Uic mun-1 gor bad led to more careful con- sideration by the government in matters related to publie safety at railroad crossings and admin- istration of the Veteran's Land Act. His poncern for his constit- uents, no matter what their poli- tics, was evidenit in his work in the House. The speaker brought regrets from his leader John Bracken who was unable to attend owing to bis duties at the United Nations As- sembly in New York.* He des- cribed Mr. Bracken as a man and leader respected by all parties in the House ,who bad created a team-work among his followers which bad resulted very effective- ly in shaping government legisla- tion. Leading a revitalized oppos- ition, Mr. Rracken was also lcad- ing the fight against bureaucratic controls which infringed liberties of the individual. As a successful farmer John Brackcn knew the bigh importance of restoring indi- vidual freedom. Mr. Timmins Mr. Timmins, a gunner, later an officer in World War I, a law- yer of distinction, an alderman in Toronto's City Council, was elect- ed to the House of Commons in the Parkdale by-election, succeed- ing Dr. Herbert A. Bruce, former Lieut. Governor of Ontario and a native of Durham County. Mr. Timmins described the mul- ti-party gang up in the by-elec- tion in wbich th e sociallsts and communist parties canvassed in- tensively and Lîberal stalwarts wagcd a pitched, unsuccessful battle. The speaker reviewed briefly the licensing regulations proclaîmed by the provincial go- vernment and the proposed Tor- onto plebiscite. He dcclared the latter to be communist inspired in order to get out the vote for civic elections in which they plumped in sup- port of their nominees. It was instances of this kind through which communism sought power of totalitarian character. The speaker brought forward this sidelight as bearing on the gen- eral theme of the previous speak- ers, the preservation o! liberty and democracy. Mr. Timmins enlivencd his re- marks with amusing anecdotes o! political character with. his own party as the target. Glad to be a member of thc Bracken team, thc speaker looked forward to bis first session of the Commons with much interest and in the hope o! sharing constructively in the de- velopment o! a great country in which civil and religious liberty would continue to reign. Thanks Percy Stinson, Millbrook, sec- onded by Bert Reid, Orono, mov- cd thc vote o! thanks to the speak- ers and all who shared in making the occasion a high success. Oth- er political figures noticcd at the gatbering were T. K. Creighton, M.P.P., and Major Jim MacBrien, Oshawa. Bill Rowland, Newcastle, in charge of catering, proved to be a- radio personality when lie direct- cd attention to arrangements for the buffet lunch and the dance to follow. Entertainment Russ Creighton and bis enter- tainers presentcd a sparkling stage show and su'pplied the music for the dancc. Urbane Mr. Crcighton as M.C., introduccd Miss Ruth Gibbard, talcnted tap and acroba- tic dancer; Jimmy Lake an artist at sleigbt-of-hand and Ernie Bruce master of many musical instruments including tuneful numbers on an ordinary hand-saw.

Its unusual insulating qualities make it an indispensable factor in the vast, new field of radar and television while it gets back to earth again in the form of simple, resilient, waterproof refrigerator bowl covers that seem to last forever ... polythene, in its scope of application, is another outstanding example of what Chemistry is contributing to our daily comfort and welfare. t&I N DU SE uriOCAN0ADI ANS t:TH0RO0UBaNmC H Em 1S T à with tougher tires... stitchless watch straps. .. und mti-f rosie tractor tires Carbon Black (a nuisance when it collects on the lamp chimney) makes today's tires much tougber and abrasion resistant. 2 5 years ago tires ran 5,000 miles, with luck. Today's tires, thanks largely te th~e addition of carbon black, run at least 5 times farther. A versatile material, carbon black finds its way into sucli diverse products as ink and buttons, fountain pens and, yes, carben paper. A strap without stitches will grace the wrist watch of the future. It is molded from the versatile plastic, nylon, which makes it unaffected by weather, perspiration or continueus wear. Tested by servicemen under ail cli- matic conditions, it is now about ready for peacetime use. r Practical farmers weight their tractors by simply add- ing water te the tires. In sulnmer this procedure is fine, but in cold weather the addition of some antifreeze te the water load is neces- sary. Here chemistry steps in. Calcium Magnesium Chleride obtained from C-I-L sait at Neepawa, Mani- toba, is the low cost chemi- cal ideal for this purpose. It has ne detrimental effect on the tires.

A record attendance at both the business session and banquet marked the annual meeting of the Durham Hoistein-Friesian As- sociation held in Orono Thursday, Dec. 5. More than 100 breeders took part in the business discus- sions held in the town hall during the forenoon and more than 200 including wives and guests as- sembled in the United Church to partake of the splendid goose dinner provided by the Women's Association of the church. Guest speaker at the banquet was Col. Rev. Sidney Lambert, Padre, Christie St. Hospital, Toronto. Carlos Tamblyn, president for the past two years acted as chair- man at botb meetings ènd cap- ablir kept things moving and en- livened. He announced his retire- ment from office prior to election of the officers for 1947, in bis very able review of the work during the past year..

The work in junior cal! club ac- tîvities was contmended and con- tinuance o! the $2 per capita grant was recommendcd as well as the suggestion that club members be invited as guests at Uic banquet in future. The matter o! resuming adver- tising in the Holstein Journal was left to the directors. An invitation wihl be extended to Mr. McPhail, Kemptville, to again act as judge at the Black and White Day, with A. Runions as alternative. Mcm- berships were continued at 50c wîth all present renewing. Reports Field Representative Roy Or- miston gave a most comprehen- sive revicw o! bis work in the 10 counties coming under bis su- pervision. He commcnded field days as a very important part in maintaining interest in Uic breed and urged support for- cal! club activities but hie was averse to barn meets as- more conducive tu sprcad o! disease. Announcing results o! the arti- ficial insemination unit at Maple, Ont., Mr. Ormiston urged adher- ence to quality breeding as re- quisite to enlarging the present very excellent export markets for Holstein brecding stock. Begin- ners were cautioncd to invest in good foundation stock, spending money for a few rather than a larger number of inferior quality. The cbampionsbip show at Peter- boro and Uic Royal WiiXter Fair lie considercd o! great value and rccommended assistance in thc matter o! entries, particuiarly in the Black and White shows.

He urged Uic importance o! keeping accurate registrations and general records in view o! the position that Canadian Hoîsteins are attaining in the export field. Extensions o! Uic home office and staff to service more than 10,000 members I1.1 cntailed increased expense ar.. the directors bad to consider means o! both balancing the budget and setting up a rea- sonable reserve. Consideration was being given to incrcasing re- venues by an additional 50c charg- cd against transfers. J. D. Brown, Director of Uic Canadian Association, believed that raising trahsfer fees by 50e was a small amount comparcd with present bigh prices prevail- ing. He advanced several prac- tical suggestions. That in future the business session and the ban- quet be hcld on separate occa- sions to permit better discussion o! general business. That since only local representatives attend- cd officialiy at the Royal, a com- mittee be. set up to name a larger representation. That greater re- cognition be given by way o! awards in County R.O.P. attain- ments." Annual Efection Agricultural, Representative E. A. Summers presided in Uic dcec- tion o! officers.
