':'it on the end of a leash. It will help t.:ke the swelling out of Pop's ageing bones rnd make life bear- able for Fido at the s_me time. • Donald Young, Of Byron, New Telephone Lineman Kenneth E.

H, Wilford, who is currently sponsoring 'The Feast of the Penin- sula" at the Town of Forest, was in Blyth Tuesday afternoon, and while visiting at The Standard Office, said very shortly he would ask for a meeting of the Community Centre Parks Board, of Blyth, to discuss fut- ure plans for the Western Ontario Trade Fair, the third annual showing of which was held here May 15.13, Mr. 'Wilford remarked that he is 100 percent in accord with exhibitors and participants who want the Fair to con•• tinue on the Blyth site, He is also in cgreement with many who have asked him to consider a later date for the Fair, probably the last week in May, Exhibitors have continued to express themselves that there is a need for - such an annual show in this district. In this smc connection, 141r. Wilford has fully decided to operate three links of the Western Ontario Trade Fair- , one in this area, one west of London, - and one east of Stratford. This too has - been suggested by exhibitors, who could then prepare their exhibits on a more elaborate scale, preparatory to displaying at all three Fairs. One of the three Fairs would also be easily accessible to the population west of 'the Toronto district. "The Feast of the Peninsula" which lake, place at Forest over the Domin- ion Day holiday week -end, starting on Sunday and ending Wednesday, is shaping up very rapidly to be an out- , standingg show, Speaking of co-oper- • ation within the Town of Forest, lilt, Wilford had contracts froni 15 Forest merchants and business people, who already have purchased display space for the Fair, with the promise of al - 1 f most sixty local business establish- anents. He is receiving wholehearted support from Forest organizations, a epresentative group of whom visited the Fair here. Vnrious committees have been set up representing the Town Council, Retail Merchants Association, Ministerial Association, Rotary Club, land the Coffee Club. 'lite Coffee Club is an interesting group, and one which according to Mr. Wilford, promotes an excellent feeling of good will among the Forest merchants who, at ten o'clock each morning break off their duties and congregate at a local res- taurant for a coffee break. Mr. Wilford is extending a cordial in- vitation to all his friends in this dis- trict to take advantage of the Dominion Day holiday to drive down to Forest and see the show. On the Sunday evening, July 1st, a monster outdoor service will be held for which all services in Forest chur- ches will be cancelled, so that people mny attend.

ANNE I4IPST "Dear Anne HIrst: Once you printed the story of an aged mother neglected by all her children, and you implied they would suffer according I y, through the law of retribution. What do you think will happen to this woman I write you about? She never visited her ill mother for years, and never cared how the old lady was getting along. Yet she still enjoys the best there is in life. Her husband's income has more than doubled during the last few years, her two children still love her dear- ly. I'm not saying they shouldn't, but why does she have every- thing when she cheated her own mother of any filial affection? "That mother was my mother's best friend. Left a widow, she went to work to send this girl through college, and deprived herself of genteel living that her daughter might have the best and meet the nicest people. Lit- erally, she died a year ago of a broken heart, because her only girl was too busy (and consider- ed herself too superior) to bother with an old and failing parent. Will this daughter, too, get her come-uppance? You must know many such situations. Maybe I'm not a good Christian, but it would cheer me up if I thought she would be punished in her lifetime.

RETRIBUTION * Many letters have come to me • that suggest a son or daughter • who forgets his or her mother • pays for It in the end. In my * personal experience, I have • known two instances compar- * able to the one you quote, One • son married and moved to the • coast, and he never so much • as opened the letters his moth- • er wrote him every week, If * it had not been for his wife, * the mother would never have • heard anything of him as long * as she lived, For some years • he prospered, but recently he * was stricken with an incurable * disease, and he rages at his fate. • retribution? Perhaps. • The daughters of another * wonderful mother not only no- * glected her parents, but was * actually cruel to them, She lost • her only child a year ago, and • she wonders why. * In the case you cite, this * daughter may indeed be enjoy- * ing all the good things•of life • —but who can predict how her * children will treat her when she * grows old and troublesome? • They may turn their backs — * or they may not. Often one * does not live long enough to • know what punishments awaits • such a heartless person, * In contrast to these examples * the parents of five married chil- * dren I know came east recently * to visit them; the mother is * frail, and felt it might be the • last time she could see them, * for they were scattered across * the land. Every child visited • her, bringing their children and * grandchildren, and I know that * one couple borrowed money for * the trip. She was the beloved • centre of attention; they pour- * ed out their love and gratitude • as only good children can. • Their visit was a continuous * triumph for her, and they left • her with a heart full of thanks- * giving and peace. • Next time such righteous in- • dignation gets you down, think • of the cherished parents you * know whose old age is made * beautiful by the reverence of '* their families — and multiply * their number by the thousands * like them. It is a more cheer- * ing thought to live with. * * BRIEF ANSWERS To "Discouraged": Show all the letters the soldier wrote you to your mother, and promise her that from now on she will see each one as it arrives. I think she will relent. ,, * * To "undecided": I cannot agree with your attitude. You took ex- ception to a natural incident that involved your husband, instead of understanding it for the innocent one it was. I suggest you get this straightened out with him before he loses all patience with you. To "Worried Now": It is pos- sible to overdo apologies. This boy is annoyed that you keep bringing up the matter, though I understand why you insist Later, he will realize he has been unreasonable. Until he docs, keep silent, • * * To "Perplexed": Instead of be- ing heartbroken that your sol- dier's letters come seldom now, remind yourself that many situ- ations which do not involve you can prevent his frequent writing, Being understanding now is your role, so play it well. * * * To "Sad Bob": If you persist in your attentions to this girl, she will lose all respect for you. She has been frank to say that she prefers the other man, and that is that.

