Population and Taxes
Leaders in every walk of life are stressing the
need for greater population in Canada—end yet
there is strong opposition to any suggestion of
lowering of Canadian Immigration barriers, as it
is contended a large population might become
unwieldly.
Other things than population can be unwieldly
in a country. High taxes and a heavy overhead
are already unwieldly in Canada, and it is appar
ent that something must be done about them.
Otherwise the new era of prosperity of which so
much is heard, will fail to arrive.
Those thousands of miles of railways, high
ways, telegraph, telephone and electric service
lines cost a tremendous amount of money to oper
ate. They could serve thousands of additional
people, and bring in greater revenue without fur
ther extension, if there was more population to
use them. Medical, nursing and educational servi
ces, extending to remote areas, are costly, when
the relatively small number of people served by
them, is taken into consideration.
Many of the freight' cars hauling wheat, half
way across the Continent in each direction, must
return from the seaboard, empty, because Can
adian pocketbooks cannot afford in large numbers,
to buy the things those cars would carry on the
return journey.
The upkeep of space by modern method is ex
pensive. Many owners of large houses, during
late years faced with just such a situation of high
overhead expenses, because of the cost of labour,
equipment, taxes and fuel, have remodelled them
to accommodate more occupants—more people to
contribute to the upkeep of the same roof. It is
doubtful whether there is a single instance of the
change not having been profitable.
Few, if any, alterations would be necessary in
the Canadian structure to accommodate more
occupants. There is pleny of space. An influx of
industrious people to the country might prevent
the exodus of other valuable citizens who find their
country has no need of them at present. They
are in a class with the empty box cars. Allow
more people to take a place in the industry of the
country and share the overhead expenses, tnen
watch the taxes drop.

The following two court cases were
recently concluded following charges
laid under the Farm Products

behalf of the Ontario Department of
Agriculture:At Brockville, Ont, on December

Ont., was found guilty of packing
apples below grade and fined $10
and costs.
At Bancroft, Ont., on December

ALSIKE CLOVER
$50
Mrs. Charles Berry Canterbury
street, was hostess to members of
the W.C.T.U. for their regular
monthly meeting on Wednesday
afternoon. The opening exercises
were conducted by Mrs. Arthur Bell,
evangelistic superintendent, assisted
by Mrs. W. J. Ellery, who led in
prayer. A splendid talk on individual
stocktaking, given by Mrs. Barnes,
was most interesting and thought
provoking, being a timely topic for
the new year. In dealing with the
present pressing problems, the
speaker urged her hearers to seek |
Divine help and strength, advocating j
generosity, a sense of world brother
hood and responsibility, to replace
selfishness, racial intolerance and
lethargy, in an effort towards better
living.
Mrs. F. Walker read a poem,
“Keep a’ Going”, and Mrs. W. Dan
iels gave a reading, "I Wish I was
Somebody Else."
1946 EGG PRODUCTION
Egg production for 1946 is esti
mated at 345 million dozens which
is about 29 million dozens below
1945. This decrease in production,
together with the high domestic
consumption, makes it impossible to
fill completely the present contract
with Britain, says the Current Re
view of Agricultural Conditions in
Canada. Shipments will be about 60
million dozens, which is 23 million
short of the 83 millions called for
in the contract.

