There were ail kinds o! races for boys and girls, a wonderful mawching drill by Guides and Brownies, and stunts by each of the four Guide patrols. Jean Wilson's patrol won first prize with Patsy Moffatt's a close second.

Health but in his let- ter he stated his wholehearted backing o! anything the commit- tee would do toward recognizing the men and womem who had been in the services. The secretary read the minutes o! the meeting held by the con- mittee appoimted by the council a!ter which the !ollowing busi- mess was transacted: A Township Committee was set up composed as follows: E.

CLARKE LITERARY MEETING On Thursday night, Feb. 14th, 1946, the third Literary meeting was held under the leadership o! Wilda Hooey. The meeting open- ed with the singing o! "O Can- ada," followed by a word o! wel- came by the president, Joan Har- mess. The minutes o! the last meeting were then read by the secretary, Jean Turner. The third edition o! the OaCiS was read by the editor, Wallace Lihau. Wilda Hooey and her group dressed in white paper skirts decorated with hearts sang their group song to the tune o! "There's Somethimg About a Soldier." The scene changed as Pete Chmara read verses containing a brie! sketch o! the character o! those in the group., The girls o! the group then !avored us by singing "Take Me Out to the Hockey Game." I N ~4% ~OUJ~OO~ In the average family, just about 35 cents out of every food dollar go for dairy products like milk, butter and cheese. Each member.of the family uses, in one form or another, about 500 quarts of milk a year. To meet the need for fresh milk atone, Ontario's milkmen delîver over a million quarts daily! So the facts seem to show that every family relies on the dairy for a service it just couldn't get along without. But figures can't tell the real story. Just ask yourself what you would do about breakfast and the baby ... about lunch and dinner and your refreshing cup of tea ... if the rnilk didn't corne regularly! And when you think of milk in terms of your budget, remember.,. . thanks to the Government milk subsidy, you pay two cents less per quart today than in 1942. Glen- Rae Dairy Phone 444 Bowmanvillo Dick Wood then told the very in- teresting story o! Valentine's Day. Lorraine MacDonald rendered a beautiful solo "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Smow." The group then gave a medley o! waltzes in- cluding "Apple Blossom Time," "Mexicali Rose," "Let Me Cal You Sweetheart." The mext number on the program was a skit made up very skillfully by one o! the members o! the group as to what goes on at the rink when the boys are preparimg for a hockey game. The group then sang "Let the Rest of the World Go By." While preparng for the play, Arlene Boyd !avoured us with three piano solos. One o! the most humorous plays ever presented emtitled "Squaring it with the Boss" was then acted out by the !ollowing cast: Junior West, Wilda Hooey, Lorraine MacDonald, Keith Wood , Bill Found and Joan Harmess. The group then repeated their group song to the tune of "There's Something About a Soldier." The meeting was brought to a close by the singing o! "God Save the King" followed by a Valentine party which everyone enjoyed. Farm Forums Discuss Distribution Methods Durham county is still keeping up the good work as to attend- ance at the Forums. Fifteen For- ums met and 285 people discuss- ed the following, "In which way or ways can the unnecessary steps between producer and consumer be eliminated?" The answers were very inter- esting and showed clearly that the farmers don't see the sense o! several cream trucks and bread wagons travelling over the same ground when one would do. They also !eel that much o! the middle- man 's work could be cancelled and the work done by commercial travellers could mostly be done by mail. Although they agree it pays to advertise they feel that the advertising is overdone and costs too much because o! that. The natter o! spread in price between producer and consumer could be cut down by the con- sumer learning ta come to central markets and buying larger quan- tities. Wesleyville could mot see how amy change could be made ta im- prove the presemt set up. No. 4 Darlington says "Sell co- opeÉatively." Shaw's wants it made possible for the farmer to be able to sel his own products. Much fault was !ound in many cases because there are too many grades for eggs and think that more grading stations should be created. Welcome Club concluded that greed was the root o! all the trou- ble and a change in human nature would be a good way ta stop it. This Forum also advacated the selling o! eggs by the pound. That's quite a variety o! thought for one week. ST. PAUL'S W.M.S. St. Paul's W.M.S. met on Feb. 19 in the home o! Mrs. Harold Ferguson, Queem St., with the pre- sident, Mrs. Kenmeth Wing, pre- siding. Reports were read show- ing good pragress. Mrs. Robert Hethenington's group was in charge a! warship service, Mrs. Whitmnee, Mrs. Ar- mistead. and Mrs. S. McAllister taking part. Miss L. Hambley o! Winnipeg gave a very instructive and in- teresting address an her work as a missionary in West China. Miss Hambley was 39 years in China and lias seen great changes in thej social and religiaus life o! that country. Unless you and I are diferent where's a different world ta cane I from? Campalgn Plannd Te Railse $2000000 To Conquer Cancer A