A woman I knew slightly came in one day, and asked if I had ever heard of Rudyard Kipling. "Who is Rudyard Kipling?" I asked, or words to that affect. She gave me a copy. of John Lovell's edition of Barrack Room Ballads. I read it. Of course you know how youngsters (I was in my 20's) are carried away by enthusiasm for a book. I was carried away by that one, and the odd thing is I have never changed my mind, I thought then, and I think now, that Rudyard Kipling was the greatest writer of my generation, , Lhave always had the run of Frank Doubleday's publishing offices; I worked for him once, and my brother was his partner. Doubleday was noted for his enormous wastebasket, which stood up higher than his desk. One day I was in his office, and noticed some galley proofs just within my reach in his waste- basket, "What are those, Effendi?" I asked, "Oh, those are the galleys of Kim. We've gone into pages, and we don't need the galleys," 1 fished the proofs out. There seemed to be two or three hun- dred corrections in Kipling's hand, "Look here, Effendi," I said, "fifty-fifty on what I get for these," The great Kipling collector of that time was a man named Wil- liamson. He got a bargain when he paid me $750 for the galleys, As Kipling became better known, copyright protection on his works grew important. Until recently it was necessary in such cases, under American copyright law, to make separate printings, , I remember as if it were yesterday the time when Double- day, my brother Sam, and Kip- ling stood by the press while the special copyright printing of The White Man's Burden -came off, The edition was ten copies, and then the type was destroyed, — From "The Adventures of a Treasurer Hunter," by Charles P. Everitt, Drive With Care "GIRL IN THE" . . Joyce Mc- Guire wears a slightly altered version of the ad man's famous attire, the gray flannel suit. Joyce has been named "The Girl in the Gray Flannel Suit" by the National Industrial Advertisers' Association, ITIS APPROACII Tide magazine gets into the act by this story of Jim Hack, veteran agent of the New York Life Insurance Company, and how he sold his first big policy years ago in Peoria, Illinois, Hack approached the prospect and asked in a faint, uncertain tone: "You don't want to buy any life insurance, do you?" The prospect, a big, bluff bas- so with an enviable reputation as a Sales Manager, roared that he certainly did not. Hack then mumbled: "I thought you didn't," and shuffled around looking at his feet making for the door but not quite getting there. The Sales Manager called him back, "Look here," he said, "my job is to hire and train salesmen and you're just about the worst specimen I've ever seen. You'll never sell people anything by asking if they don't want it," And so on and so on. At the end of the lecture the Sales Man- ager had another idea and said: "Apparently you're just starting out and need a break if anyone ever did, so I'll sign for a $10,000 policy right now. Where's .the blank?" 1 -lack produced it and soon the deal was closed. But the Sales Manager wasn't through, "One last word of, advice, young man," he said, "Learn a few standard, organized sales talks." "Oh, I've already done that," said Hack. "I've got a standard ready-made talk for every type of prospect. What you just heard is my organized approach to Sales Managers," RONICLES °FGINGEdol.tne D ClRFAarkaRM C}uaxv "I'm worried," said Partner as he carne into dinner one day last week, "Oh, and what's the matter now?" (I was prepared for any- thing --a sick cow, a dead calf, contrary hens, bridge washed away or a flooded stable,) So I was quite surprised at the answer I got. "I'm worried," re- peated Partner, "because I hav- en't heard the frogs yet, and I can't remember a spring with- out them." "You're right, Come to think of it I haven't heard them either —not here anyway," So now we are wondering , , . is the ab- sence of frogs peculiar to this district, or is it the same else- where? If,so what is the reason? Yes, I know it has been cold but we have had other cold springs and on sunny days we would hear the frogs, Could it be the songsters' of the swamp have succumbed to some kind of disease? I hope not. Wouldn't it be strange on warm, summer evenings not to hear the frogs? Perhaps they just got tired of waiting for the spring and de- cided to try a period of hiber- nation. Come to think of it that isn't such a bad idea. Wouldn't it be nice to sleep through the bad weather and wake up some morning lo find spring definitely here? But since that isn't pos- sible we just have to do the best we have with what we've got. Like the sparrows. DId you know the sparrows recently held a council and decided they couldn't wait until the shrubs were in leaf—they were going to raise a family anyway. So now they are building nests among the bare branches—and that is something I haven't seen before. Flowering bulbs have also decided to defy the weather and are bravely forcing their growth through the soil. That I was glad to see because last spring I planted a number of bulbs among the trees bordering a nearby field. And then Part- ner let the calves out to pasture and I was quite sure they would gobble up the green shoots and root out my bulbs. But they evidently didn't as there are shoots coming up in exactly the right places. So maybe this year the calves will have daffodils and narcissi to feed on. I was really anxious about those bulbs as they were more or less of an experiment. Fall bulbs planted in the spring I am sure I spoke of it in this column last year about finding a basket of forgotten bulbs in the woodshed, matted and grown together just as if they were in the ground. And I separated and planted them. And now here they are, having survived pasturing calves and the cold spring. Speaking again of the unsea- ' sonable weather it just occurred to me if we can't get on with the spring work we might as well prepare for the fall. And I mean that quite seriously, Yes, indeed, because do you know the advance fall fair prize lists are already out including that of the Canadian National Exhi- bition, Now is the time to look over them and, decide on the various classes in which we can compete, During the months to come there will be many hours that could be put to good advan- tage—by those who have time to spare, and for convalescents, Hours when it will be too hot, or too strenuous an undertaking, to do gardening or baking, but just right for working on em- broidered pillow cases or knit- ting a baby set. After all the success of any fall fair depends on the exhibitors. Haven't you sometimes attended a country fair and passed the remark— "Well, there wasn't much to look at in the Hall this year!" So , . , whose fault was it? If there is a dearth of exhibits in the hall who-Is•to blame? There are surely classes enough to suit everyone—for knitting, sewing, embroidery, baking, rugs, quilts and all kinds of arts and crafts, It has been said that we all have some special talent, that • everyone is good at doing some- thing, So the person who can bake an extra special cake, or has the artistic ability to do fine specimens of shell work, or is skilled in any other way, deli- nitely has something to contri- bute to her local fall fair -and possibly to the C.N.E. Perhaps ,you will win a prize—perhaps you won't—but in any case you will have done your part and contributed something towards the success of the fair. It takes time, and a • very special effort, to fix up a piece of work for the fair, But if we all followed the line of least resistance and didn't bother to exhibit any- thing at all, what would happen to our Fall Fairs? If we don't do our part what right have we to say "There wasn't much to look at in the Hall this year." You will find a variety of classes for your own local Fall Fair and there will be over two hundred classes waiting for, your work at the Women's Division of the C.N,E, The rest is up to you and me.

