Ration Book N'o. 6 during the week o! Sep- tember 9 to 16. Aithougli it is a busy time in most farma corfimun- ,ties arrangements have been of time and effort on the part of farmers and their familles in ob- taining the new book. Irijhe first place, distribution Centfts are to be set up at hun- .,ýeds o! centres across the coun- 50Jr s that most farmers will have a centre close to their homes. Se- < condly, an adult member o! any family may collect the books of ail members of the household, providing the application card in the back of the present book lias been properly filled out by the bookholder himself, or, in the ,case of children under sixteen, by a parent or guardian. Fur- thermore, one member of a com- nnunity may collect the books for other residents of his district, pro- vided the application card is com- pbeted by each bookholder. Aithougli September 9 to 16 is to be "distrib~ution week," the actual days on which distribution will take place during that week are decided upon by the Local Ration Boards. Members of all farm communities should, there- lore, watch their local papers, lis- ten to radio announcemnents, or enquire from their nearest Local Ration Board, what days their nearest distribution centres will be open. Directions for getting the new book are simple. (1) The green RB191 card at the back of the present ration book must be properly filled out in ink, with the information print- ed except for the signature to the declaration at the lottomn of the card. (2) The card should then be left in the book and the book pre- sented at the distribution centre. The book will be returned, toge- ther with a new Ration Book 6. (3) Cards from books of child- ren under 16 years of age should be signed by a parent or guard- ian. (4) The address to be given on the card means the usual address of the bookholder. If the appli- cant is on vacation at the time of distribution, he may go to any distribution point to get his book, but must give his regular address on the card. Persons who do not pick up their books while distributing centres are open wîll not be able to obtain a new book until after September 29. Latecomers will find lhemselves unable to use two meat coupons, two butter and five sugar-preserves coupons which become valid on September 19 and 26, as it wîll not be possible for them to obtain new books until after those dates.

Indicate Session End Evidence of exhaustion among members o! parliament, after summer-long sweltering sessions in the House, is shown by fewer questions asked and answered as the term grinds to a close. Han- sard provides no more revealing sideliglits on the state of the na- tion than in the replies of Min- isters to probing insistence of pri- vate members demanding, facts. Very often Mînisters attempt eva- sion and sometimes they are in error as in the case of Veterans Minister Mackenzie who gave a misleading reply to Durham's M.P., Charlie Stephenson, on the small housing situation. But lie later apologized. Taken at random from the rec- ords are the following items of interest during the past month: Since January 1, 1946, there have been 95,546 soldiers, 13,303 wives, 5,493 children received in Canada from overseas. At July 1, 11,352 soldiers, 15,389 wîves, 4,238 children still wait passage to Canada. 0f 3,000 fiat cars made by Can-1 adian firms for Russia, 1,644 havei been turned back to War Assets.j 0f a type unsuitable here, no salet has been made. They will bet scrapped due to steel shortage.t The whole cost was born by the Canadian government as muitual aid to Russia. Service personnel, World Wari 2, granted pensions to date num-1 ber 45,298. Cuba goes in for fish and chips. During the late war Canada shîpped Cuba 23 million lbs. of fish and nearly 21/2 million bush- els potatoes.j The hidden tax on consumer goods; 8 per -cent on all goods pro- duced and sold in Canada, netted $401 million dollars, 1944-1945; still hits everyone, everywhere. How many are now serving prison terms for violation of al- ternative service regulations, arm- ed forces? Said Minister Mitch- ell: "Not one." Last year Canada got the short end of trade with Hitler's friend Spain. We shipped Spain~ goods to the value of $672,571; bouglit from Spain goods valued at $5,- 696,000, viz: olives, nuts, spices, brandy, wine, gut, fish, cork, etc. Is Canada a "big,"' a "middle'" or "small"' power? asked Mr' Pouliot. Said Minister St. Laur- ent: "There is no legal definition under the UNO." Minister Mitchell said: The third sailing of Japanese groups from Canada to Japan lias taken place. The number repatriated to date is 3,151 with more to fol- low. The price of flax for this year lias been set at $3.25 per bushel, basis 1, CW, head of lakes, so the government said, August 5. Yes, we have exported butter this year, said the Trade Minister: A total of 1,529,100 lbs. mostly to the West Indies and South Amer- ica. Not a pound elsewhere. Canada's exports to Mexico last year were $8,165,000; imports $13,- 508,000. Exports to Columbia, $5,- 000,000; imports $11,678,000. Short end again. % Minister MacKinnon, August 7, 1946, announced average earn- ings, single men and women, latest census, as follows: Earning less than $450 yearly, 643,668 persons. Between $450 and $949, total 442,- 885 persons. Over $950 a total of 220,476. And cost of living rising steadily. This brings the story down to date with the end of the session flot far off. The House will reas- semble in January. It is not enough to be busy; 50 are thý ants. The question is: What are we busy about?-'Thor- eau.

