Canadians restricted to two pounds a week each, one-half pound less than their average per capita consumption in the past two years.Pinance Minister Ilsley announced the new rationing program in the House of Commons Wednesday.There had been no warning of final Government decision that rationing was necessary, although such a program had been expected since the imposition of meat rationing in the United States this month.Methods of applying the rationing program are being worked out by the Prices Board, which will make further announcements of the detalls.The Minister explained that behind the rationing program was the Canadian program of exporting meat products as part of its contribution to the war program of the United Nations.Production of meats had increased, but exports and home consumption both were higher, and during the past efght or nine months \u201cspasmodic distribution shortages of meat have occurred in several parts of the country.\u201d After allowing for export commitments, 1043 domestic supply would be no greater than in 1942, while the potential consumer demand was almost certain to be greater.A further reason for rationing was the need of maintaining the flow of supplies overseas to Canadians in the forces and others in the front Line of battle.Mr.Tlsley said that a nutrition advisory committee to the Prices Board Foods Administration had concluded that a ration of two pounds of meat a week, plus customary amounts.of milk, eggs, cheese, fish and poultry, gave more protein Couillard Bros.of Aubrey Winners of Grain Competition The Farmers Co-operattive of Ste.Martine, in 1942, offered prizes to members of the society, in Cha- teauguay County, for fields of not less than 10 acres of mixed grain.The judges awarded the first prize to Coulliard Bros., of Aubrey, Que., as being close to being 100 per cent perfect.They lately received a cheque for $2000 for first prize.The farm was formerly owned.by Alex.McGregor.A Large Litter Mr.Guy Stowell of Dundee, Que.who is a river guide, owns a Chesapeke bay retriever, which recently gave birth to a litter of twelve .pups.All were living, but five have since been destroyed.The pups were born on April lst.This seems to an unusually large number to be borm at one time and seems to constitute something of à record and therefore worthy of note.THRIFTY MAN MAILS CHRISTMAS CARDS

eating places are proposed to conserve meat supplies and avoid discrimination against those who do not make frequent use of restaurants .Redemptions of War Savings Certificates $19,899,296 Purchases of war savings certificates from March 1, 1942, to January 31 this year totalled $71,751,824, said a return tabled in the House of Commons recently for A.C.Onssel- man (Prog.Con.,

savings stamps totalled $9,749,- 812 with redemptions of stamps through the purchase of certificates amounting to $9,394,480.Farmers Urged to Lend For Victory An Appeal to Farmers Of Huntingdon County The following is an appeal from the Agricultural Advisory Committee, of which P.D.McArthur, of Howick, Que., is a member, to the farmers of Huntingdon County to support War Savings and Victory Loan campaigns to the est of thcir ability.The fourth Victory Loan drive will soon be launched and farmers are being especially asked to make a greater effort toward its success.The Agricultural Advisory Committee is made up of men acquainted with the agricultural situation, and they met in Montreal recently to discuss matters pertaining to the Fourth Victory Loan in rural districts.They will offer advice in regard to the forthcoming drive as it affects the farmer and his ability to subscribe to the loan.The message follows: To the Farms in the Chateauguay Valley When we review the yearly statistics of the agricultural production in this District, it is not long before we realize that we are in a rich and advanced country.It is nevertheless, curious to refer back to ae (6) years and especially ten (10) make çom- gion ig a \u201cven witty Gia Wkatarene ifist P.D.McARTHUR, HOWICK of their revenue.coming out of the bush, as one might vulgarly say.The ceiling of prices limit the profits realized during the course of the other war, but, in comparison with the same \u201cceiling,\u201d for a great quantity of merchandise, it definitely acts in a favorable manner.: Will the farmer follow the same principles as during the last war?We recall that if he has earned much, he has, on the other hand, spent nruch, and quite often, too much so.We have seen him, when the depression of 1929, began to make itself felt as far back as 1924, begin to have sad recollections.Shall we live again certain days of want of foresight?We most certainly hope not.It is for this reason that we must accept now and then a reminder to economize.Oh, it is difficult to realise these economies and still more so to preserve them.It is thus we must tolerate the onerous but imperative necessity to economize, It sometimes arises that with the wisdom of economizing for one\u2019s own interest, one must add one's patriotic cuty, and this is what is taking place in the world at the present day.Within a few weeks you will be asked to place your surplus money, if you have any, in Victory Bonds, Your first reaction will, no doubt be: \u201cWhat! Again!\u201d Yes, again and again as long as Victory has not smiled upon our armies.And this Victory interests each one of us to the highest point, for the war is beginning to press us into close corners.We are in it, one might commonly say, nothing matters now but to come out Victorious in the end.We ask the farmers to combine their financial interests with their patriotic duties.We agk them to lend, not to give, and we assure them the greatest guarantees that a State can offer.No farmer has regretted buying Victory Bonds in the last war, Much to the contrary.Even when we realized it at the cost of many privations, as is now the case, economy well placed remains the most precious of assets.We ask the farmers to produce more farm products to dell at an advantage, for prices have greatly increased during the last three years.This is an effort which we recommend.From the product of this additional effort we ask you to place a certain amount in war savings.It is thus a second remuneration since it draws a good interest and has a maximum of security.With the kind authorization of the publishers of this newspaper, we al- Jow ourselves to remind you (farmers) to reflect at length on these two points, before answering At last they are by fits and starts.HUNTINGDON, QUE., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 7th, 1943 Chateaugu ses - [hear Mr.John Bracken.Before -4 banquet, which was given in honour pus Ra JOHN BRACKEN, LEADER OF THE PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE PARTY FOR THE DOMINION Mr.John Bracken was the Guest of Honour at a banquet tendered him at The Chateau, on Tuesday evening, by

