On mountains far, trees caught the shine. The olive trees, the oak and pine, All bent their heads in reverence deep, Trees, Shepherds, angels, Wise Men, sheep; While down and down the warm light sped To dream-drenched town and a manger bed, Caressing the spot where Jesus lay, A little baby in the hay.

Stuart “The Farmers in the Market Place,” was the topic" discussed by Ontario Farm Forum recent- ly. The Edgeley Farm Forum was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Darlington and the two questions discussed were as follows: 1. Co-operatives have un- dertaken many jobs that need to be done. Among them are: Edu- cation (both producer and con- sumer), credit assistance Market Development, Merchan- dising, Distribution Sales. Which of these jobs needs to be done but are not being carried out in the commodities with Which you are familiar? (The consensus of opinion with- in the Farm Forums ' through- out Ontario was that many jobs undertaken by Co-operative Mar- keting Boards such as Education (producer and xconsumer) credit assistance, market development, 1.-erchandising and distribution sales are not being carried out Well enough on the various com- modities. The Milk Foundation handles education in schools and factories, the Edgeley Forum in- dicated. A _ 2. wa do you propose‘that these jobs be done}? ' Here is a proud mother, with her family â€" Roxdane’s Black Patti is a registered Great Dane and is owned by John Yorke and son Bryce of Maple. She has good reason to be proud of her family of nine puppies born a few months ago.. In this litter‘three pups were black like the mother and six pups were harlequins (white with black patches) taking after the father, Roxdane Bozo. Lois and John Yorke believe this to be a record as a black female seldom has more than two or three harlequins in a litter. Since harlequins are the rarest colour of Great Danes. young Bryce York was most anxious to show off the family of Patti and Bozo.

The Season’s Best In passing (in case my doctor looks in on the column) I did go to my husband Len’s ofiice party last Thursday night â€" sure I looked like an Ubangi with a wooden leg, but it was fun and full of Christmas spirit!! New Slate of Officers The December meeting of the Maple United Church W_M.S. was held Tuesday evening December 15 in the church parlor with Mrs, Bigford presiding. Rev. Davies installed the new So from your Liberal corres- pondent, yours truLy, Toby Shore, and your paper boy Michael Weir â€" we wish you all‘a very Merry Christmas. Maple Notes Proud Mother stated as an urgent problem by the Edgeley Forum while other Forums included poultry and poultry products. Education on marketing was stressed by many Forums as a very necessary job. 55% of the members felt the co-operatives must expand and develop their educational program . The job of merchandising done by the co-operatives could be much improved, stated many Farm Forum members. This is particularly so with eggs, the Edgeley Forum stated. They stressed that eggs need to get to the consumer quicker and be kept better refrigerated. Mer- chandising carried out by co~ operative sales agencies, was one idea put forth by some For- ums. Other members questioned the absence of co-operative gro- cery stores in large rural centres: The co-operatives can succeed in being a great help to farmers in the field of distribution sales. Some Fox'de feel that sales are not being pushed as well as they might be. If Co-operative Mar- keting Boards concentrated on distribution sales it would im- prove _sales volume. Credit assistance, although a- vailable in many areas. is dif- ficult to get. Some Forums sug- gested this credit might be ob- tained through. credit unions. (By Mrs. R. Stuart) The annual meeting of the Edgeley Women’s Association was held at the home of Mrs. Eldon Fierheller on Thursday December 10. The roll call was answered by each member quot- ing a Bible verse containing the word “Peace.” Mrs. R. J.

The two new Guiders, Mrs. Al WhaIey and Mrs. Warren Bai- lie were enrolled as Guides. Both leaders have been so keen on getting their own tenderfoot work done as well as looking af- ter the company, and it was an exciting moment for them when enrolment time finally came. They looked so smart in their new uniforms that the Guides and thelixguests felt very proud of the new leaders. After enrolment the girls play- ed a few games while the girls who were trying for their hostess badges prepared the refresh- men-ts. The Guides held a gift ex- change and Mrs. Whaley pres- ented Mrs. Bisson and Mrs. Kef- fer the “retiring” leaders each with a gift. from_the Company. Teen Town plans to have its Christmas party on Wednesday evening, December 30 at the school. so try to remember the date. kids. Last month’s attend- ance was very poor, let's do bet- ter for December. Social " Réfreshments were served by the Guides. Teen Town Mr. and Mrs. Fred Orr at- tended the annual Christmas dance at the Cardinal Club last Friday night. Mr. and Mrs. Bob Haines at- tended the Christmas party at West York Motors last Tuesday evening and we hear that Bob’s brother, Harvey played a feature role for which he is well equip- ped. Wonder who that could be? Now that Mother looks a lit- tle heavier from sampling the Christmas baking, and Father's wallet is lighter from Christmas shopping. and the Christmas tree has been redecorated for the twenty-ninth time, we can just sit back and wait for Saint Nick to drop the mink and diamonds down the chimney, and Father can throw away the keys to the old car and prepare to drive his new sports model. (Well, if our four-year-old thinks she’s get- ting a two-wheel bicycle then I just know all the other things will be here too!) Merry Christ- mas everyone!
