Milîs Married 57 Years (St. Marys Journal-Argus) Fifty seven years ago today, (Jan. 20) a young couple walked up the aisle in St. James Anglican Church in Paris, Ontario, and were united in wedloek by the late Rector, Canon Brown. The couple was W. J. and Mrs. Milîs, wbo for more than forty years now have been esteemed resi- dents of St. Marys. Mr. and Mrs. Milîs since taking up residence in the Stone Town have neyer lost an opportunity to serve their adopted community, Mr. Milîs in the Masonie Lodge, Rotary Club and in St. James Church, and Mrs. Milîs as accompanist and director in innumerable theatrical produc- tions. Both are still enjoying fairly good healtb. Coun. Helen Wilson, St. Marys, and Mrs. Geo. Kessler of New York City, are daugbters, and there are four grandchildren. By way of marking their anni- versary, friends of Mr. and 'VIrs. W. J. Milîs gathered at the home of this estimable couple's daugh- ter, Mrs. Lex Wilson, on Thurs- day evening, Jan. 20. The party was very informaI, the guests .gathering around the fireplace and engaging in reminiscences and other topies in which both Mr. and Mrs. Milîs recalled many interesting occasions of their fam- lv life. Both Mr. and Mrs. Milîs are enjoying very good bealth for their ages. Mrs. Milîs who is the former Miss Kate Howell of Paris, Ontario, is 82, and her hus- band who was born at Enniskil- len. near Bowmanville, is 83. Mr. Milîs walks to work eacb morn- ing to carry out his duties in the office of the St. Marys Cement Co. In the winter they close up their comfortable bouse in the East Ward and take up residence in the Royal Edward Hotel. Their suite there the past week xvas like a florist's shop, so many were the bouquets of flowers received. Be- fore the gathering concluded shortly before 2 a.m. Mr. J. S. Lind proposed a toast to the bride o! fifty-seven years ago and Mr. Milîs replied. Mrs. Wilson assîst- cd by Miss Lena Hyde served a delightful lunch.

LDVEKIYBUI Y BUSINIESS, by It is a well known fact that actors, musicians and enter- tainers thrive on applause. Just as entertainers respond to applause, so ail of us crave and respond to occasional praise. Yet how seldom it oc. curs to us to praise others! Day after day we go along taking their fine qualities and good work for granted. Even their outstanding accom- plisbments do not always draw from us the commenda- tion they deserve. Yet when we do praise someone, we see that it al- ways has a magical effect. In. stantly he or she glows with pleasure. And this in itself is sufficient reward for our thoughtfulness. But our words of apprecia. tion have more Iasting effects. They help people develop self-consciousness. They in- spire greater loyalty. And they promote happier, pleas- anter relationships on every hand. The contribution which the life insurance business makes to national welfare has been widely praised by sucb prom- inent personalities as Win. ston Churchill, W. L. Mac- Kenzie King and the late Franklin D. Roosevelt. Looking Forward By R. J. Deachman We are standing at the dawn o! a new year, looking forward, won. dering wbat will bhappen in the year whicb lies ahead. We are not alone in Ibis world, we bave neighbours and much o! our hap- piness depends on them. It is a more closely knit world than ever before. This is true despite tbe fact that there are now large areas in wbich At would be diffieult for a Canadian to put bis feet. We have, bowever, reached the time in wbich even those who close their doors exert a profound in- fluence on our lives and, as we look forward 10 the coming year, we wonder what will bappen a- mong our friends and neighbours and among those wbo, for cer- tain peculiar reasons, do not want us to know very mucb about them. I arn convinced that tbe sit- uation in Europe is mucb better than it was a year ago. There are signs that the light is break- ing. We hear now o! movements for the expansion o! brade hetween Russia and otber counînies. Il is not impossible that this movement may extend to this continent, and before the year is over we may be exchanging Canadian produets for Russian produets and taking Russian goods or Russian gold in exchange. Nor are conditions worse in tbe aneas in whicb the armies of East and West now face each other. There is eveny prospect for even- tual clashes where lwo upposing foirces are in contact but, when the break is long in coming, we are safe in assuming that the chances for it are getting less and less. AIl is not smooth going in Sovietland. In a "People's Re- public" a despot has a difficult task. When we quarnel witbout political leaders in this country we throw them out of office. That may be good for them. opposition may be stimulating. The new oc- cupants o! the seals o! power may find themselves unhappy in their jobs, but it is quite different in a despotism. If the people o! Rus. sia quarrel with their réaders, the way out is normally, assassin- ation. It's a messy business at best. and a new despot is likely 10 be no better than the old one. esting part of the European pic- ture in the coming year. We may expeet for the next few years that Russia, balked in Eur- ope, faced with the prospect of a gigantie war if she brings America into the confliet, will look the other way. Some time, of course, there may be a great confliet be- tween East and West with the Pacifie Ocean as its base but that is a matter for a distant day, it is not likely to bring us trouble in 1949. Meanwbile tension in Europe may slaeken. confidence