equipment of the Huntingdon Fire Dept.and ready to cope with any or all fires that may occur.On the side seen above will be noticed the con- Dr.M.R.Stalker Addresses Huntingdon Rotary Club Outlines Rural Medicine and Life of the General Practitioner The members of the Huntindon Rotary Club were favored by a very interesting address given by Dr.MR.Stalker, of Ormstdwn, at their luncheon meeting on Monday.The speaker was introduced by Mr.Gilbert McMillan and thanked by Mr.L.Levine.Dr.Stalker's address follows and it will be found that it carries much of interest to the professional and the layman alike.Mr.Chairman and Gentlemen: When I received the invitation from Mr.McMillan to speak to you I felt that if you so wished, that it was my duty to endeavour to respond, chiefly because of the great interest that the local Rotary Club has shown in the General Medical service of our citizens.In choosing the subject of Rural Medicine and the General Practitioner, I would like you to know that it is altogether in the general Canadian sense that I wish to speak, and not in respect to the District of Beauharnois except as we are part of the whole Canadian picture.For purpose of illustration I may employ a few local experiences but that is only because the same situation would exist throughout the whole country.I would like to say however, that it has heen my privilege to visit various parts of Canada from Coast to Coast and also to have visited parts of the United States and Britain and always my chief interest has been to examine with a critical - eye the type of rural medical service in those localities.It is my honest belief that in the District of Beauharnois we have as high, if not a higher standard of medical servi®e as anywhere else, and that also we have a most cooperative ethical, honest group of medical practitioners throughout this whole district.I wonder if you, and the lay population are really aware of how serious the problem of rural medical care has become.Âre you aware of the fact that we as rural citizens are being rapidly depleted of medical personnel both in quantity and in quality.I wish that you might endeavour to visualize the situation if all of our rural areas were without medical service and had to depend entirely upon the cities for medical attention.I do not expect that you could quite comprehend ~.the chaos that would develop » ° \u2026 + ward .are 4 within a few days.Yet in degree, that is slowly year by year and decade by decadg coming about, and 1t is only during the last few years in the more remote rural areas that we are beginning to seriously complain.Statistics are very misleading but the general picture reveals that the physician population ratio varies inversely to the population.In seven of the largest Canadian \u201ccities which contain 28% of the population, 46% of the physitians practice.As you can .understand this does not give a true picture, for small cities of 10,000 and up- fairly well supplied.su that purely rural areas are ex- Huntingdon\u2019s New Fire Truck Arrived the Past Week Demonstrations Have trols for regulating the amount of water and force going through the hose.On this side two lines of hose can be run.On the rack at the side can be seen the two lengths of suction hose used to draw water from tremely poorly supplied.Finally, an area such as we lve in, because of its proximity to the largest metropolis, and in a comparatively rich farming country, is much better off than many other rural areas.It is this subject that I would wish to discuss and analyze with you to see if wè can understand why it has come about, what effect it has had, and also is having upon our citizens and those who render the service, and finally to consider what remedies might be considered possible, First of all 1s it not strange considering the improvement in living conditions in rural areas, improvement of roads and transportation facilities, and all the general improvements of living in our small towns compared with say fifty years ago, that this situation should be as it is.Therefore, at the very beginning, we can discard general living conditions as having any part in this problem.I believe that the great cause for this development can best be summarised under the term \u201cSpecialist Attitude\u201d.During the past century tremendous advances have been made in medicine.The general result in all of these advances has been the lengthening of the average life span by at least 20 years since the turn of the Century.These advances to mention only very few, such as the discovery of anaesthesia.the discovery of bacteria and that of Aseptic surgery, the and the development of X-ray and radium, the discovery of specific drugs and sera etc, for various diseases.These discoveries have each and every one brought with them innumerable technical improvements.The result is naturally inevitable.The practitioner of old with his buggy and drug case, was able to do comparatively a very good job compared to his city confrere.This has become impossible any more.The practitioner even discovery | +\" à river or other accessible water supply.Water can also be taken from the hydrants and the pump used to give more pressure.On the rack above the truck is the metal extension