In a very optimistic vein he described how he enjoyed seeing the whole area from south of Earltown School dotted with the yard lights of the farm members who were enjoying the benefits of rural electrification.
Ted Quaschnick and Mrs. Freda Pregitzer were appointed a committee to make arrangements to have' Canadian Utilities, the '. Hand Hills Assoc., and Sullivan Lake School Division install lights in Earltown School.
Reports on the membership drive were most encouraging. The president reported that as about ten days previous the membership then recorded for the whole province had reached the amazing figure of well over 60,000. The highest membership ever recorded in Alberta previously was with the United Farmers of Alberta in 1981 when the figure waa 37,000. It was also reported that the local canvass in the north was completed, leaving some small areas in the south still to be done. Total local membership now so far amounted to 47 which everyone regarded as most encouraging. It is estimated that eventually local membership will be 65 or 70.
A resolution to the Provincial Government was passed asking for an increase in the payload allowable oa half, three-quarter and one ton single tired farm trucks.
The next meeting will be held a-bout the middle of March when it is anticipated Mr. Doug Thornton, publicity manager for the UFA Central Co-op will show pictures and give a full outline of U.F.A. Co-operative Farin Supplies. Mr. Robert Rowden, secretary for the past two years found it impossible to continue in the position owing to the pressure of farm work and the position waa filled with the appointment of Mrs Nettie Quaschnick.

HammerirV Hank Speaks Up MAYOR HENRY VEINER of Medicine Hat, has
gained the admiration of a lot of people for the manner in which he speaks up and calls a "spade a spade." Recently he drew much attention with reference to Civil Defence, and his remarks echo the way many people are thinking.
Mayor Veiner last Tuesday denied he was speaking in the name of the Union of Alberta Municipalities against civil defence organizations
of Canada, in a recent letter to Mayor Drapeau of Montreal. "But I do know I am speaking for •riany municipalities of Alberta and Canada when I say that, if Civil Defence is necessary, we should be training young men in this organization and not giving "cushy" jobs to old and retired military personnel, many of whom draw down good pensions."
Another Kind of Battle MEN AND WOMEN who a few short years ago,
donned the uniform of their country and answered the call to the colors in defence of their homeland and countrymen, are now waging another form of war. We refer to the Canadian Legion across Canada, who during this month are conducting their annual campaign to raise funds for the comhiitting of polio.
Undertaken last year for the first time on behalf of the Canadian Foundation for Poliomyelitis, the campaign was entirely successful. According to a Legion spokesman, Alberta is now beginning to feel the full effects of the serious
polio outbreak last year and the year before. He said the patients are recovering to the point where they can be discharged from accredited polio hospitals where they can obtain physiotherapy treatments, financial assistance and aid in rehabilitating themselves.
The magnificent results in polio treatment would not be possible without the financial assistance such as that sought by the Canadian Legion. Here is an opportunity for all of us to join with the Canadian Legion in fighting a tough but we are sure, a winning battle, in the interest of our fellow man. Will you be in the ranks.
Parent-Teacher Understanding PARENT - TEACHER consultations pertaining to
pupils in the public school in Hanno, are fast achieving the aims they were meant for better parent-teacher understanding, and a fuller insight into the pupil's attainments in the classroom.
It is interesting to hear the comments of the parents, who having received Johnny's report card, they themselves off to an appointment with Johnny's teacher. Many of the parents are taking a rrapst active interest in the progress their
children are making at school, which is without doubt an encouragement to the teachers.
In the past too much responsibility has been placed upon the teachers, in order for a pupil to make a creditable classroom mark! Parents too, must give their time and co-operation in educational development outside the school. Parent-teacher consultations will, we believe, eventually result in higher academic standings for the pupils, and a much better relationship between teacher and parent.
It is a good thing to know when you are right. But it is not always wise to insist on exercising that right. There is probably no place where such a maxim has more validity than on the highway, and in its helpful book called "Sportsmanlike Driving," the American Automobile Association of Washington, D.C. cites the following verse: "Here lies the body of Julian Gray Who died while taking the right-of-
way. He was right—dead right — as he
sped along, But he's just as dead as if he'd been
wrong." When the Ford motor company ob
served its 50th anniversary last year most of us become more than ever aware of the Important place which the motor vehicle occupies in our modern living, and some of us were aware, also, of the great misuse to which we have put this mechanical device. Although the engineers have made the automobile more efficient and easier to handle, the irony of our way of life is the splendid highways of this continent are crowded with cars having 2Q0 horses under the hood and a driver with rocks in his head.
Even as far back as 1895 the automobile was establishing its role as both benefactor and killer. At that time there were just two horseless

