EIGHT PAGES Mother and Son Held in Death of Covey Hill Man Chateauguay Valley Has À Further Tas te of Winter Severe Storm the Past Week Disruots Traffic And Communications The Chateauguay Valley had a further taste of real Canadian winter the last week.Wednesday was mild with a heavy rain in the afternoon, turning to snow later at night.The streets in Huntingdon -on Wednesday afternoon were reminiscent of the canals of Venice.Thursday produced the worst storm of the winter.Provincial Transport buses to and from Montreal were cancelled, roads were almost impassable.One of two taxi drivers motoring between Ormstown and Huntingdon braved the storm and a truck tranpsort was known to have made the trip from Montreal to Cornwall to Malone, Nevertheless, visibility was poor and more than one car was found abandoned after a futile attempt to buck the heavily drifting snow on the highway.The school buses for the most part were not operating.To add to the confusion the Telephone Company reported that 178 separate .services were required to keep telephones in operation throughout the valley.A dozen or so poles were blown down in the area of Route 52, but, on the whole, the trouble with the telephone lines was due to the dampness of the preceding day with rain water geeping through the insulation, causing a multitude of short cir- -cuits.Part of the Athelstan Road was under water; traffic was cut to a minimum and the mail service was suspended in the morning.Similar conditions prevailed at St.Philo- mene.On Friday, roads were blocked at all points with traffic delayed as much as seven hours on highway number four.There were no buses in either direttion.Of 13 long- distance telephone lines, only three were available on that day making out-of-town calls virtually impossible, Pranklin also had its share of the storm.Water backed up from the ditches, overflowed the road and and one of the school buses to be delayed.Horses and sleighs had to be used for transportation.To make matters worse one of the snow plows broke an axle.Electricity failed at several points and was responsible for at least one rural school being closed for two days.Some telephone lines were reported to be out of commission.Residents of Franklin and the entire Chat- eauguay Valley may well consider this as the worst storm of the '49-'50 winter.Snow has been falling almost continually since Sunday and high drifts are being piled ever higher.Fortunately temperatures have not been too low although reported below normal for this time of year.Canvassers Named For Red Cross

exists that 3.- 000 employees of Montreal Cottons, Ltd., Valleyfield, may follow the lead of Montreal Dominjon Textile Co.14d.workers in quitting the allegedly leftist AFL.United Textile Preliminary plans are being laid for the annual Red Cross Campaign in Huntingdon Town and County this week and while no definite date has been set in view of weather conditions, it is expected that it will officially open next week.The stormy weather we have been experiencing since the start of March has caused changes to be made several times and the weather will have much to do with the actual opening of the campaign here.The National campaign is in full swing however, but will depend largely on conditions prevailing at various points throughout the country.More particulars will be announced in the next issue of the Gleaner as to the exact plans to be followed.Meanwhile below is published a partial list of the canvassers who have been appointed to carry out the canvass.It will be Workers of America.The statement came from Sam Baron, international vice-president of the right-wing C.I.O.Textile Workers Union of America, who claimed the A.F.L.union had lost 2,500 of its Montreal membership to the C.IO.Union Denies Defection The AFL.union denied it had lost the bulk of its members.\"As far as we know, not one member of Local 102 of the U.T.W.A.has left the union,\u201d a spokesman declared.\u2018\u2019\u2019he meeting \u2018last Sunday) at which some 1,700 members were reported to have quit our organization, could not have been attended by more than 150 people.\u201d Baron hailed the loss of membership by the AFL.as \u201ca major defeat for the Communist forces of Canada.\u201d He said he had recommended approval of a charter application made by the former U.T.W.A.Local 102 for entry into the C.1.0.affiliate, Baron sald efforts had been made to smear Azelus Beaucage, business agent of Local 102, who recently was suspended from the union.He said the attempts had constituted a \u201cpolitical lynching\u201d of Beau- cage and added that the Greater Montreal Joint Board of the Textile Workers Union would appoint him as a business agent \u201cwhere he can function constructively in the democratic family of labor.\u201d \u201cDecision of the workers to join the C.I.O.will take them out of a dark and dismal political jungle into the democratic light of free trade unionism,\u201d Baron said in a statement.\u201cAll Canada can be proud! of them.They are most welcome additions to the progressive ranks of the labor movement.\u201d The Communists, he said, are the enemies of the labor movement in Canada.The struggle, he said, had been \u201cbetween the Communist movement, its,friends and fronts, on the one hand, and the anti-Communist, progressive Textile Workers Union on the other\u201d.With reference to charges that Beaucage had mishandled union funds, Baron said it was \u201ccharacteristic of the Communist crowd that they must destroy the integrity of those who oppose them\u201d.\u201cThere is a strong possibility that 3,000 workers in Valleyfield might follow the lead of thelr Montreal brothers and break with the Red- led United Textile Workers\u201d, he ad- ed.Loss of the Valleyfleld membership would mean the virtual end of the U.T.W.as a full-fledged union since it draws most of its membership from Quebec province.\u201d Meantime, the AF.L.union charged that mote than $6,000.belonging to Local 102 had been \u201cremoved unlawfully from the union's treasucy by certain ex-officers of the local\u201d The union sald the amount was taken out of the local's bank account \u201cillegally and without any authori- noted that several more canvassers are needed for certain districts to be covered and volunteers for this work will be appreciated.Those who would like to volunteer can get in touch with either Mr.J.M.Smel- lie or Mr.Doug.Stephens, who will be pleased to hear from them.Huntingdon\u2014 Chateauguay &t.West,

