undoubtedly the oldest resident of Ormstown and probably of the Province of Quebec, celebrated her 102nd birthday on Wednesday, July 2ist.The lady appeared to be in the best of health and carried out her task in fine manner.She was interviewed by members of Radio Stations CFCF and CKAC of Montreal, which was recorded on tape and broadcast from these stations over the week-end.The proadcast over CFCF was heard on Sunday, July 25th, at 12.05.Mr.Bill Petty of CFCF was in charge of the interview for his station.Following the recording of the interview on the tape, it was played back for Mrs.Moe, so that she could hear what it would sound like and she was greatly impressed and pleased to hear her own voice.A large number of people visited the Moe home in Ormstown during the afternoon of Wednesday and Mrs.Moe was the recipient of several very useful gifts.Several officials of \u2018the Canadian National Institute for the Blind were present and offered congratulations to Mrs.Moe on her 102nd birthday.The officials from Montreal were \u2014 Messrs.McClintock, Zuplasky and Corbeil and local officials were: Mr.D.O.Wing and Mrs.Vallee of Orms- town.A gift from the C.N.I.B.was a long-playing record of favorite hymns of Mrs.Moe and no doubt she will obtain much enjoyment from this.Following the interview for the radio broacast, which was taken in the bedroom of Mrs.Moe, the little old lady was brought into the living room to receive her gifts and congratulations from the gathering.great age in her face and she ap- | | peared deeply interested in all that | was going on.Mrs.Moe's sight is not too good and her hearing is failing, but she understood most of what was going on and what she could not see was explained to her.For instance, photographers were present and were taking flash pictures.She saw the flash and could not understand what it was, but it was explained to her and che laughed and seemed very pleased.She thanked all who spoke to her, for coming to wish her a happy birthday and even had a little joke here and there.She seemed very pleased when her minister congratulated her and said a few words to her.Mr.D.O.Wing acted as chairman and turned over the job of master of ceremonies to Mr.McClintock of the C.N.I.B.All of the proceedings were recorded by Mr.Petty of CFCF.Mr.Wing first of all announced the outstanding persons present and presented the regrets of some who were invited, but were unable to come.Mr.McClintock offered Mrs.Moe his congratulations and brought a message from the C.N.LB.of the enjoyment of being able to visit her ! on many other occasions.He presented Mrs.Moe with 102 roses from the Dale Estate, one rose for each of | the 102 years.The roses were very beautiful and in several different colors.Both Mr.Zuplasky and Mr.: Corbiel offered their congratulations and spoke of the pleasure they had on other occasions when they | visited her.Mr.Andrew Fawcett, | President of the Huntingdon Rotary Club, presented Mrs.Moe with a' wheel chair which had been pur-_ chased through the funds of the Easter Seals campaign., While Mrs.She looked quite charming as she Moe can still get around, it was Mother

consecutive year, the Rotary Club gave the citizens of Valleyfield and district the op- Portunity to see Valleyfield's annual Fair.Although there were no agricultural exhibits this year, industrial ones and those of Valleyfield merchants however were numerous.And, as usual, rain spoiled the fun, and the George Hamid Revue had to be cancelled Wednesday night and also Children's Day which was Supposed to take place the same day.This was postponed to Thursday afternoon when a good attendance of children in front of the grandstand witnessed a special show presented for them.They saw the acrobat Agramonte, and Nafto with his wise dogs.Numerous prizes were distributed to the youngsters who had the best decorated bicycles.Two bicycles were also raffled among all the children on the ground.Free tickets had been given them earlier.The two lucky winners where Claudette Bouchard and Jean Claude Picotte, both from Valleyfield.Due to the generosity of the Rotary Club and La Crémerie de Valleyfield, ice cream was given to all yougsters.This year there was no entry charge and this probably brought More people to the Fair.The great amount of work contributed by the Rotary Club added to the success of the Fair.The organizers of Children's Day for instance sure had quite a bit of work and they did wonderfully well in bringing joy to numerous children.In the arena a large number of exhibits were presented, which \\ Moe is sitting in her whey! chair presented to her on Wednesday by the Huntingdon Rotary Club.Stand- proved interesting and instructive.Among them was the Shawinigan

