{_ It‘ll probably be a long time beâ€" ‘fore professional sports are played in this country on Sunday but we ‘don‘t condemn Dr. Gallup for tryâ€" Gng to find out for us. After all, jeverybody‘s got to make a living somthow. «Local Lights « f " The Canadian farmer was most ®pposed to the idea (and after us igiving him that raise in the butter price too), while the big city lleyâ€" welcomed the idea with pen arms. The farmers‘ argument as that "there would be too much moise." The only solution to this ‘appears to be to take all the farmers living around Maple Leaf ‘stadium, Varsity arena or the Garâ€" \dens and make them move someâ€" where else. }} The main arguments voiced by 3hose in the negative was that Sunâ€" «day was "a day of rest and a day f worship" and also allowing proâ€" %nional sports to be played on Bunday amounted to one thing; ®commercialization of the . Sabâ€" bath," while the affirmatives argue ‘that Sunday is their only day of elaxation and their only chance *"to get out and around." 60 This week finds us dawdling in that inâ€"between period w h e r e ?jngs are cither just starting or Just finishing and a peek through the local keyholes (getting our eduâ€" cation at Yale so to speak) reveals much to do about nothing.

April 15th is the deadline for your nomâ€" inations of two members each to aet on the District Committee. Your two nominations should be sent as quickly as possible to the temporary officers of the District Committee, Mr. H. E. Harrizon (372 Church St., Weston) and Mr. W. C. Boddington (46 Harding Ave., Hardington). Ths Cubmaster and Scoutmaster in each Group is, as you know, also a member of the District Committee. The better part of last Wednesâ€" day‘s meeting at Troop Headquarâ€" ters was devoted to Patrol instrucâ€" tion. Soma members, who felt that they were sure enough of some of their work were tested by Scoutmaster B. Bryant. Our game was in the form of a game but was actually at the samé time a pretty iood test of our knewiedge of Scout knotsâ€"even to recognlz- ing an improperly tied reef knot. Humber Valley District Notes Problems relating to the Troop itself were also discussed and possible plans for their solution will be further discussed at the next Court of Honour meeting. 1st Woedbridge Did you know that there are 886 | Groups in the Province of Ontario? | That there are 834 Wolf Cub; The first problem to be settled was the date for the Westonâ€" Thisteltown Camlp. This year the Camp will be held for two weeks bginning Saturday, July 13th. The Scouters present were agreed that they preferred and wanted a permâ€" anent Scout Camp site rather than leasing the site and changing from year to year. It was falt that the advantages of a permanent rite were greater than those of a temâ€" porary one. After the Troop meeting last Friday night, the Leaders of the 1st Weston settled down to another meeting, which burnt the midnight eandles very low. Scout master Don Shier, Assistant Scoutmaster Alan Byeérs, Instructor Jim Cole and Troop Leader B. Prentice and as guest, Scoutmaster R. Leonard of the 1st Thistletown Troop disâ€" cussed problems and carefully weighed solutions to several quesâ€" t;‘enl which had been confrontin@ them. The best part about our meetâ€" ing last Monday was the fact that Scoutmaster _ Ray Leonard reâ€" turned to the Troop. Because of a serious operation he had not been able to attend meetings durâ€" ing the past two months. All we hope is that he was as {hd to be back as we were to see him again. During his absence _ Assistant Scoutmaster Alan Byers had carâ€" ried on and in apgreciation of his able assistance the Group Comâ€" mittee and the Ladies‘ Auxiliary presented him with a dresser set. Allan _ Lapping and _ Harry Cooper, who had â€" successfully %used the requirements of ‘the enderfoot tests, were solemnly invested as Scouts and accepted as members of the First Thist®â€" prépared by the Ladies‘ Auxiliary and thoroughly enjoyed by all. 1st Weston Troop 1st Thistletown ‘Troop As a special treat and because of the special cireumstances the meeting closed with a bun feedâ€" Beardall, Eddie Calhoun, Mr. R.

For some time now the proâ€" ducers and creameries have found it more profitable, due to the low floor price of butter as compared in proportion with that of otHfer dairy products, to devote their time to the production of cheese rather |than butter. The resultant drop in | production plus the gresent inâ€" crease in consumption has seriousâ€" ily depleted the reserve butter i stocks to a point where they are in danger of being wiped out.

Raise Production In the recent submission to the Federal Cabinet calling for a wide range of concessions to the Canaâ€" dian farmer, the Canadian Federaâ€" tion of, Agriculture asked that the price of butter be raised 4 cents a pound.