ladder.School Honor Roll Unveiling May 23rd The Honor Roll Plaque at Hun- tingdon High School has been installed and will be unveiled [on Sunday, May 23rd, according to announcement made by the committee in charge of the arrangements.The committee is now working on a suitable programme and when details of this have been worked out, the particulars will be published in these columns, It 1s felt that this date is the most suitable to the general public as it will enable those from a distance to attend and it is expected that there will be many former students and Interested out-of-town parties who will want to be present.The Plaque is a beautiful piece or work in solid bronze and is a very fitting tribute to those from Huntingdon High School who went forth to serve their country.with continuous study for his whole lifetime is unable to master but only\u2019 a part of the whole medical knowledge.The result has been the dividing of medicine into a large number of branches or specialties.This has resulted in an inevitable train of events.The teachers in our universities of to-day are all specialists.In my student days nearly all of the men who were my teachers, only to mention a few that you might know of such as Drs.Geo.Armstrong, John Elder, A.T.Scouting is due for a bit of forward advancement throughout the District of Beauharnois.In recent years Scouting has actually been at a low ebb, due largely to the lack of leadership.Mr.Richard Corkran, Manager of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, Ormstown, was made District Commissioner last year and Bazin, and A.H.Gordon were all men who had been practitioners and later had specialized.The resuit was that they left the attitude in the mind of the student that general practice was a good thing.Not so to-day.The attitude is that only specialism is possible.Also what has been the effect upon the medical course of training.Fifty years ago the physician received his license to practice in from 3 to 4 years from High School.To-day the extreme minimum is at (Continued on page 3) Been Held\u2014Government Inspector Made Test on Tuesday A number of people were aroused on Thursday night when the siren sounded nt the Fire .Hall and the fire truck wns heard and seen going around lown.However, there was no fire, ii was the arrival of the handsome new fire truck which had just been delivered and the officinls gere anxious to announce lis ar- val.On Friday afternoon a demonstration was glvon as an ald to the fire fighters Lo become ac- uainted with the new uip- rent while the enginoers from he Thibeault Company were here.Fire Chief Vallee and all the firemen were out and the truck was taken to several different spots to enable all to become familiar with the workings of the machine.A demonstra- \u2018tion took place a the Athel- 4 stan Pact ite The home of

Two; ladders of , One a 35 foot now we are pleased to announce that Dr.George C.Fisher, Ormstown, has been appointed the District Scout Master.Scout Troops are to be found in operation at Chateauguay Basin, Beauharnois, Ormstown.At Hem- mingford the Rev.Mr.Bennett is getting a Boy Scout Troop to become an active reality and likewise is Stan Liversidge, Recreational Director in Huntingdon.Mr.Liversidge has had the Cubs going afong for a year but NEW FIRE 5 A long and lively session of the Huntingdon Town Council was held at the County Building, on Monday evening when the regular monthly meeting of that body was held.All members were present and Mayor A.C.H.Picard presided.Minutes ot the previous meeting were read and approved.Mr.O.Bonneville appeared before the Council to ask for a street light on Cemetery 8t., and two requests were made for sidewalks and improvement of West Street.A complaint was read from Mr.Levine to the effect that cars were being parked down the centre of Chateauguay Street by the Bank of Commerce and preventing trucks from entering the driveway to Mr, Levine's Feed Store.The Council promised to check on the matter and have a passage left.John Riel & Son Reg'd.were given the contract to pick up the garbage in town, to be in force for one year.Huntingdon Realties asked the Town for fire protection of their property on the Barracks site, through Mr.P.Langevin.The council promised that the water would be turned on subject to a resolution passed a few months ago.Two milk reports were read as follows: March 2nd\u2014Elmhurst Dairies, 56,00 cc; Pringle Bros, 490,000 ce, R.Goodfellow, 4,900 cc.March 16th\u2014EImhurst Dairies, 30,000 cc; J.Galipeau, 36,000 cc; Pringle Bros., 220,000 cc; R.Goodfellow, 8,000.In view of the high bacteria of some of the milk Alderman Collum asked what was done to have this checked as it seemed that a check should be made.It was decided that the Health Dept.should be notified to have a check made.The Huntingdon Branch Cana- dlan Legion made a request to hold a street dance as usual on July lat, The request was granted.The contract for taking over the water mains, water meters and sewers at the barracks by the town was read and approved and signed Dr.Geo.C.Fisher Appointed District Scoutmaster Greater Interest Being Shown in Scouting Movement Throughout Area un older group of gs are being organized and that all augurs well for the Scout Mgvement within this District.Dr.George C.Fisher, Veterinary \u2018Surgeon, is a comparatively newcomer to the Chateauguay Valley.He is a brother of Mr.John Fisher, the C.B.C: commentator who officially opened the Ormstown Exhihi- tion in 1947.Dr.Fisher is a native of Sackville, NB, and son of F.A.Fisher, President of Enterprise Stove Foundry Co.Ltd.He attended Mount Allison University before entering Ontario Veterinary College, graduating from the University of Toronto in 1843 with the degree DV.M., V8.4 He spent three years in the R.C.