But, at the meet4ngs ai tbe London Confer- ewe af the United Churcb of Sar- nia, the pastors and lay delegates dlacussed this matter and decid- ad they should try ta bring pastor- al salaries up ta $2,400 per year. The reports given the London Conferencé indîcate the United Onzrch la making steady progress. Oongregations bave their up and clowns and each minister bas bis own problems. Yet there is a steady advance in the work. There h as ta be entbusiasm ail tbrough the cburch activities and cleargy <4 and Iaity can combine ta bring a spirit of encouraging purpose ta their endeavours. Congregations expect so much oxf their pastors. Tbey want a j man wbo is a financial wizard,' a fieny preacher, a keen diplon'.at,t a wbiz organizer and a lot of other things, and they want ta get hlm for a basement bargain price. PATRONXGE ORt CIVIL SER VICE (Port Hope Guide) A Liberal rally reported in the Guide, featured Frank Rickard, a staunch member of the Liberal party and member of parliament for 10 years. Mr. Rickard was quoted as say- ing that he had been asked ta re- conend a postmaster for Port H-ope's suii-post office. "I did,"' aaid Mr. Rickard, "and I think you are very satisfied with him." Undoubtedly Port Hope is sat- r isied with Mr. Rickard's choice, il his choice it was. Mr. Ron Wakely has been a resident of Port Hope for many years. Bath ig business and socially, Mr. Wakely has acquitted himself as a highly desirable citizen and no one can cast aspersions at such a imarn witbout minutely defined r eas0fl5. However, that is beside the point. We do flot wish ta discuss Mr. Wakely's ability or personal i'lght ta hold the position of sub- postmnaster. Rather, we would question Mr. SWEET CAPORAL CIGARETTES XAMPTON Rickard's right ta reconmmi postmnasten. From wbene we it would appear that he wa uiinding the party faithful th matter who is presently rw on Durham's federal ticket F'rank Rickard, la stili in el af patronage hereabouts. The appointing af a sub- master is, we believe, a civil vice responsibility and be that it should be treated asi and not, if what Mr. Rickard is true, by asking for per. recommendations.

Tha't's the ques- tion the C.C.F.-ers bave asked and answered. Seize the C.P.R. Seize the mines. But by-pass the jolly aid f armer 1 Take aver the batiks ai Canada. Set up export-impart boards, who handle the. farmer's output. But why sbould aur Socialists, wbo plan to boss the. country, came so long as the farmer produces? The political bosses will set the prices, juggle the. currency, jug- gle the. prices ai imports and ex- parts, and if the farmers don't like it what are they going ta do about it? Possession is nine points ai tii. law, and the iarmer's products will be in the possession of tbe politicians because there won't b. anyane else wha will b. allowed ta handle thein. Taking over the banks ia the real stroke. By juggling maney- inflation-tii. Socialists will b. able for a while ta make the farm- ers believe they are doing great things for agriculture. Mean- timie, through money juggling, the whole capitallst setup can b. wiped out the same as Hitler did It in Germany. When that bas been accomplisb- ed wili be the time ta, deal with the farmers, and they'll be so- cialized and told what ta do wbetber tbey like it or not. The European pattern bas been plan-4 ned for Canada. It'll b.e asy when tiie politicalJ bosses grab contrai ai the bgnksE and create sufficient chaos ta make it simple ta set up tiie kind ai dictatorship they must bave ta socialize everytbing and maket everyone a slave ai the State. s E.ver since man ate af the Ti of Knowledge be bas, been out a limb.

A. Werry is erecting a barn wbich will be modern in ail its appoint- ment. Vertu McMullen, af Pontypool, is the contractor, Bothwell Bras., Maple Grave, are taking over the cancrete work. The foundation stands 118 feet bY 38 feet with 9 foot clearance inside. Stabling is equipped with wide end doors with intention of using witb hydrauiic lift and mani- ure bueket for cleaning. Spaciaus windows, soutbern exposure, pro- vide fine naturail ighting. EIec- trical installations and plumbing are in charge af F. W. Werry & Son. The tri-hip roof is set on the foundation with height of 24 feet' at the peak, cutting down barn space *with the idea of modern equipment for storage of baled bay and cut feed. The system of end pull eliminates the drive door. When completed 120 cattie can be housed. The 41 rafters went up in record time with about 75 men, keen and active, on the pike pales and wielding hammers wlth, steadying nails, holding the frame work in place. Mrs. Werry with a bevy of will- ing assistants, served a bountiful supper. Thus another landmark is set up on this historie farm. Many were present who attend- ed the barn-raisîng just forty years aga when Jas A. Werry, E. A. Werry's father, bad a raising- a fine barn which, unfortunactely was destroyed by fire. E. A. Werry and Mrs. Werry wish ta thank neighbours, rela- tives and ail who in any way as- sisted in making this day pass 50 successfully and pleasantly.

