The program was originally drafted last spring and suaomli- ted to each of the five regions for consideration, suggestions and approval. Based on this year’s acceptance by the indus- try and support by producers, there appears to be very good prospect for an expanded effort in 1965. Certainly there is a new spirit of optimism for the dairy business.

HER MAJESTY

Certainly in point of interest nothing will occur next week in compare with the visit of Her Majesty the Queen. So much will be written and said about this visit that anything more would certainly appear to be superﬂuous. However, one as- pect of the British Monarchy and the British Aristocracy is the abiding interest held over many years in agriculture. In the old land practically all titled peo- ple had an interest in the coun-

try and in agriculture. While

considerable time, may e spent in London nevertne. less "home" was in the country. The Queen in her own right ranks as a large farmer and is well v e r s e d in livestock and practically all phases of British agriculture. this with its agricultural background the Queen will find a very spe- cial bond of interest and a real agricultural welcome.

Present planning indicates that on or about November 10 a special potato meeting Will be held in Summerside at which growers will be provided with information on markets. proba- bly a re p ort from the Potato Marketing Board and from the committee which was set up as a result of the meeting held on March 30th. It is likely if the meeting feels that there are mar- keting problems which need att- ention that an opportunity will be provided for discussion and the registering of opinions. Pros- pects at the present time are for markets throughout the season and it is to be hoped this optimism is justified. This year the province has bumper crops in every department and the most important cash crop can be turned into lots of case everyone will certainly be bel- r off.

i l By NEIL A. MATHESON = Provincial-Farm Editor

I HAD the privilege of sharing in a most unusually moving experience when the people of South GranVIlle Presbyterian church observed their 100th annivorsaly last Sunday afternoon.

There were many things to remind one of the services of : the long ago. The old church itself is unchanged in its basic structure and arrangement since I first worshipped in it me than 50 years ago. The interior has recently been painted and redecorated and presents an attractive appearance as a place of worship.

But tears came to my eyes as I was whisked rapidly down [the long trail of memory. when William Bruce of Valleyfield “- sented" the lines for the rendition of the 103rd psalm in Gaelic for those of us who were singing will: him. It took me

THE FACT the psalms. and a paraphrase. were sung with- out organ music was another reminder. And Lloyd Leland'a reading of the lesson in his faultless Gaelic was still another link with the past that was forged on that unforgettable aftero

I can recall the days when only the psalms were counten» ‘ in scone of the older Presbyterian churches I wonder 5how many readers can recall e statement: “The came dowu from heaven and they go back to heaven when they are sung, but the hymns which were man-made go only I to the ceiling of the church and bounce back from there." If i that sentiment seems unreal now, it was xcry real to those 3 who held that opinion in the long ago.

DEVOTED CHURCH people held strong. views in those learner days. I recall attending a Sacrament service one Sun- day in this same South Granville church. with my mother my oy ys. One of the men sitting in the side seats. facing the pulpit. at the front of the church arose and walked

from the building shortly before the service started.

W n we went to a neighbor’s home for dinner, as was the custom. I learned that one of the devout members of the congregation had walked from the building because some one had broug t a vase of beautiful flowers and placed it on the table in front of the pulpit.

Well, it's like this. We started with the windshield and we made every single window iust a little bit bigger. All the better to see with. But the new Volkswagen still looks pretty much like the old Volkswagen. Unless you look real clasa. Martin Hilliard looked real close. Kids are like that.
