Sci- entists proved to be senior part- ners in the war effort and re- search had been the link between the armed forces and industry. In the days ahead, as a means of fullest co-ordination, we must at- tract and employ our highly train- ed scientists in a great range of technical developments. Mr. Ab- bott referred briefly to one branch of research which devel- oped a serum as defence against possible bacteriological warfare. Peacetime Forces Dealing with the size of our postwar forces Mr. Abbott said: Plans for the navy include an active force of 10,000 men and a reserve of 18,000, ail ranks. Training establishments would be maintained at strategic points and the navy would consist of ail mo- demn units includmng aircraft car- riers. Modemn appointments would feature ail branches with active and reserve units highly trained. The active army would be maintained at 25,000 on a footing based. upon most modern arma and trained completely and corn- petently at ail tirnes.

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. John Scqtt on birth of baby boy. Little Jimmy who has been with his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Norman Scott has returned home. Welcome to Mrs. Jack Wade who arrived fromn England on the Lady Nelson last week. Mother's Day service were well attended both at Sunday School and church. In the evening the pastor had a fine message on 'Mother." The softball girls had a good workout last~ night. There are those who tell us that girls in the game will not stick together or take discipline. Get in it girls and show us. Bringing home victor- ies is a fine thing but learning to play together and go on smiling in defeat is what stands us in good stead aIl through life. The boys' bail teamn is in the making and you will hear more of it later. In 1903 Clarke towriship coun- cil took over fromn the original committee the guardianship of the Capt. Milligan monument. Last Tuesday the present council honored that obligation by accep- ting the responsibility for its re- erection. This means moral ra- ther than financial support as the present committee has some funds on hand. Rearing costly columns of cold granite in a starving world ap- pears like confused thinking but protecting and keeping in repair these littie shrines is a sacred trust. The older ones in our midst have neyer been able to think of the loss of this monument in 1943 without a tightening in their throats. They would be do- îng our young people an injustice to allow themn to become unappre- ciative of the terrible price whîch was paid for the liberty they en- joy. Reeve Woodyard and coun- cillors, Newtonvîlle says "Thank you." Visitors: Mrs. Dell Whitney, Ken and Miss Jean Milligan in Windsor. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Tufford and family with their daughter, Mrs. Harold Burley. Meeting of W.M.S. was held Tuesday afteronon. In absence of the president, Mrs. Pearce had charge of the business period. The bale will be packed at next meeting. One quilt is to be sent in bale, the other has been sold. We are especially asked for toys for children. Mrs. McCullough had charge of ,the program and took the third chapter of the stu- dy book. Mrs. Morris read the scripture and Mary Lane sang a solo. Do not forget to look in "Com- ing Events" column to see infor- mation re W.A. anniversary and play and especially note there is only one service. Canadian Club er Arctic routes, now made obli- gatory the concern for examining Canada's present position. Any future aggressîon might, probab- ly would, mean defence of Cana- dian soîl. Although new types of weapons have been made possible by scientists and inventors, the problems in war remain funda- mentally the same. Manpower, ships, air defence, firepower, would be employed. Full consid- eration of ahl factors bas led to the- presntplic for Cnada to + i isions, or approximàately 180,000 men, also provided with modern equipment for annual maneuvres. Finally the air force would be established with both active and reserve units embracing ail w.mngs. The active branch of 16,000 would be supported by a re§erve auxil- iary of approximately 14,500, al of course with the best of equip- ment and facilities for training. These were the tentative figures given by the speaker, who observ- ed that some modification may be necessaty when international commitménts are determined. The aim is to make sure we have a well organized, - well staffed, peace-time defeAce setup, that will attract the right types of young men. New scales of pay have been adopted further to at- tract youth to ail three services. Pay Schedules The pay schedules generally were arranged to measure up to the returns received fromn civil occupations, in short to make the service a career requiring no sac- rifice economically. With a tra- ditional social status, there were also the advantages of free me- dical, dental, and other features and finally provision for retire- ment pensions on a generous scale. The system of compulsory retirement on attaining a cer- tain perîod of service permitted the principle of regular promo- tions in ail branches. As an iiducement to better ed- ucational standard among the youth of today, enlistments will be more generally centred among graduates of High Schools and Universities. The whole policy is one designed to make the ser- vices most highly attractive, wholesome and healthful. Policy Keynote In conclusion Mr. Abbott stress-, ed that the keynote of the whole policy was one of reasonable pre- paredness in the light of past ex- perience. There were some who felt that preparing in arms meant preparing for war but the speak- er emphatically declined that view. He pointed to the false op- timism of the past which has cost 50 dearly. While he was optimis- tic that we ýshaîl attain peace, Mr. Abbott suggested a prudent view for possibilîties cannot be ignored. He closed with the hope that Canadians would accord the saine spirit of co-operation in present plans that.they so loyally accorded in, war. Major L. W. Dippeli, M.M. and Bar, in moving the vote of thanks to Mr. Abbott, spoke in support- ing vein on the brilliant and con- structive message delivered.

Workman was accom- panist in community singing and for the very excellent vocal numbers contributed *by Miss Margaret Allin and Miss Dorotby Nicholîs. The applause they won was also shared by Miss Collette Ferguson for her splendid piano solos. The banquet which took place in Trinity United Church Sunday School, was provided by the Scu- gag Women's Association. They were thanked by Bert Parker and received a word of praise from *Ion. Mr. A'bbott. The Canadian Club will resume its meetings in the faîl. It has been favored by brilliant speakers during the sea- son, none more brilliant than Hon. Douglas C. Abbott.. Tag Day for the Blind Breaks Ail Records Final returns of the Tag Day in 'behaîf of the Canadian Na- tional Institute for the Blind, held in Bowmanville and district, Sat- urday, are as yet incomplete ac- cording to information given by Secretary Miss Helen Cryderman. The net from the town canvass, however, amounts to $175.70. Fin- al figures will be given when all returns are in. The Bowmanville total, we are advised, is the largest received over other tag days in the past. For this the committee in charge express their great appreciation to the public and particularly to the volunteer helpers who did so much to make the day a success. The organization of the canvas- sers who were ail recruited from among High School girls and who took their posts in relays on the streets, was in charge of Mrs. A. S. Baker, with headquarters in the Council Chamber, Town Hall. Both Mrs. Baker and Miss Cry- derman paid great tribute to these young ladies for their faithful work. A Rug That's Piied High A trade journal describing a new floor covering says: "It has the cushioning feel of an expen- sive deep-pile rug . . . the surface is polyvinyl chloride resin 'and underneath is an eight-inch layer of sponge." Which ail clearly indicates the need of snowshoes.
