Court land. on tie evening of March 2nd. After a sumptuous repast provided by the Courtland Women's Institute, to over 100 milk producers, the president, Mr. Fred. Yousc, called the meeting to order, and after a few introductory re marks thanked the members for turn ing out in such goodly numbers, and called on Arthur Simmons, who repre sented the association at the annual meeting of the provincial association in Toronto, on Feb 2nd and 3rd. He gave a brief report similar to that which appeared in The New* in the issue of the week of Feb. 5th. The meeting was next addressed by Mr. Plant of Brantford, president of the Ontario Milk and Cream Pro ducers Association. He told us he was a dairyman working 150 acre* of land, and extracting hi* living from the cows, the same as we were. He is of the opinion the farmer is too easily satisfied and too slow to help himself. The responsibility rests with ourselves to better our own conditions. We need more confidence in our industry when we knock our conditions we do not en hance the selling price of our products being made, nor of our land. Mr. Plant believes that the man who is dissatisfied on the land will be the same way in the city if he moves there. Canadian farm products are unequakd anywhere else in the world. Premier Baldwin once said that the farm's greatest asset was her men and women. Dairying is a very important branch of agriculture, hut since we live in an age of keen competition we must have quantity and at least poss ible cost. Mr. Plant said nothing pays like testing. One poor cow will eat the profits of three good ones. It pays to raise our calve* from our best cows rather than buying our cow*. We have a good market opening up in the United States for our surplus dairy products, but we must produce dean that mearTf’"llk: *’ no manufa«turer» can make good butter and cheese from poor milk. We must learn that the manu facturers are not our enemies, but our friends, and we should co-operate with them. Mr. Plant said.that the Dairy Standard Act would ha*e to be chang ed before the 3 5*%-fat standard of buying milk could be changed to 335% as requested by the producers in session at the annual meeting in Toronto. The value of dairy products as a food was never recognized as much before as it is to day. Our pro vincial president said that the mem bership in hi* association had doubled since the death of Mr. Stonchousc. whom he eulogized as an untiring worker for the dairymen. Mr. Plant'* last olea wa* to stick together and have confidence in our business.Professor Dean of the O.A.C. dairy department wa* the next speaker. The Professor told u* that he wa* able to speak to us from the farmer's view ;>omt, as h- owned and operated a dairy farm. He wa* glad to see so many fanner* had hydro in thi* dis trict. because, he said, if any body deserved a luxury it was the farmer*.

Easy Come and Easy Go Kitchener Record: It is announced that the estate of Rudolph Valentino, popular screen idol oi another day. has j shrunk irom near $700,000 to a paltry $287,462. Bills against the estate arc responsible for the disparity in assets. One bill from a London merchant for• 1 clothing amounted to $27,059. while an- ] I other chimed $77JO for bow ties. The other day in New York there was filed in the courts a record of the ' “estate oi Marceline Orbit." Marceline was a great clown who once held a , place in the world oi laughter second. j only to Charlie Chaplin. He made a ' great fortune. Then he began to grow] older and finally disappeared from the, | picture. They found him dead—a sui- • cide. His estate consisted of $640 in , a dime savings bank and a broken dol-. iar watch.

Electrical Farms I A forward-looking movement re- ■ ported from Winnipeg is that to establish in the province of Manitoba' a dozen electrical test farms. The test, is sponsored by representatives of power, agricultural and manufacturing' interests, and will probably be aided by a general committee headed by D. L. McLean, deputy minister oi public works. I The idea is to foster, through practi cal demonstrations, the extension of electricity fo the farms of the province, in order that agriculture may share the benefits which industry and urban life have received from this potent force for economic and social improvement. Farm electrification has already made considerable headway in Ontario and in the United States, through the co-operation of interests similar to those behind the Manitoba movement. That it will spread rapidly in all sec tions where conditions arc in any way favorable for its adoption can not be doubted.—Barrie Examiner. The Fate of the Bombastic ’’Kansas Grows the Best .Wheat in the World” is a slogan that folks out in that State see wherever they turn. In 1923 the words were placed on tags of the State motion-picture censors.

