As ta television, Mr. Duntan said that its development was mnostly a question of economics and scientific engineering.

OBITUAB MRS. RICHARD ROWAN The sudden passing of Ethel Annie Rowan in the afternoon of Tuesday, February 10, came as a distinct shock ta ber family and a wide circle of friends.

She was a daughter.of Mr. and Mrs. John Carter ai Burketon and was married ta Richard Rowan on Nov. 1, 1941.

Before her marriage, Mrs. Raw- an, was a member of St. Jobn's Anglican Church, Blackstock, and a leader in the A.Y.P.A. In En- niskillen she became identified witb the United Church and the Enniskillen Service Club, in the work of which she taxed herseli greatly during the war and since in the service of others.

Home Front Work On the hame front the greai wark among outpost hospitals must lýe sustained and there was still need ta continue the sewing and knitting and the assembly of clotbing ta meet needs here and abroad. The central committee prolvide materials ready cut ta be sent ta branches ta be sewn. But the great work for peacetime was the organization by the Red Cross of a national blood bank ta be provided as a free service ta ev- ery hospital in the land. All these things the speaker commended ta the local branch as matters revelant ta the deci- sion ta continue. He gave higb praise ta those in the Bowman- ville branch who had worked faitbfully ta do so mucb during the war and xvas bappy ta learn of the success of the program'car- ried out lacally the past year. Ris final word was " The work af mercy neyer ends; the future af the Red Cross is in your bands." President O'Neill immediately put the motion ta continue the branch and then turned aver the gavel to Mayor Sidney Little for election of afficers, with the stip- ulation that a new president be elected. lIn due order the follow- ing were elected for the current New Officers President, Charles Carter Sr.; lst vice pres., Dr. W.
