The Ail Canada sunvey, bas- ed on reports to the Superin- tendent of Insurance at Ottawa, dealt only with Dominion-re- gistered companies. It was es- timated that if companies re- porting only to provincial au- thorities were included, the to- tal loss would be between $75,- 000,000 and $80,000,000. The year, labelled "the most dîsastrous in the history of in- surance in Canada" long before the official figures became available, brought total earned premiums for Dominion-negis- tered companies o! $611,685,073, 'and total expenses of $680,655,- 610, for a combined loss o! 68,- 970,537 or 11.27 per cent. 1New premium rates now ap- Lots of Time In the old days the 24th of .May was the day small boys went for their first swim and their parents put in the garden. Now we do things a bit dif- ferently. Most of us put off the first swim until a little later but with the gardening we start earlier and we continue to plant much later. No matter what day we celebrate the 24th on now there is still lots of time to have a good garden. Certainly there are some things that should be planted early and like to grow in the cool weather. But most annual flowers and vegetables can be planted right Up to the middle of June and later in many parts of Canada and will do well. The long hours of sun- light plus the well-warmed soil bring these along at what is an amazing rate to those who have neyer before seen Canadian summer growth. Even if we have already done most of our plantings, it is an excellent idea to continue sow- ing carrots, beans, beets, lettuce and other quick growing vege- tables at fortnightly intervals up to mid-June at least. In this way we spread out the harvest and have the highest quality. With annuals too, we can also spread out the time of bloom by repeated sowings. In too many cases, the flower and vegetable garden is completely planted as early as possible and then there is a shortage of bloom and fresh vegetables at the other end of the season. No matter what the reason, if the garden 15 flot planted yet there is still plenty of time. Big Show For New Homes There is no good reason why the hundred thousand new homes built in Canada each year MORRISH Sunday School was held as usual, il a.m. on June lst. There were 45 present. Three birth- days were honored. This was assistants' day and ail were on duty. Mr. George Harness, as- sistant superintendent, teachers Mrs. Edith Brimacomb, Mr. Lloyd Marvin, Mrs. Milton Brimacomb, Mrs. Wright, Mrs. George Harness, Mrs. F. Byers and pianist Marg Beckett. Mr. and Mrs. Allen Peters lef t Malton Airport on Monday, June 2nd for a Wedding Anni- versary trip to New York. We wish them a pleasant visit and safe return. 'Mrs. Ada Johnston of Toron- to, is visitfng for a while wîth Mrs. M. J. Osborne and Mrs. D. Haines. Mrs. Wm. McHolm and Miss Beckett were supper guests with Mr. and Mrs. Milton Brimacomb on Wednesday, May 28th. Mr. William Hamilton is suf- fering from strained leg mus- cles and has had to rest ùpî for a few days. We trust he will soon be up and around as usual. Canton softball team proved to be superior in strength when playing Morrish on Friday last, the visiting team put up a gal- lant fiight but were defeated 23-1. They are now eliminated from further games on Field Day. with Mizpah Benediction. A very pretty shower follow- ed the meeting. Mrs. Ruthven, Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Clan- cy took charge of this, and Presented Shirley Tufford with her gifts, attractively arranged on a table. Mrs. Francis Tufford assisted Shirley with unwrap- ping the parcels, and with the Im ulti-colored ribbons and bows created a most becoming bon- net for the bride-to-be. Verses expressing kind wishes were re ad and gifts were passed for ail to view, after which Shir- l ey thanked her friends for their lovely gifts and kind fwishes. The hostess and assist- ants served a dainty luncheon and a happy social h our follow- ed. A vote of thanks wvas ex- tended the hostess, committee, and all friends who contributed to the joy and pleasure of the evening. Carpenters have been very busy in the community for the past six weeks. A new metal Ibarn has been erected for Char- lie Raby;' Zion Church has a new aluminum roof. Chas. Men- eiliey's home was also to be shingled and several others are yet to be done. Mr. Statnlev How of Swift ICu rrent. who has been visiting his cousin, Mrs. Stanley Jones, reundhome Friday evenimg. ply in many of the fields, par- ticularly in automobile insur-1 ance, but the Federation repres- enting practically ail national- ly-operating companies could not predict substantiaUly the increased premiums would off- set heavy dlaims costs. "Over the last f ive years, premiumn income of the corn- paies has încneased 44 per cent, but claims paid have in- creased 86 per cent, with the. $69,000,000 loss as a resuit,"' Ail Canada spokesman said. "Somewhere alonýg the line- either from increases in pre-1 mium income or decreases in amounts paîd out in dlaims- that discrepancy will have to be ovencome if companies are ta survive." The heavy loss in 1957 carne on top of a $28,000,000 loss in 1956. In 1955, ail companies combined showed a profit o! some $10,000,000 or less than two per cent. CenLnd& 5mt~ should look bare and lonely. True it wiil take time to soften their lines with trees and shrubs but a great deal can be done in the meantime with annuals. While we are waiting for the permanent plantings to grow we dan easily substitute with some- thing that in a few weeks will Plan be as big as perennials that take several years to attain maturity. To take the place of peren- niai vines, we can plant scarlet runner beans, hops, morning glanies or other quick growing climbers. For shrubbery we go through the seed catalogue and select those things that grow two ta five feet tail, giant mari- golds or zinnias, cosmos, ti- thoniai, cypress, dahlias, cleomes. celosia and cannas, are some of them. These big busy annuals, planted in clumps within two or three feet of walls and fences, will change a new house from a raw building into a real home. In front of them, of course, we can plant smallen annual flow- ers of which there is an un- limited variety available. St'urdy and Uniform In recent years gardeners have been offened an increasing as- sortment of hybrid flowers and vegetables. These are hand or mechanically pollinated crosses between twa different strains and the result is a progeny usually far supenior, to either panent, more vigorous, drought and disease resistant. In flowers the colours are usually more vivid and the blooms much langer. With vege- tables there is a big improve- ment in quality and the heads, cobs, roots, as the case may be will be as uniform as a row of Grenadier Guards. Many plants in the flats now are hybrids and will be marked usually Fl or F2, that is first generation or second. These represent the cream of the plant breeders' handiwork. They are usually higher pniced than plants of open-pollinated seed. The first generation Fi is husky and has uniform appearance ail down the now. Flowers of one colour are abundant through the seas- on. The second genenation bas, to a large extent, the qualities of the first generation with a much wider colour range than is normally available.

I Q UL'ENi More than one hundred years ago a resolute group of pioneer families founded the hamiet of Darlington Milîs. God-fearing, freedom- loving, self-respecting, neighborly and with faith in the future of their chosen land, they attacked the wilderness with axe and plough to lay a firm and true foundation for the Town of Bowmanville, which this year is celebrating its centennial. Since those early days, mien and wonien from many lands and of many faiths have contributed their skills and talents to the growth and betterment of this community. Ail too many of the men died in foreign lands in defence of our way of life, but now most lie in peace in Bowman- ville Cernetery. It is meet and fitting, therefore, that we should annually pay tribute to the nienory of those nmen and women through wvhose labors we live ini peace, beauty and freedom.
