Tickets for the sixtieth anniversary banquet were on sale, and anyone wish- ing a ticket should contact Mrs. R. J. Doig or Mrs. Wilfred Cole- man.

HUGH ALEXANDER Mrs. Hannah Minetta Alexan- der, 81, passed away suddenly at Scott Memorial Hospital, Sun- day, Jan. 13. Formerly Hannah Minetta McCutcheon, daughter of the late David McCuteheon and Elizabeth Dynes, Mrs. Alex- ander was born in Grey Town- ship, Feb. 28, 1881. She was married •March 4, 1903, to Mr. Hugh Alexander, of McKillop Township, who predeceased her in July, 1955. Mrs. Alexander is survived by five children: Mrs. J. F. (Mar- garet) Easun, of Stratford; Mrs, H. (Helen) Shannon, Seaforth; Mrs. J. (Jean) MacDougall, Haileybury; William S. and Ar- thur G. Alexander, of McKillop; by 12 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren; also by five sisters, Mrs, K. (Elizabeth) McLean, Mrs. A. H. (Bella) Snell, Regina, Sask.; Mrs. C, (Evelyn) Rombough, Long Beach, Calif.; Miss Elsie M. Mc- Cutcheon, Regina, and Mrs. C. Reding, Tacoma, Wash.; by one brother, George McCutcheon, Grey, Sask. Another brother, Edgar, died soine years ago. Mrs. Alexander was a mem- ber of Cavan United Church and lately of Northside United Church. She was a life mem- ber of the UCW. The funeral service was held Wednesday at the Box Funeral Horne with temporary entomb- ment in Elizabeth Ritz Memor- ial Mausoleum, Mitchell. Pallbearers were Stanley Hil- len, Harvey Moore, Roy Patrick,. Bill Smith, Earl McSpadden and Oscar Cuthill. Flowerbearers were Edward Pryce, Bob Smith, John Leeming and Robt. Dodds. FLOWER WREATHS KEPT GREEK HEADS COOL After a banquet in -ancient Greece, the guests and hosts were crowned with flower wreaths by the slave attend ants, the Encyclopedia Ameri- cana relates. These were re- newed from time to time dur- ing the drinking bout that eus-. tomarily followed, as they serv- ed ereed to' keep the head cool. MAGNA CHARTA LIMITED FINES. Judicial fineS were limited in England from early times, ac- cording to a rule later incor- porated in the Magna Charta, states the Encyclopedia Ameri- cana. No fine could deprive a man of his means of livelihood. The landowner had to be left his land, the merchant ,his stock and the husbandman his team of oxen and farming imple- ments. NEWS OF ,BRODHAGEN Returns on Farni.Produt' Increases In .50 Years Of all farm products, hay is the only product • selling today for about the same price ---$12 —as it brought 50 years ago, Mayor Ernie Fisher, of Gode- rich, told members of the Brod- hagen Chamber of Commerce on Thursday. Tracing the returns which farmers enjoyed since 1912 and relating their circumstances to urban development, Mr. Fisher showed that beef cattle increas- ed on the average from $6 to $12 in 1962; hogs from $8.00 to $29, chickens from 1:2 cents to 20 cents, butterfat from 18 cents to 68 cents, corn 61 cents to 68 cents, wheat 92 cents to $1.65, eggs 22 cents to 32 cents, potatoes 60 cents to $1.25, and apples $1.10 to $1.50. Warning that while the new year brings a new challenge and <a new hope, it must be tem- pered with caution, since rapid economic development has brought numerous and complex problems. These problems, as they af- fect farmers, have contributed to a movement away from the farm, the speaker said. Most Canadians, one imagines, are aware of the trend away from farm work and country life. Few, perhaps, realize the extent of it. Flight from farm to city ov- er, 10 -year period: 1952, 1,200,- 000 working on farm; 1962, 800,000 working on farm. De- crease, 400,000 persons. Population rise in Canada during the same period: 1952, 13,700,000; 1962, 17,800,000; in- crease, 4,000,000 people. Mechanization has greatly in- creased farm production. There is a greater amount of acreage owned by one family the last 10 years than any time in our history—more acreage per fam- ily, less families per area, more production per labor hours. This means that fewer farmers are producing the vitally need- ed food for a larger majority of our population. This fact points to the fact that the farm- er is a more important person of our society than ever before. He must accept a heavy respon- sibility with a strong sense of duty and dedication. All gov- ernments must also recognize this important and vital . factar, Mayor Fisher added. Pointing up a particular dif- ference that was apparent be cause of the different approach The chances of someone keep- ing your secret are about 40 to 1 against you.

