Dun- can, 'Poultry Department, Ontario Ag- secultural College. Pullets shoutidnet her put in ,pens that have housed; year- ling birds until a thoro,ligh .clealting and disinfectieg has. -taken ,place, he warned, In many eases, .the old, birds are 'sold. Less often they may go out on range for a rest before starting an- other season. Whatever happens, the pens that have been vacated should be cleaned at once. The longer the cleaned pens are vacant before the pullets go in or the yearlings are re- turned, the better. Clean out all litter and droppings and then give the pens ani all equip- ment a thorough soaking with water and let stand long enough to loosen all encrusted material. When this has, taken place, remover an dirt from floors, roosts and •equipment. If water pressure is. avaiable, ,this can be ac- companied with hose. Lacking this, they should be scrubbed with a three per cent .Iye solution. When the pen and equipment have become reasonably dry, they should be sprayed with a good. disinfectant. If it is desired to brighten up the pen, a combined disinfectant and whitewash spray may be used. As soon as the pens are thoroughly dry, gut in the new litter. Along with this annual cleanup, it as well to see that houses, windows, ventilating systems, roosts' or drop- pings and all equipment are in good repair.

OCAMMU4 Pnreldewl t+, a Keeping It Rich ' Medical men know that , many bealth-giving foods we eat regularly do us less good than they might be- cause they are improperly prepared for the table. In Canada a tradition- al method of preparing potatoes, for instance, is to boil and mash them. This process destroys about half the valua,ble vitamin 0 in them. Baked in their jackets they retain almost all of this element so vital in keeping the body's tissues healthy. Too Much Water Cool, clear water is fine for drink- ing. But nutritionists say that for cooking vegetables it is not so de- sirable. Water for cooking should be boiling and salted when the vege- tables are placed in it. For root vege- tables just enough water to cover is usually sufficient and for green vege- tables only what -clings to the leaves after washing. Vitamins and miner- als dissolve in cooking water and the more water used, the more 'will be dissolved. Cinders and Sight Caution should be observed when foreign bodies lodge in the eyes as medical men know such bits of dust and grit may cause very seriou' dam- age. Usually the individual can re- move the foreign body by irrigating the eye with boiled water or with .boracic acid solution using a clean medicine dropper. The solution should be dropped into the eye at the corner nearest the nose, holding the head so that it will run out at the other side. Tears will help remove the particle. If additional help is required, see a doctor at once. Lunch Box Meals A child's health as well as his pro- gress and interest in school may be affected by the meals he eats each day. Therefore doctors emphasize that it is important 'for parents to re- alize that the school lunch is more than a mid-day snack; it is a mid- day meal. One of the best ways to help the child do his best work at school is to make sure that the mid- day meal is a good one. A good lunch should include at least one selection of meat, milk, whole wheat or Can- ada approved bread and fruit or vege- tables. Hot Stuff Nutrition experts point out that by taking a, little more time, a mother may give her child a steaming hot, appetizing dish with his school lunch. To do this the mother should select some food that can be successfully reheated and place it in a par label- led with his name. This will be heat- ed in a hot water bath at the school. •Some suggestions for a hot dish in- clude creamed beef, vegetable scal- lop, fish chowder, stew, potato Scal- lop with sausage or bacon, beans or meat pie. Healthy Eyes Eye conditions may be caused by a general physical condition such as diabetes, high blood pressure or kid- ney trouble. For this reason it is nec- essary to secure expert medical care for :such troubles as their control is impoqant in maintaining healthy eyes and 4p the conservation of sight. A regular eye examination once •a year is recommended by health authorities and especially so if the individual is, doing a considerable amount of close work. Fashion Formed Doctors. say no part of the body un- dergoes so many insulets as does the foot. Even