Reeve Merritt was chosen as chairman, and called on the first speaker, Franklin Bainton, a member of la's't year's Council. Franklin: Bainton In his remarks Mr. Bainton said bo couldn't see where his services' had been et much use during the year. Any major change that he had been in favour of had been defeated, 1 -Ie said lie w'o.ld consider standing again. I -le hoped that some day a Council would be elected in Blyth the members of which would speak for themselves, not running to and fro across the the street for fresh ammunition, He thanked Ws stover and seconder, and tock 111ta scJ:. Herbert Dexter 1Iaibert Dexter, also a member o2 last year Council, was called next, He thanked his mover and .seconder, and said he had done the beast he could during the year just closing for the A'Iuni'cipality. He hoped to do better next year. Emmerson Wright Mr. Emmerson Wright, also a mem- ber of the 1943 Council, expressed Ms intention to stand for the Council for 1044. This had been his first year, and he believed he had gained experi- ence that would enable him to serve the Municipality better during 1944. Ho thanked hits mover and seconder, and wished all the compliments of the s•.'as.on. A, L. Kernick Mr, Armand Kernick, one of the ne,w nominees for Council was next ,ailed, Mr. Kernick spoke briefly, stating that he intended to let his name go on the ballot for Councillor. If elected he would do the best he could for the Municipality, R. D. Philp Mr. R. D. Philp, another new nom- inee for Council, opened his remarks 'by thanking his mover and seconder, saying that 11e was glad there wan still two men in Blyth who had con- fidence enough hr hint to believe that he could bo of rorvlco to the town. He spoke of his long term as Treas- urer of the Village, and of the differ- ent criticisms Ile had received while acting in that capacity, Statements had been attributed to hint .which he had never made, and he felt that his entry into the Municipal field would circumstance of only create disunity, which he desired no part, Lorne Scrimgeour. Mr. Scrimgeour, another member of the 1913 Council, opened his remarks by noting that his name;, had always been the last to appear in the Coun- cil minutes, Ile and another Council- lor had been in the minority all the year, Tho attitude of the Council had been to knock) everything cold that he had suggested. Ile couldn't have been wrong all the time, At the first of the year applications had been sought for the position of Clerk and Treasurer, and although, he believed suitable applications had been obtain ed, they were ignored, and appoint• lnents made,. He had suggested the abolition of certain town Insurance, which had also been voted down. He deplored the lack of in'teres't shown 'by ratepayers in their Council meet- ings, Ile did not think the meetings should be held behind the curtain, but that they tThould be thrown back, and at least one hundred taxpayers pres- ent at every meeting. He spoke of certain elements which were trying to run the town. If elected he would not cater to any click. Harold T. Vodden Mr, Harold Vodden, another new 'man in the Municipal field, was next called,.-and_spoke .briefly, . Be. thanked This mover and seconder, and said that ;he intended to let Itis name stand for Council for 10144. If elected he would do lila best in helping to administer tho affairs of the town. J. H. Phillips Mr. Harold Phillips took as his theme the local Citizens' Committee which had as it's aim the rehabiltta• tion of the local boys now Overseas. He hoped that the Ratepayers would elect a council that would co-operate for the benefit of all. He spoke of the connection Mr, Dexter had with the Winglhant Legion, of which he (Mr, Dexter) was a member, and which was a great help to the Citizens' Com- mittee in making contact there. All the other local veterans were mem- , bens of Clinton Legion, The rehabili- tation of our boys was a most import- ant problem, and should be first in the consideration of oar citizens, I -Io mentioned the names of those who 1 wet o connected with the local organ- ization, BLYTH, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 1, 1943.