The State Attorney- General says the slogan never should have been placed on a tag.

The following amusing reference to George Bernard Shaw appeared in a recent issue of The Toronto Telegram: "George Bernard Shaw was recently quoted in support of the campaign I against corporal punishment. George Bernard's most amusing characteristic is his baffling inconsistency. Jerome K. Jerome, in his helightful autobio- graphical books tells of an incident , where Shaw and Israel Zangwill were (out for a walk. They noticed a couple | of young lads in a field torturing a small animal of some kind. Shaw grasped his stout walking cane, vaulted • the fence and pursued the fleeing t youngsters, vowing condign punish ment. ’I thought you did not believe |in corporal punishment?" was Zang-, will’s sly remark when Shaw returned all out of breath.

"Let them bear the yoke of their youth. Our weakest point is the lack of family religion. I have had many opportuni ties of watching it and of making ob servations. We arc rearing a genera tion which doesn't even know how to consult the Bible.” Mr. Grant told the parents present that they need not worry over their children going out into the world if they were firmly en trenched in their religion as tat«ht at the family altar. They would find their way.

I want to report, dearly and con- e cisely as 1 can. something of what was seen and heard at the Toronto conven tion to which you sent me as your dele- Eate. the convention of Zhe Prohibition 'nion. This union, as you know, is an organ ized getting together, through their n i representatives, of all those lodges, d •ocieties and churches which stand tour-square for prohibition Avoiding all unecessary detail then, let me say simply that it was a goodly gathering of men and women, young I ind old. of ahno>t all religious denom inations and political shades from far "jaw-ay north, from Windsor in the cx- ' 11rente west and irom Ottawa in the ex- -11 rente east. f i And these men and women, differing iin many ways, differing sometimes ejen ’ j in modes of ' prohibition procedure, .were one. absolutely one in their pur- pose oi ultimately winning out to pro vincial prohibition. , One outstanding characteristic ot the » convention was its effort to be fair, fair { even to those who differed most widely I [ irom the convention both in ultimate . aim and everyday effort We all tell 1, ow easy it would be to denounce, en- -■gendering bitterness by bitterness, r I But we knew. too. how futile any such t policy would be. So lense as at time* (was the feeling, a fine spirit of fair play was ever in evidence. This showed especially in any refer- . encc to the Liquor Control Act. We felt that-many had quite conscientious- ■,ly vested for that measure: and however mistaken in judgment they might have i I been, it was realized, that no bitter ' branding of them as being false to tern- ', pcrance principles wool mend matters. This Liquor Act is yet on trial: and : though enough, and more than enough is known to justify the fears of those who oppo-ed it from the first, it was ‘judged wise to wa’k warily, that no oc casion of alienation l<e given to those who are already regretting their action. For there is no question of the growing prohibition sentiment, judged by the ice.ir.g of those who from wide areas reported the result of the Act a> they •aw its working. Whilst, though, there was this fine fairplay feeling that sought not un necessarily to wound any in the house I oi their friends, there could be m> mis-' taking the prevalent jealous feeling oi a possibly too great patience, mistaking' .the steady unswerving purpose cease-, /essly to seek, with all due deference to] others, the utter prohibition of the' liquor traffic, root and branch. Here [was where two speakers from across 'the border counted for much in the |Thursday night's mass meeting. j And now. jealous as I ain oi every moment of my time tonight. I cannot omit brief mention, in this connection, of the musical part of the program. There is always a danger lest un essential matter be introduced into these programs. A man who has gone a hundred miles or more to hear some presentation of the prohibition situ ation is impatient of efforts to merely amuse or entertain him. But here was no frothy or spectacular efforts at such. It was Ye Olde Time Village Quartette. And. dressed becomingly as old time i folk, they gave us the old time songs, every word clearly enunciated, the sen timent setting fine background on which the badness and blackness of the liquor business showed up. and the fine spirit of the whole sending one away to better fightin- of the blighting evil. The first speaker was Miss Stoddard, executive secretary of the Scientific Temperance Federation. Boston. Mass. She emphasized the findings of science, of medical science especially, on the use oi alcohol. Here and there some belated medical man. some materialistic lawyer, like Darrow, even some fairly | well-known