before the baby le horn preparations are made to have boot- ees on hand to greet its arrival and front its .birth it is seldom without some form of shoe. Children and ,pleat men can generally obtain rens- : onabl 1 suitable shoes but from adoles- EARIIY MINISTERS TELL DIFFICULTIES OF FORMER YEARS (By Lillian Collier Gray, in the London Free Press) In 1835, early in the new year, the MVLissi•onary Presbytery of the Canadas in connection with the United,Associ- ate Synod of the Secession Church in Scotland, sent out Rev. William Proudfoot, clerk of the Presbytery, and Rev. Thomas Christie, moderator, to visit all the churches and preach- ing stations in Upper Canada, to ex- amine their state and assist them with advice in regard to difficulties and problems_ The tour was commenced on January 19 and completed early in March, The two missionaries travel- led 700 miles, in sleighs„ in wagons or on foot through the bush. They gave a detailed report of conditions as they found them in' some 20 dis- tricts. In the Townships of London and Westminster three organized Presby- terian churches and three preaching stat.inns were reported, with a total of 250 members. It is interesting to read that "the preaching stations are chief- ly for the benefit of the females 'and, elderly persons of the congregations who live at a distance from the place of public worship." This would seem to indicate that the males did not ob- ject, in those days, to travelling long distances, probably on foot, to wor ship. In the Village of London a church was under construction. The sum of $423 had been spent on it and $700 was needed to complete the building. London had at that date a populat.icn of 1,100; of these more than half had no connection with any church. It was stated that two ministers were necraed in the township, one for a church at Proof -line., to be ready in June, and one for the English settle- ment together with one of the preach- ing stations.Thecongregation e co a actio the g noftt g English settlement was worshipping to a log schoolhouse which was much too small. The visiting missionaries were told that in London much good work had been done by the church. The people were all "living in pea“. - There had been three cases requiring the cognizarce of the session, one los violating the Third Commandment, one for the Seventh and one for the Eighth. Goderich did not receive so blame- less a report as hacl London. The cence onwards women's feet are twisted and battered to the caprice of fashion. The high heel is general- ly regarded as fashionable but medi- cal authorities regard it as an ever fruitful source of foot discomfort and disability. Food For Growth Teen-agers play hard, grow fast—I and find time to study between times. Generally they are as hungry as wolves. They need plenty of the right foods to give them energy and growing power and vitality. Parents usually have little trouble persuading their teen -aged children to eat well. It is merely a matter of supplying the right foods including milk, fruits, vegetables, whole grain cereals. And for 'teeners, the servings should be large. Pride's Penalty Transgression of nature's require- ments in the use of the feet usually carries a penalty and so it is that the feet are subject to many disabilities, 'Probably the' most common of these is foot -strain, the condition generally known as fallen arches. In most cas- es a course of foot drill will bring about a cure but in advanced cases it may be necessary for the patient to remain in bed for a week or two be- fore beginning foot drills. FrequentIy excessive .body-weight is a potent fac- tor in producing foot strain. Keep Them Small Parents often pay littel attention to the food they serve their pre-school age children. Nutritionists suggest that if the parents eat properly the youngster can have the same foods !btft he needs it in smaller servings. In some cases this may mean a child should have five meals a day Instead of three, especially if he is ander- weight. Most children like new foods. but they require time to get Used• to them so it is beat to introduce new foods 'gradually, Preschool ager8.;still need cod fiver oil regularly - r sRgr • � , *8 3asi; preaGalax�. 4S4: sen 4,err , 'b>}t 4l;11,7it hp;0. oke t . , epz #9,§04le to won gro,Rtti nt w kt g ler ill tor, • X ilk v t iu ley 5" Bonnet' the S,.100est the• jilts e bad Grir:adi tulce tl: over.

