Canadian Club (Continued fram page 1) the School at present nine of the building trades are presently taught. There are also a barber school, coaking schaol, a u t o mechanics s c h o o 1, business courses and plans are made for five printing trades with athers ta be creat«d in due course. Ca- operation has been established with the Ontario Apprenticeship Board whereby the age class has been lifted so far as returned men are concerned. This means that a returned man can take a six month's course and on attaining status as a three year apprentice can enter the trade as a three year apprentice and take a job earning real wages. iEëpansion will include courses inwatchmaking and repairing, electrical testing and mainten- ance, radio operating, stationary engineering, air conditioning and refrigeratian, Matriculation, a baker's school, welding school, hair dressing, dress designing, homemaking, plastics and handi- crafts. The range will include bath men.and women who have seen service and advisory com- mittees have been set up nat only ta give individual help but ta find work an completion of studies. These committees embrace an equal number from employers and trade unions in each line of activity. Their concern will also embrace preventing an over- supply of candidates in any par- ticular line of activity. Budget Adve The Department has also sur- veyed the*probability of many re- turned men, having post discharge funds, being perplexed as ta haw ta spend the maney. Whether ta devote it ail ta setting up a homè or ta devote part ta learning a trade. Whether ta yield ta im- mediate pleasures in buying a car or budget ta take care of the future on a long range plan. In ail this, as part of necessary planning the Department and cammittees are prepared ta affer the best of advice and helpful assistance. 1 In conclusion, Mr. Porter deait at considerable length wlth land reclamation and reforestation as one of the great concerns of the Department of Planning and De- velopment. He gave an intimate view of these projects by refer- ence ta the Ganaraska Survey with which many of the audience were closely familiar. In present- îng his camprehensive outline, the speaker used a relief scale map ta the praject showing in detail the plans for reclamation. There were other areas in the province, natably the watersheds of the Grand and Thames Rivers, ta be deait with on similar lines. Late- ly a delegation had visited the Muskingumn develogment in Ohio ta learn the experience of plan- -ners in that area. Co-operation To restore land, ta provide jobs, ta maintain balanced production, goes ta the very roat of what any gavernment can do in the way of war planning. Mr. Porter touched on anly some of the broad prob- lemns caming under the purview of his Department but held that fui- filment of the objectives wauld require years of closest ca-opera- tian of ail people, of gavernments, of men of experience, trained technicians, ail animated with the indispensable attributes of com- mon sense, 'vision and the will ta tackle, promote and finish the job. The vote of thanks for an elaquent and informed address was ex- pressed by Ross Stevens. The C 1 u b convened under Chairman Fred Hoar who in a brief valedictory priar ta the business session, thanked ail members and particularly the able Cl1u b Secretary Gordon Elliott, for loyal support during the year. Treasurer L. W. Dip- pell reported $97.27 on hand at the eginning of the year; a member- ship of 67 and a balance on hand at the moment of $126.47. For election of officers the nom- inating committee presented a siate which was unanimously adopted. Elected for the current year: President-Dr. Harold Fer- guson; Vice-Pres.-Gordon Elliott, Sec'y-Howard Jeffrey; Directors -W. Ross Strike, Gea. W. James, W. F. Rickard, Charles Carter, Sr., and ail Past Presidents. At- tendance Committee - A. M. Hardy, Dr. J. A. Butler, G. F. Annis, F. F. Morris, 0. W. Rolph and W. J. Berry. "What can I do for my coun- try?" is the spirit which brings victory. "What can I do my country for?" is the spirit which turns victary ta defeat. Jr. Farmers' Night (Continued from page 1) ers received but one sixth of the national income. In the lean years it drapped ta one tenth, which meant lessened financial support for rural institutions. The industrial revolution was making itself feit ta a greater ex- tent than ever. Lack of help has speeded up farmn mechanization, but there was a limit ta this over- capitalization on the family farm. Every new unit added ta cost ôf production and many farmers were turning ta consideration of how best ta meet the problem. Same favored larger farms, *but this again would further destroy intimate community life. The speaker referred ta a praject of this kind in the U.S.A. One farmn unit of 15,000 acres was described as a "wonderfully disastrous ex- periment." Its operatian requir- ed 3,000 seasanal workers and left only 300 stable homes, cer- tainly a destruction of cammunity Present Trends The finest values ln rural if e have sprung from the family farm and the whole structure seemst threatened