Maternity Hospital\u2014Further Discussion to Take Place Here Thursday Evening Friday afternoon, a meeting of \u2018the Governors of Barrie Memorial Hospital, Ormstown, was held in the \u201cTown Hall, Ormstown, when the principal discussion was about hospital requirements, The meeting \u2018was well attended when Doctors -Stalker and Quintin voiced their opinions on the situation as it \u2018stands today, in regards to increased hospitalization in order to help alleviate the problem of ser- \u2018vice to be accorded by the physicians.\u2018Mr.R.E.Walsh, chairman of the Board of Governors, of Barrie Ma.\u2018morial Hospital, stated that several ideas for extending hospital facil.\u2018ities had been given consideration, but as yet nothing definite had been arrived at.The requirements nffght be met through creating a place where convalescent patients might be housed, an extension add.-ed to the present Barrie Meni jal \u201cHospital, or a hospital built of suf- fictent size to provide at least 50 Against any new building project today is the problem of securing the materials, let alone the high cost of labour.Then again if a 50-bed hospital was to be settled ubon, §t would take a great deal of time and \u201cstudy in order to know that when the hospital is built, it will serve its intended purpose to the fullest ex- \u2018tent.The idea of having a so-term- ed \u201cWestern Division\u201d of the Barrie Memorial Hospital, in Huntingdon, was felt would help relieve the burden at Ormstown to some ex- \u2018tent; yet such a division would have its disadvantages.The meeting felt that such a division could \u2018not be managed from Ormstown to the general satisfaction of all, and that it would be much better to lend \u2018their moral support to the people of Huntingdon to bring about the creating of a Maternity Hospital or such in Huntingdon.What Barrie Memorial Hospital had learned \u2018from other hospitals, and through experience, they would gladly extend to Huntingdon.Dr.Quintin stated that in 1942, 45 maternity cases had been cared for at Ormstown, that originated in the western half of the Chateau- guay Valley.At the present time the Barrie Memorial Hospital is admitting close to 50 patients a month, and in the month of October, the number admitted was sixty-two.If a house in Huntingdon could be acquired and adapted to taking care of maternity cases, it would certainly help relieve the hospitalization problem throughout the Chateauguay Valley and at the same time make it a possibility for the medical profession to cope with the situation, Today, the doctors are fewer in number, and the prospects are that their number will be further reduced due to the calls of the army for medical men.The great shortage :{ domestic help in our rural homes meuns that when sickness comes to the home, the patients immediately seek admittance to a hospital, particularly so for maternity cases.A home with several bedrooms and a room set apart and suitably equipped as a case room, would go a long way towards filling the immediute needs, was the general impression of those who have given thought and study to the situation.On Thursday evening, Dec.3, a meeting is to be held in the Hunt- ingdon County Building, when a number of specially interested citizens will be present and hear what the local doctors have to say on this subject.Drs.Stalker and Quintin, Messrs.R.E.Walsh, W.G.McGerrigle and several others from Ormstown, have intimated they will be present at this meeting and lend what support they can towards bringing about some sort of augmented hospital service for the Chateauguay Valley.The Governors of the Barrie Memorial Hospital are heart and soul behind any movement that can bring about a further improvement toward hospitalization, thereby lending co-operative assistance to the medical practicioners who are over taxed in caring for the health and needs of our populace.The assistance that can be had from the Governors of Barrie Memorial Hospital, will be of inestimable value to the people in Huntingdon if they decide to go ahead on their own and do something so essential at this moment, in the way of creating a maternity hospital.Deposits Exceeding a Billion And Assets at an All-time High Feature Bank Montreal Report Assets of $1,175,319,000 Include $683,835,000 of Government and Other Bonds Reflecting Co-operation in Financing National War Effort Showing characteristic strength in all departments, the Bank of Montreal's annual statement, just released, marks a record in the institution\u2019s 125-year career, with assets at the new high figure ot $1,175,000,000 and deposits exceeding, for the first time, the billion dollar mark.Profits show some reduction compared with those of a year ago, owing to the increase in Dominion Government taxes, which this year amount to $2,539,874, compared with $2,242,905 a year ago.In the former figure is included an amount of $72,360, which is refundable under the provisions of The Excess Profits Tax Act.The profit, after payment of taxes, amounts to $3,283,018, compared with $3,437,026 a year ago, and represents 4.31 per cent.of capital, rest and undivided profits.This contrasts with 4.51 per cent.in 1041.Dividend payments show a reduction of $180,000, compared with last year's figure, the decrease being due to the lower rate of the dividend made effective in recent months.The dividend payments amounted to $2,700,000, which, with $500,000 appropriated for bank premises, left a net amount of $83,018 to be carried forward to profit and loss, making the balance in this account $1,236,686.Notable Increases Notable among the increases in resources is the figure for government and other bonds and debentures which amount to, $683,835,000, compared with $498,740,000 a year ago.Commercial loans amount to $221,354,000, compared with $275,- 698,000 in 1941.The former figure Teflects, no doubt, lessened requirements of business due to the increasing extent of government assistance to concerns engaged in war work, as well as the fact that Huntingdon Curling Ass'n Elects Officers many firms engaged in peace-time pursuits are not now requiring the accommodation needed in former years, In line with this is the indrease in the bank's quickly available resources which amount to $896,935.- ties to the public.Substantial increase in these resources is recorded in cash in the bank's vaults and money on deposit with the Bank of Canada, which stand at $112,710,- 000, compared with $92,755,000 in 1941 Like commercial loans, call loans have shown decrease, and amount to $16,210,000, compared with $£20,041,- 000, reflecting the lessened activity in security markets.Deposits at Record Figure Deposits, at the record figure ot $1,064,645,000 compare with $928,- 387,000 in 1941.These are made up of deposits in Canada of $930,996, \"000 and elsewhere $133,649,000, compared with $809,110,000 and $119,- 277,000 a year ago.Notes of the bank in circulation show a reduction from $17,890,000 to $15,354,000, reflecting the trend which began some years ago when the chartered banks commenced the gradual reduction of their note circulation in favour of the Bank of Canada.This reduction is now, under the terms of the Bank Act, occurring at a rate equal to 10 per cent, of capital per annum, and the circulation will eventually reach a figure equal to 25 per cent.of bank capital.With assets amounting to $1,175.- 319,000 and liabilities to the public totalling $1,098,526,000, the excess of resources amounts to 76,793,000.This is made up of the capital of fit and loss account and reserves for dividends totalling $40,793,000, which together represent the shareholders\u2019 equity in the bank.For Season Fees to Remain Same as Last Year\u2014 Representatives Named The annual meeting of the Hun- tingdon Curling Association was held on Priday evening, with a representative number of

