SCHOOL PARADE WHICH PROVES OUTSTANDING FEATURE RECORD CROWDS EXPECTED The twenty-eighth Annual Orms- town Exhibition held under the auspices of the Live Stock Breeders\u2019 Association of the District of Beau- harnois opened last night and all indications pointed to one of the .biggest and best shows in the his- 0 1 | > , | 1 tory of the Association.An estimated crowd of 5,000, the largest for years, was on the grounds, and record breaking attendance for the remainder of the week is expected by the advanced sale of tickets which is larger than it has been for many years.A parade, composed of students of the Ormstown High School, which proceeded from the school down the main street of the town to the Exhibition grounds, started events moving, but the show was officially declared open by Donald E.Black, Chateauguay - Huntingdon, M.P., who was introduced by R.R.Ness, president of the Exhibition.In his opening address, given in French and English, Mr, Black said: \u201cMr.President, ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of the directors of our Show, we give you all a very hearty welcome here tonight.We hope you will all come back and bring your friends, as a great deal of the success of the show depends on your support.We also extend a welcome to all our Exhibitors, Americans and Canadians, and we will do our best to make your week a pleasant one for you.I have the honour to pronounce the Show now open.\u201d Events in the arena during the evening included entertainment by Stanley's Races and Acts, Marie's Animal Circus and Carr Bros., European Clowns, and

Way Into Ormstown Building HAD CUT OUT GLASS When Robert Winter was on his way home shortly after two o'clock Saturday morning, he saw two men making an attempt to enter Os- mond Bros.store.On investigation it was found they had cut out a pane of glass in one of the rear * windows and had evidently tried to pry open the side door with a chisel before being interrupted.Mr.Winter was able to give a good description of the men who were not known locally.The town officials have put on a night watchman during exhibition week, and the store owners are cooperating with them by leaving their premises lighted all night.Mgr.J.Alfred Langlois, bishop of 4 } Valleyfield, will make his visit to St.Malachie\u2019s parish on Saturday _a.- afternoon, when he will administer the sacrament of confirmation to a number of boys and girls.He will also spend Sunday here.The regular monthly meeting of the Ormstown Garden Club met at the home of Mrs.A.W.Swan on Thursday evening, June 3rd.Mrs.Roy Blair gave a very interesting and instructive talk on \u201cVegetables and their Culture.\u201d Questions were asked and answered.Mrs.M.R.Stalker kindly offered her home for the next meeting which is to be on Thursday evening, July 8th.Mr.Patrick Meehan and son, Mr.Howard Meehan of St.Paul's, Minn.motored here and are spending two .\u2018weeks with relatives, and at present are guests of Mr.and

Toronto.In Stanley's Races and Acts two jumping horses, without drivers, thrilled the audience with a clever jumping exhibition.First, they leaped over the hood of a car parked in the middle of the Arena and then \u201cHigh Spot,\u201d the best jumper of the two, gained great applause by jumping over the engine of the car with a man lying on the top of it.Another entertaining feature of this act was a game of Push Ball, played with the largest ball of its kind in the world.Four mounted men, two on each side, endeavoured to drive the ball over their opponents goal line by shoving it with their hands or knocking it with their horses.During the afternoons, Stanley's Races and Acts will feature Roman Chariot Races and Roman Standing Races on the race track.The Carr Bros, famous European Clowns, added a particularly funny note to the proceedings with their balancing stunts, jumping and acrobatics.The highlight of their performance came as they played a violin and guitar to the accompaniment of a large rubber ball, which they bounced with their heads while playing the instruments.They also played the violin and guitar, while one of the brothers stood on his head on top of the other's head.The Three Rosebuds, tap and novelty dancers, gave a smart performance, dancing with their ankles chained to each others\u2019 and then a dancing number with skipping ropes.\u201cMr.Wheeler Man,\u201d part of Maries Animal Circus, amazed the crowd with his bicycle gymnastics, doing all kinds of fancy riding on single and two-wheel bicycles.His fine performance drew great applause from the audience.Another act of the Animal Circus was presented by Marie's trained dogs that showed almost human skill in their performance.They walked tight wires blind-folded, rolled barrels and teetered on a seesaw.The inside of the Arena was gaily decorated with Coronation flags, streamers and crowns.Hunter's Electrical Shop of Huntingdon sup- (Continued on page 5) MR.G.CECIL

By Farmers Were $6582 not $1210 In the last issue of the Gleaner, concerning Grants alloted to farmers in the County of Beauharnois for hail damage during an August 1936 storm, we stated that the amount was $1210.50.Mr.Delpha Sauvé, M.L.A.,, who with the help of Auguste Boyer, M.L.A., had obtained this compensation from the Department of Agriculture has since informed us that the grand total of money received was $6582.50 instead of $1210.