-Robert Burns
Nearly two hundred years have passed since
Robert Burns was born on the 25th of January,
1759, but his poetry is still read, his name still
revered by countless numbers of people of all
races and creeds the world over.
Life was not easy for "The Bard”, as Scotsmen
still affectionately refer to him in their toasts. He
was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Work and a meagre subsistence were his early lot,
but the fates had bestowed upon him the restless,
whimsical nature of the Celt, not yet fully disci
plined by the austerity of Calvinism, which
enabled him to seek diversion in the pleasant
realms of fancy.
Burns’ flights of fancy never took him beyond
human comprehension. He never strained the in
tellect. He refreshed it. Even when carrying the
imagination along strange and devious paths, he
would eventually arrive in the clear light, with a
heart warming message. He wrote in rhyme, with
the touch of genius, about the simple things, the
plain people, the ordinary experiences of everyday
life. For that reason, his poetry is not outdated,
' for people and events are fundamentally un
changed to this day.
. In “The' Wind That Shakes the Barley", the
author. James Barke, contributes another to the
long list of books about Bums and his poetry—
with this difference; it is neither a whitewash 007
gossip. It relates the story of a genius meeting
'with misfortune. Misfortune is common in this
world, and is no respecter of persons in its visita
tions. Genius is rare, and its light should be kept
burning.
May the bright lifeht of kindliness, with a sav
ing sense of humor, the feeling of kinship to all
.God’s creatures, ard a delight in all His creations;
may that light which shone forth so brilliantly in
the personality of Robbie Burns, shine on.
The Ladies Aid of St. Paul’s Church held their
regular monthly meeting last week and the elect
ion of officers for the ensuing year resulted as
follows: President, Mrs. Chas. Scoff in; 1st Vice-
President, Mrs. J. E. Boles; 2nd Vice-President,
Mrs. Phillips; Secretary, Miss Agnes Boles, re
elected; Treasurer, Mrs. W. R. Veale, re-elected.
The following ladies were appointed conveners of
the four districts: Mrs. Muir, No. 1; Mrs. Phillips,
No. 2; Mrs. Wm. Brown, No. 3; Mrs. Stevens, No.

Production of alsike clover seed in
Canada in 1946 was 7,712,000
pounds, 2,650,000 less than in 1945,
and was not enough to meet both
domestic and export demands. Can
ada is the chief exporting country of
alsike clover seed this season, when
world requirements exceed supply by
a considerable margin. The poten
tial export demand for this seed
would appear to justify increased
production in 1947.
Mrs. George Armstrong, the presi
dent, presided for the business per
iod, when plans were made for a
visit from the Provincial Field Sec
retary, Mrs. Beth McKay, who is
expected to be in Ingersoll on Jan

A news despatch announces that sixteen mem
bers of the Smith clan are coming to Canada from
Lancashire, to make their fortune here. An ad
vance party of eight, headed by the matriarch,
Mrs. William Smith, of Morecambe, have already
left. Mr. Smith is sajd to be coming too. The
others will follow shortly.
The intention of the above-mentioned matriarch,
is to open a restaurant in Toronto, eventually
building up a chain of restaurants, with a Smith
in charge of each one. She* knows something about
the business, having successfully operated a fish
and chip business for the part six years. She prob
ably decided that if she could do that in England
in spite of *war time restrictions, she ought to be
able to do it in Canada—the land of plenty. Mrs.
Smith must have the Midas touch, for she claims
she could make money anywhere.
More important, she seems to have faith in her
self and in this country. The careers of the Smiths
from Morecambe, will be watched with interest.

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JAN. 23, 1947 Page 3THE STAGNATIONISTS— by —R- J. DeathmanThe great American depression ofthe 30’s will be a lasting subjectfor controversy. The manner of itsadvent was unique. The UnitedStates was sitting on top of theworld. The national income hadreached a new level—$82 billion for1929. Never again would that coun
try witness another depression. It
was an idyllic picture but it faded.
In 1932 the national income dropped
to $40 billion. The economists have
been explaining it ever since, the
end is not yet, there is more, much
more to be explained.

Modern capitalism means more
' production per unit of labor em- •
ployed. With increased production
capital expenditure, as a percentage
of total production, declines. Colin
Clark in his book, “The Conditions
of Economic Progress” puts it this
way:
“Consumption has been rising
relatively to income in Great
Britain, Germany and the United
States . . . The figures of net
investment, in the United King
dom, as a percentage of national
income show a decline from
12.2% in 1907 to 8.1% in 1924.
7.2% in J.929 and 6.9% in 1935."