- N.V.R.with the rank of Lieutenant.Spent a year with UNRRA transporting horses from U.8.A.to Greece, Poland and Czechoslovakia.In the course of this part of his life he assisted in the transporting of over 5,- 000 across the Atlantic, Dr.Fisher is no novice in Bcouting for in 1928 he joined the Scouts in Sackville, N.B., working his way up to become a King Scout, then Bushman's Thong, being one of the first to obtain this honor in the history of Scouting in New Brunswick.He was also one of the 16 Canadian Scouts attending the 5th International Boy Scout Jamboree in Holland in 1937.Dr.Fisher also managed a Scout troop in Sackville for three years and was active in Ecouting in How- ick and Guelph before locating in Ormstown.With Dr.Pisher now being named District Scout Master for this area, we quite belleve the choice has been wisely made and that with his Scouting background, such will go a long way toward stimulating Boy Scout work in this community.OROUGH > Fire Equipment Not To Be Sent Beyond Town Limits No More Water or Sewer Connections For Property Owners Outside of Town by the Mayor.The contract for sewer on the Lord Atholstan Estate at a cost of $100 per annum was also read and approved.The Bell Telephone Co.asked permission to erect and change poles and to trim trees in town.This was granted.The Minister at Quebec has O.K'd the amendment to the Daylight Saving by-law.Amendments were read to the Parking By-law by which Chateau- guay Street from the Bank of Commerce to McCoy's comer will be a one-way street and only 60-minute parking will be allowed.This {a not yet in force although the amendments have had the required readings and been passed.Water tax and other taxes such as rubbish, dog and 50 forth are to be collected forthwith.Many of these are in arrears and a determined effort is to be made to collect these and they will be payable at the office of the secrclary.Bills for these will be mailed out this week and a notice will be published in the Gleaner to this effect.A resolution was passed to borrow $15,000 for municipal purposes as needed and until current taxes aro collected.There was some discussion as to which bank the loan would be taken from and It was finally decided that the Bank of Commerce was doing the business and it should be borrowed from that bank.Reports from Committées brought forth a lively discussion on wuter rates.It was decided to remove one of the water meters at the barracks and to Install one at the Woollen Mills at an early date.The question of a higher rate for water to non ros- dents of Huntingdon was suggested and it was stated that a higher rate could not We charged to rcal- dential properties.The discussion then centred on supplying water and making connections to persons owning property not within the town, but bordering thercon.It was felt that insufficient revenue was obtained by people securing water connections and paying only $25.00 per year, while the taxes on the property were going to another municipality, and if the amount could not he ralsed then no future connections wtll he supplied.Thus, anyone bullding on the outside Min- its of the town in the future will J not he able to obtain any services from the town, A delegation walted upon the Council to ask the town to annex the property along Church Street which Is presently situated in the Godmanchester municipality.They wished to bhulld on the property and vaunted Lo be able Lo obtain water and sewer und fire protection.The Council informed the dulega- tion they would welcome them with open arms if they wanted Lo come into the town, but they should acek legal advice us to the proper procedure to tuke to have their properties annexed to Huntingdon, In the meantime the town would not connect their properties to town sewers or water mains, or give fire protection.Mr.Fred Langevin for Hunting- don Realties was also advised to seek advice re annexation to the Town of Huntingdon regarding the properties at the Barracks.These properties are now a part of the Municipality of Hinchinbrook.He sald he would be glad to have this property form a part of Huntingdon and would do what he could to bring this about.A complaint was made by Alderman Baumier regarding the sewer which empties into the river on Chateauguay Street.He complained that it was damaged and there 1a a stench from this sewer that should be corrected.It was decided to investigate the matter and to order the pipe required to correct it.The Police Committee is to order two forms, ons for each of the Town Constables.The old question of the fire equipment going beyond the limits of the town was again brought up as the Mayor stated he had given the order for the new truck tn go out tp a fire at Wm.Hughes farm, on Saturday afternoon, He explained that he (Continued on page 10) Purse Snatching Incident Much has been sald about the urse snatching incident that k place in town recently.For the benefit of the genoral public it can be said that the incident is being thoroughly investigated and good leads as to the culprit ar culprits are in the hands of Chief Vallee and are being followed up by him.While no arrests have been made as yet, it is hoped that this will be case very soon.Publishers Guests of Molson\u2019s Historic Brewery Viewed Following Publishers \u201cPow-wow\u201d With no ultimate significance in