- 50.This amount was divided as follows in the County of Beauharnois: in Ste.Cecile parish nine farmers received $565.80; twenty-five received the sum of $2534.60 in the parish of St.Stanislas de Kostka, while $3482.20 was distributed in the parish of St.Louis de Gonzague to forty- nine farmers.A few weeks ago the farmers in St.Louis were compensated by receiving grains for that which was destroyed by the storm.Pioneer of Chateauguay County Dies Mrs.Wm.Ross, Ormstown, Was Prominent in Church Work Mrs.William Ross, a member of one of the pioneer families of Chateauguay County and a native of Ormstown died suddenly Friday afternoon at her home on Main St., East.Mrs.Ross was in her usual health and had been about her house i work all day and during the afternoon had talked with many friends as she did some gardening in front of her home.After preparing supper she complained of feeling ill.Dr.Stalker was called but she passed away almost immediately.The late Mrs.Ross, who before her marriage was Margaret Emma, daughter of James Reid and his wife Jane Weir, was born in Orms- town 70 years ago.In October 1896 she was united in marriage to Wil- liom Ross and the couple resided on the Ross homestead on Chateau- guay River Road until Mr.Ross's death in 1907.Mrs.Ross with her family came to live in Ormstown nm 1922, where she has been ever since.A staunch adherent of St.Paul's United Church, Mrs.Ross was held in high esteem by her many friends and acquaintances to whom the news of her sudden death came with sincere regret.A kindly and pleasant lady, she was closely identified with several organizations that principally devoted their efforts to church work of which she was a keen worker.She was an active member of the Ormstown Ladies\u2019 Curling and Bowling clubs.Her death is deeply lamented by her many friends and relatives.Those surviving are one daughter, (Continued on page 5) The Dundee Women's

the Fort Covington Home Bureau, who gave a very interesting talk on \u201cSlips that Pit\u201d She also exhibited a number of slips which had been made by the Franklin County leaders, telling of the best use of each one.Textiles were discussed and Ladies of Fort Covington Home Bureau Visited Dundee tests given to show how to prove the value of the same when purchasing.She also stressed the fact that more expensive patterns were not necessarily better.She closed her talk with a demonstration of phell finishing\u201d and \u201cbound button oles.\u201d The president expressed the thanks of all present for the talk given.Mrs.8.McGibbon, County Convener of Canadian Industries, then gave a demonstration of a commercial brand of paint cleaner, which was most satisfactory.The members of the Institute then escorted their guests to the dining- room where lunch was served by Mrs.McPhee and Mrs.D.Smellie, The meeting certainly proved a step in advance toward international understanding.Mr.and Mrs.George Sicote, two sons, Steve and Bill, and daughter Mary, were Sunday guests of Mrs.Mary Kazulak and family.Miss Walters and Miss Ruth Laughlin, Montreal, are visitors at

Friends in Final Meeting The closing event of the year Hemmingford, took the form of a social evening, at which the members of the society, along with those of the Knox Y.P.S.entertained the Y.P.S.of Howick.Through the generosity of the Anglican Church of Hemmingford, the meeting took place in the Parish Hall.The programme opened with a sing-song followed by games under the direction of Mr.and Mrs.Rose, Mabel Keddy, Mrs.Percy Barr, and Nes- sie Barr.An advertising competition was followed by a more strenuous competitive game.Next followed a dressmaking game in which the gentlemen were requested to make dresses for their partners, provided only with newspapers and pins.The results were remarkably good, and, to Mr.Cecil Younie, of Howick, the prize was given for the best model

the grand prize winner \u201cCornfed Babies\u201d.a play presented by Huntingdon talent on behalf of St.Andrew's church tennis club.The play related the story of a young married man who secured raises in pay from his boss by telling him that he needed more money for \u201cnew arrivals\u201d in the family.The action speeds up to a riot of fun and comedy when the boss expresses a desire to see the \u201cnew arrivals\u201d In a panic to secure the necessary bables for display when the boss arrives, the young man and his wife secure a large doll stuffed with corn meal to take the place of the younger baby and decide to tell the boss that the older child is away.Their ruse appears to be successful until the corn meal starts falling out of the baby.\u2018There is a happy ending, however, when the boss's sweetheart enters the picture and the announcement of their engagement is made, The cast of the characters was: the young wife: Miss Rucie O'Hare, the husband, F.Hutchins; maid, Lomyra Popeck; the boss, A.Tom- linson and the boss's sweetheart, Florence Demers.By Wilfri The news which has been trickling out from the Imperial Conference at London has been scanty but encouraging.If the private reports which have come through to the Gallery here can be believed, a world movement toward lower tariffs is all ready to be inaugurated.with Messrs.Mackenzie King, Roosevelt and Chamberlin as the leaders.There is no teiling how far-reach- ing such a move might be, on war and peace, as well as on trade and prosperity.A correspondent of mine describes it is much the most hopeful thing that has happened in Europe in the past year.Until recently it appeared as though economic depression was driving certain nations to war, that the fear of internal revolution, due to hard times, was growing so strong among the rulers that a pretext for war would be developed if nothing came along in ordinary course.Those who believe that international trade raises the standard of living of all who take part in it, naturally want to see whether by this indirect means a ghastly conflict cannot be avoided.It is open to argument to what extent the tariffs of the world were imitative and retaliatory, but there is little doubt that most of them were put on in seeming \u2018self-de- fence\u2019.A few years ago there was a tariff race as bitter as the present armaments race.United States put up a layer, and Canada followed suit.Japan and Germany stuck on some more, and even Britain, free trade for three quarters of a century, was induced to place tariff walls around the the country.Now it is hoped to start a similar downward movement.If two or three of the principal trading nations can be induced to admit foreign goods freely, then the other nations will have less incentive to maintain high tariff walls.It is hoped they will co-operate.The vested interests in all countries which have been permitted by tariff walls to build up industries and charge higher prices than they could have done otherwise will naturally put up a tough defence.But if the leaders can be persuaded that a general tariff disarmement is in the interests of the world, they may be able to overcome this, Some American writers have not hesitated to lay the principal blame for post-war tariff madness on the inexperience of the United States.