When a city man moved to the country one summer and found that there was no garbage collection, he asked his neighbor, a farmer, what country people do with their gar- bage. "We feed it to the pigs", said the farmer. The city man bought a little pig from the farmer for $12 and fed it garbage during the summer and in the fall when he was returning to the city he asked the farmer what to do with the pig. The farmer offered to buy it, said the city man: "But I don't know about the price. Would 6 be alright, as I have had the use of 'the pig all summer". The Voice Of Temperance The chairman of alcoholic anony- mous reported recently that Toron- to's A. A. membership had reached almost 1000. He said the latest in- novation in A. A. has been the young people's group, which has steadily attracted alcoholics in their 20's and some in their teens. "When I joined A. A. a few years ago, I was the youngest member at the age .of 37", said Art, the anonymous chairman, "But now the average age of our members is in the early 40's, and we are gaining members from young- sters who are recognizing their need for A, A. early in life." The chair- man said that the monthly meetings planned were designed to inform the public of the organization's work and to lead up to the annual Ont- ario conference to be held in Tor- onto in March, which would attract 2,000 members from groups through- out the province. The A. A. is a STANLEY The following re -appointments were made by the Stanley township coun- cil at its inaugural meeting Monday in Varna:'Frank Donelly, Q.C., •Gode- rich, township solicitor; C. B.