historic walls of the room were to be found a groat number of maps of Montreal, showing what Montreal constituted at various timos in ita era.Paintings appropriate for such a historic room adorned tho walla and also a circular that advertised the bout freight ratos in the early dnys of the corporation; and such was seb out in pounds, shillings and pence.It was my first visit to a brewery, so

Church Marks 100th Year of Service NE hundred vears is a Jong time, but in O church or religious life this is not so long, {for religion is nearly 2,000 years old, as we know today.Religion or Christian thinking is based on the teachings of Christ and according to the New Testament, but actually religion is much older than this, as the Old Testament goes back to the beginning of mankind.It was after Christ died on the Cross that disciples went out to tell about His teachings and the so-called Christian era began.Christianity has outlived any other form of teaching and the church today is the outcome of such teaching.Thus we may say that in Christian belief, 100 years is not a long time.But 100 years in the life of man is a long time, only a few live that long.But material things do Jast that length of time and longer.Thus it is the people of Riverfield and English River are going to observe the Centennial Anniversary of Riverfield Prebyterian Church, this Sunday, April 11th.It is not likely that any of thegpriginal congregation are alive, but their descendents will be and it is they who will observe this anniversary of founding, 100 years ago.The seed of faith has been implanted by the forefathers and carried on by the children and unto the third and fourth generation.\u2018That is how Christianity is carried on and why churches can observe such anniversaries as will be observed at Riverfield, this Sunday.It is y/rticularly fitting at this time that congregations wherever they be, consider the lifetime of their church and how it first began.There are those in the world today who would claim such things as worthless and unnecessary and herein lies a danger that churches may not seem so important as they once were.In fact among the vounger people there is a tendency to think more lightly of the church.Thus it is that this anniversary will provide an opportunity for the people of Riverfield to gather together for the observance of the centennial of their church and to go over the history of it.They will know that it is still a solid foundation in the civilized world and that it provides a medium of solace to all at some time during their lives.% % $& + Modern Machinery Best BRITISH industrialist, Lord Barnby, who A recently inspected textile plants in this bait to make other purchases, then the dairy farmer, the wholesaler and the retailer should be ir possession of the facts as to how this is being done.It is their duty to seek inquiry into the matter to further safeguard thélr interests and to further arguments as to the ban on margarine.The time is now that the big debate on the margarine question is coming before the Members of Parliament, the public is already incensed at the shortage of butter and now the announcement that jewellers and druggists are giving butter away as a premium.There never was & time when the argument against lifting the ban on margarine had so little to stand on.The present production cannot supply the demand and people are going short in a time of peace, something that never happened during six years of war.Yet certain people are able to supply butter as & premium.They are not asking black market prices tor the product, but are giving it away when it is supposedly hard to obtain through the regular channels.If the producer allows this to pass without effort to obtain an explanation, he has weakened his own case against retaining the ban in protection of his product.In speaking with a city dweller, who was acquainted with the premium offer that was made, Le was up in arms against the ban on margarine.He believed that it should be allowed to be made or imported into the country so that people could at least obtain something in the way of a spread.He had been without butter for his bread for some time and was pretty well fed up with the idea.He said he did not want margarine in preference to butter, but felt that no harm would be done if margarine was available as it was in other countries.He felt that the sales of butter would not be greatly affected as the people in this country were butter conscious and preferred the real thing to a substitute.But if the supply could not fill the demand, then the people should have the use of the substitute whenever