BOWEN After a brief illness, on Sunday, February 15, there passed away a well-known resident of the dis- trict in the person of Henry C. Bowen, at his home near Orono. He was the only surviving son of Hiramn and Margaret Jerome Bow- en ,and nearing his ninetieth birthday. He spent his entire life with the exception of one or two short periods, on the farm on which he died. He was prede- ceased by bis wife, the former Katie J. Holmes, in January of last year.1 Endowed with more than aver- age ability, th4 late Mr. Bowen was noted for bis skill and penser- vance in varied branches of work, and for his love of reading; hav- ing amassed in his home, what is perhaps the largest private col- lection of books in the township. He is survived by one daughter and three sons, nine grandchil- dren and eight great-grandchil- dren. The largely attended funeral service, conducted by Rev. Patter- son, Newcastle United Chuncb, wvas helci at the Morris Funeral Chapel, Bowmanville, with inter- ment at Orono Cemetery. Pallbearers were neighbors of the deceased: Messrs. Harold Dean, Geo. Laing, Manson Patton, Cecil Malley, Donald Gibson and Harold Gibson. HÂYDON Congratulations to Mn. and Mrs. Jim Martyn (nee Clare Trewin) on their necent manriage.

FARM FORUMS PROVIDENCE FARM FORUM Our Forum met at the home of Mr .and Mrs. C. Turner with a lange attendance of thirty-one. The discussion topic xvas 'What the machine bas otone to us." We consider machineny is essential in view of the lack of man power andi specialized crops but it de- pends on the size of the farms. Small farmers would benefit ýby hiring machinery to get their heavy work done. The heavy machinery needeti in this community is a ditcher, a bulldozer and a weed sprayer. Possibly the Provincial Dept. o! Agriculture or the Township coulti procure these, thereby mak- ing them available for custom wonk. By the use of these ma- chines the farmen wouid have bigger andi better crops. Next meeting will be at Mn. and Mrs. R. Hendry's on March 8. Our community raised sixty- two dollars for the Canadian Ap- peal for Chiltinen. Earle Osborne acted as secretary treasuren for same. ]KIRBY T Everyone hati a good time at the canti and crokinole party at the school on Monday night last.

K. NacDonald, president, and C. D. Devlin, vice president and general manager, reported that 1947 was the most successful year ln the history o! the company. New business written in 1947 was $117,072,572, a gain o! $10,240,602 over 1946. Insurance in force in- creased by $87,645,965 to a total of $788,149,270, and assets and policy reserves increased to $217,- 636,848 and $176,968,430 respec- tively. Mr. MacDonald reported that Confederation Lif e earned 3.68 % on its investad assets, a decrease of .01 % compared with 1946. "This low interest return re- flects the downward trend in in- terest rates for the last 12 years," be said. "This trend may now have been balted, but the low rates still pose a serbous problem to insurance companies and pros- pective policyowners, be ca us e tbey tend to promote a rising cost of living and o! life insurance. "Wrhile Confederation Life does not propose to make an overali increase in premium rates in Can- ada and Newfoundland this year, we have thought it prudent to strengthan our resarves in order to give addad protection to our policyowners. "The root cause o! inflation and bigher pnices is the trend, since the end of Worid War I, tbwards practical application of the faliacy that the only way to achieve a higher level of employment and a better standard of living is through government planning and direction o! the national econ- omy."1 "In striving for a bîgh level of amployment and an increasing standard of living, we need to de- cide whether we want, at the same time, to preserve o6r tradi- tions of democracy, economic lib- eralism, and an international ec- onomy, or whether we desire na- tional planning and a more or less self-contained economy. Under these circumstances, we may be justified in questioning the feasi- bility o! a national policy which, in bts practical application, com- mits us to continuous inflation witb its consequent trend towards a maximum of government con- trols over our economy. We are tending more and more to pre- vent the price mechanism from operating, so that only fragments of free markets for commodities, capital and labor now exist." "The way to check inflation lies in that direction of expanding Percy Twp - _-----_-- - 1 Port Hope-------------- 5 Scarlet Fever- Darlington Twp. ______2 Newcastle ------- Total------------81 From 9 production of goods and services and in checklng or even cantract- Ing the amount of effective pur- chasing power.

A period of prosperity seems a log- ical time to reduce government indebtedness to banks. Pernùtting interest rates to seek their natural level bas, in the past, been an ef- fective method of curtailing ex- cessive credit expansion." "Industry, labor and govern- ments are faced with the most es- sential task of increasing produc- tion and the efficiency of labor and of adopting firm measures to arrest the vicious spiral of rising wages and prices." "Until sufficient supplies be- m 10 a.m. and 3 corne available, any attemnpt to improve the people's standard of living by simply ralsing money wages and increasing themoney supply is doorned to failure.
