year there have been six by-election
and in ,very case a Conservative
member has been returned to the
House,
Since the last session there have
been extensive changes in cabinet per- '
simnel. Following the natural gas en-
quiry, two ministers resigned and
three back benchers were appointed
ministers of the Crown. At the end of
1958, the dean of the Conservative .
party and former premier and mini-
ster of agriculture. Col, , Thomas L.
Kennedy, annn,ineed his retirement.
from polities. This was followed short-
ly thereafter by the resignation from
Cabinet of the IIonnurable George H.i
Dunbar, who for many decades has
been a good friend of all the people I
of Ontario. While the departing of
these senior and experienced mem-
bers of the government is a serious
loss to the government, •Premler
Frost, by his recent appointments of
younger and active Hien to his Cab-
inet, has built up what is acknowledged
to be a very effective and powerful
team.
It is anticipated that the session
will be a long one with corsic?:erel' e',
legislation to he enacted and a very
determined effort by the opposition 1.o
make or find issues for the general
election which every one anticipates
in 1959.

cial affairs and set forth in detail the
accomplishments cf his government,
which are many, and of which the latest
is the new .Province -wide Hospital

There was announcement by Trans-
port Minister Yaremko that enforce-
meat of the new point system for driv-
ers had been postponed until March
31st next. This further period .during
which the system will be tried out

victed In Court, should give all of us
the opportunity to become familiar
with the new system and to be able to
observe its rule;; and regulations when
enforcement starts,.

Letter To The Editor
The Editor,
BIylh Standard,
Blyth, Ontario.
Dear Sir:
On behalf of the Huron County Tu-
berculosis Association I would appre-
ciate your publication of this letter in
your newspaper by way of extending
to all who have helped make our 1958
Christmas Seal Campaign a success to
date, We appreciate the generosity
of those who, by their contributions,
are assisting in the control of this
dread disease in our County. Such
contributions finance free chest clinics
monthly in five County' centres, 'and
an educational program in promoting
same. The present campaign ends
February 281h and it is hoped that
many of the 6,500 resident8 of the
County who have not yet sent in their
contributions will do so before that
date, in order that our work need not
be curtailed. The officers of the As-
sociation would particularly like to
thank all volunteers who helped in pre-
paring the seals ..for distribution, the
postmasters and their assistants in de-
livering the seals, and Station CKNX
WIneham for their contribution of. ad-'
vertising. The officers of the Assoc'.
,tion also want to thank you, Mr, Ed-
itor, for the publicity that you have
freely given this important cause.
Yours sincerely,
H, Glenn Hays, 0,C.,
President, Iluroli County

A Sure Sign Of Spring?
On Tuesday afternoon Mr, Har;.
Gibbons came into the Standard Offset
carrying a small glass jar, which pos-
sibly nothing to maze special 'men-
tion about, out closer examination' dis-
closed a grasshopper, which Harry.'.had
found at the Clinton Radar School
• where he is employed. The little fel-
low is still living and the problemcon-
fronting us now is what to feed it, we
feel that anything that is brave enough
to be out and about in the severe
weather witnessed this past fveek
should have the chance to live to enjoy
the warmer _days this spring and sum►
mPerhaps the early appearance of the
little creature means an nearly spring,
we sure hope so, we were completely
'ed up with this winter at hast n
month ago. We think possibly the"fel•
low must surely be slightly "tetchpd,"
Fireside Farm Forum
On February 9th, 14 adults of 'the
Fireside Farm Forum met at Alia
home of Mr, and Mrs. Jim Howatt to
discuss "The High Cost of Farm
Equipment,"
1. Farm machinery is too costly
compared to the price of farm pro-
ducts. The cost of operation depends
largely on the operator. Some men are
careless and foolish in the operatipe,
upkeen and repairing of their machin-
ery. Some invest large sums and use
the machine only a few days in the
year: Some do not try to learn the
proper use and care a costly machine
requires,
2, (n) We are not in favor of co-
onerative ownership. Many a fire
friendship has been ruined that way.
A11 the ra"tnrs's lniebt want PIP pia•
chine on the same day, We believe:it
would be much wiser for two, three -
or four neighbours, to work to'*ettice
during parts of the year. Each oar
owning, operating and repairing
different necessary mnchine. The c•''
ers paying cash for the services or
buying, operating and repairing an-
other neressary machine. In this way
the machine is used more, the cost .of
nroduction to each farmer is lowered
and in each case the owner is respon-
sible for the upkeep of his machine.
Each farmer has less money tied up in
machinery.
(b) Some farm machinery is more
versatile than .others, ..The -wise use of .
it for any purpose other than intend-
ed by the designer and'manufaeturer
should depend on thorough knowledge
and common sense of the operator, It
could hn an expensive experiment.
(c) The price of..repairs is much
too. high. Many dealers and salesmrr
have little knowledge of thtiir imple-
.lnents. The manufacturer should
impart this knowledge to their sales-
men.
3. We are not in favor of Govern-
ment licensing of dealers or testing
regulations. We think this should he
the'duty and resnonsihility nf the man-
itfacturer, The less comnetition among
dealers, the higher the price to the
farmer. t',-+-
4. If repairs for Eurnnean tyro of
equipment were availahle we think
there should be an outlet for their
machines. Snlrn farmers who own
them speck highly of them. .

Check Your Wiring Nowjl
Fire Chief Ui"ges
Fire Chief, Irvin Bowes, issued a
warning today against faulty wiring in
many of our (community's) homes.
"Electricity is as safe as it is pos•
sible for any lighting, cooking and
heating method to be," the Chief said,
"but figures from the Ontario Fire
Marshal's Office show that one out of
every ten fires in Ontario was caused
by the misuse of electricity. That
means human carelessness was to.
blame. It also means that fires caused
by the wrong use of -electricity can be
prevented."
The Fire Chief made this statement
in support of National Electrical
Week, February 8 to 14. IIe is urging
citizens to take stock of the possible
electrical fire hazards which they
may have in their homes.
One of tlhe most common hazards,
the Chief pointed out, is the carelessly
used extension cord. These should
never. be used to effect electrical con-
nections for heaters, irons, toasters,
rangcttes or other heavy. current
users. Many of these cords. are just
not designed to carry. the load and
will often overheat thereby eventually
destroying the insulation and constilu•
tine a high fire hazzard. Many homes
in the (community) were wired before
the introduction of todcy's wonderful
electrical servants and are consequent-
ly unsafe from the standpoint of load -
carrying capacity when these appli-
ances are installed.
"To be safe from fire and to enjoy
all the benefits of a modern electrical
age," Chief Irvin Bowes suggested,
"have your wiring insrectr"l by' On-
lario hydro and observe the simple.
rules of, electrical fire safety, It will
pay you now and in the years to
come
Congratulations to Mrs. Lorne Pont),
of Anhurn, who celebrates lies' 22nd