they felt like it.For stores not even in the business to be able to offer such a scarce commodity as a premium was a disgrace to the producer and to the government.There are hundreds of opinions on the subject «nd many have appeared in the press of late, Had the supply kept up and people could ndve obtained butter steadily as they wanted it, it likely that the outcry for margarine would never have been raised.The question is how soon can this supply question be overcome and once it is overcome, can 1* be maintained under present conditions or will the same thing occur again?We do not believe that people really want margarine if they can obtain butter, and at a reasonable price.To have it offered as a premium is belittling the shortage situation and making the public believe that there is something more behind it than just a shortage.% % % ¥ How Much Social Security?WO years ago the Dominion Government was engaged in selling the nation a great programme of social security, to include universal health insurance and a lot of other very attractive ideas.Premier Drew of Ontario and Premier Du- plessis of Quebec took exception, not to the idea of a social security programme, but to the nature of the financial arrangements between the Dominion and the Provinces which were suggested.In the end, the Dominion Government's proposals were accepted by the other seven Provinces, but the great social security programme Was and that also needed goods for Europe may mean less for the people here.The time is so short that supplies will be snapped up from available stocks without waiting for \u201cnew goods to be manufactured and this may cause shortages to appear as they did in wartime.But if they have the effect of turning the present tide of Communism, no one will mind a little inconvenience any more than they did during the war.On the other hand there is stiff opposition to the Marshall Plan on the part of Russia and we have not noticed any steadying or stepping of plans decided upon by Russia.In fact in the past week incidents have taken place that have tended ct make conditions more uncomfortable, although at the moment they seem to have ended satisfactorily and to have given the United States and Britain a victory over Russia.Such should not be too hopefully viewed however, as they may be a cover up for other more vital incidents that are yet in the background.Russia has such peculiar ways of doing things that every move must- be watched and caution exercised.Recently Russia demanded that freight and passenger trains from the- American Zone into and out of the Russian zone at Berlin, be searched by Russian military police.The United States officials immediately took steps to tell the Russians that they would not stand for such interference\u2019 and posted armed guards upon the trains and at the offices through which the trains would pass.This apparently had the effect of causing the Russians to back down and they have withdrawn.Such a course of action may have heen improvised on the part of the Russians to check on any Marshall Plan supplies that would be moving into Germany and other parts named to receive such aid.Pressure Is being brought to bear in the States to have young men drafted and trained and to bring all equipment up to date in readiness for any emergency.While troops do not ft into the Marshall Plan, it may so happen that they will have to be used if the Russians decide not to accept The untingdon

Hun- tingdon County Hospital will take place, and na April 14th, the annual meeting of the Barrie Memorial Hospital wili take place.Both these hospitals have a large membership and it is for the benefit of the membership that annual meetings are held in order that they may know what has been done during the year.It also provides the opportunity to ask the questions that have arisen during the year in the minds of the various members and to hear the financial standing of the institution to which they have contributed.Unfortunately, these meetings are \u2018 usually ignored by a greater part of the membership and only a handful of people are present or interested in attending.This is wrong and not at all what the Boards of Governors of these hospitals desire.There is not much satisfaction in presenting facts to themselves, they are acquainted with them at all times.They are interested in knowing if the general membership approves of the actions that the Board has taken and the way it has handled | the money entrusted to its kare.They also wish to know if there is anything in the minds of the members as to improvement in services and facilities.It is of no use going out and talking about - what should, or should not be done; the place to do this is at the meetings arranged for the purpose.It is therefore urged that all members take notice of this article and make an effort to attend the meeting of the hospital to which they belong, on the dates given.In this way all will have a better idea of what has been done and what it is proposed to do, how the money is spent and what Money is needed to carry on.Keep the date in mind and plan to atlend the annual meeting of the hospital of which you are a member.The Board needs your support, interest and encouragement as well as the Chateauguay Valley needs these hospitals.end guests of Mr.and Mrs.Albert Ness.Miss June McGerrigle spent a few days the past week with her friend, Miss Audrey Yule, St.Lambert.The Tatehurst