scientific man. may be pressed into the service of liouor. but they are few and far between. And they arc growing less. There is no get ting past the findings of the best- known leaders in biological investiga tion today. And these findings arc that alcohol is no life-giver but a |>oison—a real racial poison: that it is not even a stimulant but a narcotic, its apparent stimulation being evidence only of the deadening of certain controlling nerve centres. In this connection I wish it were possible for all the boys and girls of our schools to see certain moving pictures loaned the convention by the Kellogs of Battle Creek Sanatorium. These showed so ungainsayably the effect of alcohol on lungs, heart and brain. They showed, too, how the healthy corpuscles of our blood which, like efficient policemen or live alert scavengers, go ayer the disease germs within, under the influence of alcohol, become themselves diseased—helpless and inefficient as drunken men. One picture especially would arrest all younk folks. Into a gold fish vase or apuarium was poured a little 4.4 alco holic mixture. For a moment or two there was no perceptible effect. Sud denly you saw the fish drinking greed ily; then he got excited, and still more excited, dashing about, up, down, back and fore, striking his head now on this side now on that side of the glass. One could not help smiling, even as one smiles at the antic* of a drunken man; for the fish was literally on a spree. Then he got sluggish, fell down, rose and fell in helpless stupor as the drunken do, then he settled on his side, dead—a thing, a few moments before of such life and beauty, fit now only to be flung away as refuse. Il was the ghastly end of drink. This was the side of alcoholism which Miss Stoddard em phasized in her effective address. It was no merely emotional appeal, with stories of the drunkard's ragged and barefoot children; though these are still in plenty. It was insistence on the nature of the deadly drug, its abso lutely sure physical, mental and moral ill effect, its effect not only in its ulti mate outcome in the death of some drunkard, but its anti-social effect, its prejudicial personal effect whenever and wherever taken, be it in never so small quantities. The day's demand is for youth at its best, at its best in busi ness. in sport and in service. No drink ing man is or can be a: Lis best. Get youth to see. as they arc getting them to see on the other side, get youth to see that the use of alcohol in ever so small quantities means handicap, rele gate* a fellow to the second, third or no class at aB. a fellow who ought to b< first class; get them to see that up-to- date ambitious manhood is ruling ou1 all belief in alcoholic beverage as indicative of old fogeyism and you have gone far in helping them find their fee. in slippery places and to laugh to scon the bartender's temptation. This is out problem, the problem of letting light in on the liquor traffic ai a purveyor, riot of joy-engendering, life uplifting. prog- rest-forwarding bqtud, but of a deadly drug darkening l.fe’a outlook every where. And the future is wholly and altogether with us in thia educative purpose and program. And Io this end I would like to commend a little 15c booklet, entitled "Alcohol and Life.” a booklet gotten out by the department 1 of evangelism and social service. f With such educative program must be pu.bed to the limit the principle of • prohibition; not prohibition only of the i retail sale of liouor but of its manufac- • lure and exportation. Here is where • the other speaker at the great mass i meeting proved helpful. It was Dr. Chcrrington. secretary of the World's- League Against Alcoholism. That too. r the mere fact that there is such World’s . League Against Alcohol, is worth ! noting. Indeed, there is no: only a vountary world-girdling league against . akohohsm; but though he did not r mention this at alt the eyes of great t leaders among civilized peoples cvery- - where arc so opened to the essential r evil of the trafhc that it has become a ■ question with which the League of Na- • tions itself is grappling. Now from the very nature of his I [work, few men can know more of the ‘ ■ question of altoholism than Dr. Cher- ' rington; few can know.tiore especially ’ of the prohibition aspect oi tne ques- • tion as worked out in the States today Out then of bis wide experience and rj amazing knowledge of the situatior r over there, after confirming all that Miss Stivddard had said, he hammered ’ home, with tremendous punch, the con- 1 viclion that prohibition was a success ■ | and was there to stay. Wet propa- ■! ganda, he avsured us. was lauding, ovci 1! there, the tremendous success oi gov- ‘ ernment control in Canada; just as among ourselves, that same wet propa ganda is condemning, through almost , all our press, prohibition in the States ' .insisting on it* failure and promising its ' j sure repeal. One reads so much of this in apparently