Durham County Winners at Brooklîn Spring Fair Brooklin Spring Faim broke al records in the way of attendance when more than 4,000 people thronged the faim grounds Satur- day, June 4. The number ai entries also exceeded the num- ber sbown at any former fair and the weather turned out just rigbt for the occasion. Exceptionally strong classes In thie livestock divisions brought out many breeders wbo show at1 the great annual faims in Toronto and elsewhere. In the harse classes many weIl known naines fram Durhamn were listed as win- ners. Bowmanville came into the picture when Mr. and Mrs. Gea. Cawker camne well at the. top in light horses. Mrs. W. Cawker cap- tured the R. Simpson Special for Lady Driver and also the. Dr. Jas,. Moore Memanial Cup as Best Lady Driver. In beef and dairy cattie, Dur- ham County again took many prizes. Miss Judith Stenger, En- niskillen; Ronald Werry and thers placed well in Junior Farmers Specials and R. P.

Wood deteriorates when the paint weans off. A brokeri post undermines the whole fence. That goes for indoor improvements, too. You gave maney, time and materlal, by attending ta home repaira right away - before the damage gets warse. And every impravemnent adds ta your comfort and ta your pride in your home. If you need mare money than you have on hand to pay for the necessary repaira, see G. E. Maody, Bank of Montreal manager, about a low-cost loan. Save by paying cash.

Canada'% Capital Mecca for Tourlsts Have you ever notlced how closely the hlstory of so mnany af the world's great capitals la inter- Lwoven with that oi the rivera on whose banks they stand? London and the Thames, Washington and the Potomac, Paris and the Seine, Rame and the Tiber-take away the river and you take away a goad part ai their story-and most ai its romance. Sa also with Can- ada's capital, Ottawa, and the river ai the same name, on whose batik it stands. Past the present site ai Ottawa in the seventeenth century came intrepid voyageurs, their canoes laden with rîch peits. For aiter its discovery hy Champlain in 1613, the Ottawa River became the bighway ai the fur trade ta the west. But the fur trade caused noa settlement aiong the river and Ot- tawa owes its origin ta the aiter- math and resultant bittemness of the war oi 1812-14. Fearîng at- tack by the Americans while fol- lowing the water route up the St. Lawrence River ta Lake On- tario, the British decided ta build a new route that would be wbolly within Canada. And sa, in 1826, Colonel John By ai the Roy-al En- gineers was commissioned ta con- struct the Rideau Canal, the in- land waterway between the Ot- tawa and St. Lawrence Rivers througb the Rideau chain af lakes and rivers, and at the junction ai the Ottawa and Rideau Rivers he set up bis headquarters. Colonel By estaiblisbed bis men ln barracks on the present site ai the Parliament Buildings and bere grew a village, named ln bis honour, Bytown. With the coin- pletion ai the canal in 1832 the new route up the Ottawa and down the Rideau ta Lake Ontario became a reality and Bytown, strategically situated at the junc- tien ai the two, rivers, grew mapid- ly and in 1854 was incarporated as a town. Then came the eventful dýay, In 1858, wben Queen Victoria, ask- ed ta select the name and site of the new capital ai Canada, chose Bytown, "the modest village-town percbed meekly on high bluffs and intervening valleys, between the spray and roar ai two bead- long river-falls,"' and renamed it Ottawa aiter the river. Tbree years later King Edward VII, tiien Prince ai Wales, laid the corner stone ai the first Parliament Buildings and on June 8tb, 1866, representatives from this new country assem'bled here for the irst session ai Parliament. A young capital is Ottawa but wbat it iacks in age it makes up in the beauty ai its natural setting, higb on the crest oi the bluff *verlooking the waters ai the Ot- tawa River tumbling down from the distant nortbland, framed by the pumple ai the ageless Lauren. ian hilis and enhanced by the rchitectural perfection ai the Gothic pile oi buildings that stand ke everlasting sentinels on the 3ummit ai Parliament Hill.