Great Welcome at Banquet and Meeting + The visit of the Hon.John Bracken, Leader of the Progressive Conservative Party in Canada and also Leader of the Opposition, was a most auspicious one for Huntingdon, when this took place on Tuesday evening.The reason for this, came to light during the remarks made in the welcoming addresses, for John Bracken is the first Leader of either lof the two great national parties in to ever honour Huntingdon ingdon and vl County of 0: dnd the sy to of the distinguished visitor, commenced, Mr.Bracken had the task of: meeting and shaking hands with the 145 people who crowded thé lobby of The Chateau.After the introductions all sojourned to the dining room to partake of the splendid meal sponsored by the local Conservative committee of which Alderman A.C.H.Picard is the President.Three long tables were filled on both sides by those in attendance, while the guest of honour and other celebrities were seated at a table at the head of the room.Those at this table were: Mr.Simeon Beaudin of Howick, Mr.John Robinson of Hem- iningford, Mr.À.C.H.Picard of Huntingdon, Mr.John Bracken, Guest of Honour; Mayor W.E.8.McNair of Huntingdon, Mrs.W.E.8.McNair, J.A.Mann, Vice-President of the Quebec Progressive Conservative Party, of Montreal; Mr.Dave Grieg of Ormstown, Mr.A.A.Lunan of Huntingdon and Mr.Walter Arthur of Athelstan.\u201d Mayor McNair welcomed Mr.Bracken in behalf of the Town and County of Huntingdon and also ior the County of Chateauguay.He thanked the guest of honour for including Huntingdon in the list of places on his tour of the province and called upon Mr.Picard to say a few words.Mr.Picard addressed the gathering in French, during which he offered his thanks for the visit and hoped that sometime in {he near future Mr, Bracken would again see fit to come to this town.Mr.Walter Arthur of Athelstan, then addressed the gathering by offering words of welcome to the distinguished guest and spoke of his visit to the convention held at Winnipeg, last year, when Mr.Bracken was selected to lead the Progressive Conservative Party.He uttered words of sorrow that the present government had not permitted the proceedings of the convention to be broadcast over the air, as many more people would have heard what went on.Mr.A.A, Lunan was called upon to say a few words and spoke of his first meeting with Mr.Bracken, in Winnipeg in 1939, when he was there during a curling competition.He remembered that he wore a button with his name and the place he was from.Mr, Bracken came up to him and looked on the button, noticed he was from Quebec and gave him a good welcome.Mr.Lunan said he thought this showed that he was a man who was interested in his fellow men, He further said that he hoped that when he came back to Huntingdon, Mr.Bracken would be known as the first citizen of the country.It was at this point that Mayor McNair told those present that he had been given to understand that this was the first occasion that Hunt- ingdon had been favored by a visit from either of the leaders of the two great national parties.Mr.Bracken replying to the speakers said, he was glad of having the opportunity of meeting the people of the Counties of Huntingdon and Chateauguay and was Lumberg of people could hear and meet the honoured guest.The meeting opened at approximately 9.45, with Mr.G.Monette as the first speaker, who spoke in the French language and gave an introduction to Mr.Bracken, He gave a brief outline of Mr.Bracken's lite and progress in the political world during the time he was Premier of Manitoba, Mr.P.D.McArthur of Howick, an old friend of Mr.Bracken, addressed he audience and welcomed Mr.on.He told ot : gel butter prices- wan: He said he regretted Unes: Bracken was not present at this but hoped that she would be present on some future occasion, when the people of Huntingdon might be given the opportunity of meeting the first lady.He also mentioned that Mr, Bracken had been Premier of Manitoba for a period of 21 years, which he thought showed a good record.Mr.Bracken then addressed the audience.One might have expected a flery type of oratory, but such was not the case.The speaker gave rus address in a matter-of-fact manner, very quietly and distinctly and more as if he was telling a number of friends a life story.He began by saying that he was born on a farm in Ontario not so very far from Huntingdon, that he had been up at 4.30 a.m.and milked the cows, done the chores, had his breakfast, gone out and done a day's work, had his supper, milked the cows and done more chores and then the rest of the dey was for himself.He finally entered Guelph College and then accepted a position in Saskatchewan with the Federal Government.Later he accepted a position at the University of Saskatchewan, in charge of Field Husbandry.He then became Dean of Manitoba University at Winnipeg, and it was while here that he was approached to take over the leadership of a Farmers Group which had formed a government, He had led that group and been Premier af the Province of Manitoba for twenty-one years.Now he was asked to lead a national group and in a larger field.He said he felt it was his duty to accept in these times when there was so much to be done, otherwise he would not have been here.ng of the more immediate things, he said that there were three things to be done; win the war, win the peace ard make the world a better one after the war.He urged all present to support th present government in winning the war and ahove all to support the forthcoming Victory Loan Campaign.He sald we must supply our fighting meh with the equipment they need 50 that they can win the war for us.Next, we must see to it that the men and women of the armed forces, the munition workers and our young men are given jobs with good pay so that they will not be on relief after the war.He spoke of the huge sum that the war was costing Canada compared to the cost of the last war.He pointed out the problems of the farmers in the west and said he had tried to understand the problems of the people and farmers of the east.The reason he was making this tour was so that he would have a beter chance of understanding the problems of the people in Nova Scotia, the Maritimes, Quebec and British Columbia.He knew the problems of the people in the Prairie Provinces, but he was not 40 well acquainted with those of the provinces mentioned.He again thanked present for the way they had ed out to greet him pleased at the welcome [To Use Spare Coupons To Get Rhubarb Sugar First use of spare coupons in Ration Book No.2 was authorized on Thursday by officials of the ration administration, W.P.T.B., when they announced the use of blue coupons No.1 (spare B)