in early fall: at least that is a consensus of feeling that prevails amongst some people of Orma- town.The Huntingdon Rotary Club hopes a Club is formed in Ormstown and -on Monday demonstrated ita willingness to help promote such à community service organisation.During the past number of weeks several Huntingdon members have met with twenty odd men of Orms- town and discussed the idea of an Ormstown Club.From the interviews made it is quite evident the nucieus of a good club can be found.On Monday the Huntingdon Rotary Club held its regular weekly meeting in the Ormstown Hotel and invited many men of Ormstown to be present so that they in turn could form their own opinion as to whether they wished to form a club or otherwise.Due to the fact that so many In Ormstown were either away on holidays or business, and likewise of Rotarians of Hunt- ingdon, the attendance was not large.Francois Cleyn, the Vice-Presi- dent of Huntingdon Rotary Club when it was founded ten years ago, addressed the meeting and told of some of the highlights in the way of achievements of the Huntingdon Rotary Club.In his opening remarks he expressed the feeling that Orms- town was not only large and able enough to have a good active Rotary Club but that if such a club were formed the united efforts of the two clubs could unitedly co-oper- ate the mutual benefit of the two communities such as was demonstrated when the united campaigns of Ormstown and Huntingdon was held for the benefit of the two Cha- teauguay Valley Hospitals.In brief the following is the approximate text of what Mr.Cleyn Grade Ten Results ago.As it is seen above, it was setting on the property of its owner.i About two weeks ago mention was made in this newspaper that a cannon that used to be at Prince Arthur Square, was not there any more and that it had been sold for scrap for a paltry sum.Word came to us and also the above photograph of the history of this cannon.It appears that the late George Blatchford, who was owner of \u2018Idlewilde\u201d now known as \u201cBurn- brae\u201d of the Lord Athelston Estate, an amusement park and picnic grounds.With such idea in mind used to own the property which is now the Huntingdon County Hospital, secured the sald cannon from Ottawa for Mr.Blatchford.The not known on which side the cannon was used however.For a good many years the cannon was Kept on the Blatchford property and was mounted upon a cement base.The property was originally purchased from a Grey Nuns order.Time went on and the property came into the hands of T.S.Gard- iner and it was known as \u201cIdle- wilde\u201d.The cannon still remained, but the original idea was never followed.In due time the property was sold to Lord Athelston, which would be approximately 30 years ago.It was at this time that Mr.Gardiner decided to make a gift to the Town of Huntingdon of the cannon.This was accepted and it was set up in Prince Arthur Square.During the years it attracted a great deal of attention and we believe the citizens of the Town were quite proud of it.Just when the cannon actually faded out of sight is not certain, but it is within recent years.A descendant of Mr.Gardiner heard that the cannon was behind the Fire Station and urged his mother, who is a daughter of the late T.S.Gardiner.to ask for the cannon to be given back and to place it on their property.It was not thought to be etiquette to do this, so nothing was done.Bu these people felt quite badly when they learned that the cannon had been sold for scrap and without any question as to whether it should have been or not.They felt it was a gift to the town and as such should have been preserved for all time and that it would not be right to ask for such a gift back, even though it be one of the family {to

have had an opportunity to lay claim to it and thus have preserved it for themselves.Now the cannon is lost entirely.It is to 'be hoped that no other gift of this nature will be disposed of without

assembled gathering on Monday.The Adventure of Rotary We anticipate that at an early date the men of Ormstown will make an adventure into Rotary.What will you get out of this adventure?AA a citizen of Huntingdon I will endeavour to give you a rough outline of how Rotary has faired during the past ten years in Huntingdon and what it has meant to the community.It is suprising what a group of men united by a common desire to serve their fellow men can achieve for their fellow citisens and their community.You have demonstrated this ability in Ormstown by two outstanding achievements, your beautiful Hospital and the Orma- town Fair.Rotary will help you to further promote these two projects and to arouse interest in many other activities so necessary for a balanced community Wfe.In getting together every week for a meal you will be surprised how much better you will got to know each other and Rotary ls very anxious to promote a feeling of good fellowship amongst ita members thal can easlly be enlarged to take in the whole Community.For this reason it Ils expected of you to be present.You cannot belong to Rotary if you are hot keeping up your attendance.It is important that you have a proper meeting place and this hotel is ideal, and to arrange your meetings at a time most convenient for the majority of the members.All members of Rotary are busy men therefore a strict timetable has to be kept and meetings must start and finish on time.We all have to eat and very few are the men that can argue that they cannot afford Monday noon, Huntingdon Rota- |President Andrew