are beginning to realize what it does for their children, and gspecially for the boys of the f y.In these days of so much gang spirit among boys, the Sunday School class affords an opportunity for team work.Your boy is at the hero-worshipping stage.Where could he get better ideals and hero stories than from the Bible stories told in Sunday School by a sympathetic teacher?In our parents\u2019 younger days there was not much effort made to maké the Sunday School appealing to the children, but the present-day teacher-training methods have prepared the young teacher for her work of leading young lives in the way of right lving.Besides, \u201cshe has a real interest in the boy and tries to make a personal friend of each pupil.The high ideals she will impart at this receptive age will never leave him.No matter what his life work may be, he will be the better msn for having come under the influence of the\u201dSunday School when young.From statistics from tne juvenile court, we learn that only a \"very small per cent of gangsters and boy criminals had ever attended Sunday School.It has been said that the war has aggravated the need of child care and character building.Youth is restless.Boy's clubs and Y.M.C.A\u2019s are needed now as never before.From the Sunday School the boys become interested in church attendance and church work, thereby learning invaluable lessons which make for truth, honesty and fair dealing, things much needed in the chaotic world of today.After the war there will be abundance of work to do in reclaiming and readjusting our social life.The hope of our country is in our youth, and we must begin now to prepare our children for the world of tomorrow, What better preparation can we give tahem than to lay the foundation of Christian character by cooperating with the Sunday School to teach them the Christian ideals which fe cherish?The Sunday School needs your boy.Your boy needs the Sunday School, Local Ration Board Named Will

government show that the 1942 crop of maple products was an exceptionally good one, not only in volume but in returns to the producers.An overwhelming majority of the maple products comes from the Province of Quebec.In maple syrup out of a total production in all Canada of 2,876,900 gallons, 2272,- 400 gallons are produced in Quebec.Prices this year were also exira good for the producer, the average price per gallon this year being $1.94 against $1.47 in 1941.Thus the total revenue from the crop in Quebec province this year is estimated at $5,008,400 against a total of $2,807,000 in 1841 and $3,295,- 800 in 1940, A crop which in a few weeks brings a return of such huge proportions is one of greatest importance to the farmer.SAWDUST FOR BAKERS LONDON\u2014®&idelight on the Germen menu,

the Play was a huge success and was a credit to all who assisted in its production.Spurred on by the uproarious laughter and by the applause of the appreciative audience, the players turned in a performance that was superb and in some scenes kept the audience in convulsions simply through the quality of their acting.The story centred around the lives of two small town families, and the pace was kept lively by the introduction of their friends and thelr friends\u2019 friends.The characters of Mr.and Mrs.Taylor were ably played by Wilbert Gruer and Vera Bennie and Douglas Temple- ton was excellent as their son, Bobby, who had recently returned home from college, bringing with him his friend, Michael Smith.Archie Roy, Howick Young People Present Amusing Comedy at Howick Actors and