speaker was Dr.M.R.Stalker, who chose\u2019 as his subject \u201cHealth Insurance.\u201d The matter of Health Insurance is being widely discussed today and is very much in the news and no doubt readers will find new angles to the subject in the following.Reasons for the Change from the Present System of Medical Service To General Health Insurance 1.Experience in Canada has shown that during periods of economic depression that only the rich man can afford adequate health services.2, Adequate public health measures are not carried out by\u2019 our given by Health Ins + in gene cral for the post war period.In studying the history of Health Insurance, we find that Germany has had a plan in operation since 1883, Austria 1888, Hungary 1889.Sweden 1891, Denmark 1892, Norway 1909 and Britain 1911, It has been conceded that considering the conditions in those countrjes prior to the introduction of Health Insurance that there has been some lin- provement generally.It also can be sald that where it has been handed down from the Government to the people, it has usually been a political football with much curtailment of individual liberty.The system in Denmark was considered to be the most successful.There it developed on a voluntary basis aided by Government subsidy.70% of the population was involved.On the North American continent, there has been only small localized attempts to institute something sim- wating Health Insurance.The reasons for this are that economic conditions have generally been better than elsewhere in the world and that individual liberty has been more prominent than elsewhere.There has been a tendency for the people to believe what George Washington said: \u201cHe who seeks security through surrender of liberty loses both.\u201d The plan that is being debated upon in our Federal Government was then summarized: The Federal Government will subsidize any prbvince that accepts and follows a specific plan.Briefly, every This would vary if the salary was less than a certain amount.Then every individual would name their medical practitioner.When his ser- Dr.M.R.Stalker Gives Address on Health Insurance tuberculosis would be very

disadvantages are real, they possibly could all be overcome but the really great difficulty was that of bureaucracy.The number of commissions and regional officers that were required to administer

too great a price to pay fer security\u201d In this connection a paragraph from the last speech of Prime Minister Winston Churchill was read: \u201cWe must beware of trying to build & soclety in which nobody counts for anything except the politician or official, a soclety where enterprise gains no reward and thrift, no privi- adult will be taxed a certain amounts jeges, 1 say \u2018try to