would get out of it far more than you are putting In.By that I mean that if you are prepared to serve and help others then the pleasure of this work will be a very important reward.This desire to serve is common to all Rotarians around the world and if you happen to travel you will find in every town in North America and in most towns elsewhere a group of men having thepame Micald with whom you will immediately have a common bond.You will enlarge your acquaintanceship and come in contact with a number of people who will be in a position to help your various community projecta.The Huntingdon Rotary Club was formed October 26th, 1944 and our first President was Gilbert McMillan, Gilbert told me that he never undertook a job with more misgivings, and never found one much easier to carry out, We atarted in Huntingdon with 17 charter membera and I can assure you that It is not the number of peopie that belong to Rotary that matters but the quality of the people that form a club.I strongly advise you not to ask anybody to join the club, that you are not sure that is doing so because he wants to serve.When your president asks you to do something you accept the assignment without argument.I would now Mke to list a few of the projects undertaken by our club in the past ten years.Youth Work We have had yearly picnics, Hal- lowe'en, skating rink and Christmas Parties for our children.We promote a yearly public speak- Ing contest with Montreal Rotary.(Continued on Page Four) James B8mythe, Arch.McCormick, Dr.Arthur White, Merrill Barring- ton, Teo Cappiello, E.C.Martin, Huntingdon County when a real agitation was made to have the Laguerre Drainage Canal dug.40,000 acres of land are in the area and if these lands were as well drained as deserved, and in place of burning off the good muck topsoil; such could quite easily be expected to be some of the most profitable truck garden farms in south Western Quebec.In the Norton Creek, Barrington and Hem- mingford areas where they have muck lands, the land is not only very expensive but is producing tremendous vegetable crops.The County of Huntingdon hes seen almost $348,000 spent on the Laguerre Drainage Canal.Of this amount the original contract represented $182,000, and the second contract 633,000.The cost of control dams represents another $27,000.This $242,000 was paid equally by the Federal and Provincial Governments.Unfortunately when the second contract was given amounting to $33,000 it did not fully complete the job.The heavy banks of muck cause the banks to slide into the canal proper and thereby impair the drainage.Throughout the 12 miles of canal there is a fall of 15 feet.The building of bridges over the canal became a problem that was met by the Huntingdon County Council.The cost of bridges, interest and other metters has meant an aggregate financial burden of $106,000.During the years the late Laguerre Drainage Canal Needs to be Recleaned Council in Hopes Provincial Drainage Department Will Do Work and Assume Costs.ds + Roughly, it was 25 years ago |J.G.Rennie was representing Hunt- ingdon County in the Legislature \u2014 some public bridges were built and pald for by the Provincial Government.County Secretary James E.Barrett informs us that the canal debt has been further reduced this year by $7,000 and that a balance of $6,000 remains to be pald in 1955.In addition to this amount to be paid there will be the cost of building two private bridges and one public bridge.There is an agitation on at present to have the canal cleaned, and {f this is now done it would mean a big expense.The County Council does not want to shoulder this expense as the canal has been a long and continuous drain on the County's finances for so many years.Yesterday, Tuesday, July 27 the Quebec Department of Drainage had Mr.Baillargeon, one of their engineers, here to view the Leguerre Drainage Canal with a view to determining what should now be done, how and what it might cost to complete It.The County of Huntingdon at large has certainly done much for the benefit of the many farmers in this area, but naturally wants re- Hef from further financial obligations.It is quite possible the Provin- clal Drainage Department will view the project in a favourable light; at least that is the present anti- cipetion.Eg ST : i: { i t ; | Ë & £ - R om ta TAT

SOME time ago the matter of placing wayside tables, and benches on the grounds at Filter Plant was discussed at the Huntingdon Town Council and the matter was to be investigated.At the time it was considered to be a very good idea and something that would extend a welcome to strangers and others to stop at Huntingdon for a short while at least.It was also felt that even our own local people would like to take advantage of such facilities.However, nothing has been done about the idea, although we are of the opinion that it was sanctioned.It was brought to our attention that during the past week some people were noticed in Prince Arthur Square, sitting on the grass and eating a picnic meal.From all appearances these people were passing through and had stopped at this