Biggs Speaks For Agriculture on Selective Service Over two bundred cifizens of Ontario, represenfafives of every phase of if e in tris province, met in Toronto Jan. l7fh and formed rie Commitfee for Total War. A ftatement of trie objectives of this commitfee, non-partisan, non- sectarian, non-racial, appeared ln bhis paper lasf week. Trie com- niftee is endeavoring f0 impress on members of Parliament and bhrougri tbem f0 thie Governmenf rie necessity of compulsory ser- vice in Canada. The committee urges every Canadian wbo rie- lieves thaf compulsory selective service, that will provide for trie sending of our army f0 any the- afreof war, is essenfial f0 an All Out War Effort. If urges electors to states their views f0 their Fed- eral Member of Parliament, whicb meefs this week. Among those wbo spoke was Hon. F. C. Biggs, *ho stated bis attitude toward selective com- pulsory conscription, as an agri- culturisf, as follows: I would like f0 say a word on behaîf of Agriculture. I camne f0 tris meeting, nof knowing what trie meeting was called for, but when a matter of national urgen- cy was suggested I felf if my duty f0 come. I want f0 cougrafulate trie com- mittee of pafriotic cifizeus for calling this meeting. I want f0 congrafulate tbem on trie step forward tha they are fakiug. I bave trie privilege f0 operate a 600-acre farm jusf oufside of Dundas. I wish guidance from trie Federal Goverument as f0 wbaf I should produce on that farm. We agriculturisfs, and I think I speak for trie agriculfurists of Ontario, are groping lu trie dark af trie moment. We know if is suggested we want 600 million pounds of bacon this year. We want 125 million pounds of cheese. That is quite an increase over last year, and we barely got over the hurdle with 425 million pounds of bacon and four million pounds of cheese, by cutfing off trie domes- tic market on cheese. I think trie fime bas arrived when we should bave guidance, bave leadersbip, as f ar as agri- culture is concerned. If I am nof producing trie commodities need- ed f0 win tris war on my farm, tell me so, and thaf is wbaf trie agriculfurisfs of tris Province are asking for. If if is uecessary to, swifcb from beef f0 dairy, or somne other hune, f0 hogs, or if 1 should grow soy beaus that plas- tics mnay rie produced in larges quantifies, or bakelite, or any of these tbings, thaf we may assisi on thie farm, we want f0 do if, but we have no leadership foday. We bave only an intimation trial bacon will be needed and triai cheese will rie ueeded. We want leadership. I wanf f0 împress that. Agriculture will welcome leader- ship f0 win tris war. There are other serious prori. lems arising. I am one of trie ag- riculturisfs that employs labor.I am willing f0 take my lot, as it may rie, ,for assistance in tilling trie farm and producing those ne- cessit les.. I conservatively esti- mate that 10 f0 15 per cent of tri farms thaf are good fertile farm. 1are not being tilled. We havE hundreds of fbousands of farmer tris year that will, trirougri forcE 1of non-labor, cut tbeir producfior lui haîf.

We bave no help f0 carr3 sou wifh.

The Value of Your Local Newspaper Local in Business The Canadian Statesman plays an important part in ail local affairs. It employs wage-earners whose homes are in the town from which it secures business. These wage-earners pay taxes, support chu.rches, make their contribution to local appeals, take part in commumity organizations, and spend MOST 0F THEIR WAGES WITH LOCAL MERCHANTS. It is no idie boast that it has been the means of giving well- directed publicity to this town and district. There is no business institution which gives so much free service as a local news- paper. Were a merchant asked to give the equivalent in goods that tahe newspaper gives in free service to all local organizations, he would find it impossible to meet the demand. When money is spent for printing or advertising with your local printing office, you are helping local printers to help you. You make it possible for them to serve you better. Out-of-town printing salesmen take money out of the conununity - paying no taxes, buying nothing from local stores, getting aIl they can and not caring whether you sink or siin. As merchants expect custouers to be loyal to their own connuunity in buying goods from them, so might merchants remember they, too, should follow the same ideals in regard to their local printing office. ITS GOOD BUSINESS FOR ALL 0F US! Customer goodwill in this town and district can best be developed by regular advertising in your local conxmunity new spaper. The money spent for advertising, and printed matter, goes back to local merohants in increased trade. Your dollars do double duty when spent with your local newspaper - they help you directly and others indirectly. Zbe0nubr ttirx YOUR HOME TOWN NEWSPAPER a J ,&i Cartwright Sunday School Con- vention met at Cadmus on Jan. 15th, with a fair attendance of intensely interested workers. Dr. R. P. Bowles chose as his theme, "Building a New Community." HIarry Philp, Supt. of Cadmus S.S., gave an address of welcome. In the afternoon addresses were given by Rev. D. M. Stinson and Rev. E. R. McLean, O.R.E.C. re- presenfative, xvho also conducted the Round Table Conference. Lunch was served by the ladies. In the evening the pastor conducf- ed the worship service. Rev. Me- Lean installed the officers and gave an inspiring talk which should prove very helpful. An in- teresting item on the evening pro- gram was a pageant and chorus conducted by Miss Hickling. While Ronald Williams, Harry Argue, Grant Edgerton, Bobbie Philp, Elwyn Dickey and Warren Mc- Quade dressed in white gowns and holding lighted candles sang "A Baby is Sleeping," part of the Christmas story wýs gîven in tableau. The. part of Mary was taken by Doris Argue, and Gladys Gibson represented the angel. The Three Wise Men were Ivan Kip- fer. Stewart McQuade and Arnold Williams. Noreen Dickey helped in the chorus off stage. Mrs. R. Slemon celebrated bier 87fh birthday on Safurday. She is in fair health and is busy doing hier share of knitting for the Red Cross. Farmers' Forum which met in Cadmus church on Monday even- ing was well attended. After the discussion groups were over, cr0- kinole was enjoyed and lunch served.
