New- 't castle United Church, Monda.' evening with between 40 and 5C Sin attendance. Jack Allin coni ducted the devotionai perioè twhereupon Earle Brown, presi. dent of the Newcastle Union, wel- comed the Orono Union, togethe: lwith guests. The speaker wa Mrs. Percy Hare, Newcastle. whc recently with her husband bad returned from a tour ta "thE tSunny South" going as far a Cuba. From the standpoint of social intercourse the world is shrivel- lîng up, said Rev. Lawrence H, Turner, in introducing the speak- er. opening that excursions ta the sunny south are becoming more common than yesteryear. Tht first contact o! interest narrated by tht speaker was that a! warshipping with a colorec congregation in North Carolina, designedly sought out by the trav- ellers. Obviously they were Negro people well establishec financially since Packard carE and others of similar lineage were seen parked at the curb fringing the church. This church was celebrating its l5th anniversary o! its founding which, obviously, antedated the abolished slavery itself. Three chairs were in attend- ance on this occasion, two facing each other in antiphonal arrange- ment. tht other gracing tht choir loft fringing the chancel. Sig- nificantly enough tht Sacrameni o! the Lord's Supper was the central act of this service and the colored folk felt highly honored that two white people graced the congregation. On this occasion Mr. and Mrs. Hare were invited ta speak in this Methodist Church, bringing"~reetings ta them from the United Church of Canada ln general and Newcastle United Church in particular. One is re- minded of Oxenham's immorta] hymn: "In Christ there is no East nor West, In Him no South nor North But one great fellowship o! love Throughout the whole round earth." Mingling with the congrega- tion at the close o! this monu- mental service Mr. and Mrs. Hare met a young colored man whc had attended the World's Chris- tian Youth Convention in High Park United Church, Toronto, two summers ago. Ht showered high praise upon the Canadian people relating a hospitality whichi had been of the highest and the best. Said Mrs. Hart, "The a!ternoon was weariA1g on before we could get away from these people, so warm was their fellowship and appreciation." Continuing the narrative tht speaker revealed that this Church or Cause had been founded by a young Negro Evangelist. Evans by name, who, contrary ta law, had swum across tht river' at night, leading bis fel- low slaves in prayer, praise and tht exposition o! God's word. Despite having been arrested and warned against this practise he nevertheless continued and here a!ter tht evolving of 150 years bis name wreathed by a spirit o! fearless devotion, was being honortd. A cangregation, an o!!shoot of this church, First Methodist Metropolitan, a dist- ance of 150 miles away, was ta be in attendance at tht evening service ta share with and in the inspiration o! the day with the mother church. Pointing the nase of the Ply- mouth still lu tht direction o! the deep south, points o! interest nar- rated were: Daytona Beach. made famous by Campbell, tht British speed demon who set up a new speed record for autos; Palm Bleach and West Palm Beach, the haven o! millionaires and then on ta Miami tht City Beautiful. Tht buildings ln tht city propeir are guilded with restful pastel hues pleasing ta tht aesthetic spirit and restfui ta tht tyts. Miami proper is linked with Mi- ami Beach by a stries of bridges which in their tomn are flanked by man-made lagoons possessed by weaitlîy people. Tht haven o! tht Hart's was tht "Hotel Tropicana.' air-con- ditioned throughout. Mrs. Hart Free School Books For The Kiddies "'Equality of opportunity is the beacon and goal of our people," said Premier Leslie Frost announcing free text books for every child in elemen- tary schools of Ontario. Here the Prime Minister is shown with the school bookcs of the four children of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Black, Toronto, who attend Lord Dufferin public school in the Ontario capital.