The. Niners Farm Forum
The Niners Farah Forum met on
Monday evening, February 9th, at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Verwey to
discuss the subject "The high Cost of -
Farm Machinery.". The discussion
was led by Mr. E, Lapp, Following is
a report on questions discussed:
1. We thought the cost of farm ma-
chinery was away out of line as far as
cost goes. Although we thought cost
11f operation is generally economical,
2. (a) It was thought that individ-
ual ownership in the past has proved
the best.
(b) It was also thought that by
buying a machine that can be used
for more than one job would be more
economical.
(c) lvrost of us thought that farm-
ers could own machinery individually
and work co-operatively..
3. (at We didn't see what advan-
tage 11. would be to have machine ag-
ents licensed,
(b) No testing is required.
4. We though, there is a lotof roost
for European machinery in Canada if
for no other reason than competition.

ANNE RIPST
"Dear Anne Hirst:
I have a distracting mother-in-
law problem, but it is not like
any other I've read about. My
parents are dead and I have no
relatives to help with my four-
year-old girl except my hus-
band's mother, who lives around
the corner; I expect another
baby in four weeks and have
been quite sick. We are buying
our home and cannot afford a
sitter. We ask his mother to
help out only about once every
three months, and she always
complains that it puts her back
In her housework and her sew-
ing
"But she minds my sister-in-
law's children one day every
week though there's a part-time
maid there. Believe me, I don't
resent this, but she has not once
offered to help us since the baby
was expected, and she is even
planning to be away the week
I'm expecting. This means my
husband will have to take time
out from work to look after our
little girl while Fm in the hos-
pital.
"My friends and neighbors
criticize her bitterly, and 1 cover
up the best I can. She tells them
row much she likes me, but why
doesn't she prove it? If my
mother were 'living, how differ-
ent things would be!
Mrs. R. E."
NOT UNUSUAL
* Such favoritism exists in
• many families because the
older woman favors one son's
wife and not another. You
probably do not know the
cause of this, and it may have
started before your marriage:
this and other factors are no-
body's fault, and there seems
nothing you can do about it.
One might think that tha
coming emergency would in-
spire her to ease your burden,
but it seems that is not to be.
You and your husband are
concerned with the practical
details, and these ideas may
be useful:
Tell your doctor about the
situation and ask him about
the social service agency of
the hospital where you are
going. Sometimes the Red
Cross or similar groups take
over if they can;
Can your husband arrange
• to take that week as part of
* his summer vacation so he will
not lose by it?
* Isn't there a couple with
* children among your friends
' who would take your little
'' girl for the week? They would
* not charge you, I'm sure, and
* a small household gift is al-
* way a proper expression of
• your gratitude.

Happy Forecast
For Colicky Babies
Colic today, colossus tcmorrow.
This happy forecast for the
average colicky baby was made
last month by Dr. Herman F.
Meyer, Northwestern University
Medical School pediatrician.
When red - faced Junior
screams, draws up his legs, and
waves his hands in a noisy spell
of colic, Dr. Meyer noted in the
journal Postgraduate Medicine,
he is probably just a normal
youngster who is using this
method to register highly vocal
"resentment against the restric-
tions imposed on his imma-
turity." Moreover, he added, "the
very symptoms which disturb
him In babyhood will be virtues
in adult life."
While some baby specialists
contend that colic may be caused
by allergy to cow's milk, Dr.
Meyer joins the pediatricians
who believe that family insta-
bility accounts for most of these
symptoms. In an effort to escape
the frustrations of his home life,
the youngster lifts his head, sits
up, and walks earlir than the
more phlegmatic infant.
In elementary school, the once
colicky baby is "aggressive, a
leader, non -sensitive' to the re -
butts of others" In high school,
he "runs everything," from the
class paper to school plays. As
an adult, this type "rushes
through life from one success
to another." He has "a multitude
of hobbies ... excels in sports."
A driver at work, he needs little
sleep to recoup energies. With
these mature "outlets to the
many frustrations which were
the despair of his baby days,"
Dr. Meyer concluded the once
colicky infant is "hanpy and
well adjusted, enjoys life to the
hill, is usually highly successful
socially and financially, and
rarely Is found on the psychi-
etrist's couch."

BUBBLE TROUBLE — Mrs. Jean Childs of London, England, is up
to her axles In floodwater, The Thames burst its banks near
Maidenhead, flooding the area and her carburetor.
We had a lovely present last
week. Nothing more or less than
two huge grapefruit, Nothing
wonderful about that you may
say. But there was — these were
very special grapefruit — they
came straight from Florida. And
were they ever nice - sweet
and juicy and so big one grape-
fruit did us for two meals. A
neighbor family had been to St,
Petersburg for a short vacation
and brought them home for us—
which we much appreciated.
Sun -ripened fruit has a lot more
flavor than the green -picked
variety one gets from the stores,
And' of course they are .,a lot
cheaper in the locality in which
they are grown, But it's a long
way from here to go shopping!
I wonder what it feels like to
leave the sun and warmth of the
beaches and come back to ice and
snow. I don't think I would like
the sudden change. Our neigh-
bors left here the day after
Christmas, the ' children all
bundled up in snow -suits and
overshoes and remained that
way until they reached Virginia.
Then the whole family started
to peel off clothes and by the
time they reached their destina-
tion they were dressed, or
more or less undressed, as it
were, ready for the beach, Com-
ing back, of course, everything
was in reverse — they were
adding garments as they got
nearer home.
As for our weather we have
had a little bit of everything
;ust lately — rain and ice and
snow. So what happens? Tues-
day I wanted to wash but the
weatherman predicted rain so 1
left it. And then it didn't rain
at all. Wednesday dawned
bright and clear. So we washed.
At least I washed and Partner
hung out the clothes. After
dinner it still being nice and
rain not predicted until rnid-
night, we left the clothes on the
line and took to the road, en
route to Milton. You can guest
what happened. By four o'clock
it was raining and we headed
for home in a hurry. I didn't
want to he driving in a freezing
drizzle. Fortunately we got home
in time. So how can you win—
by paying heed to weather re-
ports 'or ignoring them?
Sometimes we hear it said the
• seasons arc changing — that the
-winters are not as extreme as
they used to be. 1 wonder —
don't you think it is we who
have changed more than the
weather? It has to be a really
bad storm now before we really
notice it. People demand that
the roads be kept clear in winter
end naturally the Department of
Highways caters to the tax-
nayers, And what a hue and cry
if they don't do it fast enough.
But remember what happened
boring winter 30 years ago --
r: p_'cially on the farms. No
!armcr ever expected to go very
ftp with his car in cold weather.
Why, I can remember when most
farmers used to jack up their
car, an to blocks from November
to April — sometimes later he -
cause after the snow went there
was the mud to contend with.
With the first snow out came the
cutters and sleighs. And what a
thrill it was to go .dashing along
the snow -filled roads behind a
s 1 e e k, spirited team, high-
stepping hooves sending a spray
of swirling snow back in our
faces. Now we have the con-
venience of cleared roads and
heated automobiles, but for
sheer enjoyment there was noth-
ing like a good sleigh ride in the
brisk, clear air.For long rides
there were heated bricks placed
on the straw -strewn floor al the
sleigh to keep our feet snug and
warm. ' But for short rides a
good buffalo robe was generally
enough. Children sat on the
floor of the sleigh with their
backs to the wind, well pro-
tected by warm clothing and
heavy toques. Of course, 1'1 in
passing another sleigh you got
too close to the ditch and upset
that all addedto the fun. Our