| The Week at Ottawa Lower Tariffs Hinted at Imperial Conference at London Will Have Far-Reaching Effects on War, Peace and Trade 9 d Eggleston During the long period when Britain was the chief creditor nation of the world, she had a free trade system, and debtor countries could freely pay their interest and principal in the form of goods.The United States went into the war a debtor country, and a high- tariff country.She came out of the war the world's principal creditor, but the tariffs were still there.In the post-war decade, the debtors of the United States attempted to pay back their obligations in goods.They were met by high tariff walls.It is seriously argued that the drainage of gold from the rest of the world to the United States, in a secondary attempt to meet these obligations, was a prime factor in bringing about the depression of 1929.Certainly it threw the world \u201coff the gold standard.\u201d It is not even clear that the United States have learned this lesson yet\u2014that payment for goods exported must be by goods imported.We have quite recently seen some of their leaders gravely concerned about the volume of sterile gold which is piling up in their vaults.But debtor countries are still finding much of the old difficulty in paying their debts in the United States in any other way.There is still a high tariff there, although President Roosevelt's trea- ty-making powers have cut it down substantially.Now we hear of a serious effort to go further.If the U.S.will take another cent a pound off Canadian cattle, and admit codfish more freely, make perhaps two or three other major concessions, then Canada will agree to Britain varying the terms of the Ottawa agreements, and letting U.8.produce enter the Mother Country without the present tariff obstacles.There would be mutual reductions on British goods.In some such way the tri-partite walls will come down.Federal Liberals are agitated by but not surprised at Premier Hepburn's declaration of independence in Toronto.To begin with, they point out tha tPremier Hepburn could hardly desert the King administration because he never was a cordial supporter of that Ministry.They recall the fact that Premier Hepburn quite deliberately absented himself from the last Dominion- Provincial Conference here, and that he was the only provincial Premier who did not attend.Huntingdon Play Is Awarded Grand Prize In Skating Rink Amateur Competition Local Entrants Capture Majority of Awards But Contestants From All Over District Were Favoured by Judges COMMUNITY SINGING CONDUCTED After the first intermission, a song entitled, \u201cLittle Old Lady\" was sung by Miss Thora McWhinnie, and Cyril McWhinnie with the Little Old Lady impersonations by Miss Ruth Miller.This was followed by piano selections by John Paul Caza and a news reel of pictures taken of the 1919 Peace Day celebration and the 1925 Centenary celebration held in Huntingdon.An explanatory talk on the pictures and information about the \u201cOld Home Week\u201d to be held in Hunt- ingdon in August was given by Adam L.Sellar.A Jewish Comedy, featuring Mrs.Kenneth Cairns, Percy Barr and F.A.Sweet of Hemmingford was the last number on the program before the second intermission.This play had to do with a young lady who came all the way from Texas to Montreal to borrow money on what she considered a real money making scheme.Her efforts to extract the money from her Jewish friend proved difficult but amusing.A novelty dance featuring Miss R.Miller, E.Montpetit and Messrs, A.Warden and R.Laberge re-open- ed the program.The principals in this were dressed as sailors and presented a smart naval tap dancing routine.Misses Rachel and Enid Hannah were then heard in a group of two songs, the last one dedicated to Huntingdon County and a Dewitt- ville play \u201cBill Perkin's Proposin\u2019 Day\" concluded the program.Bill Perkins was a farmer who had decided that it was time he was married.First he asked his neighbor's daughter and when she refused him he asked her widowed mother.Mac Ruddock played the part of Bill Perkins, and Miss M.Ritchie that of the widow.Romantic interest was supplied by the daughter, Miss Cameron and H.Cassidy.As an added attraction community singing was led by Messrs.A.Tomlinson, S.Popeck and Dr.JE.Caza.Accompaniment for this was played by J.Montgomery, Hun- tingdon.Candy was sold during the intermission by the young people of St.Andrew's Presbyterian church.Miss Evelyn Purcell of Hunting- don was the accompanist for the evening.The judges were Miss G.Demers, Mrs.E.M.Wood and 1, H.Bowden, and the masters of ceremonies, M.Hunter and F.Hutchins.The drawing for the Sanacell Blanket raffled by the Badminton Club took place and Miss R.Walsh of Huntingdon was the lucky winner.It was donated by A.E.Hunter.Huntingdon Minister Returns To Pulpit After being absent from the United Church, Huntingdon, for 12 Sundays the Rev.J.H.Miller, D.D., returned to his pulpit Sunday morning.Rev.J.B.Maclean, D.D., Minister of St.Andrew's Church was away attending an Assembly Conference at Ottawa, consequently a large part of the congregation of Presbyterian and United Church members were present to hear Rev.MR.NELSON WHITE Member of the Parade (Committee for Huntingdon Old Home Week, who will contribute much towards the excellence of some of the parade floats.Huntingdon Wins Second League Game Defeated Malone Chiefs 6-4 In Hard Fought Pitching Duel The Huntingdon baseball team won its second game in the Canad- lan-American league warfare at Malone, on Sunday, when they walloped the Malone Chiefs to the tune of 6-4, The game proved to be a pitcher's battle most of the way, with sterling performances being turned in by both moundsmen.Lefty Marlow, 15-year-old Malone hurler, thrilled the 300 hundred fans present by striking out 15, while Zachar had plenty on the ball and held the Chiefs powerless most of the way.Zachar, small but cool, was steady in the pinches and pulled himself out of holes by coolness under pressure.Errors played a big part in the Chief's loss, They committed seven and collected five hits, while Hun- tingdon made six errors and five hits.Cromp and Shea were the slug- ers for Malone, each getting two aggers, while Elder, Taylor and Monique did most of the willow work for the locals.For Huntingdon, McCabe and Kirby replaced O'Connor in right field and McCoy substituted for Hunter in left field.Malone scored three runs in the third inning and one in the sixth, The third and fourth innings were the big ones for Huntingdon

