Holly of Tomstown~ was_ proceeding north. Occasional 'fog anda heavy rainfall made driving con- ditions hazardous; in the head- on collision which occurred about 6:30 p.m. both vehicles were de- demolished. Benjamin Chambers of New Liskeard, a passenger in the truck suffered serious facia] in- juries; Gordon Holly of Toms- town received a fractured skull; James Marshall of Tomstown had a fractured shoulder and Carl and Sydney Swinston of Tomstown were seriously cut and bruised. Haileybury At 12:30 am. on Thursday Theodore Gilbeault of Cobalt was driving north on the Lake Shore Road and according to him, fell asleep at the wheel. Directly in front of the home of Mrs. W. E,. Bagshaw the car went over the five foot Lake Shore embank- ment, crashed into. the dock and landed on its side. The impact moved the dock, owned by Steve Bond, some eighteeen inches. Miss Betty Ann Bagshaw went to the scene immediately and first aid renderd to the victims at her home. Dr. W. C.

Members To Set New Date for Annual Meet The Caamber of Commerce has postioned its annual meet- ing for the third time. As Sec- retary John Valentine pointed out postponed meetings are no- toriously poor but in this ins- stance, the situation has occur: red through the fault of no one. All business men and _ citizens will, we feel sure, agree with Vice-President Alan Hurst that since there are matters of un- usual importance to come before the meeting, it would be a mis- take to proceed without the leadership of President Leo Gough who has been so active throughout the year. Mr. Gough was called to Toronto last week and was unable to be back in time for the meeting. It was left with the Secretary to decide anew date for the meeting sometime within the next ten days. If plans materialize, Bol Herbert, MLA., will be the guest of the Chamber so _ that existing confusion on _ several issues, the by-pass route in par- ticular, can be cleared up. Ian MacDiarmid drew the at- tention of those present to a new matter--the possibility of an abattoir for Northern On- rio and it was agreed that one or more farmers who are familiar with the subject might address the next meeting. O, E. Walli was asked to give his opinion on the merits of try- ing to establish a University in Haileybury. He said that he felt success depended on having the Univerity established in a lar- ger centre because "you must have your core from the imme- diate area." Haileybury is so small that it could not supply the necessary number of students to establish the school." If a stu- dent is going to leave Timmins, he "will naturally choose one of the established major universi ties, if he has to travel any dis- tance at all. Referring to the engineering courses, Mr. Walli pointed out that today, in all Canada, ther are fewer students graduating in mining than equals the student body at the Institute here. Un- til these classes are crowded, there is no merit in thinking of a four-year B.A. Engineering course here, M. E. Whitby suggested that there should be a better system of notifying al] stores in the case of emergency closings for sey- eral hours. It was decided that the Secretary should be notified of the wishes of the merchants and have appropriate signs sted in town. Boxing Day will be declared a holiday on Monday, December 27th. Mayor H. A. Day pointed out that in actual fact Council had no authority to declare pub- lic holidays, other than one Civic holiday set out in the Dominion Statutes; however, if it was the { the Chamber, the Mayor said he was quite agreeable.

AS sil diviesdayaeeer ce nee 33 Wednesday ....... Ze ale Rotary Club Hears Talk on Farm Organizations Rotarians turned to farming at their luncheon meeting this week, Harvey Plaunt of New Liskeard was guest speaker and Step by step ae outlined the growth of farm organizations and their purpose in the scheme of things. " do something, "We had - to Mr. Plaunt said, "to take the place of the -- sociability ot the olden days." The Farm Forums came into being 'filling a two-fold purpose in that they bring the farmers together and provide an opportunity to study conditions, Last -year, in On- tario there were 719 groups in operation, "After listening to a panel of experts discuss the problems of the radio, group discussions are held and the results forwarded each week to head> office in Toronto. In this way, a cross section of opinion is readily available." The local Federation of Agri- culture consists of representa tives of all farm organizations meeting once a month. "The purpose of this federation" the speaker said, "is to coordinate all the efforts of the local organ- izations." Stepping up again, the Ontario Rederation of Agriculture, a non- political, non-denominational body again acts as a co-ordinat- ing agent to tie in the efforts of all local groups and is therefore well fortified with facts before presenting a case to higher levels. Across Canada, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture is the yOice of the farmer and the final step is the International Feder- ation of Agricultural peoples, «.\s an example of the good it- fluence of the Ontario Federa- tion, Mr. Plaunt pointed out that "this body was instrumental in setting up United Livestocl Sales whereby pork is all chan- nelled to proper places, It used to be that meat was all shipped haphazardly and often causeda ptice to be based on a surplus whereas in actual fact, there was no surplus in the over-all picture.", ED.

Annual Appeal The people's generous re- sponse and the hard wokr of the canvassers during the Children's Aid Society campaign Aas made chairman J. E. McDonough very happy this week.