point to have a meal.It was further pointed out that there is a great lack of facilities for such people in all parts of this province.In Ontario, there are a number of such places provided by the Provincial Government at points along the highways for the benefit of the travelling publie.In view of this, it was suggested that it might be well if tables and benches were set out at Prince Arthur Square as an invitation to travellers passing through this town to stop and rest and to eat their picnic lunches.Such facilities would be an inducement for people to stay awhile in our town and per- No Hot Wars Now On OR the first time since 1939, the world is free from a fighting war, as the armistice and treaty terms were signed last week with regard to Indo-China.We had it in mind that right up to the last minute there might be a hitch and the terms would not be agreed upon.Premier Mendes-France won his acclaim in accomplishing a treaty within the almost stated time he had allowed himself.But it looks as if the terms were won at a cost to France in many ways.The fighting may have been ended and French soldiers\u2019 lives may have been saved, but there was no victory for France after 7% years of war.There was no victory for the Western Powers either, despite the efforts made by many of the nations concerned.The victory was for the Reds\u2014for Russia and they can all afford to wear wide grins of satisfaction and be ready to plan the next point of aggression.Similar terms are now being asked to settle the Korean question.If such are granted, then again the Reds will have won their way.Only time will tell the exact amount of the loss to the Western nations, of Indo- China.Slowly, but surely, the Russian Bear is casting its shadow over the world and feasting upon the spoils from its illgotten gains.To all intents and purposes, Indo-China is just another Munich.Eden has stated that the world has been saved from another World War.That cry went up when Chamberlain with his umbrella came back from Munich and declared that the danger of war with Germany was over.But for how long did that situation last?There is no appeasement for dictators bent on world power as their goal.It is simply staving off the inevitable, A County Sons in THE biggest business in Canada is its own government.Those of us in business are quite familiar with that fact, for our Canadian Government is continually asking for some bit of statistical information or demanding that we collect taxes in its behalf.In general the public at large get pretty well fed up with Jovernmental demands; yet none of us would want to forsake Canada for some other land where business and living conditions would not be near so congenial.One of the many publications put out by Canada is called the Parliamentary Guide.This guide provides a substantial amount of historical information as to the personalities that have, or do represent the public at large in the administration of our land.Since 1867 there has been two Ministers of the Crown who were born in Huntingdon county, viz the late Hon.James A.Robb and the Hon.E.B.Ryckman.It is true that Sir John Rose, the first Minister of Finance after Confederation, represented Huntingdon constituency for a few months but he was a Montreal financier.The Hon.E.B.Ryckman was Minister of Public Works in the Meighen Government and as Minister of National Revenue in the Bennett Cabinet.Mr.Ryckman was born at the Methodist Parsonage in Huntingdon in 1866 and died in 1937.Turning to Deputy Ministers or the equivalent.The late Robert Breadner was born in Athelstan and we believe was the first of the rank from Huntingdon County.Mr.Breadner was the first Commissioner of Income Tax and later was Deputy Minister of National Revenue.The late John Fraser was Auditor General for a period of about ten years, starting about haps with beneficial results.This, it was thought, could be done by the Town Council.There is no doubt that suitable parking places off the highway could be provided by the Government at reasonable distances along our highways and such would be an inducement to tourists to stop awhile and take in a little more of the scenery than is possible when just driving through.It would also provide a safety factor the fact that a river of car could take this opportunity to rest awhile from driving and probably avoid an accident through fatigue.Many an accident is caused because the driver is tired, but because there are no suitable parking places, he decides to make it to the next largest point before he stops to rest._ Such places could even be set up as a private enterprise and facilities could be made available for travellers to bring their cars off the highway and to obtain refreshments and time out for a rest.At many points at this time of the year it will be noticed that motorists stop and pull their cars to the side of the highway while they refresh themselves with a picnic lunch before travelling on.Actually this constitutes a danger on our narrow roads, how much better it would be if proper places were provided for this purpose.This type of thing would be a great publicity builder for the benefit of this province and our towns.