The August meeting of Maple Grave Women's Institute honor- ed the grandmothers of the cam- munity. President Mrs. Ivison Munday opened the meeting and then cail- ed for a grand march which presently left 19 grandmotbers lined up along one wall and they were asked to take front seats. Prizes were presented to Mrs. J. D. Stevens, Mrs. Fred Stevens and Mrs. Edwin Ormiston, the el- 'dest, the youngest and the grand- mother who had the most grand- chiidren. Roil cail was "where my ma- ternai grýandmother was born." During the business period it was announced that Hampton W. I. will visît Maple Grove in Sep- tember. It was also announced that the Co-Operative program wili be held in Bowmanville fromn 1:30 to 4 p.m., on September 18. Lecture for the meeting, "Heaitb before and after forty." A nytion was cêrried that we accept Mrs. I. R. F'utcher's sug- gestion that we ask the local pap- ers to carry ber day-by-day let- ter from the meeting of the As- sociated County Women of the World, to be held in Copenhagen in September. It was announced that cup- board space in the church kitch- en would be lef t vacant for the W. I. dishes. Mrs. Morley Flintoff, Conven- er for Historical Research and Current Events was in charge of the programme. Mrs. Ken. Summerford and Mrs. Ernie Twist, in charming old time costumes, sang "Put On Your Old Grey Bonnet" and "Coming Tbrough the Rye." Mrs. Wallace Munday spoke on the motta "Make New friends but keep the old, the new are silver, the aid are goid." Mrs. Munday gave much food for thought in speaking of the value of friends in living framn day ta day and of the qualities of friend- ships. The real friend is one wha knows aur faults and failings but stili carnies an. Time brings changes in living and it seems inevitable ta not make new friends and good friends but there seems a differ- ent quality in the aid friends. Mrs. Summersford and Mrs. Twist sang "The Old Spinning Wheei" and "Can't You Bring Back the Olden Love Days." Mrs. O. W. Rolph, Orono, Dist- rict President, spoke on aur standing committees. Our basic programme is fofr, Heaith, Edu- cation, Culture and Citizenship. If the W. I. branches follow closely the programmes as relat- ed ta the standing committee's subjects, life may be broader, richer and heaithier, bath phys- ically and mentaily. Public re- lations may be satisfactory and better chances of peace in aur time when women work together an these programs. Mrs. Ralph suggested that five minutes be given 'at each meeting for cur- rent events. History is in the making, are we a part of it? In speaking of the importance of goad nutrition, especially in caring for and feeding children, Mrs. Rolph quoted Dr. Alan Brown who said that children not properly naurished and not bav- ing adequate rest might appear well and do well in schooi but it toak twenty years to wear down the human body and in that time 5Y BIG 12 oz.

Mr. and Mrs. Wally Breck and Mr. and Mrs. R. Carter spent their vacation at Ottawa and the Haliburton district. Many from here attended the Rotary Carnival in Bowmanville last -week and won many lovely and valuable prizes. FREEDOM FOR FARMERS The Rural Scene believes that the future of Canadian agricul- ture depends on the right of the farmer to manage his own bu iness, ta plan bis own aperations, to grow such crops, as in bis opinion, are suited to his land and acceptable to the market, and to dispose of them ln a ln"p ket. through agenei lm h choosing. 1 [t believes that the fre 2nw&o is the only true guide for the far6 mer, because it is the on]y in&tn ment that truly reflects the 2îe of, humanity and ita ability supply them. For this reason It là opposed ¶q the present trend towards market. ing schemes, marketing board4ý controlled prices and their in, evitable concomitant, controllei production and operation of thé forms by authorities who may or may not understand *what they are doing but who will certainbl,. make the fermer pay for ail theo blunders. The Scene believes that tinlesa this trend is checked it will re. suit in deprîving the farmer of the contral and ultimately of the ownership of bis land, and will reduce him to the status of the serf, compelled to do bis mast. er's bidding and baving flq other right than the right to obey.