children can remember those
times' but it is hardly likely out
grandchildren will 'ever know
the joy of a sleigh -ride — more's
the pity, To them "tingle bells"
w just the words of a Christmas
bong.
And 'that is progress.
Progress of another kind is
well described in an article in
last Saturday's Globe and Mail—
"They're Trying to Save the
Aces". "They r.,eatung conser-
vationists, farmers, soil experts
and a few far-sighted township
planners. It claims that during
the last five years, 30,0000
people, other than farmers, have
moved fa rural areas Although
not farming it is farm land that
has been taken to•pruvide hones
for the newcomers — and good
productive soil at that. It is a
serious stivation, which, if allow-
ed to continue can be a definite
threat to Ontario's agricultural
economy. 'Remember I 'said last
week elderly farmers might just
as well add to their dwindling
income by selling a few acres
instead of waiting until all their
land is confiscated. Looks as it

Bank Robber
In Old Lace
The way NeW Yorkers saw
her, she was a dear little old
lady, very much like the dear
little old ladies fn "Arsenic and
Old Lace." The only difference
was she didn't have any bodies
hidden in her cellar; her pecca-
dillo was robbing banks, instead.
On Dec. 3, she had robbed a
branch of the First National
City Bank of $3,420 by threaten-
ing to throw acid in a teller's
face. and she had instantly be-
come 'a legend. New York, a
town overflowing with misplaced
sentimentality, had taken her to
its heart.
Thre weeks later it turned out
that she wasn't so little, nor so
old -- she was 5 feet 8, and a
chic 57, These facts were ascer-
tained by police after she tried
to pull another caper, at the.In-
dustrial Bank of Commerce, Clad
in the same black beret, black
coat, and •modishly framed dark
glasses that she wore in the first
heist, she handed the teller a
neatly printed note, which said:
"Put $5,000 in $5, $10, and $20'
bills in bag. There is acid In the
glass. You wouldn't want it in
your face. Don't try to warn any-
body until I am out of here. Oh
yes, I am being guraded by two
guns, Let's not let your custom-
ers or co-workers get hurt."
The teller didn't argue, For the
bank had issued standing orders
to its employees not to resist a
holdup — not even a holdup
staged by a dear little old lady.
So, the teller crammed $1,190 into
the brown paper bag she handed
him. But he took his own sweet
time and made a real production
of the chore. Two bank officials
spotted the little drama and tip-
ped the bank guard, who seized
her as she tried to leave. The
colorless liquid in the glass she
was carrying turned out to be
water.
At police headquarters, the
frail woman told a pathetic — if
somewhat incredible — story,
Her name was Vera Wilson, she
said in cultured tones, and she
was a widow, alone and penni-
less in the big city. She had been
living for 'the past year by beg-
ging, and she had been sleep-
ing in subways and railroad sta-
tions, "Now, maybe I'll get three
meals a day," she said.
What happened to the $3,420
she heisted from the First Na-
tional? "A few seconds after
leaving the bank," she said, "the
paper bag with the money was
jostled from my hands and fell
into the street. A man picked it
Up and tried to hand it to me,
but I was so nervous I said, 'It
doesn't belong to me' and walked
on,"
Tears rolled down her thin,
lined cheeks, as she spoke, and
she dabbed her eyes with tissue.
"A fantastic story," said Detec-
tive Lt, Arthur Schulthelss,
Magstrate Milton Solomon
didn't believe a word of her
story, either, and set bail at $30,-

The Napkin Ring
Napkin rings were often more
elegant than the linen they held,
They were silver, generally, and
maybe engraved with initials, A
polishing or two a year would
keep them presentable. The nap-
kin, meanwhile, was likely to
become smeared with the stains
and colors of many greases and
sauces between one Sunday and
the next.
Ire ships' wardrooms and
saloons, napkin rings remain a
i'ixture. Some are scrimshaw—
intricate carvings from bone or
ivory or shell. Others are Lurks -
heads tied from flax cord, And
there are steel and brass ones
turned out on the blackgang's
lathe.

