large ly by farming that she still works six acres of fruit and vegetables and finally that she spent five years as a solicitor for the agricul tural board with a farm background such as this it is small wonder that miss bennett knows the needs and wants of the farmer and is deter mined if elected to work with them and for them at ottawa i have always been close to farm life miss bennett says and even today when i must make my liv ing in legal work it is the hours 1 work on my land that i really en joy i was called to the bar in 1030 when the depression had ust got started and my work on

brought me in close touch wtli agriculture and 1 came lo kn6w what the farmers were for ced to endure the admiration and respect i gained for them 1 have never lost in ifljcl the year her fatiicr died mms bennett decided to enter priv ate practice and she fulfilled a promise made to him to prac tice in halton county since that time slid has been in partnership with loltoy dale k c in the town of

me determined that some day i would get into a position where i could do my best to sec that novcr again would they suffer as they did then too often has agriculture been the stepsister in tho canadian economy 1 want to do my part to see that that relationship never re turns but miss bennetts qualifications for the position of progressive- conservative member of parlia ment for halton are even broader than so far indicated she has mado her own way 1b the legal profession for many years and thus is admirably fitted to represent business as well u agriculture for her interests have been well divided between town and country it follows then that she knows exactly what each group needs for good government widely known as miss bennett is it might be well at this point to trace briefly a little of her back ground daughter of the late rev and mrs clifford bennett of nelson township miss bennett was kom in st george brant county but her life ever since has been closely auled to that of halton her father being s minister much of miss bennetts early life was spent in one town or another as he travelled on his circuit the late mr bennett preached in milton from 1900 until 1010 and his daughter spent the first four years of her life there from this bit of information laughs mlas bennett anyone who cares to can figure out my age pretty closely miss bennetts public school car eer started in wlarton and ended in port colbome while her high school years began in port col- borne and came to a close in ches- ley she then went to the univer sity of toronto victoria college and graduated in 1020 then came a year of music and then osgood hall from which she graduated in 1030 she was then called to tho bar in november of that year and a high spot of the ceremony was the fact that the late viscount ben any individual in the country what women want and need politically miss bennett has also spoken oil through the province on behalf of the womens institute add to this an
