Durham patato growers are planning ta attend the Annual Potata Field Day at Chafee, N.Y. The Field Day, beld Thumsday, August 3, wiil feature the iatest potato ma- chinemy in operation. Junior Potato Club members and many other interested farmers have al- meady made arrangements for the trip. Tho.usands of cars are expected ta converge on Chafee and, ac- comding ta information received, same farmers intend ta utilize the local airfield. Figuring moughly, the round trip from Bethany ta Chafee wil be 475 miles and an individual round trip ticket will be $7.00. The charge ta travellers is only a nominal amount and does not cover the exact cost o! transpor- tation. The balance of the fare wiil be taken !rom the Potato Growers' account. It is expected that two buses will be chartered ta accammodate those wha wish ta attend the Field Day and arrangements have been made for an early start.

He said he had watched by the hour but hadn't been able ta find out which anc gave the take-off signal. At times, the birds really put on quite a display of wildness and engaged in sanie hectic fights, when, accordîng ta Mr. Hindman, feathers flew al aver the place. When it was all over, there were a few casuaities left strewn about the field of -battlc ta which the others paid absolutely no atten- tion. Now the birds are reaching an age when they are just about ready ta leave their happy home behind the wire and head for the wîde open spaces. A few have already cieared the 6-foot obstruc- tion and during aur visit were strutting about the outside ares, in most cases, trying ta find a way back in. But, they are stili too young ta be let baose inta the bush where dogs and foxes wouid nab them in short order.

We have synthetic rubber and. a*hast of other manufactured materlals rwhich are more or less clalmed ta be as good if not better than the real thing. As I do flot own a car I cannot pronaunce upon the t nerits of the rubber substitute, but from my acquaintance with motorists I believe they would prefer the product of the rubber plantations. Most substitutes are deveioped because of a shortage or the high cost of the real thlng. The two great wars were chiefly tresponsible for the develapment of many new synthetic materials. The creation af these synthetics is a striking examý,le o! the re- source and ingenulty o! modern man, and particularly o! the com- pelling power o! necessity, the mother o! invention and enter- prise. As the population of the world grows, the necessity for sub- stitute raw materials and even food wiil be mare and more im- perative. The marveilous ach- ievements o!fnmodern science are flot miracles performed by the rubbing of an Aladdin's lamp; they have been the graduai de- veiopment of àndividual initiative and skill, prompted by personal ambition ta excel and produce something the world needed for its advqncement. Ahl progress has been the resuit of personal in- itiative which eventually develop- ed into corporate enterprise. Corporate enterprise h-owever, icannot take the place of or dis- pense wîth individuai initiative and ambition, whether it be ta in- vent a new gadget or process, or whether it be ta operate one and do a job ta the best o! one's ability. Everybody cannot be an inventor, but everybody can and shouid abey the Scriptural injunction: "Whatsoever thy hand findeth ta do, do it with thy might". If that were foilowed there would be fia iabor disputes, no shortages, fia economic problems-domestic or national-and aur social and mor- al problems would be reduced ta the minimum. "For Satan find- eth mischief still for idie hands ta do" Science has invented many me- chanical devices and chemicai pro- cesses that have lightened and speedecI up ahl forms of manual and cierical work, but no one bas yet invented a substitute for work. Indeed it may be said that while work has been lightened, it has been intensified. With ail his inventions, modemn man has flot found relief from the necessity of warking for a living. I remarked upon that fact in the course of Gonversation with a small graup o! friends, and one lady, whose husband bas a steady job at a moderateiy gaod saiary, said the oniy hope of relief from having ta work for a livine was ta get a "break" by winning in a sweep- stake. Judging by the wide sale o! sweepstake tickets, there are millions o! people living in the same hope. But it is a vain hope, except for a minute number of "lucky" ticket holders. And that is fortunate for the world in gen- eral, for if it were possible for everybody ta win a fortune in sweepstakes the entire machinery o! modemn life would corne te a full stop. There is no eàcape from work. For the vast majority of the people in this world the edict sssued at the exit from the Garden o! Eden is stillIin force. Ail aur scientific labor-saving devices have only in- creased the necessity for work in a far. greater varicty o! occupa- tions, and the tendency is for man ta become a slave te the machines he has created. An American scientist recently sg.ggested the possibility of developing a race o! synthetic men, bal! ape, te re- lieve civilized man o! the heavier and mechanical forms o! labor. But he pain ted out that it was the nccessity of work that led ta the deveiopment o! the human brain and man as we now know him. If civllized man ccased ta work for a living he would deteriorate mentally. moraliy and physically, and the haif-m!;n would deveiop and supersede hini.