Manley Miner On Predator Control In the issue of November 22, 1954 of Sports Illustrated, an article appeared by Durward L. Allen entitled "Killing Preda- tors Won't Increase the Game," This was copied by several State owned Conservation mag- azines. Manly F. Miner, son of the late Jack Miner, makes the following reply; In the spring of 1954 some- thing came to our Sanctuary, night after night for fourteen nights in succession, each time taking a mallard. duck oft her nest. Not only did the creature devour the duck, but also the setting of eggs beneath her, num- bering from fourteen to eigh- teen. At the time we did not know what type of predator it could be that would have such a food hunger as this, and as it would not come to exactly the same spot a second time we had to set traps near other live ducks on their nests; thus we were unable to catch this pre- dator until, as already stated, this destruction had gone on for fourteen nights. It turned out to be a mother raccoon weighing nearly twenty-five pounds. Had we not caught and destroyed this predator, not only she, but also every one of her offspring, would be creating the same havoc this spring, This being the case, I surely cannot agree with Mr. Allen when he con- tends that "Killing predators will not increase game." The fact is that this one coon de- stroyed not only fourteen mother ducks, or breeders; but also de- stroyed fully two hundred duck eggs. Had these eggs been left to hatch and mature,without danger from predators, from the egg stage to full-grown birds, It would have meant an increase of perhaps one hundred and fifty ducks. Then look at the timber wolf situation in northern Ontario. I was with my late father when we saw thirty-eight Red Deer In one day. Timber wolves came in and increased — a species of timber wolf that some weigh nearly one hundred pounds. The next fall, during late October or early November when there was only one inch or so of Ur snow, we tracked different packs of these wolves; and their tracks led us to as many as thirteen deer carcasses in one day, mostly does (females) and fawns. I am advised that in some areas today there Is not a deer track to be seen, let alone a deer. Yet look at Pennsyvania and Michigan, where there are no timber•wol- ves. In these two States, in the face of an army of hunters each fall, it has been found necessary to permit the females to be shot in order to reduce the herds to reasonable numbers. Let us consider the pheasant situation: Pelee Island, in Lake Erie, is only some eight or ten miles from my home, which has enabled me to observe the situa- tion there at first hand and continuously. The numbers of pheasants have increased during the last twenty-flve years from the start of two dozen birds. On the island named, only a few square miles in extent but where there are no predators, pheasants have become so numerous that during the last ten or more year s, one thousand hunters have harvested approximately fifteen thousand (15,000) cock birds annually; and lately it has become necessary to, allow hen birds to be shot in order to re- duce the flocks, which in spite of the previous great annual slaughter continued to increase. Think of the great estates in both England and Scotland. On some of these the game pre- serve dates back three hundred, or more years; and during that time gatekeepers have controlled the. predators both night and day. The result is that pheasant and grouse are so numerous that sportsmen go from New York and other parts of America, each fall, to hunt. One autumn, a few y e a r s ago, five New York sportsmen shot four thousand grouse on one of the estates, or moors, in Scotland, in a single week. With the excellent habi- tat that exists in countless less populated areas of the vast stretches of North America, why should our sportsmen have to journey to the small island of Great Britain to behold a pleni- tude of game. or to the ten LIGHTEST GLIDER TO CARRY RIDER — Charles Hillburn, left, and Jimmy Banks, right, demonstrate what is believed to be the world's smallest man.carrying glider.

Trimble, a former slave, enjoys his 105th birthday by running a footrace with neighbor. hood children in Tacoma, Wash. Trimble says he can still out• run most of the kids around here. square miles of Pelee Island? They would not need to if the same amount of money were expended in predator control as is paid several of our University professors and game manage- ment biologists who are going through the country telling us "we will have just as , much game in the fall no matter how much is killed by the predator in the winter, spring and sum- mer months." It seems so inconsistent to have laws allowing you and me one or two days in the fall in which to shoot pheasants and other game, yet protecting pre- dators that commit the same act of killing on every one of the three hundred and sixty - five days of the yearl'And why lean back on the old argument that "Nature will balance itself," when the fact of the matter is that man, having upset Nature's balance, ought to be held re- sponsible for restoring that bal- ance. The predator situation has become still more grievous lately because of the low prices paid for raw furs; during the last ten or more years the packs of timber wolves and hordes of skunks, weasels and other pre- dators, have increased out of all proportion to the herds of game. And that is saying noth- ing of the increase in the flocks of crows and magpies which for three months of each year live practically entirely on the eggs of other birds. Most certainly we need habi- tat, food and shelter for our wild life; but what good are all these if ninety-four nests out of one hundred and twenty- three (94 out of 123) nests are going to be destroyed in the egg stage by egg -eating preda- tors? This is the true situation, as has been authentically re- vealed by the research biolo- gists of North Dakota, last year. Most certainly, upon contem- plating the foregoing facts — and many others equally pertin- ent which I can, or could, re- late — I am Impelled to repeat that I do not agree with Mr. Durward L. Allen when he writes, "Killing Predator's Won't Increase the Game."

