Story of Moffatt Family Recalls Early Stanley Days • (Clinton News -Record) The older citizens of Varna will be interested to recall that over 60 years ago, long before the advent of electricity in the neigh- borhood, the streets of the village were lighted at night by large orn- amental oil lanterns mounted on cedar posts. They stood in front of Purdey's Carriage Shop, Beat- ty's Store, Cook's Hotel, English Church, Methodist Church, Secord's Store, S. A. Moffatt's residence, the harness shop and in front of the home of James Wanless. This community service, well in advance of its day, was made pos- sible through the enterprise and generosity of two pioneer citizens of those days, Joshia Secord, a rel- ative of Laura Secord, the Canadian heroine, who owned the store where the mill now stands and liv- ed in the house now owned by Mrs, Alex McConnell—and by S. A. Moffatt who lived on the north- east corner in the house which he built, now owned by Alfred Ings. He also owned two farms east of Malting Barley We are again contracting Barley with the Canada Malting Company Look at the Advantages of Contract Barley: 1.

Ally; the village, the John Patton farm and the Arthur Forbes farm. S. A. Moffatt was also a busi- ness man. For 27 years he was the general agent in Western On- tario for John Harris & Co.. Brant- ford, and continued with the new firm after the amalgamation of the Harris Company with Massey of Toronto, to form the now world- famous Massey -Harris Company. John Harris and S. A. Moffatt became close friends, not only in business, but also in private life. One day, in a serious mood, they agreed to name their first-born sons alike. Lloyd Harris was born several years before Lloyd Moffatt and when he grew to manhood en- tered his father's business and fed- eral politics. He represented Brantford for several years in the Dominion Parliament. During the First World War he declined the cabinet folio of Finance Minister, but accepted the post of Dom- inion Government Commissioner at Washington and later in London England. He died a millionaire. Like their fathers, the two sons were good friends. Lloyd Moffatt today is a successful dentist and businessman of London, and stil owns the two farms of his father. Of stil further historic interest one can see today in use on these farms the original large ornamen tal street lamps that first lighted the corner of Dundas and Rich mond Streets, London, Ont., and an iron post in the form of a cross that in the early days supported a gas lamp that stood in fropt of St. James' Westminister Church London South. 9F +aF * The ,present eeriels of topics 'be- jug discussed by the. Ontario Form' Fortin groups deals 'with problems of nation-wide importance. On Feb. the Foruin , discussed " Shquld Agricultural Production Be Cont, trolled?" On Feb. 12 the topic for discussion was, "Do We Need a World Food Bank?" and the topic - for Feb. 19, "What Has Accomplished?" From the opinions expressed on the first topic relating to the con - trot of agricultural production, our forums did not all agree, that con- trols were necessary et the present time. We have rising prices, ex- panding markets, and decreased production. All these facts would certainly point away from any at- tempt to control production at the present time. It was capably ex- pressed by some of our forums that low support prices like we have on eggs and butter, have a tendency to control production. Up to the week ending Feb. 3, egg production in Ontario declined by approxi- mately 20,000 cases from the same period last year. Production of butter fat for 1950 was down ap- proximately 18 per cent. These fig- ures would certainly support the argument tthat a low support price will control production of certain products. Many forums suggested that any surplus food we have should be sent to areas where a shortage ex- ists and the Government should subsidize the producer. This opin- ion set the stage for the next week's topic on a world food bank. We all seem to agree that a world food organization is neces- sary, but our Governments cannot agree on how this should come about. Canada has made every ef- tort to have such an organization come into existence. Almost every country has some surplus products that they could put into an inter- national clearing house, where it could be exchanged for goods that were in short supply. The big stumbling block is the difference in value of world currency. If we could get our world diplomats down to the level of our old-fashioned horse -traders, they would be able to solve the currency problem. Due to the lack of success ob- tained by world Governments deal- ing with the question of surpluses, the farm organizations set up an international organization of their own. This is called I.F.A.P. Twen- ty-six countries are represented in the International Federation of Agricultural Producers. This or- ganization has recommended an International commodity clearing house to handle surplus food pro- ducts. To date the Governments of member nations have not ac- cepted this idea. If we can solve the problem of surplus and famine throughout the world, we have removed one of the main causes of war.