The Town Annual Meeting NEXT MONDAY IS the date for the annual town
meeting. For more years than we care to remember it has been a meeting that fails for the public. Perhaps one reason is that the "city fathers" are not paid very much, if anything for the offices they hold and the good work they do. Could be that the public looks at it this way: "they (the councillors and Mayor) aren't getting much out of their jobs by way of cash, therefore why worry about it." On the other hand, we presume if the civic authorities were drawing down big pay, the public would be decidedly interested in seeing what kind .of a job they were doing for their money. •~fr- \
This might be; one theory, but the main reason for poor public attendance is that ratepayers

IT IS MOST unfortunate that some immigrants into Alberta and Canada have found this
country far from the glowing picture they first visualized when they packed up their belongings and set out from Europe. In some respects these men and women cannot be blamed for their impressions before arriving here. For many of them they were leaving behind forever a land torn by war and internal strife. Here in Canada was their opportunity to start life anew.
We feel sympathetic towards them, if their illusions and high hopes of life in this country have been dashed to pieces. Recently in Calgary a number ot immigrants staged a march on the immigration offices to complain that they had been brought to this country by false promises and misrepresentations.
Unfortunately for these people they didn't size up the problem as it concerned themselves. They thought that the country who allowed them within its borders would look after them. This is
The "Land Of Promise" an old story, one that harks back to the early pioneer days, when people came into this country entirely unfit to cope with the hard work and initiative that it took to survive. Many thousands were totally misfits and in baseball parlance hard "two strikes" on them before they started to make a mark for-themselves.
Canada is certainly in need of more population, but we. require the type of people who will knuckle down to work at any job they can find until they get to "know their way around." They, too, must realize that Canada is no Utopia by any means. Hard work and initiative in large quantities are what made the pioneers of yesterday the success they are now. Canada is a land of plenty., opportunity and a free land in which to live, These facts are something new Cdnad-ians will have to "leom for themselves, even though in many cases it may be a difficult lesson.
Other E D I T O R S
-—Say: ALL HOPE NOT LOST . . .
(From the Peterborough Examiner) To those gloomy people who stoutly main
tain that the world is beyond all help we would like to quote a remark we have just come across by Sir Winston Churchill. ".An admitted inability to do everything ot once is not a valid excuse for doing nothing."
* "tt * THE MARCH OF DIMES . . .
(From the St. Thomas Times-Journal), It was the late President Franklin D. Roose
velt who popularized the March of Dimes on behalf of poliomyelitis, he himself -having been a victim of that disease when he was well up in years. Canada also has its March of Dimes, each province sponsoring its own fund, and this year, the objective for Ontario, which concludes on the last day of this month, amounts to $350,000. Toronto alone is expected to give $150,000 of the total.
The subscriptions to the March of Dimes has the Ontario Foundation somewhat puzzled. Last year, British Columbia, with a population of 392,-480 at the 1951 census, contributed nearly $300 000, whereas Ontario with a population of 2,527-292 a t that same date contributed only $104,000. If the people of Ontario had given ih the same
- ratio as British Columbia, the Toronto quota alone would have been more than six times the contribution of all the western provinces.
Polio is a serious a problem in Eastern Canada as it is In the West, and it is to be hoped that Ontario will give more generously this month to the Ontario Chapter of the Canadian Foundation for Poliomyelitis, the head off ice of which is 34 Grosvenor street, Toronto.

FROM "TO A MOUSE" "Thou saw the fields laid bare an' waste An' weary winter comm' fast. An' cone here, beneath the blast, Thou thought to dwell, Till, crash the cruel coulter past Out thro' thy cell.
That wee bit heap o' leaves an' stibble Has cost thee many a weary nibble iVotc thou's turned out, for a' thy trouble. But house or hauld, To thole the winter's sleety dribble An' cranreuch cauld.
But, Mousie, thou art no thy Ume ln proving, foresight to be vain; The best laid schemes o' mice and men Gang aft agley, An' leave us nought but grief an' pain. For promised joy.