Dissolve 1 ounce of pow- dered borax in 1/2 -pint of boil- ing water. Add 4 ounces of pre- cipitated chalk when cool, and beat until smooth, Then add 1 gill of alcohol. Bottle, and shake thoroughly before using. Q. IIow can I prevent the skin of the hands from shrivelling when necessary to place them in water for a length of time? A. Try rubbing the hands with vinegar or salt. The un- pleasant feeling will leave and the skin will be soft and smooth. Q. IIow can I prevent apples from wrinkling while baking in the oven? A. Slit the skin in three or four places with a knife before baking. Q. IIow can I mend a torn Tvindow shade? A. -.Lay it on a flat surface, bring the torn edges together, and apply a half-inch strip of adhesive tape on the side next to the curtains. Thal the tape can be painted with water col- ors to match the shade, if de- sired. Q..Ifow can I keep eggs waren after cooking? A. Even though the fire is turned off, eggs will continue to cook when left in hot water. They can be kept warm until needed if the water is poured off, eggs placed in a hot pan and covered tightly. Q. How can I best rinse blonde hair? A. An excellent rinse can be effected by adding a level tea- spoonful of borax to a gallon of water. It brings all the lights in blonde hair. Q. IIow can I save time when cleaning the table silver? A. Make a solution of one quart of boiling water, one teaspoonful of baking soda, and one teaspoonful of salt. Pour into an aluminum vessel and place the silver in it, Allow it to remain for a few minutes, then rinse with clear hot water. Clean the vessel at once. Q. How can I prevent the iron from sticking to the clothes when pressing out starched pieces? A. Try using soapy water as a starch foundation. Use one tablespoonful of soap jelly to each quart of water. Then add the necessary amount of starch. Q, How can I ntakc the scales of fish come off easily? A. They will come off much easier, and there will be no scattering, if dipped into boil- ing water for about a minute. Q, !low can 1 separate the whites of eggs from the yolks? A. By punching a small hole in each end of the egg. Then hold it upright and shake it. The white will pour out, leav- ing the unbroken yolk in the shell, WISHED LIE IIAI)N'T One employee for the South- ern Pacific Railroad wished he had kept his big mouth shut.

Weeds such as Chicory, Goldenrod. and Queen Anne's Lace may be colorful, but many farmers lose money each year because they spread from roadsides to adjacent fields. Weeds and brush can also cut down visibility on the road and so become a hazard to the travel- ling public. In addition many weeds and shrubs are unsightly and detract from the scenery. TheWeed Control Act of Ontario ex- pressly states that municipalities are responsible for the destruction of nox- ious weeds on road allowances, just as private property owners are resonsib• le for the control of weeds on their land. It is good law, good sense and good public relations for municipalities to keep their roadsides as well as their roads In good shape. . One of the first steps is to prevent weeds from gaining a foothold by mow. Ing, and planting grass seed on fresh surfaces, Mowing several times a year will prevent weeds from going to seed, Level clear shoulders and ditches fa• ' cilitate this work, Spraying herbicides for weed control may also be used. For information on these write the Ontarh Department of Agriculture, Toronto.

The president, Mrs, Margaret Hum- phries was in charge of the first part of the meeting which opened with tha Institute Ode and the Mary Stewart Collect ropeated in unison, Mrs, Wil- bur Turnbull, the secretary, gave a re- port of tie organization meeting and read a list of the officers for 1956-57, also the conveners of standing commit- tees. A letter of congratulation and best wishes was read from Miss Helen McKercher, Director of Home Econor n- ics Service Extension Branoh, Ontario Department 'of Agriculture, and a let- ' ter of welcome from the president, Mrs. Edith A, MacPhatter. and Mrs. M. Edna Maguard, Secretary of Huron East District Women's Institute, The roll call was answered by mem- bers paying to ,the Treasurer, Mrs, T. Dundas, the measurement in inches of their waistline. New members were also received at this time, each paying their fee of 50c, bringing the member- ship to 42, Delegates chosen to attend the District Annual In Brussels were Mrs, M. Humphries, Mrs. F.