- - - World at Peace?respite from war for the time being.There seems to be little doubt that Mendes-France will be the man of the hour in France because the people of France are wearv from their struggle both externally and internally.But what may be the outcome when other matters have to be decided, as they must be and which were put aside in tavour of settling the Indo-China affair.Russia with renewed energy from this recent victory will do her best to win France over to her side in the other matters and especially in view of the fact that France is not wholeheartedly in favour of raising an army of Germans in Germany.The Russians will view the victory as a sign of weakness insofar as the Western Nations are concerned.A victorv gained at no expense to herself.The United States is probably acting wisely in refraining from signing the treaty and from interfering or passing comment upon it.She has warned however, that any signs of aggression will be met with stern determination.So far the United Nations has failed in its cfforts to stop aggression and wars.In fact in this case the United Nations has not figured in it and this is a point that has also been won by the Reds.True.the nations involved in engineering the treaty are all members of the United Nations with the exception of the Chinese Reds.But the treaty was arranged and signed outside of United Nations action.The world is at peace, but the aftermath has not yet becn accounted for.Preparedness is still the watch word for the Western Nations.Government 1908.Mr.Fraser was a native of Lochgerry, Glengarry county, Ont., but spent his summer vacations at Fraser's Point and was related to the Fraser families in Dundee.At the present time there are three native sons of Huntingdon county holding such ranking positions in our Federal Government, viz: Jules Léger, formerly of St.Anicet and brother of Cardinal Léger, Montreal, who is Under- secretarv of State for External Affairs; Arthur Huntingdon Brown, Deputy Minister of Labour, who was born here in 1895 and when a boy went to Regina, Sask., to live with his uncle, Chief Justice Brown.A.H.Brown is a nephew of Mrs.E.C.McCoy and Mr.Frank Brown.The third official is R.Watson Sellar, the Auditor General of Canada, who has held that position since 1940.Watson Sellar is quite well known to a great many people in Huntingdon, being a son of the late Mr.and Mrs.Robert Sellar, and presently being quite generally designated as the father of voung Bob Sellar, a Gleaner columnist.From the foregoing it is to be noted that Huntingdon county can justifiably claim that three of its sons are filling Federal Government positions with the rank of Deputy Ministers or the equivalent, out of a total of roughly forty such posts.In scanning over the remaining such men we note that four were born in Scotland, two in the United States, one in England.As for those born in Canada, four were born in Toronto, three in Montreal, three in Quebec city, three in Ottawa, two in Winnipeg and the remainder from various parts of Canada but none from the same county as the other.Evidently it is quite within our rights to lay claim to the fact that our County sons are maintaining the reputation that \u201cHuntingdon County sons become worthy and reputable men.Although every precaution will be taken

fire was discovered on the roof, with the result that the factory was burned to the ground.The cheese and butter which was in stock was all saved, but a lot of empty boxes which he had just received, costing $450.00, were nearly all burned.The machinery is now in the ruins.The report is that $5000.insurance was carried on the factory, but this does not cover the loss.The inconvenience to patrons, at the season when milk is in full flow, is great.A spark from the smoke-stack was the cause.Valleyfield \u2014 On Sunday, the Fete Dieu procession took place, starting from the Cathedral.The members of tie various orders as sembled at ten o'clock and in glorious sunshine, the processionlsts started in procession, which was by way of Larocque Road to the public park, where a short service was held.Upwards of five thousand persons took part in the ceremony which was an imposing spectacle.Beauharnols \u2014 The town has erected a platform over the sulphur spring on a level with the road and put in a pump, so that water is easily secured now and safeguarded from defilement.Huntingdon \u2014 What in time is going to effect the water of the Cha- teauguay in its full length is being observed at Powerscourt.The pulp mills on the U.8.side are going full blast and the quantity of refuse from them is increased accordingly.A large part of the refuse is hairlike fibre loosened in the grinding of the wood, wich forms a glutinous mass as it reaches dead water at the shallows, difficult to deal with in any way and polluting the water.In these days when paper is s0 dear, it would surely pay the mills to save this stuff and convert it into boards for cartons.