work at last in the mountains of the west snow is now recpgnlzed as a billiondollar crop the dif- ference between disaster and pros perity for millions of people there melting snows provide water for reservoirs and irrigation ditches in 11 western states so nec essary are they to the economy that even reluctant snowflakes are being enticed to earth by weathermaking airplane pilots who shoot moisture- laden clouds with pellets of dry ice and other agents this wooing may not always work but the effort is being made across the nation wherever ski enthusiasts gather in winter sports resorts- arrival of the snowflake means a successful season non- arrival means financial loss mean rquis i is marquis lafayette forgotten by americans have americans forgotten lafay ette in an obscure private cemetery in paris across the city from popular tourjst haunts his grave lies cov ered with a blanket of massachu setts soil brought from historic bunker hill and marked by an american flog yet reports come that no visitor from the united states has called at tiny cimetiere de picpus for nearly a year it was scarcely more than a cen tury ago when the news of lafay ettes death threw this nation into deep wellnigh universal mourn ing president andrew jackson or dered the same military honors ac corded him as marked the passing of president george washington 35 years earlier on every army post navy sta tion and ship 24 guns were fired at daybreak and throughout the day every half hour until sunset a lone gun boomed solemnly officers wore bands of black for sixrnonths origin of agony it is strange that a word which denotes anguish and intolerable pain should have its origin in a festive sport event yet this is the case with agony in ancient greece agon was an assembly- at games and athletic contests agonia was the contest or struggle for the prize from the meaning a struggle for victory in the games agonia grad ually broadened to mean any physi cal struggle an activity fraught with difficulty as well our own word agony borrowed from this source meant struggle or anguish of mind then the throes of death and hence any extreme bodily pain start plants early early january is a good time to start cabbage lettuce and broccoli plants in seed boxes boxes should be kept in a warm room until seed sprout however when the first plants come through the soil or- just before they come through move boxes to a cooler place where the plants wflt come up fn bright day light to produce stocky plants they shouldbe thinned to about two inches apart as soon as they are up three level tablespoons of ferti lizer mixed into three inches of top soil for each box two feet square is a good rate esqucsmg conservatives have euchre um dance thirtysome odd tables of euchre players were on hand at a conser vative rally held in stewarttown hall last friday night along with the many who came along to dance this made one of the biggest crowds to ever attend anything in the es queuing township hall n hand to greet the guests was the president of the esqueslng pc association nelson robinson and conservative candidate forhalton sybil bennelt after an enjoyable time play ing cards lunch was served before the dancing began mr robinson called miss bennett to the platform to awards the- euchre prizes and called on her for a few words she thanked those present for such a very wonderful turnout and said she hoped that they had all en joyed themselves she felt that while the evening was primarily a social one yet that she would like to speak for a few minutes to them about the political situation and the forthcoming election which she termed as one of the most important since confederation miss bennett recalled to mind the many flagrant abuses of power by the present re gime and reiterated the conserva tive claim that 500000000 could be lopped off the tax bill without affecting any social or other vital services she said it was no secret that once again in desperation to hold on to office liberal leaders were saying here in halton that the conserva tives would stop family allowances and other social services this in direct contradiction of what their leader prime minister st laurent had said in the closing days of the last session quote that it is now clearly understood that all par ties in canada subscribe to the prin ciples of carrying on canadas soc ial services miss bennett then answered the old claim that any other government but the liberals would cause a depression by point ing out that canada had been only one of the victims in a- depression that had been worldwide and had affected every country in the world the very foot that the liberal gov ernment had collected over 100 million dollars per month in taxes more than they needed in the first two months of the year proved that it was quite possible to reduce taxes by half a billion she also polned out in refution of it that the liberal government had held office for the first two years of that depression a fact that their propagandists managed most con veniently to overlook she spoke also of thefarm situation where the present regime had managed to lose all of our countrys traditional overseas markets in closing miss bennett asked for the support of everyone regardless of their poli tical affiliations and promised to give her utmost to further the in terests of the county as a whole the evening concluded with dan cing to the music of doris hulls and her orchestra hope diamond named for its onetime london owner the 44carat hope diamond is presumed t part of