dead in a barn near hjs home on Wednesday afternoon.He was 63 years of age.The body was discovered by Mr.Otis Travisee who had noticed that there was no smoke coming from the chimney of the home and no signs of life whatsoever.Suspecting that something was wrong, Mr.Travisee took it upon himself to investigate and found Mr.Gauthier lying dead in one of the horse stalls, Mr.Gauthier had lived by himself about one mile west of Herdman on the Brook road.Friends report that he had said as early as Sunday that he was not feeling well.It is believed he had been dead since Tuesday.Dr.H.R.Clouston, County Coroner, investigated the death and released the body for burial, cause of death has not been ascertained, but is attributed to a heart attack.Surviving Mr.Gauthier are his sister Mrs.J.Reid (Alice) of Covey Hill, and two brothers.Messrs.Albert and Walter Gauthier, of Herdman.The funeral was held on Saturday afternoon at the Huntingdon Funeral Parlour.The interment took place ut St.Paul's Anglican Church cemetery, Herd- man.Pall bearers were Messrs.James Wallace, James Levers, Percy McGowan and Otis Travisec.N.Foisy Heads Home Week Programming County Council Supports Civic Center \u2018 Project The Old Home Week committee recently appointed Mr.Noel Foisy as Chairman in charge of the programming and Mr.George Dixon who is to lay the ground work for the parade.In addition Mr.James Fox reported to the committee on Thursday that he had attended the meeting of the Huntingdon County Council and had received their unqualified support of the project to build a civic center.The council was invited to send representatives to the committee meetings.Meanwhile members of the committee are expected to visit Keene, Ont, where the community has erected, for a reasonable price, a skating rink which seems to meet their requirements very adequately.It is possible that the building committee will seriously consider a similar rink, building which would appear to suit the needs of Huntingdon perfectly and would cost only 25,000 dollars (not including artificial ice).Again the Gleaner urges its readers to send in names of relatives or friends who might like to attend the Old Home Week celebration, Watch for the Red Cross Canvasser who will distribute a handy coupon.Compost Making Important Item ve Miss Barbara Ann Scott and 50 or more members of the Skating Sensations Company were weekend guests at the Huntingâon Chateau.Miss Scott was also accompanied by her mother, her manager, Mr.\u2018Tommy\u2019 Gorman, and two French poodles, Sambo and Scoop.Despite the fact that she is kept busy with one or more performances a day Miss Scott appeared as fresh and vivacious as ever.A visit to suite 108 at the Chateau found her surrounded by ?hoto- graphers, almost barricaded by lights and cameras; nevertheless she graciously consented to devote a few moments to the Gleaner.Asked how she liked her work, Miss Scott replied with enthusiasm that she found it \u201cawfully interesting\u201d, and that her present tour would probably end in April.After that she is planning a well-deserved vacation.Mrs.Scott, who accompanies her daughter everywhere and does her best to shelter her as much as pos- sibe from the many demands of fame, said that this was Barbara Ann's first visit to Huntingdon, although she had a number of friends here.Her next stop on the tour is Troy, N.Y.On Monday afternoon, Miss Scott was presented with a magnificent bouquet of roses by Mr.Ivan Heath on behalf of the Huntingdon Rotary Club.She also received flowers from the Huntingdon Board of \u2018Trade and from the management of the Chateau.The figure skater left by plane for New York for a day or two.The above Gleaner photograph shows Mr.Ivan Heath presenting fiowers to Miss Scott and her mother at center looking over the bouquet.Girl Guides Enrolled at Valleytield Nineteen Girls Receive Tenderfoot Pins VALLEYFIELD\u2014On March 4th, Miss