sanatorium.All accounts would be paid from the large Provincial Health Insurance fund.Public health would be managed by the Health Insurance scheme.Children up to a certain age would receive free dental care.A certain amount of necessary nursing would be provided in private homes.The machinery that would be mission, and Regional Medical Officers.Reports will be required in every blood.These two wars scourging and harrowing men\u2019s souls have made the British nation the master in its own house.The people have rendered conscious that they are coming into their own inheritance.\u201d \u201cWhile Churchill had advocated Social Security in the first part of his speech, he had issued this warning that it must be managed by other than a bureaucracy or the people would not accept it.In conclusion, it was pointed out that we have 700,000 men who are now fighting for our liberties and security.That when they return thet this country must see to it that they and their families are secure, That we, ag a nation, must see to it that there\u2019is some general plan by which case 80 that the insurance office may oversee the services rendered, Very briefly, advantages and dis advantages and difficulties were discussed.HE shèrers di .glass every individual has an opportunity.It was pointed out that as had been stated in Churchill's speech, that these men had given up their priv- fleges and their individual liberties for several years to secure thelr country.That they had been ruled by the bureaucracy of the Sergeant Major during this time.While security would be their right they would hunger lor individual liberty.Therefore, unless our leaders and our legislators could give us social security of which Health Insurance was one part, without it E à bureaucracy would be doomed to fail, It could even lead to & revolution.\u2018 Page Two The Huntingdon Gleaner Published by The Huntingdon Gleaner Inc.ADAM L.SELLAR, President and Editor, Huntingdon, Que.Subscription