absence of several months due to illness, Heavy Loss Suffered When Aubrey Creamery Destroyed Tuesday morning, at Dundee, the Aubrey Creamery formerly owned by J.D.Currie and for the past two months operated by Mr.Geo.Sutton was the prey to flames of unknown origin which razed the whole structure of the 67 year old building, leaving nothing of what was once a fine creamery but a mass of smoking and twisted debris.Mr.Sutton with his helper, Lionel Latreille, were working the evening previous packing butter which was to be shipped the following morning to Montreal.About midnight Mr.Button drove his helper home, a distance of about 3 miles.However, he returned in a short time and then went to bed at his hoarding house at Mr.J.D.Currie's about 1230 AM.About 1.30 AM, an hour later.Mr.H.A.Millar whose residence is only a few rods distant from the factory was awakened by the noise of flames crackling.Looking out of the window he saw the south end of the factory which contained the ice house énveloped in flames, Mr.Millar dressed and went out to summon help at Mr.Lyle Cur- rie\u2019s.\u2018Together they aroused Mr.Sutton who quickly came to the scene of the fire.However, by this time, the fire had gained considerable headway and it was impossible to do much to check it.Several others by this time were on hand to offer assistance but to no avail, The fire spread rapidly and soon the whole place was a blazing inferno in which no one dared enter.Luckily the wind was not blowing in the direction of Mr.Millar's house or the fire might have spread to that also.The fire lasted until after 3 o'clock but continued smoking all the next day.The sawdust in the ice house seemed to burn very slowly.Mr.Sutton after taking over the Creamery last winter had spent considerable time and money in renovating the equipment, so his loss is considerable.The greatest loss however was 80 boxes of butter containing about 4000 lbs whidh was entirely destroyed.Of the equipment the only thing which was not destroyed was the steam boiler which had been filled ready for morning use.Only the day before Mr.Sutton had purchased 2000 ft.of matched spruce and stored it in the ice house preparatory to building a curing room for cheese as he intended installing cheese making equipment this week and making both butter and cheese.Mr.Sutton personally estimated his loss at $2500.00.There was no insurance carried on either the building or contents, so the blow to Mr.Sutton is a severe one.Since opening for business his patronage had increased till recently he was weighing in around 10,000 lbs.of ( om page 8) Bishop Of Diocese Visits Huntingdon One Hundred and Forty-one Children Confirmed On Saturday SEVENTY-SEVEN BOYS Visits Hinchinbrooke For Confirmation Services Sunday Parishioners of 8t.Joseph's Church, Huntingdon, had the honor of having in their midst on Saturday and Sunday the bishop of the diocese, His Lordship Mgr.Alfred Langlois.This pastoral visit, which is made by the bishop every three years in all churches of the dioceses saw more than 141 children receive the Sacrament of Confirmation on Saturday.Of those confirmed by His Lordship, 77 were boys.Arriving in Huntingdon early Saturday afternoon Mgr.Langlois im- medintely proceeded to administer the Sacrament of Confirmation and then visited the cemetery.The sermon in both French and English was by Father Stanislas, Franciscan, from Chateauguay Basin.In his remarks Father Stanislas reminded cveryone that it was a duty to honor and respect the dead.The afternoon ceremony came to a close with the singing of the Ll- bern by the Choir of the Parish.Sunday morning a large congregation was present for the Low Mass which was conducted by the bishop.The singing on this occasion was by the choir of St.Joseph's School and the Convent.At the solemn High Mass at 9.30 a.m.led by the vicar of the parish, Father John Leduc, the bishop, was present at the Throne.After High Mass and before the benediction of the Blessed Bacra- ment, Mgr.Langlois addressed the gathering.He added a few special congratulatory remarks to the different choirs upon their rendition of the musical programme of the day.On his closing remarks His Lordship congratulated the parish priest, Father Pigeon, upon his moral and Intellectual administration of the parish.The singing at the High Mass was done by the men's choir, 8t.Joseph's School and the Convent choir.They sang the Mass of the Angel's in Gregorian style.After the benediction, His Lordship was escorted to the Rectory by (Continued on page 4) Good

to see 50 many capable juvenile acts presented.The training the children received was largely due to the untiring efforts of Miss Evelyn Purcell and Miss H.Gnaedinger.While these ladies trained the children, a word of praise must be reserved for the proud parents who saw to it that the contestants appeared in appropriate costume and stage settings.The amateur concert will undoubtedly do much good for the participants, for it will help them t0 overcome stage fright, which will be invaluable to them in years to come.If we were to ask some of the parents to appear before an audience, they would fuss and fume for a week before, and for days after.The people who cannot appear in public and give expression to their thoughts are to be pitied, and what is more their community suffers on that account.These people may have good ideas but because they lack the faculty for public expression their ideas are lost.In England, boys and girls for generations back have been taught singing in the schools, consequently today when you meet a number of folks born in England you will find many talented ones among them.Though the Huntingdon Skating Rink Association may have netted little from the three contests, it has performed a valuable service for many of our young people.The contest has not only aided the youth, but the dramatic skits presented by the adults proved that we have many people in whom latent talent may be found.Huntingdon County could feel perfectly justified in