independent press inser- ■ lions that one at times does doubt the effective progress of the prohibitory movement, however convinced he be of ■ its inherent ethical integrity. Chcrring- 1 ton reminded us of what as matter oi 1 fact, comparatively few of us know. ’ viz., that, whereas every uUsr of the nineteen amendments thus far gotten into their constitution was opposed, most ot them bitterly opposed and .barely carried through, their prohibi tion Act or Eighteenth Amendment alone went through with flying colors almost unopposed. And now. tar irmn l*cing in any danger of repeal, that, of ‘all these amendments, is likeliest to stand. It is almost indeed a psycho- logical impossibility for it ever to be re pealed—especially in the light oi today of the steadily unveiling ot the biolog- . ical effect and the economic handicap oi the traffic in alcoholic beverages. There are some pretty wet centres in line States; and almost unlimited is the pwer of wet money there in many ways. Now. after year* of ceaseless, and one is tempted to say conscience less work, they have secured some three or four local victories in certain states: but to jiring about the repeal oi prohibition they would have to secure the carrying of repeal in. I believe, if 1 caught his meaning correctly, both houses of every State in the Union, be sides carrying it in both federal houses. But that, far as any man can see. is next to impoftible in so many deliber ative- assembbe*,—especially unlikely, as I said, in these days of the unveiling of the nature of alcohol and it* indi vidual. social and economic effect. He gave an illustration of the strength of the prohibitory sentiment there, in spite of all we hear to the contrary—of all they bring us to the contrary whose feet find their Way to liquor's location whereever they are. those whose appe tites would urge them to leave heaven itself t« seek liquor in hetL And that prohibition sentiment in countless case* overrides all political leanings. He told of a rock-ribbed Republican in one of the Southern states who had declared again and again that if hi* party put a jellow dog in the field he would vote for that dog. Weil, by and by. the party put a wet in the field: and. to the amazement of all and sundry, this red hot Republican took the field against him. Heckled at one of hi* meetings, he was reminded of hi* oft aticrted allegiance, and asked if he had not again and again sworn that he would vote for a yellow dog should hi* party nominate such. “Sure." he replied, “sure I have again and again sworn that I would vote for a yellow dog if my party nominated such: but here and now.” he went on. “I give all clear ly to understand, that lower than that I will not go!" Out oi the convention, then. 1 bring you this word: • There is clear recognition of the dif ficulties ahead, of the long hard row there is to hoc. There i* a desire to play fair with all. even with those who oppose our policy at every turn. There is desire even to give the Liquor Con trol Act a chance to justify itself if it can. desire to do this, that is. far as men conscientiously can stand by and witness what we are sure is the havoc it is working. The wet* have a great advantage over us here. They could break the O. T. A. to discredit it. We are not lawbreakers. But neither are we lying down. Our hands are itching to wield the weapons of the ballot at another plebiscite or election. In the meantime we must burnish the weapqns by edu cation of the electorate.. This one thing is clear above all else. We. masse* of the Christian and prohibition forces of Ontario, refuve willingly to be liquor-sellers to thirsty souls irom the south, refuse Hill more to be bar tenders to the growing youth of our land.This liquor traffic we have decided is evil, only and altogether evil. It is tangled up too, against our judgment, with politics, 'its further danger also i* that of invested money on the pub lic's part in those brewery stocks which bring great dividends. But against all this we pit ourselves under God. being sure of his leadership in the great cam paign. It is useless talking of the temper ance trend of the present legislation. Brazenly the brewers flaunt their prof its in our faces. Fancy over seventeen and a half million dollars spent in our own province for liquor in five months! How could any man shut hi* eye* to what this signifies? It is contemptible treachery of a neighboring people who are seeking to put into effect their own prohibitory law. “Whatsoever a man soweth that shall he also reap." Any people conspiring against the law of a neighboring people must soon or law breed lawlessness within their own bor ders. For the sake of this neighborly "ational or international relationship, hen; thill more for the sake of our >wn lads on every hand, we pledge our- •elvet to sit not still till absolute prohi bition o fthe manufacture, sale, impor tation and exportation of alcohol for ’leverage purposes has been attained.