ring, like the moustache eup, the

Aging Sir Thomas
Sounds Off
Sir Thomas Beecham rolled
majestically into New York last
month, midway through his latest
g�ut1est-condtfcting trek around the
U.S. Wtih successive triumphs
in Philadelphia, Baltimore, ,and
Washington already behind ,and
the portly English/maestro was
in high good humor despite a
sold which had put him in his
hotel bed for a day. "The holt 1
will," he had roared at his doc-
tor, but to bed he went,
Settled now in an easy chair
for an interview in his hotel
suite, he bit off the end of his
ever-present sigar when he was
asked what kind of celebrations
he planned for April 29, his 60th
birthday. "I refuse to have any,"
he said, "Do you think I want to
be reminded of it? I am as acute-
ly conscious of it as any woman."
Would he be in England for the
occasion? Britisher Beecham
hardly thought so, "The climate
of England doesn't suit me," the
well -traveled conductor said,
with a snort; "It doesn't suit even
the English, I must pay the Eng-
lish the compliment of saying
that they have more of a sense
of humor anal fun than anyone
else. Who else could support life
as it is?"
Since April also marks the,
200th anniversary of thefdeath of
George Frederick Handel, a com-
poser whom Sir Thomas has done
so much to popularize during
his career, would he participate
in the worldwide observance of
this event? "Not conspicuously,"
he replied, "I've been pushing
Handel all my life, Why should
I single out any particular year?
Let other peole cash in on Han-
del, even though they know noth-
ing about him. But I will record
the 'Messiah' in England this
summer."
In Beecham's hands, the "Mes-
siah" can, be transformed into an
emotionally overwhelming testa-
ment of faith. This genius for re-
invigoratingthe- familiar was
never more apparent than at a
Beecham concert in New York's
Carnegie Hall one evening last
week Beecham, a long-time suf-
ferer from gout, elected to sit
down in a straight chair on the
podium between numbers instead
of making his way back and
forth from the wings. But when
he rose to 'direct the Philadelphia
Orchestra in the frequently play-
ed "Linz" symphony of Mozart
rind the D minor symphony of
P`l'anck, Beecham was like a man
reborn, his goateed face a mirror
of delight for -the music he was
making. -
Mots vs. Music: This was a
different Beecham from the belli-
gerent baronet of public legend,
the master of the withering wit
and the lord of the ironic retort,
This man on the podium had
spent a fortune underwriting
symphonies and• operas to bring
music to the people, had fought
to bring now -popular composers
like Handel, Mozart, Delius, and
Berlioz out of obscurity, and had
developed from a gifted musical
amateur to a professional conduc-
tor of highest rank.
Here in the living room of his
hotel, however, Sir Thomas was
more interested in mots than in
music. Flitting from subject to
subject, he recalled a brilliant
concertmaster he once had who
"detested all music." "An amiable
attitude," was the Beecham com-
ment, When reminded of the days
when the source of his fortune -
Beecham's liver pills - used to
occasion great merriment, he re-
membered when he had offered
the firm a new advertising jingle
to substitute for the old familiar:
Hark the herald angels sing,
Beecham's pills are just the thing.
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
Two for man and one for child.
His contribution went like this:
Mary had a little watch,
She swallowed it one day,
And took a box of Beecham's
pills,
To pass the time away.
It was politely, but firmly turn-
ed down. Since contemporary
music is an ever -reliable bait

with Sir Thomas, he was asked
about current trends, "1 listen
with great attention and interest,"
he said. ,"I once told a journalist
that modern British music is one
vast promissory note. One must
always look forward to the fu-
ture. Composers at the age of
00," Beecham observed slyly, "are
still promising young men."
Then when did the good music
stop? "It stopped in 1925," he
said flatly, if not altogether ac-
curately. "Since then nothing has
been produced in Europe worth
listening to , , . I'll leave it to
other people to explain why."

Britain Plugs
Royal Keyholes
"I stood by the side of the
Queen as she slowly flicked
through a bundle of low-priced
gay chintz curtain patterns,"
said the breezy (tabloid) Sun-
day Pictorial's bylined story. "I
had chosen these cotton designs
for her myself, and I knew they
were just what she wanted . , ."
Such backstairs glimpses of.
palace life are just what readers
of 'Fleet Street's mass -circula-
tion magazines and newspapers
Want. English readers have ap-
parently insatiable appetites for
crumbs of gossip from the royal
table.
Traditionally, such stories have
been gleaned from palace em-
ployes or ex -employes. The Sun-
day Pictorial's article - written
by 42 -year-old William Charles
EllIs, the former superintendent
of Windsor Castle, Queen Eliza-
beth's weekend home - was
typical in its concern with such
minutiae as the chintz curtains,
bathrooms, and sheets,
Ellis's story was not typical,
however, in its leering look at
wedded life in Windsor Castle.
After he had asked Prince Philip
where he wanted his be,d, Ellis
wrote: ("He) chuckled (and. he
said): 'You don't think I'm sleep-
ing in this do you?' He pointed
to the Queen's room and said:
'That's where I sleep.' " ,
That was enough for the shock-
ed royal family. Last month, the
Queen's solicitors got •a tempor-
ary. High Court order forbidding
publication of a second article,
The Crown said Ellis had signed
an agreement not to print infor-
mation about the royal family.
Later, Britain's Attorney Gen-
eral prepared to seek a perma-
nent injunction against the Ellis
relies which could enfl all future
keyhole peeks at the royal

A Tough Racket
Whenever the pro footballers
gather socially, the stories' flow
thick and fast and wonderful,
Like the one huge Bob St, Clair
of the 49'ers was telling on team-
mate Joe Perry, It seems the
Bears and the 49'ers were hav-
ing one of their typical games
at Wrigley Feld, which meant
that people were getting knock-
ed around more than a little.
At one stage, late in the game,
San Fransisco had moved lo the
Chicago two -yard line. At that
juncture, quarterback Y. A.
Tittle called Perry's number on
a fullback drive straight ahead.
"The right gurad and I were
supposed to cross -block to open
a hole," grinned , St. Clair, now
that the season is over some 6 ft.
8 in, of playful good humor.
"Well for once we executed the
play correctly.- The guard and
I got our men, Perry' tore
through the hole, head down,
and crashed head -first into the
goal post.
"Joe bounced off, wobbled a
bit, and flopped over the goal
line. An official signaled a touch-
down, and we went into a hud-
dle for the conversion attempt,"
St. Clair went on. "But there was
no Perry, Then along came Joe,
still staggering, He 'got into the
huddle, blinked- a couple of
times, and looked 'at the rest of
us accusingly,
"'Nice block, Bob,' he said,
'But which one of you guys miss-
ed the block on that line-
backer? '"
The story got a laugh from
Weeb Ewbank, Baltimore's cham-
pionship coach, Now that he was
properly warmed up, Weeb told
a few on his own players. One
of Weeb's favorites Is "Big
Daddy" Lipscomb, the masta-
donic defensive tackle:
"I think he's the greatest tack-
ler in the league," said Weeb in
awe, "I meals when he hits 'em
they go the way he wants. Would
you believe lt, according to our•
statistics last season, Lipscomb
was credited with 135 tackles?
The next man, Gino Marchetti,
had 90. •
"On day I asked Lipscomb
how come he was such a marvel-
ous tackler, What was his sec-
ret," Weeb continued,
"Big Daddy told me, 'I just
wrap my arms around the whole
backfield and peel 'em off one
by .one till I get to the ball car-
rier. Him I keep,' "