entering future Dramatic Festivals, as was done this year for music, if this talent were developed.The day of amateur entertainment is fast being restored.The radio and movie have not permanently displaced such entertainment.Destruction of Flowers He season of the wild flower is here and once again Canadian woods and fields are covered with beautiful plants and flowers.Old mother nature is particularly extravagant with her beauty in this country but she expects us to protect her gifts after she has bestowed them.Just as soon as the first wild flowers begin to appear many people think it is their privilege to g0 Out and gather is many of these as they want.Without considering the havoc they are creating in a beautiful scene or the future life of the plants they are picking, these florescent vagabonds go blithely on their way.The reckless plucking of wild flowers has already caused the disappearance of some of the finest plants of the woods through the damage caused by removing with the blooms, all the foliage which is needed to mature the roots.Some flowers should never be gathered freely, because the blooms cannot be picked without removing all the foliage on which depends the maturing of the bulbous root for the following season's crop.\u201d Other species may be picked freely so long as the plant body is not disturbed.Before wild flowers are gathered, one should have sufficient knowledge about them to know which varieties can be picked and the proper way to pick them.\u201c The plucking of wild flowers should be done in & sane and thoughtful manner with due regard for the future.Enough flowers should always be kept to form seeds and no wild plant should ever be picked up by the roots.Instead of rushing for a gun every time they see an unusual animal or bird, the youth of Canada now take pleasure in protecting strange feathered or furry creatures.The same attitude must be adopted towards wild plant life.World Trade and Civilization «\u201c HE peoples of the world are concerned primarily with happiness; with getting the most out of their daily lives.To insure happiness, there must be peace, security and bodily comfort, to which should be added the maximum of the comforts and luxuries of life that nature and the development of science through the instrumentality of the most effective world economy, make possible.Our yardstick is the \u201cstandard of living.\u201d To the extent that by intelligent planning we expend the productivity of each country, to that extent do we encourage the creation of wealth and improve the standard of living of that particular country.\u201d As we promote by co-operation of all countries the exchange of the wealth in the world as & whole, we still further enhance the prosperity of the peoples of all countries.We spread throughout the world the natural resources and capitalize the individual characteristics of all peoples.That is foreign trade.But we do more than simply advance the standard of living.To an important degree, we promote the other essential attributes of human hap- piness\u2014pesce and security.I say this because it seems clear to me that political disturbances within any country or political differences between nomic necessity, such as & demand for a higher standard of living, or for a broader opportunity to capitalize the resources of the nation and the ambitions of its people.If this be true, the more we stimulate industry within each country, and between all countries, the less becomes the urge for conflict and the greater becomes the probability of peace and security.There is, therefore, & direct relatienship between world trade and industry, on the one hand, and world civilization on the other.As we promote the former, we advance the latter.\u201d The foregoing are the remarks of the president of General Motors, Alfred P.Sloan, Jr.There is so much truth in the statement that one can not help but think Anthony Eden, English Foreign Secretary, feels the same way about conditions.He is continually endeavouring to bring about peace in Europe.Strife arose between Russia and Britain, and it was quickly settled; as flares may blow in France, they are quickly subdued; Germany, at times, looks as though she would like a quarrel, but Germany, and Britain, realize they ought to be bosom friends and commercial traders with one another.Italy, with its strong-armed leader Mussolini, would like to defy the world, and to a certain degree has done so, but only at the expense of her youthful blood and financial resources.The diplomacy of governmental officials in Britain is a great binding link throughout the world for peace, which means \u201cWorld Trade and World Civilization.\u201d Popularity of the Telephone HE use of the telephone in this area is extensive, perhaps more generally used than in any other like territory in the Dominion.Here we have 975 subscribers on the Huntingdon Bell Telephone exchange catering to a population of approximately 7,175 pepole.World-wide telephone statistics compiled as of January 1, 1936, show that an annual average of 210.8 telephone conversdtions were held in Canada for every man, woman and child in this country.The United States, with a comparable figure of 197.0, was in second place.Denmark, with 173.9 per capita calls, and Sweden with 152.2, followed.Canada\u2019s position among the countries of the world in the matter of telephone development in the larger centres continues to be impressive, With 18.78 telephones per 100 population in communities of 50,000 and more, this Dominion ranks sixth in the list.The United States is fifth with a figure of 19.32.Sweden is the leader in this regard, followed by Switzerland, Norway, and Denmark, in that order.In less peopled areas, Canada ranks in fourth place, this world-wide survey reveals, Canada, it is shown, has 7.28 telephones in operation per 100 population in communities of less than 50.000 persons.Next to the leadership of the United States with 9.87, there follow New Zealand with 9.84 and Sweden with 7.56.Fifth, sixth, and seventh positions are taken by Denmark, Switzerland, and Australia, respectively.Om the basis of telephone development throughout the whole population, Canada with 10.99 telephones per one hundred people is second only to the United States