PAGE TWO ~~~~TE CANADIAN STATESMAN. BOWANVILLE. ONTA.RIOTHSDOC.2h,15 EDI IORlALS , Time for the Grousers to Do So mething About It! 1 >- I;x2 1 Quite soon now, there ivili be a glorious opportunity for several citizens to show how much sinarter they are than the men who have been governing this town and the surrounding townships and villages for the past year. The race is wide open and presents an interesting future for any able-bodied souls who either wvant to make a great contribution to their community or feel that things have, flot been run properly. By now, :you have guessed that we are referring to the positions on municipal councils which will be coming Up for renewal within the next few weeks. In some places, you may strike opposition f rom some other citizen who also feels he should f ili one of the vacancies. In othersý you will be welcomed with open arms by some long-suffering present. councillor -%hose home and business life have taken such a beating because of his civic duties that he will be more than happy to retire in youi' favor. But, surely, there are many to fi any openings. Certaînly, you have made many comnments showing dissatisfaction with mnany of the things councils have done or critical in the extreme because something of' great importancei has not been under- taken. Maybe, you have been beefing -bout the high taxes and the way councils have been squandering your hard-earned cash. Maybe, you are a disgruntled tax- payer whose sidewalk hasn't been repaired or' whose sewer doesn't provide satisfac- t ion. Whatever the beef may be, now is the time for you to take over a council position and make certain things are uorrected. There are no set qualifications for tounciliors, other than that you nmust be a resident of the community. Education doesn't mean a thing, nor is any particular skill essential. What an opportunity! Admittedly, it is helpful if you know some- thing about proper procedure for the meetings, but you can learn that easily after the Mayor or the Reeve has called you to order a couple of tîmes. Also, of course, you should have a telephone to qualify because you will be amazed how other citizens lîke to search you out and discuss their problems wîth you - some- times in the middle of the night or very early in the morning. It'is better if you have a car, too, because we know you will want to give prompt service when an up- set resident wants you ta come ta his place right away about some difficulty. However, those requirements are not essential to the job. Your sense of dis- satisfaction with the present council will get you far if you decide ta let your naine stand for election. So, take the bull by the horns and get into the swim. You may be able ta gather votes from other dissatis- f ied citizens and you'1l be able ta do the job as spokesman for thein - or get themi ta run too. If you win a council seat, we'1l guar- antee plenty of excitement for you and would almost bet that, at the end of the year, your disposition will have changed considerably. You'll have a far healthiet respect for the work done by councils generally and either you will be cured of your grousing or it will be directed at those confounded cîtizens who demand so much of their public servants. If we can't persuade you ta be a candidate, for heav- en's sake take it easy on the next council. You,.had your chance for fame an-d missed it. 25 YEARS AGO (19,1) Trinity United Cliurch held the 42nd anniversary of th., opening of the building wità Rev. E. F.

But reading further, in the article it said: "The Inter Service Club Council, com- posed of the presidents and secretaries of ail the service clubs in Oshawa yesterday agreed ta abide by the law governing raffles and other gaines of chance. The service clubs will refrain fromn participat- ing in ventures not approved by law enforcement off iciais. 0 "It was stressed that while this decision will no doubt result in the neces- sity of reducing the scope of charitable ,xwork being donc by the variaus clubs, due ta Jack of funds, the business and pro, fessional men, comprising the club mem- bership, have no desire ta associate them- selves with an undertaking which has been declared illegal.

From aur observations these, weekly gatherings of f arin folk ta discuss their problems and successes exert a great influ- ence on the rural people. "Farm people cannot afford, in my opinion, ta miss making the fullest poss- ible use of the national education program which National Farm Forum is provid- ing." This statement was made by H. H.

"It is assumed, too, that officiais will treat each and every illegal undertaking on the same basis s0 that the sale of tickets within Oshawa will be uni! ormly suppress- ed regardless of source and that gaines of chance, not legalized, will flot be held." We understand this action was taken on the request of Crown Attorney, Alex C. Hall and Police Chief H. Flintofi. It is ta be hoped that clubs au-d other organizations in and around Bowznanville ilîl follow the splendid example set by the Oshawa clubs. It is long overdue. Canadians have been openly violating the Criminal Code of Canada which forbids the raffling of tickets in chance lotteries. We agree with the persan who recently wrote a letter ta the press stàting gamb- hing has grown ta such proportions in this country that it is only second ta the curse caused by spirituous liquors. on getting forums organized and ready to go before the opening broadcast on October 29.") "Every neighborhood," Mr. Hannan said, "should have one or mare active Farm Forum. The leadership, the information and the better communities, better farm organizations and better provincial and national programs for agriculture." "'You will'*be doing your community and yourself a good turn by getting out this month and making sure your forum gets off ta a good start-or by organizing a néw forum," Mr. Hannain said. The Statesman, as in past years, will gladly publish the findings of the Farm Forums in Durhamn County each week if each forum will appoint a press secretary ta assume this important duty. Gangi of St. Enoch's Presbyterian Church, Hamilton, was equally outspoken. At Gaît he is reported as saying in a discus- sion of evangelisin and social action: "What wve need is informed and intel- ligent church members who will bring the dlaims of Christ ta bear on every aspect' of life. What we have is mere Sunday Christianity. When I say modemn Christ- îans are dumb, I mean they don't speak and they don't act. People in our times scem ta lackç religious conviction, and what conviction thev have they rarely artic- ulate. Christian conviction should- be applied to cvery single sphere o! human endeavor." He further said: "We spend sa much turne oiling the machinery of aur cangrega- tions acting as pubiicity men and hand- ing. a multitude of other jobs that we have no time for the job for which xve were calied. Whiie we criticîze these (other religions) wlichl accept converts in large numbers. let us at the same time examine oui-selves." Pity the Poor Secretary! If you have ever been a secretary of an organizabion or society o! any kind you will appreciabe this little treatise on this important individual, which we came across in aur readingr this week: "If a Secretary wnites a letter, it's too long. If he sends a postai, ifs too short. If he doesn't send a notice, he is lazy. If he attends a committee meeting he's but- ting in. If he stays away, he is a shirker. If he duns the members for dues, he is insulting. If he fails ta coilect dues, he is siipping. If he asks for advice lie is incom- Petent. If he does not, he is hull-headed. If he writes his reports complete, they are too long. If he condenses them, they are incomplete. If he talks on a subjeet, he is trying ta run things. If he remains quiet, heýhas lost interest in the meetings. Ashes ta Ashes, Dust ta Dust; if the others won't do it. the Secretarv must."