Necessary equipment will be provided but each County Court House A large crowd attended the official opening ceremonies of the new Huron County Court House at Goderich, on Tuesday afternoon, May 29th, when the Ilon, Leslie M. Frost, Premier of Ontario, was present to preside over the official opening. The new building, modern in every detail, was built at a cost of $700,000, replacing the old one that was lost by tire, and which was built beginning ov- er n century ago, in 1854. Thus en Tuesday a .century of history Was re- called and completed with the estab- lishment of the new building. In his remarks, the Premier stressed the need for children to be taught what the new building stands for and to this end—amid scattered shouts of juvenile approval—he proclaimed June 4th a holiday for school children in Huron County and urged officials to take youthful visitors on guided tours of inc. building. Prior to the opening ceremonies, over 100 dignitaries were entertained at an official luncheon, while their wives at- tended a similar function at Knox Presbyterian Church. Two bands, the Canadian Guards l3and, of Camp Borden, and the Gode rich Girls' Trumpet Band, played be fore and after the official ribbon -cut- ting ceremony. , The County of Huron was incorpor- ated in 1841 and by 1853 judges refus c.l to sit in the makeshift courtroom in tate county jail and threatened to move the courts to another county. In 1854 the first courthouse was begun in th. "square". and it was completed in 1856, at a cost of 4,000 pounds. Changes made in the building includ- ed the closing of the east and west en- trances to allow for needed extra of- fice space, and a central heating sys- tem was installed. Premier Frost paid tribute to the county by saying that this portion of Ontario is the mother of other pro- vinces. The opening of the west can he attributed to men and women who came from these parts, The new court Louse, he said, is a monument to the justice, stability and progress of this community. He said, following a tour of the building, that nothing had been forgotten. "You have had a vision of the future of Huron, of the province, and of the country, for the century which lies ahead," the Premier said, "The children in our schools will be responsible for the country during that time, and they should remember the opening of this building and what it stands for." Mr. Frost asked the Hon. J. C. Mc- Ruer, chief .justice of Ontario, to assist with the ribbon -cutting. Mr. Justice McRuer outlined duties of judges and sketched the judicial system of Canada "This building is dedicated as a hall of justice," he said. '\We have fought two great wars to ensure we would not be deprived of our rights and liberties." Invocation and dedication of the building was performed by the Rev. R. G. McMillan, of Knox Presbyterian Church. Chairman of the official luncheon and subsequent ceremony was Orval L' Taylor, Reeve of East Wawanosh Town- ship, Thomas Prydc, MLA for Huron, introduced Premier Frost. Frank Fing- land, Huron County judge, introduced Mr. Justice McRuer. Other speakers were John V, Fischer, warden of Huron; R. E. Pooley, repre- senting Canadian Legibn branches, and Mayor J. E. Huckins, of Goderich.