But the British national income
has continued to increase. Mr. Han
sen must find a better excuse for
the great American collapse. Econ
omic maturity was, for a time, the
theme song, of many an otherwise
sound economist. The view expressed
was that the American economy had
reached a dead-end, it needed gen
erous injections of purchasing power
from the government. This view
spread rapidly. It was rich in popular
appeal. A plea for the spending of
money finds ready response, the
danger of the whole economy seems
distant, it does not impinge on the
average mind.
One of the -iblest contributions to
the literature of the great depress
ion appeared in 1945. It was entitled
“The Bogey of Economic 'Maturity”
and was written by George Ter-
borgh, a distinguished American
Economist. It has since appeared in
a 66 page pamphlet—a clear and
pungent presentation of the case.-
This new apocalypse writes Mr.
Terborgh, has its four horsemen:
(1) The decline of population
growth.
(2) The passing of the fron-
\tier.
(3) The dearth of great new
industries, and
(4) The growing importance
of depreciation reserves.
“It is argued that population
growth generates investment op-

portunities which are lacking in
its absence, hence an economy
with a rapidly expanding popula
tion, should have, other things
being equal, a higher rate of cap-*
itul formation than one which has
attained demographic maturity.”
Other things are seldom equal. The
percentage gain in population is by
no means the sole factor of national
progress. A declining rate of popu
lation growth in Canada and the
United States has not checked our
onward march. 'Per capita production
in both countries made more pro
gress between 1914 and 1939 than in
any other period, but in percentage
increase this was not the period of
greatest population growth.
The second horesman in this apo
calyptic presentation is: “The pass
ing of the frontier”:
“But says Mr. Terborgh, “this
period in the United States was
passed fifty years ago and it
would be rather difficult to attri
bute the depression which took
place in the thirties to something
which had ended at least four
decades before the depression be
gan.”
Is the dearth of great new indus
tries a factor in the depression?
Here Mr. Terborgh brings up an
aspect of the question which though
obvious has received little comment:
“Great new industries," he
writes, “eventually become great
old industries and assert a drag
on the growth of capital forma
tion just as formely it stimulated
it.’
To-day progress is more diffused.
It is no longer one great industry
but many, not one great invention but
numerous inventions. Progress has

REPORT PROGRESS ONNEW POULTRY BREEDSFurther progress is reported onthe work of the Poultry Division,Experimental Farms Service, in thecreation of new breeds of poultry tomeet specific economic requirements.Chief of the breeds in the processof being evolved is what has beencalled the Large White, a breedpossessing: (a) white feathers forease in breeding to a uniform orstandard feather colour requirement
under commercial conditions; (b)
white flesh so that the bird may
attain “Milk-fed" grading in so far
as skin colour is concerned; (c) fast
feathering for ease In plucking and
to speed up the moult; and (d)white eggs for uniformity in mar
keting.
With regard to the attainment of
• this desirable breed, the latest annual
report of the Dominion Minister of
Agriculture states that the I^rge
White, which has been in the process
of synthesis for the past eight years,
now has reached the stage in its de
velopment at which more attention
can be given to body type and shell
colour. So far the work has been
mainly limited to the task of estab-
' lishing purity for skin and feather
colour.
The other two breeds of chickens
now being developed at the Central
Experimental Farm, Ottawa, the
Broad Breasted White and the Small
White have progressed still further
toward the ideal envisaged for them.
The Broad Breasted White is to de
velop largely into a meat type bird,
possessing, however, good egg laying
characteristics. The Small White will!
combine high egg production, stan-1
dark egg size and good body type,
about a pound less in weight than
that of the Leghorn breed.

