BoTTUbs blasts houses and people. Selfishness blasts homes and lives. The "isms'' can only ride into pow. «r on tile breakdown oif our moral â- tandardis. Total responsibility is democracy's answer to totalitarian control. Public life .brings out the states- man's bring^ing up. Some pessimists who think they are wiseacres are really only belly- xchers. Mrs. Jas. Stinson, Springhill, was a recnt visitor with Mr. and Mrs. Albert Stinson. Maple Syrup makers in our midat liave begun the seasonal progress again but are not expecting a very good run. Spring weather has advanced very rapidly and most of the snow has Lieen removed. Crows and robins are • ack again telling us that spring is here. But is spring here to stay? With the spring comes moving time. We welcome Mr. and Mrs. Er- nie Stewart, Maple Grove, to our jommunity. They have come to live on the "better known, Albert Ste- ven's farm" recently purchased from iiussell Linton and Elmo Stevens. Mrs. Jas. Linton is going to make her home with her daughter, Mrs. Stewart. A presentation was ten- dered the Stewarts on Tuesday night at Maple Grove.

Aboet one Ontario farmer out of three has been able to do a better ond more profitable }ob.becaiMe be had the graotatt "hired man" in all history . . . Hydro- Electric power. Imagine having a "hired man" who would pump and carry water for about 3c a day . . . milk cows at about 5c to 7c each per month ... or hoist hoy for about lea ton. That is a sample of what electricity can do, based on the average Hydro Farm cost of SMc per kilowatt-hour. Your Hydro-Electric Power Commission plans for the day when the majority of farmers In Ontario can have Hydro on their farms. Present shortage of labour and materials makes it impossible to supply Hydro service now to everyone who would like to hove It. But make your plans for Hydro service now, and make them wisely. Be sure that when you wire your farm, you WIRE ADEQUATELY for future needs. You may not put in all the electric equipment you want at first . . . but be sure to wire sufficiently, with a good heavy service with plenty of outleto and switches. Then start with equipment that will do most to moke your farm more proAlable.

Mack was also presented with a watch from the Osprey eoun- cil, also wedding gift from friends and neighbors. He was married last week Mack expressed his plea- sure being home again among old friends and thanked the people on behalif of himself and his bride for the gifts and welcome on his happy return.

Readings by Bobby Nicholls and Hazel Jackson were much enjoyed. Mrs. Milton Bannon's "household hints" proved quite beneficial, es- pecially to those with small children eTample. "Don't let the babv play with a razor he might spoil it." Em Stinson in characteristic cos- tume ably explained "The High Cost of Living". Two short plays by the young people, "You Can't Fool Aunt Julia" and "Henry's Mail Order Wife'' were verv interesting comedies.

POULTRY The Poultry Market outlook for 1945 is n»ber good as there is reasonable assurance that the same export market will be available for this year's crop. The prices will, therefore, be ap- proximately the same as last year..^ In 1944 we bought the large portion of our poul- try on raU grade basis, which meant more money to the producer for good qu 'try. We are still doing this and intend to even a greater extent in the future. Notice to Our Patrons If you still have some chickens or a surplus of fowl bring it in. We will buy them alive or dress them for you ami buy them rail grade. Our prices are good.