[providing the bog producers of Ontario seli their hogs in a 'manner acceptable to tbe pro- cessors. Charles Mclnnis. president of the Ontario Hog Producers Co-. aperative, announced this fol- lowing a meeting yesterday o! representatives from the Meat Packers Council, the Ontario Hag Producers' Marketing Board and Co-operative, and the Farm Products' Marketing Board a' Queen's Park. The two orders recently pass- ed by the marketing board un- der autharity of the Farmn Pro- ducts Marketing Act require that all shîppers o! bogs in the counties o! Grey and Bruce de- iver these bogs only to three autborized points; the Ontari:3 Stock Yards, Barrie Co-op As- sembly Yards, and Kitchener Co-op Assembly Yards: and. require that meat packcrs of Ontario buy ail Grev Bruce Hogs onhy from' these, three au- thorized points. President Mclnnis said that while the packers expressed dissatisfaction wîtb the board'-s present metbod o! selling bogs, they failed to provide a single incident in which the sales board o! the bog producers had flot sohd bogs to the buyer pay- ing the highest price. "Some large packers,"$ Mr. Mclnnis said, "indicated app'-o- val of our selling method. Our producers, however, feel tbd; they are entitled to the right> enjoyed by other industries of selling their goods by private treaty through the services of cxperieniced salesmen. Also, we feel that since these hiogs are the property o! the produ- cer, i. is the producer wlI~ should decide wbat the slil; pahiey will be." sliW "We encired of the packers," Mr. Mckinis continued, "if thev were wîilling ta refrain in the future from making paymerits ta those who transport produ- cer bogà direct to packing plants in defiance a! orders is- sued by aur board.

Meantýme our mar- keting agency continues ta sel bogs. and we continue ta de- velop aur program ta bring all Ontario hogs out onto the open- market. Evidence of the effect o! aur organization in Ontario is seen in the fact that this week in Montreal, where few hogs came onto the open mar- ket, bogs are selling at 211 cents,. In Toronto wbere considerably more bogs are coming onto the open market the price is 301ià cents. How to Reduce Enormous National Firem-Damage In Your Comm'unity More than 1,300 fires occur in an average week across Can- ada-according ta officiaIs o! the AU Canada Insurance Fed- eration-with a total annual cost o! more than $90,000,000.

Keep ail matches out af, reach o! children and in non- combustible containers. 2. Have plenty o! ash trays conveniently placed in al roams. 3. Be sure your ighted matches or smokes are com- pleteiy out before you discard them. 4. Dont smoke in bed. 5. Dos't strike matches in chosets, garages or other places wbere inflammable materials, dust or vapors may be ignited. 6. Employ a skiiled ehectri- cian ta repair or extend wiring whcn neèessary. 7. Buy only electrical applî- ances and cords bearing a ne- cognized seal a! approval. 8 Dan't string wires under rugs, over hooks, whene they may become worn. 9.

The bookiet han been prepared with the assist- ance of Professor J. P. Walker, Department of Poultry, Guelph Agricultural College, and of poultry authorities in Govern- ment agencies anid Agricultural Colleges throughout Canada. The new bookiet traces every phase of poultry raising right from the initial need for an adequate local market condition, to the necessity for keeping ac- curate records of production and sales. Jack Cockburn of Drumbo, Ontario, has contributed a serbes a! cartoon-style illustrations for the bookiet wbicb help to emT- phasize sarne o! bhe more im- portant points in poultry man- agement, such as tbe need for adequate space for the young chicks during the firsi few weeks in the brooder. Selection a! the mast suitabie breed a! poultry is in itself a bighiy important consideration, the bookiet suggests. It notes a trend over the pasi few years towvard specialization. with somne strains brcd ta produce WLa num bers o! eggs, and otersj their abiiity ta put on flesh a- bdly. Results can be more sat- îs!actory, even ai the cost of a !ew more cents per chiclc, if the pouitry producer makes sure that bis chicks have a well de- veioped breeding program be- ' - bind them. Size of the !lock Is another prime factozL The Bank book- let suggests that a iaying flock o! at least 300 puilets is an efficient size, and is aiso prac- tical for brooding, as anc brood- ing unit would be sufficient for starting Fexed cbicks, or twe brooding units for mîxed chicks.
