FORMER WHITBY WOMAN IS 98 From the columns of Saturday's is-| sue of The Evening Telegram, To- ronto, the following- interesting rer- erence is made to a former well known resident of Whitby, in the person of Mrs. James Hay. Friends, bearing gifts, joined in the celebration by Mrs. James Hay, 33 Wallace avenue, of her 98th birth- day. 'Tis doubtiul if the gentle old lady realized just what the delight- ful tea party at her bedside meant, but, propped up on pillows (for she 'has been bedridden for two years), she smiled with cyes brightened as friends approached her. It is 69 years since Esther Simmonds (as she was then) came to Canada and made her home with a sister, Mrs, B. Gibson, of Whitby, the wife of Contractor Gibson, who built the old Union Sta tion, the King strcet subway and many other structures. Later, Esther Simmonds became the wife of one James Hay, farmer, living at differ- ent periods of her life in various parts of the province, including the capital, Twelve years ago James Hay died and since then Mrs. Hay has made her home with a daughter, Mrs. A, Vancickler, and a niece, Miss Edith Gibson. Mrs. Hay was the daughter of James and Alice Sim- monds, Hampstead Heath, London, Eng. A sister, Miss Helen 'Simmonds, lives at Hampstead Heath today.

Details of the manner in which the proposed Primary Products act would be worded are not contained in the finally-carried resolution. The details it specifies, arc to be dealt with by a committee appointed from and by the boards of the United Farmers of Canada, A resolution published in the delegates handbook, outlining vossi- ble legislation, was not given appro- val. According to this resolution, later substituted in the.conyention, petition by one-fifth of the producers of any commodity would bring a Govern- | ment plebiscite among such producers as to whether they "desired compul- sory pooling. Should the vote result in 'two-thirds of the vote cast fav- oring law-znforced 100 per cent. pool- ing, the commodity would be declared a commodity under the Primary Products Act. At a date set by the Government, commodity « producers would elect delegates or directors {o control marketing of the commodity in question. While no specific product is men- tioned in the approved resolution, it is generally considered that first com- pulsory pool activity will be toward marketing all grain grown in Sas katchewan through the Wheat Pool Directors of the Saskatchew Wheat Pool, with whom the U directors must "stand ready to act haye declared no definite stand.
