Junior Farmer News And Views

Winter is generally the time to review the past years’ activities For the Junior Farmers of the county 1947 was a fairly successful one. If for no other reason the harmony and good will that was fostered between the two existing clubs made it worthwhile. The 'Wil- liamstown Pair was a perfect example of co-ordination and proved very profitable to the coffers of 'ooth clubs in i

defeat the Glens 8-6 The win meant a tie for the third place standing between Marcons and Glens who have split their four regular games while bowing each time to Calumets and Massena.

Should they meet in the play-oits which open next week, these two teams undoubtedly will provide some of the most exciting hockey e-ver seen in Glengarry and the series could easily go five games. League moguls are meet ing Sunday to decids on play-off arrangements and there will be a real effort to provide this series.

No matter what the arrangements Alexandria fans wlU see tlieir first play off game Thursday night when Ma- roons play hosts to either Maxville or Massena.

Monday night’s game was fast, hard fought and clean, only three penalties being handed out in 60 minutes of tin filing hockey. Maroons took a quick three goal lead and lead 4-1 at the first whistle but the Glens came roar- ing back to tie the game at 5-5 at the end of the second stanza. Three goals the Glens gave Maroons a very satls- the Gles, gave Maroons a very satis- lying victory.

Alexandria’s kid line of McCallutn Poirier and MePhee was really travelling and they figured in five goals. Dimcan McDonald lead the scorers with three fine goals while McOalliim and MePhee got two apiece and Don- ald McMaster scored one. Assists went to Poirier McCallum and Brunet, two each, MePhee, MacdoneU and Hurtu- bise, one each.

For the Glens, Macintosh scored twice, F. Oulndon, Raymond, Munio and X/>bb, one eacdi. Gutndon and Mun r.o also racked up two assists, while Marleau was credited with one.

Owned by Donald Fielding Amuse- ment Co., the truck collided with Mrs. Hebert on High-way No. 2 about a half mile south of lancaster approximately two weeks ago. She was removed to Hotel Dieu Hospital were she was un- dergoing treatment for a broken hip, fractured pelvis and other cuts and bruises.

Rita Hebert daughter of the injur- ed woman, received minor cuts and bruises in the accident, but was not In- .jured seriously The two women were walking along the highway when the accident occurred.

Mr. King also made it clear that "no cne is thinking of setting up this committee fo rthepu rpose of restricting d'iscussion:.”

Meanwhile, it is learned here that, if any inquiries in any direction, aside from this Committee, should disclose profiteering, there would likely be no delay in starting proper prosecutions violations of existing laws covering not only against individual offenders but also groups. In fact, the necessary legal machinery as well as qualified per- •onnel to carry out such actions or inquiries exist here and these are being kept in readiness for any eventu- alities in the offices of Wartime Pri- ces and Trade Board and the Combines Investigation Bureau, with the remark that whispers heard backstage in this nation’s capital reveal that it is now recognized among officialdom that ciurent conditions may warrant some upward adjustments of prices in a cycle of rising world prices but at the

It is forecast that the present fourth session of the 20th Parliament will be both hectic and lengthy, judging from the heavy program ahead and the tempers of the people’s representatives, Indeed, there seems to be an iriclination to believe that the session may stretch into July before pro- rogation, though the sessional indem- nity should be paid by June 24th and experiences have shown that the HO'Use generally do.s not sit much beyond that time VETERANS COMMITTEE

I The devaluation of the franc by i Fiance has been discussed widely both inside and outside of this capital,

I though it is significant that speeula- ,tions h.'ard in this capllal indicate ,that Canada will not proceed to de- valuate the dollar as rumors have claimed.

1 The reasons behind the drastic action by France are based on the the- ory that Prance has been unable to export as much as that coimtry would like because her export prices were too high so that devaluation would create a stimula'ion cf h:r trade, establishing

jone kind of franc for “home" use and another for “abroad,” even if this might prove rather embarrassing for other countries, .especially the United Kingdom Canada, on the other hand is not suffering from this same econ- cmic malady, It is argued In 'fact only a short time ago a spokesman for the Canadian Government made the follow ing statement in Ottawa:

THE WORK of burying telephone wires or placing them in overhead cable continues year after year. Today, over 4 million miles of telephone wires, 95% of our total, are in cable, safer from storms. Service interruptions caused by weather are fewer, and still our constant aim is to provide even better service.