the aged colored servant, was more! realistic than is many a negro and, provided much of the humor by the: expression which he gave to his; lines.Minor parts were well played, by Myrtle Ness as a small-town belle and by Florence Matti\u201de as a as the foreign and very romantic foreign countess.| Show Ayrshire Aù interesting \u201cwork-out\u201d of the proposed Type Classification Plan for Ayrshire females was held at the Maska Farm of the Provinclal Dalry School, St.Hyacinthe, Que.The object of the \u201cwork-out\u201d was to demonstrate the proposed plan to the members of the executive committee of Canadian Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association.A considèr- able number of other leading breeders from Ontario and Quebec and leading livestock officials of the Quebec and Dominion Departments of Agriculture were also in attendance.: The gradings and demonstrations were made by the Score Card Committee which is comprised of Professors G.Toupin (chairman) and A.R.Ness; Messrs, R.O.Biggs, 8.J.Chagnon and Frank Napier (secretary).C.T.Conklin, secretary of the American Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association, was also present and acted as master of ceremonies in view of his intimate knowledge of the American Ayrshire Association's type classification plan on which it is proposed to base the Canadian Ayrshire plan, Six Classes Under this plan there are six classes and animals are rated on a conformation basis only, that Is, however only females which have produced ong.or more calves.These classes are as follows: Excellent\u2014with a score of 90 or more points according to the official scale of points, but no animal can be so classed until after she has dropped her second calf.Very gnod\u2014with a score of 85 but less than 90 points.Good plus\u2014with a score of 80 but less than 85 points, Good\u2014with a score of T5 but less than 80 points.Fair\u2014with a score of 70 but less than 75 points.Poor\u2014with a score of less than 70 points.Strict Rules The rules as in vogue by the American Association and as proposed under the Canadian plan are quite stringent and include the following.No cow that tapes under 70% inches in heart, girth, which iz equivalent to 1000 pounds in weight can be classified as Excellent; if the udder of a cow under six years of age shows a distinct breaking away from the body, such cow shall not be classified higher than Faljr\u2014similarly in the case of a cow 6 to 10 years of age, this shall be considered as sufficient reason to reduce that cow by one Gr two classes, but a cow over 10 years with such

discretion of the inspector, but an animal shall not be penalized by defects due to injury, etc.To Be Voluntary This plan will be un a voluntary basis, but in making application the owner must list and agree to present to the inspector all cows and heifers which have produced one or more calves, the only exception being (if the owner desires) cows which have produced 100,000 lbs, of milk on official test.New Classification Plan Take Initial Steps Toward Introduction of U.S.Purebred Herd Idea Breeders He must agree to surrender certificates of all animals classed as Poor so that future progeny of such | animals shall not be eligible for registration.Also that he will not offer for registration any male calves from any cows classified as | Fair.J Once classified the rating then given cannot be reduced but re-iIn- « made after a period of five months.At such reinspections ali animals | which have in the meantime become eligible must.be suomitted for inspection.Breeders\u2019 Award Linked up with the American Ayrshire plan there ls a Constructive Breeders\u2019 award which links up the type classification plan with thelr advanced registry (our R.O.P.) Some 28 cows and helfers of the Maska herd were rated by the score card committee and these ralings were discussed by that committee and a number of those present.Since thls was only x preliminary \u201cworkout\u201d no official note wus made of these ratings but it might be mention-d that there was a decided unanimity ot opinion on the part of the commiticee and no criticism of such ratings on the part of those taking part in the discussions.As each cow was rated girth height, rump and pin bone measurements were made for comparative purposes and for subsequent study.The cattle were fAnally lined up In groups according to their ratings and again discussed.Was Good Herd Mr.Conklin stated that if this had been an official inspection in the United States the Maska animals would have entitled the owner to a Constructive Breeder award.8.J.Chagnon, as director of the Provincial Dairy School, was the official host to the gathering and at luncheon\u2014at which were featured the various brands of cheese for which the dairy school is famous \u2014addresses were giver ly Professor Toupin and Mr.vonklin, The latter was also presented with a Habitant blanket and & model of an Ayrshire cow.Georges Pelland, chief herdsman at Maska Farm, supervised the bringing out of the animals and he and Mr.Chagnon were heartily congratulss:d on the appearance of the herd which combines individuality with records and must surely rate as onc of the best Ayrshire herds on this continent, Altogether the event was most interesting and instructive which augers well for the final adoption of the plan by the annual meeting of Canadian Ayrshire Breeders\u2019 Association, and which has been tentatively approved by the executive corninittee, Similar demonstrations had previously been held at Macdonald College, Ste.Anne de Bellevue, and the Saniioim Farm of Hamilton Health Association with equally interesting and gratifying results.At Macdonald College the official host was Professor Alex.R.Ness, whilst Rayraond Brown, manager, and W.Forster, chairman of the farm committee were the official hosts at Sanholm Farm, order placing under permit ali slaughtering of live stock for the

