NO. 4, DARLINGTON Farm Forum for this season was brought to a successful close on March 25th when the East and West groups joined in a pot luck supper in the Sunday School room of Ebenezer Church. Ap- proximately 90 persons enjoyed the delicious and abundant sup- per prepared by the ladies. Following the supper Mr. W. Rundle led in community sing- ing. Later we listened to the Farm Forum broadcast when pro- vincial secretaries across Canada gave their summaries of the last series. We were delighted to have as our guests Miss Sheila Thrush, assistant secretary of Ontario Farm Forums, and Mr. Jack Mac- pherson, farmi commentator on CBC. Miss Thrush told us some- thing of the work of the Forum office and Mr. Macpherson clear- ly outlined the place of the F.A.O. from its place in the world to its importance to the individual far- mer. A quartette consisting of Bill Rundle, Murray Osborne, Elmer Down and George Osborne, ac- companied by Mrs. Glenn Pickell, added much to the merriment of the evening's entertainment by their original parody on "Old Macdonald Had a Farm" in which the pet crops of many farmers of the community received recogni- tion. They also sang, "Stars of the Summer Night." Mr. H. F. Osborne at the piano and Mr. W. McKnight with his violin brought forth the usual burst of applause for their popular music. Mrs. R. C. Pearce's two readings, "Mother Tells Her Story" and "Father Gives His Version"~ were also much enjoyed. Following the program games were played and so an evening of varied entertainment was a happy ending for our fifth year of Farm Forum. SERVICEMEN'S DEPÉNDENTS APPRECIATE TRAIN MEALS rTo CARRY more than 20,000 depend- IL ents of Canadian servicemen to their new homes in ail sections of the Dominion, 87 special trains have been operated out of Halifax over Cana- dan National Railways' lines. The records of the Canadian Red Cross Society show that to date 9,686 wives and 5,904 children of soldiers, 3,956 and 1,4419 of airmen and 538 and 131 of sailors have been brought Wo var- ious points in Canada by rail. In addition, 45 wives of servicemen have been flown across the Atantic by Trans-Canada Air Lines. Figures released recently by the Department of National Defence, Ottawa, indicate that there are stil at least another 50,000 dependents of Canadian service personnel to be brought to Canada. Based on this report, it is estimated by C.N.R. traffie department officers that an- other 200 of these "homes on wheels" specials wiil have to be operated be- fore the last war bride has been wel- comed to her new home. One of the biggest tasks connected with the operation of the trains is the serving of meals. To feed nearly 2,500 women and children going Wo Quebec, Ontario, and Western Canada recently on C.N.R. trains, more than 20,000 meals were served. Here are a few of the many items which had Wo be stored in the dining car pantries- 100 gallons of ice cream, enough for 10,000 prtions;500 gallons of milk, 8,000 glasses; three tons of meat, 900 dozens of eggs, four tons of vegetables and 1,250 loaves of bread. The upper photograph shows a typical scene at meal time i the dining cars of the dependents' spec- jais. kn the lower, three cute littie ehildren, twins on the right, are en- joying cookies and milk in the Red Cros Welcome Canteen in Bonaven- ture Station, Montreal, on their arrival from Halifax on a C.N.R. special train.

List of pupils who received certificate or seal for per- fect attendance were: Margaret Brown, Marie Brown, Dorothy Brown, Arthur Merrill, Margaret Ovens, Joan Walkey, Bruce Rol- lings, Donald VanDusen, Bob Pearce, Teddy Lane, Eugene Nor- land, Arthur Norland, Phîlip Gil- mer, Jim Gilmer, Billy Lane, Floria Lane, Minnie Randal, Car- los Smith, Bud Jones, Fae Jones and Mary Burley. The last nam- ed was a finished certificate (7 years). Confusion has arisen in this community owing to plans being laid both by our township and our locality to welcome back our returning personnel. A meeting was called by the local township committee to clear this. The town- ship effort is sponsored by the council in order that no Clarke township boy will be missed. The committee in charge is made up of two chosen from each polling division. The local committee is Mrs. Frank Gilmer and Melville Jones. The feeling of the meet- ing was that the township should be given the right of way, and as a part of Clarke, we should be sol- id behind the effort. Regret how- ever was expressed that lack of space would prevent as many to enter into the activities as they would wish.' At the same time they appreciate the problems con- fronting the managing committee. Canvassers were appointed. Monday evening the committee for the local effort met at the par- sonage. It was unanimously de- cided that this community back the township and that no second canvass for funds would be made. There is no reason why these plans should conflict. Locally we have been sending our boys boxes for six years. At a later date we woguld enjoy having themn togeth- er wxth us but this occasion would be informal,- homey and intimate with little expense involved.