Not only is our serviçe becoming more dependable, but it’s growing, too. We are filling orders for telephones just as fast as new equipment is available. More telephones plus more dependable service — and always at the lowest possible cost—mean greater telephone value for every user.

and its neat. r‘.'..e case. The British maiuiiacturers also claim the guard acts as a sharpener which automatically keeps the blade in trim for several years. In any case, the rocking razor is another example of how Britain is using technical know-how to solve her economic difficulties.

After the excitement of preparing for our trip to Britain—packing, making sure cur visas and tickets were in order, sight-seeing in New York, inter- views with the press, radio broadcasts and many other activities the Champs and I are happy to relax on board the luxurious liner Queen Mary.

We had a few anxious moments at the Toronto Union station looking for Glen McFaddln’s baggage before we left for New York Glen is the Esso Teactor gold medalist and as we, were preparing to board the train, he reported he couldn’t find his bags We al! scurried around looking for his suit cases. We searched the baggage check doom. We huntsd everyw’here. The conductor called his last “all aboard” and then, at the zero hour, Glen found that his bags had been checked. He dashed through the crowds and up tht- slaii'S while we waited anxiously below. In what seemed an incredibly short time he was back, ths: bags in his hands and he managed to catch the train.

Our day in Toronto had been a busy one. In the morning, the boys and myself were Inlervlewed over the radio; Glen MoPaddin and John Capton over CBO, Aifi'ed Brunlon. Russell Hare and myself over CFRB. We had the noi'mal amount of "mike fright”, I guess, but we were told afterwards that it was a good broadcast and the aud- ience was interested in learning about

(the champion plowmen. I would like to tell you something about them too, who they are, what they did to win this trip, their hobbies and accomplish ments.

The four champion plowmen are two teams and they take part in plowing matches in Workington, Cumberland County, England and County Down in Northern Ireland Alfred Brunton won the gold medal and John Capton the silver medal in the Saiada Trans-At- lantic Class for horse-drawn jointer- plows at the International Plowing Match held at Hemlock Park, Farms near Kingston last October. Glen McFaddin and Russell Hare were the winners in the: Esso Champions Ti'actor Class at the Match.

As champions they were awarded this trip and all their expenses and mine, as coach-manager, are being paid jointly by Imperial Oil Ltd. and the S-alada Tea Company, of Canada Ltd. THE WINNERS AND COACH-MAN- AGER

We have quite a few things in common We are all from Ontario and have been plowing for a numbers of years. Alf Brunton has been to Cal- gary and Banff b'u'r the rpst of us have never travelled outside om- own province. You can imagine then, how excited we are at this chance of seeing the British Isles.

John Capton and Glen McB'addln are the bachelors In the group and we have two singers-Russell Hare and Al- fred Brunton. But let me tell you some thing about each of the men in turn.

ALFRED BRUNTON. the Saiada gold medalist, was born in Arran township, one mile southeast of Tara, on August 12, 1917. He started plowing when he was 14 and has won a number of prizes ai local and international plowing con tests He has also been awarded gold end silver medals at festivals for his singing as a baritone soloist He now farms the original Brunton homestead of 100 acres, rents an additional 50 for pasture, and plans to remain there with his wife and 74-year old lather.

Alf doesn’t think he has any relatives in the Old Country, but his wife whose r.ame was Dalgarno before she was married has relatives in Aberdeen, Scot land. In the excitement of meeting new people and seeing new places Alf would like to visit St Paul’s Cathedral, West minister Abbey and to see some short- horn herds of cattle. He s'all has an important duty, to bring home a sprig of heather for his Scottish wife.

GLEN ALEXANDER MePADDIN, winner of the 1947 Esso Tractor Class gold medal, admits that he is more interested in machinery and mechanic.^ than working with horses. He loves tc "tinker” with things and keeps the machinery on his fai-m in repair. He

I atti-lbutes much of his success at plow ing to his fondness for tinkering and win tell you that there are different ways of setting a plow which can

: niake a vast difterence in the way it ' operates. I Gien Is a first rate plowman and j ha.'- been a farmer all his life as was 'his father before him. He was born in Millbank, Ont., 38' years ago. Man- aging a 250-acre fai-m and looking after 60 head of cattle doesn’t leave' hin.i much time for hobbies. He likes to listen to thq.. National Hockey Broadcasts however, and is an active member of Millbank United Church.