picture' back ye?;' but even If I turn ed out to be a flop as a camera man, and my wife a dud of a producer, we gained a lot.
From here on in well spend less time gawking at TV, dulling our senses with the monotonous bill-of fare that medium is dishing out to the public under the guise of culture. We'll seldom spend the time, money and effort required to get downtown for a floor show. We've a piano at home, and we'll gather round it with) the youngsters; well make more movies, we'll play games, and we'll make our own fun.
Looking back over 1954, I realize that my wife and I have been guilty of the common sin of this generation. We've let others entertain us. We've tried to buy our fun. Professional hockey, professional dancing, government radio and government television . . . the whole shebang preformed for us while we merely sat and watched.
This is a national curse. Canadians are in danger of becoming passive spectators in sports, entertainment, and government. We do practically nothing for ourselves any more; we want everything done for us. We've forgotten that when you give any group to do things for you, you also give them the power to do things to you.
It's going to be different around our house in 1955. Dad, Mom and the youngsters are going to handle their own entertainment. Why don't you try it, too?
carriages in the state of Ohio. Yet these two automobiles managed to get themselves involved in an accci-dent, and a man was killed. The pattern was set and has remained the same ever since.
We have come to dread holidays and long weekends, with their inevitable toll of lives. Severe penalties do not seem to change the situation a great deal, and the traffic engineers have already outdistanced the motorist's respect for the automobile and the people who are its potential victims.
Canada issues about 4,000,000 op erator licenses every year, and in Ontario—one province alone — there were 65,866 recorded highway accidents in 1953, in which 16,639 persons were injured and 1082 killed. In the United States (where there is an automobile for every four people, and 250,000 gas stations to service them) one million people have been killed in traffic accidents since the automobile first came into being. Forty million have been injured.
Something must be done about it, indeed. And it is encouraging to see that the small group of people who have been pounding at "the doors of the courts and the schools have finally convinced important factions of the public that the rate of traffic accidents can be drastically reduced; by teaching drivers and potential drivers not only the rudiments of what makes the car go, but also the art of following the rules of the road with courtesy. . Legislation to teach people to drive before they get their licenses—and at government expense-has been exceedingly slow; but more thought leaders of the country have come to regard an untrained driver in a powerful car as simply an accident going someplace to happen.
It is diffcult to convince the old-timers, who have been driving by the seat of their pants for years, that one can learn to operate a motor vehicle by sitting in a classroom and reading a book. But there are three remarkable books currently in circulation which were written expressly for that purpose.
"Sportsmanlike Driving" is one of them, and in Saint John, N.B., for instance, a course using this text is conducted in the vocational school for which curriculum credit is given. Adults may take the same intruction in evening classes, and are also checked out in dual-controlled cars before licenses are recommended. In the U.S. about 6,000 of tbe country's 25,000 high schools are Offering such training at a cost of $30 a student. liliiiOMi rail I Illsfi 0h*o|ii are up to 50 pel- cent fewer accidents and violations among trained drivers then •among comparable groups of untrained drivers.
The second book is "Highway Safety and Driver Education" by Leon Brody and Herbert J. Stack (Prentice Hall). It is a text for use in universities. A third book is "Man and the Motor Car," prepared by the Center of Safety Education at New York University, of which Dr. Stack is director. Not only is it an entertaining book, but it is one which every automobile driver should be made to read. There are some times when the

Had my hair cut in a certain town by a barber who once served time in a big prison farm for popping a hotel clerk on the nose.
This man (let's call him Joe Sivad, a fictitious name) was sentenced to 15 days hard labor for assault. But he actually served only 11 days—and during that time he put on 10 pounds in weight. It's the truth, he swears.
"I do more work in a day here than I did in my whole time in jail," he says.
"There was a guard went out with a bunch of prisoners, supposed to be weeding a garden. And believe me, the guard did more work than all the prisoners put together. He pleaded with them. 'Come on, fellas, let's do just a little work,' he said."
Before you write a letter to the government about this. I had better tell you that my friend was in jail several years ago. Conditions may have changed a lot.
There are men around who could give me a more detailed account of jail than Joe Sivad's, but they are a reticent bunch. Modest, you might say.
On the other hand, Joe Sivad retained his amateur viewpoint. He is therefore able to talk lightheartedly about the whole thing. It is the prize item in his gallery of anecdotes. He talks about his time in jail the way less fortunate men talk about the day they fell through the ice on the creek.
They sent Joe to work in the barber shop. He was the only professional barber in there. Some of the others had gone to .barber school and quit half-way through. Their scissors, clippers and razors were in poor shape. Joe cleaned Slid sharpened them, then buckled down to the job, which consisted mainly of hanging around and drinking coffee.
The boys who worked in the kitchen smuggled the coffee out. Joe

A salesman was trying to sell a young wife an egg tinier. "Your husband's egg will be just right if you use this," he assured her.
"But. I don't need it," she answered brightly. "Jack likes his eggs the way I do them. I just look through the window at the traffic lights and give them three reds and two greens."

