Know More About Your Governments Durham County Federation of Agriculture is making a move to work along the lines of Aduit Edùication andi is to start planning for a series of meetings to take place this faîl. It is feit that miany people would appreciate receiv- ing instruction as to how they are governed andi also having the op- portunity of asking the many questions that arise from time to time. These meetings are not be- ing planned with the idea of some people making speeches but will take the form of discussion. For instance: Do you know the make up of a township and its govern- ing body? Do you know how and why a township is divided into sections and divisions? Can you explain how your taxes are ar- rived at, how your voters' lists are made up, who selects the jur- ors, what your taxes are used for and many other things? Well here is a chance to learn. It is the duty of every taxpayer to try and un- derstand ail this. Study the list provided below, pick out your meeting and join in. It is the wish of theFederation that ail nearby Forums will at- tend as well as others who are interested. It wouid be a good thing to have your Forumi broad- cast at these meetings as part of the program. Following gives place of meeting, speakers and subject for discussion: Monday, Nov. 25 Kirby, J. J.

Got DoU dis iâ P&is dal. w chin, manager of Polymer Cor- poration, toid the Purchasing Ag- ents Association of Essex and Kent in an address last week. The manager of the govern- ment-owned synthetic rubber plant at Sarnia, Ontario, deciared that such a latex, 'might have the effect of adding 50 per cent to thé rubber consumption of rubber processors." "With it, the processors couid build up -a market that might have an importance second oniy to that of tires," he said. "To our na- tion it would mean many millions of dollars worth of trade. To you and me, it would mean a new de- gree of luxurîous comfort within the reach of ail of us. "Foam sponge rubber which, up to the present, has been too expensive to perzn1ît its use on a broad scale, could perform a thou- sand and one services for man- kind. Even before the war, it was used in the more expensive hos- pitai mattresses, stretcher and am- bulance pads, and seats for thea- tres, buses, pullman coaches, air- craft and automobiles. "The newv prodiuct has been found more resilient, more hy- gienic, more convenient andi more comfortable. Since it contains millions of tiny air holes, it is, in effect, air cooied. Processors say it is vermin-proof and dust-free, and that it can be kept dlean by washing in a washing machine. "One of the world's largest rub- ber processing companies is en- tering the field of foam sponge rubber in Canada, and alread.y has announced plans for the construc- tion of a plant at New Toroxlto. It may not be long before ail the larger comparues have enteredý the field."