resignation of Elliott M.Little, director of National Selective Service, has finally been announced officially.When Mr.Little first took over the task of Director of Selective Service, the public generally, were convinced that he was the man for the job.As the scheme progressed, the man on the street was even more convinced that here was a man who would do his job conscientiously and without fear or favor.The resignation of Mr.Little has not disproved this idea.From facts to hand, it looks as if Mr.Little was a little too honest to hold a government position.Reading between the lines it would seem that Mr.Little's idea of Selective Service was going to tramp on the toes of some of the friends of the government.Such a state of affairs might place the government in disrepute among these friends, so he was told to soft-pedal his ideas.It is quite evident that many of his ideas did not jibe with those of government members, so they would not sanction them.Prime Minister King in his speech over the radio on the subject of Selective Service said that only the young, the very old and the disabled, would be free from giving their services to the country.No fear or favor would be shown in administering Selective Service for the good of the country and its workings would go into effect at once, Despite the fact that there is continual talk of shortage of labor in war industries, nothing of great import has been done to date.In a war such as we are waging, things do not stand still, cities and countries fall overnight.Yet, eight months have been taken so far, to discover a means for increasing the human resources available for war industries, and nothing tangible has resulted.Mr.Little is the type of man who desires things to be done with the least possible waste of time, he asked for a free hand, and this apparently was granted to him.But if he is opposed on every hand and has to find other means of accomplishing his aims, what can be the result?It is apparent from his published letter of resignation, that such was the case.If anyone is to administer such a gigantic proposition as regulating human resources and industries, they must naturally be given a very free hand.Mr.Mitchell has accused Mr.Little of seeking the powers of a Czar.Only such power as this could possibly supply the solution to such an overwhelming problem, This same problem has been met and overcome in Great Britain, so why not here?Mr.Little was approaching the problem in very gradual steps, which so far as is known now, has met with very little opposition.It is only natural to expect that there would be opposition to moves that would curtail businesses, but so far, that opposition has mot been very great.Such a conclusion would seem to point out that the method being used is generally very satisfactory.Then, why should Mr, Little meet with opposition within the government ranks.There must be something radically wrong, which demands that the people should know what and where it is.If Mr.Mitchell is at fault, then remove him from his position, the country cannot be sacrificed for the policies or beliefs of one man.Two labor organizations have opposed the acceptance of Mr.Little's resignation on the grounds that he is a better man than Mr.Mitchell, and if anyone should be removed, it i5 the latter.In this end of our war effort, there i; plenty to be aired before the people and the sooner it is done, the better it will be for cveryone.The people of Britaln make no bones of settling such differences, even to severely criticizing Prime Minister Churchill, if they think he deserves it.We need have no qualms in the matter here.The main thought uppermost in the minds of the people should be Victory.To attain it, nothing must be left undone and the men in power should be answerable to the people for actions which have any question.The present situation demands clarification and the government should be immediately ready to accede to the demand.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 Prime Minister Churchill\u2019s 68th Birthday N Sunday, Prime Minister Churchill made a world-wide broadcast, on the occasion of his 68th birthday.In this broadcast, he gave the people some idea of the African situation and what might be expected from it.He told the world that Africa was not a seat, but just the springboard for further attacks on the enemy.He warned Italy that she could expect very severe and scientific bombing raids which would annihilate her industrial centres.He told the Italian people it was up to them whether they wanted this to happen.For the scuttiing of the ships of the French fleet in Toulon harbor, he praised the French people and told them that it would help in their eveutual liberation from the Nazi control, The speech in general was hard to define as to what trend one could say it was.That is, it was optimistic, it was pessimistic, it was hopeful and not hopeful, it gave promise, yet it made no promise.That it was careful, there was no doubt, and it gave the answer to many a thought, that Italy would be attacked.The | ! sult of careful planning and co-ordination.It has proved successful and the Prime Minister said the climax of the battle was in the making.That Hitler would break his armistice pledge with unoccupied France and march his troops through, left no doubt in the mind of the Prime Minister.There was no doubt in the minds of numbers of other people -on this score.The impetus in the African campaign has heartened the spirits of many among the peoples of the United Nations and has done much to bolster morale and the will to forge ahead to greater victories.The Prime Minister evidenced this in his speech, when he said that our supplies were increasing while the enemies\u2019 were decreasing.The greater the force of the attacks against the enemy, the greater will be the increase in production, victories, however small, give hope of the final victory.The Prime Minister made no promise when the war would be over or if it would be short or long.He said that after Hitler had been subdued, the British troops would then go to the Far East to help the Americans, Chinese and our kith and kin in Australia and New Zealand, if they stil) needed it.The Prime Minister sounded a little weary, but was hopeful that the final victory would be with the Allies, no matier how long the war may last.One thing about the whole speech, there was no undue praise given to any of the forces, the whole was regarded as a unit fighting the cause of the United Nations for peace.The forces in Tunisia are under the command of an American General, and the Prime Minister said that British soldiers would obey his every command just the same as the American soldiers would.Such unison should mean much for the success of the United Nations\u2019 campaign.-\u2014 W.LB.and McCormick NE of the most difficult and most valuable jobs which our Wartime Information Board has to accomplish is the telling of Canada\u2019s story in the United States.The task will be a difficult one for several reasons.The United States has thrown itself into this war with all its energies and the readers of American newspapers naturally are most anxious to hear about what their own nation and their own soldiers are doing.In addition to this there has been so little attempt on our part to talk about our effort this far in the war that there has no doubt grown in the US.almost an indifference of public feeling towards the role we play.Having maintained silence on our own achievements for three years now, we can hardly expect the average American to get a full appreciation of our contribution overnight.It will take time, and will call for all the thought and energy the W.I.B.has to give.It will be done, thankfully, not by sly propaganda nor even by press agentry, but by presentation of the full and accurate facts on the subject when required.One of the great values of this job, possibly the greatest, is that it will show the United States that they are not alone; that\u2019 we, as only one of the United Nations, are solidly with them in the decision to whip the Axis.It will prove that whatever efforts they expend are being augmented by our own relg- tively equal efforts, and will in so doing bring home the essential truth that Canada is but one of America's allies and the others too are doing their part.Thus will the union of feeling between Canada and the United States\u2014 or for that matter between all the United Nations\u2014be that much more close and enduring.There are those in the United States to whom such an effort on our part is highly unwelcome.They are those who comprise the small but bitter group of isolationists once known as America Firsters, men such as Charles Lindbergh, and the publisher of the Chicago Tribune, Col, Robert McCormick.These men want no amity between the U.S.and her allies; scme even would probably like no alliance.Some might be in favour of coming to terms with Hitler, leaving Britain alone to crush him, and turning U.S.forces solely against Japan.Among this group there is no goodwill for our Wartime Information Board, regardless of how scrupulously it operates.Signs of this antagonism have -already shown themselves.Col.McCormick has branded the W.IB, in a public address, as a controlling force over the newspapers of Canada \u2014ua \u2018ie calculated to make the press of Canada distrust its own Information Board.He has charged it with interfering in American affairs, a charge upon which he has not enlarged.A Tribune editorial has boldly told Canadians that our W.IB.was a dangerous institution which would lose more friends in = the US.than it would make.And there have been the host of quiet little rumours and scandais that have been set afoot here in Canada by special agents; McCormick has many people in Canada working for him, dependant entirely upon him for a livelihood.It is against blows such as this that our Information Board will have to stand squarely \u20141t can hardly fight back.The thing for Canadians to remember is that this vicious attack stems from KcCormick of the Chicago Tribune and his America Firsters; from Me- Cormick who hates Britain and the Empire, who leers at the armies who fight under the Union Jack and who over a period of years has shown complete disrespect for Canada, her newspapers and her laws.\u2014 Conserving electricity will be easy on the pocketbook even if it is hard on the eyes.\u2014_\u2014\u2014 Michigan Central Railroad is to be commended for the footpath between Fort Erie