ENGLAND'S LEND-LEASE FOOD FOR YANKS In case you've been wondering, here's some of the return the Americans are getting for their lend-lease to Great Britain. All these foods—including the familiar shredded wheat—are grown or pro- cessed in England and are turned over to U. S. forces, along with British -made clothing, as payment for some of the goods sent to Britain on a lend-lease basis. FHE WAR WEEK — Lonrmentary on Current bvents Will Non -Belligerent Turkey Throw In Its Lot With Allies? Undcr fascism the historic Dodecanese Island — seized by Italy from Turkey in 1912 — becatne strongholc:s from which Mussolini hoped to control the Eastern Mediterranean, Strate- gically the most important of the group is tiny, rugged Leros with one of the best harbors in the Aegean. There Italians built a naval and air base which threat- ened two ,ital waterways, the Dardanelles 250 niiles to the north and the Suez Canal 450 utiles to the southeast, The fall of Italy made Leros and adjac- ent islands prizes of a race be- tween Nazis and British. For the former they were outposts of Fortress Europe; for the lat- ter they were springboards for a Balkan invasion. British units were rushed from the Near East t, hold them against Germans from near -by Greek islands. Battle off Turkey Much of the ensuing fight was obscured by censorship but last week the outcome became clear. British headquarters in Cairo, which had previously admitted the loss of two islands, announced the fall of Leros. Outnumbered on the ground and blasted by a virtually unopposed Luftwaffe, 3,000 British and 5,000 Italian troops surrendere after five days of fierce battle, Germane promptly launched an air attack on the sole remaining British gar- rison in the Aegean archipelago, on the Greek island of Samos, 4 miles north of Leros and with. In sight of the Turkish coast, A Costly Nazi Effort The Nazi ei.ort — first real Wehrmacht victory in more than tt year—was generally viewed as a desperate and costly attempt to bolster the German position in Southeastern Europe, aimed chiefly at impressing Turkey. In this it appeared to have missed fire. Recent Turkish conferences with the Allies in Cairo, after the Moscow Conference, were fol- lowed last week by a Cabinet meeting in Ankara. From the Turkish capital came various signs that Turkey might end its neutrality. The question of whether Tur- key will throw in its lot with the Allies is one of the vital ques- NEW CHAPLAIN Honorary Brigadier C. G. Ilep- burn, M.C., E.D., wino has been promoted from the rank of Honor- ary Lieut. -Colonel and named Prin- cipal Protestant Chaplain of the Canadian Army. He is rector of All Saints Anglican Church, Ot- tawa. tions in the. war situation today, Turkey would toss substantial v, eight ori the military scales, already tilting sharply against hitler, if it would join the Allies either pa.sively with land and harbors for bases or actively with its well-trained Army and vig- orous Air Force. Inunediate gain for the Allies would be availaoilily of air bases from which Axis key points in the Balkans could be intensively bombarded, possibly by shuttle raids to fields in Southern Italy, Ploesti with its oil treasures is only about 300 miles from Is- tanbul, while Bucharest and So- fia are even less. Turkey's Air Strength More than three years ago Turkey began rebuilding its Air Force, which then numbered only about 300 first-line planes. Now it almost certainly is several times that and many could be_ funneled in swift' by British and Americans to excellent mil- itary airfields. The largest and best of the air- dromes is Ekhischer, about 200 miles southwest of Istanbul, but others are well placed all over the western part of the nation, ir.cluding Istanbul, Ankara, Iz- mir, Adana and Diyarbakir. Turkey's Army Turkey's peacetime Army strength is about 200,000 which could be swiftly raised to 600,000 by general mobilization, with 1,50C,000 more trained or parti- ally trained mer in reserve. The Turkish sold' is repute. tion for toughness and courage is well established and after near- ly two years of intensive Lend - Lease aid froi.a the United States and Britain he is believed by far the best -equipped of all Balkan fighting men. The Army is rich in anti-tank and antiaircraft artillery and in coastal defence guns as well as lighter weapons.