° Early risers Monday and Tueaday mornings saw frost glistening on the grass.It was not severe enough to do damage even to beans.The sight of men hoeing potatoes the first week in June deserves to be noted.June 13 Valleytield \u2014 At the closing ex- excises in Macdonald College on Thursday evening, it ls gratifying to note that the pupils of the Gault Institute were well represented In the prize list.Harold S.Cook, second on the list in the teachers class, also won the Superintendant of Public Instruction\u2019s medal, the Robert Bickerdike gold medal for proficiency in mathematics and Hon.Sydney Fisher's prize in Nature Study.Miss Dorothy Hill won the special prizes for history, while Mias Caroline Moore and Miss Martha Thomson were well up on the list.The Week At Ottawa.OTTAWA \u2014 (CP) \u2014 Canada is willing to serve on the three-member Indo-China armistice commission \u2014 it the commission is able to act effectively.It was invited to serve on the truce supervisory commission the night after the armistice was signed in Geneva by French and Commun- ist-led Vietminh leaders.A cabinet meeting was called to discuss the invitation and afterward, External Affairs Minister Pearson told a press conference the final decision will depend upon clarification of exactly what the commission will be required to do.\"If that information and the terms ' of reference and procedure and details are all such as to give us rea- job would probably last at least two years.PAGE THRES the week ending June 19, a drop of He would guess that there 32,000 from a month earlier but still might be 100 to 200 representatives more than double the 90,000 of a from each of the supervisory powers, but he did not know whether they | would be military or civilian.Education 22 Black Canada's larger universities and colleges, helped by aharply-increased government grants, made a small lprofit, collectively, \u2018way back in their 1911-82 year, the bureau of atatistics reports.Student fees accounted for only ,30.2 per cent of their revenues, the bureau found in a survey of 47 institutions that account for about 80 per cent of Canada's full-time en- ,rolment in universities and colleges.As a whole, they had a two-per- year ago.The government also released labor department figures showing 206,747 persons registered for work at national employment offices on June 17, a drop of 62333 from the , May 20 figure but 110,408 more than last year's total of 179,261 June 18, 1968.The government sald there wag à sharp incresse in employment in outdoor work in June and estimated the number of persons at work Jumped 91,000 during the month to a high for the year of 5,171,000 in the week ending June

that the commission could operate effectively if all its decisions had to be unanimous.If that were the case, any one of the three countries \u2014 the others are India and Poland \u2014 would hold veto power.An Indian Government spokesman said at New Delhi that India has formally accepted membership on the commission and he presumes Prime Minister Nehru's gov- Mr.Wells, the principal of the Gault ernment will agree to serve as chair- is to be congretulated on four of his pupils having obtained such success.On Saturday morning, the local troop of Boy Scouts paraded at six o'clock and entrained for Montreal where they joined in the general inspection of the city contingint.The Valleyfield troop has made rapid progress of late and are now proud possesssors of a first class band.Huntingdon \u2014 Monday and Tuesday were the days sheepmen brought their wool to Huntingdon to be sold.The result was that upwards of 11,000 pounds was taken in.The price will average around 70c per pound.At the beginning of the war, 166\u20ac was the price pald per pound.Arctic Life b y Ralph Cooper Mr.Ralph Cooper, youngest son of the late Dr.and Mrs.Cooper of Ormstown, has very kindly prepared a story about the experiences he and his wife had when at Aklavik, several hundred miles within the Arctic Circle.Ralph was always a full blooded boy, when in Ormstown, and irrespective of the fact that he was always lame he managed to keep up with the gang and his lung power was beyond normal when it came to being a rooter at a ball game, field day or hockey match.It would seem nothing but natural to expect Ralph to be doing unusual things or going to unusual places.Last summer when making his regular visit to his home town (Ormstown), and Huntingdon, he promised to write the Gleaner an article about experiences in Aklavik.The interesting article appears herewith.When in Aklavik Mr.and Mrs.Cooper taught the native children in the Church of England School Mr.Cooper was a lay preacher and evidently conducted many of the Sunday Services.During the past year Mr.and Mrs.Cooper have been at Murd- ockville, Que., a new town in the Gaspé, where the Gaspé Copper Mine development is taking place.Let's hope Mr.Cooper will again take pen in hand and write another interesting story for the .Gleaner that may tell us much about the new developments taking place in this newly opened up part of the Gaspé.THE EDITOR.Many people have the idea hat | the north is a dismal place to go to, | and that there is nothing but snow | and ice and igloos.After being there for some time I came to the conclusion that that is not so.I found that the north is very interesting and that what we read in books at school and elsewhere is wrong and has been very much exaggerated.I am going to try and give you a picture | \u2018of what the north is like and about the work I did there and also about the various activities which go on, in and around Aklavik.; Aklavik | Many people, upon reading this | article will say to themselves, where is Aklavik?On a large map of Canada you will see that Aklavik is.