businessman, mill owner and manufacturer, and to every farmer, is the threatened shortage of fuel wood which is already making itself felt in this district and throughout the entire Dominion of Canada.This matter is being called to the attention of every one dally, through the medium of the press and by radio and by addresses at public gatherings.It is already a serious matter, but it will be much worse by next winter, if something is not done to assure the Chateau- guay Valley its supply of wood fuel.In à country such as ours, it is imperative that we have warm places in which to live and work, we cannot stand the intense cold of this country without adequate fuel requirements.Health demands that our places be heated properly all throughout the winter months, both night and day, the same state of affairs is required to keep our plumbing from freezing and becoming useless; it is necessary to the proper functioning of our business places and mills, etc.The suggestion was made at the annual Board of Trade meeting that a municipal woodlot be arranged and that the Town Council endeavor to have wood hauled to this point for distribution among those requiring wood fuel during the summer and coming winter.This was hailed as a good suggestion, but it was thought that it would be better if handled through a pool by means of which the money would be advanced to buy the wood and actual sales made by local fuel merchants to the consumer.Both these ideas are good ones, but it is imperative that they be put into action at once.There is wood in this district, but if arrangements are not made to buy it up, it will be sold to other districts, we will be the losers.Added to the wood fuel shortage is the uncertainty of coal supplies.We are assured by the Government that there will be supplies of coal and that no one need go cold, but at times in Huntingdon and district coal has been on the short side for weeks at a time.We were glad to note that Mayor W.E.S.Mc- Nair, who brought up the matter at the Board of Trade meeting, placed so much emphasis on it and made his appeal a stirring one.He is far-sighted enough to realise the position the people will be placed in if wood is not forthcoming.He must have co-operation in the matter and action must be forthcoming with the least possible delay to see that no fuel famine hits this community next winter.AR people are advised to buy next: winter fuel supplies well in advanee; À and as soon:as possible 45 \"#7 *- The\u201cbigane -hes-Vetin placed upon the gov- ernaiient T6PBE fuel situation, although we believe that this is really misplaced.The whole situation comes about due to shortage of labor and wartime needs.To encourage farmers with woodlots, the Government has offered a subsidy of $1.00 per cord; the trouble is, the farmer, who is short of help has not the time to go out and cut the wood.Where wood is already cut, perhaps there is no means or time to haul it where required.If the farmer can make a deal for the sale of his wood, naturally he does so.If the suggested pool was to get into operation, it could deal with the person having wood for sale and make arrangements to purchase same.The local wood dealers could make their own arrangements regarding the suitable storing of the wood and its resale to the consumer.The pool would naturally have the local wood dealers as part of its formation, who would be able to advise on the quality and quantity of the wood available.Fast action is needed, however, and we trust that the suggestion already made will bear fruit in the immediate future.If some plans are not made well in advance, the people of this district are liable to find themselves in very difficult circumstances insofar as fuel wood is concerned.The situation has been brought to the attention of everyone and it remains now for the necessary action to be taken to give reasonable assurance that there will not be a fuel famine next winter.A Late Easter W- have heard it remarked by a number of people and we have expressed remarks on the subject ourselves, that Easter is very late this year.Good Friday is April 23rd; Easter Sunday, 25th; and Easter Monday, 26th.Only a few more days and the end of April.Usually Easter heralds the new fashions and the coming out, (so to speak) of all the spring and summer suits and dresses, etc.Oftentimes those intending to don their new spring clothes at Easter are disappointed on account of the weather.It would seem, therefore, that as Easter is 30 late this year, the weather will have had time to become more settled and to be more favorable to the coming out of what ever the latest fashions are to be this spring.But to get back to the late Easter.On glancing through the many newspapers which come to the Editor's desk, we found among them one which gave us a clue to why Easter is late this year.The folowing is taken from the Leamington Post and News and expiains the why and the wherefore and is very interesting: pe WHY EASTER IS LATE Quote: \u201cHad it not been for a difference in befween the astronomical and the ecclesiastical calendars, Easter this year would have TVET fallen on the 28th of March instead of on the 25th of April.The rule set for fixing of Easter, as given in the Church of England Prayer Book, reads: \u2018Faster Day is always the first Sunday after the full moon which happens upon, or next after, the twenty-first day of Mareh, and if the full moon happens upon e Sunday, Easter Day is the Sunday after.\u2019 Now the March full moon fell on the twen- ty-first this year, and under the above rule it would appear that Easter should be celebrated on the 28th.The explanation given is that the ecclesiastical tables, adopted by Pope Gregory XIII in 1582, are based on the full moon falling fourteen days after the new moon.But in reality the full moon comes fourteen days and eighteen hours after the new moon.The consequence is that the ecclesiastical full moon fell on Saturday, March 20th, whereas the moon did really mot reach full until the 21st.As a result, Easter this year is celebrated on the very last day of the 35 days on which it can fall.This has not happened before since 1887, and will not happen again this century.\u201d A Reputation to Live up to 'T was very interesting to note that in a computation of figures on the sale of Victory Bonds in Huntingdon Town, according to population, that the purchases averaged one to every tthree persons.This does not mean that that number of persons purchased individual bonds, but in the aggregate, it amounted to the same thing.Rural sections did not do so well, but the record was fairly good and compared with other sections of the Dominion.We have always said that Hun- tingdon and the Chateauguay Valley has been ready to do its share and more for any worthwhile project and the figures show that we are right and that the Chateauguay Valley does lve up to its reputation and will continue to do so.© In a matter of three weeks, the people of this district will be asked to lend their dollars by purchasing bonds in the fourth Victory Loan campaign, which starts on April 26th, and in which the Dominion is to be asked to subscribe at least $1,100,000,000.The quota for Huntingdon County and the other points in the Chateauguay Valley is not known yet, but we know that all points will see that their quotas are reached and possibly oversubscribed.\u201cBack the Attack\u201d is the official slogan for the campaign, Other suggested slogans are: \u201cThere's Still a Tough Fight Ahead\u201d and \u201cInvest For Victory\u2014Plan For Peace.\u201d It has become recognized that investing in Victory Bonds means putting aside a nest egg which will help to take care of after-the-war worries.It is further recognized that we must lend our money to help finance the war and carry us to victory.Without victory all our money would be worthless.Therefore the urgent need at the moment is to lend the money and lend all you possibly can, so that we shall be assured of victory and be assured that our money will do us the most good.The United Nations appear to be geared in readiness to make an attack on the Nazi European garrison, if and when this comes, we shall be required to Back the Attack mot only with money but with all forms of supplies.Upon the results of this attack will no doubt depend: 4 the outcome of the war, either we.wil rimat: we will lose.We are of Brigantine victory, that we shall not tei Veto: irom the minds of most everyones.e is a lot to be done between now and victory.Many of us have not given this subject sufficient thought, we are inclined to say, oh well, I bought a Victory Bond last time, I don't think I'll bother this time.That is the wrong idea.We must buy a bond, or two, if we can, that is the only way we can make victory sure.We must build more ships, planes, tanks, equip more men, make more shells, guns and ammunition of all kinds.We must swamp the enemy with all we have and subdue him for all time.When we have accomplished that, we shall have the victory we want.We must also remember, that the enemy is not only in Europe, but he is in the Far East, he must be subdued there also.We have to make up our minds that we shall be called upon to buy Victory Bonds and War Savings Certificates as long as ever the war continues and we are duty bound to purchase them as often as possible and in as large amounts as we are able.Railways\u2019 Joint Advertising T will be noticed from reading the advertising columns of The Gleaner that the two big railway companies have consolidated their advertising under a joint program.Both these companies are doing the same work, have the same ideals and the same objectives as the rest of Canada, that is to win the war.They are working together on the war effort, hauling the war supplies across Canada, taking the people to their war work, carrying troops and governmental personnel to points where necessary, buying Victory Bonds and War Savings Certificates and so on.The two railway companies of our Domin- jon are as one gigantic war industry, possibly the largest and most essential to our war effort.Last year, 150 million tons of materials, foods and munitions were hauled.Twenty million new passengers\u2014fighting men and war workers, were carried.Tanks, guns, shells and ships were built.Twenty-two thousand railway men and women are in the armed forces of the country.150,000 railway workers remain to carry on the duties performed by the companies.They are now busier than ever providing mass transportation that only the railways can furnish.Gasoline restrictions have added an additional burden to railway traffic, both in goods hauled and passengers carried.The country depends upon the railways to do this job and with the cooperation of everyone it can be done.The railway workers are among those who are not complaining about thetr job or kicking about the amount -of money they receive or a hundred and one other things which many other war workers are and have been doing.Much credit can be given to the raliway _\u201d companies of Canada for their work in connection with the war effort, and e great deal of this credit goes to the railway workers themselves for their self-denial when calls are made on them to subscribe to the various war needs other than thelr regular work.| butter through their Chronology -\u2014 \u2014 ,CHATEAUGUAY, BEAUHARNOIS and HUNTINGDON COUNTIES From Manuscripts of The Late ROBERT SELLAR PSE EEE RE ERE ER ENE EEE I KAT