liberties.of democracy should be retrained for the common good.
Research, these books tell us, has discovered that four out of every five boys and girls start driving before they are 21, and that one person is killed in a motor accident every 14 minutes in the U.S. One person is injured every 23 seconds. Eight out of ten cases are not accidents, but violations. Three-quarters of the pedestrian fatalities are due to unsafe acts, such as Jay walking, ignoring lights, or walking on the wrong side of the road. The highest incidence of motor accidents occurs between * Mf*** and S p.mr, the next highest between eight and 12. There-are less deaths in February and most in October. Saturdays take 21 percent of the toll, Sundays 19 percent. One-fifth of all accidents occur in rain, snow or fog.
Almost any knucklehead can start and steer a car. Being able to handle a vehicle in other than normal situations is the important thing and only by a study of the social and psychological emotions — the reason behind most accidents — and by a concentrated effort to wipe out poor driving attitudes, can we learn to live with the automobile.

Just about every commodity in the world could be bought behind prison walls — smuggled in and distributed by a highly efficient secret organization.
They organized everything you can imagine, except a branch of Rotary or Kiwanis — and they might have done that, if they could have got a charter.
"To hear the boys talk in jail, the only thing that got them inside Was one little mistake. And when they got out, they weren't ever going to make THAT mistake again. Of course they might make a different one."
"And they were already casing new jobs, right from jail. They'd keep asking me about different stores in my home town—how mach the take was, when and where they did their banking. They didn't want to know the easiest way in—they would figure those things for themselves. They just wanted to know whether the job would be worth while."
Well, those were some of the things my friend Joe Sivad the barber told me. By now some of you smart people will have found out that Sivad is only Davis spelled backwards. Fooled you on that one. Davis isn't his real name either.

CRIPPLED BOY HAS CHEERY OUTLOOK
THE HANNA HERALP ond EAST CENTRAL Aj.pERTA N*SWS~THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 10, I M S
" W i t n good care and patience, some day I'm going to ride that bike." That may be the thought of Bobby MacLachlan, eight and a half year old son of Mr. and Mrs. George MacLachlan ot Hanna. Bobby, eighteen months ago contracted a disease which prevented the use of his legs. Since that time he has been a patient in the Red Cross Crippled Children's Hospital , Calgary. On Christmas Day the cast which enclosed practically his whole body for 14 months, was removed, and he was allowed out of bed for a short time. Since then he has been forced to again return to his bed. However, despite his ailment he has not allowed his school studies to lapse. He is now in grade three, enjoys motion picture films, and has become a member ot the Cubs. Young Bobby has many friends in Hanna who are pulling for him, and are looking forward to the day when Bob rides that bike!
Careful Choosing Of Books Advocated
The supervisor of public libraries, H. E. Newsom, of the Dept of Scon omic Affairs, of Edmonton, spoke o members of the Hanna public library advising that from 35 to 40 pcrcen; of the books in the library be for children. He said that there is a bas ic list put out by the government for children's materials. A book list can be obtained which lists according .c> age, non-fiction, fiction, teenage, school and pre-school.
Mr. Newsom said to choose the books carefully when ordering, to get good books and get a variety. Canadian authors books were recommended. There are many good ones and we shoud support our own authors, the speaker stated.
Mr. Newsom said that Alberta is far behind any other province in the development of its libraries. It is setting plans for more and better libraries but such a long way Ixhin I other provinces that there is much to do before Alberta equals other provinces. School libraries also lag behind the other three western provinces. There is a great educational work to be done in promoting libraries, he said.
Mr. Newsom is a" former school teacher who is enthusiastic about his work. It was while teaching school that he became aware of the great need for libraries. He was instrumental in organizing a library in she village in which he was located at the time. Although this place has a population of approximately three hundred persons he succeeded in getting a few interested in a library. Before he left there the library had become so popular that only a

Relations—administers the Alberta Labour Act, which in itself has gained wide recognition as outstanding legislation of its kind. By its provisions, the Board of Industrial Relations has jurisdiction over such matters as minimum wages, hours of work, holiday and overtime pay, as well as-general conditions affecting the welfare of the worker. The Act applies to all employers and employees in the province except farm labour and domestic servants.
Full collective bargaining rights are guranteed under the Act and the procedure for settling disputes through negotiation, conciliation and arbitration is carefully outlined.
Alberta's record is singularly free from strike action. There have been relatively few major disputes. The department gives careful consideration to the problems of both labour and management.
In Alberta, with its marked industrial expansion, an adequate supply of skilled labour is essential. The training of young men and women for designated trades is the responsibility of the Ap
prentice s h i p Board and is a joint undertaking of the Provincial and Federal Gov
ernments. In relation to population, more apprentices are being trained in Alberta than in any other Canadian province.

