In other centres, too, there are signs that spring has accelerated production, making real those gold- bricks which did a disappearing act, especially from Eastern Canad. ian cities, at the beginning of March. From now until June, officals of the council and of the agriculture department say, production will in- crease. In June, no part of Canada will be without adequte supplies. This is being accomplished even with a noted drop in milk produc- tion and a continued overseas de- mand for Canadian cheese. Milk production had declined three per cent in the first three months of the year. "Perhaps for 'this reason," a dairy official said, "a drop in the price of butter should not be anticipated. In fact, the 21-per_cent freight-rate increase granted railways has made it necessary to add a half-cent to the pound price." In Ottawa there had been rumors that the retail price, now 72 and 73 cents a pound, might be shaved to 67 and 68 cefits by mid-May. Spiking the rumor, the dairy spokesman disclosed that his orga- nization had received reports of but- ter Dblack-marketing during the shortage. . Consumers in unidentified cities had been paying as high as a $1- $1.50 a pound. Mending Course For Brougham This Thursday MRS. T. C.

Clarence is a very influential person around the 'Oshawa Chadburn Squadron. Come in and say hello to my read- ers Calrence. (I do have readers you know). "Hello folks; I'm Clarence. Yes sir, this is the first time you have ever heard from me. I have been around thougth for some time, nigh on to six years. You see I started out with the Oshawa Chadburn Squadron; you might say I'm its oldest member even though no one has ever seen me. I have never been seen because I am a gremlin, That's what I said son, a gremlin. It all started when the chief gremlin heard there was to be an Air Cadet Squadron formed at Oshawa, and he appointed me its official gremlin, We gremlins have been with the R.C.AF. since The beginning of the war and we decided we might as well assign one of our number to each Air Cadet Squadron as it came into existence. Yes, there is a grem- lin in every Air Cadet Squadron across Canada, even though most of the Cadets don't realize it. We are the little imps that make things go wrong, and sometimes, if we feel like it, we make things go right for our squadrons. We are not what you call the spirit of the squadron; but rather we are little fates that mold the history of the various Air Cadet Squadrons. We give the squadrons the breaks, or the bumps. That is our job. Enough of who I .am, and on with business. Joe has persuad- ed me to make my first public ap- pearance and tell you good people the history of the Oshawa Chad- burn Squadron. Today the 0.C.S. is recognized as one of the top squadron in Ontario. This was not always the case.

Since that time there have been 14 acts amending and extend- ing its powers. These culminated in 1931 with the passage of the Statute of Westminster which gave Canada her present status as a great nat. jon and as a part of the common. wealth of nations. Mr. Whitehead recalled incidents in connection with the fall of Lou- isburg and the interception of a British convoy on Laké Ontario by a United States naval force to show that the gallantry which pre- vailed between foes in those days is not to be found in present day warfare. The speaker was introduced by Rotarian Rev. George Telford while the appreciation of the club was voiced by President J. Norval Will- son.

Dr. Nash said that 555,000,000 man-hours a day are spent listen- ing to soap operas which fail to even challenge "the mentality of a seven-year-old moron." One of every seven persons in the United States went to movies night- ly to see pictures which were an in- sult tothe intelligence.