seedlings, according to L.F.Ouns- worth, Dominion Experimental Station, Harrow, Ontario.He has found that more damage is done to the seedlings by applying too much fertilizer than by not fertilizing at all.If it is felt that fertilizer should be added.thoroughly mix In no more than two level tablespoons per fiat of soil, or three ounces per bushel.Many growers are extremely careful about the source of their seed, are careful to treat the seed before sowing, and watch over the seedlings regularly, but use whatever soil is the handiest when it comes to seeding or transplanting.But a poor soil cannot be improved for seedling growth simply by the addition of quantities of commercial fertilizer.A soll lacking in organic matter is difficult to moisten properly.In a three-inch layer of soil in a flat, the moisture is not easily retained unless there is sufficient organic matter in the soil.Thus, watering becomes mor: of a problem.In such a soll, aeration does not take place as it should and consequently the roots and the whole plant suffer.The soil becomes compacted and the roots find it difficult to develop in search of food.A good seed-best compost should contain at least one-third by vol- Girl Guides, arranged to have Mrs.H.Spencer of Beauharnois come down to enrol the Guides.19 girls were enrolled at this time.Each received her Tenderfoot pin as

physician in the town.General opinion is that Hun+ tingdon should have at least four doctors.The Medical Centre at Ormstown has agreed to help as much as possible and it is expected that emergency calls will be handled there.Meanwhile residents are asked not to call a doctor unless it is deemed absolutely necessary.What will be done in the future to make sure that this town fs adequately

general practitioners throughout the continent.Far too many young graduates have preferred to specialize and therefore must practice in the city.Another factor is that many internes have lived most of their lives in the larger centers and have no desire to take up residence in a smaller town.Whatever the reason, Huntingdon and many other small towns could use a few more general practitioners of the calibre of Dr.Clouston and Dr.McEwen.Huntingdon County Hospital has been quite busy the past few weeks and its capacity is being taxed to the utmost.Dr.Lefebvre is thus not only looking after his own patients and those of the other doctors, but is frequently called upon for extra work at the hospital.We May Soon Be Able to Enjoy Television T.V.Channels 2, 5, 9, Station in Montreal MONTREAL, - The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation has been assigned channels 2 and 5 for its proposed television operations in Montreal and channel 9 in Toronto, : it was announced by Donald Manson, acting General Manager.(The CBC expects to start its telecasts in the fall of next year).As in the case of ordinary radio, TV frequencies are assigned to stations by the Department of Transport In Ottawa.The Department is in constant contact with other governmental authorities in North America since all stations share the same frequencies.The standard broadcasting band runs from 540 to 1.600 ke/s, whereas the TV frequency band uses much shorter waves in a band running from 54 to 216 m/cs.\u2018This latter band, explains J.E.Hayes, CBC engineer, contains 12 channels of six mega- (It also contains some channels reserved for FM, amateur and other services).The TV channels are numbered from 2 to 13 and the recycles width for TV transmissions.| CBO will the higher income brackets were have observed

apart.The CBC was assigned two channels in Montreal as the Corporation expects eventually tn operate two outlets in the city, one French and one English.The first one to be used will be channel 2.It is the first of the hand and runs from 54 to 60 mc/s.Channel 5 operates from 76 to 82 mc/s and channel 9 from 186 to 192 mc,s.In turn, the channels are divided in two parts of unequal width: the video and the audio.Video means image and audio, sound.Sound in TV is frequency modulated; the video portion im amplitude modulated.In addition to these channels, the use microwave frequencies in still

