MODERN EQUIPMENT IS VITAL FACTOR IN FULL SCAlE FARM PRODUCTION PHONE 86 Canada’s agriculture is highly productive. And one of the greatest assets that a nation can have, particularly in these troubled times, is a highly productive agriculture. Our national economy, our industrial production, the health of our people and our security, benefit greatly from the ability of our agriculture to produce great quantities of essential foods. That Canada’s agriculture produces more food than ever before with comparatively less manpower is due to the practical application of scientific developments and the effective use of modern power farming equipment. Gormley Block Co. Through continuous engineering developments, Massey-Harris has helped make available today tractors, combines and power machines to keep our farms operating at peak efficiency.

In those days, it was commonly be- lieved that, any one known to have the disease had only a slim chance of recovery, and as for the poor souls who had to associate with such persons, well, sooner or later they’d :have the TB. look too! Fortunately that day is gone for- ever. True, it is, that found in its advanced stages, tuberculosis can seldom be completely cured, but, when discovered in an early stage, and proper treatment be- gun at once, it is one of the most curable of all serious diseases. Al- though the disease can be trans- mitted from person to person, it is not hereditary. Because a father has TB. it does not necessarily follow that his child will have the disease also, or because a mother loses her life as the result of tu- berculosis, there is no reason why her young children cannot be per- fectly healthy. fectly healthy. Nevertheless, the inroads made by Uhis‘disease are serious. During the war years nearly as many per- sons died from tuberculosis in Can- ada as there were Canadians kllled by enemy action, and over half of these deaths occurred between the ages of 15 and 45, the most pro- ductive years of life. More per- sons die from tuberculosis in On- tario than from all other infectious diseases combined. You can readily appreciate, then, the‘value to our residents, and our community of the mass X-ray sur- vey beginning here July 3. The Lions Club in co-operation with the National Sanitarium Associa- tion, is giving every resident of this community an opportunity to protect themselves against this widespread disease by having a free chest X-ray. These X-rays are paid for by funds from TB. Christmas Seals. " Similar surveys held in other neighbourhoods have been most successful and the co-operation- of the public has been excellent. In Timmins, for instance, 90 percent of those canvassed were X-rayed. In other surveys conducted in the Province approximately two per- sons out of every thousand exam- ined were found to have pulmon- ary tuberculosis requiring immed- iate treatment. The Xâ€"ray is painless, as well as free, and takes only a moment of each person’s time. The staff of the National Sanitarium 'Assoc- iation who will do the X-raying‘ use the most up-to-date of equip- ment. And this is important â€" results of all X-rays will be kept confidential. You can easily see that to make this survey a real success, every- one must co-Orperate. Many can- vassers will be needed to call at the homes and places of business in order that no one is missed. In other centres where surveys have already been made, canvassers found householders and business men most anxious to take advan- tage of the opportunity of protect- ing the community’s health. Other communities have had 90 percent or more of their people X-rayed. With every one’s help we can do even better. One question has been asked frequently during these surveys, and you may hear it many times again before the survey is Over, “why go to the trouble and ab pense”, people ask, “of X-raying perfectly healthy people?” The answer is simple, only by all mak- ing sure we do not have tubercul- osis can we protect ourselves and our families. Only by an X-ray can tuberculosis be found in its early and curable stag-e. Su let us all, for the sake of ourselves, families, and community, do every- thing possible to make the coming survey one of the most successful ever conducted. Blessed with fine weather, each of the five Jr. Farmer clubs in this district entered a softball team for the annual Junior Far- mer Picnic at Musselman’s Lake held recently. Sharon and Vandorf survived for the final, with the Vandorf nine later taking the Sharon boys and girls into camp on a 12 to 1 score. The games in the ball tournament were inter- spersed wth sports including the popular tug-of-twar which was won by Sharon on the final pull. At supper time the four Junior farmers from Scotland arrived from Ontario County to join in the picnic lunch and afterwards to enjoy a good Canadian dance as guests of our juniors. The group included Miss Anne Chris- tie of West Carse, Stirling; Miss Rosemary Stewart, Kelso, Rox- burghshire; David Hamilton, Bath- gate, West Lothian and Arthur Young, Stromness, Orkney. Alex Roberts a former club pal of Da- vid’s,’ now a member of the Un- ionville Club, enjoyed the evening with his friend and the group. The York 1 Association of the, Federation of Women Teachers of Ontario held its annual meeting recently at the Summit Golf Club, Yonge Street north. Mr. O. M.

Tyndall Host Scottish Jr. Farmers' The group from Scotland spent a week between the counties of Simcoe, York and Ontario, with the girls being blleted by the Sim- coe Juniors.

Miss Richardson expressed the appreciation of the members to the retiring president Mrs. M. Pope, for her capable lead- ership during the year.

Bill has been wrestling for over two years now, and lately» has been starring at the Weston Arena and has created quite an impression qn the fans there. Billy will be trying hard to please the local folk on Friday and hopes to be able to throw Bully Paul Penchofi’ who will oppose him. The Langstafi' Recreation Com- mittee will sponsor an all-star professional wrestling card at Richmond Hill Arena next Eriday July 6. Wrestling On July 6 Richmond Hill Arena Penchof‘f is one of the rougher type of grapplers and is sometimes referred to as a spoiler; that is because he has injured 50 rrlany wrestlers both in the ring and the gym and is quite confident he can beat our Billy. When signing for the match he said “This Clubine is just. a punk kid and I’ll probably throw him two straight falls.” In the Semi-Final Ed “Mangler” Magnotich, no stranger to the Richmond Hill fans, returns ’a- gainst “Red” Garner, Langstaff mat veteran in a 2 out of 3 falls 45 minute limit match. The pre- liminaries have some outstanding local talent. Cleve Burton, start- ing on his come-back trail, locks horns with Farmer Norm Alex- ander of Richvale in one match, with that very popular strong boy, Bobby Jordan, opposing “Baron” Waldo Von Seiber, formerly of Stuttgart, Germany, in the other. These matches are being spon- sored by the Langstafi Recreation- al Committee who, headed by Fred Morris and Stan Wol‘sdale, has ar- range the bouts in aid of a com- munity hall. The Committee con- siders itself very fortunate to be able to present such a promising evening of fine sport and is grate- ful to “Red” Garner and his wrest- lers for lending their talents to the good cause.
