ONTARIO COUNTY HONORS DUNLOPS Ontario County Council will send a letter of congratulations to the Whitby Dunlops, winners last week-end of the John Ross Robertson Trophy in OHA Sr. "A" hockey. At a meeting of the council in Whitby yester- day, a resolution was passed calling for such a letter to be sent, Reeve William Heron, of Brock Twp., introduced the mo- tion. A suggestion had been made earlier by Reeve Ken- neth Lee of Whitby that the team be recognized for its achievements. Reeve Heron's motion called for a letter of congratulations to the club for the fine manner in which they had won the championship. County of Ontario is justly proud of them," he said, "and wishes them every succes: in the final playoffs." YW Group Sees Film Of Trp cob, Bt Andrews S "Even though in this day and age children can be very aggrav- ating and do not have the respect for their parents they should have," Magistrate F. S' Ebbs told a Pickering Twp. man yes- terday, '"'you must not use ex- cessive physical force." His Wor- ship, presiding in the Whitby po- lice court, placed John Stuart Noble, 45, of Altona road, on sus- pended sentence for striking his 15-year-old daughter with a stick. The daughter, Gail, said she was coming home from school when she saw her father on the veranda of their home. She said he took her by the arm and took Suspended Sentence For Father Who Beats Daughter her to the basement where hel? struck her with a stick, which broke when it struck her. Crown Attorney Alex. C. Hall, QC, said the father, brakeman, was a stern disciplin- arian who apparently struck his daughter becavse she associated with another girl of whom her father disapproved. The stick which was used, he said, was thicker than a hockey stick. In placing accused on suspend- ed sentence for one year, His Worship told Noble he could not use any physical force on his family during that time.

When he entered county council |11 years ago, he said, there were four standing committees. Now, he said, there ar 11 and members sometimes serve on a number of committees. This, he said, is costing the county a lot of money. "It looks like a lot of members have quite a job representing their municipalities." Reeve Cyril Morley, of Picker- ing village, objected and said that "there have been too many per- sonalities in the last few days." Such talk, he said reflects on the integrity of council. "I view such allegations in a serious light. we felt we could accomplish some ends this year," he tinued, "and save the country more than $5000 but our efforts have been discredited and we are being abused. I could willingly with- draw from any or all committees to which I have been named." Reeve Mills pointed out that the CD committee had been nam- ed by the warden at the first of the year and members on it had co-operated in trying to do a good job. Warden Morley Bain said that he was sure that the committee work of the council was well dis- tributed in the council. Reeve MacFadyen said that councillors speaking their minds | "livened up county council and! keeps us on the bit." Reeve Wilson, informed that the by-law was in the form required by the, province and dominion, who pay 75 per cent of CD costs, withdrew his motion. He added that in his remarks he had not meant to insinuate anything. The by-law carried.

Certain facts are known to the committee about Scriven, He was born in Seapatrick, County Down, Ireland, in 1819. He received his BA degree at Trinity College, in school in England for a while. He came to Canada in 1840 and was for a period tutor to a son of Robert Lamport Pengelley, a re- tired naval commander living at Bewdley. He lived in Port Hope in a frame house that still stands at the corner of Thomas and Gif- ford streets. GREAT GENEROSITY He was noted for his works of charity. It was said of him that he would' give the shirt off his back to clothe a less fortunate fellow-creature although he him- self lived sparingly doing odd chores, He is believed to have written his celebrated hymn, which has been sung in over 50 translations, in a moment of great personal sorrow, in 1857, The manuscript was not published for nearly 30 years until after his death by drowning in 1886. He is buried at Bewdley orials have been boii if bo i) at Kitt's Corner, south of Bewd- ley, and in the Memorial Park in Port Hope. WORDS OBSCURED The writing on the Port Hope tablet is' now almost indecipher- able. The tourist promotion com- mittee plans to restore it as a his- toric spot. The suggestion has also been made that a Port Hope in street should be named after one of its best-known citizens, Meanwhile, Fred Barr is busy filling in the blanks in the history of the life of Scriven. He has the enthusiastic support of Mike Wiladyka, deputy-reeve of the town, who is an ardent Scriven admirer.

But the possibility of unfavor- able weather is ever present. An Alberta agricultural official ex- pressed the uncertainty of most farmers when he said "it's crys- tal-ball gazing" to try to forecast now what farmers in Alberta will seed this year. Early disappearance of snow in southern sections of Manitoba posed the treat of soil drifting if normal spring rains are not en- countered, according to a survey by The Canadian Press. However, Manitoba spring seed- ing is expected to start before April 20. This will give many farmers an opportunity for a longer season and beiter crop re- sults, SASKATCHEWAN EARLY Seeding will begin in Saskatch- ewan by mid-April if the weather holds.

Farmers will seed about 18,000,- 000 acres this year. With an early seeding, wheat seeding might in- crease; with a late season, oats, barley and flax acreages will go up. MARITIMES LATER In Nova Scotia, the only prov- ince where the survey showed winter conditions still prevail, ag- ricultural officials had not yet filed reports on seeding. Until recently, the depth of snow in New Brunswick was ad- equate to provide good cover for leguminous crops. Farmers fear continued clear weather might af- tinues to melt. Seeding is expected to start late this year in Quebec around the Gulf of St. Lawrence because large amounts of ice in the Gulf keep the surrounding land tem- perature low. Oats will be a major crop again this year in Quebec with wheat, rye, barley and mixed cereals in that order of importance. Acre- age will be about the same as last Year when 1,600,000 acres were START IN ONTARIO Some Ontario farmers have al- ready taken advantage of the mild spring weather and early potatoes have been planted in Es. sex county. Spring grains also Kent counties. Two newer varieties of oats, Garry and Rodney, and one of barley, Brant, are expected to be grown extensively this year, They are said to be excellent yielders besides being rust-resistant. The usual hay, grain and corn crops will be planted on farms in the Ottawa River Valley, per- haps the best in eastern Ontario. In British Columbia, heavy soil areas were reported still wet but were expected to be in good con- dition for general seeding in mid- April. The early potato crop is largely seeded already, along {with some early vegetables.