brought to Canada and put into operation.Although apparently simple, Lord Barnby's solution may not be the right answer to relieving current shortages or improving the future position of the Canadian industry.Much of Britian\u2019s textile machinery is old.so old in fact that it is causing considerable concern among those who are planning that country's industrial recovery.Such machinery would hardly be welcome in Canadian plants which pride themselves on the efficiency of their equipment and are spending millions in further modernization.Installation is another stumbling block in the way of the Barnby plan.Machinery must have floor space, and in many mills this would require additional construction.This alone might retard production for two years.Canadian textile workers are among the highest paid workers in the world in this industry.To offset this cost factor Canadian mills tend to buy the most modern machines available.In many cases machines of American design are more suitable than the British counterpart in maintaining the highest rate of production per man hour.For these reasons it is probably better that the Canadian industry continue to build and modernize along lines well adapted to the character.of the country, rather than embark on a policy of exped- fency in order to relieve some transitory shortages.* % % % Exploiting a Scarce Commodity UCH these days is being said on the question of Butter and Margarine and housewives are searching dally each of the stores in a quest for the scarce commodity, butter.Stores have instituted a rationing system of their own and limiting their regular customers to a half pound each of this precious spread.Those customers who just drop into a store for butter and are not considered on the regulûr list, are not supplied from the small stock on hand, but are refused, so tight is the situation.It was no wonder then when announcement vas made last week that jewelry stores and drug stores in Montreal were offering butter as a premium on the purchase of so much worth of goods, that housewives were up in arms.Here was a scarce commodity being offered as a premium.If it 18 so scarce, then how did these people obtain it and were able to offer\u201dit as a premium to help the sale of their goods, when legitimate retailers were not being supplied in sufficient quantity for their customers?These merchants were not asking the people to pay for the butter, they were giving it to them as a premium, just like other premiums are offered.Exploitation of a scarce commodity when people were scrambling over each other in order to obtain even a half-pound and even going without.Something must be wrong with the distribution system, or someone was hiding stocks that should be on the regular market, It is not likely that the merchants using this premium idea -will hold favour with the general public and there is no doubt that an \u20acnquiry into the matter should be demanded.The Dairy interests should be vitally interest- od in this premium offer a¥ it works against their demand that butter should be protected to safeguard their welfare, II ibis precious spread is ben ing withheld from the public to be supplied as it dropped\u2014at least for the time being.Now, Hon.Brooke Claxton says that the greatest support of Communist ideas comes from those who promise an impossible degree of social security.since this leads to failure to deliver and that to discontent.Does this mean that the Dominion Government now feels that its great promises were a mistake, and that social security expenditures, including the Baby Bonus, are already large enough, or too large?The Soclalist Government in Saskatchewan seems to have undergone a similar attack of caution.They promised universal free hospital care, in return for a tax of $5 per head per annum.Now they are telling the public that it was never intended to take over all the hospitals supported by private benevolence, which Sounds a lot like backing up.In addition, the Provincial Treasurer warns the people of the Province that new sources of taxation may have to be tapped to keep existing social security measures in operation.Does it all mean that the bright promises of two vears ago were just a mirage?How much social security are the politicians now promising?Will they beeable to keep their promises?What about coming clean, and telling the public frankly whether the great promises still stand?And, if so, why the present hedging?Can it be that the promises were too big?It seems likely.» 