The books were audited and cer- tified by A. J. Dilling, CGA, as of Dec. 31, 1945. This project was sponsored by the Lions Club which voted funds for playground equipment. A strong and aggressive citizen's committee was formed, which, supported by funds from member- Statement Received from memberships --- Received from donations ---------- Received from sale of posts ---- Paid for advertising--------------- Paid for plowing and levefling of ground --------------- ------ Paid for playground equipiment - -- Paid for general expense........----- Paid for cartage and express ---- Paid for stamps ----------------- Balance in Bank of Montreal ---- Nelping Servicemnen Get Off to a Good Start in Business An interesting little book for servicemen, which, as its titie suggests, is designed to help mem- bers of the Armed Forces get off to a good start as they shed their uniformis and enter civilian if e again, has just been published by the Bank of Montreal and is being distributed to service personnel by the local branch manager, Mr. F. O. Mcllveen. Done in two colours and illus- trated with pictures in a light vein which will appeal to service- men, the bookiet will probably reach an audience wider than the service personnel to whom At is addressed because it contains much down to earth information which can be just as valuable to civilians as to those being dis- charged from the forces. In publishing the book, the Bank of Montreal recognizes that the destiny of a million Canadian veterans returning to civil if e is of vital importance to the country that the future success and pros- perity of the Dominion will be fairly well determined by the success and prosperity of this vast throng of young people. In taking this view, the Bank does not attempt to divorce all sentiment from veterans' problems, but is recognizing a well-known fact that sentiment alone will not ac- complish the tasks of rehabilita- tion. There must be a practical programme as weIl. The fact that the rehabilitation programme offered to the veteran of this war is vastly superior to that which was put into operation after World War I may easily be traced to this type of common sense. Like ahi other progressive business organizations, the Bank of Montreal is anxious to have these young men and women make a success of their civilian careers and is trying to help them do it. Early in the bookietthe veteran is cautioned to be on the lookout for schemers who would relieve himi of his service earned savings and gratuities. A full chapter discusses this question and out- lines many of the schemes now in operation and suggests that, by recognizing the pattern of a num- beir of swindles, the veteran may learn to avoid ahl dealings of this kind. The question of making a living is also discussed at length, and attention is given to the pros and cons of going into business for one's self. In addition the bookiet covers the major considerations of how to run a business to avoid many of the mistakes which often lead to bankruptcy, and in this chapter are contained many hints which can be most useful to all small businessmen. Servicemen thinking of seekîng jobs at home or elsewhere will find in the booklet some useful pointers about where to look for a job, how to apply for it and how ships and public and private do- nations, aided by much free labor, created this Memorial Park. Next summer will see great im- provements which will include erection of a clubhouse for use summer and winter. Funds -are still needed and the public are in- vited to continue donations and secure cards of membership in the club which are issued and signed at $1 per season. $ 32.15 1,310.75 1,196.50 86.49 9.65 9.00 536.03 $3,180.57 $ 376.00 2,800.57 4.001 $3,180.571 to present their story to the em- ployer iii such a manner that he will be interested in their appli- cations. The entire tone of the booklet, which incidentally is of a size to fit conveniently into the service- men's pocket, is summed up on the fly leaf where it tells the veteran "It is Your Time . . . It is Your Money . . . Be Careful With Them," Advîce which most people could take to heart. Newtonville W. 1. Planning Banquet For Returned Men A very successful meeting of Newtonville Women's Institute was held Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. C. Morris, with 25 ladies present. Much time was given to discus- sion of correspondence received from outside organizations. Agreed that a $5 donation be sent Youth Training Organization. Comfort committee reported illness of Mrs. W. Holmes, a member of long standing. February will be declared open meeting and during the month card parties will be given in the homes by the several groups as a means of raising funds. On March l3th the annual St. Patrick's Tea will be held when a bountiful supper, including hot dishes will be served, the charge 35e and 20c. The regular meeting will take place as usual, and a good pro- gram will be provided. The pub- lic is welcome. Plans were put under way for giving a welcome home party in honor of the local returned sol- diers. Committees were appoint- ed to seek the co-operation of the Men's Club and the different church societies in an effort to make this worthy project the success it ought to be. No date is as yet set. Miss J. A. Thompson took charge of the program and gave a nice talk on New Year's resolu- tions. Theh, there was commun- ity singing to help lighten the spirits; a reading, Citizenship, by Mrs. S. Thompson, and a recita- tion, Myself, by Mrs. W. D. Jones. Response to roll caîl, naming one quality essential in a good leader, included: Tact, dignity, dependa- bility, patience, pleasing person- ality, pleasant speaking voice, clear enunciation and, like a good wife, the ability to drive uncon- sciously. The social period gave much pleasure in friendly chat and ex- change of thought over the tea cups. The vote of thanks was given by Mrs. Hancock. The kindly hostess replied briefly, express- ing pleasure at