CHATEAUGUAY, BEAUHARNOIS and HUNTINGDON COUNTIES From Manuscripts of The Late ROBERT SELLAR Wednesday, December 2nd, 1942 vt ILLIA LAL ALT TA LLL LLL LET CRDI à) JAMES PRINGLE (Continued) There were four brothers and four sisters of us.One sister was married to James Johnston, who lived on lot 36 and sold to Cook, when he got old.I was a member of Capt.Reid's Company, but did not go to Baker's, I was left with the guard in the village under Dr.McGibbon.Our guard-house was the old schonl behind the Methodist parsonage, where the road ran then.I and Johnston, my brother-in-law, went home each night unless it was our turn to be on duty.I was two winters in the volunteers and always went home, as did all who lived any way near the village.We all liked McGibbon.THOS.BURROWS\u2014My father Claud, was an old soldier and had a warrant for 200 acres.He came out in 1822 and lived at Lachine 5 years, when he met Bowron, who told him to come up here and he'd get the acres as well as he would in Ontario.He came in 1827 and settled on the lot owned by Vosburg and Edgar, at head of canal.He never got the promised lots, having to pay for them, all they were worth at that time.I am 58 years old and was 2 years old when he came here.The family came up in canoes, He worked at shoemaking for 15 years or so.He took his grist to Fort Covington on horse, and in crossing gullies held on to the beast\u2019s tail.On returning, natives were sure to be waiting to get a share of the flour and when they went, shared with us.DAVID ELDER\u2014My father came from Glasgow in the spring of 1817.How he happened to come up the Chateauguay, I do not know.He stayed at David Bryson's all winter, getting out oak staves.The following season he made his way up Trout River and stayed the winter of 1818 with Abram Sutton, getting \u2018out oak staves from the Morrison creek, chiefly.He then bought \"Brewster's improvements, where | Massam now lives, with the point opposite.I think James Terry came | about the same time as my father | (Mrs.Peckaver his daughter) he was lan Englishman, had been in the navy and was a rough old fellow.He lived at the end of the Holbrook j bridge in a shanty 10x12, He kept Christmas and my father New Year and I recollect they leaving us at home to go to the little feast he made at his place.When he found \u2018the lot that he was on was not Governnfent land and that he would have to pay for it, he moved east.Abram Sutton had three brothers, and one Daniel, who was very lame | taught schoo! in™a small shanty by | the roadside of the Burnside place, | (nearer the river than B's house).It was the first school I attended and scholars came from a distance, including the two Hartley girls, who were women, joining, so it must have been the first school in that section.He was a {air scholar I judge and had examinations, the prizes being colored drawings of his own making.He kept them in the loft above the room and I recollect the Hartley girls putting one up thru the trap and let the scholars see what they were like.He boarded with his brother.Another Hiram, had a very small tannery at the end of where the orchard now is, where he tanned a few hides\u2014buy- ing mostly the cattle himself.The next school I went to was one Mrs.Hezikiah Barter (she was a Brewster) opened in her house at Hen- dersonville and my last, that at Mud Creek when Dauskin came.I could only go two months or so in the winter to school, being needed at home.Americans, who lived as follows:\u2014 Thos.Black's Farm, Sam Richardson; Dan Black's Farm, Miner; Creighton\u2019s Farm, Major Wright; the Pages and Badcocks lived on the south side of the river opposite them; Johnston's Farm, Kelicate; Robt.Clark's Farm, Reed; Hugh Tannahills Farm, Stone; near Wm.Arthur's Farm, Booth, Pelton; Cooper on south side; on Robt, Dryden farm as it was called from All the people except Terry were its owner who lived in Montreal, Bill Lanktree; at the 9 mile road, Waggoner; east of Morrison's, Hutchins; Morrison's Farm, 2 Davis; Wm, Caldwell\u2019's Farm, Norton, Barlow, Deschambault, Sutton, Spencer; Burnside, Bombargd (French), Char- land (French); Hendersonville, 2 Barters; Donnelly Place, Dempsey, an Irish Yankee; on Lunan's Hill, Hartley; at Riley's, Hood, a fat Yankee, who lived alone; Tallon\u2019s Place, Tubbs.Amongst the first settlers who came in were English, Wilson, Masson, Gavin, Bill Lanktree, who had run away from his creditors at Buffalo, did not stay long, as they found him out and recovered what he had taken away.The people were all poor and fared hardly, corn, meal and potatoes being the diet.The johnny cake was made with cold water and I got so much of it when a boy that I cannot now bear to eat it.We got the corn ground at the Constable Mill, the only way to reach which was by a path through the woods.Old Barlow got some small contract on the Lachine Canal and on finishing it returned with 2 or 3 old horses and as many old tombreau.These were the first and only horses, I helieve from the Basin to the lines.In going to mill he would hire one and a boy for $2.00.The corn was carried in a long bag, one bushel at each end, and slung across the horse, the boy riding.It was an awful price, but what could the settlers do?If we went to Hunting- don, it was by canoe.The first saw mill was built by Col.Allan, an American, where the custom house is.He sold to Pettis, and he to Gib- son\u2014all Americans.Old Mr.White settled, on or near Gavin's place, which he cleared, but was so disturbed by the Donnellys, that he sold to them for a trifle and moved.I was wrong in saying Sutton\u2019s was first school.Wm.Barter lived on Donnelly's lot and Hezekiah Barter in Henderson\u2019s.His house was where Adams kept store, and in a room of it Mrs.Barter taught us.(To be continued) LVETEBECETEY HUNTINGDON 5c to $1.00 Store + CHRISTMAS GIFTS : AND TOYS -Û- For Ladies - - - Ladies\u2019 Scarves 29c