Needless to say the sweets that are allowed are best eaten as dessert, never between meals.
For young children it is best not! to allow hard foods, such as nuts. Every once in a while a salted peanut or something of the sort will be breathed in by a child. Such an acci dent causes serious disease in the lung.
Nuts, chunks of raw carrot and hard candies are foods of this class to be avoided. Grated nuts, thin strips of carrot are quite ail right. It is the hard food difficult to chew that occasionally causes trouble.

Chamber Commerce Briefs On Budget BUSINESS ORGANIZATION URGE OTTAWA TO GIVE DEFENCE PRIORITY
THf MANNA HWAIP ond IAST CINfflAL, ALWHWA> NIWg^HURSOAV^ KBHUAHY 10, )f55
SEDALIA *
OTTAWA—Canada's national bust-1 must be drawn between what is soc-ness organization today told the gov-jially desirable as an ultimate aim enrment that defence requirements and that which can be achieved with much continue to remain the first j out damaging the system which mak-priority on federal finance, but there! es our social welfare advances pos-should be a detailed public review sible. of Canada's defence program within j "Rather fiscal policy should be the limitations of national security. Defence spending, it was stated, should get the same thorough scrutiny as that applied to ordinary ex-pneditures.
The Executive Council of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, in a brief to the Ministers of Finance and National Revenue, warned that there should be no let-up in our determination to maintain an alert and armed watch or in our contribution to the collective security of N.A.T.O., and the United Nations. However, there had been a marked re-shaping of defence programs in both the United States and the United Kingdom, and the Canadian people "are entitled to a more complete review of our defence program than that which has been forthcoming from the Federal Government."
Dealing with recommendations for the forthcoming federal budget, the Chamber's' brief urged the government to "ease the heavy burden of taxation in those areas where it will be most conductive to personal and corporate incentives."
First priority, it was stated, should be directed toward eliminating the excise taxes on certain consumer goods which became embedded in our fiscal structure during world war II and Korea. These taxes "weigh unfairly on particuar industries."
As for corporate taxation, the brief urged that it be progressively lowered even if the reductions could only be small. "With the prospect of even more competitive markets in which cost considerations will become paramount and against a background of less urgent over all demand, the magnitude of this tax burden on the average Canadian company cannot be overemphasized," it was pointed out.
Similarly taxes on personal incomes were too high. Steeply graded rates blunted incentives and-there
further shaped to stimulate productivity from which all social benefits must come, and to maintain the already impressive contribution of Canadian business to the security and welfare of its employees .This is evidenced by the number of employer-supported plans for retirement pensions, health insurance, holidays and vacations with pay and other similar welfare measures now successfully operating in companies throughout Canada."
In a reference to trade the brief said in part—"The Executive Council believes that the more liberal post war trading atmosphere has contributed to the current strength and balance of Western European prosperity, with the rise in potential de mand for Canadian products which this implies. We are also seeing some
exemptions, and in addition, that there be no limit upon the amount of medical expenses allowed as a deduction in any year; (b) to revice the relevant provisions of the Income Tax Act to permit charitable donations reported by all taxpayers which are in excess of the amounts permitted in a taxation year to be claimable against the income of the previous year or the next succeeding five years; TO that the right of the Department of National Revenue, to reassess a taxpayer except in case of fraud, should be limited to a period of one year from the date of the assessment; (d) that professional auditors be appointed to the Secretariate to act as advisors to the Income Tax Appeal Board, "since the Board deals continually with accounting problems;" (e) that the present exemption of up to 34,000 in the case of gifts be increased, since "the value of the dollar has depreciated since 1933," when the present exemption was set up under the Income War Tax Act; (f) to permit the cost of appeals from assessments under the Income Tax Art to be deducted from taxable income; (g) where a man's wife works for him in the same capacity as a regular employee that her remuneration be treated

A warning was issued on the danger of rigidities in our fiscal structure and the government was asked to avoid additional large-scale commitments of a lasting and expanding character. Rigidity in the fiscal structure, said the brief, could only really be substantially mitigated by a rise in our national productivity.