Sutton of Covey Hill, Que.A coroner's jury on Monday evening took but a few minutes to hold Earl Sutton and his mother criminally responsible for the death of Arthur Sutton, 48, who was shot after arguing with his wife and family.Saturday afternoon, it Is reported, Sutton and his son were chopping wood at the rear of the home when the quarrel began.The boy Is alleged to have sald, \u201cI don't want to work with you anymore; you're always fighting\u201d.Sutton then drove ir.a horse-drawn buggy to St.Antoine Abbe, a neighbouring town, to sell a load of wood.He is sald to have spent most of the afternoon in the tavern but roturned at 8.30 that night and had supper while the family listened to the radio.Later he went to the barn to feed the ammals and afterwards, he allegedly returned to the house and .enterprises ordered his son to turn off the radio, to which the latter replied, \u201cGo to bed yourself, Fm not, stand- mg in your Way\".It is reported that 4 heated argument ensued which Sutton continued with his wife upstairs in the bedroom.Some have stated that the man had attacked his wife but, in any event, the quarrel was violent enough that Elsie, hin twelve-year-old daughter, called to her brother for help.At.that.point Earl mounted the tars with a 30-30 calibre rifle, warned his father to \u201clay off\", threatening to shoot him in the legs \u201cMH vou don't

their best years.They are optimistic about the tuture and, although their turnover was, for the most part, a little lower than the year before, they are not expecting more than a slight levelling off in the next twelve months.A survey of 58 places of business in Huntingdon reveals that these had an approximate turnover of $3,180,000 in 1948.Some merchants reported a marked 1n-, crease for the year; In a few cases the value of retail sales was up 15% over that of 1948.Needless to say, the degree of change varied from place to place and a great deal depended on the line of goods or type of service offered.One or two sold that they were aware of a lessening of demand, of à swing towards «à huyer'\u2019s market, but that they were able to offset it hy working harder, by more vigorous sales promotion, or by taking on new lines where the change would not he felt.On the whole Huntingdon's business, and that of many other smaller centers, was slightly off the 1948 peak; but not more than 57%, a figure which 1s too small to be indicative of a trend.The gross value of Huntingdon's textile production in 1949 urmounted to an approximate $8,700,000.The mills employed abut 600 persons and paid out about $1,360,000 In wages and salaries, 8-10% more than the previous year.The industry expanded at least 60,000 square feet (floor area) in 1949, a figure which includes three new huildings, | either erected or converted for the: purpose, and a few minor additions, The town's wage earners, on the whole made more in 1949 than in the previous year.A group of 943.working persons (including textile: labour)» carned an estimated $1,- 160,000 last year.This would mean lawyers, etc.\u2014 and Individuals in not Included in these evaluations).Huntingdon businessmen offer many reasons for the reported levelling off last year, but undoubtedly one of the principal factors can be, found in the influence of the: farmer.The amount of business they bring to Huntingdon was found, as might he expected, to vary considerably from one enterprise to another.One merchant who order in fifty came {rom the farmer.On the other hand, certain re- tallers (dealers in farm equipment, for instance) from outside \u2018the town.All things considered, Huntingdon retailers have a healthy respect for the farm dollar.One progressive small-town storekeeper went so far as to advise merchants to develop an atmosphere of home-spun informality to their business, make their shops places where the farmer can feel free to drop in to \u2018chew the fat\u2019, suggesting that this was one way of boosting the trade from outside.In any case a conservative estimate would be that the farmer accounts for at least 60% of Huntingdon's ceiver dial is numbered according- both.Some of these will be in

