PAGE FOUR THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3Oth, 1930 PROTECT YOUR FARM MACHINERYI Farm macbinery is o!ten SadlY neglected when not in use. It is flot uncommniof to see binders, cultiva- tors, grain drls, plows, etc.. le! t out ail winter in the field wbere tbey were last used or ini the barnyard. Here they are exposed to the sun, ramn and snow. The depreciation from such exposure is more than the wear caused by use. Ready for COLD WEATHER? CAULKING and WEATHERSTIPPING Before the severe weather sets in, have your bouse equipped wth caulking weatberstrlP in order to keep out drafts. EXbperience teaches that a bouse properly caulked and fitted wth the rlght kind of weatherstrip can be kept warm with about 20% less fuel. This makes it a good investment.

McCullough Describes in a Most Fascinating Manner His Visit to This Ancient Palace in Scotland ('IiS.iw itt tlie kind î.rniission f l 1Hi , ia iItin p ç t) Leaving Scotland's hoary !ortress and the glories o!flier modemn me- morial for ber hundred thousand dead, let us go by way o! tlie Royal Mile, as did the kings and queens and lesser folk long ago, to rare old Holyrood. True it is tbat tlie great personages wbo illumine the pages o! Scottisb hi.story did not travel so comnfortably nor so fast as we mod- erns in our capacious charabancs and motors, nor had tbey such care- f ree hearts as we o! tlie Canadian par-y. Ail were intent on seeing and sens- ing the n.iins o! the venerable abbey o! Sanctae Crucis and the Chapel Royal, and the romantid castle o! H-olyrood bouse, wbere the memories o! Mary sill live in little rooms that are invested wii-h more human in- terest tlian any like royal suite la all the world. When we came to the foot o!fi-be Canongate we noted a peculiar plac- i.ng o! the causeway stones. These mark the Girth strand or boundary line o! the sanci-uary o! ancient Holyrood abbey. In the long ago many a man liard pressed by the minions o! the law passed from dan- ger into security as he crossed i-bis seli-same line into bis 'ci-y of refuge." The coming o! the Reformatiofi in the sixi-eenth century changed i-be 1good old custom sadly, for none but debtors unable or unwilling i-o paY mîght take advantage o! asylum within the Sanci-uary Gir-h. When ixnprisonxnent for debt was abolished lin 1880, the need for fliglit into the zone o! sa!ety afforded by Holyrood becamne unnecessary, but sill the riglit of sanctuary within the bounds o! the abbey lands persisted and will i continue until the crack o! doom. The learned ones o! the party (and i-le Macs were well represen-ed> were able to tell us somnetbiiig about the founding o! the abbeY, which will likeiy interest the reader as much as 1it did the writer. In i-le charter. among a great many other privileges and responsibilities, there xvas awarded i-oi-be canons o! tlie f oun- dation o! Holy Cross the riglit o! trial or ordeal by duel, fire and water. The duel took place in the presence of the king and the victor was. o! course, the innocent party to tlie dispute. The ordeal by fire would have tested the endurance of the most stoical Iroquois o! our western world or i-be equally impas- sive fakir o! the older east. The accused was !orced to, walk barefoot and blindfolded over no !ewer than nine glowing plouglishai'es and carry a superheated iron baîl in lis hands of varying weighi-, according i-o i-le enormii-y o! the alleged crime. if lie came i-hrough all rigit lie was adjudged to be not guilty. The third mei-lod was even more effective iii securing a iclear and "1speedy judg- ment," for i-he vici-im, was bound liand and foot and forthwith tlirowi into tlie water-if the accused float- ed, lie was, perforce, whoily inno- cent. This procedure became quite popular in dealing witl i wtchcrai- which ,after ail, was less horrible than the lai-er burnings in New Eng- land.

Carlisle, President of Company in Canada, and Other Distinguished Guests Present at Banquet Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. took occasion to honor fourteen o! its employees who had been with the compaiiy twenty years, by holding a banquet at the Balmoral Hotel Fr1-, day evening. Ahl employees of the company for five or more years werc privileged to attend this gathering. A. M. Hardy, superintendent o! the local plant, who presided, reviewed briefiy the history and growth o! the rubber business in Bowmanville dur- ing the past 32 years. Other speakers included E. H. Koken, Geo. McCrea, and C. H. Car- lisle. In is remarks Mr. Carlisle stated that despite the fact that the United States and England had un- employment problems o! vast pro- portions, Canada, aithougli it bas its own problem, was f ortunate in be- ing today in a better position than Imost countries in the world. un ing to the present depression Mr. Carlisle endeavoured to give what be considered the reasons. A lot o! people lie said stated that modemn machinery was the cause o! unem- ployment and depression whlle others buying on the instaliment plan was tbe cause but while tbese two things were perbaps partly re- sponsible the reai reason was the Consolidation o! capital. This lie stated was the worst evil of tbe day. rhe consolidation o! tliree industries lie stated eliminated the personnel o! two o! tbese companies. Capital w.as essential to business but it must be rightly used. It was flot to the interest of capital itsel! or to the country at large to combine capital and thus make unemployment. Con- tinuing lie stated that lie thouglit that in tbe future the western farm- 2r wvould not get more than 75 cents a bushel for lis grain but that lie would be able to live just as well on that with tbe ever decreasing costs of production and the ever decreas- ing cost o! commodities tlian wlicn lie was getting $2.50 for lis wheat. [he buying on the instalîment plan he said was harmful in that a person Ibuying in this manner was mortgag- ing the future and was buying at one trne something whicli would take luture earnings to Ipay for. The employees who received the 20 year goid pins were: A. M. Hardy. A. H. Fletcher, H. Pye, W. Robbins. fH. Richards. W. W. Short. W. H. Thickson. W. H. Widdicombe. S. O'Brien, F Oke. Miss E. S.
