?HURSD)AY, SEPT. ist, 1955 Ed Y'u -an'sColumn The Statesman's Grass Roots Columnist On a recent Saturday in Bowmanvile, I trotted cown the main drag ta the cleaners, with a pair ai unwrapped trou- sers In my hot littie hand, anly ta find a placard en the door announcing that the place would be closed at 1 p.m. on Saturdays during July and Au- gust. Sa, back up the street I am- bled, and met Lloyd Ellis, who spotted the pants, guessed what had happened, and enquired if I would like him ta hand them in on Monday morning. Ntr aliy, I accepted bis kind ofier. This incident is not unusuai -na smaii town, and serves ta emphasize one ai the rèasons why s0 many peaple prefer ta live outside the very large cen- tres wbere people have a ten- dency ta grow insular, and in- different ta others' needs. You can just imagine a prom- inent sbae merchant in a large city emulating Mr. Ellis' exain- pic. Like Ducks! The iollowing. five items corne under the heading ai co- incidence: Wben Mrs. Perrett, ai Hamp- tan, reads items in this calumnn about Malton, it brings back p leasant mernaries ai when her a te husband worked arauind the airport at Malton. At that i tie, only two planes were be- ing handied there. Now, it is a hive of industry, with planes shuttling in and out around the dlock. r One night,. when reminiscing I mentianed taking part in a particuiarly trying march dur- ing Sept. 1915, from St. Orner, in France, ta a village in Bel- gium. Joe Winters, in bed 14", tsurprised me with the observa- Etion, You must have been in ithe Second Canadian Division". It deveiaped that Joe was the dispatch rider (on motorcycle) 1from the First Division, wha b ac! guided us thraugh the night, on that long, memorabie hike over those slîppery col,- biestone roads.

In the August issue of this paper, I told af a young lady of Japanese parentage, fi. Group 2. at the Malton Rehab.

It will be financed by means cf smali deductions from the re- turrns on cattie and calves, ac- cording ta an annauncement by the Association President, Har- aid J. Huffman of Blenheim. In announcing the plan, Mr. Hufiman stated that deductions of 10c per head an cattie and 5c on calves would be made on ail aniffials soid through publie stackyards or direct ta packing plants in Ontario, beginning Monday, September 26, 1955. Mr. Huffman said his execu- tive had been authorized by the Annual Meeting iast April ta proceed with the details ai sucn a plan. Since that time they have been busy iraning aut these details and gaining the cooperation ai the variaus sec- tions ai the industry which w,:ll be invaived in aone wayor an- IAmThe L.IJI dl y I arn the library. Listen te my words, Americans, for now I speak. My carnerstiane bas been laid by the great thinkers af ail ages ai men. My walks are sturdy with protection irorn ail the shackles ai wbich man bas conceived-spiritual as well as1 physical. My raiters are strong against the buffetings ai ignor- ance and superstition. I amn a great gift ta tbe maod- crn age, for I arn many thingrs ta many people. 1 arn a war*. rior, crusading against the Idawniall and decay ai civiliza- tion. I arn an open doorway ledgea ad sdeoeom f kanow into a astsohouse a nw- bridge over a bottamiess chasrn ai superstittion-giving passage from the aid ta the new. 1 arn a walI against the batterings ai cammunism and ail other forrns ai slavery that are pushing in on every side.

I arn a jet plane aver the face ai America, leaving a permanent trail behind that ail the world is forced ta look upon and re. spect.

Your beart must ever cberish Sorne faith at any cast. Sorne hope, sorne dreani ta dling ta. Some rainbow in the sky, Sorne meiady ta sing ta, Sorne service that is bigh." Can you show me any bu- man force more versatile than mine? I arn your library.-Anita B. VIorland in the Bremen (In- diana) Enquirer.1 other. For example, he points out that the aniy practicai rnethod ai having the deduc- tians made was through the of- fices ai the dealers and commis- sion agents who seil cattie and calves on the yards and thraugh the packers' when the 'animais go directly ta their plants. This means cansiderable extra office dletail for these businesses, but ail ai them.have agreed ta co- operate because they feel the plan praposed by the Beef Proý ducers' Association will benefit ail phases of the industry. Once these deductions are made, they will be forwarded in full ta the Association Treasury on a monthiy basis. The plan bas been discussed with- GoV'ernment officiais as well as the trade and, Mr. Huff- man feels that many ai the 13o- tential "bugs" which inevitably develop when something new ~ started, have already been ironed out. Indeed, Ontario Minister ai Agriculture, Hon. F. S. Thomas, talc! the Asso- ciation Officers that he was very pleased with the self-belp approach they were makink ta their problems.j While the plan provides thati the deductions will be made on' ail cattle and <alves golsu di-e rect ta packing planta or sold an publie stocyards in On-' taria, it is pointed out that the plan is a voluntary one. Should any producer feel he did not wish ta contribute, he cari ob- tain a refund aithe full amaun&. of his deductions by contacting the Association Treasurer with- in 60 days and giving fuil de- tails of the transaction. How- ever, President Hufiman fee]s sure the number ai such re- quests will be few, since there is littie a beef producer can do for the small amaunt ai the deduction Ivhikh can, in the. long run, pay such good divi- dends. Mr. Hufiman said that the» beei producers - that is the. farmers who produce commer- cial bec!, cattie-had came to- realize they mnust take steps ~ further imprave their produc~ tion, marketing and merchan-. dising methods, if they are ta compete successiully with other branches ai the food industry. Moreover, these other branches are blawing their horns rather louffly in praise ai their pra-ý* ducts. The beef producers feel! it is time they did some *"toot'a ing" for bec! and this plan is intended ta help thern do just that. -M n Thre's an Auto'mati CDefrosting WESTINGHO USE Te NI bedg.i T.Y rM ici" 0.0..Tonr ibrago m1" Westinghoue lu firitfotabring the convenlence o!f automatic defrasting ta every price field!
