Commentig an the lack a! attrac- tive surroundings af many fanm homes, Dr. G. I. Christie, president o! the O. A. C. said at the Harti- cultural Convention, "It (s nat money that people need ta make farm home beautification possible. It's the de- sire." The same neasanig alsa ap- plies ta town fol1k. Cultivate that desire ta beautify yaun home sur- roundings. Gentlemen may prefer blondes, but they don't always remain gentle- men.

Same metbod has ta be found ai enabllng the fanmers ta dis- pose af their produce on a profitable basis. either by raising the pnice cf what tbey have ta sell, or by lowen- ing the pice ai what they have ta buy. As long as the largest industry in the country and in the world. which supports about hall the popu- latian, is being conducted at a loss, a returnuta prosperity is impossible., Aubses a! Old Age Pension Act have came ta light in vaiotus parts ai the province. The Provincial Sec- retany bas written to the Middlesex Old Age Pensions Board ta draw at- tention to the fact that the Provin- cial Board bas discovered cases in whicb property bas been transferred ta sons and daughters in order that parents might receive their Old Age Pension. He cites one case in ivbîch application was made by a widow a short time aiter her husband's death. She ovned 100 acres ai land and was entitled toalal praceeds from the sale of macbinery and other things. "And there are a number ai athers who 1 are drawing the pension wbo made their property aven ta their children' or relatives," the Provincial Depart- ment says. In the specific case ne- ferred ta the pension bas been can- oelled and arrangements bave been made ta have the money already <rmnted repaid. Merchants are in business ta make a living, but ta make that living they must first give service, so thein first objective 15 always "ta serve and please." The laborer excbanges bis labor fon bis wage. The capltalistI exchanges bis money for bis inter-j est. The manufacturer excbanges his pnoducts far bis cast ai produc- tion plus profit: the prof essional man excbanges his services fan bis fees or bis salary; the store keeper exchanges bis goads for cost plus service charge. Everybady is in business for bimself by beinî' in busi- ness fan somebady else. Like the public officiaI, the merchant is in business for sucic'ty and there ore eveny member ai that society is bis employer, bis boss. One ai the com- pensations ai business is that pub lic recognition and appreciation, name ta none sooner than ta the busiessnman who really serves. A flourlsbing trade (s synonymaus wtb public trust and confidence. Service must ever precede success in busi- neus. Keep in good humor. It (s nat great calamities that embitter exis- tence, it (s the petty vexations, the small jealousies, the little disap- paintments, the minar misenles, that make the beant heavy and the tem- per saur.

Without the church, your cornrunity would degenerate into a materialistie group of selfish individuals. It is the church that provides a background of ideals, and unity of purpose. The church is at the source of countIess benefits that you take for granted and enjoy daily. Without your support, in turn, the church would cease to exist.