Growing Pearls
Is Big Business
Right now millions of Jap-
anese oysters are agitating them-
selves into the production of as
many cultured pearls. By the
end of this year Japan expects
well over 81,000 pounds of the
spherical beauties will have
reached foreign markets.
American women are finding
the pearls to their liking. Hide-
taka Kato, New York represen-
tative of the Japan Pearl Ex-
porters
x-
porters Association, believes
that by the end of 1959 the
United States will have bought
$11,000,000 worth,
This not only puts this coun-
try well in the lead of pearl pur-
chases, but the amount will be
about 15 per cent more than last
year.
And the beginning of the
Japanese cultured pearl starts
in America, for it is the irritat-
ing corners of tiny bits of Mis-
sissippi oyster shell that do the
trick. The bits are inserted into
oysters by the Japanese. The
oysters don't like the irritation
and build up their very attrac-
tive resistance in the form of
attractive pearls. It seems the
Mississippi bits are the most
wonderfully irritating in the
world.
Of course, oysters have been
getting irritated since the begin-
ning of oceans over bits of sand
or shell or something, and their
pearls have been cherished as
jewels since prehistoric times.
But the oyster hasn't always
been cooperative about produc-
ing the "perfect" or round
pearl. Also the oyster, on its
own, has not been consistent
about the color of its jewel.
The new epoch of pearl cul-
ture and finding the ways and
habits of the oyster got under
way about a half century ago
through the experiments of pearl
king Kokichi Mikimoto and his
son in -]r w, Dr, Tokichi Nishi-
kawa.
They not only found the way
to coax the oyster into produc-
ing round pearls, but they in-
vestigated the effects of the
ocean and changing tides upon
the color of the pearl.
Their "inventions" and/or dis-
coveries have been patented in
many countries around the
world. Among other things they
found out is that, regardless of
how far science may advance,
man probably can never create
pearls equal to the quality of
mother nature. But with ingen-
uity and care beautiful jewels
can be produced, controlled, and
marketed for the pleasure of the
world.
Today the cultured pearl is as
Japanese as the cherry blossom
or Fujiyama. Japan produces
over 90 per cent of the world's
Natural and cultured pearls.
Others have tried the Japanese
techniques in Burma, Australia,
Hong Kong. and Okinawa, but
so far the hest results have been
some only semiround shells.
The Japanese cultured pearls
are produced mostly in the
southern area of the Shima
peninsula on the main island of
Honshu. The very active produc-
ing areas are near Toba, al-
though considerable production
is going on in southern Shikoku.
Japanese girls do much of the
pearl -producing work. They
dive for the oysters, which are
then taken to the laboratories
for treatment, They handle the
delicate operation of inserting
the pearl nucleus, and they pre-
pare them for the return to the
"beds."
The more exciting time comes
after the period of cultivation
when the oysters •are taken out
for extracting the pearl. There
are always the questions: How
beautiful is the jewel? Is it per-
fectly round? Does it have the
luster? Is its color attractive?
Is it the right size?
The Japanese are particular
abort this, for they are trying
to make sure that the pearl in-
dustry is properly controlled
and that only high-quality jew-
ISSUE 7 -- 1959
n
els reach the public. They are
so intense about this that re-
cently the white motorship Ta.
chibana Maru sailed out of
Tokyo Bay 40 miles .into the
Pacific with 2,500 pounds of
pearls ceremoniously packed In
white boxes. These were dump-
ed into the blue waters,
This dumping operation is not
an easy emotional task, for many
a sigh goes up from the men and
women aboard the ship as the
glistening beauties disappear.
For it requires three to five
years of patient, careful cultiva-
tion to produce a cultured jewel,
And there are dangers, too,
The "red tide" is constantly a
threat to the oysters. This is a
violent attack by minute marine
creatures which destroy shell-
fish.
Then often a . tide will bring
in waters too cold or with too
much salt content, and a whole
"oyster plantation" has to be
moved out of the area.
But Japan is fortunate, too,
for scientists have not yet found
out why pearl oysters prefer Jap-
anese waters to all the others, It
just seems that the oysters are
perfectly content to live off the
-isles of Japan. They become
disturbed only when man irri-
tates them with a goad, and they
just surround that with a jewel.
Gave The King
A Dog's Eyebrows
Layers of dirt nearly an inch
thick are being removed from
some parts of Westminster Ab-
bey, London, in a great cleaning
operation which will not end
until early in 1965, when the
Abbey's 900th anniversary cele-
brations are due to take place,
As a result of the "spring
clean" — the biggest ever known
at Westminster — this will be
the first time for 600 years that
the magnificent Abbey will be
seen as its builders intended,
In some places the cleaners
Lave laid bare hitherto unknown
repairs carried out by Sir Chris-
topher Wren 300 years ago. All
England has been combed for
oak trees big enough to supply
the 37 foot beams needed to
supportthe roof following the
destruction of much of the
original timber by death-watch
beetles.
For more than three centuries
kings, queens, poets, priests and
statesmen have been buried at
the Abbey. Displayed there to-
day are a number of life - size
wax effigies of three queens, two
kings, three duchesses, a mar-
quess, an earl and the great Lord
Nelson, Britain's sea hero.
Nelson's was the last effigy
to be made for the Abbey. The
story goes that when Lady Ham-
ilton went to inspect it she re•
marked: "The likeness would be
perfect if this lock of hair were
disposed in the way his lordship
always wore it," And reaching
out her fingers, she put it prop-
erly into place.
How did these effigies ever
come into being? It used to be
the custom to show •the embalm-
ed bodies of kings and queens
at their funerals. Later wax
effigies were shown instead,
dressed in the dead monarch's
clothes. The custom spread to
the funerals of other great per-
sons.
It was decided a few years ago
to restore the effigies which had
became battered and darkened
by the dirt of centuries. The ex-
perts doing the work discovered
that the heads of the effigies of
Edward III and Henry VII are
genuine death -masks,
That of Edward is consequent-
ly the oldest European death -
mask in existence.
The cleaning revealed the
original facial color of the ef-
figies, sometimes fairly brightly.
It was also found that all the
remnants of hair on them were
human, except the eyebrows of
Edward III, which were from a
dog.
Dr. H. S. Holden who, at the
time of this restoration was di-
rector of Scotland Yard's for-
ensic laboratory, was called in
to help in analysing the effigies'
hair.