storekeeper sells their butter to the householders in the normal course of trade, they will surrender their coupons.If, however, the offerings of butter are more than can be sold in the usual course of trade, storekeepers or wholesalers will give the farmer a receipt and the stocks of butter will be turned over through local agents to the Commodity Prices Stabilization Corporation.The maximum prices at which a primary producer may sell dairy butter to a wholesale distributor, storekeeper or direct to customers are fixed by the Ration Administration in five areas: British Columbia, Alberta and Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Quebec, and the Maritimes, - When buying for the account of the Corporation the retailer or wholesaler will be allowed 2c.handling charge, paid by the

NEW PEP Opinions of Others \u2026 LOTS OF LAND?Canadians have long thought of their country as one with abundant natural resources\u2014including land, forests and water.From our abundant land we have become used to abundant food.However, this theory of abundance is gradually being exploded.The demands of war have emphasized the limitations on production of food\u2014and is taking =a terrible toll of forest resources, At the same time the spring floods which are constantly becoming more prevalent, the dust storms of the Prairies, the drying up of streams except in flood time are showing us that we are misusing these resources.If proper steps are not taken, the day may be not too far eway when the problem will not be markets, but to find sufficient fertile soil to grow what is needed.Present and past generations have used the resources as if they were the sole owners\u2014with little thought to the future generations, Rather they should consider that they are holding these resources in trust for the future, and, while they have the right to use them during their lifetime, it is their duty to turn them over to their descendents in the best possible condition.In some instances\u2014such es the mines\u2014the product cannot be replaced and this means using only what is necessary.In others, such as our forest grasslands and streams, there is little reason for any great deterioration from use.Forests and grasslands reproduce themselves, if given a chance.The land if properly used, will remain quite fertile, even when farmed for extended periods.Farmers have been partly to blame in that they have often failea to use their land for the purpose to which it is best suited.The rest of the nation has been equally lax in allowing\u2014and indeed in some cases virtually forcing\u2014the misuse of the land by expecting abundant foods at very low cost.The combination of these two situations means that Canadians have been selling the birthright of future generations for à mess of present potage.This cannot continue if Canada is to become a strong and virile nation \u2014Canad- ian Statesman.BONUSES TO VEGETABLE GROWERS Announcement of the departnfent