Above, Betty Beal, of the Washington Star, portrays Ike attempting to hit a golf ball off the nose of "farmer" Mary Lyna, of the U.S, Information Administration, The "farmer's wife" is Patricia Wiggins, of United Press. SNAKES ALIVE — Standing at a relatively safe distance, Banker Joe Durham, catches a rattlesnake, thanks to a clever snagg- Ing device, It's all part of the annual rattlesnake hunt sponsored by the local Junior Chamber of Commerce. This year's hunt brought in 2400 live snakes, Venom is sold to makers of snake- bite serum and best of the snakes go to zoos. PUZZLE — What's the man do - Ing inside the machine ? At one time, any schoolboy could have, answered the question. He's a steam locomotive inspector, making a periodic checkup of the firebox of 'a King Arthur 'class engine in London, Eng- land. As the diesel pushes the locomotive down the track to memory, this sight will eventu- ally vanish from the transporta- tion scene entirely. Some Prophets Who Guess Wrong Space travel enthusiasts will not readily forgive Professor Richard Woolley, the new As- tronomer Royal, for his severe castigation of their dreams. "The future of interplanetary travel is utter bilge," he has said. But let them take heart. Pre- dictions of wise men often prove sheer clap -trap. Some planet ex- plorers may even be hurtling through outer space in Profes- sor Woolley's lifetime. And here are some good reasons why If we had listened to the "cold water" prophets of the past, men of high r e p u t e in their own spheres, we should still living in a semi -barbarian world, with- out trains, steamships, aero- planes, electricity, gas, radio, tel- evision, cinemas, typewriters, telephones and almost every im- aginable comfort and amenity. The Hon, C. S, Rolls, himself highly distinguished as n motor- ing and flying pioneer, once said: "I do not think that a flight across the Atlantic will be made in 'our time' , , moreover, owing to the lightness of the air, In which the aeroplane has to operate, I do not think it will ever be used for carrying either goods or a large number of pas- sengers." Frank II. Butler, the noted aviator and friend of Wilbur Wright, said this about flying the Atlantic in 1910: "A man of thirty May see the feat accom- plished but for myself I think the probabilities are rather against it." Only nine years later, John Alcock and A r t h u r Whitten Brown, both Glasgow -born, con- founded him and won a $50,000 prize by making the first trans- atlantic flight in history, f'arlier on, at t''n turn, just when the W r i g h t brothers w e r e experimenting with their heavier-than-air mach- ines, Dr, Simon Newcombe, a noted American scientist, scorned the very suggestion of mechani- cal flight. He argued that "no possible combination of known substan- ces, known form of machinery and known forms of force can be united in a practicable machine by which we will fly long dis- tances through the air." And he concluded: "May not our mech- anicians be ultimately forced to admit that aerial flight is one of the great class of problems with which man can never cope, and give up all attempts to grapple with it?" Yes, flying, so commonplace today, seemed "utter bilge" fifty- six years ago,. Inventors of all forms of il- lumination have also been caus- tically "bilged." When gas light- ing was first mooted, Sir Walter Scott, the novelist, commented in a letter to a friend: "There is a man here who professes to light the streets of London with smoke." Electricity, when demonstrated in Paris in 1878, caused Profes- sor Erasmus Wilson to write: "With regard to electric light, much has been said for and against it, but I think I may say without fear of contradiction that when the Paris Exhibition closes, electric light will close with it, •and very little more will be heard of it," No less an authority than Wer- ner von Siemens, the Berlin physicist and engineer, once wrote a treatise for experts on the incandescent lamp. Iie ended by statim his conviction that electric lighting would never supplant gas lighting or reach its efficiency. If scientists were so wrong less than a century ago, inay not today's pr o p h e t s be equally wrong, perhaps in a far shorter span of time Again, to return to Paris, when Edison's phonograph, a voice - recording instrument that fore- shadowed the gramaphone, was first demonstrated before a learned French audience, Profes- sor Bouillard jumped up from his seat, seized the demonstrator by the throat, and nearly chok- ing him to death shouted: "You• are imposing on us. Do you im- agine we are to be fooled by a ventriloquist?" Napoleon himself showed piti- able judgement, almost childish- ness, when he first met Robert Fulton, the steamship pioneer, Inspired by James Watt's steam engine, Fulton wanted to adapt it for navigation. But when he unfolded his plans, Napoleon asked acidly: "Do you propose to drive a ship %vith cigar smoke?" The steam engine Itself pro- voked derision and hate at the outset, That bluff north country genius, George Stephenson, fath- er of the "Rocket," foresaw the day when every civilized country would be interlaced by steel rails, along which steam -driven coaches plied for hire, Yet, when he tried to bring his 13i11 before. Parliament for the construction, of steam railways, he found' himself a national laughing stock, One MP rasped, "You all know that locomotives are driven by fire. If one of these engines is put upon the rails and rain comes the fire will be put out, You cannot, of course, wrap up u locomotive In cloths (loud laughter), They would be blown off by the wind (more laughter), , And if a, strong wind came the fire would become so hot that the boiler would burst," At his final sally, Stephenson laughed as loudly as anyone else, but for a, different reason. The absurdity of that eloquent mem- ber's argument convulsed him. . On another occasion, a mem- ber speaking in opposition to the Bill asked Stephenson to assume that one of his engines was tra- velling at 10 m.p.h. when a cow. strayed onto the line. "Would that not be an awkward circum- stance?" he asked. "Yes," answered Stephenson In his rich Northumbrian brogue, "very awkward — for the cool" Few outstanding benefactors of mankind ever stirred up such contempt, Initially, as Marconi, the wireless pioneer, When he first came as a "young crackpot" to England, he was subjected to every Indignity, On his arrival at the port, customs officers, probing into his suitcases and trunks, were startled by the com- plicated scientific apparatus they discovered. "The man's an an- archist," said one. So. Marconi, seeking peace to develop his world -changing Ideas, found himself arrested and his apparatus confiscated. Happily, a British engineer quickly vouched for him. But, almost immediately after- wards, a London newspaper, which should have known better, commented: "An Italian has ar- rived'— with a concertina but no monkey. It is a street organ on which it Is impossible to play, but it can make a lot of noise," However, the "concertina with no monkey" shortly afterwards bridged the Atlantic, so giving birth to modern radio's great achievements, Yet hardly had Marconi begun his successful ex- periments be fore old ladies started writing to the newspap- ers complaining about "all this electric stuff in the air." "It is crippling our health," they cried, in dismal chorus. "The man should be put away, and his godless contraptions burnt," advised others, itching to blot out a great man's vision and treat him as a dangerous criminal or lunatic, These examples show clearly enough that it is not wise to label every inventor's dr ea m as "bilge." One day the Astrono- mer Royal's derision of space tra- vel may make him look just as sillyl Fluoridation It seems to us that we must approach the question of fluori- dation from a standpoint of logic. If it is the government's job to see to it that we are all bristling with health, then let's blow the works, The water sup- ply can be made the transmis- sion device of every beneficial substance which mankind can discover, On the other hand, if health is the responsibility of indivi- dual people and not the job of government, let's keep it that way This nation was founded on concepts of human liberty. The government was to be the great referee, hbt the universal cor- nucopia, If fluorides are bene- ficial they can be bottled, pow- _ dered, tableted or otherwise pre- pared and sold over the drug counter as needed , .

Let's not remove the right of a man to make up his own mind.—Colorado Springs Gazette -Telegraph, NOT FUSSY "Can I go out and play with the boy next dodr, Mummy?" "No, You know I don't like him," "Then can I go out and fight him?" Ugh! We see by the' paper they may take a vote, over In Bun- combe County, on fluoridation of the public water supply; The purpose, of course, is to get flourlde Into the drinking water a! all the children, so they'll have better teeth. Fluoridation,. usually the sub- ject of bitter controversy, is a subject on which we've found it hard to get worked up — either way, For our guess is the results won't be so miraculous as to put all the dentists out of business; they apparently don't think so either, because most of them are for it. Nor, on" the other hand, do we anticipate all the dire consequences some op- ponents predict. Our chiefreaction is to1won- der about the waste of fluoride, If th'e sole purpose is to get fluoride into children, why not just prescribe it for the chil- dren? Why put it into all the water used for industrial pur- poses? into all the water used for washing clothes and dishes? into all the water used for bathing? Why, in fact, waste fluoride on adults, whose teeth already are formed? And why, in the name at all that is sensi- ble, give• it to the thousands with false teeth? Wouldn't it . make egt.ir,lly good sense to put the children's cod liver Foil into the public water supply? . Yes, sir, it would make just as good sense. And since it would, It seems reasonable to conclude that if we ever flu- oridate the public water supply, sometime we might get around to cod liver oiling it.