Remarkable agricultural develop- ments have taken place in Canada during the four war years, To pro- vide food for Canada's armed forces and to meet the increased requirements of the people of the United Kingdon has been a major job which has been recognized as an invaluable achievement, • • Canada's accomplishment has been summarized by Ilan, J. 0, Gardiner, Alinlster of Agriculture, as follows: "We have armed do- fonslve and offensive forces rapid- ly approaching a million men. More than 7,000,000 of our people over 16 years of age are producing to maintain and save the lives of as many as possible of the million who will defend 0111• way of life, About one-third of this 7,000,000 aro engaged in producing food on our farms, They are part of that great holy of the men and women who are necessary to maintain the fighting force which Is doing the most important job of the me - meta," There aro many other accom- plishments, however, not so well known, although nonetheless vital to the well-being and offensive power of sailors, soldiers and air- men 1n every theatre of war. As the areas of battle have been ex- tended, the dependence of the armed forces on the farm home front has increased, and this de- pendence extends from clothing and personal egllitllnent to the weapons of war. The war, too, has demonstrated the necessity of a close bond ho- twoon agriculture and industry. In- dustrial production is closely de- pendent on agricultural output and the mechanized agriculture of to- day needs industry as an outlet for its surplus production. The de- mands of war have taxed the in- genuity of Canada's scientists— plant breeders, botanists, entom- ologists, pathologists and others, In developing new crops and in combating the insects and diseases that might destroy them in tho fields or in storage. Front farm to battlefront there is a continuous struggle to safeguard the high quality of the products. * • • The foundation for the multi- plicity of war contributions by Canada's farms is largely seed, therefore It is important that good seed be used. During the progress of the war, many sources of seed have been cut off, but honio pro- duction has been developed with the result that most seed formerly imported now is produced in Can- ada. It Is equal In quality to that which was Imported.' Flax for fibro and flax for oil are crops which have been out- standing in Canada for the great offensively—this is not regarded as a major handicap. Under the vigorous leadership of Kemal Ataturk and his suc- cessors the Army Staff has been kept at a high level of profici- ency and committed td aggressive tactics. Turkey's Harbors Turkey is weak in the naval category, with only one 22,000 - ton battle cruiser as a backbone of forces that include two an- cient 8,000 -ton cruisers, ' eight destroyers and a dozen subma- rines, Its harbors along the Aegean, including one at Izmir, could be an. invaluable jumping-off point 'owever, for naval blows against Greece and the Aegean Islands. Significantly, perhaps, British official sources declined informa- tion on Turkish naval installa- tions. PELANGIO LARDER Borders Chesterville to the east for approximately one and one-half miles.

This year close to 18,000,000 bushels of this seed aro expected from about 2,798,000 acres. All Sorts 01 Sports By Terence Morton A Walker Extraordinary All who are interested in the history of Durham cattle will re- call the name Barclay of Urie or Ury I -Louse, near Stonehaven, but many are perhaps unaware that besides doing much to develop the Shorthorn, the family also pro- duced the greatest pedestrian 'of all times, in Captain Robert Bar- clay-Allardlce, Of the Captain's many extra- ordinary feats of endurance, his walk of 1,000 niiles in as many sue• cesivo hour's on Newmarket heath In 1809 is best known. Now a thousand hours is 41 days, 16 hours, and to walk 24 miles a day for nearly six weeks, with only short snatches of rest, sounds al- most beyond . human endurance, but the Captain made little of it, and the day after finishing the ordeal he was in perfect health, • • • To give a detailed account of the Captain's performances would cover much paper. «'e there - tore list but a few of then at random. In 1806 he walked 100 miles over rough roads in 19 hours. Exclusive of stoppages the time taken was oily 1711. hours, or an average of 53', M.P.H. A year later he left his house at 2 a.m, and walled a considerable dis- tance at attend a cattle sale, where he remnlned on his feet for five horn's. He then walked home, having covered 78 miles of hilly road in 14 hours. REC'LAR FELLERS—Rockabye, Pinhead AND TIAN, IN 16101.