with a comparable figure of 13.69 telephones.Denmark is third with 10.64; New Zealand fourth with 10.59 and Sweden fifth with 10.28.Of telephones in service per 100 population among large cities of the world, Vancouver is fourth, Toronto eleventh and Montreal eighteenth in the list.These latest statistics make it clear that Canadians continue, as they have done over a long period, to place a very high value upon their telephone services.This fact is emphasized in their continuing to be the world's leaders in telephone usage.Ideas For Better Business ERHAPS one of the greatest mistakes most of us make, is that of forming the habit of thinking small thoughts.We lack faith, We forget that the supply of good is unlimited.Those capable of making effective use of ideas are the ones who usually get them.You may have an old established business, but perhaps it is not better or larger than it was years ago.Such a business tells in an unspoken manner that its head is one of small thought and short of constructive ideas.Success comes to people who, not necessarily have wealth at the start, but have ideas and ability to put ideas into operation.You must be able to manage, to net a profit.In place of grouching and blaming conditions one should have greater faith in the future.You would feel better as an individual and the country would sooner become prosperous.Constructive thoughts and ideas are indeed magnets.They attract the kind of people, ideas, orders, promotions, honors and rewards that rightfully belong to them.It is the thinker of big thoughts who creates a big business.No others can accomplish that result.Think these few lines over and place them first upon yourself and your line of business and determine whether you personally are doing all that you might.Have your ideas been the keystone of success or have you still to thing up a good idea?Ormstown Exhibition pioneers thought out constructive ideas that would make Ormstown the seat of a great livestock exhibition.They are to be congratulated upon their forethought.Many merchants in the Chateauguay Valley started out in a very small way, and today have valuable businesses and substantial financial reserves.Others are merely marking time, Whistling is Not Applauding all like to see people enjoy themselves\u2014 especially when their enjoyment springs from appreciation of entertaining effort put forth by others.In the O\u2019Oonnor Theatre, audiences attending the amateur contests were enclined to be & bit rude.Too many people talked during certain acts that perhaps did not appeal to them.This was annoying to the entertainers and to the people sitting near who wished to listen.Applause, in the form of boisterous cheering and whistling is not in good taste.That type of applause belongs to the baseball diamond and the hockey arena\u2014not to theatres.News Bits ENJOY PHONE JOKE A manufacturer of pyjamas in New York named Katz, seeing an opportunity for a little extra publicity, gave his telephone operator instructions to say \u201cAre you calling Katz pyjamas?\u201d when answering calls.Soon after the custom was started, this response struck a caller's funny bone and he told a couple of his friends, who called up the Katz factory just to hear the operator's ludicrous question, These friends told their friends and by the next day several emergency operators had to be put on duty to answer callers who wanted to hear the same silly question.The third day the calls totalled 3.000.Then, for fear the thing should get into the papers and become epidemic, the head of the firm gave orders for telephone operators to say \u201cAre you calling Mr.Katz?\" That cut the fun off short.WOMAN GOLD MINER When the price of gold went up, making the mining of it more profitable, Mrs.Effie Myers, a former schoo! teacher, with a ten-year-old daughter and sick husband to support, obtained a four-year lease on a famous old Santa Rita mine in the Victor, Colorado, district, which had made fortunes for three owners previously before it was abandoned.Mrs.Mvers has been operating this mine all alone.She runs the engine hoist as well as going down into the mine in the big barrel which takes out the ore.The ore in which she is working now is returning $200 a ton.She would have no difficulty in disposing of her lease at a big profit but instead she is planning to hire a crew of men as soon as she has a surplus large enough to pay them wages, and will then take out gold on a bigger scale, CAR SHOWS POWER His car stalling in a slippery spot, Oliver H.Stetler.farmer near Harper.Kan., set it in low gear and with the aid of a neighbor began pushing it out of the mud.When the wheels struck solid ground it started off under its own power heading straight for a ditch.The two men thought the ditch would stop it.but they were mistaken.The car hurdled the ditch, tore through a fence and started off across the field with Hostetler pursuing it.Before they caught up with it the runaway car had crashed through two hog fences and two barbed wire fences in its wild race of about a quarter of a mile, finally dashing down into a ravine where a tree stopped it.TRACE JAIL-FOOT If Edward Thomas, 26, had not had such a big foot, he might not have appeared at London sessions, and then have gone to prison for 12 months with hard labor.But a foot-print 1314 inches in length was foo good a clue for the police, and led them infallibly to Thomas, who stands seven feet in height.In all London, only one footsize to beat that which has failed Thomas for house-breaking is reported.One firm regularly ships 17-inch boots to a customer at Shanghai! TOMB IN PERIL The most sacred building in Christendom, the ancient Church of the Holy Sepulchre, over the burial place of Christ in Jerusalem, is in danger of collapse.Ominous cracks in the structure of the cupola were made worse by the recent earthquake in Palestine, and fears are now felt for its safety.Signor Luigi Marangoni, an Italian architect, has sailed for Palestine to examine the fabric.LIGHTNING IN WELL During a recent thunderstorm lightning struck a tree on the farm of Walter N.Coble, Crane, Mo.The tree stands over a well 96 feet deep and the bolt of lightning followed the tree down into this well.Next morning Coble found no water in the