TIMELY TIPS Re -fuel when the motor is cool and keep the chain saw away from the cutting area tthen re -fueling. Never ask anyone else to hold the saw when you're starting the motor. Always check the tree for rot- ten branches and direction of lean before cutting. Look for quick exits before cutting. And keep bystanders out of the way.

Poultry Wins At German ' Fair Canada scored a smashing hit with its poultry display at the Anuga Fair in Cologne, West Germany—the biggest food fair of its kind in the world. F. E. Payne, chief of poultry marketing and merchandising, Canada Department of Agricul- ture, reports that exhibits were submitted by countries from the four corners of the world and that the Canadian one compar- ed very favorably with all oth- ers. While considerable poultry of a mediocre quality has been imported and sold in West Ger- many at low prices, there is a growing demand for a top quaI- ity product. And, adds Mr. Payne, there is a willingness to pay A modest premium for it. Currently popular in West Germany are chicken broilers —mostly sold through large rotisseries operating through- out the entertainment districts of large cities. Europeans patronize these chicken -eating establishments in large numbers and at the same time, often pick up cooked chicken to take home. Many German buyers interviewed by Mr. Payne in• dicated an interest for consum ers with discriminating tastes. Considerable interest w a s shown in Canadian tiixkeys, councils Are Returned As Electors Nominate Ashfield Reeve—Andrew Ritchie, Donald MacKenzie, Q.

The only candidates being nominated for the positions of reeve and four councillors were the incumbent officials. All of- ficials qualified, and Clerk Har- ry Tebbutt proclaimed an ac- clamation for Hullett Township for the ensuing year, The candidates and their nominators and seconders were as follows: For Reeve: Tom Leiper, by William Govier and Chris Ken- nedy. For Councillors: Hugh Flynn. by Harvey Wells and Harvey Hunking; Jim McEwing, by Bert Beacom and John Riley; Clare Vincent, by Lloyd Pipe and Joseph Youngblut; Don Buchanan, by William Jewitt and Ross MacGregor. The Clerk closed the nomina- tions at 2 o'clock and turned the meeting over to the rate- payers, who appointed William Jewitt chairman of the meeting. The treasurer's report was giv- en by the Clerk -Treasurer. From January, 1961, to Novem- ber, 1961, the receipts were $163,431.76, and the disburse- ments were $146,327.98. The road superintendent, Leonard Caldwell, gave a re- port of the bridge and road con- struction for the year. The big items was the construction of a concrete bridge, known as the Quigley Bridge, at lot 19, con. 6 and 7, at an approximate cost particularly lighter - weight birds. Mr. Payne also foresees the possibility of promoting turkey rolls and other packs of solid turkey meats for use in restaurant and catering trades. West Germans, according to Mr. Payne, have their sights set on building up their own poultry industry. They propose buying wheat on the world market, selling it on their own market at an advanced price, and granting a refund to poul- try producers, But, he adds, it may be some years before any large inroad is made into demands for poul- try imports. In Great Britain, the poultry industry is forging ahead. Egg production now fills domestic requirements. While Great Bri- tain still is a country of many small prodticer flocks, the large supplier is coining more into the picture. Newcastle disease laws exclude the possibility of importing uncooked poultry but Mr. Payne forsesees an oppor- tunity of promoting Canadian cooked, canned chicken in Bri- tain. of $50,000. This bridge was started in 1960 and completed in 1961. The road expenditure from January, 1961, to Novem- ber, 1961, was $47,822.39. Reeve Tom Leiper /gave a very comprehensive report on the work of the county council and the councillors were called in their turn and each gave a report on township affairs. Among other things mentioned were the advisability of bien- nial elections and the placing of a limit to the amount of money that could be claimed for damage done by dogs to sheep. At the present time there is a limit on claims for damage done to poultry of $1,000, but there is no limit placed on sheep or cattle, and as there are some large flocks of sheep in the municipality now, it could be disastrous to have an unlimited claim for damage, the councillor felt. Oliver Anderson, the town- ship representative for Seaforth High School, gave a financial report for the current year to November. Robert Thompson, the Clinton representative, gave a report on Clinton High School and also spoke briefly on the new vocational school for Clin- ton district. This is a large project and it is understood that it will cost approximately $1,500,000 to build and equip. This amou.it pparently will be spent by th Federal -Provincial Gove–, Tient, to construct and equip the building, but it will be maintained by the district after construction. Mr. Craig is the Goderich High School representative, but he could not attend the meet- ing. GEORGE McCUTCHEON Realm of Brussels Robert Lyons, Jr.; Gordon Stru- thers; Fred McQuillan; Cyril Doyle.

Potlatch was a word ap- plied to a variety of Indian Feasts and ceremonies at which the giving away of goods was the main feature. An ambi- tious man would save, borrow and receive help from his rel- atives or clan members in or- der to give as large a number of "presents" as possible to all at the Potlatch. He might re- duce himself to destitution in this way, but the fame so achieved would remain a source of pride and glory. The public bestowel of gifts was necessary to validate ev- ery type of activity—marriage or the building of a house, for example. The principal was simple: the greater the value of good the greater the "strength" of whatever was be- ing validated. Jealousies as to relative status were often set- tled by competitions in giving, or sometimes by competitions to see who could destroy the most property, including the burning of canoes or the kill- ing of slaves. An ancient law of India call- ed for the widow to cremate herself on the funeral pyre of her husband.