\u2018about seventy miles up the great: !Mackenzie River from the open sea.The Mackenzie River Delta is a maze of channels and streams.Ak- lavik is on the west branch of the Peel channel of the river.This chanfel is about one-half mile wide.Behind it at a distance of about eighteen miles 1s a low range of mountains which form the most northerly foothills of the Rockies.The hills are barren of trees.The Delta is well forested with spruce, willow and alder trees.There are a few trees of the poplar variety and fewer birch.The ground is flat and only a few feet above sea level.The soil is sit and when it rains, or during the spring thaw, one must wear rubber boots.To enjoy rocks or sand you must go up river or down to the Arctic coast.The ground thaws only to the depth of four feet where the soil is cultivated and only a matter of inches in the mossy A Growing Town Aklavik is a growing town and at the present time there are many write-ups about it being moved to, a new site.Where once there was only the Anglican Mission, there is now a good sized town, with a population of about 600.The Anglican Mission has three residences, the | Hospital, School and numerous warehouses and a laundry.The Roman Catholics have similar buildings.The Royal Canadian Signals There are two \u2018smaller traders.There is a headquarters for the RCMP.for the area.The Imperial Oil Company has ten large tanks for the storage of oil and gas.There is a small mill used mainly for sawing lumber from the large drift of logs which come down the river.Our local timber is too small to make sawing of it worth while.We also had one hotel with a restaurant combined, two halls, a Legion Hall and a Native hall, which was also used for educational purposes.Two or three times a week, pictures were shown in one of the hotels.Enterprising Community It was a very enterprising community.The Royal Canadian Corps of Signals operated a radio station (built with the financial support of all lsteners within a radius of two hundred miles), which is a very man.Mr.Pearson said it had been ahown only too clearly in Korea that the Communist representatives could hamstring a truce body unless de- talls of procedure and terms of reference were spelled out exactly beforehand.He ssid he assumes the commission will not have to enforce the truce terms.Though he did not say so, it was understood this would have been the main objection to Canadian participation because it would have meant commitment of Canadian troops to Indo-China.Informants said the government provisionally accepted a commission job, though the final decision could not be made until details reached Ottawa this week.Actually there was little else the government could do if it wanted to continue to stand by is declaration to help the cause of peace.Prestige High It was realized, informants said, that acceptance would place Canada in a ticklish position.This country's prestige was high in Asla and many commission decisions supported by Canada might incur the wrath of either the United States or Asla.The Canadian view originally was that the truce commission should comprise the so-called Colombo nations \u2014 India, Pakistan, Ceylon, Burma and Indonesia \u2014 or these countries and one the west.Mr.Pearson sald the commission There were a great many recorded programmes from the Armed Services broadcast in the States.On Sunday, all services were broadcasted.There is a hook-up from the (Continued on Page 9) 1.Stamp; o Aa 9006 1.ve ELECTRIC representative each from the Communist side and successful broadcasting station.It was used nearly every

bureau's report ahows the effect of the new federal program of |university grants based on recommendations of the Massey commission on arts, letters and sclences.Grants are paid on the basis of 50 cents a head of population in each province and in the year under review 86.991.000 was paid to 83 inati- tutions in Canada.\u2018Total federal grants that year were $7.235,000 as against $1,708,000 the previous year.Grants by provincial and municipal govermments also Increased so that 524 per cent of university income came from government souross, compared with 46.2 per cent in 1960-51.Student fecs accounted for 303 per cent of revenues and averaged 4286 for each full-time student.Unemployment Lower The ranks of Canada\u2019s unemployed dwindled during June, continuing the trend away from the post-war unemployment peak of last March.However, the number of jobless atill ran well ahead of last year.Meanwhile, employment increased sharply to a point only slightly below last year, the government reports.The bureau of statistics, in à eur- vey of sample Canadian households, estimated that 185,000 persons were without Jobs and seeking work in Support Ebbe Government officials foresee difficulties tn maintaining public support for heavy defence exepnditures in the next year or two if the world situation doesn't get any worse.Canada's defence planners are thus caught in something of a paradox.They naturally want to see the world situation improve, but as \u2014 or if \u2014 MK does, they feel they will have a harder time obtaining the large amounts of money they believe still will be necessary for defence.