may re- turn. America will continue aid on a gradually reducing scale. Britain is planning 10 reach a self- supporting basis by 1952. France one o! the richest of the countries of Europe moves more slowly but tbere is hope. Even Italy is im- proving. There are islands of progress like Switzerland and Swcden, Holland and Belgium. Spain, another despotism, is a land o! blight and bopelessness. but even here the recovery of Europe would belp. We are not yet in the open but there are faint streaks of dawn. By this lime next year there may Ibe a far more cncouraging sign and the man who writes this message next year may well proclaim clearer skies abcad for 1950. the signs point that way even now. Executive Tightened Toronto Star Limitedl The Ontario Gazette, Jan. 22, carries two columns of officiai notices effecting the future man- agement and control of The To- ronto Star Limiteci and The To- ronto Star Realty Limited. Appli- cation is made 10 amend existing by-laws whicb in each case above, aims to reduce the number of the Board of Directors from seven to fiye. The new setup ineludes a Chair- man of the Board andi decisions o! the tightened executive are to be carried out by' the President. The Star organization was the creation of the late Joseph Atkin- son, born in Newcastle, who on bis death lett the multi-million enterprise to be operated for charitable enterprises. The Presi- dent, H. C. Hindmarsh, is a son- in-law of the founder. Osh. Civil Servants Apply for Local Credlit Union A notice in the Ontario Gazette o! Jan. 22, lists the application o! Dominion civil servants in Osh- awa for a certificate of incorpora- ton in the naine of The Oshawa Dominion Civil Servant's Credit Union Limited. Credit Unions have increased very rapidly in Canada during the past decade and have proved uni- formly successful in pooling mu- tual funds for personal loans, Do- minion civil servants in most local centres include Post Office staffs and the Customs and Ex- cise Brancb. It has not been dis- elosed whether neighboring towns will be ineluded in the terms of the charter. Pulpwood Being Cut in Durham Forest Reserve More paper to write more newsi and sundry comments is the way Ed Youngman put it when he told Wednesday of the current eutting o! pulpwood in the Durham For- est Reserve near Pontypool in thej Ganaraska Tract. Ed was showing educational films in Bowmanville. High Scbool when interviewed. These films on Reforestation and Conservation will be shown a- mong the schools of Durham County. The Pontypool sage went on to say: Puipwood is now being cut from thinnings in Durham Forest, near Pontypool. An estimated 200 cords will be eut and shipped dur- ing 1949. The Ganaraska River Conserva- tion Authority now owns or has Linder option, over 3000 acres of land. The extensive use of tree plantîog machines will assist in reforesting this rapidly expaod- ing projeet. Some years must pass however, before the influence of the trees will check the floods and soil erosion. Reforestation and Conservation films are now available and being shown 'by the Department 10 var- bous sehools and clubs in the Dist- rict. The Department timber sealers are very busy duriog the winter Lmonths measuring ail timber cul from Crown Land. There are 14 active licensed operations whlch will yield 10 to 15 million board feet, in addition to about ion smafl operators, including farm. ers who are cutting under tlie authority of Cutting Permits. Tlie season has been favourable for both operators and the Depart. ment, although ooldýr weather will be essential for the log haul which will commence as soon as winter roads are in shape. YOUR EYvES and Vision t Rewritteri from previous copyrights ol C. H. TUCK Optometrisi Disney Bldg. (Opp. P-0.) Oshawa, Phone 1516 NJ. 40 When it was said that "the greatest loss of time is eaused through minor ills,"~ a great truth was expressed, yet how many avail themselves of the warnings sounded through minor ilîs and because these warnings remain unheeded, something more fixed and serious must follow. How many, oh, how many must be advised the third or fourth time to have certain attention and stili must persist against sane reason- ing in a self willed manner which can only prolong their discomfort and perhaps be the cause of their error becoming fixed and in later years a permanent disability.

There is a more a- bounding freedom under demoe- racy than there could be under despotism. Tbe barriers in lime may break and ideas begin 10 pass back and forth between Russia and ber neighbours. The curse o! despotism is that il stifles thougbt. Russia has other tasks. She is pushing ber Communism in the far East. China may quite poss- ibly become a Communist nation but there is no hope, under Com- munism, o! turning China mb oa happy and prosperous country. The Communists bave promised 10 break up the land holdings and distribute themn among the Chinese people. Il is a bopeless task. Thirteen acres in China is a large farm, split that once or twice, what have you? A good many people in China own Iheir land, thal is only a small area, an acre or lwo, they live in hope- léss poverty. The population is rapidly increasing, Communism is not likely 10 introduce any greal fundamental change whicb will increase the standard o! living or take the Chinese out o! Ibeir misery. If Russia moves East she will bave plenty to engage ber attention. Nor is Russia wilhout trouble at home. Manshal Tito, the Yugoslav Prime Minister, is rather restless.