wider range, has greater breadth,
depth and permanency.
Has there really been a wider re
sort to the use of depreciation re
serves in the financing of modern
business? The answers of Mr. Tre-
borgh is:
"There is no warrant in the
record for the motion that cor
porate business as a whole is
progressing toward financial self-
sufficiency.
“All in all, we have here a
bogey as hollow, and as spurious,
as any in the stagnationist catalog.^, jfj.
Perhaps we may be permitted to
observe that this is no mean com
pliment for a bogey."
The sponsors of the new age have
a passion for spending, nothing else
will ever satisfy them. What a glor
ious dream they have had, a bot
tomless barrel of money to spend and
a firm belief that the more they
spend the richer they will be. What's
Heaven for when men can dream
such dreams on earth? Yet this
peculiar view has its voteries in this
country. The federal government in
general accepts the idea. Mr. Cold-
well once wanted to spend $5,000,-
000,000 in 2 years. He is wiser now,
he has seen it done. Senator Roe
buck, a patrician if there ever was
one, wanted spending so that we
might feel the jingle of the money
in our pockets. That type of money
never jingles, wealth comes from
production—not merely from spend
ing more than we produce. Product
ion now as ever remains the basis of
progress.

/k FRIEND of ours who’s a hunter1 * stopped by not long ago with acouple of birds. From his pocket hepulled a few snapshots. He was dis-,appointed In several. “Didn’t get as’
good pictures as I thought I would,”
he remarked ruefully.
Now he’s a good hunter—with a
gun. When he gets to hunting pic
tures. that’s something else. So I
put it up to him this way.
“If you would take as much care
with your camera as with your shot
gun, you’d get good results. You
wouldn’t think of heading into the
wcods after partridge without cleaning your gun. But when you take aj dure, do you check your camerato be sure the len-s is clean?”
He got the point I added that,like a gun, a camera must be held
steady. Brace a gun against your
shoulder; brace a camera against
your chest or your cheek. And trip
the shutter with a steady pressure
on the release lever, just as you
squeeze a trigger instead of Jerking
“You know enough about birds,” I
went on, “to know that the weather
has something to do with where you
find them. Weather has a lot to do,
too, with the snapshots you take.
You compensate for a cloudy day
by using a longer exposure. And ona bright sunny day, out in the open,use a shorter exposure.”
From there we went on to focus
ing, My friend admitted he uses a
choke on his shotgun; this controlsthe pattern, or spread, of the shotand the effective range. Focusingthe camera does the same trick.Some cameras. In fact, are equippedwith range finders with which to
focus.
All this, he admitted, made sense.It makes sense, too, to advance filmafter each picture just as he reloads
his gt:n. Loaded, either a gun or a j
camera is ready for instant use. i