| Officials said despite the armistice In Indo-China, the truce a year eartier in Korea and an apparently reduced Communist threat in Europe, the need for heavy defence appropriations is going to continue for a long time.In the last three years, the government has spent $5,000,000,000 for defence and in the current fiscal year plans to spend more than $3,- 000,000,000.The total budget this yoar is $4,500,000,000.Defence officials sald there have been some indications in the last few months that some Canadians would lke to cut down on Canada\u2019s military commitments abroad, but they consider this view ls not at ail general and that the public ls still solidly behind the current defence outlay as a necessary burden in a Jumpy world.e * Why

Europe a little longer and \u2018made the return journey by boat.Mrs.Cleyn returned to Canada the \u2018past week with some very definite impressions of her trip abroad Mrs.Cleyn's first trip on a trans- Atlantic liner was up to her fullest expectations and she recalled that they had a very delightful crossing.Just before the Cleyn's disembarked, a funny incident occurred.A woman approached Mr.Cleyn and gave him \u2018à good dressing down\u2019 for not looking after her baggage properly.The Huntingdonians were | flabbergasted.Then they realized that because he was wearing a blue blazer with the crest of the Hunt- ingdon Curling Club, the woman mistook Mr.Cleyn for the baggage- master.When they landed in La Havre, France, Mrs.Cleyn was thrilled to see the country of her ancestors for the first time.Travelling from La Havre to Paris, she noticed how every bit of land was cultivated, and here, as clsewhere, the French countryside was beautiful.In Paris they were met by Mr.and Mrs, Arnout, formerly of Hunt- ingdon.They expressed a desire to Huntingdon.In arriving in Paris, the Cleyns were surprised to see all the small cars, many of them parked on the\u2018 sidewalks, \u201cAs

fullest extent.The wit displayed in some of the small theatres such as \u2018le théâtre des chansonniers' is unequalled anywhere else in the world.Life in Paris and in France generally Is very expensive, and many people in France find it difficult to make ends meet.From Paris, Mrs.Cleyn journeyed to Nice and on the train she met an English lady from Yorkshire.She was very surprised to learn Mrs.Cleyn could speak English, because she took her for a native of the south of France.Mrs.Cleyn sald she nearly \u2018floored her\u2019 when she characterized some of her best Yorkshire picked up in Huntingdon.The whole French Riviera is \u201creally gorgeous\u201d, and she found the trips between Cannes and Monte Carlo picturesque and beautiful beyond description, Mrs.Cleyn was most impressed by the small mountain vil= lage of Eze, founded in the eleventh century.The car had to be abandoned at one point, because the streets in the ancient village are only about five feet wide and still

carpenters.Dances and card parties took place in the hall and in the winter time you would see the various players headed for the rink at seven and nine, Two games a night were played and the rink was used five or six nights a week.Our season lasted five months, so the players were able to have their share | in the old Scottish sport.In the summer softball and horseshoes were the most important

robed in scarlet cassocks white surplices and ruffs.In front of the choir walks a native boy bearing the Processional Cross of Cong.The pulpit standing on the south side is like the rest of the screen, made of oak.At the entrance to the Chancel on the north side of the Lectern hangs the flag of the Governor-General of Canada.On the south side hangs another banner, which is the Hudson's Bay

annual shooting event, was sponsored by the St.Jean Rifle Club in affiliation with the Province of Quebec Rifle Association and was attended by a fairly good represen- -ation from surrounding clubs.The team marcn was composed of three members each and was shot in an off-hand position.This position, although an unusual one for a team match, was selected because it is thought to be one of the most difficult positions to Master.Dundee Team No.1, composed of George Sutton, Allan Sutton and Billy Tannahill took first place with a score of 480 out of a possible 600, Dundee Team No.2, composed of George McFarlane, Danny McFar- lane and Tom Gowdy stood second with a score of 409 and the Quebec Casting Club came in third place with a score of 397.The Dundee Rifle Club Team brought