campaign to raise $2,000,000 to conquer cancer will be launch- ed in Ontario in -April for the medically sponsared five-point prograin o! the Ontario Cancer Treatment and Research Founda- tion, in collaboration with the Ontario Branch o! the Canadian Cancer Society. Outlining plans for the appeal to begin April lst, Arthur R. Ford, chairman o! the Foundatfon stat- ed that four out o! five cases o! the dread disease-which is the second leading cause o! death in this province-are curable in- ear- ly stages. He pointed out that at the same time the Canadian Can- cer Society and the Ainerican Cancer Society would each press forward with a national cam- paign, red-lettering that period as the first great international an- slaught on one o! the aldest death- deahing scourges o! the human race. "The administration and oper- ation o! fully-equipped cancer clinics at suitably selec.ted cen- tres will be the first objective o! the Ontario Foundation," stated Mr. Ford. "Other objectives are: To organize and comduct cancer prevention clinics where requir- ed; to pay a portion o! the cost of treatment a! cancer for those needimg financial help; ta pay travelling expenses to and from clinics if needed; and to conduct an energetic program of research in Ontario in the subject o! can- cer." Organized less than two years ago, the Ontario Cancer Treat- ment and Research Foundation has sponsored 13 research pro- jects mow taking place in Queens, Western and Toronto Universities, and in the Women's College Hos- pital, Mr. Ford explained. The Foundation has also provided ad- ditiomal equipment for existing cancer clinics. The members are a group of representative citizens o! the province, working in close collaboration with a medical ad- visory board o! 24 o! this pro- vince's outstqnding specialists in every phase o! the disease. "Activities to date represent a small beginning" Mr. Ford said, "but they serve to indicate the tremendous field of work to be undertaken by layman and phys- ician together, if the achievable victory over negligence, finan- cial restrictions and lack o! equip- ment and training is to be real- ized." The first cancer centre in King- ston is being elaborated and de- veloped with a "Pilot" clinic where treatment and follow-up work will be undertaken. This should be in operation by next summer, if sufficient support is forthcoming, according to Mr. Ford. He indicated that research would be an important phase o! the clinic's operations. Other treatment and diagnostic centres at strategically situated points throughout the province are planned to follow. A highly ad- vanced system o! report and con- sultation with,-Ontario physicians for diagnostic, treatment and sta- tistical purposes, is also in pro- cess o! preparation. "As to research-with the dis- covery o! atomic energy and the development and availability o! a substance at Chalk River, Ontario, containing the elements o! rad- ium used in treatment, possibil- ities during the coming years challenge the imagination," Mr. Ford said in concluding his state- ment. "Ontario has specialists mot to be out-ranked anywhere in the world. With the necessary public support for equipment and re- search, such as the two million dollar campaign in April would provide, we should be well on Bl -Co. t. Expand And Improve Rural Telepluone Service As the first stage kn a $10,000,- 000 prograni to expand and in- prove rural telephone service. The Bell Telephone Company o! Caný- ada has added 5,400 more rural telephones to its system In 1945, it was announced this week. Carried out in spite of the shortage of materials and man- power, these additions bring the total o! rural telephones served by the company ta the record high o! more than 56,000 at the begin- ning o! 1946. And there are also approximately 110,000 rural sub- scnibers o! independent compan- ies with access ta Bell limes through connecting arrangements. It is proposed durkng the next few years to reduce the number o! telephone subscribers on a rural telephome lime, and this alone will require over 1,000 circuit miles o! additional wire, with thousands o! pale replacements, cross-arms, etc. This reduction in load will enable existing rural telephone users to get an improv- ed service, and will be carryimg out the recommendations made by subscribers themselves in an- swers received from a rural opin- ion questionnaire circulated by the Bell Telephone Company in 1945. 10~1 pany p;ays the coat of extendlng pales on public hlghways at least hall a mile per applicant. Furth- ermore, poles on private property leading in from the highway wlU be supplied free Up to 750 feet. Beyond 750 feet, there is an instal- lation charge of $5.00 per 250 feet. Ini addition ta this $10,00,00 prograni, rural telephones will be comverted as rapidly as possible to the sanie system as that in large cities. This will permit the instal- lation of telephone sets which are more convemient ta use than the present types. In order to provide for growth 2-UL~ on existing routes, a further two tothree thousand circuit miles of prpre wire will be required, and to ex- FR MA? tend service beyond present FODNO O routes, it is estimated that almost M@fttmfl 3,000 more miles of poles and wireà".0 must be constructed. This latter $2.50 to $4. change will encourage the pro- *, vision of service in the fringe ar- m iN ' eas of exchanges.