in various countries, it should be

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY;jJAN.23;J 9 4 7 -..........CHAPTER XIII HARRIETSV1LLEHe looked surprised as sherery carefully removed his armfrom about her shoulders."Don’t be silly, Jimmy. I’mnot in love with you.**“Solly!”"Don't sound so surprised. Youswept me oil my feet, I admit
that We had a tiny part of anevening together and it was wonderful But you left before you
made sure of your success. Leftin time for me, Jimmy. I'm verygrateful”“You, too?” he said bitterly."You, too.’’"Funny, I was going to do thisdifferently. I was going to hook
you and jilt you at the altar. Iwas going to do the same thingthat Dronda did to you. But sud
denly I couldn’t do it. SuddenlyI thought of what Mike wouldthink.”••Mike?” He caught at thename, and laughed. “You mean
you’re in love with Mike? That’s
a hot one.”“Is it, Jimmy?” She seemedto consider, cocking her head andpeeking at him from the corners of her eyes. “Yes, I suppose it is. But there you have
it.”"But — but you wouldn’t give
him a chance!”
“I was afraid to, Jimmy. Yousee, men like you leave scars.And I was still under the spell.
That’s why I quit when I caughtyou kissing Helen. I wanted togets away from you, I wantedto get as far away from you as
I could.”“Yet you tried to save me
when you thought Perkin was go
ing to give me the sack.”
“Sally, don’t you see it? Allthese things you’ve said are anadmission that you still love me.
You wouldn’t be giving yourself
away if you didn’t.”
“That’s the only time a woman can afford to givp herselfaway, Jimmy, my pet. When
she has nothing to lose she can
be very frank.”
Back at the hotel, she foundthe room in utter darkness andwas just a bit surprised. She
had expected Helen and Mike tocome there to talk things over,had expected to be able to getMike off to a place where theycould talk and take up wherethey’d left off in the park. Shewas half undressed when thedoor of the suite swung openand Helen, weaving slightly,
came gaily in.“Hi, Sally old gal. What anevening! How’s Jimmy, goodold Jimmy?”Sally struggled back into herdress, eyes popping. “Helen
Stafford, you’re drunk!”"Two beers, so help me. Maybe I should have eaten some
thing, huh?”“You certainly should have!”Sally finished snapping the fastenings of her dress and caughther just as Helen was on theverge of missing the bed. “Here,
take it easy darling. Good grief,I hope Mike had more sensethan you. We have to fly back,
you know.”
“Didn't touch a drop,” Helensaid with a sniff. “A child.Afraid of mere beer. Hey, isn’tthat poetry?”
“It is childish. Mike isn’t
afraid of anything.”
"Afraid of you.”
"I said that Mike isn’t afraidof anything.”
“But he won’t be afraid of you
any more. We fixed that. Wefixed it good. You may be thefirst to congratulate us. Wc, Miss
Alllston, are going to be mar
ried.”If she had fallen into a swoonshe wouldn't have been in the
least surprised!
Dronda laughed from the door.
Still in the flattering eveninggown, she came tripping in. looking ever so gay, ever so beauti
ful, ever so dashing.
"How cute,” she bubbled."Helen, you and Mike can getmarried when we do. A double
ceremony. Sweet, don’t you
think?”"I do not,” Sally said frostily.“And would you mind leaving us
alone, Miss Moore? Haven’t youdone enough damage for one
evening?”’•Jimmy?” Dronda chuckled.
••Think nothing of it. He asked
for it, he got it.”
"I have a good mind to slapyour face,” announced Helen distinctly. “And you can’t marryBill Burke. You’re already married. My sister told me.”"But divorced, my pet Thedecree became final yesterday.""Mike and I will never be divorced.""Helen, listen to me.”
“Oh, no. Mike told me not tolisten to you. And Mike is nowmy lord and master. We shallbe happy, Mike and I. We understand what hurt is, and disappointment. How did you make
out with darling Jimmy?"
“But you must be joking. Mike
doesn’t love you.”
The red head sniffed. "I amnot joking!”Nor was .she.
Mr. Perkin was at the airportwhen the plane piloted by Captain Mike White arrived from
Buffalo.
"Dronda, dear," murmuredBill Burke, “this is the excellent president of the excellent
Comet Airlines."“Gee, and they’re almost as
to the prettiest one of all, theprettiest and nicest and wonder-fulest girl who ever. . . .”“Do you have to talk somuch?”"From now on I’ll always letyou have the last word."“Good," said Helen. “Come tomy arms, papa.""And I did, too,” laughed Jimmy, looking straight at Mr. Perkin. "Even though she was in
mine, I went into hers."
“Most interesting.”
"And if you hire Jimmy backagain, we’ll name the first babyComet.""Well!” said Mr. Perkin."Well, Jimmy, you come to seeme tomorrow. Of course, I’m notpromising. ...”Jimmy looked at Helen andgrinned. “You bet you’ll havethe last word, darling, now and
always.”His muffled exclamationswung Sally around. “Oh, Mr.
Perkin! How jolly!”“Have you gone mad, Miss Al-
liston? Have you forgotten that
you are in the. uniform of theComet Airlines?"