He rose at 5 to ' o grouse shooting and tramped at least thirty utiles in the mountains, IIe dined with his host and in the evening set out for Ury, a distance of GO miles, which he ac- complished in 11 hours without stopping. The Captain was not one to go to bed in the morning, so he attended to Itis duties and that afternoon walked 16 miles to Laurencekirk, where he at- tended a ball and danced most of the night. Returning to Ury by 7 a.m., he spent the day partridge shooting, Supposing he walked only 8 miles when shooting at home, he must have covered at least 130 miles all told, plus being out of b ed for two nights and nearly three days, to make no men- tion of a night's Glancing. • • • Much could be written of the Captain's powers as a middle-dis- tance and distance runner; as a weight lifter, having once lifted LIFE'S LIKE THAT Victor Emmanuel monument. 1155 lbs.; as a boxer and traitor of pugilists. He prepared Alex- ander Mackay to met Simon Byrne for the championship, but alas the fight proved fatal for Mackay, and it Is bellevod—but was never proven—that Barclay was so chagrined at the result that he challenged Byrne and thrashed him, 500,000 From India With Empire Forces Up to last June India's fighting forces had incurred 103,880 casu- alties, Maj. -Gen, G.

"I've got some news for you. I've brought me back a partner, named Dave Bruce, and the inter- est on the mortgage is paid.

There were two rooms in the cabin, and a tiny kitchen, with a Bink and a flow of \voter from n st.rca a above. There was a bunt. in either room, a table and two chairs, a few pathetic touches of a woman's untrained hands, such as the chintz curtains at the windows, two cheap rugs, and several pots of wild flowers blos- oming in tin cans at the win- dows. In the larger room, into which Hooker had staggereu, there was something that bore out the old man's boast of his past, in the shape of a bookcase containing some three dozen tattered books.

How long did the girl intend to stay away? When Hook- er was sobered up, Dave meant to thresh hitters out with hint, and cone to an understanding with Lois.

Britain gives financial help on a Targe scale for India's defence, to the extent of millions of pounds sterling, and bears the cost of India's troops abroad.

Daugh- ter was out with s01110 friends, one of whom works at the sante hunt• tion plant as Daughter and we rather felt that it is the opinion of her friends that we, her par - elite, do not realise how great a responsibility our daughter shoul- ders In the position that she oc- eupies, nor how hard she works. Well, wo do know that Daughter works long hours, that she seems older than her years and that the nervous strain sometimes gets her down, but It is impossible for us who Have no knowledge of the work to realise the extent of her responsibility. In fact Partner and I can hardly believe, even yet, that we have a grown-up family. 13ut we undoubtedly have just that!

For instance yesterday wo nat- urally got on to the subject of the supposedly high wages paid to munition workers and we aro told that a single man Darning $41 a week, actually finds in his pay en- velope, after income tax, Insur- ance, and compulsory savings have been deducted, the princely sum of $24, When you consider that out of that $24 a young man probably has his board and lodging to pay, transportation charges, laundry, clothing, and other personal ex- penses, theft he certainly wouldn't have very much left from itis pay cheque, would lee? • • • Compare a munition worker with a farm hand earning from ten to fifteen dollars a week. There are no deductions from the farm hand's pay envelope, his board and lodg- ing is free, itis washing is probably done by the farmer's wife and since he is right on the spot, there are no transportation charges. Yes, it he be so inclined a farm hand can really save money. 111 fact, I know ono young fellow who banked $160 inside of six months.

