( Christmas Tree And Concert At Harmony On Wed. MRS. KENNETH FLETCHER Correspondent ' Harmony, Dec. 16--The attend- ance at Sunday School yesterday was well over the hundred mark-- 120 to be exact. It was nice to see s0 many in the Bible Class, and to see some who have been absent through sickness for some time. The Intermédiate girls class had the highest attendance, so were the banner class. Everyone entered into the carol singing wholeheartedly -- the Bible Class especially seemed to be putting everything they had into it and we all enjoyed it. Plan Christmas Concert The annual Christmas concert and Christmas tree 1 ill be held at the school on Wednesday evening, December 18, commencing at 7.30 sharp. There is to be no charge made at this concert, although a sil- ver collection will be taken. This year the Sunday School is putting on the concert and much effort and planning has been put into it to make it a success. A feature of the program will be carol singing and, of course, a visit from Santa Claus, who will dis- tribute gifts and candy. Plan to attend this concert. Everybody wel- come. Personals Mrs. Ida Jameison, Bowmanville, visited with her daughter and other relatives here over the week-end. Mrs, Frank Michael is in Madoc, where she has been staying with her smother, who is recovering from a fall. The sympathy of the community is extended to Mrs. M:rle MacKie 3,0 parents, Mr. and Mrs. Dear- porn, Simcoe St. North, passed away within a few days of each other.

Trade, comes at a time when multiple shortages handicap industrial activity and the British people, after seven years' austerity, clamor for more goods at home. "We are short of materials, short of coal, short of timber, short of labor," said Sir Clive Balillieu, pres- ident of the Federation of British Industries, And while the manufacturing trades resume their normal opera- tions, agriculture still is on a war footing. Faced with an acute world food shortage, British farmers still must ccncentrate on growing grain instead of turning back to cattle, hogs and poultry. Shortage Greatest Problem Government spokesmen have termed the over-all Tabor shortage their greatest problem--so pressing that manpower, like finances, are goin to he budgeted next year. From a total working population of about 20,000,000, the same as in 1939, the government must find twice as many men for the forces and peacetime conscription and raising of the school-leaving age will keep youths out of industry. Women are quitting their jobs in large numbers to go back into the home and elderly persons who kept working through the critical war years now are retiring. Already the export Industries, with 1,344,000 workers, have almost 50 per cent more staff than before the war. They need at least 600,000 more to reach the country's export goal--three-quarters more by vol- ume than in 1938. Lifting of wartime labor controls has complicated the problem since workers no longer can be directed into essential jobs. For instance, agriculture must rely on German prisoners-of-war for 15 per cent of its labor force, despite an increase in the farm-worker's minimum wage of £4 10s. ($18) a week. Critical Fuel Shortage Shortage of fuel is critical. Fuel Minister Emanuel 8hinwell has predicted a 3,000,000-ton gap be- tween production and demand, cut- ting the nation's stocks far below the safety level. Arthur Horner, general secretary of the National Union of Mineworkers, has .pre- dicted widespread factory shut- downs unless output goes up. - Among materials, steel is the danger-point. Strikes in the United States slashed expected imports from that country and lack of steel now is being felt in a dozen direc- tions. The motor trade already has had to reduce its 1947 program. British steel exports have been brought down to rock-bottom. Labor disputes have become more numerous and 300,000 more working days were lost during the first nine months of 1946 than in the same period of 1945. But Britain has avoided the dislocation experienced by Canada and the United States through. strikes in basic industries. Manual Wages At Peak Wages of manual workers in the manufacturing industries reached peak levels. The average weekly earnings of all workers now are just over £5 ($20) compared with only £2 13s 3d ($12.65) in 1938--a boost of 89 per cent. Almost 7,000,000 men and women were discharged from the forces or from war production jobs in 15 months but large-scale unemploy.- | ment has been avoided. The most serious feature of the "country's un- employment "pockets" is that they are mostly in the so-called depress- ed areas where unemployment was heaviest between the wars. A threatened revolt. over farm prices by the National Farmers' Union was averted when Prime Minister Attlée's Labor government promised an early review of the price structure to iron out: inequal- ities. Farmers won the concession that their own work and that of their wives will be taken into account in measuring the level of agricultural profits.

PHONE 24918 WALL'S COAL London, Dec. 16--(AP)-- Sources close top Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street expressed a pleased, off-the-record interest today in the possibility of Princess Elizabeth's marrying Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark--but emphasized that persiste.# 1umors of an engagement still were only rumors. Although the rolitical aspects of such a marriage were debated heatedly in left-wing circles, where a strong faction disapproves of the present Greek Royal Family, there was a widespread tendency to 'keep politics out of it" so far as possible and at the same time to play down rince Philip's connection with Greece, Rumors Are Flying... And Seem To Be True 'Bout Princess, Philip Such is the feeling of most Bri- tons for the Royal Family that there would be strong support for the 20- year-old Princess' marrying whom she chose unless the government, whose approval is necessary, or a substantial section of the public re- garded her choice as definitely un- suitable, Britain's upper crusters appear solidly in favor of 25-year-old Philip, and the current outbreak of stories about him in the newspapers could be interpreted, in part, as a campaign to "sell" him to those elements of the population whose distaste for King George II of Greece might affect their feeling for his second cousin, young Philip, Canada==U.N.

"District progress is being made," sald Mr, Bracken before leaving New York. "If international in- spection as to troops and arma- ments should become a reality, as now seems possible, it will be the longest step forward ever taken to- ward the prevention of war." Mr. Coldwell aid the meetings of the assembly this last week "have given us cause for a good deal of optimism." "The long discussions earlier at times seemed discouraging," he add- ed. "The amount of unanimity in the assembly this past week sur- prised, I think, everyone. "The great powers are some dis- tance apart still but they are coming closer together."