Woman's Yawn
Causes Crisis
The woman hospital patient
stood at the open window and
yawned. '
And when she did so the pa-
tient dropped both sets of her
false teeth into a wilderness of
weeds' in the no-man's-land,
which was guarded by Israeli
and Arab sentries.
The woman needed solid food
to help recover from a stomach
operation, so the , ward sister
reported the matter to the hos-
pital governor, he to the border
police, they to the U.N. Truce
Supervision Organization, which
then sent its representative to
inform the heads of the Israeli
and Jordan Mixed Armistice
Commission of the happening.
An international crisis had de-
veloped.
The two officers then arrang-
ed a joint meeting, together with
shorthand writers, and the form-
alities went on for days.
A hospital maid could have
sneaked out in the dark and
searched the undergrowth for
the dentures; but she might have
been shot as a suspected infil-
trator. So the patient was put
back to bed on milk while the
mighty U.N. machine started to
go laboriously into action.
Finally, several officers from
each side, dressed for an official
occasion, proceeded to the spot
▪ beneath the window, a nurse
above relayed directions to the
party from the patient, and soon
the dentures were found.
, But they had to be the sub-
ject of more minutes and resolu-
tions before they could be offi-
cially handed over and signed
for, so it was still some time
before the patient could resume
normal eating! This farcical sit-
uation is one of many that Col.
W. Byford -Jones records in
"Forbidden Frontiers", a graphic
account of his travels on both
sides of the Jew -Arab borders.
Mount Scopus, north of the
Mount of Olives, was a United
Nations "island" within Jordan
containing both.Arab village and
Jewish institutions,
Cream shortening and• sugar;
add beaten eggs and chopped
apples and mix well. Sift dry
ingredients together and add to
apple mixture; add nut meats
and lemon extract, Pour into
greased loaf pan and bake at
?50 degrees F, for 35-40 minutes
or until done.
Engineer of the animal world,
the beaver was doing a good job
of water control long before the
first bureau was set up for that
purpose in Ottawa or Washing-
ton. The beaver is the largest of
all American rodents, Its fur was
one of the incentives for pioneer-
ing the West. At one time its
hide was standard currency;
later, rough coins stamped with
the beaver's likeness were in
common use. This large, aqua-
tic rodent is softly furred with
e rich, brown coat.
One road only linked it with
Israel, and over this—periodi-
cally and under strict supervi-
sion — went an Israeli convoy
carrying supplies and change of
personnel.
One day, at a U.N. frontier
post, a sharp-eyed guard drop-
ped a test rod into a barrel of
oil bound for the •Mt. Scopus
Israelis and struck an obstacle
about halfway down,
At once the Arabs suspected
something sinister.
The U.N. guard's officer order-
ed the barrel' to be taken from
the truck, and within a few
hours serious tension had mount-
ed between Arabs and Jews.
War loomed; scores of cables
went to London and Washing-
ton.
It later transpired, however,
that the obstruction was oonly a
large floating metal cap!
Smuggling, Col. Byford -Jones
says, still continues over this
frontier; the tension and danger
only serve to intensify the
smugglers' cunning, • One night a
convoy was caught with a carav-
an of twelve donkeys carrying
six, sacks of drugs, six huge
bales of costly cigarette lighters,
and thousands of silk stockings,
•among other things.
An old smuggling family
boasted that it smuggled every-
thing for which there was a
market, and once had smuggled
two cows which had been sold
by one small -holder to another,'
Those cows led to the smuggl-
ers' undoing. Preferring the
green pastures of their original
master, a Jew, they strayed too
the frontier in search of him and
the whole affair was revealed.
This was the first time Israel
and Jordan co-operated to try
an infiltrator in a joint court set
tap in the ruins of no-man's-land,
The Arab mayor of Barta'a
had a wife each side of the
frontier line running through his
village: Fatima, an Israeli Arab,
who lived with him, and Farida,
a Jordanian Arab, living on 'the
other side,
Some nights each week he
sneaked across the border into
Jordan to fulfil his connubial
duties to the latter, and return-
ing one morning in the early
hours, fell in with a real infil-
trator.
An argument started which
developed into a fight. Jordan
• guards, hearing the noise, sailed
in, arrested both, and flung them
into the local lock-up. Only
combined operations Initialed by
the mayor's two wives eventual-
ly freed him.
He was very peeved at being
treated like that just for doing
his duty as a loving hllsbend.
Nowadays, he still goes to see
Farida but takes care to steer
clear of stray infiltrators!

trousers in his house."
"Perhaps so, but every night
after supper he wears an apron
over them."

• This Cadillac of the bedroom

comfortable and relaxed?"
Seccombe objects strenuously
to the word "bedroom." "Why
not call it the sanctuary room?"
he. asks.
As its contribution to finer liv-

Twin three - foot mattresses

Taffy Pulling
Is Still Fun
01' Ed Gilligan had himself
another Gloucester fishing yarn
in the magazine the other week,
and I was in a dory on the win-
try banks hauling in halibut by
the gross ton when a large and
conspicuous aroma of clear,
knifelike vinegar, pushed me off
the thwart and overside. It's
pretty hard to settle Into ail
armchair in this particular alrena
of unbridled activity and get
through a bit of reading without
some penetration of the irrelev-
ant, but vinegar on the Grand
Banks is new. I climbed back,
stu;k my hook In the gun'1, and
went out in the kitchen.
It was some taffy. It being
holiday time, and an accumula-
tion of wooers and wooed about,
pulling some taffy was suggest-
ed by my woods -queer spouse
as a wonderful way to pass a
cold and stormy evening which
had unkindly set in. "What can
we do?" had been the wail, and
she met this doldrum head on
with the suggestion, dredged up
from forgotten times, that they
pull some taffy.
I, myself, was always a molas-
ses taffy man, and never could go
this vinegar taffy. It sets up such
a lound shout; to begin with, and
then the finished product is du-
bious. Vinegar has its place in
the world, but I think it is not
in candy. •
On the other hand, the vine-
gar coming to' a stanch boil in
the pot makes conversation ease
ler, because it is very, easy to
make remarks about it and to
compare watering eyes. Of
course, there was a time chil-
dren were knowledgeable, and
knew what was coming when the
taffy was put to cook. But these
newer children, wise in all the
teen-age categories, didn't know
and were alarmed. When they
Laid "What can 'you do on a
cold night when there's nothing
to do?" they were not expecting
any such fumigation as this.
There is a blg difference be-
tween taffy then and taffy now.
We used to cook It on a wood
EVER SEE ONE?—Many of to-
day's youngsters have never
seen one of the devices pictur-
ed, above. It's a mailbag
standard, from which a speed-
ing train snatches the mailbag
as it goes by.. Mrs. Edna Dun -
fee, 81, adjusts the sack for
the ons train a day that picks
up mail in this manner. A few
years ago, at least six mail
trains each day made such
pickups at Little Hocking.