Programs on other Canadian provinces will be made up similarly, consisting of N.F.B. fims and provincial government films.
Initial Alberta distribution of the "Film Tour of Canada" series is being made from the Edmonton office of the National Film Board but eventually the series will be available to all film depots and libraries. N.F.B. offices in other provinces will be distributing the series as well.
Purpose of the series is to present a pictorial view of Canada of educational value to the public. It is hop ed, as well, that showing of the films will encuorage inter-provincial travel.

New Site Obtained For Calgary Jail
A new site for the Calgary Provincial Jail has been acquired by the Alberta Government.
It will be 11 miles west of Calgary north of the Calgary-Banff Highway, in an area known as the Pallesen Es-
"tate. Jn the transaction, the Alberta Government disposed of the previous Chestermere Lake site at $144 per acre, the same price paid for it. The new site of 2,500 acres cost $68 an acre.
An over delivery of up to 400 bushels of grain may be made by farmers for the purchase of registered or certified seed. This is in addition to the designated quota at the producer's delivery point and is to be in payment or part payment for up to 180 bushels registered or certified seed wheat, oats or barley. There are however, a few stipulations laid down by the Wheat Board concerning this delivery.
1. The proceeds of the commercial grain delivered by the producer must not exceed the cost to the producer of the registered or certified seed purchased.
2. It the farmer buys his seed from the elevator he must sign an order for the seed required with the elevator agent either before or at the time he delivers his grain, ljf he buys his seed through one of the ether agencies (Crop Improvement Associations, the Crop Testing Plan, from a bona fide dealer in registered and certified seed or from a re-gisteed seed grower) he must submit a certified copy of the invoice covering the purchase of the seed along with instructions to the elevator agent to issue a cash ticket to the seller for the value of the grain delivered over the quota.
3. In all cases proper entries covering the grain delivered by the producer must be made in the producers permit book in the space provided for supplementary quotas with the notation "Seed Grain Purchase."
This instruction expires June 1st, 1955.
Shelterbelt Trees' " Are Still Available
Shelterbelt trees are still available for 1995 planting. E. D. McCalla, sup ervisor of horticulture, Alberta Department of Agriculture, tells us there are still Caragana, Green Ash, Manitoba Maple, Lodge Pole Pine and hardwood cuttings of Russian Poplar for those farmers who have land prepared for them.
The demand for trees has been heavy so Mr. McCalla urges all who are interested to get their applications in as soon as possible. Appli cation forms may be obtained from your district agriculturist or the field crops branch. Alberta Dept. of Agriculture, Edmonton.
Shelterbelts serve many purposes. Around the farmstead the shelterbelt protects the house from the cold north winds in winter. This helps reduce the fuel bill. Along the road it will prevent drifting of snow (provided it is placed the required 125 J feet back from the road); and a field shelterbelt will hold the snow in the spring and thereby conserve moisture and prevent wind and water erosion.
These four points make a shelter-belt well worth while.

Keep lhal camera close at hand for you'll sec much worth recording on film.
During the first three days, make a circuit through central Alberta. You can start on Highway No. 2 at the Sylvan Lake turnoff. Here is a cairn which tells all about Anthony Henday, a trader for the Hudson's Bay Company, the first tourist who wandered past that spot 200 years ago. Swing over to Rocky Mountain House oh Highway 11 and, when you pull up before old chimneys on the other side of town, put your camera to work and let your imagination run wild. Recall the black nights when burly fur traders drew near the warm fire in the trading post while the Blackfeet Indians beat drums and howled and danced across the river.
After returning east over Highway 11, stop off at Red Deer to see Fort Normandeau at the old river cross ing. This* place once was a store, but
Continuing southward on Highway No. 2 stop at Claresholm for a mem-ent to see the plaque honoring Louise Crummy McKinney. She set the men folk back' on their heels 38 years ago when she became the first woman in the British Empire to be elected to a provincial legislature.
Your route during the next few days is in and around the Rockies. Drive over to the Frank Slide in the Crowsnest Pass. Don't be so awed by the spectatcle of the huge limestone boulders that you forget to tise your camera. This slide, which covers* the whole valley floor, wiped out a mining plant, railway line and a big part of the town of Frank in 19C3.
Next drive down to Waterton Lakes National Park, where you will hear all about "Kootenai" Brown—• the first settler in the district. His grave is here, as well as a cairn recounting his exploits.
On the trip from Cardston to Banff you'll see several interesting sites. There is the memorial to Red Crow, head chief of the Bloods, located at
which tells about the arrival of the Mount ies back ln 1874; driving west from Calgary, see old McDougall mission still standing near Morley: and the memorial at Canmore to Rev. W. C. Gordon, who became a famous author under the name of Ralph Connor.
Banff is not only a famous tourist mecca. but it also has its share of history. Spend some time at Norman Luxton's museum if you want to get an idea of the way the Indians dressed, lived and travelled in thc early days. Then look at the plaque on Main Street which tells about Rev. Robert Rundle, the first missionary in Alberta, who visited the area in 1841
When you drive up to Jasper you will see cairns — to Henry House, Jasper House and Sir David Thomp son. Don't let that word "house" confuse you, it was only the fur traders expresssion for a fort.