Tllfl'MN FONT Over a number of years, con- sistently high egg fertility has been obtained, at .the ExperI- mental Farm, Canada Depart- ment of Agriculture, Brandon, with the use of six or seven males with 100 Barred Ply- mouth Rock hens, Results with the lighter breeds have shown that highly fertile eggs can be produced using five males per 100. hens. • • • Hatchability influences hatch- ing egg prices and hence is of great importance to the pro- ducer. The production of quality hatching eggs involves every condition for the efficient pro- duction of market eggs plus several additional factors. These include: the provision of an adequate number of males to ensure fertility, the selection and care of hatching eggs and the provision of a good breeder ration. • • • Certain physical characteris- tics of eggs are related to hatch- ability, For best results, eggs should weigh at least 24 ounces per dozen. Eggs which are extremely' large or poorly •. shaped should be discardedas well as those with pronounced ridges or signs of shell weak- ness. • • • The frequent gathering of eggs is essential to prevent them from becoming overheat- ed, chilled or soiled. They may be kept in ordinary egg cases which are turned from one side to another daily, and stored in a cool, well ventilated room where the temperature is be- tween 40 and 60 degrees F. Frequent egg shipments void the rapid loss in hatchability which results when eggs are stored for a period exceeding sevn days. • • • A good laying ration is not necessarily a good breeder ra- tion. Breeder rations supply higher levels of certain nu- trients, such as riboflavin, manganese and Vitamin B12 which are required to develop and hatch the chick. The change over to a breeder ration must be gradual to avoid a produc- tion slump and should be com- pleted six weeks prior to the collection of hatching eggs.

Weight allowance le • Each year loose smut causes substantial losses to the farm- ers of Canada and each year the grower is confronted with the problem of controlling the disease. Several simple methods of control are now available and any farmer can readily treat' a few bushels of seed each year which will provide him with a supply of smut -free seed to meet his main require- ments the following spring. • • • Larce scale hot - water ma- chines adapted for custom treat- ing have been established in a few districts but the great majority of farmers must de- pend upon their own resources to treat their barley. One proven method is to cov- er several bushels of seed in a barrel or tank with water and leave standing for 64 hours in a room that is constantly heat- ed day and night to a tempera- ture between 72 and 77 degrees F. The excess water is then drained away and the seed spread out to dry, The drying must be dune rapidly to prevent sprouting, Fermentation occurs during treatment and this is accompanied by a foul odor. * • * According to Dr. L. E. Tyner loose smut was effectively con- trolled by a new . method tried out at the Edmonton Labora- tory in 1955, The method will be tested further but in the meantime interested growers may wish to try it on their own farms. The seed Is soaked for three to six hours in water, drained and sealed in milk cans or in large airtight pliofilm bags tightly tied after filling. The container is left for 46 hours in a room heated day and night to a temperature of 72 to 77 de- grees F. The seed 'treated in this manner dries more readily • than in the long soak method and no objectionable odors are produced. * • * Several million pounds of 2,4-D will be used in Canada this year to reduce the damage due to weeds in grain fields. Recommendations with regard to the amount and the proper time to apply the rnaterial are issued for different regions by Local Experimental Farms and provincial departments of agri- culture, * * * Since the herbicide may cause some injury to the crop if ap- plied at susceptible stages of development, recommendations outline the stages of crop growth when it is safe to spray. It is fortunate that these safe periods exist for several days, because unfav'n'able weather conditions may limit spraying operations on certain days. • * * J. R. Hay of the Central Ex- perimental Farm in Ottawa, re- ports that weed damage occurs when the grain plants are very young, resulting in reduced yields. Therefore, although the recommended time for apply- ing 2,4-D may extend over a relatively long period of time, it is best to make, the applica- tion as near the start of this period as possible. Also, in early stages weeds are easier to get rid of, and lower amounts of the chemical can be used for the job. 10. Poker stake 11.= and means 17. Ceaseless 19. Indefatigable 22. Garden tool 23.