JOHN CAPTON, Jr., who came second in the Saiada event, is the young est of the 1947 champion plowmen. He is the third generation of the Cap ton family to distinguish himself as an outstanding plowman. A member of ihe Cayuga tribe of the Six Na-

j lions Indians he was born at Ohswe- i ken near Brantford, Ont,, on Apr^ 10 11927. He was coached by his uncle. John Capton, Sr, who was provincial champion on more than one occasion He has two younger brothers who hope they will be able to win plowing contests soon. An older brother who was with the RCAP during the WS1-, was killed overseas.

John, who is just 20, began his Irain- jing as a plowman at the age of 13 j an,i has already wen a number of I prizes at inter-county competitions He look a three year industrial course ac !he Brantford Collegiate Institute and IS vice-president of the Six Nations Young People’s Recreation Club. He likes sperts of all kinds but is particul- ly interested In hockey and lacrosse. He has friends in England but the country he is most anxious to visit Is Ireland.

RUSSELL BEAM HARE the Esso Ti-actor silver medalist, has been winning prizes at provincial and international plowing matches since 1928 He was born in Nanticoke, near the town of Jarvis, Ont, on Nov 21. 1904 He owns a 155-acrc farm and has shlp- I.ied some of his pure bred Holst£in.s direc ly to South America.

Russ is pretty much an aU-rounri felicw Besides farming, he takes in a number of .sports .including softball, l'.ock:y and pole vaulting. He loves rnu.sic and while he has never enter- ed a oantest he has done a great deal of choral work. Botli he and his wile .sing in the choh of (Jheapside Bap list church. His wife, the former Helen Bums, is at present convalesc- ing in the Hamilton Sanatorium and Russ ns taking food parcels from some )f the nurses at the hospital to friends in England. The Hare’s have four ebiidren—^Lawrence, Victor, Robert and Phillip

As for me, well, I'm president of the Ontario Plowmen’s sspociation and I am in Britain with the champion plow men as their coach-manager . I was bern in Scarboro township 57 years r.go and have been farming all my lile My wife is the farmer Phylls Violet Baker. I have six children tanging in ages Irom 15 to 33 Dur ing my visit to England I hope to see my uncle, Wm. Kennedy, who lives near Liverpool and my wife’s’ two sisters who are in Manccestea-.

That tells quite a bit about U£ end you’ll understand that we were pretty excited that day in Toronto as we made préparation for our trip. We had lunch at tlie Granite club as guests of cur sponsors, the Saiada Tea Company of Canada and Imperial Oil Ltd Afterwai’ds, we proceeded to the American Consul's office for visas Mrs. Brunton and my wife came down to see us olf. Russ of course had said farewell to his wife in Hamilton. SIGHTSEEING IN NEW YORK . Once the train left the Union station and we were on our way, we soon setthd down for the night. As day- light broke, we found ourselves in a strange but Interesting. country. Ohr sponsors had arranged to show us around New York and we were taken on a most interesting tour of tbe city. One of the most impressive moments was when we faced across New York from the top of the Empire State Building. We were taken up the 102

stories and as ft was a clear day, we could see the whole Island. We next vlslted Radio City and then Rockfel- ler Institute where we had lunch about 1 p.|m. Our table overlooked an ar- tificial open air rink. Here bcgh children and adults can spend pleasant hours skating in the very heart of metropolitan New York.

After lunch, we returned to our hotel where representatives of the Cana- dian press Interviewed the boys and discussed the trip from many angles. That night we had dinner at the Wal- dorf Astoria which as far as we are concerned, upheld Its reputation a.s enr of the world’s firnest hotels. La- ter we saw a musical show “Angel in cl-.e Wings” at the Coronet theatre, a revue which featured a married couple, the Hartmans, in some very funny skits. Tris brought to a close our day in New York which I am sure, evei-y member of the party will remember the rest of his life.

We saUed the next day and by the time you read this we’ll have been in Britain several days. We are anxious to learn if the food situation is really as serious as we hear and to see what British farmers are d-oing to Increase production. We also want to study methods of agriculture and hope to bring back much valuable informa- tion. In the next few articles I’li try to tell you as much as I can about our activities and our impression of conditions in the British Isles.

■«omen will be beating pancake mixture next Tuesday. It will be Shrove Tuesday, 1948. During the 17th cen- tury in England, the day before the lenten period was observed as Pan- cake Day. It is thought that the people wanted to use up what gi’easc, laid and similar forbidden foods they had on hand before Lent.—^Lent being the forty day period of fasting before Easter.

