During the pnogram, the various neeves under whom Mr. Beacock served, Messrs. P. Hey- land, Cneighton Devît and Non- man Green, spoke highly of the excellent service rendered by the Clerk during 'his long tenm of office. Mr. Bruce Heaslip, the in- coming reeve, also paid tribute to Mr. Beacock, regretting aise that he would be without his guiding hand. The chairman of the evening, Reeve W. G. Bowles, added bis appreciation and noted the great changps that had taken place in Cartwright since 1905 when Mr. Beacock took office. He stnessed the gnowtb of the langer summer community on Lake Scugog anid the advent of motor travel which bave brought new problems into the conduct of municipal affairs, problems whicb will demand men of greater vision in municipal of- fice. Mr. Bowles panticularly drew attention to Mr. Beacock's unique terrm of senvice,-His own terrm of 44 years followed one by bis fatjier of 3 yeans and one by bis uncle, the late Wm. Lucas, of 41 yeans.-A total of 88 years of service for one family,-A record wbicb wc feel would be bard to equal. As a more tangible mark of appreciation Mr. Beacock was prescnted with a purse and with it the besf wisbes of evenyone for health and happiness and long ycars of netirement. As Mr. Beacock's term of office nepresents a near record in munic- ipal affairs, if was much regretted that Hon. Leslie Frost, Premier of Ontario, Mr. John James, M.P., Major John Foote, V.C., M.L.A., and Mr. A. Runnals,, Warden of the United Counties, were unable to attend. As a result the 6ccasion was veny much a family affai* and perhaps bappily so, for Mn Bcacock by those who knew him best and those whom he bad serv- cd se long. SOUTH NESTLETON Mn.

FARM FORUMS On Dec. 12 we met af Uic home of Mr. J. Trull with an attend- ance of fwenty-four. Subjcf for discussion was "Is There a Farm Housing Problem?" When a young couple are buy- ing a farm, it ih usually impossible for theni to set aside a definite proportion of Uic farm income for improvement of the home. How- ever one should attcmpt fo bave conveniences as soon as af all pos- sible. It is regrettable that some waif so long to make these im- provements tbat thcy do not live long to cnjoy thcm. Even if nec- essary to borrow if is sometimes better business to install several improvements at once. The features most desirable to include in remodclling a home are: electnicity, running water, insul- ation, modern heating, bathroom an~d cupboards. We think that our Forum could sponsor a farm home improve- ment campaign. Homes which have been rccently improved i this community are a demonstra- thon of what can be donc. No meetings will be hcld until Jan. 9.