Once again the largest producing area in Alberta is District No. 8, comprising the area between Innisfail and Wetaskiwin and Stettler and Camrose. A total of 242,900 hogs were marketed and graded in this area. This district is followed by No. 11, the Edmonton area, with 220,000 hogs. In third position was district No. 14, Westlock, Clyde, and Atha baska which marketed 195,000 hogs. Five districts in the province produced less than 25,000 hogs.

Signs of a battle were evident around the area where blood had been shed; with the four-pointer deer on top, the horns were locked in such a manner that both animals faced the same way.

This is THE MARK OF A NEW AGE! j . .'•>%-'
big, bold Sweep-Sight Windshield — , vxf^fe1*! back to vertical corner posts —is
easy-to-see evidence that Chevrolet has cast aside the tradition of the past to start
a whole new. age of low-cost motoring. It's smarter to lookat—safer to look out of—and it's only part of Chevrolet's
new outlook for '55!
Yes, Chevrolet brings you a whole new outlook in low-cost motoring for 1955 ! It's best symbolized, we think, by the sweeping expanse of windshield that widens your view of the road and lets you "see through" the corners for greater safety.
The car with the new idea ! Besides widening your view of the road, the Motoramic Chevrolet broadens the whole horizon of the low-priced car. It was built around the idea that a car doesn't have to be high-priced to look, ride and
perform like it. A lot of time and sweat went into the building. A lot of old traditions went out the window because they didn't measure up to this daring new concept. Trust Chevrolet to have the resources and the skill—yes, and the courage—to break so completely with the past.
Everything's new in Chevrolet! Everything — from its tubeless tires to its lower top. There's new beauty with that long, low "let's go" look! New fun underfoot with the new "Turbo-Fire" V8 and the new "Blue-Flame" six! A new
choice of drives—new Overdrive, Super-Smooth Powerglide (extra-cost options), and new standard transmission! A wonderful new ride! New High-Level ventilation! But we can't even begin to give you the whole story here.
Look who's stealing whose thunder!
Chevrolet's stealing the thunder from the high-priced cars in more ways than one I Come in, drive it, and you'll see why the Motoramic Chevrolet starts a new and exciting age of low-cost motoring. This you're going to love!

Mr. McDonald, a native of Gait, Ontario and the company's first Canadian manager when it was established in Toronto, pointed out that industrial expansion was producing higher standards of living and helping to create record-breaking construction in both residential and commercial fields.
Residential construction he pointed out, increased from $131 million to $915 million in the past ten years hTe number of central heating units in the nation's home rose from 50,-000 to more than one million. Commercial air conditioning units installed increased from 4,000 to 5,000 and, industrial air conditiong units from 2,000 to 12,000 in the same period.
Pointing out that the nations' population is expected to increase 33 per cent in the next decade, McDonald declared that new schools, public, commercial and industrial buildings would also add greatly to the growth of the heating, ventilating and air-conditioning controls market.

THE LAST TO LEAVE SUNNYNOOK OBITUARY
( F r o m O u r O w n C o f - a e p o n d e n t )
During the past week several of the boys have rambled over to the new curling rink and really curled some good games from behind the glass and when we were not curling we were sampling the good pies hamburgers and soup. We were all pulling for the boss and the assistant cook but lady luck seemed to frown on them both.
Speaking of luck two members connected with Pleasant View were lucky at the curlers bingo that was held on Friday night. Mr. Chalmers won the blackout and for a prize will receive a new Spring ensemble. Mr. Sam Wallace of the staff won a beautiful electric clock set in a sailboat pattern.
On Sunday afternoon we really enjoyed the singing of the Hanna United Church choir under the direction of Mr. Hay. We certainly appreciate this fine gesture on the part of the choir and we sincerely hope they will come again in the not too distant future.
Monday night a good show was presented for our enjoyement. "Rouges on the March" was the title. A snooker tournament has just been completed and Ivan Bushert beat all corners' and was matched against Davie Jones in the finals. Mr. Bushert received three dollars and Mr. Jones two del-

Next Sunday a three p.m. we are looking forward to a visit from Lt. Brown of the Hanna Corp Salvation Army. You are cordially invited to come and worship with us.
Several of the men are still under the weather, got to blame something so we'll say the unseasonable weather is causing the sickness. In Hanna this week are Messrs Mellom, Levins, Home, Robi and Samuel Scott. Mr. Lee Mattitall is in the Cereal hospital. Mr. George Carmen left this week for Stockton, Calif., where he will be visiting friends and relatives for the next three months.
Many of the bonspielers were over visiting some of their former neighbors in between games and by way of a change and a little less strenuous past time enjoyed a game of snooker with the boys; and that's about all the rambling this time.