Sc Ways of Business Changed Since Days 0f Beni. Franklin (By R. J. Deachman) "There seems ta be but three ways for a nation ta acqoire wealth. Tht first is by war, as tht Romans did, b 'y plundering their canqoered neighbo-s, This is robbery. The second by com- merce, whicb is generally cheat- ing. Tht third by agriculture, tht anly honest wav, whereiu man receives a real increase o! the seed thrown inta tht gcound, ln a kind o! continual miracle."- Benjamin Frankinu, 1767. A frieîîd o! mine sent me a !ew days aga this quotation from Benjanmin Frankino. He asked me what I tlmought o! it. I think Benjamin Franklin was right at tht time this statemeîît w-as made but I wonder how manY o! oui- aid aphorisms would survive a lapse o! 184 years-!rom 1767 ta 1951 and stil retain the same significance. Tht statement that commierce is "gtnerallv cheating" mav have carried a measure o! ti-uth in those distant days. Commerce tlien was flot organized as it is today. It consisted o! the direct exclhange o! praducts. the gaads o! one country for tht products o! an- other. It bore only slight rela- tionship ta tht internîational ex- changes we have todav. Total expocts !rom Caniada in 1950 wvere vaiued at $3,157,0>72,- 673, total imports were $3,174,- 253,138. These two cambined amaunt ta $6,331,325,811I. Dots anyone who reads this stacy he- lieve that this is "geiierally cheat- ing." Then it wauld mean <bat an enarmous îîumber o! tht people o! Canada were growing rich by cheating each other which accord- ing ta lhe late Mr. Euclid, as I kîîew hulm ii m'Y school days would be impassible! But these are nat the onl,, co,,nu,- niercial transactionîs takig place in a single year iii the Dominilon o! Canada. There is aur damestie trade, tht trade among tht prov- inces. which must represent tre- mendous soms. It wauld ho pretty difficult ta believe that ail this huge volume o! business rep- resented 'chtating." Then how do we accouîît for tht statement a! Benjamin Frank- lin? Ht was ont a! tht greatest names in American history. Ht was boru in 1706, died lu 1790, and though flot holding high pub- lic office he was an influential factor lu American life. It is trot that iii tht early stages o! aur commercial development, trade was a rather risky business. Bni- tain was for ytars a leader in world trade and stili stands fairly high ou tht record. Trade at first took the form o! loading a shia sailing ta some distant part, stîl- ing tht goods carried. then boy- ing !rom others the produels which might have a market back home. Tht situation is different today. Tht sea, so far as piracy is con- cerhed la safe as any other high- way o! commerce. Tht markets are known. A shp -cari sail ta Canada and pick up a load o! wheat almost any day in the ytar. Tht same can be said o! Brazil. if it is coffet wt seek. For wool we may go ta Australia, tht Ar- gentine for meat. Tht state o! tht market lu these countrits 1'. known before tht ship leaves. Tht produets eati be ordered hy wire. Trade, throughout tht world, is an ordinarx' every da% af fair. It has ceased ta involve great risks-we eau insure again.-t tht minor risks which always ex- ist. Benjamin Frankino, if lie wrote IodaxY, w-ould tel] o! the tremeuidous changes which have taken place. Tht commerce o! -ils day' was a mert uotlîing com- pared ta tht commerce o! todayv. j The reason for this great changýý lies primarilv in tht tact tlîat com-1 nerce gives us a better life. a1 uigher stanidard o! living than 1 wt ev.er had befoce.1 Tht change which has taken c place iii foreign trade is truc also t so far as domestic trade is con- ' The Voluable Part Neat Plays In New Discoveriesi nMedicine The following article is clipped from a bulletin issued by "The I ndu s t rial1 and Development Couneil of Canadian Meat Pack- ers" which we found extremely interesting and we are therefore passing it on to our readers. The article was headed "Meat and Medicine." The valuable part which meat plays in the human diet as a protein-rich. protective food is well establishe5d. Less well known, but none the less important, are the ever increasing uses beîng dis- covered by medical science for certain by-products of the meat packing industry. For example, many animal glands and glandu- lar substances, once virtually wasted, are now sought after by pharmaceutical laboratories and used in the manufacture of im- portant drugs regularly prescrib- ed for a host o! human aliments. While the volume o! many o! these special substances must generally be measured in terms o! pounds, or even ounces, and is therefore insignificant in relation