ESTATE Notes and THANKSGIVING i We could hardly look upon the cele-! bration with the gaiety of by gone' years -- the press, radio and movies bring ,us congtant reminders of the meagre tables and strained nerves of other lands, Even though our own tables were loaded it rather dampened our spirits to know that all the world | was not 'as well provided for, Our farmers and home gardeners have done a good job this year in world to be fed, and care will need to! be taken to make the best use of what we have, It requires the co-operation of many | to get the food from the farmer to the hungry. It goes by railway, truck and boat td the precessing plants, distributing plants, groceries and then into the homes and restaurants. Each worker and executive contri- butes something to the welfaye of de- struction of the world's food supply. Kach7adds something to the cost. 1f we all keep in mind that we are a great army, each with a very neces- sary part although it may seem small to us, in making the world safe and|- happy again. One of our greatest weapons in the building of a democ- racy or the fighting of a totalitarian government is food and lots of it. Shall we all put forth every effort to see that it goes where it is most needed ? - MF.B. ss0 0 TO BE OR NOT TO BE " Mobilization talk is becoming some- -thing more than a loud whisper over the air and in our newspapers these days. Is it wise, we wonder to make quite so much of something that may or may not be the only way of set- tling our difficulties. . When little Johnny gets hold of a box of matches it is almost a fore- gone conclusion that he will: try to light at least one of them. When we bend all our energies toward build-, ing up large forces of manpower and teaching them daily to be prepared to fight to the death at the word "Go" naturally they'll come to a point where . the ideas we have deliberately given | them will demand an outlet and get it--whether we need that kind of so- Jution or not. v If it is reatly necessary to build up our armed forces and equipment to a point where it may be effectual as a matter of emergency defence we sug- gest that it should-be done as quietly --as possible; that to rouse emotions in the general public which may be against their -own best interests as well as for them is a dangerous prac- / Lord Tedder, chief of air staff for England, said recently--"for us to build -up and maintain large perma- nent forces would be the folly that leads straight to bankruptcy and col- lapse. "Britain realizes that as far she just cannot afford to keep huge a BBB Comments A 1 armies and their equipment. She also realizes that she is dealing with a force much more potent than- the actual machines and supplies neces- sary to an armed force. - She is deal- ing with the morale of her people. Addressing a meeting in support of the Government's call for volunteers for the reserve forces Lord Tedder. went on to say--"The spirit of self-' sacrifice and service which brought us through the last war is still alive, It ' spite of the long drought, but each js that spirit which' will once again|as other reports of activiies. What is year sees many more people in the stand us in good stead and give us the Group Committee? Come out to the strength which will ensure us| liberty and peace." | The British people have shown us | in the past how well they are able to weather a storm, We can learn a great deal from them in matters of self-sacrifice and co-operation, We can also learn from them the art of keeping calm when a crises seems to be looming large on the horizon, If we let mobilization talk be linked with {wild speculation we move toward a on Scugog Island, for the marriage of hysteria which cannot do us any good; i which may blind us, in fact to an' avenue of - settlement by peaceful means. Ti Psychologists have learned that con- centration on fear leads to more fear until such a point is reached, that the patient loses all ability to face the problems of real life. We must, as a nation avoid this very type of pitfall. We cannot expect our representatives at the U.N. to solve problems for us by calm judgment if we at home fly into a panic of fear at seemingly in-! surmountable difficulties, Many of these difficulties may be on their-way: to solution by the time they reach our | press or they may have a chance of being concelled out by more recent happenings before we can pass- our opinion on them. We have appointed the most trustworthy representatives we could find. We must co-operate with them first of all by every peace- ful means at our disposal. This means we will not talk war unnecessarily. It also. means that we" won't talk too much about the supplies the govern- ment may find it necessary to demove from the general market. In our personal life we will try to maintain a good balance in our talk and actions. Sort: your newspaper reading for fact and fiction. Deal with the facts and let the fiction go. When we come smack up against a problem with our neighbour let's stop and ask ourselves whether we are get- ting all upset and excited through fear or if we are dealing with the situation in an intelligent way, The world can- not manage any better than its in- dividual people. If 'we cannot live]. together in our own homes we cannot expect the U.N. to settle the com- plex problems it must face, The best contribution we can make to world peace is to live peacefully ourselves-- not to get all excited and ready to fight at the drop of the hat -- You can't come back once you're dead. : --A. F. B, } Ia f J scours Well folks, here we are again to dividuals and Scouts, Our first meeting of the year was held on Sep- tember 16th with eighteen boys at- tending which. was a higher number than we anticipated; but we were glad to see them all. And now after four meetings our numbers have in- creased to nearly thirty; but we are Scouting is and does, come out to one of our meetings and ask our skipper just as many quegtions as you would care to. He knows nearly all the answers and what he doesn't know, he will find out. . We lost a very good Patrol Leader when Phil Coulter moved to Toronto. We were stumped for a good fellow to take his place, so we formed only] three patrols at the start, but sheer force of numbers made us revert back to the original four patrols. The same evening we had a new officer installed, Wes Lane is now our new Troop Leader, and Jim Rider has been put in charge of his Patrol. He has been promoted to Patrol Second, and not being over optimistic as there are always an odd one or two that drop! out by Christmas. It seems you can't] please everybody, no matter what you do,.can you, ; And that goes for our meeting night as well. You: will notice that. we are now meeting on Thursdays. in-; stead of Wednesdays, Our meeting the time is 7.00 sharp, until 9.00. p.m. While we're on the subject of meet- ings, we would be very pleased to welcome all-or any of you good par- ents, or interested persons to any of our meetings, and see. for yourselves an unrchearsed program of Scouting activities which we strive to put across to the boys, It's a tough job unless we have the whole hearted support before long he will be getting his Patrol Leaders stripe we are sure. We also welcome back Dave Brunton 'who was With us a year ago as a Pa- trol Leader and he is again taking over the job of leading the Otter Pa- trol. So that gives us Jack Griffen, Peter Sulman, and Dave Brunton as our P, L's, and a good prospect in Jim, We have a good seasons program outlined and with their help we will have some good Scouting done this Winter. ; 3 \ As you all know, we are having our Boy Scout Apple Day this Saturday.

Two rows of delicate lace_were inserted in her graceful full skirt. A .coronet of orange blossoms held her fine lace-edged, finger tipped veil. She wore a gold pendant with a pearl setting, -a gift of the groom, and carried a cascade of white ear- nations, 4 J Miss Nettie Melnychuk, maid of honor, for her sister was dressed in a heavenly blue net over tafetta and matching bandeau hat.

Two very interésting plays were presented, The first by the group from Woodville, entitled, "Peace--It's Won- derful", certainly pleased the aud- ience. For such a short preparation (three weeks) they turned out a very creditable production with plenty of laughs, and just enough suspence to make' it interesting. The third act of a three-anet play, "Look Out Lizzie!" was presented by the Solina group and was quite a fin- ished production with many amusing characters, and situations. The judges decided that this group was slightly better than the previous, but I am sure many inthe audience felt it was neur- ly impossible to choose. To round out the ¢évening,. several entertaining numbers were provided by the following artists: Harry Rogers, with accordian; Ebenezer Quartette -- George and Murray Osborne, Elmer Down, * Bill Rundle. Ross Metealfe--soloist." Peter Dubyk and Ted Koss, with ac. 3 cordian, guitar and mouth organ.
