What proâ€" vision will be made for these firms to estabâ€" lish themselves when the war is over. According to law all employers of men are compelied to give men in the armed serâ€" vices their old job when they return. Obâ€" viously those jobs, in many cases, will no longer exist. All we hear from the politiâ€" cians in Ottawa is talk of land settlement schemes, vocational training and educational grants and other flyâ€"byâ€"night id=as that were all tried out after the Great War and proved to be failures. Political speeches and the advancing of ideas that have already been "bloomers" will do nobody any grood. Is it not time that we dn to mefieme ugness sinly prol Wir oo ous war reâ€" The British Ministry of Works and Planâ€" ning, which is concerned with postwar reâ€" construction on the physical side, is now ready to pass from the stage of inquiry to that of action. r The first part of its task, now accompâ€" lished, is essential to the second. The busiâ€" ness before it, as Britishers have pointed out, is not that of constructing a Utopia, where the commonwealth of one‘s heart‘s desire can be created out of the stuff that dreams are made of; practical reconstruction must be m‘dhymct,devo@dmdy of stubâ€" realities. p C It began, therefore, by appointing two expert committees both of which have now completed the inquiries. The recommendaâ€" tions made by one of these, known as the Uthwatt Committee, in an interim #eport, were accepted by the Government with minor The Government has agreed that a Cenâ€" tral Planning Authority Jor the whole counâ€" try shall be set up with power to control hflldh::mdoflm dnmnnt. and that there should be a fixed of compensation for land acquired in the public interest.

He says it is from the pen of Elitor Redmon ‘Thomas of the Bracebridge Gazette, but the fact reâ€" mains that he started it all by printing in his paper mwmcmdm-flym of the Collingwood district, Nottawnsage township, in particular. I pick the story up because it comes close to my heart. My Grandparents»were Irish. ‘They settled in Nottawasage township and were m"" ""mmum' Duntroon and the Trews on the Eighth Line, part way between Creeâ€" more and Glen Huron. At the time of the great immigration of the poor Irish to Canada, thousands of them died on ship boerd, or almost immediately upon arrival, Editor «hnomson says that there are six thousand unmarked graves of Trisl, : ; migrants near the Victoria Bridge, Montreal. ‘Thes only monument is a huge stone enâ€" scribed with the following epitaph: To preserve from desecration the remains of 6,000 immi!grants who died of ship fever A.D. 1847â€"8, this stome is erected by the workmen of Messrs.

(mmander of the Nazi Security Police: "In woptember, 1845, the potato blight appeared fer the Orst time ;. Ireiand, and the crop was deâ€" stroyed. ‘The farmers made a brave attemypt to *eâ€" gain their loss the following year, depriving themâ€" selves of actual mmwzulitles o borrow money by means of which they were enabled to plant a new crop. With characteristic hopefulness they looked forward to the coming harvest. Again the blight appeared, and the farmers saw their petatoes deâ€" stroyed. ‘Th«n famine came. Men, women and chi}â€" drea died by the bundred, ‘¥et these things could have been prevented by the gâ€"vernment, had it lisâ€" tened to the appeals of O‘Connell and his party, for at the #rst warnings of nature in ‘45 he saw the possibility of a famine and had pleaded for a rea. 1y for such an event. he argued against the exportation of grain, pointing out the fact that, showld the blight reapâ€" pear, grain would be needed to take the plao: of the potato as food, he atruggled to prevent the distillaâ€" tion of spirits, which necessitated the squandering of grain for this purpose, he sought to open the ports that provisions might be received from otu«r counâ€" tries: and he urged the government to lead its aid to the people who were anffering alrcady, Away CHECK YOUR FOOD BY THE COLOUR TEST Some foods have "four colounm", others Add the coloum for ay Back When Frank Fairborn, Jr. not have prevented the blight, but it could have preâ€" vented the consequent suffering and death of the people. In the most callous manner, it refused to disturb the grain market for the sake of the starvâ€" ing millions of Irish, and when the terrible year of *47 finally came with all its attendant horrors, and the people lay dead and dying along the roadsides and in the fields, the amount of grain exported was far greater than was sufficient to feed the whole population of Ireland., It is the bitter truth that with plenty in their own land the Irish people starved to death,. As a uatural consequence of all this misfortune, Ireland was fast becoming a waste. Emigrarion increased, for those who had the opportunity left ta=ir desolate homes and fied to America. But even in their flight the unfortunate Iris~ suffered. Disease followed far:ine; and the wake of many a ship marked the buria} place of those who died in their attempt to flee the shadow of famine and plague. The day came at last when the population of Ireland was two and oneâ€"half million less than it had been before the dawn of "Black Fortyâ€"seven." A number of those families landed in the Fruit Belt. Most notable of them being the O‘Farrells of which our present families of Farrells are descendâ€" ents. ‘The best stone mason that ever was in tbis district was one of those unfortunate immigrants, the late Patrick O‘Farrell, silk hat and all, An exâ€" ample of his work still stands in Grimsby.