Monday evening with Dr.I.K.Williams, of Chateauguay, act- {ng as coroner.Mr.George Meloche presided.The members of the jury were Messrs.Joseph Allen, James Allen, Herby Boileau, Francis Buchanan, Osborne Mannagh and Pierre Gagnler, Three witnesses testified to the shooting.Gordon Sutton told in detail of the quarrels and the tragedy that followed His testimony was corroborated by Marvin Jackson, a 17-year-old cousin who spent the day at the Sutton farmhouse, Mrs.Sutton stated that she had had \u201cnothing but trouble\u201d with her husband for the past fifteen years and she recalled that after Sutton had left.to sell the wood on Saturday afternoon, Earl had said, \u201cIf he comes back drunk, I'll shoot him in the legs and cripple him\u201d.She added that she had warned her son, \u201cDon\u2019t shoot to kill because we'll have trouble\u201d A few hours later, Sutton was dying lifele\u2026 on the bedroom floor.The ix-man Jury rendered their verdiet 1n less than five minutes; Earl Sutton and his mother were held criminally responsible for the muns death.They appeared on Tuesday before Magls- trate Fortin in Valleyfield, Earl Sutton was formally charged with murder and the mother with counselling murder, Mr.Albert Leblanc of Val- leyfield has been retained to defend the pair.Preliminary hearing has heen set for March 27, 948 Peak down slightly in 1849 would be an

remains that the fear of a dwindling market, falling prices or a depression meant that, not only the farmer, hut everyone was more economically minded, more price conscious.Customers were not spending with as much freedom.Many small-town retailers blame their lowered turnover In part on the weather.\u2018Trading In the Christmas season wie not up to that of 1048.A sore point with \u2018many a dealer is that a prospective customer may go shopping in the city; if the weather i5 mild and the roads good, more and more people flock to Malone, Cornwall, Montreal or Valleyfield.It is a fact that, when people decide to ccono- mize, as they did in '49, they immediately look to the larger centers where they haope to find bargain sales and lower prices.They are, however, not necessarily right.Many commodities have a fixed price, one that is at the same level in all parts of the country and a comparison of some of the advertisements in the Montreal Star and the Gleaner will confirm this statement.Buyers would do well, before undergoing the expense of motoring to the city, to investigate their own local market.Be that as may, the small town merchant will always face a considerable amount of competition from the city for, even if roads are had, there la still the mail-order catalogue.Finally the mild weather meant that the sale nf many an overcoat or electric heater was

arisen to compete with them.Half a dozen or 80 new businesses came into existence in 1949 and it has been noted by some local economists that, although Huntingdon and the surrounding area has become more densely settled, the number of new enterprises coming into the feld age Two The Huntingdon Gleaner Was à good attendance of members and guests.A letter of thanks; was read from Mr.D.P.Grant for

DEWITTVILLE \u2014 Some of our citizens are still indoors with colds, laryngitis, etc.Those who have taken the new anti-histamines seem to have escaped these virus diseases to a great extent.Dr.Paul de Kruif, in the Reader's Digest, December.1949, tells us \u201cthe use of Neohetramine (an antihistamine drug) at a cold\u2019s first warning signal, with regular dosage thereafter, will likely kill a cold within 36 hours \u2014 thus it seems within the range of possibility at last to wipe out the curse of the cold in the read\u201d.However, other doctors believe these drugs, sold under var- fous trade names, should be used with caution, especially because of the drowsiness produced by them.Mrs.K.K.Pearce recently addressed the Goforth Evening Auxiliary of St.Andrew's Church, St.Lambert.\u201cThe Women of China\u201d was her topic and Communist rule in that country was discussed.The aim of the Communists is to break down the Chinese family system.the very warp upon which the fabric of Chinese life is woven.During her talk, Mrs.Pearce told of a missionary who had given her life in service to the Chinese -\u2014 Barbara MacNaughton.An embroidered Chinese coat which Mrs.Mac- Naughton had brought back with her, and which showed the skilful- ness of Chinese workmanship, was shown.There are, no doubt, people in the community who remember Miss Barbara MacNaughton and that she served as a medical missionary first at the hospital in Cheng-tu, where she was in charge, and later at Chung-King.Her untimely death was brought about by the explosion of some cooking fuel from which she suffered severe burns.Great people too often seem to originate in far-off places, and it is good to know there have been strong and courageous people who have been familiar with the countryside we know.And perhaps there will be others, who knows?Mrs.Selma Humberg, Mrs.Hilda Humberg and Ruth, recently bade farewell, in Montreal, to their Winnipeg friends, Mr.and \u2018Mrs.Fred