well.Probing around with a drillers\u2019 bit, he discovered a cavern under the well, the roof of which apparently had been battered in by the lightning.Chronicled Specially Written For The Huntingdon Gleaner BROTHER STARTED IT A news item from Belgrade, Serbia, that Borgen Princip had been elected secretary of the local porters\u2019 union had little significance until the information was added he was the brother of Gavarilo Princip, who assassinated the Austrian Arch-Duke Ferdinand and his wife at Sarajevo, in June, 1914, the spark which started the World War.For some reason Gavarilo Princip was not executed, the usual fate of murderers there, He was imprisoned and died .there four years later shortly before the Armistice was signed.PATIENTS BOARD OUT A new policy in the treatment of patients at mental hospitals in Ontario, may revolutionize the care of such unfortunates.Farm homes are selected in the province where certain curable patients are \u201cboarded out.\u201d Here under direction of members of the hospital staff, recovery is hastened because of the quiet and contentment to be had there as compared with the facilities of the hospital usually too crowded.The cost of caring for mental patients not only is reduced by this plan but families taking them find a mueh- needed income from this source.WIFE CRAMPS STYLE As a member of a hook-and-lad- der unit in Chicago's fire department, Alexander Grim sometimes is called on to rescue women in their night clothes from top floors of burning houses.Telling his wife about these adventures made her uneasy and she began going to fires with him to see her husband took no liberties except as were required of him as a rescuer.This hampered Grim\u2019's work, but his remonstrances failed to keep his wife at home.The trouble was settled when Judge Rudolph Desort issued an injunction forbidding Mrs.Grim to go to fires at which her husband was on duty with his hook-and-ladder company.METEOR CRASH In Salem, Mass.Mrs.Harold Eldridge, hearing a strange roar at night, that increased and ended in a crash nearby, rushed to her door and a saw a blue light emerge from a hole in her yard.Next morning she went out to solve the mystery and dug from the hole a round stone, still warm, that weighed nine pounds.It was porous, having a strongly sulphurous odor and has since been identified as a meteorite.MULE TRADERS TRICKY If a bill before the Arkansas legislature becomes law, the rejuvenation of aging mules will be forbidden.Traders have developed a variety of tricks such as filing an old mule\u2019s teeth, doping them, dyeing their gray hairs, and covering up blemishes in a variety of ways to make the animals seem several years younger.Just the old time horse trader tricks applied to mules which are worth real money again.THREE WOMEN CARED From the 14th floor of a New York skyscraper, a man jumped to his death recently.The suicide left a note declaring, among other things, he was homeless, alone in the world, that no one cared for him.After his body was placed in the morgue awaiting burial, three women turned up to claim it.Kidney Acids Rob Your Rest Many people never seem to get a good night's rest.They turn and toss\u2014lie awake and count sheep.Often they blame it on \u201cnerves\u201d when it may be their kidneys.Healthy kidneys filter poisons from the blood.If they are faulty and fail, poisons stay in the system and sleeplessness, headache, backache often follow.If you don't sleep well, try Dodd's Kidney Pills\u2014for half a century the favorite remedy.103 Dodd 'sKidneyPills | BRIDGE Quebec P.J.O'CONNOR, HW.Huntingéen A HOGG'S SUPPLEMENTARY MINERALS (lodized) Balanced to best meet the Mineral needs of Live Stock in six varieties.Cattle - Hog - Horses - Sheep - Poultry - Foxes CONCENTRATED - ECONOMICAL - EFFECTIVE Write for particulars THE W.L.HOGG CORPORATION Limited, Feed Specialists for 44 years.2965 Notre Dame St.East, Montreal \u2014 REPRESENTATIVES \u2014 0.MORGAN, B.8.A,, Supervisor BRAND \u2014 Huntingdon.WALDIE, A.SAVARD, Hun!

Wednesday, June 9th, 1937 Quebec Dislikes Colonist Plan Fears Farmers\u2019 Opposition Tremblay Sees Settlement on Nearby Land as Unfair to Established Families\u2014Still Hopes For Federal Cash e Possibilities of encouragement from provincial sources of a project whereby some 500 families now in Montreal on relief would be placed on abandoned farms close to Montreal are dim.according to Hon.William Tremblay.The project in question was one which was placed before the Brien Unemployment Committee this week.Mr.Tremblay said that the farmers around Montreal have been established there for many, many years, for generations in most instances, and were working under great difficulties at the present time, and seeking to gain as much of the Montreal market as possible.To give colonists $2,000 each to set them up on adjoining farms and thereby enable them to enter into competition with the old-establish- ed farmers would hardly be fair, said the Minister, who remarked that he had informally discussed the matter with Albert Rioux, deputy Minister of Agriculture, and JE.Laforce, deputy Minister of Colonization.Colonization to his mind, said Mr.Tremblay, meant breaking new ground, and not using public funds to establish farmers in competition with those already established, and anxious to secure their logical mar- et.The Minister of Labor intimated that he had not yet despaired of securing a reversal of the -decision which the federal Government had given to the effect that only $1,400,- 000 would be allotted to the province of Quebec this year for relief works.He said he had taken the matter up again with Hon.Norman Rogers, federal Minister of Labor, and expected to receive an answer within a short time.He hoped it would be possible to obtain a larger grant for public works in this province, since that would mean so much more progress in doing away with the \u201cdole,\u201d and eliminating this form of relief was his ultimate aim.The Minister was asked as to his interview with the city authorities the previous day, and said he would first have to lay his information before the Cabinet.He said that the necessity of eliminating from the \u201cdole\u201d lists all tryse who had no right to be there had been emphasized.Nearly $12,000,000 will be spent this year by the Quebec Government mainly for the purpose of bringing colonization settlers closer to civilization.Since 1923 colonization work had proceeded farm beyond highway construction with the result that many settlements were left in the Yilderness, isolated from civiliza- on.The present Government, however, will open 1,800 miles of roads with no fewer than 103 bridges and will construct 256 schools this year.To obtain help from the Government, the settler must show his sincerity and make an effort to help himself.No help would be forthcoming for those who felt the Government should feed them.ee 6 \"ul ull ra It Happened Here \u201cBy The Peerless Peeper\u201d TO A FAIR ADMIRER OF THE FORMER SNOOPER'S COLUMN \u201cNo Dear One, The Snooper is not back, not any farther back than the back seat of the car he usually rides in.Speaking of back seats and one armed drivers, reminds us of the speaker who addressed quite a large gathering in our town last year.He was talking about modern youth and mentioning the fact that the boys were able to drive their cars with one hand when out with their best girl.This remark caused quite a laughter from four or five \u201cOld Boys\u201d who were sitting in the Bald Headed row.Turning to them and pointing at them, the speaker said, \u201cWell, boys, you sure can laugh at Modern Youth, for in your Hey Days, you took your sweetheart out in the old buggy.turned up some quiet country road, threw the lines over the dash and drove with no hands.\u201d BRICKS AND BOUQUETS Since writing in last week's paper, all kinds of bricks and very few bouquets have been thrown at this corner.In fact they have kidded the Snooper so much that we have decided to change the Nom-de- Plume from \u201cBy The Snooperless Snooper\u201d to \u201cBy The Peerless Peeper\u201d.We offer our apologies again\u2019 to the Snooper and sincerely regret that we have caused him so much dodging, yes, we mean dodging in and out of alleyways to avoid the bricks which were being slung around by the \u201cFair Mechanics.\u201d NEW ICE CREAM BAR CREATED Seemingly our first article created quite a fad and has produced a New Ice Cream Bar known as \u201cThe Moonshine Bar\u201d.The sales have exceeded the output by trillions and our local ice cream dealers have been run ragged waiting on the parched customers.They claim it has been the greatest boom since the days of the \u201cKlondike Kisses\u201d.We claim that the credit for this New Ice Cream Bar should go to this corner but our friends the \u201cFair Mechanics\u201d insist that they are the ones responsible for its creation, DRY CLEANING Do not send your clothes to Montreal to be

away faster than anything else.Yet a simple beauty treatment for the hands shows results so quickly that there's really no reason for letting your hands show you up.Try to keep a jar of hand cream or lotion where you can use it every time you have your hands in water, and every time you come in out of the cold.If gloves are not feshly cleaned, give the hands a thorough cleansing when they come off, and follow with a good creaming.A hand cream that absorbs quickly is the best.To soften roughened hands and keep the skin supple and free from the lines that come from dryness, regular beauty treatment should be repeated every two or three days.Massage the hands, using your hand cream and working down each finger toward the tip.and upward across the backs of the hands and well across the wrists.Leave an excess film of the cream over hands and nails and slip on loose cotton gloves\u2014it's the soaking up of the emollients by thirsty hands and nails that does the real work.With the current interest in the coat and dress ensemble, dress prints are styled to go with the silk coat.Often the coat is one of the new monotone ribbed silks, such as silk bengaline.silk surah, silk twill or silk gabardine.1937 companion prints in silk use large and small sizes of the same pattern.or two sizes of the pattern with the colors in reverse treatment.Very new- looking are heavy navy or black silk shantungs printed in small monotone designs, which may be used for either coats or dresses.* .- As coffee loses its strength when exposed to air, it should be kept tightly covered, especially after it has been ground.When coffee has lost its flavor from exposure to the air, it can be improved by heating the dry coffee in the oven, taking care, of course, not to let it brown.* * - + Most infectious ills are spread by contact, directly or indirectly, between humans.If the chain of contact is broken, the dangers of infection are reduced.Studies of the washing of dishes used by troops and inmates of institutions show that the incidence of influen- za may be reduced two-thirds or | more through sterilization of eating utensils, Such sterilization is also helpful in the home.Every woman needs a change of lipstick with the donning of heavier clothes and darker colors.A new lipstick has some of the exciting effect of a new bonnet .and it's so good for a \u201cpick-me-up\u201d

cooperation with the Provincial Departments of Agriculture, distributes cardboard schedules to farmers for the purpose of collecting statistics of acreages under crop and the numbers of live stock and poultry on farms.An innovation of 1931 extended this survey to cover the breeding and marketing intentions with regard to live stock.In all of the provinces, except Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, Alberta and British Columbia, these schedules are distributed to the farmers through the rural school teachers.In these four provinces, the cards are mailed direct to the farmers.The acreage of field crops, in particular, are the real foundation of the scheme of agricultural production statistics.Only slightly less important in the national planning is the necessity of having correct knowledge of the numbers of live stock on farms.The accuracy of our compildtions in both these classes is largely dependent upon obtaining completed cards from a fair sample of the total number of Canadian farms, Farmers are urged to fill in and return these cards for their own benefit.membered always.Beautiful drives over new highways lead out from Lake Placid in every direction.The 15-mile boat ride around