A. juniors, in an exhibition game here last night with the local inter mediates. were defeated 7 to 3. The visitors displayed splendid form and on their general conduct won the admira tion of the spectators. They arc one of the best balanced junior aggre gations seen here for some time, and as the majority of them have two years ahead of them for the junior ranks, they should be heard from in the hunt for the title. Despite the fact that they have been idle since they were eliminated from the O. H. A. race, the intermediate* displayed good form especially Filmorc Beemer on the defence and Moore on the firing line of the visitors. Cowci on the wing showed speed and stick handling ability. The *core at the end of the first period was 3 to 2 for Ingersoll. In the second stanza each team scored mak ing the total 4 3 for the homesters, in the final session which produced the O. H. A. race the intermediates blanked, while the locals added three more to their count.Ingersoll — Goal, Noe; defense, Beemer and Filmore; centre, Barrett; wings, W. Noe and Moore Tillsonburg—Goal, Somers; defense, Haney and Corbett; centre, I Hicks; wings, J. Cowell and D. Anderson; »ub*., M. Andrew* and G. Cro**eL Referee—D. Hicks, Tillsonburg.

Be especially compassionate to those who mourn the loss of loved ones. Keep us faithful, that *Uien life’s pilgrimage shall cease. Thou mayest bring us safe ly jo everlasting life, through Christ, our Lord. Amen." SCRIPTURE John 19: 19-27. MEDITATION John 19 : 26-27: "He saith unto His mother. Woman, behold thy son! Then saith he to the disciples. Behold thy mother!" There are two prom inent thought* suggested by this third utterance of Jesu* from the cross. The first one is the supreme unselfishness of Jesus which led him to consider-the welfare of another while in the niidat of agonizing suffering himself. Thi* example of Jesus teaches us that our own suffering may not be made an ex cuse for indifference to the welfare of others. There is a real danger that suf fering may make us self-centred. He who arose so far above sell as to place first in His thought the need of His mother, can give u* strength to resist the natural inclination to ignore the needs of others when we are in need ourselves. The second thought con cerns the trust that Jesu* reposed in John. John had shown himself worthy of that trust by standing beside the cross of Jesus when the other disciples had fled. The most trustworthy of Jesus’ disciples are those who stand nearest to the cross. What a wonder ful reward came to John for this faith- the study of the chapter, which wa* mo*t interesting, especially after the novel introduction. During the eve ning the two little girls who assisted in the program were presented by Mrs. Rush with story book* of Mis sionary land*. We have received a nunibex. of re quests for another song service of old- time hymn*. This will be held next Sunday night. The Rev. R. D.

During the morning she had been visiting at th home of a neighbor, Frank Fidlius, : and had left about 1130 o'clock. „ Apples which* she had prepared and placed on the stove were burned to a crisp, which led to the belief that she It is an accepted fact that milk is the most valuable article, of diet we possess. Because there is no other article of diet that can take it* place, t may be called without any exaggera tion. an essential food.Milk is food. Milk h a complete food. Milk contains all the sustances needed for building up bone and Ek in growing children, and re- ig the worn-out tissues in adults. It is wrong to think of -milk as a sort of accessory to be used in tea or coffee, or on foods, or merely as a beverage for children. Milk is an economical complete food. Milk and milk products should be part of the diet of every one, young and old, but particularly of growing children. Every child needs al least one pint of milk a day in order that he may accumulate sufficient of the material* for building up a strong, healthy body. No other food can be given the child which will supply, in such quantity or quality. these necessary building materials. There is no difference of opinion, amongst those who have studied the question of diet, on the subject that milk and milk products are most valu able foods and should be used by everybody. If children are to grow into adult life with strong, healthy bodies, they must drink milk during their years of growth.
