The third .question asked was, 94 a
provincOor region subject to crop fail-
ure should all the farmers who grow
that particular crop share the risks, as
for example, through an insurance
scheme We all agreed that it is alright
in the regions where they have these
failurs but we haven't had any crop
failure here,
The rest of the evening was enjoyed
playing progressive euchre with the
high prizes going to Mrs. Jack Mc-
Kague and Mr., Bill Jenkins, the law

ue and Mr. Harold McCormick, The

Township.

tories which is adversely affecting
British exports.
The shortage of manpower in the
mines is the basic innnediate tronble
which the National Coal Board will
have to solve, • Digging coal is not an
attractive occupation On the best of
terms and yields little more than a
ing wage in Britain, except where
seams are thick and methods are mod-
ern, It is hoped that modern machin-
es, by stepping up production per man-
hour, will make possible both an in-
crease in output and a rise in miner's
living standards,
The Labour Government plans to
spend about $600,000,000, nearly as
much as the capital cost of the mines,
on improvements. That'program will
probably take at least ten years and, in
the meantime, the National Coal Board
and Labour Government face a critical
test of their ability to manage a big
enterprise like State ownership of the
coal industry,
FEED THE BIRDS "
Now that the cold weather and snow
are here, the birds are having a tough
time to survive. Our feathered friends
are far too valuable to lose so have a
heart and give them some crumbs,
suet and table scrapings occasionally
to help tide them over 'till the ground
is bare again.
Place tile food on a bare surface for
it will be lost if thrown in the snow.
A sheltered spot in the lee of buildings
is best and very easy to keep free of
snow. * * *
"THEY WILL PASS"
As we find on entering another year
that we are still faced with world un-
rest, wars, strife, bloodshed, revolu-
tions, and labour troubles, it is well to
remember our King's Christmas Day
message. His MajeSty said: "Our
task is to mobilize the Christmas spirit
and to apply it power and healing to
out' daily life".
"Our hard-won liberties and our de-
mocratic institutions are unimpaired.
Our Commonwealth and ,Empir e,
though subject to the changes that
time must bring, has not been disrupt-
ed by the stress and peril of war. We
are .celebrating Christmas as free men
and in peace".
"And though the clouds are still
dark, there is light behind them, Bet-
ter days lie ahead. Let us not concen-
trate too much on the difficulties of
the .present - - THEY WILL PASS
so rather let us think of the possibili 7
ties that the future may hold for us,"
WEEKLY THOUGHT
A straight line is the shortest dis-
tance between two points, but a rigid,
inflexible, undeviating course through
life is not; always the best. Detours
of diplomacy and consideration for the
feeliit of others,will bring more com-
pany and happiness on life's journey, **C
KNOW WINGHAM
Wingham has an undeveloped. area
of about 70racres within the town
its lying east of the Pleasant Valley
district and north-east of the C,N,R
tracks. This area would be splendid
for industrial development near the
railway and excellent for a residental
district north-east of that, with a love-
ly river vista.
C
SOME DECONTROL COMING
A government announcement outlin-
ing Canada's 1947 price stabilization
policy, covering foods, fuel, rentals and
textiles is expected to be made before
the opening of the new parliarnntary
sssion, January 30th. The new policy
is expected to be a further step in the
government's decontrol program.
It is expected that the government
will relinquish its control over con-
sumer credit, such an instalment buy-
ing, and that the provinces may take
up the restrictions if they wish. It is
thought that ceilings may be removed
from the so-called "hard" consumer
durable good in good supply, and also
on others of which reasonable supplies
are in sight.
Motor cars will likely still remain
under control until production reaches
the point where demands can be met.
Foods, because of their importance to
the cost-of-living index, are expected
to remain under control, although it is
considered possible some canned goods
may be removed front the ceiling when
the 1946 crops have been about clear-
ed from the grocery shelves. This act-
ion might come in the spring and
would leave the 1947 crops control-
free,
Control of textiles is expected to
continue because of the uncertainty of
the United States cotton market; and
fuels, because of their close relation-
ship to rental costs will likely stay un-
der control. Not much change is ex-
pected in rental restrictions.
HURON-BRUCE FORUM
Huron-Bruce Farm Forum met at
the home of Mr. Oscar Holmes on
Monday evening, with an attendance of
21. The topic for discussion was "Ag-
riculture is a Risky Business." The
first question asked was, "What are the
main risks you face in your farming
operations? It was agreed that dis-
eases of livestock, fluctuating markets,
price of feeds, and also pests are the
main risks we face in farming opera-
tions. The second .question was (a),
"Is Government regulation desirable in
AN
the risks you have :Mentioned in ans-
wer to question 1?" We all thought
that it is right to have government
regulation. (b), What assistance is the
government giving now in these risks.
It was. agreed that the government
is giving assistance in making the
treatment of Bang's Disease and War-
ble Fly compulsory and in paying bon-
uses. (c), What - further assistance is
needed?
All groups thought that assistance
was needed to continue subsidies and

Defeated St. Catharines Juveniles
Here Saturday
Before a crowd of some six hundred
fans Saturday evening, the Goderich
Louzons, defeated the St. Catharines
Juvenile A. Sextette 11-3. Both Clubs
displayed plenty of speed, and clever
stick' handling, Soft ice dampered
the St. Kitts team who were accustom-
ed to artificial ice, while the Louzons
capitalized on the visitors handicap in
this respect. Shining lights for Goder-
ich were D. Warren, Doig and •Hater,
while for St. Catharines, Buck and
Maxwell, .were standouts, incidentally
both these boys have been given the
nod by the Toronto Maple Leaf Scouts.
Both Ginn and Tcatero played a stel-
lar game in the hats.

COAL STATE CONTROLLED
The British coal industry became
"rational property on New Year's Day.
approximately 1,500 mines were ac-
gaired by the nation and about 700,000
miners became employees of the State.
Me price paid to the former mine
owners, in shares not yet finally deter-
mined, will amount to around $650,000-
'CM They, were apparently satisfied
• "with the bargain for there has • been
no complaint that the owners were un-
fairly treated.
Coal is Britain's basic product - - as
iinlportant as wheat to Canada. It us-
td to 'be a, major expert but that is no
Banger true. Coal provides virtually
a the heat, light and power consumed
British homes and factories. There
are more people employed in coal min-
,
ing in Br'itai'n than in any other single
industry except farming. The Labour
Government has taken on a very large
Balminess enterprise, perhaps the largest
yet tackled by a' democratic State.
There is an acute shortage of coal
in Britain. The new National Coal
Board, which has a long-term program
of modernizing in view, faces a short-
'N''''a,zaL problem which amounts to a nat-
ional emergency. The shortage of coal
is adding to the discomforts of auster-
ity .and Is causing a shutdown of fac-
