C. Vaughan, C.M.G., chairman and president of the Canadian National Railways, officially inspected the new research and testing laboratories of the company. Designed primarily to evaluate the merits and qualities of the thousands of dollars worth of materials and supplies purchased daily by the railway, to discover new and better products, and to check and revise specifications for the multiform requirements of the system and its ancilliary companies, it has taken two years to bring the three sections of the new laboratories into full operation. Samples from every part of the country are tested in the C.N.R. plant at Montreal, and research is underway to develop and expand Canadian sources of supply. Mr. Vaughan is shown, left, with Robert Rennie, assistant chief chemist, and S. W. Fairweather, vice-president of research apd develop- ment, examining a polarograph analysis of paint.

Kalbfleisch. The Separate School Board in thedistrict having the largest ag- gregate ggregate attendance for the pre- vious year, as certified by the Sep- arate School Inspector, is R.C.S.S. No. 1, Hay, and, its representative Is Alex J. Masse. Huron County Council is represented. by Dr.' H. H. Cowen, of Exeter; K. H. Johns, Usborne, and Arthur Finkboiner, of Stephen. Dr. H. 11. Cowen, who was ap- pointed chairman for 1949, in his introductory remarks. the nked the former members for theireco-oper- ation in 1948 and welcomed the new members to their duties on the board. He briefly reviewed the ac- complishments of last year. The Board had selected the architects, purchased a site, and secured a tender for a new high school. The actual construction., begun Oct. 20, had made progress because of the unusually favorable weather. The brick wall of the gymnasium is now being laid, and the forms are being prepared for pouring the concrete supports to the second floor. The boilers are expected shortly and the cefnent floor of the boiler house will soon be ready. Other officers of the Board were chosen as follows: Vice-chairman, E. L. Mickle, Hensall; secretary - treasurer, E. D, Howey; attend- ance offirer, George TinneY. HENSALL The meeting of the Wohelo Class took place in the United' Church Sunday Sebool room on Monday night, 'aft which Mrs. D. Kyle pre- sided. The hymn, "Jesus, Lover Of Mn'Soul," was sung, after which the Lord's Prayer was repeated. Gladys Luker read the Scripture lesson, Matthew 19, verses 13-30. Mrs. D. Kyle gave a devotional it- em, 'Religion." Rev. R. A. Brook offered prayer. Mrs. J. Corbett presented a reading. "Recipe For the New Year." Enjoyable vocal duets were rendered by Mrs. Hed dess and Mrs. Hess, "My Happi- ness" and "Now is the Hour." The hymn, "I Would Be True," was used. Mrs. Sanderson contributed several delightful poems. Mr. J. Horton favored with a pleasing vio- lin solo, "Gloaming." The financial statement was read by Mrs. Kyle. At this point Mrs. Kyle called up- on Rev. Brook to take charge of the business session. In view of the fact that Miss Ellis is unable to continue her duties as teacher of the class. her resignation was accepted with regret. However, she will remain as honorary teach- er of the group. Mrs. Kyle and. Miss Dorothy McNaughton were chosen to contact. several persons suggested as leader's, and thus se- cure a teacher. The following new slate of officers was. named: Presi- dent. Mrs D. Kyle; vice-president, Ed. Corbett; secretary, Gladys Luk- er; treasurer, Dorothy McNaugh- ton; pianist,,Betty Mickle; buying Committee, Eleanor 'Cook, Mrs. R, Drysdale. The collection was tak- en. It. waft decided to hold the monthly class meeting on the fourth Monday of each month, The Meeting closed with the singing of the hrfnn, "Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee," and the Mizpah benediction. Several interesting contests followed under the direc- tion of Mrs. R. Drysdale. At the Close delicious refreshments were SetVed. c)y otfawa observer A statement issued last week by' the Controller of the Treasury covering revenues and expendi- tures of the government of Canada for the period of nine months clos- ing December 31, 1948, showed a budgetary surplus for those nine months of 609.9 millions. This fig- ure compares with a similar sur- plus of 646.2 millions accumulated at this same date a year ago. The comparison shows that if revenues and expenditures for the last three months of this fiscal year remain- ed at exactly the same rate as last year, the actual budgetary surplus at April 1, 1949. would ,be some - What smaller than last year's sur- plus and within accurate range of the actual forecast made by the Minister of Finance in presenting his last budget when a surplus for this year of 549 millions was fore- seen.' This is a long way from the 1 a1 - lion dollar surplus that was being decried by numerous politically - minded economists and observers last October. As pointed out by the Minister of Finance the present figure of 609.9 millions is strictly of interim nature. It is very likely to be re- duced when certain expenditures which arc' ordinarily not recorded in