discernible in the capital these days a restrained but mounting optimism.It permeates everything, this belief that though the road is still dark, and though there will undoubtedly be pitfalls and ambushes along the path that may daunt the spirit, in the end victory cannot be denied to the great forces fighting for freedom.A degree of success such as achieved in North Africa and near Stalingrad certainly helps to bolster morale, The best possible insurance against the possibility that the United Nations could ever surrender has been the knowledge that defeat means slavery.It has also helped the fighting spirit to have aims of the allied nations formulated in such announcements as the Atlantic Charter, but any elixir to help morale is much improved by a few drops of genuine military success.These drops\u2014pretty substantial ones\u2014have been added.At the same time no drops of complacency have been put into the mixture.There is no place for them.Manpower Disputes It is very unlikely that the government is going to be stumped for long by the row over the manpower administration.The resignation of Elliott Little, director of national selective service, good man though he was, is \u201cwater under the dam.\u201d No branch of the war effort, particularly such an important one as the distribution of manpower, can rip NF FIT IRI IPI IFRI ITIP FIIIP IIRL TI INIIF S525 55 remain idle and the country has been assured that the machinery will continue to turn.Through a new order-in-council the powers of the Wartime Prices Board to curtail non-essential industry and thus release men for war- industry have been increased and clarified.This means a new drive in this extremely difficult branch of the manpower administration, For the rest, we may be assured that full and immediate consideration is being gven to the much-discussed memoran- cum given by Mr.Little on the eve of his resignation, and that everything of genuine value in it will be adopted.The solution of

