Itwas a "red letter day" for' the
Presbyterians of 'Walton, ,when they
called their filet minister,„ elev. 'John
Ferguson, 1$65. There was great en-
thusiasm. Mrs.. McKay,' of Ethel,
coquettishly confided . to the writer:
"We youtig girls' all' voted to call a
ministdr' because some of us wanted
to get Married." During Mr. Fergu-
son's ministry fqr the years 1870 to
1875, the Communion- lion .contains
139 navies. Tony our membership is,
250. Since Rev. John., Ferguson's
(later Dr: Ferguson) time, two local
chtirch, unions have taken place to
form tee preseht congregation. "Be-
hold how good and how pleasant a
thing it is for •brethren to dwell to-
gether in unity."

Subsidies -for eatiningegrops *llt. be
continued this year, it is announced.
Tomatoes get the most attention with
a, $6 ton subsidy for producers selling
to processors—an increase of $3 over
1943. The substdy of $4 remains un-
changed for corn; peas $10 shelled
weight or $2 straw weight; green and
wax beans $7.50 a ton. The govern-
ment is continuing these subsidies in
the fear that other crops requiring
less labor might be substituted. This
fear was borne out by the fact that
production of tomatoes, corn, peas
and beans declined last year.

'There has been quite • a change in
the regulations for Spring seeding -and
harvest leave granted army person-
nel, such leave now being extended
from six weeks to two months. An
interesting factor is that 'restrictions
have been eliminated on the number
who may. be granted agricultural
leave. Last year there was a limit
of five per cent from any particular
unit. This year only those who are
deemed essential, cannot. go. Applica-
tions for leave must come from ,the
'soldiers themselves,, and they must
pay their,. own transportation:

' Five Canadian artists have been ov-
earseas placing on canvas for' future
generations the life of Canada's sons
in World War II. First results have
been included in a recent exhibition
of •war art at the National Gallery in
London, England. From time to time
the finished paintings will be shown
across the Darnielon, eventually to
form a national collection witch will
surely be reflected in the murals ef
Canadian public buildings. The artists
'even shared the life of • operational
stations,' went on coastal patrols, to
get,"the feel" for the canvasses.
At varioustimes farmers have pro-
tested daylight saving as a perman-

outstanding securities to other coun-
tries, the Bureau of Statistics show,

has. been a heavy demand for Cana -

Odds and ends: On charges that
war materials are going to Spelt', the
Prime Minister said the 1943 exports
there were valued at only.. $169,021,
mainly short fibre, asbestos and /le-