Until the chierches Gould be erected. worship was to be herd whenever possible in the schoolhouse, where Episcoppaliane were also holding services. Some time before the visit of the missionaries to Stanley and Tucker - smith Townships, Presbyterians there had made •application for a minister and had agreed to .pay for his sup- port. The settlers in that part of the Huron Tract were described as being "a praying people," family worship being observed in all cases but one, and not observed there only beeause the husband spoke little English and the wife could not understand Gaelic, but ,both were "believed to be pious." These townships were advised to ask the Canada Company for land for a meeting -house, manse and glebe. Around Rrosts, the residence of Col. Van Egmond, 18 miles from Goderich. on the road to Guelph, there were 47 Presbyterian families. These people congregated at Van Egmond's for ser- vice held by the visiting missionar- _es. The two sons of Van Egmond :vent out with sleighs and gathered up .the women• and children and re- turned them to their homes after the meeting. Van Egmond was described as "a Dutchman, a Presbyterian, very earnest for religious ordinances," and also as being "the chief man of the settlement, very highly, and we think deservedly, respected." The people desired) both aminister and a school- master, and it was decided that if someone might be obtained who could fill both offices they would be able to support him by their own contribu- tions. These people, too, made appeal to the Canada 'Co. for a grant of land:. For 40 miles after leaving Ross the travellers found the land "poor and swampy," with few settlers occupying it. For another 24 miles it was well settled, chiefly by Dutch people hav- ing "noble" farms and many of them being Amish, In Guelph, "a thriving village.," they found a "destitute cor- dition" spiritually. This was also said to be true of Puslinch and Eramos•a. Guelph had an Episcopal, a Catholic and a Presbyterian Church, all poor- ly attended. A few persons had fe't it their duty to leave the kirk "on ac- count of indiscriminate admission to the privileges of the church and other things„” and they had; engaged an English Independent, a member of the first Presbytery of New York, for six months, and for a sum of £50, which three of th members had become sur- ety for. The two inissionatdies visited sev- eral other charges and in almost ev- ery case they ,apparently found the same conditions. Returns By Air From England After a sojourn of ten months in England, Mr. Samuel Argyle, Gr., has returned to Goderich. Mr. Argyle travelled by plane and arrived at Lon- don, Ont., airport at 9.15 on Sunday, after a fast and enjoyable trip. He is a native of England and is a staunch Britisher. He had lived in Canada for eighteen months prior to this visit with relatives in Bognor, Sussex. Owing to gas rationing he was unable to see many friends at other points. He loves England, but is strong also in his admiration for Canada. He resides with his son's family on Britannia Road.—Goderich Signal -Star. nee Your re is ore of.the l S irpo'tp ever sign). as ;eeur: p'esep,� spry facilities and 'quo,100s1 f your wishes while. prrova>d� g ,rc tion for your family The Canada Trust Corn is with over 45 years' experience --res fully 4411,0 to act as your executor.

The delegates who vote on ques- tions put to the floor will, m a sense, represent the twelve millions of people of the Dominion. The delegation which will vote will comprise all Liberal M.P.'s and men and women who were Liberal candidates of the last federal elec- tion. There will be 735 delegates proper from the constituencies in the nine provinces, and 735 alter- nates. The Senate will be repre- sented by 62; provincial represen- tatives will total 140; there will be 12 national and provincial Liberal association presidents. Represen- tation of provincial Liberal associa- tions will be impressive. There will be 27 from women's associations; 27 from young Liberal associations; 51 from university Liberal clubs. Public and party interest, of course, will center upon selection of the man who will follow Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King as Leader of the Liberal Party and as next Prime Minister of Canada. That election will be an out -in -the - open affair. Nominations will be thrown open and there will be no restriction as to the number of people who may be proposed and seconded for the balloting. The balloting itself will take place on the last day of the convention and will be accompanied by every known device to insure that the votes truly express the free will of the delegates. The ballot forms were printed two weeks ago; and upon their arrival were stored in a safety vault by a group of offi- cials of the National Convention Committee. Just before the ballot- ing is due at the convention, these ballots will be taken from the vault —again by several officials of the Convention Committee and THESE BALLOT PAPERS, being printed for the National Liberal Convention to be held in Ottawa, August 5-7, will decide who shall succeed Rt. icon. W. L. Mackenzie King as Leader of the Liberal Party. The printing, collating and stitching of these ballot papers necessitated speeial measures to insure protection of the documents, which later were transported to a safety vault in Ottawa, there to remain until taken under guard to the floor of the Convention for use by 1299 delegates. transported under guard to the Coliseum. There, under the eye of officially appointed returning offi- cers and scrutineers, the beliefs will be opened And distributed to the voting delegates. After each vote, the counting will be done also under the eyes of scrutineers. The Convention, the third which the Liberal Party has held since Confederation, will bring to Ottawa more than 3,000 Party members. At the C‘liseum, where sessions will take place, there will he ample accommodation, for the nubile in addition to delegates: The official programme follows: August 4—Regratt'atiun.