Wednesday, April 7th, 1943 3199070000000080 * WEEK AT ¢ $ OTTAWA 3 It is a stimulating and pleasant experience in these critical hours to see parliament lay aside its rez- ular business and welcome a distinguished visitor to the floor of the House.Since the war began three statesmen of the British Commonwealth have addressed the Dominion Parliament, Mr.Menzies, then prime minister of Australia, sturdy and commanding in appearance, direct and eloquent in speech, Mr.Winston Churchill, the rallying voice of all freedom loving nations of the world, and last weck Mr.Anthony Eden, the foreign secretary of the United Kingdom and leader of the commons at Westminster.In appearance Mr.Eden is tall, spare and erect.His clothes are obviously made by a very competent tailor.In manner he is very alert and\u2019 friendly, sometimes slightly diffident and almost boyish, but he is no longer a youth, He is 46, certainly not old for one bearing his burdens, but he has mellowed into a grave mature statesman, of clear vision, impatient of subterfuge, clear, simple, direct, sincere and convincing in speech.He can jokingly deprecate the compliments paid to him as he did in the house of commons, but when he states his convictions on such truths as the absolute necessity of totally® disarming our enemies after the war is over and of preventing future generations from coming into the \u201ccruel and inhuman\u201d heritage of future wars, his voice has the ring of unalterable determination.The heart of his war creed is not to falter or fail in the drive towards complete and final victory, not to be diverted from that goal and not to underestimate the strength of the foe, Mr.Eden has left the impression here that he has shown very clearly the wisdom of his belief that it is a good thing for those who bear conversations that have taken place at Washington and Ottawa have been a tonic to the brotherhood of arms under the shadows of the world conflict.The message that Mr.Eden has left on this continent is that for the gigantic task ahead of us, \u201cWe shall need not only a close understanding between the British Commonwealth and the United States, Russia and China, but the full cooperation of all the United Nations.Together we can win the war and win the peace.\u201d An important point he made in his speech in the commons and his talk with pressmen was that the British Commonwealth which has \u201cno rigid rules or precise formulae\u201d but has the spirit of understanding can make an essential contribution to an enduring peace if the same spirit can be infused into the sphere of international relations.Senators and members seated in the body of the house and those who crowded the galleries will not soon forget Mr.Eden's glowing tributes to Canada's army in Brir- ajn which would one day be led to victory by its distinguished commander General McNaughton, to the \u201cundying achievements\u201d of the Royal Canadian Air Force and ihe \u201cglorious part\u201d played by the Royal Canadian Navy in the task of combatting the U boat meance.Meat Rationing \u2018The introduction of the coupon rationing of meat, announced by the minister

world to seek their fortunes.One boy went east, one west; both made good, but they never met again on earth.One day a piece of pottery, formed from western clay, and born nigh a thousand miles by ordinary tides of traffic, reached the old stone house.And one night beautiful flowers which had softened grief about a bier \u201cdown East\u201d were carried as a sad remembrance into the old stone house.The blossoms were placed in the earthenware bowl.So that which stood for the livelihood of the one who went west was joined with the floral insignia of the death of one who went east.* © .A man friend once asked me if I ever thought on the futility of life.His question became connected in my mind with the experience of another friend, a woman, who expressed herself, so far as I can now recall details of her talk, on this wise, \u2014 Soon after I married and was settled in my new farm home, I received a visit from a favorite nephew.He was rather tired from his trip but interested in seeing everything both inside the\u2018 house and at the barnyard.When I had shown him over the house and we got back to the kit- chén he exclaimed: \u2018This is the nicest room in \u2018the whole house!\" I was amused and a little puzzled to find that my kitchen impressed this 16-year-old boy .more than our better furnished rooms, more even than in old-fashioned parlance, our \u201cbest room\u201d.It took me a quarter of a century in that {same kitchen to realize that the boy's appraising glance had.dis: covered something of fundamental beauty which satisfied his keen sense of the artistic.For he had an artist's eye for both form and colour in the commonest things of everyday use.He once informed his mother how much prettier her apron would look if it were blue and white instead of black and white and begged her not to wear the latter.One day, long after that first visit of his, happening to sit just where he had seated himself, I understood his approving comment of my big old farm kitchen.I don't agree with the people who say that mere physical size is of no account.It is true that the most imposing man I ever met was noticeably undersized, but ib was not because of, but in spite of, his small stature.His dignity of carriage and mental poise more than made up for his lack of inches.But just the same, the giant in the circus who towers above you impresses you more than the dwarf over whom you bend your head.The loveliest hill does not awe you as does the lofty peak.Even so with a room.Apart from the mere comfort of roominess a large apartment has a dignity ail its own.Su that day I discovered a quality of graciousness in the large old-fashioned, sort of farm ki chen which was beginning to disappear from newer houses.There was also that which satisfied in proportion and balance of both the parts of the room and the plain furniture.The mantel-shelf, the built-in cupboards and even the wood-box fitted into a picture not unpleasing.Then I wondered if somebody else later on might fail to see, as I had myself for so long failed to notice, how there was something very attractive in the relative positions of the window and table.And then the thought that perhaps soon, quite soon by some ciraum- stance \u2014 whether of life or death \u2014 I should have to say good-bye to my old kitchen, with which I had just begun really to get properly acquainted, brought a few brimy tears to the brink of feeling's overflow.And then I understood something of our races experience which before I had just touched the surface of, I understood how those wretched Peruzzites, Jebu- sites, Girgashites, etc, etc.whom I had always considered a pretty bad lot, felt when Joshua and the Israelites \u2018drove them out\u201d and possessed themselves