SOIL COMPACTION — A SERIOUS PROBLEM
Soil Compaction i? a new name given to the old problem of "ham pun" or "plow sole". As compneteci soil may form where plowing is not practised, and where a true "hard pan" does not occur, the new name sceins well cho-vn.
Compacted Soil Common. In many areas of Western Canada farmer*-speak of "hard pan" or "plow sole". They refer to a hard, compacted layer of soil which occurs just below (he depth of cultivation and mav l*e sex eral inches thick. This condition usually occurs in land that has grown cereal crops almost ex-(Ju*'ively for many years. There are •<ever.il factors which contribute to 'his condition. First of all, the fibre ml organic matter in the soil have
l>een largely destroyed through repeated cultivation and cropping and puddle erosion has filled the natural upon spaces in the soil with fine -.'oil particles. In addition, on the heavier soils particularly, heavy machinery travelling over the land while the subsoil is wet, has had a tendency to compact the sub-tillage layer.
A Serious Problem. Compacted soil is a serious problem. It will not absorb or hold moisture properly and aeration is reduced. The results are increased water erosion and reduced crop yields.
Tillage at depths up to 24 inches has been tested in the United States in an attempt to break up compacted soil, ln many instances yield increases did not pay for the extra cost of deep tillage. In other cases ihe benefits were only temporary. The same is true of the limited .mount of experimental work with deep tillage done in Western Canada. Until more conclusive results are obtained regarding the . a (ue oi deep tillage, the econom-cal way of handling the soil compaction problem would, seem to be
, through growing more grass and I egume crops.
Our fertile soils were built under *rrass and can be maintained' with grass.

Sixteen rinks will play for "cash" at the Morrin Curling Club on Friday, Feb. 18. Announcement to this effect was made on Wednesday by E. O. Parry, president of the club. There will be a limit of sixteen rinks, and prize money will be divided as follows: 1st, $50, 2nd. $20. 3rd, $20.

In Planning Stage An open mixed bonspiel at the
Hanna Curling rink is still in the discussion stage, but if interest contin ties to soar, as has been evident dur ing the past few days, the event will likely be held in the early part o£ March. Bruce Hutchison, hard work ing president of the club, told the Herald that enthusiasm is particular ly evident from outside curlers, who would like to take the "better half" and enjoy three or four days of curling. An open 'spiel would be the first ever held in Hanna and many club members ' believe it would prove most attractive. Further information will be available for next week.

Eleven of the fourteen districts into which Alberta has been divided by the farm bod fsftave agreed so far to participate. The B.C. Block district held its Workshops in mid-January.
A Canadian record has already been achieved by the "Roundup" membership drive last Fall, it was learned. The previous membership! record was made by the Saskatchewan Farmers' Union in the Fall of 1053 when early 48 percent of the farm heads of the Province were signed up.
According to a statement released by W. D. Summers, FUA campaign director, tbe present number of farm heads of families enrolled in Alberta has topped the 49 percent mark. "I am confident the Workshops now being planned will realize finally thc lifelong ambition of thousands of veteran farm unionists," Mr. Summers asserted.

MONTREAL, Feb. 7—Effective oa April 24, Canadian National Railways will operate a new, faster transcontinental train which will considerably reduce running time from Montreal and Toronto to Vancouver. At the same time, all CNR transcontinental passenger trains will be fidly dieselized on the 2930-mile route.
The decision to speed up service followed a study which included a number of experimental runs with diesels on the Continental Limited. The CNR now is studying how it can best use this time saving, having regard to/the convenience of travellers and communities across the country and on connections with other routes served by these trains.
The fast train will not replace the present popular Continental Limited but will be in addition, to i t However, the two sections of the Continental Limited will be consolidated at Capreol and run as one train to the Pacific Coast.

It will carry a wide variety of s l ee / jg accommodation, and will have dinette and grill cars as well as standard dining cars.