4% % ¥ Marshall Plan Ready For Action INCE it became so obvious that Russia was determined to force her Communism upon all nations who would accept it and offer no resistance, speed has become a factor in rushing ald to those countries who are still outside the realm of Russian control.The pending election in Italy this month which is only ten days away, has had much .to do with the rush to get the Marshall Plan into action.The necessary papers and, signing instruments have now been completed and it is proposed to have supplies moving to the needi- cst countries within a week or ten days.The procedure from here on would seem to be one of rropaganda before the election takes place.That is that the Italian people must be advised in every possible way that relief and aid from the United States is actually on its way to them.If this is not attended to, it may be still too late to have the effect that is wanted\u2014that of keeping the Communists from winning the election.Prance, Italy and Austria seem to be the key countries and the most in need at the moment; because they are potential to the influx of Communist ideas, If the Communists succeed in gaining congrol in Italy, than it is considered they will © turn to assuming control in Prance and Austria.It is hoped that the Marshall Plan will frustrate the Communistic efforts and thus save these countries from the Russian clutches.On the other hand more may be needed than just supplies and arms and troops may have to be included in the plan.Meanwhile the announcement that the plan is now in action has caused much'speculation in Canada as to a greater volume of business for manufacturers here and more States dollars to - alleviate the present shortage.It is thus that Canada may experiences another boom in business Club Holds Closing Banquet ORMSTOWN\u2014About 40 members of the Ormstown Curling Club met at the rink on Wednesday evening, March 31st, for the annual meeting.After a sumptuous banquet prepared by Mr, J.McAllister and

Law, an ordained missionary from the US.A, and a seceder, began work among the settlers on the English River, and in 1845 a small frame church was erected on a piece of ground donated by James Houston on Lot 94.In November, 1846, the Rev.James Fettes arrived from Scotland in the interests of the Free Church, and it was under his ministry that the congregation was regularly organized.On March 16th, 1848, two petitions were presented to the Presbytery of Montreal of the Presbyterian Church of Canada from North Georgetown and English River asking that they be regularly organized into congregations.With sanction of Presbytery Mr.Fettes proceeded to carry out the work of organization and on May 4th, 1848, presented the Communion Roll of North Georgetown with 87 names thereon, and a similar roll with 30 names for English River.These were received and approved by the assessors of Presbytery who instructed the congregation to proceed with the election of office bearers.Accordingly on August 24th, 1848, at English River, Messrs.Daniel McGregor, John Muir and | Moses Douglas were ordained as elders, and Messrs, James Carmichacl, James Houston, Thomas Gebbie and John Millar were ordained as Deacons.In the succeeding years the English River congregation grew in strength, and it was under the ministry of the Rev.C.M.MacKeracher in 1869 that the foundation stone of the present church building was laid.The Church Hall was added in 1922 when the Rev.R.L.Ballan- tyne, B.A., was minister for the second time.The present Manse was built in 1897 and during 1946 it was extensively renovated and redecorated.On May 25th, 1947, a new electric organ Was dedicated as a Memorial to those who died in the Second World War, Two new elders, Messrs.R.Wallace Cralg and Aylmer Brown were ordained in November, 1947.The other members of the Session are Messrs.Chester W.Orr, clerk, John Carmichael, William Rorison, Matthew Orr, and Archie Cralg our senior elder, who can recollect a few things that happened in the 1850s.The present minister, the Rev.William C.McBride, B.A., was called {rom the Canadian Chaplain Service and inducted in August, 1946.Former Ministers The first religious

Canadian National Railways, when on Tuesday of the past week he was retired on pension after 45 years and two months with the company.It also happened that Tuesday was Mr.Cairns\u2019 birthday and he was 65 years of age on that day.He stated to a Gleaner reporter on Thursday, that he asked to be retained in the service for a few years longer as he still feels like carrying on.The superintendent said he would like to grant the request as Mr.Cairns was a faithful servant, but the rules of the company did not allow it.But Mr.Calrns will not be without some responsibilities, for he is also the Postmaster for Brysonville and has WM.D.CAIRNS held this position for the same length of time as he has been caretaker and agent at the C.N.R.Station of Bryson\u2019s, and he intends to retain this position.He also states that he will take a short holiday for a while and then he will probably fill in a few hours by working around at various jobs.Mr.Cairns was born about two miles from Brysonville and went to school in Ormstown.He left home when he was about 16 years of age and worked for Mr.Frank Dunning, when he was building the store at Brysonville and later helped as clerk in the store until he was 17 years of age.Mr.Dunning at that time was the agent at the station and Mr.Cairns often helped in his work there.By this means he got to know the duties and when Mr.Dunning retired he took over the duties himself.This was on January 26th, 1903, and he has been attending to the work ever since until his recent retirement.He also took over the Post Office at this time and in the year 1935 he received the Silver Jubilee Medal from His Majesty