good as the American Airlines."
"How nice of you to say so,”fluttered flattered Mr. Perkin. "Ido hope you enjoyed the flight”
Mr. Perkin harumphed, thencontinued toward the gate leading out onto the field. Helen
whooped when she saw him, andcame dashing over.“My dear Mr. Perkin, how nice
of you to come to congratulateme!”Mr. Perkin’s watery gray eyes
became grave as Jimmy inflicted his presence upon him. “I amsorry to see you in such bad
company, Miss Stafford. I willforgive you this once.”“Aw, you didn't take my resignation seriously did you, Mr.Perkin? Why, I’d cut my rightarm off up to here for the CometAirlines.”"And good first officers are difficult to come by these days.”Mr. Perkin blinked. "Am I tounderstand that you are applying for your old job, Mr. Kennedy?”“Well, a man with a familyhas to live on something.”“I’m sure Miss Moore is adequately supplied with cash.""But Miss Stafford isn’t.”“Miss Stafford?”
“It happened like this,” saidHelen. . . .Jimmy had not waited for her
to make up her mind to talk tohim. He had growled low underhis breath, picked her up, and
carried her out of the room. Several people looked at them disapprovingly as he carried her into
the suite Mike had been given—also with Dronda's compliments. He ignored her struggles
and sat down with her, cradlingher on his lap."How dare you, Jimmy Ken
nedy! Wait till I tell Mike. He’llbreak your neck.”“I dare anything for the wom
an I love,” he said grandiloquently. “I dare a punch in the nose,a refusal — anything.”
“Love?” She suddenly ceasedstruggling.
“Love," he repeated. “Helen,I’ve been an awful fool. Allthose girls — Sally — Dronda—when you're the only one Icould ever really love.”"And I'm just dopey enoughto believe you, too.”
“You do believe me, don’t you!
I’ll never be perfect. I guess I'llalways be attracted by a prettyface, but 1’1! always come back
“Only until tomorrow, Mr.Perkin, Sally doesn’t work for
you any more, ” she crowed."Sally's gor«*i be a housewife."And that was true.
Mike had been unable to waitfor everyone to leave. He hadcaught her up in his arms themoment he reached her andhadn’t set down again until heran short of breath.“Mike, how dare you!"“Look, you don’t really think
you’re fooling me, do you?""You have no right to kiss me.You’re engaged to marry
Helen.”“Yeah, it worked, didn’t it?You should have seen the expres
sion on Jimmy's face when I toldhim about it. And I also sawthe expression on your face, dar
ling. . . .”“Mike, you can’t love me. Youcan't You know how nasty I can
be. I won’t let you throw yourself away.”“When did you realize you
were in love with me?”“In the park,” she began, thenstopped as eyes rounded. “Oh, Ididn’t mean that. I didn't meanthat at all. I am not in love
with you. Please leave.”
“When we’re married I shallbeat you. ' he said pleasantly.“Every time you lie to me Ishall beat you.”“Mike, I'm not made ofbrass.”"See, you didn’t say no!”You bet she hadn’t, thought
Sally now. Only a fool threwhappiness away, and she was nota fool. A housewife she’d be and
she’d love it."Housewife?” faltered Mr.Perkin, “But surely you can't
mean it. Your place is in aviation. Think of the golden daysthat lie ahead for our industry.”
“A housewife."
"Maybe," drawled Mike, “1
shan’t beat you after all. Seeyou tomorrow, Mr. Perkin?
There’s a little matter of a raise.
After all, the children of CometAirlines employees can’t be permitted to starve!”Mr. Perkin drew himself upstiffly. "I shall be at your disposal, Captain White. May I congratulate you both?”“Cross my heart, Mr. Perkin,
our first baby will be namedComet!”The executive chuckled as,

KEEP BEE COLONIESAT SAME NUMBERNo further expansion of bee colonies was recommended by the 1946Dominion - Provincial AgriculturalConference. With the present number, and the yield equal to the five-year 1940-44 average of 75 poundsper colony the 1947 crop of 40million pounds would be the secondlargest on record. If however yieldsreturn to the pre-war average of 93pounds per colony a record crop of50 million pounds will be harvested
In recommending the present level
of colony numbers for 1947 the
Conference also gave consideration
to the fact that the present almost
unlimited demand for honey was due
in great part to the shortage of
sugar and scarcity of jams, jellies
and syrups.
That demand has been further
strengthened by the rationing regula
tions which permit purchases of four
pounds of honey per coupon com
pared with 24 fluid ounces of jams
and jelly and one pound of sugar.
With the relaxation of sugar ration
ing, a sharp drop in honey consump
tion as well as in price is to be
expected.
The disposing of the Canadian
crop of honey at prices which would
give producers a reasonable return
under conditions of normal sugar
supply is largely a question of dis
tribution and grading. Considerable
attention is at present being given
to that subject by various trade
and government agencies. Many
people who formerly were not users
of honey are now buying consider
able quantities as a result of sugar
rationing. To maintain that demand
in competition with jams, jellies, and
other competitive sweets when
rationing no longer exists will re
quire a marketing system which will
ensure equitable distribution and a
uniform, well-graded product.