stove by the ball method, You
held a glass of cold water in one
hand, and dripped some of the
syrup in it, You could tell. by
the kind of reaction you got, It
called for judgment and know-
how, and there was room for
community =lecture. "I don't
think it's ready" was answered
by "Sure, it's gone just a dolt
too far," We all stood around
the stove, 'creating a coziness,
and naturally enjoying close -
hand the soporific combination
of heat and flavor.
Now the gas flame speeds the
boiling, and - the candy thermo-
meter allows no compromise.
When it gets to the mark, it's
done, Nobody needs to super-
vise or corroborate; they can sit
around and wait, The pot needs
just one watcher. This lets the
boys and girlstalk about other
things while they're waiting—a
bad thing. Attention should be
focused.
Poured on the marble slab to
cool, the mixture was soon
ready, and word to butter the
hands was variously received,
Hands that had reached eigh-
teen and nineteen and had never
been buttered approached this
requirement gingerly, Who ever
heard of such a thing? One or
two recoiled visibly from this
unkempt idea, thinking it might
be better to refrain altogether.
But horray! The kitchen was
shortly ajingle with happy laugh-
ter, and the long strands of taffy
were beginning to look White
and crisp. Somebody said, "Gol-
lies, this really is fun!"
' Of course, it's fun. It was fun,
long ago, too, and need not have
perished as a youthful pursuit.
It's an old-fashioned, out-of-date,
time -lost amusement, smacking
of the defunct and long -gone
past, It came before cellophane
and,plastic, and the age of indI-
vidual wraps, It has no relation-
ship to progress and culture. Yet,
lacking all recommendations, it
turned out to be fun!
They pulled and pulled, and
there was the boy who found out
he couldn't do it, Something
about body heat, or his palms,
or something—there is and was
always one such in every taffy
crowd. The stuff, in spite of but-
ter, stuck to 'his hands. They
yanked and yanked, and some
of the taffy fell on the floor, and
some didn't seem to want to pull
right—with all the side issues
and tangents and funny remarks
and expressions.
Then there was another boy
who found he couldn't eat any,
Stuck to his tetth. Some people
like that, They found hint in
t , corner going "Mmm-mmm-
minm" and he had to wait it out,
He was out of the conversations
for about a half hour. He found
out it doesn't do any good to
pull it away, it just sticks some-
where else, Everybody came to
him with suggestions, and solici-
tous inquiries about his condi-
tion, and immediate questions he
couldn't delay answering.
"What can we do?" Is this such
a problem? I don't remember we
ever had it, and we didn't have
"advantages" back then. We
couldn't jump in an automobile
and go ten towns over for a
pizza. We didn't have hi-fi and
tee -vee. ("Aw, there's nothing
on it—just banging and hang-
ing!" said the black-eyed girl,)
We had a sociable occasionally,
always getting home by nine -
thirty, and sometimes we pulled
taffy at them. Organized play
was unknown; we had 'no youth
centers, We walked and walked
home. It's a little hard for me to
take a modern youngster seri-
ously when he says, "What can
we do?"
At least one small scgment
of today's teen-age crowd now
knows how to pass a pleasant
evening pulling taffy. They said
they'd like to come another time
and try some molasses kind, Do
.you suppose we've started some-
thing, and buttered hands will
bloom all across the land?—By

ALL DUNN IN — With a slight hangover apparent, four-year-old
Sylvan Sundby has had a' bellyful! of a farm convention. He's
snoozed off under a sign marking the area of Dunn County
Farm Bureau, headed by his father.
TllHAN FRONT
J
A wintertime swing through
snow-covered hills to visit New
England dairy and poultry farms
has shown specifically the tre-
mendous investment in time,
work, and money 'which farmers
.must make to produce the kind
of commodity demanded by to-
day's consumers
Like their counterparts in
other areas, these dairy and poul-
try farmers are having to find
new ways to increase their effi-
ciency and to beat the cost -price
squeeze,
Take, for instance, Jean and
Byron Hathorn's diary farm, a
tidy river -bottom farmstead in a
narrow valley. • Only about 125
acres out of their total 370 are
usable as pasture and for grow-
ing hay and corn.
In the seven years since Byron
began taking over management
of the family farm from his
father, he not ' only has doubled
the size of leis Holstein herd, but
has practically doubled the but-
terfat content of the milk. His
over-all accomplishment, says
William Stone, county agent, has
put him in the top 10 per cent
among the dairy farmers —
"maybe the top 5 per cent."
• • *
Like many other modern
young farmers who are making
their farms pay, Mr. Hathorn
had a family farm to start with
— but prospects didn't look very
encouraging at the time, 1
Byron and Jean came back
to a farm that he and his five
brothers and one sister had all
been glad to leave as soon as
they could get out on ttheir own.
They'd all had enough of . the
drudgery of pertpetual before-
-and -after school farm chores in
the days when manpower and
horsepower did all the work, _
But after trying other things,
Byron decided that "there are
worse things than farming," His
father was "getting along" and
needed help, so Byron and Jean
moved to the farm seven years
ago to share 50-50 with his
mother and father.
* • *
But 50 per cent of the pro-
ceeds from the 17 milk cows then
on the farm was pretty slim,
even when supplemented with a
little grain business and a few
chickens; Gradually, with some
help from Bill Stone, the Ha -
thorns not only made necessary
improvements to the farm, but
worked out, an agreement with
the elder Hathorn which contin-
ued the '50 per cent arrangement
and also assured Byron's future
as the ultimate sole owner. IIis
father has since passed on,' but
his mother still occupies her own
house on the farm.
• * *
Now the I-fathorns have a new
modern barn which Byron built
himself three years ago at a cost
of $6,000 for materials ' alone.
This snug, picturesque red barn
now houses about 70 purebred
Holsteins, living a lfe of bovine
luxury; a $4,500 milking parlor
from which milk is piped di-
rectly from the cow into a 300 -
gallon, $2,500 bulk milk tank; an
automatic gutter - cleaning sys-
tem, which conveys manure out-
side and loads it into n manure
spreader; and a radio, dispensing
soft music to keep the cows con-
tented.
• • •
Byron breeds replacements for
his herd, using mostly his own
bull but also, at times, artificial
insemination, He figures the
average number of milking cows
at about 31, writes Helen Hen-
ley in the Chrstian Science Moni-
tor,
Mr, Hathorn credits a practical
system of Dairy Herd Improve-
ment records with some of his
success in keeping his cows in
top producing condition.
His own careful records on
each cow are sent to Cornell Uni-
versity, where IBM machines
evaluate and interpret the statis-
tics to the point of even pre-
scribing the exact feed best for
each cow, determining when she
needs a complete rest, etc.
The service.costs about 9 cents
per cow per month, and Mr.
Hathorn feels this has paid off
well, as have all his investments
in mechanical equipment which
have enabled him to handle all
the work himself — well, not
quite by himself. When Mr.
Stone commented that he had
good equipment, Byron smiled at
Jean and said, "Yes — and a
good wife."
King George Wore
Lead -Lined Bowler
Dorothy Wilding, who photo-
graphed King George VI and
Queen Elizabeth (the Queen
Mother) immediately after the
Coronation ceremony, was told
that a fortnight before it the
King had accustomed himself to
:he weight of the Crown by
wearing a bowler lined with lead
to make it the same weight!
He arrived at Buckingham
Palace looking remarkably fresh;
the Queen was so pale that Miss
Wilding feared she was going to
faint, but she walked resolutely
to the dais in the Throne Room
As the King moved forward
to take his place on the dais for
the photographing he handed to
Lord Cromer the Sceptre which
he had held in his right hand,
according to ancient tradition,
after receiving it at his corona-
tion. Lord Cromer in turn, hand-
ed it to another dignitary, who
looked around for someone else
to take charge of it while ie
carried out other duties — and
finally handed it to Miss Wild-
ing's husband, Rufus Leighton -
Pearce,
"I shall never forget the awe-
stricken look on my husband's
face when he found the fabulous
relic placed in his hand," she
recalls,
"There he was, standing alone,
holding the sceptre, with no one
daring to relieve him of such a
precious burden Finally, when
it became too much for him,.he,
wishing to be helpful, laid the