the 'government's accounts until right at the end of the year are actually recorded. Liberals Meet Again For two days immediately 'pre- ceding the opening of the present session of Parliament and on the day of the opening itself, the Ad- visory Council, governing body of the National Liberal Federation of Canada, held Sessions of its own in Ottawa_ This council is made up of twenty Liberal representa- tives from each province of Can- ada, from Women's Liberal Assoc- iations and from Young Liberal Associations. During each of those three days Liberals from the At- lantic to the Pacific gathered in committees and in general meet- ings to assess work completed, since the National Liberal Con- vention of last August, and to make plans for a possible general election within the next twelve to eighteen months. Optimism was rampant throughout the delibera- tions and victory was in the air when a rally of nearly a thousand persons cheered. Mr. St. Laurent in his first appearance as Prime Min- ister of Canada before the party itself. P.C.'s Prepare While Liberal leaders were dis- cussing party affairs in Ottawa, a few blocks away in the opposition caucus room of the House of Com- mons, P.C. members of the present Parliament were bolding a pre - session caucus and devising ways and means of accomplishing their rale of His Majesty's Loyal Op- position while at the same time in- creasing their political prestige and their appeal to Canadian vot- ers. - Interchangeability In announcing, lastweek, a num- ber of changes in high ranking of- ficials of the government, the Prime Minister affirmed the pres- ent administration's belief that competent officials holding senior positions in various departments, may be shifted from one depart. went to another. This departure from what had become the accept- ed procedure should result in new vigour and new enthusiasm in out' Civil -Service.

While playing hockey with a Scottish hockey team, Ken 'Doig, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Doig, Tuckersmitii, suffered a fractured! collarbone just before Christmas His landlady, in a letter to Mrs. Doig, told her of the intjury, while a short while later Ken himself was able to write his parents. "Dear Mrs. Doig: This is just a few lines. I don't want you to get all worried. 'Ken was playing de- fence on Saturday night' and got a knock, which broke his collarbone. They took him to the infirmary; Later we brought him home. They strapped him up. Poor Ken, it was very sore and most uncomfort- able. He had to go again this morning to the infirmary, and they re -strapped it. Ken saw the X-ray plates. He says it is a pretty bad break. I am so sorry for him; I could weep every time 'I look at him, 'He is asleep just now on the settee in front of the fireplace. Don't worry about him, Mrs. Daig, I will do what I can for him, but I know how mothers worry. I am really glad my son does not play' hockey. He wants to and is very keen, but, oh dear! I feel I would, want to be on the ice with him to 'catch him if he were to fall. (Stup- id, I know). The boys are away playing in Dunfirmline tonight. Ken was feel- ing it pretty bad; it will be some time before he plays again. Ev- eryone will mins him. He really works hard and• plays so well. Ken may be able to write to you himself in a day or two. Heaps of love from him; ' he often talks about you and bis father and bro- thers. Don't worry. •Please excuse scribble," 'Dear Mrs. Doig: I intended wriling last week, but 1 have been so busy in the house and. going to the. hospital to Ken. They sent him there last week; he seemed. much better yesterday when I was there. I expect he will be in 0 cast next week. I should think he will be there for at least another three weeks, but do not worry, he is be- ing well looked after, and the boys came with me yesterday and Ken had a good laugh with us all. The team misses him very much and I do too. He said to me yesterday': 'Oh, gee! To be back in my bed at 25A!' However, I am planning a party for Ken when he comes to his Perth home. We took him lots of •eats and things for Christ- mas. hristmas. His shoulder is set now, and he is not suffering so much. I wilr now write les address,dear, in case I forget: Ward M, Bridge- of-Earu, Hospital, Perthshire, Scot- land." "Dear Mum: I'm writing this letter while I am lying flat on my back, so it won't be a very long one. As you probably know by now, I have broken my collarbone and am confined' to a bed in Bridge - of -Earn Hospital for three weeks. I had a pretty good Christmas, considering I spent it flat on my back with a sand bag between my shoulder blades and no pillow at all. "The boys have been good to me and 'brought me out fruit and Christmas cake and stuff, but I miss being home. "If you see Rod, thank hint for the box be sent me, as this is the only letter I'll be writing for about three weeks. It is a real nice place out here, and there are about 25 of us in one ward. E'veryone has a broken bone of some kind. W.ell. Mum, my arm is just about falling off, so I will say 'so long' for a week or so."
