Food fats and oils, for exam:| Je, were in good supply in the] .§., but short elsewhere--and| foreign customers came in to bid up prices here, On the other hand, pork supplies fell off and prices rose because U.S. farm- ers became discouraged . with low returns and cut production. The department had a some- what. muted note of cheer, Prices should reach their peak this month. or next and then bout| ease somewhat--but not all the way down to last year's levels. Items whose prices increased the most by mid-year included food fats and oils, meats, fresh vegetables and potatoes. Partly offsetting these advances were lower prices for oranges, sugar and coffee..Pork prices in- creased 13 per cent; fresh fruits 22 per cent; fresh vegetables seven per cent; and beef 10 per cent. It is normal for retail prices to go up a little by mid-year. That is a time when supplies are at the lowest level because it is at the tag end of the pre- vious year's production and just ahead of the new harvests. But this year's price increases were above normal. ways of behaving. You must be able to forget yourself enough to possible for you, take a look around at home.

Once 'Good Luck Town' In West Soon May Be Just Memory LANGDON, Alta.. (CP)-- Langdon, the town where no- body died during its first 25 gi existence, is dying itself. stores are disa ce school is closed, its hotel has long been torn down, From 1883 until. 1908 the ex- panding railway point was known a8 a "good luck town." Then a typhoid epidemic struck and the first graves were dug at Langdon, 17 miles southeast of Calgary. Four years later, contempor- ary accounts relate, the Lang- don boom was over. The Model Ford arrived and the day-long tide to Calgary was cut to a matter of minutes. Families be- gan to move away. Langdon's school closed in 1962. A year later, one of the two remaining stores closed. shipments last year to- talled 235,000 bushels, a quarter of what they used to be. By April, the population was 73. R. B. Langdon, sub-contractor the Canadian Pacific Rail- 'was one of two men to turn first sod here in 1882. A later, a CPR. station was ' the town appeared in the 1884 edition of Henderson's Gazette and directory of the northwest. It read: "Langdon--on the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway 819 miles west of Winnipeg, has a telegraph office, mail tri- weekly, railway and express of- fice Calgary. Population: 10." By 1892 many families had moved in, Langdon school dis- trict 220 was set up and the Canadian Agricultural, Coal and Colonization Co, had taken up several thousand acres of land along the CPR line. The first store, Roy Cowen's Bar-X-Bar, opened two years later. A 1910 photograph in the Ken 'W. Taylor collection shows its replacement bearing the sign: "Headquarters for mer- chandise."' But by 1818 Langdon was re- duced to a shell. The typhoid epidemic was followed in 1918 by an influenza epidemic. Houses began to be moved away. By the end of the Second World War, the blacksmith shop and garage. had' closed. Then the hardware store disappeared. up in a boxcar and named r him. e first recorded account of Now there is only @ general store Upper School Marks Monday Grade 13 examination results will be mailed to city high schools Monday, the Depart- ment of Education announced today. The schools in turn will mail them to the students the same day. This year only the honor stu- dents' names will be published in the Times. The Oshawa Board of Educa- tion early this year adopted a policy not. to publish examina- tion results other than those of honor students, Board Chairman Ted Bassett said this recommendation of the principals committee was ap- proved by: the board to avoid lany embarrassment to students. The committee felt the results are a private matter between school and student, said Mr. Bassett. He added that before, wheh all results were published, some istudents who only wrote two or; three Grade 13 exams suffered embarrassment when readers assumed they had failed the re- mainder.