The Canadian Geographical' Society. Written by W. P. Percival, an autliority on the Province o! Que- bec (in whidli le is Director o! Protestant Education), and au- thor o! the book, "~The Lure o! Quebec," the article traces the lis- tory o! the city !rom its earliest days to the present time and des- cribes many o! the historically important points of interest. The illustrations accompanying the article are drawn from old sket- ches and recently taken photo- graplis. Quebec, Dr. Percival writes, re- sembles an old European town more nearly than does any other city o! the American continent. O! the adjacent St. Lawrence Ri- ver, lie says it is "so mighty that the water that fiows past Quebec s0 swiftly to the sea could easily eradicate ail drouglit from the plains o! western Canada if it could be harnessed and redirect- ed-~2a vain hope, but illustrative o! its potentiality." Althcvugh Quebec is now a busy city, Dr. Percival points out that many o! the people living in and around it are "doing precisely as their forefathers did two or three hun- dred years ago." It is this adher- ence to the quaint customs o! otl- er days that gives to Quebec the lure which is now found 50 irre- sistible. Dr. Percival's article is one o! a series o! similar studies being prepared for The Canadian Geo- graphical Society by outstanding writers. The next published work in the series will deal with the history and growth o! London, Ontario. Differences in marriage, like pots and pans in the kitchen, should be washed Up as ybu go.

Gordon Cockshutt, Brant- ford, President of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, in his ad- dress at its seventeentli annual meeting, called attention to the large increase in membership, it having more than doubled in the last three years. Bowmanville has one of the 250 voting members of the Cari- adian Chamber of Commerce, ac- cording to President Walter De Geer. "The membershîp of Boards of Trade and Chambers of Com- merce today stands at the highest point in its history," said Pres- ident Cockslutt, with 250 com- munity organizations affiliated witl the national body, and we are midway in a program of as- sisting to re-organize and re-acti- vate the business men's movement at the community level. The ag- gregate membership of these 250 member Boards and Chambers is over 50,000. He asked those in business across this country to get into and behind their Board of Trade or Chamber of Commerce and make it the power for good that it should be in these chal- lenging times. "To enable the Canadian Cham- ber of Commerce, the national fe- deration of Boards of Trade and Chambers o! Commerce, to ac- cept its rigltful responsibility in the national life of thîs country, the Board of Directors have dur- ing the past two years built up a strong staff of competent young men, wlo are specialists in the task of organization, economics, and public relations and com- munity service. I believe with my Directors that our organiza- tion has a very real role to play in the development o! our great Dominion. "The challenge to every Cana- dian, man and woman, todaý is for team-work, business, manage- ment, agriculture and govern- ment, to achieve the highest pos- sible standard of living, not for a few but for everyone and also at the same time to accept the responsibility whicli las been made ours, of lelping to feed and rehabilitate many other peoples wlio suffer incomprehensible pri- vation from the war.
