P. J. THURSTON. Editcr VANDELEUR "Do we need a National iVIarket- iag Act?" was the subject for dia- cuMion at the Farm Forum at the kome of the president, Mr. WiU Batoliife, Monday evening:. It was the unanimous opinion that we do, and that farmers had the right, through organization, to control markatjng of tfheir own products. Tkis, they felt, was absolutely dem- Mratic and would be beneficial to boih inter-provincial and export trade. It was interesting discussion, ^i! balance of the evening: was spent in oards and checkers. Lunch «u lerred. The thanks of the For- â- B was tendered to Jim Cargoe, ^o took his team and sle^h and leathered the people along the Hne. l%e next meeting will be held in the kail, when the Forum will be guests ti.

Mr. and Mrs. Eidg^r Buckingham •nd children of Stayner visited with Mr. and Mrs. E. Buckingham on The W.I. was held at the home of Mrs. Buckingham on Tuesday of last week, with a fair attendance. Tl>e roll call was answered with a riddle. It was d<'cided to start a rw elp e book, each member to bring eookie recipe to the next meeting to â- tart the book. Mrs. Bert Por- teous had chnrpre oif the progj-am, which consisted of a contest of WramWed fruit<< and a reading on fcolAies. TTie meeting was then closed, aftpr w^iich the hostess aarved lunch, assisted by Mrs. Wm. Seeley and Mr. Oprtrnde Seeley. He Hm Our Respect Thuie's an old saying, "What you won't do when you haven't got a gun." We had no gun, «nd wouldn't luive UM-'d it when Jimmy Skunk idl.'<i along Queen Street early Sat- iinlay night and turned up Sterne Street. We met him right in front i>r the Entcrprice office, and the iilitor made a hosty atop to one side t(j avoid a collision. Jimmy Skunk is one of our beat Canadian animals, found in every province, absolutely independent, armed for defence and not for offenco. Up minds his own business and expects others to mind tiieirs. Unafraid, he backs up for iiolwdy and expects courteous treat- Mii'iit. Ho is a useful citizea, eating <<estructive grubs and worms. While '.VI' ;ii"e not suggesting that Jimmy .'supplant our industrious friend, the iicaver, as our national animal, we dij admit he command.? a heap of lespect from us <tll and he merits every Hit of it. â€" Bolton Enterprise. "Well, .Joan, what's the scandal while I've been away??" "While you've been a\Vi.y there's been no scandal, Freddie." The British government has com- bined four railway systems into the IJritish Railways, paying the share- liolder.s with three percent guaran- teed stock. Britain needs over five billions dollars iheip, according to a U.S. state depaitment estimate. Canada, .'^outh America and the world bank are counted on to put over four bil- lion dollars of an estimated total European need of over 20 billion dollars. •^ BOWL The late Lord Tankerville was in- clined toward moroseness in his de- clining years, but was mightily cheered and sustained by sensible, niatter-of-fact philosophy of his lady. ".Ah, my dear," remarked the mel- ancholy lord one day. apropos of a friend's death, "how sad It is to see our friends going before us." "Yes," agreed the cheerful Lndy Tankerville, "but it would he mnoh <adiior if we were to go before Miem."

Put another stick of wood on the fire and make your- .self comfortable with thimble, nee- I'le and thread. Yes, you may be glad that' you afc "hemmed in" duiing the .snowy weather because a loit of ipatehing can be done with- out your fussy aunt watching to see how well you are doing it!

It's a better looking job done that way. We cannot tell you much about darning or sewing tricks in our col- umn â€" not as well as Granny could by showing you.

An Excavation Of A Huron Indian Ossuary During the month of January, the .Special Exhibition Gallery of the Royal Ontario Museum of Archaeol- ogy is displaying the results of an excavation conducted by the Museum in the summer of 1947, in Tiny Townsliip, Simcoe County, where an Indian ossuary or bone-pit was par- tially explored. It was the custom of the Hurons at the time of the arrival of the fii-.st Europeans, to bring together the remains of all those w.io had died during the preceding eiglit or ten years and, holding an elaborate, week-long ceremony, to re-inter l^eni in a large pit, burying them with many of the articles which the dead ha<l used in this life and ^vere believed to require in the lif" be- yond the grave. Such ceremonies were held, as a rule, about every ten years, at which time, all villages within a radius ai ten or twelve miles participated. The Hurons al- ways referred to the event as "T!ie Feast of the Kettle." since the essential function was to bid fare- well to the departed in a greiat, final feast. The excavation of this particular ossuary has special significance, in that it is believed to be the one assix-iated with the village called Ossossane by the Hurons, New Rocbelle by the French and La Con- ception by the Jesuits. Both the Recollect and the Jesuit missionar- ies refer to this village in their ac- counts; and Brcbeauf gives a long, detailed, eye-witness !>ccount of the "Feast of the Kettle" which occurred in lOSfi, .All evidence so far pro- duced indicates that this is the ossuary referred to by Brebeauf. but positive proof must awiiit comple- tion of the excavation. This is tile lii^t time an undis- turbed o-ssuary has been studied ac- cording to modern archaeological procedure. Skeletal material re- covered will reveal the physical make-up and pathology of the Hurons; while the specimens buried with the bones reflect the customs of the time, and particularly mirror the effects of trade with the French. As this ossuary is estimated to be about fifteen years later in construc- tion than that excavated by the museum in 1046 at Caihiague, the chniiges shown in the European trade goods are interesting. .VSK BIORE OOB1PKN8ATION FOB TUBERCULAR CATTLE Increas4Ki comi>ensation to eorree- pond, with the present vaines for tu- bercfular .cattle, retroactive to the beginning of area teats in 1947, was advocated by the annual meeting of tile Ontario Federation of Agricul- ture in Toronto on January 9. The jteflohitaoB, farooght fbnrmrd by the Ontario Hog Pnhieers Amoc- iotino, stated th*t the dominion de- patment plana to extend t«ating area; that present compenaatfea rates are those set during depres- sion years; that the counties audi- orized the test wiien compenaatfam paid corresponded more cloaely to actual cattle values.
