Work has commenced on the cen- tral heating plant, This is being installed along the railway siding just opposite the dining hall, The new dormitory is rapidly nearing completion, This fine building will be ready for occupa- tion this summer and will heuse one hundred and twenty boys. Plans for the Gymnasium build- ing have been finally completed and approved. The construction will be started shortly in order to have the building completed by rail, While it is a little early for bees, yet the playing field all last week, morning, afternoon, and evening resembled nothing short of a full grown hive crowded to capacity with these industrious creatures. Baseball seemed to be the most popular pastime with lacrosse and football as first choice when the wind blew cold. On Thursday afternoon picked teams from the Howard Ferguson Scout Troop and the remainder of the School played a nine inning game, The scouts, true to their motto, "Be Prepared," were onto everything and won easily by fif- teen runs. Weather permitting, the boys will attend church in town on Sun- day and every Sunday thereafter during the spring, summer and au- tumn months. Plans are all laid for a bigger and better camp this summer. All that remains is for a suitable site to be chosen. Several are under consideration and it is likely one will be secured within a week or two. All the boys have returned from their Easter visit at their home, Some enjoyed a stay of ten days, others a week and still others, four days.

Credit must be given to the pooling idea for developing a marketing proposition that ensures a price well above 20 cents to the pro- ducer, even at the time of year when eggs are most plentiful, In fact, the Pool price has stood above 30 cents a dozen for the past four years, When Ontario's first Egg Pool was opened in 1924 it appealed to those who had eggs to sell -- particularly the farmer class--as a possible rem- edy for the annual slump in prices that came as surely as warm Spring weather brought increased egg pro- duction, gardless of the effect the Pool has had in stabilizing prices generally, it is interesting to note that over a million dozens have gone! into the Pools of 1924, 1925, 1926 and 1927, that the payment made by The United Farmers Co-operative Com- pany, Limited, as the eggs were graded, was 20 cents a dozen, and that in addition, final payments were sent ranging from 9 to 14 cents a dozen. The total returns to poolers were as follows: In 1924, 31%; cents on extras and 29 cents on firsts; in 1925 and 1926, 32"; cents on extras and 30 cents on firsts; in 1927, 34 cents on extras and 31% cents on firsts. The 1928 Pool is now in operation and will remain open until such time as the management considers it un- wise or unprofitable to producers to store for Fall or early Winter sale, All eggs tagged for the Pool are sorted and graded as they arrive, on- ly sound extras and firsts being plac- ed in cold storage for the Pool. The initial cash payment is 20 cents a do- zen on those pooled while prevailing prices are paid for seconds and cracked eggs. The system of paying cash as the eggs are shipped, and a further cash payment in the Fall, has been proven to be a boon to local merchants as well as to the farmer, Women seem to dress on the theory that nothing suceeds like nothing.--Life, -- AUTO THEFTS ARE REDUCED Survey of 28 Cities in U.S. Shows Great Number of Recoveries Stealing automobiles and getting away with it is becoming harder ev- ery year, according to C. A. Vane, general manager Automobile Deal- ers' Association, announcing the re- sult of a survey just completed of automobile thefts in American cities in which there are ten-year parative records available. In the 28 cities. there were stolen in 1927 a total of 95,083 motor ve- hicles, Of this number there were 87,186 recovered, a total of 91.7 per cent being recovered, or 8.3 per cent remained uncovered. This compared with total thefts of 95225 and total recoveries of 85,114 in 1926, when 11 pere cent were unrecovered. In 1918, the first year upon which statistics were kept on the 28 cities, there were 27,445 motor vehicles stol- en and 21,673 recovered. The unre- covered vehicles were 21 per cent of the number stolen that year in those cities, The 1927 record follows: Recov Stolen ered 316 226 3939 3714 2,379 10,464 2,639 5,641 1,883 Cities (1927).