As to whether our ancestors used syrup on pancakes or not I cannot say, but maple syrup is what we In Ontario oensider our specialty. Other substitutes are mock maple sauce oi corn syrup or diced fruit. If waffles or pancakes are served as a breakfast treat, honey or marmalade may be used. As an entree at luncheon, pancakes and sausages go well together.

Are You Asking These Questions About

Saving Electricity? IS IT niu NECESSARY TO SAVE ELECTRICITY?

Yes. Not nearly enough saving is yet being made, especially in the home. Result, for some time past several large industries have had their power supply cut off for lengthy periods in the 24 hours.

IS IT NECESSARY TO SAVE Om AT CERTAIN HOURS? No, it is vital to save at ALL hours. While electricity cannot be stored, water that generates it can be stored. The water storage for the five Hydro plants in the Niagara area is provided by the Great Lakes. This assures a continuous flow of water sufficient to enable these plants to go all out 24 hours a day—still there is not enough power. In 48 other Hydro generating stations throughout Ontario the water supply must be very closely guarded—if too much electricity is demanded one day, the next day’s power supply must suffer. This condition is aggravated by the abnormally low rain fall last Autumn.

MUST HOMES DO m THE SAVING? I

Not by any means. ALL consumers must play their full part. Modified rationing has to some extent reduced the consumption of electricity ! in stores and by other commercial consumers, but still greater voluntary savings are urgently needed.

HOW CAN I SAVE MORE ELEaRICITY? Don’t leave lights burning in unoccupied offices. Turn idling motors off. Use range elements as short a time as possible. Turn off verandah and all other lights when not needed. Use electrically heated water sparingly. Do not use electric heaters or grates.

I The tribesmen of Nlpegosis had this against the long winter for their Conjuror They did not treat him as it had been the custom to treat other elders who could no longer provide for themselves-.

Old Nlpegosis was a wizard still. They had seen wonderful things he had performed—and heaa’d of more. They still regarded him with an inher- ent superstitious awe. The breeds might jeer at him, but the bloods knew mistortune would overtake them if they neglected Nlpegosis.

He had no disciples. He was the last Conjuror of his tribe He was very old and he had little strength xi^ head, projecting from the 'blanket that en- veloped him, was bald and looked like the head of a turtle with its prominent nose, beady, filmy eyes and skin like water-soaked and sun-dried leather. His hand shook as he filled and lit his pipe. After the exertion of putting a chunk in the stove he sat exhausted, trembling.

Old, very old, and very wise. The success of his magic came a great deal from his long knowledge of the ways of men and of Natm-e It is possible that in his trances his subconscious mind worked out various problems and announced prophecies based upon ob- servation long stored, released by the state of swoon, with the vital func- tions very low but the subnormal brain alert.

Many of his predictions had come true, more and more as his y-'ars ad- vanced Magic is the secret of the un- known and, without question, Nlpegosis had ways and means of obtaining knowledge that others could not guess. Add such matters to his own innate wisdom and he produced wizardry.

There were ftw occasions now upon which to practice it, few to witness it, even when the remnants of the tribe made 'White Rock their headquarters in spring, summer and fall But the room was stocked with the parapher- nalia of his. profession, gathered, through scores of years, inherited, some of it.

Skulls of bear and bison painted wltj, various devices, old baskets whose pat- terns were runes. Rattles ,war clubs and tomahawks with which to fight the evil spirits. Medicine drums, carved spears and wands of ceremony, decor- ated with tufts of feathers. Wooden bowls carved in weird designs. Plumed bonnets, masks that represented totem birds and beasts, set with teeth carved Iicm cachalot ivory, eyed with shell sere brought from the Big Salt 'Wfeter to the west. Empty shells of terrapin, antlers, curiously twisted growth ■ of trees, medicine bags, herbs, skins of marten and ermine Mats and blankets A totem pole, carved and painted that reached to the roof — the family tree of Nlpegosis

made him choose 'White Rock for a hid ing place, pi’ovided he could win the wizard’s gratitude or friendship. It was certain that Nlpegosis would not be un grateful, would not care to remain un- ■ der an obligation so long as he was normal, but Will MacLeod wanted something Nlpegosis might well con- sider far too great.