On Monday I found myself snowshoeing on the road. Per- haps we should forget about buses and get snowmobiles or 'hovercrafts instead. That way, we wouldn't 'have to worry about the roads at all, and per. haps the drivers could be per- suaded to come right to the houses. Groundhog Day is less than three weeks away.

We are delighted to have her MODERN ViKINGS Norwegians have actively continued the old Viking •tra- dition of exploration, says the Book of Knowledge. It cites Fridt,iof Nansen who was the first man to cross Greenland, back in 1888.

I am convinced that every- one truly enjoyed himself, con- trary to• some expectations: ("How can anything education- al be fun?") I'd like to thank our (shall I say "baby-sitteru?) English teacher, Mrs. Robinson, for putting 'up with us on the way down and back, and for her quick action in getting the tickets and thus avoiding dis- appointment. •of today's generation, Mr. Fish- er said the the people years ago operated on a, more or less' pay-as-you-go basis. "This •means more financial and monetary stability than today — perhaps even more important, this sta- bility was respected and desir- ed," •he said. Normally, few of us give much thought to the' impact of indus- try on a community, he said. In this, as in most other mat- ters, there is so much we ord- inarily take for granted. The building of a new factory or the expansion of an' existing manufacturing plant means more jobs for those who live not only in the municipality di- rectly concerned, but the ad- vantages spread along a wide path in the whole area. It ev- en goes much deeper than that. It means a chain reaction which results in the expansion of. the whole community and of course an increase in the level of prosperity, "Townships as well as towns and • cities must .recognize the importance of industrial as- sessment to their own commun- ity. The purely residential and farm areas are costly to the taxpayer for in purely residen- tial areas recreational facilities, schools, churches and many other services must be provid- ed to cope with the ever-increas- ing population. Industrial as- sessments are required to bal- ance off such expenditures. Townships and small communi- ties must therefore embark on a program of planning their respective areas of control. A healthy ration of industrial versus residential assessment is somewhere in the 50/50 ratio or 60/40 range. The high- er the industrial assessments the lower the residential tax structure," the speaker warned, and added that township tax structure varies widely. Many townships before equalization, he said, held •a high assessment figure to "obtain the one mill government - subsidy, Others, however, held the. assessment down to a minimum to discour- age large payments into the county system. The speaker went on to.poin out the impact an industry i an area town had on smalle centres, such as Brodhagen, Using a Seaforth indust employing 159, as an examp he said 47 employees lived ou of Seaforth. This group had a annual payroll of $105,600 which benefitted the centres i which the employees lived, in eluding Morris, Goderich, Tuck- ersmith, Hay, Dublin, Hullett McKillop, L o g a n, Hibbert Blyth, Clinton and Mitchell. Taxes Are Less Discussing municipal taxes in relation to income, Mr. Fisher pointed out that in 1912 the average yearly farm wage, in- cluding board, was $252,00, and that each $1,000 of assessment represented on the average eight days of work: Today, the average wage is $2,160, whil 51/2 days work represents $1, 000 in farm assessment, despite the increase from 8 mills to 54 mills in the tax rate during the same period. Noting a need to preserve lo- cal autonomy, Mayor Fisher concluded by suggesting that we must genuinely unite our fforts through proven progess- s of democratic government to eep Ontario with its hundreds f communities, marching for- ard with the same dedicated ourage of our pioneering fore - ethers. We must be willing to raw on' our rich Canadian el'itage with its great princi- les of knowledge, justice, hon - r and ,freedom, to fulfill our istorical destiny by preserving nd increasing our vital local utonomy. More than ever be - ore we need proficient and un avering men and women— en with community spirit and evotion to duty, who will con ibute their energy, their judg- ent and their foresight in culling the strong links in e chain of successful opera - on of our community with all s complexities. "With this thought in mind, believe each one of us would well to ask ourselves- in all ncerity: What am I doing to ild a better community?" he id. The annual meeting of the odhagen and District G`ljene m ✓ of •Comerce was held at e Community Hall with a nner of barbecued pig tails. ere were about 45 attending.