That the surface to be painted
should always be dry when applying
fresh coats of paint to the farm
buildings is a golden rule of farmers.
There is, however, one exception.
When cement water paints are to be
used, the cement surface should first
be thoroughly dampened to reduce
surface suction and to harden the
paint. Every cement water paint is
not in that category, so that care
should be taken to follow the manu
facturer’s directions closely before
applying the paint.

in the United States rose 23 per centlast year.Another important observationnoted here is that, whereas pricesare not expected to be boosted inany spectacular manner now, yetthere are hints that price adjustments upwards may be coming shortly as the Federal Government removes subsidies and costa in Canada are influenced by higher pricetrends in other lands, including U.S.PEACE, PARLIAMENT ANDTHE PEOPLEWhile it is true that the thirdsession of the 20th Parliament will
be engaged in considering ways and
means of conducting this nation’s
affairs in peacetime both on the home
front and in foreign affairs, yet al
ready there are hints on Parliament
Hill that the return to pre-war days
for the administration will be much
slower than the man-in-the-street
across Canada would seem to believe
possible. This can be seen in the
legislation planned for this new ses
sion, as reports would indicate, in
cluding the continuation of some
wartime flavoured things like price
and other controls, such as foreign
exchange control rental controls,
etc. Indeed, the wartime tax agree
ments between the Dominion and
Provincial Governments are still very
much in the discussion stage. Like
wise in other directions, there are
constant reminders that the fighting
has ended a long time ago but the
effects are lingering on with the
characteristics being most notewor
thy right now. In short, the man in
the street will find that the new
session will be marked by no sudden,
rapid return to pre-war days, being
a much slower process than generally
anticipated especially in taxation
matters and controls.