to the annual tonnage o! meat handled. nevertheless their value in terhxs o! the relief of human sickness and suffering is great. The well-being of many people today, and in many cases their very lives, depend on a constant supply of fresh glandular products moving from packing plant to laboratory and finally ta hos- pital or drug store. Altogether there are some 20 animal glands from which var- ious pharmaceutical produets are made. Catile and hogs pravide the major sources, although cer- tain glands from calves and sheep are also utilized. Most glands are so small, or the amount of a particular substance secreted in them so minute, that many ani- mals are required to produce even a pound of raw material. A great maoy more are needed to pro- duce a pound of the final drug. Foir this reason larger establish- ments, slaughtering at least 200 to 250) hogs or over 50 cattie per week are in the best position to colleet sizeable and economical quantities. But even tmaller ab- attoirs can conserve some of the larger glands. A recent estimate places the plant value o! beef glands at around 40 cents per head. with pork glands bringing about a third as much per hog. While Rhe net return per head is comparatively small. considering the extra expense of labor, freez- ing and packing, humanitariari considerations supply an addition- ai incentive. Although important new dis- coveries in glandular prepara- tiens have been made recently, in- sulin stili remains o! major sig- nificance. The dramatic story o! the discovery and developmexît o! the insulin trealment by the two Canadian doctors, Banting and Best, some thirty years ago, is already well known. Since that time thousands upon thousands of people stricken with diabetes have been able to ]ive useful live-, through the magic of insulin crystals prepared by an intricate process from pancrèatic glands. To date scîentists have not been able to produce insulin synthetic- ally from chemicals in the labor- atory, thus the meat industry re- mains the sole source o! supply. Since it requires the pancreat'c glands o! about 40 cattie to keep one diabetic patient alive for one year. the maximum possible pro- duction o! this drug the year round is essential for this one purpose alont. While o! more recent applica- tion in the field o! medicine than insulin, the two "'wonder" drugs ACTH and Cortisone have also brought hope to thousands o! suf- ferers, particularly those afflicted by rheumnatic and arthritîc con- ditions. To date these ,prepara- tions have been in limited supply. so that many potential patients have not yet been able te take advantage o! their remarkable properties. It requires the pituitary glands o! about 400,000 hags ta produce a single pound o! the Adreno- Cortico-Tropic Hormone, known popularly as ACTH. When At is considered that that there are an estimnated seven and a haîf mil- lion arthritic and rheumnatie su!- ferers in'the United States alone, it is clearl.v evident that the cerned. That cheating may have existed lu tht past 15, a! course, trut. Somne o! it stil] goeg on but this sort o! cheating is on a pettIv scale. International trade is hig, business and big business cannot bt carcitd throogh on tht basis o! mnisrepresentation. Tht samne is trot o! domestic trade. Vears aga Elbert Hubbard put ail this into ont bright aphonism: '-A crook may run a pèanît stand but a great business must be hound together by integrity,." That statement stands. It is now a guide ta organized bus- iness throughout tht civilized world. Whiit we are et times cansciaus o! tht great chalfiges which have taken place we are in- clined ta forget that the moral atmosphere of a people deter- mines tht progress o! tht nation and here in this wider sphere we are making progress. Ahl this is no reflection on Ben- jamin Franklin. Ht was e unique figure in American history but 1 am not going ta accept a state- nient made by hlm 184 year's ago and applY it ta the conditions o!f lodlay. This is a different age. The eld motta, "ceveat emptor"' 'lttht buyer bewart," while it still max' hold a meaning in a ;ouîevhat attenuated !orm is no longer tht guide of ordinary' bus- ness. Commerce is honest toda.y, moare hionest than it ever was be- fare. Men o! business have ntith- er the time, tht opportunity nor the desire to rab their customers. ro cd) o would be sheer madue ss. Insulin. ACTH and Cortisone- are indeed outstanding. there are many other important medicinal products for which tht basic ma- terial is deiSved fromn the pack- ing industry and which play a vital part in preserving and ex- tending human life.
