F'oundry Increases Hourly Wage Rates A threatened strike in the Bow- manvîlle Foundry Company plant was averted when employees by a majority o! more than two to one voted to accept a last-minute settiement off er fromn the firm, ac- cording to M. J. Fenwick, Steel- workers Union representative. The company agreed to raise wages o! hourly rated employees by seven cents an hour and piece workers by five cents. Featuring the wage clause is a provision that Local 2375, United Steel- workers of America can re-open wage negotiations on May 1, if it so desires. The working week is reduced from 48 to 45 hours and a prem- ium of three cents per hour for the second shift and five cents for the third shift was set.

Ail newly hired employees will automatically have the $1.50 mon- thly Union fee deducted from their pay cheques.

Christmas we think of the pictures on Christmas cards o! houses almost buried in snow, candles burning in windows and carolers grouped in a doorway singing with al their hearts to the peal o! church belîs. In those days Christmas must have been picturesque, no automobiles whizzing by, just the merry jingle o! sleigh bells. "Hark, the herald angels sing" was written iii 1730 by Chas. Wesley, younger !brother o! John Wesley who founded Method- ism, but it was not published until 1856. The rector o! a church in *Philadelphia was asked by his sunday school child- ren to write a Christmas song so "Oh little town o! Bethlehem" was the result. The most beloved o! ail carols is probably "Holy Night, Silent Nîght" written by a rector who had no music for Christmas on account o! mice destroying the church organ. He was greatly troubled over thîs calamity and so one sulent night as he stood on the top o! a hill at midnight, it came to him that it must have been just such a silent night that the Christ Child was born, so he went home and composed this famous Christmas hymn. These composers would be gratified if they could hear our present Christmas programs and the ease with which we can bring these lovely old hymns to us. They would be pleasantly sur- prised to know that even our Christmas shopping can now be done to their inspiration tunes. Butter Not Exported To United Kingdom It has been reported frequently that Canada has exported impor- tant quantities o! butter to the United Kingdom. That is not correct, stated J. F. Singleton, As- sociate Director, Marketing Ser- vice, Dairy Products, Dominion Departmént o! Agriculture, and Chairman, Dairy Products Board, in an address at the recent con- vention o! the Ontario Creamery Association, at Niagara Falls, Ont. No butter, he said, had been ex- ported to the United Kingdom, although no doubt relatively small quantities of Canadian butter have been provided for ships' stores, and those would be classified as exports to the countnies to which the ships were sailing. Total qjuo- tas established amounted to 5.6 million pounds, o! which 3 mil- lion pounds was "cooking" but- ter o! such iow quality that there was no market for the product in Canada. Quotas o! "table" but- ter totalled 2.6 million pounds. The quantity exported will amount to about 1.7 per cent o! total production o! creamery and dairy butter. fail forward and loosen ail the ground beside the lake at your muscles of your neck.