company under the terms of His agreement that he required mure payment for the work done, or he wished to release the job.No agreement was forthcoming, therefore he discontinued the delivery of the

was resumed on Tuesday.A New Series of Advertisements We would like to call the attention of our readers to a new series of advertisements sponsored by the Shawinigan Water & Power Co.the first of

Around BY LORNE BARNEWALL V.B.P.As a result of the reviving of the once active Fox Patrol, the consensus of opinion seems to be that a keener competitive spirit has been realized.Every member of the troop agrees that this is the best thing that could happen to the group in some months.Since the inauguration of the latest patrol two weeks ago, and a new competition of points started, the patrols are pretty close to one another.The Stags are at the top of the ladder at the present time with 19 points, closely followed by Wolf with 18, while the Foxes hold 17, and the Beavers trailing with 16.You certainly can hand it to Patrol Leader Stewart Beattie, who has put his team well in the running, having only just started.I hope that everything will soon be all right at home Stewart.+ The

in nearly all the competitions, their progress has been on an encouraging incline recently.Interviews with Patrol Leaders George Goodfellow, Stewart - Beattie, and Jimmy Bickford, of the Wolf, Fox, and Beaver Patrols respectively, they ventured to allow me to quote them as saying the Stag Patrol will have to fight hard to keep up there at the top of this season\u2019s competition, for they intend to give each other a good run for the top honours of the year.Since the four groups are pretty well evenly matched now, the months to follow should produce some really worthwhile, and notable

1841, the earn- \u2018mes per Common share were $13.49.The decline was due to higher taxes.Operating profit was higher, at $2,063,919, compared with $1,868,- 080 in the previous year.The tax liability for 1942 is $1,627,000, up from $1,280,000 so provided in 1941.Transfers to reserve for the latest year are $50,000 for pensions and $42,697 for bond sinking fund.Preferred dividend required $210,000, es in former years.The surplus forward is $64,641, to which is added $75,000 of tax provision not required \"1.Shows Good Year Profit Down From 1941 Due to G.B.Gordon, President, Gives Higher

investments, mainly government bonds, of $1,474,983.The refundable portion of the excess profits tax is treated as a deferred asset and is offset by a deferred siur- plus of the same amount,

moderate amount of $234,123, The company will this year have accumulated sufficient sinking fund to retire the outstanding bonds of the Montreal Cotton Company.These now amount to $344,068, compared

capacity,\u201d says the report which is signed by G.B.Gordon, President.The report continues in part.\u201cThe only limitation on produc- ! tion has been the difficulty of obtaining and retaining a complete working force.Our employees have not been immune from the tendency towards absenteeism and slackening of effort which accompanies increased hourly earnings, but on the whole have shown a very creditable apph- cation to their duties.\u201d \u201cAll goods produced for civilian purposes were sold at ceiling prices.Fortunately, we enjoyed the benefit, curing the greater part of the year, of using cotton bought at much lower prices than prevailed on the average over 1942.We were thereby enabled to complete the year without obtaining any restitution by way of subsidy on our raw cotton: purchases, The situation from this point onward cannot help but be a very different one as the raw cotton content cost of our yarns and cloths is now very close to the ceiling \u2018prices at which the goods must be sold in many instances, We have entered into an agreement with the Commodity Prices Stabilization Corporation Limited whereby we are entitled to adjustment payments, if necessary, before the end of 1943.Under such circumstances, we cannot expect to exceed 116-2/3% of Standard Profits before payment of Income Taxes.We can be reasonably certain of attaining that mark, which will leave us with 70% of our Standard Profits available for dividend purposes after Income Taxes have been paid.This is sufficient to cover our dividend requirements at current levels.\u201cThe very substantial quantities of fabrics produced and delivered for war purposes have been found up to specification by Government Inspectors and have filled a necessary place in our country\u2019s wartime effort.Prices and costs on completed Government contracts have been audited and any adjustments called for have been given effect to in the Company's accounts.\u201cThis review would not.be complete without our remarking on the very fine work done by the members of the administrative and supervisory staffs during the past year.Salary controls and restrictions preclude them from joining in the
