evening of last week it wns the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the organization of the halton branch of the ontario federation of- agriculture in support of his statement on control prices dr hannam pointed out that from the viewpoint of nn abundance of all kinds of good wholesome food at ronoonable prices the canadian consumer is one of the most fortunate anywhere ip the world food prices are not high in relation to other prices or in relation to wage rates or to the profits being made by industry mast food he stated in terms of hours of work required to purchase when we compare average hourly earnings in manufacturing industries with average prices of staple food products this fact ls borne out to suppor his conten- tion dr hannam pointed out that the average price for milk paid by the canadian consumer in lfl19 was 111 cents per quart whereas on june 1 1051 it was 1dj cents per quart in the case of butter the average price paid by the canadian con sumer in 1930 was 29 3 cents per pound and on june 1st of 1951 the average price was bfl cents in contrast to this the average hourly wages paid in canadian manufacturing industries was 42v cents in 1939 and on june 1st of this year the average hourly wage paid in industry was 1158 cents in other words in 1939 it took 15 fi minutes of working time on the part of the industrial worker to make enough money to purchase one quart of milk while in 1051 it took only 10 1 minutes of working time to purchase the same article in the case of butter it took 412 minutes of working time to bu one pound of butter in 1939 while in 1051 35 2 minutes of working time purchased the same amount of j butter others who can control their production stated dr hannam and ivhn do set or help establish their price or wage levels have been

things it is humiliating to the farmer stated dr hannam to be picked mil af t he on ly one who is not- entitled to a fair exchange value for his product in the market place and why he added should the milk distributing companies refuao to accept the ruling of an official milk board in respect to the far mers price it may be that they are making the mistake of think- ink the milk industry should be run in the interests of the milk distributor this large meeting of halton farm folk for which m j brown president of the halton federation was chairman was thrilled and de lighted by dr hannams

sqbgs i would like to add to that question and ask where are the old hymns in our church as in others the ten dency ls towards newer and less familiar hymns to me the old hymns are the best not only for their content but by association with ones childhood and with those who have passed away not only that with old hymns all the con gregation joins in the singing un familiar hymns and most of the