sceptre on a near - by couch
and carefully covered it with
cushions so that it and its jewels
were definitely protected and
he would be able to keep his
eye on that couch,"
Unaware at this, Miss Wild:
ing's assistant, Marion Parham,
feverishly removed ex posed
films in their carriers from the
camera and placed them under
those same cushions, also for
protection.
At the end of the sitting Rufus
removed the cushions and nearly
passed out when he saw the
sceptre completely smothered by
the photographic equipment!
Is Your Memory
A One -Way Street?
An attractive young American
bride-to-be failed to keep an 11
e.m, appointment with her dress-
maker to try on her wedding
dress on the day before her wed-
ding. She only remembered it
at 9 p.m. when it was too late.
An incredible incident? Not at
all, comments a psychiatrist, who
says that after studying the
tricks that memory sometimes
plays he is convinced that such
memory lapses usually occur be-
cause forget':ulness is an attempt
at escaping from one's problems,
It was later revealed that the
young bride was not really in
love with the much older man
Ole was pledged to marry. Their
marriage was dissolved a few
months after the wedding.
Meclical authorities in this
country have pointed out that
forgetting is often intentional
and deliberate, Barristers and
doctors, for instance, can train
themselves to forget the details
of a case once it is over and
done with. They clear their
minds of it when fresh cases de-
mand their attention,
Some famous men in the past
had very bad memories. Novel-
ist -poet Sir Walter Scott heard a
song sung at a Christmas party
where he was a guest of honor
and observed, "What remarkably
good words! I wonder who wrote
them?"
He was amazed when a friend
pointed out that Scott himself
had written them and that the
song had been sung in his honor,
Lots of people have poor mem-
ories for names and faces. The
Queen and Prince Philip have
so trained their memories that
they nearly always remember
faces. The Queen's grandfather,
King George V, also had a mar-
vellous memory for faces.

Responsibility to God and Man
Mark 12: 28-34
Memory Selection: To love
him with all the heart, and with
all the understanding, and with
all the soul, and with all the
strength, and to love his neigh-
bor as himself, is more than all
whole burnt offerings and sacri-
fices. Mark 12; 33,
Of all the commands given in
the Scriptures, there is none so
extensively and at the same
time, so intensive, as the Great
Commandment composed of two
parts selected from the law of
Moses. Their substance is given
in the memory selection. The
young lawyer recognized that
the answer which Jesus gave to
his query as to which was the
greatest commandment, was a
masterpiece.
Love for God and man is the
solution for man's ills in every
age. Without it, everything else
is vain, as expressed so clearly
in Paul's first letter to the Cor-
inthians, chapter 13. But before
we can so love God, we must
surrender our wills to Heaven's
greatest expression of love, the
Lord Jesus Christ. Only then
can we fully love our fellowmen.
The love of God shed abroad in
our hearts by the Holy Ghost
which is given unto us, will be
manifest in many practical ways.
Today's lesson has been desig-
nated as the Temperance Lesson
for this quarter. It is appropriate,
too. If we love our fellowmen
we will want to influence them
in the right direction. In the
old days of the saloon, a young
man (whom I came to know in
his later years) took a widow's
son into the bar and treated him
to his first drink. The lad in due
time became a drunk. Today we
would call him an alcoholic. In-
stead of being a help to his
mother he became a burden. He
died young. The man who treat-
ed him later became a devout
Christian through repentance of
his sins and faith in the Lord
Jesus Christ. He became a gifted
and successful minister of the
Gospel. One of the burning re-
grets of his life was that he had
started the other youth on the
way to drunkenness. He himself
had escaped from the tyranny
of strong drink but the other had
succumbed to it.

Of the church, The president, Mrs,

:conomic development in other Indus
`ries. The preservation of the famil,
:arm, better living conditions and se
curity for the Ontario farmer, In:
wife and family, is our main objective
The organization is only as strong a
the membership, and if we are t
keep the farm viewpoint before .ou
legislators we would ask the suppor
of every member in helping to In
crease the membership in the Ontarli
Farmers Union. Women, by the con
stitution, have been given equal right;
and privileges with mon, in this. Th
first family organization in the Can
adian Farm Movement, thereby doubt
ing the membership and strength o
the organization. The promotion n'
•goo(1 public relations with the com
munity leaders and organizations, a
well as capable secretaries and social
conveners, would minimize the value
of women in building this family mem•
bership organization. What members
of the family feels the cost price
squeeze more than the farmhouse
wife? Or can contribute more in the
making of farm policy, With the threat
of the family farm being exploited by
factory farms or vertical integration,
we must give a great deal of consider.
ation to our price support program
The price received must sunply pro
dution cost plus a reasonable profit.
Administration must be in such t
manner that supports are directed tc
the bona fide farmer and are,paid on
an agreed maximum of each farmer's
production. Any additional production
would be sold in the normal manner,
and would not lie eligible for defic.
ieney payments. With our organization
having achieved the increase in com•
pensatiori for cattle ordered destroyed
under the Animal Contagious Disease
Act, we are pressing for animals lost
from Rabies, also_ to be included In
the Act, whereby farmers would re-
ceive comrensatien for their • losses,
free vaccine for cattle and medi-
cal assistance for humans being ex-
posed to rabies, are also being,sought,