GREEN THUMB Gordon. Situth Keep Planting For a great many of the vege- tables one can and should con- tinue planting at two week in- tervals right up to the first or second week in July. Beans, corn, carrots, beets, lettuce and other quick growing or matur- ing vegetables are in this class. By spreading out planting, we spread out and increase the har- vest and keep top quality com- ing along. With .this late plant- ing, it is advisable to speed growth with cultivation, fertili- zer, and if necessary, watering in warm weather. At the fall end of the season, we can pro- tect from the first frosts with some light cover of newspapers, old bags, or straw, When Weather is liot When the real warm weather starts one should make a few changes. In the flower and vege- table garden, a light cultivation once every ten days or so will not only keep down weeds but it will conserve moisture and tend to keep plants growing and healthy even in really hot weather. ' Watering will probably. be necessary in some parts of Can- ada now. Here a lot of mistakes are made by those unfamiliar with the likes and dislikes of plants. One thorough soaking of lawn, flower or vegetable gard- en, one that will take the moi- sture down a couple of inches, is worth a dozen sprinklings and it will last for some time. Sprinkling n'ever gets the moi- sture down more than a frac- tion of an inch and the roots must come up to the surface to get it, thus exposing them- selves more and more to drying and killing by heat and sun. Heavy soaking, however, does not mean turning the nozzles on full blast. The nearer we get to a fine mist the better. Paths Paths connecting upper and lower or gardens with lower levels, may need some steps, These can be made in various ways; building stones, bricks, concrete blocks or cedar poles staked down with soil or gravel pressed in behind. For a better appearance one should not have more than three or four steps together, except, of course, where the slope is quite -exten- sive, and two or three of such series can be linked with a lit- tle bit of level path. Also to add to appearances and interest, we can have the connecting path run at right angles to the steps. Garden paths may be made of many different materials; flag stones, either natural or cast, concrete,. bricks, cinders, gravel, or if traffic is light, a good piece of tough sod. Power Saves Labour Where the lot Is fairly Targe, a garden tractor and a power lawn mower will save time and hard work. These machines are not expensive and, given mini- mum care, they will last .for many years. They will do the work at least five times faster than by hand. It is a mistake to purchase too large .equipment, especially in tractors. The smal- ler types are much more easily handled and with attachments will do almost every chore, ex- cept heavy plowing. COULDN'T LOSE When a company's ace sales- man was transferred from New York to Chicago, his boss sent along a letter explaining that while he wis the company's best salesman, he had one , serious vice - gambling, -When he arrived, his new boss said, "Young man, I'm sorry to hear that you like to gamble. What do you bet on?" ."Anything," answered t h e salesman. -"For instance, I'll bet you $25 that you have a mole on your right shoulder," "I'll take that bet," said the sales manager, and peeled off his coat and shirt. The salesman paid off, and his new boss wrote New York about the incident, boasting that he had already taught the young man a lesson. In a few days he received this reply; "He wins again, Before he left he bet me $200 that he would have the shirt off your back five minutes after he met you," Change of Plans Like others in his league, this ten -year-old Little Leaguer had dreams of baseball greatness. He would practice . after school in the spring, and all day long in the summer. Nothing could discourage the boy in his efforts to become the best player in his town, After a particularly long ses- sion one day, the boy called his father out to the back yard and proudly announced that he was "hitting them over the fence every time." "Watch this, Dad. I'm going to • be a home -run hitter for sure." He tossed the ball high with his left hand and took a mighty swat at it with his bat as it came down, He missed. "Strike one!" he shouted. So he tried again, He took careful aim this time and swung harder. But again the bat fan- ned the breeze. "Strike two!" yelled the youngster. The third time he swung at the ball, he spun completely around and landed face down on the ground. 'Strike three!" he called lamely, as he wiped the dirt from his mouth. Worried about his son's wounded pride, the father ran to help the boy to his feet, But his alarm was hardly justified, The boy looked up and beamed at his father. "A shutout, Dad!" he en- thused. "Maybe I'm not going to be a home -run hitter, but I'm sure going to be a great pitcher!" Tips From Canada's Greatest Salesmen 1. Use the magic word, "you," not "I," constantly, Learn in advance your prospective buy- er's needs, 2. Don't Imitate the personality of a great salesman. You may learn from some of his techni- ques, but you must adapt sales- manship devices to your own personality, 3. Create a positive, favorable response. Your prospect is more apt to say "yes," If you radiate cheerfulness, courtesy, confi- dence. 4. Don't "just drop by" when you intend making a sale, or you'll be considered a bore. Have a clear sales objective in mind, and arrange an appointment with your prospective buyer. 5. Be a good listener, rather than a high - pressure talker. Sometimes, by first listening to your prospect talk about some extraneous subject - his hob- bies, his golf score - you can put him into a receptive mood to accept discussion of your pro- duct. 6. Be punctual in your ap- pointments, and present a neat, healthy appearance, In Death of a Salesman, Willy Lowman pre- sented a truism when he talked of riding to success "with a smile on my lips and a shine on my shoes." 7. Don't have a single "can- ned" sales approach. Be flex- ible, in case your prospect re- jects your first presentation. A good salesman always • has more than one arrow to his bow. 8. Find out who makes the real buying decision. In every organization, there are dozens of people who can say "no." Only one man can either say "no" or "yes"; see him. 9. Learn how to express your- self naturally in speaking and writing, Perhaps evening cours- es can help you. 10. Gauge that point when your prospect is ready to sign. A good salesman knows when his talk has "closed" the deal, then has the sense to keep quiet. - From LIBERTY AYS(1100I LESSON It. Barclay Warren, B.A., B.D. Claiming the Cities for Christ Acts 16; 6.10; 8; 5-11 Memory Selection; We preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; but unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 1 Corinthians 1;23.24. One of man's greatest needs is the consciousness of Divine guidance, The Psalmist wrote; "The steps of a good man ars ordered by the LORD; and he delighteth in his way." 37:23. But how can we know what steps we should take? There is often a period of indecision and wonderment, Abraham's servant wondered when he saw Rebe- kah if she were to be the one to become the wife of Isaac. Genesis 24:21. He said, "I being in the way, the LORD led me." As we take one step in the will of God our next step will be- come clearer. Paul, accompanied by Silas and Timothy of Lystra, was on his second missionary journey. They had visited the churches established on the first mission- ary journey. As they moved west they were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to go into Asia, the 'area to the south of which Ephesus was the main city. They thought to go north to Bithynia but the Spirit suffer- ed them not. So they went straight ahead to Troas. There in a vision Paul received a call to Macedonia. The party was now joined by the beloved phy- sician, Luke, who later wrote the Gospel record and the book of Acts. Paul struck for the big cities, Philippi, Thessalonica, Berea, Athens and Corinth. Hs pioneered the 'work in each place and 'one or more of his companions tarried to see the work established. After a year and a half in Corinth he set out for Jerusalem. He stopped at Ephesus and the people desired him to stay longer but God's time for his three year pastor- ate there had not yet come. He went up and saluted the church at Jerusalem and then returned to Antioch from whence he had started. Men with a Divine call are needed in the growing suburbs of our big cities today. There are many obstacles but message of the crucified Christ is the need everywhere, YOU GOTTA HAVE GALL A. physician diagnosed a man's ailment as nerves, and prescrib- ed accordingly. The fee was $6 and the prescription $2. The man had only $5. "Five dollars is ail 1 have," he told the doctor. "Lend me two dollars and I'll have the prescription filled." The physician gazed at the man, then said, "I have made a mistake in my diagnosis. Your nerve is all right, You are af- flicted with an enlarged gall. There's no remedy for that."