18, 1060 Editorial Notes.Showing a Fine Example DONATION of $478.20 has just been received by the Huntingdon County Hospital from employees of Leach Textiles and Spinners Ltd.and is very much appreciated by the Governors.It indicates a real interest in this institution by the people whom it serves.During the war years the employees of these mills voluntarily contributed .10c per week from their wages to the Red Cross.Last July at a meeting of the employees they decided that as the war was now over and the drain on Red Cross funds reduced, they would apply their collection to the Huntingdon County Hospital, and the above amount only represents six months collections.For 1950 they have decided to apply the proceeds of the first six months to the Estate of Lucien Brunette, who was formerly one of their foremen, and the second half to the benefit of the Hospital.They plan to make this donation annually unless some more pressing need arises.These employees are to be commended on this plan; no one misses the .10c very badly, but in the aggregate it can be a great help to the Hospital, and it 15 hoped that if any of them need hospitalization some special consideration can be given them.We think the employees of these Mills are setting a fine example of what can be done to support necessary public institutions, which have to depend on the public for voluntary support.It might also be an example which could be followed by other employees in places of business in town.Business Appears To Be Holding Up VER the past few months The Gleaner has been conducting a survey of the economic conditions as they obtain to the Town of Huntingdon and our first report on same appears in this issue.It will be followed by other reports of conditions which affect the general economy and which have an effect on the general prosperity of all citizens.Fortunately, Huntingdon is not affected by unemployment conditions which have been reported from many parts of the country and the survey will tend to show reasons why we are not so suffering.Our business men have watched conditions continually and have safeguarded against possible trends to every extent of which they are capable and can foresee.The portion of the survey which is now being published has to do with Industrial and business conditions - later it will deal with agricultural conditions as they affect this part of the country.Other items will be discussed in later issues untii a complete picture has been given.In this survey only the main business places have been contacted as belng the principal business section of the town.There are many lesser businesses which could be added, but from which it would be much harder to obtain the figures needed to make such a survey possible.While these lesser businesses have a good turnover, they would not add greatly to the figures given and we believe it will be found that the picture traced is quite a bright one.There have been continued reports that a decline has set in and \u2018that 1950 will be a gloomy one before its end.From the facts revealed Lo The Gleaner, we are of the opinion that while there is a slight levelling off, there is no sign of a rapid decline that could A Worthy NCE again the annual appeal on behalf O of the Canadian Red Cross Society is being made across the country and the Counties of Huntingdon, Chateauguay and Beau- harnois are included.In Huntingdon the campaign will open on Monday, March 20th and preliminary collections will be made during- a part of the present week.The actual canvassing will start on Monday and it is the hope of the committee to complete it by the end of the month.It is during a war that the Red Cross comes into the most prominence, yet its work goes on in peace time without abatement.There have been many disasters of small or large proportions since the war and the Red Cross has stood ready to offer assistance and services to those in need.While we here in this portion of Quebec have not evidenced any of these disasters, there may come A time when we will be thankful that there is such an organization as the Red Cross, We do not want to meet such things, but it is a grand feeling to know that showd they occur we can fall back upon the services and assistance that is offered.Many herald a depression.Our business men are not of that opinion and that bids well for the number of citizens who depend for their livelihood on the success of business in Huntingdon.Huntingdon is fortunate in the fact that it had men of foresight in the years back and that they worked hard to induce the various mills to locate here.It is fortunate that these mills did locate here and that the owners have so much faith in the stability of our town that they have seen fit to expand their mills on more than one occasion.As will be seen by the amount paid out in wages to employees in these mills, there is much potential circulation of money to promote confidence in the business of the town.In turn the fact that these mills have located here has provided other means of employment in many fields.The town has grown in assessed value as well as population and all these factors have contributed to a spread in business for all who offer services to the consumer.; On the other hand it tends to show the need for increased display in shop windows, and more need to tell the public of the goods and services which the business men have to offer.Such information would tend to keep