\u201cold man\u201d by Australians.It lives today mainly on the plains and open forests of the interior and is the largest of more than 120 species in the queer kangarco family.The great gray kangaroo reaches a weight of 200 pounds and a length of ten feet from the nose io the tip of its versatile tail, which usually is the length of the entire animal, divided by two and one half.This gray monster can cover twenty feet at a single bound and leaps easily over rocks and bushes that turn aside hunting dogs and horseback riders who hunt the kangaroo as the Englishman hunts the fox, Mother kangaroos are very devoted to their young, and if sudden danger threatens while the young is outside the pouch, the mother will start toward it at full speed, gather it up in her forepaws as she passes, and tuck it in her pouch without seeming to check her flight.: Timid as it is, the kangaroo fights desperately when cornered.With its forepaws it tries to push its attackers down within reach of a forward slashing blow of the terrible claws on its hind feet.It COCOA The Favourite for Over 200 Years GREAT BARGAINS \u201cTHE LITTLE SHOP\u201d GECLOCLTECELGEOLUVATEOLCEA?XMAS LOVELY DRESSES CHATEAUGUAY

and Cakes To many people Christmas is not | complete unless they have a real good Ohristmas Pudding and a Cake.In olden days it was the custom to pour spirits over the pudding and bring it in to the festive table all alight.The plum pudding was the greatest delight of the Christmas meal.With so many good things that we have known in past years, the pudding today will have even greater respect on account of the war and shortages of many of those things we have been used to.However, below we give a recipe for a Christmas Pudding and a Light Fruit Cake.Puddings and cakes are always better if made a few weeks ahead of time, they seem to gain added flavour if kept for a few weeks.almonds Pt bt but CD bt pat 0d HERS pr > + g a 3 8 egg whites METEOD: Wash und scald the raisins, then drain and

farmer, later a successful contractor in Toronto, where he and his wife and their daughters still reside, the latter in their own homes but rear their parents.There is one other son, a busiisess man.Mr.Troyer left home at the age uf 18 to work in a factory and later abtained a post in the Civil Service.In 1931 he became a missionary student, serving at Cochrane, Ont, for seven months.From there he went to Magnetawun and covered a wide stretch of Northern Ontario by dog-sled and on skis, travelling 22 miles each Sunday to preach at three stations.After five and a half years up north, he held a pastorate at Bradford, Ont., for two years.In 1939 he undertook the charge comprising the two congregations nf Heni- mingford and Covey Hill.In addition to church duties, he munaged to attend classes at Toronto University, where he was also instructor in advanced swimming.He also wrote feature article: for various Toronto newspapers, Including a series on accidents in Ontario and another series on his experiences in the north country.In the fall of 1940 he ~ntered the Presbyterian College, Montreal, «t- tending classes during the week, and looking after his pastoral duties over week-ends.In the summer of 1941 he began work as a Government Inspector in a large munitions plant in the Montreal disurict, and this spring the Principal of the College released him from attendance at lectures so that he might undertake the interesting, but aigh- ly responsible duties of personnel official in the same plant.In this position Mr.Troyer has his own office and private secretary, and it is his work to smooth difficultles between the inanagement and the thousands of men and women em- teresting and touching stories : [I the workers\u2019 experiences brought to light by the sympathetic handling of their cases.It may be asked, how was he able to assume such a responsible position?Pitted in the first place by strong native powers of observation and discernment as well as a kindly, generous disposition and high standards of right and wrong, he had had managerial experience in a glass factory and was especially qualified for handling people because he had taken a course in psychology, and he was naturally \u201ca good mixer.\u201d But all this is only half the story of the work accomplished by Mr.Troyer.He was personnel officer for the war work in a Governmeut plant, but he had a highly qualified personnel officer in his wife, who carried on the work in his absence from his pastoral charge.Experienced In secretarial work before her marriage and gifted as a musician and singer, Mrs.Troyer charmed all who met her by her thoughtful and cordial kindNness.In the Sunday School, women's meetings, and eveu in the pulpit during her husband's illness, her beautiful Christian character rud- iated a benign influence, while her gifts in prayer and discourse were of a high order.Mr.Troyer aims to do his utmost in war work but does not intend to abandon his theological career.If this | flour with the salt and spices and add these also.Stir until well mixed.Beat the egg yolks and add these to the first mixture along with the molasses and milk.Now beat the