by present trends. Wet have seen the exprience of indi-è vidual farms. e -have some1 knowledge of corporation farms1 as well as collective farms. s There appears ta be remotet possibility of introducing either of the latter in this country but there appears ta be a middle way. That is the development of the co-op- erative idea. Already we have seen experiments in pooling ma- chinery among farmers who stili retain individual awnership of land and their individuality in the cammunity. This reduces the overhead of machinery costs and preserves untrammeled freedom and association in community life. Mr. Linstead painted ta two or three things on the horizon that were of hapeful import. Farmers were organizing for collective ac- tion in their own interests as shown in the Federation of Ag- riculture. Much high promise also came from Farm Forums where mutual problems were be- ing discussed and real thought brought ta bear for the present and future. Fînaliy, there was the greatest promise of ail and that was the grawing interest of youth in rural probiems. The annual Rural Youth Conference at the O.A.C. and Queen's Uni- versity showed that young people were taking hold with splendid initiative and high faith in the future. Corfluding, the speaker observed that the whole problem was the concern of ail and needed the co-aperation of ail, bath in town and country. Thanixs and congratulations of the Club for a very able, thoughi- fui and informed address were expressed by Lion Russ Osborne. BOWMANVILLE SAILOR ON LEAVE PLAYS WITH PETERBORO JUNIORS (Peterboro Examiner) Two singles represented the margin 'by which the Hamilton juniors defeated the Peterboro junior team in a sudden death game at Alexandra Park, Oshawa, Saturday afternoon in a fixture for the unofficial Ontario junior titie. The heavier team from the Ambitious City won a gruelling contest by 7 points ta 5. Each team scored an unconvert- ed touchdown but Hamilton grab- bed off the victory by kicking over the Petes' line for two singles. The game was played in cold frasty weather on a gridiron blanketed with six inches of snow and the conditions were anything but favorable ta good football. However in spite of the heavy go- ing and the handicap of bad foot- ing and half-frozen fingers, the teams turned in a fine card and the battie was decidedly well played under the circumstances. Hamilton, with poundage in their favor, and the ground condi- tions favoring a plunging game depended a great deal on a couple hard-hitting buckers. The Peter- bora, youngsters had the edge in speed and in good football wea- ther believe they could have taken the scalps of the winners. Bill Edger, the Bowmanville boy who played with the Petes last season, happened ta be home on leave fromn the Navy' and the the game. Edger, of course, has had no practice with the team this season but in spite of that handicap played good football and hit the target several times with accurate farward passes. Hamilton scored their major score on a Peterbora fumble, and it was not converted. The Petes' five points were the resuit of a brilliant run by Ron Hodson who scooped up a loase bahl and dashed 45 yards through the snow for a touchdown. An attempt at converting failed. Hamilton g ot close enough twice ta boot the bahl over the Peterboro line for singles and those two points represented the margin of victory. It was that close. In addition ta Hodson and Better people right it. Eat Intelligently Eeating food that contaixis vitamins and nourisbment is eating intelligently !

THE IBRIGI-I STAIR 0F PIE&CEJA\-, In 1778, Port Hope was a trading-post, and was caled Toronto. Pour Years later, United Empire Loyalists came to settle t/iere. The name was cbanged to Port Hope in 1817, in Ibonor of Colonel Henry Hope, then Lieutenant-Governor 0/. Lpper Canada. Fromt an engraving by WH Bartiett in 1840, and now in t/eje o/m Ross Robertson collection, Toronto Public Libraries. TrODAY, the name "Port Hope" is just that .. . a port of hope for 1a suffering humanity. in lead shields in thxe great refinery at Port Hope glow tiny crystals, radiuni wrought with infinite patience from the pitchblendes of Eldorado in Canada's North. Port Hope's was the first radium refinery on the continent. Established iii 1933, it completed production of its first ounce of radium in 1936. Since that time, its precious product has gone forth like the bright star of Bethlehem to bring peace and relief from pain. Canada now leads the world in the production of radium. Igrom tiny trading-post in the wilderness to thriving, bustling town known the world over for its contribution to civilization . .. that is the history of Port Hope. And that, too, is the history of Canada ... proof of what we can do in the years to corne, when al the horrors of war are over, and the bright star of Peace shines upon a good earth. Let us have faith in this Canada Unlimited of ours. For Christmas, give Victory Bonds and War Savings Certificates and Stamps. They, too, are bright stars of ïeace, weapens of Victory, shining upon a fearless future in a Canada Unlimited.