Hello Homemakers! What kind of
breakfast should you have? A sub
stantial breakfast or none at all.
This is not a question to be answered
by "now everybody has been fed
and is off for the day, guess I should
go shopping right away.” Nor is the
answer to be found in “I must re
duce."
It has been proven that good
health is maintained by a substantia)
meal at the beginning of the day.
And this is true every day in the
year, summer or winer. Breakfast
should account for at least one-fouth
of the protein and one-fourth of the
vitamins and minerals required daily.
Some people have developed the
habit 'of omitting breakfast in an
effort to lose weight, but that is the
wrong way to reduce. Their energy
would be maintained a a more even
keel if they devided the food they
eat among three meals a day rathet
than two. Planning a well-balanced
diet with three meals a day is not a
difficult task if a few simple prin
ciples are followed. But with.only-
two meals there is a danger of omit
ting some of the important foods
which furnish the much-needed vita
mins, minerals and proteins.
Breakfast can be planned front
five items, namely, fruit, an egg.
cereal or toast, butter or jam and
beverage, which means milk foi
children; During conservation of
wheat products, serve either cereal
or toast, but not both. Even this
economical meal will be well balanced
and hearty.
! In many ways your body is like
the engine in your car. It takes fuel
in the form of food and transforms
it into energy, the energy with which
you accomplish your day’s work. It
is just as reasonable to expect your
car to start on an empty tank as to
Holiday Soup
To leftover soup, add vegetable
stock and 1-3 cup coarsely chopped
nuts. Heat, pour into soup bowls and
top with rice krispies.
Eicalloped Turkey
Make a sauce of 2 tbsps. butter, 3
tbsps. flour, 1 cup milk and 1-2 cup
gravy. Add 1 cup (or more) diced
turkey, 2 chopped hard-cooked eggs,
two tbsps. chopped celery, 1 tbsp,
minced parsely. Pour into shallow
pan and sprinkle with turkey stuff
ing. Bake in electric oven at 350
degs. for 15 minutes.
POSTAGE RATES
It hbs become known in Ottawa
that there is a strong demand for the
return to the pre-war postage rates
in Canada, including 3 cent rate for
ordinary mail, and it is said that an
effort may be made to obtain such a
reduction. At least the proposal is
supported well and favoured by
many people.
BIRTH OF A NATION
The fact that in 1947 there will be
no day of the year when some inter
national diplomatic gathering is not
in session is eloquent recognition of
the inter-dependence of nations,”
said in Ottawa Canada’s Deputy Min
ister of External Affairs, Hon. Les
ter B. Pearson. "Such meetings will
be tiring, expensive in money and
effort, and their results will often
be negative. But they seek to substi
tute co-operation for conflict and
as such they deserve our full support.
As to expense, a few hours of war
cost Canada more than all those 95
conferences held in 1946."
He continued to reveal that Can
ada's External Affairs Department,,
a Department whose importance now
cannot be exaggerated, in 1928 sent
representatives to ten conferences
and 1939 to eighteen, though in
1948 will send to 98. “In this last
year, 128 external affairs officers
were absent from their normal posts,
attending international conferences
as delegates, alternates, advisors or
observers,” he stressed. He also made
known that Canada’s young but en
ergetic Department of External
Affairs has now missions in 22 coun
tries and is committed to opening
of six more. “In 1928, our total staff
at home and abroad was 145," Mr.
Pearson disclosed, “in 1946 it was
671.” The diplomatic staff numbered
20 in 1928. It is now 126 and they
are. I assure you, a hard working
lot"

Horses on farms in Canada as at
June 1, 1946, were 2,396,850. There
has been a steady decline in the
number since 1942. In the first nine
months of 1946 fifteen thousand
head were exported to Poland, six
thousand to France and ten thou
sand to France and ten thou-
and to the United States.
The colored janitor was listening
to an eloquent sermon by the new
pastor. "Do you think he’s as good
as our former minuter?" asked one
of the deacons.
"Ah certainly does, boss. Why dat
man asks de Lord for things dat de
other preacher didn’t even know he
had.”
While emphasizing pressure on
Canadian prices and controls by ex
ternal conditions, especially in the
United States, have influenced the
action of the Canadian Government
in lifting price controls over many
commodities and services now con
sidered in relatively good supply, yet
it is pointed out in Ottawa that this
is only part of a deliberate plan de
signed tp prevent boom or collapse
of prices in this country since the
still controlled list of commodities
and services are largely in such
things as are concerned with the
basic importance in living and pro
duction costs. In short, the controls
are still being retained on those
things which affect the cost-of-living
index “most", as calculated in Ot
tawa, including foods, fuels, textiles
and rents.
Indeed, no spectacular price in
creases are expected from this whole
sale decontrol action recently an
nounced in Ottawa, and there is no
intention of abandoning rental con
trols or eviction • controls, though
these controls will come off much
later, perhaps, many months later,
according to whispers heard now
along Parliament Hill, if at all in
1947.
Then again, many Canadians
seemed to have found the cost-of-
living to be rising at a fairly steady
pace in the past year and this is
confirmed officially because it has
reported in Ottawa that Canada’s
cost of living index increased from
20 per cent above the pre-war level
to 27 per cent in last year, though
there may be some consolation in
the fact that thia cost-of-living index

Very few drivers seem to know
what to do when a car starts skidding
on ice, snow or wet pavement. The
Ontario Highways Department wants-
to remind you of what every exper
ienced driver does instinctively, in
such situations. When your car skids
do as follows: First, turn the front
wheels in direction in which the real
end is slipping; second, t
foot off the accelerator but leave the
clutch engaged; third, pump the
brake pedal down and up gently.
Above all, don’t’ lose your head and
jam on the brakes.