The iliscourses in John were lit• levet' two days later, Thursday, April G. Place—A11 the words of our Lord recorded in this lesson were spok• . U1 in Jerusalem, • The First Command "And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning to•' gether, and knowing that lie had unsevered them well, asked hint, \\'hat commandment 13 elle first of all? Jesus answered, Tho first Is, Hear, 0 Israel; the Lord .our Clod, the Lord Is one:. and thou. shalt love the Lord thy God t\•ith all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind and with all thy strength." Our Saviour quotes the intron duction to the Ten Conunandq monis (Deo, f, : 9, 5) as the first; command, not as forming :0110 of the commandments, but as con- taining the principle of 'nil, All true obedience depends on the correct knowledge, .of ,god. None can keep this commaudnients who Is ignorant of His Nature and IIls perfections, Thus ord. Lord begins with the doctrine of the unity of God. We are to love God supreme- ly, more than nil other beings and things, and with all the ardor pos. Bible. The Second Command "The second is this, 'l'liou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There 115 11 o n e other commandment greater than these," Tho love of God includes in itself all other affections but this love of a neigh- bor has over against it a love of self, This self-love monopolizes the Hiatt and the command to to subordinate It to the love of God, and to coordinate it with the love of elan. The Scrlhe'e Reply "And the scribe said unto him, Of a truth, Teacher, thou hast well said that he is one; and there 11 none other but he: and to love him with 1111 the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is much more than all whole burnt -offerings and sacrifices." This reply shows that the scribe was not without spiritual insight, Ho saw that true love and obed- ience were far more important than ceremonialism, Jesus' Answer "And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, ho said unto him, Thou art not far fromthe kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask hint any question." The deep insight which the scribe liad shown revealed he wanted but little to mance him it disciple: But it Is not sufficient to be on the borderland of discipleship; we must leave the world with its pleasures and sins and stop -right over the border and into the h;ing- dom, The New Commandment "A new canuuaudment I give unto you, that ye love one. another. Even as I have loved ,you, that ye also love ono another." Tho measure of Christ's love to els Is to be the measure of our love to one another. "By tills shall all mea know just like snow only that it comes down black."

POP—There Must Be One! that yo aro my disciples, It ye have love ono to another," When the world roes believers loving one itnrother and living in harmony, it knolvs then that they aro the fol. lewey of Christ, Jesus' Promise "If ye keep my commandments, yo shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my lather's coin• rllandilients, and abide In ills love." Obedience is the condition of abid- ing in the S:ivlour's 10ve, We can- not live in the enjoyment of His love If we do things contrary to Ills will. "']'hese things have i spoken un- to you, that my joy may be In you, and that your joy may he made full." Jesus desired that their joy might lie perfected through their steadfast love and obedience, The Command Repeated "Ye are my•frlends if ye do the things which 1 command you." The greatest of all privileges Is to bo known as the friend of Christ but this privilege Is only granted to those who lure obedient to God's cote mond men 1. •"'fills Is my commandment, That yo love one another, as 1 have . loved you." Our love to ono an- other should show itself In the common ways of life—In acts of Nye and kindness.

The- Book Shelf UNDER A LUCKY STAR By Roy Chapman Andrews Dr, Andrews joined the staff of the American Museum of Natural History in 1906 and he retired from that institution in 19.41, ILIs first job was to sweep the floor of one of the laboratories, his last job was Director of the Museum; and his life in between was devoted almost entirely to building the Mlluseur into its present position of world eminence. Prior to the famous Asiatic ex- peditions, Dr, Andrews traveled all over the world, mostly collecting scientific information on t h e whale, The animal had been known for centuries and hunted for gen- erations but 1t, had never been studied systematically, and his re• search'•provlded the basic data on the subject. Tho expeditions into unexplored :Asia occupied in all a period of Mere titan ten years (1916.1928). 'In scope (practically every natural •science was advanced by the An- drews expeditions), in number of personnel and amount of equip- ment, in new discoveries and mu- seum specimens, the Asia project is unequalled In the history of scientific exploration.

Salt On Furnace Fire Saves Fuel The United States Bureau of Mines finds that table salt thrown on a furnace fire reduces soot formation and thus saves fuel. Householders who had found it necessary to hand -clean surfaces of their heaters two or three times a week threw one or two cupfuls of salt on the fire every day' and reported a decided re- duction in soot. ...Salt volatilizes at high tem- peratures and forms n vapor which settles on the surface of tine soot. This lowers tine igni- tion temperature of the soot and enables it to burn away more readily,—New York Times.