business at home rather than it being routed to the cities.A well informed public will respond by taking advantage of what can be bought at home.Many of the business places have improved their places of business and have improved their services, but there is still much room for improvement.Hunting- don being near to two cities must be prepared to do business on a city basis, prices, selection and services must correspond as nearly as possible to what can be secured in those cities.We cannot afford to be behind, we must remain out in front.Appeal individuals have received assistance from the Red Cross in these three counties and they have been glad that such assistance was forthcoming.This assistance has not been blazoned forth in large headlines, for that is not the way the society works.It does its job quietly and unobstrusively, so little is heard of what has actually been accomplished.In a time of great disaster, as often as not, only a few lines are devoted to the\u2019 work that the Red Cross has done, yet it is actually deserving of more publicity.But the great and noble are seldom given the praise they deserve and in the case of the Red Cross it is considered as only its duty.Money is needed all the time in order that the Red Cross can provide its services and assistance and at this time each year an appeal is made to the public to give and give generously.We hope that when the canvasser calls on you in the next few weeks that you will do your part and give as much as you can afford to help along the work being done by the great international society We never know when we may need the Red Cross-meantime the Red Cross needs you, don\u2019t turn it down.Cold Water 7 E are all familiar with the man whose self-appointed mission in life is to throw cold water over the good ideas and suggestions of others: the man who strikes an attitude of tolerant superiority and tells you why it is impossible that your idea could work.Unless you have plenty of faith in yourself and in your idea, this attitude can be most discouraging and can result in your abandoning it entirely.Inventors and pioneers in new f[lelds are probably more familiar with these \u201cexperts\u201d than anyone else.We remember sceing in & collection of old newspapers, a front page feature in a New York journal carrying a date line early in the century, written by a medical authority well known at the time and giving a number of excellent reasons why it is impossible for the human organism to sustain life when travelling at morc than 30 miles an hour.It was only a short time before the learned doctor had to eat his words.Alexander Graham Bell was told many times that, while the telephone was thcore- tically possible, there were many insurmountable difficulties that made it practically impossible.Dr.Bell was far too occupied listening on the receiver of his mechanism for the signal that would mean that his experiments were a success to hear this \u201cgood advice.\u201d There are those who would throw cold water over the idea of the proposed civic centre and Old Home Week, but the committee in charge of plans is not listening to them.It is going right ahead and meeting with much success in so doing.No plan, no matter what it is can go through without some opposition and oftentimes the more opposition it gets, the greater the success it is.Then again, those who throw the cold water are not often the ones who would buckle to and lend a helping hand.they are too busy criticizing.The sum raised by the Old Timers and the Huntingdon Merchants hockey games is a gesture that is commendable, it is thal help that is worth a pound of pity and has done much to boost the idea of a civic contre for Huntingdon.More and more help of this nature will be required during the forthcoming months and it is the earnest hope of the committee that many more organizations will see fit to do something that will be a benefit for the project in hand.what others have done elsewhere can certainly be done in Huntingdon.A thing to remember is thal the project is county-wide and not just a town proposition\u2014it is also the idea to provide the centre as an all-year- round useful building and not just a skating rink.If you have any ideas, the committee will be pleased to hear of them.Although every precaution will be taken to avoid error, The Gleaner accepts advertising .in its columns on the understanding that it will not be liable for any error in any

go out with loads of anglers, irrespective of how rough the sea may be and many tales come back at the close of the angler's fishing day, which is 4 pm.Some people just naturally get sea-sick and sometimes yachts with such passengers have to return to land.If a sail fish is caught, a particular flag is unfurled and should it be some other species of fish, a flag indicating the type is displayed.The sail fish, however, produces the comments and the long descriptions of anglers regarding the problems they encountered in landing them.A few days ago a Mr.Hick- ler, of this hotel, had the good fortune to land two sail fish, one measuring 7 feet, six inches long and weighing 60 lbs.The second fish measur®d just over six feet in length.The big fish is being smoked and will be sent to his home in Mount Vernon, Ohio.Athletes in Training The anglef8 have their fishing and at the same time the national American sport is being practised on Wright Field.The Philadelphia Athletics of