having as many ladies present and said this home would always be available if ever a meeting place were sought. And so, these busy homemakers went away with minds refresh- ed and with renewed vigour for carrying out the duties awaiting them at home, these facts alone making the meeting well worth while. Farm Value Less In Field Crops The first estimate of the farm value of field crop production in Canada for 1945 as compared with the values for 1943 and 1944 has just been issued. This estimate is subject to revision and does not represent cash income received from sales but is the gross value of farm production. Several of the crops, such as mixed grains, turnips, and fodder corn, are al- most wholly utilized on the farms on which they are grown. The gross value of the princi- pal field crops on Canadian farms in 1945 is estimated at $1,098,859,- 000. This is the lowest gross val- ue recorded since 1941 but is stili almost double the 1935-39 pre- war average of $583,260,000. The 1945 value represents a decrease of $222,449,000 from the 1944 re- vised estimate. Most of this de- crease is due to smaller produc- tion, particularly in the grain crops in the prairie provinces. The value of the principal field crops in 1943 was $1,134,399,000, and in 1942, $1,179,415,000. The value of the 1945 wheat crop is estimated at $326.8 million. This is $133.6 million less than the revised 1944 value of $460.4 mil- lion. Likewise, the other princi- pal grain crops, oats, barley, rye, and flaxseed, aIl show appreciable declines in value from the 1944 figures as a resuit of reduced pro- duction. On the other hand, the 1945 hay and clover and alf alfa crops, as the resuit of increased Iproduction, are estimated at high- er values than in 1944. Miss Donalda Croasser Heads COIT Program St. Paul's C.G.I.T. met in the Primary room, Jan. l6th, with President Joan Rice in the chair. The program was under the lead- ership of Miss Donalda Creasser 1and was taken from the first wor- ship service of the study book. Our study book "Spotlight on Af- rica" was introduced by Miss Hutchinson which was very much enjoyed. The first chapter dealt with a Canadian meeting a witch- doctor. The chapter was found to be very interesting and we hope the rest will be the same. On 1behalf of the C.G.I.T. President Joan Rice thanked Miss Hutchin- son for giving them the first chap- ter of their study book. The bus- iness period opened with roll cal and minutes. Roll cail was an- swered with 14 present. We were reminded of our money for the C.G.I.T. week held in February. It was moved by Ruth Prescott and seconded by Gracie Aberne- thy that the business period be adjourned. Several contests were given by the leaders, Miss Mc- Allister and Miss Creasser. Meet- ing closed with Taps. No. 4 West Forum Favors World Co-op. No. 4 West Farm Forum met at Mr. W. Bresett's. Following the broadcast the question of the need for an international organization of agricultural producers was dis- cussed. The conclusion reached was that such an organization should be brought about. It should improve marketing pros- pects and enable farmers to plan production f arther in advance than now. The standard of living might decrease slightly here but as the general standard of living ahl over the world raised our would come back again. Such an organization should be able to help- minimize the disas- trous effects of famine in India and China. We think the farmers should give the lead to other classes in world co-operation for the good of ahl, and thereby greatly en- hapce the prospects for world peace. Number present at the meeting 13. Elmcroft Holstein Nords Win Place in Ali-Canadian Conteste The climax of the 1945 show season for Canadian Holstein Breeders were the awards an- nounced in the All-Canadian con- tests. In the 15 show classes there were 30 awards shared by 26 breeders represented from coast to coast. Two of these awards fell to an- imals bred at Elmcroft Farms, Oshawa, owned and managed by R. Ray McLaughlin, whose herd of Hoîsteins have in late years won high honors at Ontario fairs. The All-Canadian champion- ship for senior yearling bull was won by Mr. McLaughlin's Sylv- O-Gram, a top winner at ahl Black and White shows. The get of Montvic Monogram, a Mc- Laughlin herd sire, also won the Reserve All-Canadian award in the heifer class. Elmcroft herds have been con- stantly improved with prestige breeding stock until today few Canadian herds top them for quality and production. This is emphasized in the national sel- ections above noted.

Nominations Held For Cartwright Council At the annual nomination for councillors for Cartwright Town- ship, presided over by William Beacock, Township Clerk, Nestle- ton, the meeting concluded wîth the slate incomplete and a second convention was .called for Janu- ary 25th. The following candidates, Her- bert Hooey, Thomas Langfeld and Sydney Staples agreed to stand and have qualîfied for elections which take place Feb. lst. Held later than most municipal con- tests the Cartwright elections have the feature that permits a greater total vote due to a slack season in farming operations., Butter Production Falls During Month fn 1945, both creamery butter and cheddar cheese production in Canada showed a gain over 1944. The increase in butter was 3.4 per cent and the increase in cheddar cheese output 4.2 per cent. However, for the month of De- cember, 1945, the production of butter and cheese was consider- ably less than the same month a year ago. Butter showed a drop of 16.8 per cent, and cheese 42.1 per cent. Ontario actually produced 3,- 119,400 lbs. of butter in December and 1,477,100 lbs. of cheese. In Durham County for the 12 months ending Dec., 1944, 864,130 lbs. of butter were produced. In 12 months ending in Dec., 1945, the output was 880,961 lbs. of butter. This was a gain of 16,83 1 lbs. For the month of Dec., 1944, Durham produced 39,831, and for the same month in 1945, 36,845. A reduction of 2,986 lbs. in Dec., 1945.