King George V, on the occasion of Their Majesties\u2019 Silver Jubilee on May 6th, 1835.The medal was awarded in recognition of having over 30 years service in the civil service and still being on duty.Mr.Cairns has been married twice and both his wives have passed away and he is living alone at Bryson- ville.His second wife died five years ago.He has three sons, Ivan at Montreal, Burton at Vancouver and Wesley at Aubrey, Que., nearby.All are married.Two of the boys served in the R.C.AF.during the last war, Burton and Wesley.Wesley was overseas for twenty-five months.The duties at _the C.N.R.Station have now been Taken over by Mr.Cairns\u2019 nephew, Selkirk Bryson, who received the appointment as caretaker.He was formerly with the R.C.AAF.and operates the store at Brysonville.Mr.Cairns is quite proud of a letter he received on the evening of his retirement from his superintendent at Montreal, A.M.Shea.In the letter, Mr.Shea expressed ap- preclation for the many years of faithful service with the company and the hope that Mr.Cairns would Rockburn, the past week and also visited friends in Huntingdon, Miss Doris Stevenson, of Hun- tingdon, visited friends here recently.Mr.and Mrs.John Wilson, of Watertown, Mr.Jas.Wilson, of Huntingdon, and Mr.Arnold Wilson, of Sorel, were recent guests at the Wilson

that fire and also the one on Chateauguay Street and also to make arrangement for future fires, but obtained no satisfaction.He thus felt that in the future no fires outside the town limits would be attended unless payment is guaranteed.Alderman Galipeau was of the opinion that the new equipment should not leave the town at all and Alderman McWhinnie was of the same opinion.The suggestion was made that in case of fires outside the town limits a form of guarantee should be drawn up stating that the owner of the property or the person calling the equipment, should sign to guarantee all expenses before any of the equipment is used or the fire would be left to burn.Other suggestions were made that the individual be responsible to make payment for fire protection and that persons living on the outskirts of town and desiring protection should pay an initial fee of $25.00 and an annual fee thereafter of $5.00 and also sign an agreement to pay all other expenses that may be Incurred if a fire is fought in the district.After much discussion it was de- ded that the fire equipment would not be sent beyond the town limits to fight any fire outside those limits.In the \u2018case of the Hughes Farm fire a charge of $25.00 is to be made and to be collected from the person on that property.A question was asked as to what would happen if some property near .to town, but outside the limit was to catch fire, would the equipment be sent.The answer was no, it would have to burn down as far as the Town equipment 1s concerned as the Council cannot spend the ratepayers money fighting fires for which no taxes have been paid to the Town.The Mayor sald if these people want to have the protection that the town can give and the water that it can supply, then PAINKILLER »

hooking up to hydrants or drawing from the river, or it can be used while this hookup is taking place so that time is saved.Two hoses can be hooked on to one side fi the pump and one on the other side, so that three lines of hose can be brought into play if needed.The ump will pump up to 600 galons per minute.Also as part of the equipment is a small hose that is used in conjunction with the tank on the truck and attached to a reel at the rear of the truck.There are several types of extinguishers included and these have their special positions in the truck.There are wall hooks, axes, crowbars, etc.On both sides are spaces to carry the required amount of hose.About another three thousand feet of hose is on order and should arrive in a very short time.This will leave the large truck fully loaded at all times and there will be about 700 feet of hose left on the old truck.On Tuesday afternoon the apparatus was put through its paces in a test for the Government inspector from the Fire Commissioner's Office of the Provincial Government.The equipment was run for three hours steady doing steady pumping and other change-overs.This took place at the Dam in town.The Provincial Government grants the Town 50% of the cost of new equipment such as this The inspector was Mr, Ed.Gou- dette and Mr.Joe Forget of the Pierre Thibault Co.was also on hand.The truck was purchased from the Thibault Co.Mr.Gou dette was very pleased with the performance of the machine, From what has been seen of the action of the equipment, it would seem that Huntingdon is now well equipped in respect to fire fighting and that this equipment should do much to keep insurance rates at a low level Those who have not yet seen the new equipment, should drop around to the Fire Hall and see it.let them annex their properties to the Town of Huntingdon and enjoy the privileges as ratepayers of Huntingdon.This would give them sidewalks, lighting, police protection and all that the town ratepayers enjoy and for which they pay taxes to the town.Therefore under present rulings the fire equipment will not leave town.Alderman Galipeau was named pro-Mayor for the next three months.Messrs.Neil O'Hare,
