PROVIDENCE FORUM Our forum met with four oth- er forums of Darlington at Hamp- ton where Walter Rundle, Eb- enezer, and Walter Reynolds, Port Hope, spoke on "Municipal Gov- crnmcnt, its formation and du- ties. This is one of the projects being carried on by the Federa- tion of Agriculture in the county for Adult Education. The farm forum broadcast on "Is Research Meeting Farm Needs?" was heard and dîscuss- ed. Some o! the problems which require greater research work were soil conservation and use of fertilizers. The study of the cost of producing and marketing of farm products, such as the com- mission set up at present into the cost of producing and dis- tributing milk; also find what amount of investment in imple- ments the average farmn will car- ry. On the question o! farm management it was felt that this could be dealt with by a local body better than provincially. The gathcring was unanimous that more money should be spent in research, even if it meant an increase in taxation, because one dollar spent in research paid the farmer back 100-fold in returns over a period o! years in higher production, discase resisting var- ZY .The forums also felt npeople should also be 5C2 elp pay for this re- An Open Letter to Clarke- Citizens It has come to oun attention that the ratepayers o! Clarke Township arc being given the pniviiege o! voting upon a by-law to authonize the Council to make a grant o! $8,000.00 toward the erection and equiping o! the new Memonial Hospital at Bowmanville whcn it shail be built. In order that Yeu may be conversant with the needs and responsibilities o! the people o! the outlying area may wc offer the following considerationd. According to Govennment standards the capacity of oun present building is only twenty-two patients. We, ac- commodate 25 to 35 patients at this time by overcrowding, doubling up in nooms and at times having patients in the halls. Twice during the yean patients have been denied admittances owing te lack o! space. Again, less than hal! the patients admittcd to the hospitai arc Bowmanville nesidents. We have ample space to look a!ter these but appreciate that we have a moral obligation to aid the surrounding district. About 25% o! our patients come !rom the Township o! Daniington and 20% £rom Clarke Township. Dariington has provised us a grant ef $12,000, and Town o! Bowmanviile a grant o! $100,000.00. These municipalities have appreciated their responsibility towards this splendid humanitanian project. .When you mark your ballott (and we crave that you seize the importance o! gettîng out and voting favourably for this pnoject) we would ask you to solemnly remembe? that we ail have a moral responsibility. Let it be realized that the r.ew Hospital will be modemn and adequate in accommodation and equipment.to meet- our legitimate necessities. The Board and the architect are planning the Hospital with the most stringent economy and careful oversight. Be assured that yeur support is in the highest inter- est o! the sympathetic wei!are o! your community and your !ellowmen. O.SHAWA Free Parking Phone 1011 THURS. - FRI. - SAT.

FITCHETT Death came with startling sud- denness to Frank Albert (Bert) Fitchett o! Montreai early on Friday morning, Nov. 22nd, at his home, 371 Wilder Ave., as a re- suit of coronary thrombosis. Mr. Fitchett was weli known here as a frequent visitor at the home o! his wife, the former Mary J. Painton of Bowmanville. Mn. Fitchett was born in Lon- don, Ontario, 59 years ago and was educated there, aftcr which he entered the glass business, with which he has been associated ever since. He went to Montreal 25 years ago and at the time of his death was with the Munderloh Co. of Montreal. He had been a, mcm- ber of the Kiwanîs Club for 25 years, and during the recent war was Warden in charge of First A i r '1 FOX LATE NEWS .. 1 *ROYAL THEATRE BWMAN VILLE - PHONE 589 TOPS IN ENTERTAINMENT Thursday - Friday - November 28 - 29 ADOUBLE FEATURE in AND 'Whistle Stop' Ava Victor Gargner MeLaglen JOAN DAVIS SHE GETS RER MAN" Mirthful Musical Saturday - November 3Oth TWO GREAT PICTURES RUTH TERRY ROBERT LIVINGSTONE "Telli h To A Star" A Rollicking Musical Romance -AN D - "Romance of the West" IN COLOR' HEAR THESE SONG HITS . . .

Durham County Federation o! Agriculture to dis- cuss Forums and Municipal Go- vernment was a splendid success. About 60 people were there and among that number were repre- sentatîves o! the only two Forums we have in Clarke township. The Farmh, Broadcast was listened to and the discussion afterwards was quite lively. The eradication of weeds seemed to be uppermost.in the minds o! many. It was agreed that if research can find a way o! destroying weeds at a much low- er cost than at present it would benefit ail. The group also feit that if research meant a better product !rom the farm, a more systematic work program and better marketing it would agree to even paying higher taxes. It also felt that if the city got this 'better prod.uct'it should be will- ing to pay a higher price. The cost o! research shoulci be borne by governments and in tI'at way ail would help to pay. After the discussion J. J. Mcl- lor, secretary County Federation, gave his talk on Municipal Gov- ernment dealing with it from two points; set-up and administration. He showed the limited çpowers o! Township Councils and also cxplained in detail how the as- sessment roll and the-tax roll are made up. He spoke o! the meth- od o! striking rates, o! collecting taxes and also explained quite cleanly the troublesome question o! tax arrears. He pointed out that Township Councils have ne control over County Rates, Gen- eral School Rates, Local School Rates, se that only the Township Rate plus the Municipal Subsidy is le! t for their control. There were many questions asked and answered. In the opinion o! those in attendance meetings o! this kind are very much worth while. S.S. 4 DARLINGTON FORUM In case some o! the other farm forums are wondering why there has 'been no report from S.S. No. 4 Darlington, here is a word of explanation. In September, Miss Arnold, our secretary received a letter from Ralph Staples, National Farm Forum Secretary, asking if our forum would co-operate with them. in pre-testing forum ques- tions before the Farm Forum Guide was printed. We agreed to do what we could. and, 50 our first meeting was held Septemnber 23. Miss Ruth McKenzie, assistant secretary of the National office, came to the meeting and explain- ed that the idea was to get the farmer 's viewpoint on the mater- ial and questions before the paper went to press. To do this our group had to meet five weeks ahead o! the first national broadcast. So on Sept. 23 we discussed the subject that the other groups dis- cussed on opening night on Oct. 28. We will be five weeks ahead ail winter. Miss McKenzie comes down every Monday night excepL review night. On Nov. 4, Miss Sheila Thrush o! the Ontario Farm Forum Office 1and Miss Fannie Galway o! the National Office came along also. 1Miss McKenzie presents the material the Editorial Comm.itte' has prepared on the subi ect ai, the proposed questions. We turn present our opinion o! ti same which is sometimes a litt different from theirs. I think the lady was somewh. surprised at the first meeting c farm living standards te find thz not one o! our group would bz .willing to take a job in the cit at $32.00 a week. As for taxes at the secon meeting we decided that incom .tax was probably the fairest ant preperty taxes the least fair. W ,did net take a chance on suggest, .ing any new tax sources.