Canada\u2019s Army Christmas is coming and the question of what to send the soldier boys is again to the fore.This is not the first Christmas for soldier's parcels but it will be the first time boxes are made up for soldier girls.Hundreds of girls serving with the armed forces will be away from home on Christmas Day and will have their own letters to Santa ai- ready in their minds.What shall be sent to them?The knowledge that clothing and equipment is in large measure provided for the girls of the Canadian Women's Army Corps may seem to make the problem of choosing presents for them a difficult one.But there are things dear to the heart of any girl, be she soldier or civilian, which will bring a sparkle to her eyes on Christmas Day.Here are a few suggestions: books.notepaper and envelopes, a fountain pen, and pencil set, face powder and colognes, or a folding pocket comb which will fit neatly into shirt pocket or into those smart little khaki satchels which swing from the shoulder when the girls of the C.W.A.C.are walking out Then there might be an attractive housecoat of silk or wool which wii be a joy in leisure evening hours in barracks, pyjamas and nightgowns (well cut and without too much lace as the laundering Is usually done by the girls themselves), would not be out of order A Christmas stocking might hold a hundred-and-one surprises sucn as: hand lotion, toilet creams, a tin of shoe polish, a polishing cloth, or a button-stick which is an essentia in keeping uniforms smartly turned out.A clothes whisk in e neat leather case, a laundry bag.a folding leather photograph frame or a palr of soft bedroom slippers, preferably without heels for convenience in packing, might all be Included in the Christmas parcel.And how about folding in a neat bill in the stocking's toe?A little extra pocket money would help out until next pay day.Toffee or chocolates, homemade cookies or a Christmas cage from Mother's own recipe would be wel- comed by the girls whose fare in! , while adequate and excellent, is not designed to include these frills.Do not imagine that because a daughter, sister, cousin or aunt has donned the King's uniform, she lias put away her own delightful femininity.S8he hasn't, and she will be looking forward to those gifts from home while sharing her joys with her fellow members of the C.W.AC.on Christmas Day.DRAWERS THAT STICK

Livestock.(Continued from page 1) It will provide wide control of the conservation of valuable by-pro- ducts, particularly much-needed fats, as well as hides and other items.Custom slaughtering will be controlled, as this now is added to the list of services regulated by the Board.The Board order designating custom slaughtering a service for purposes of the price regulations also provides that maximum prices therefore are to be determined by those established in the period Oct.26 to Oct.31, 1942, both dates inclusive.Jurisdiction over this service is assigned to the Foods Administrator.Those who slaughter lve stock outside a recognized abattoir or slaughter house and offer the meat for sale also will require permission.The Board says it is felt that the control established under the new order will be valuable in eliminating \u201cblack market\u201d practices which have been reported from time to time in some areas, interfering with normal regulated domestic supplies and those required for the armed forces.Double Check Interim permits to slaughter live stock, or to have live stock custom slaughtered, will be issued to all persons applying for them.These permits will be issued by 1egional and sub-regional offices of the Prices Board.When the permits have been forwarded to Ottawa by the local offices and the applications reviewed by the Foods Administration, permits for continued operation may be issued, replacing the interim certificates.Applications for interim permits must include particulars of the applicants\u2019 businesses which qualify them to engage in the slaughtering of live stock.Each permit holder must display it conspicuously in his place or places of business.Such a permit is not transferable.The holder may also be required to supply any information required by the Foods Administration from time to time.REX CENKEXNEXXEXKTEXEX NEW CHRISTMAS DAILY SO SHOP EARLY AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A LARGE SELECTION.\u201cBuy a

demands, the situation does not constitute an emergency; nor is it as serious as some people seem to think.There are two main causes for these temporary and local shortages: AT MEAL-TIME on b when

extravagance.Waste is wrong at all times.In time of war it For the past year we have been consistently using * 10% to 15% more butter than in normal times\u2014 with consequent disturbance to the distribution - of our butter supplies.\u2018Many people have been buying more butter than they currently need.The limited nature of the present shortage is shown by the fact that if every home would reduce its consumption of butter by only one ounce per person per week (for the average home this means a quarter of 4 pound a week) \u2014or if we reduced our national consumption to the peacetime rate\u2014the shortage would soon disappear.There is no Reason for Panic Buying It is unpatriotic and unnecessary for housewives to rush out to beat their neighbours to the nearest grocery store.Butter will not be rationed to meet the present situation.Butter production is actually above normal for this time of year.The Board itself is taking.special action which it is believed will speedily restore normal supplies in retail stores.~These supplies will however be adequate for normal consumption, if houscwives in all parts of Canada co-operate.You can help in these ways: pp
