The New Glasgow rink is going strong again and the young people are certainly enjoying themselves skating and playing hockey.

Horse racing has taken a big boom here this winter and every- thing points to a great winter's racing as there are a lot of new horses coming into the club also some real good colts showing up.

Blair Andrew has in his stable two good trotters namely Christie Budlong 2.00 and Buddy Moko 2.13, owned by George Brooklns which he is jogging daily in preparation for the coming season's racing. There is also a three year old colt that looks like a real good

prospect. Everyone is glad to see the blacksmith Mr. Geo. Smith at his

anvil again after a few month's layoff, dug to rheumatism. Every- body knows Georgo takes quite an interest in horse racing, therefore tries his best to help the boys hang out their horses.

One genial race secretary C. B. Orr has plans all laid out for a. new snow plow to clean the course which is badly needed and. racefans certainly hope it will be satisfactory. He has engaged a skllful man hel ing him to build it, Mr. Xavier olron who needs no introduction and is always ready to help the boys out with any clean sport.»

A new dam is to he built at Andrews re lacing the old one that was washe out recently. It will be greatly appreciated as it is hadly needed in the community for sawing 8nd crushing alsofortour- ists and local fishermen as it was one of the best fishing spots. When ready it will be well stocked with speckled beauties and residents ho a great many an lers will be obi): to spend happy ours there.

Mr. John H. Buntain who has been confined to his home with a bad cold ls now the guest of his daughter, Mrs. Chalmers Lalril and Mr. Laird.

The enterprising merchant R.‘ L. Dlckieson is convalesclng alter having been ill with pneumonia and his friends look forward lo seeing him about his duties short- ly.

New Glasgow ls proud to wel- come home another of her brave sons, Albert Ling from overseas when he has been serving with the R.C.A.F._

1t is hoped that the road lead- lng from New Glasgow through Mayfield to the National Park which has been in very bad shape for some time will be properly graded and gravelled this comlnir summer as-it is one of the busiest roads leading to Cavendish Beach and Green Gables-N.

President's Report

Another year has rolled around and again we gather for the an- nual meeting of our Victory Bees Society. It is our final meeting as a Red Cross unit.

The Dist year was one long to be remembered as it marked the end of a moat devastating and terrible World War. We are ex- tremely thankful for the peace that has once again is rel ng in our midst but. we are no for- getting the one of our brave young men who went forth with the 0th’ era but who ls not to return.

We held 17 meetings during the war at three-week intervals when possible. and at most of them our members showed interest and en- thusiasm in them. M fellow of- ficers attended to t eir duties very faithfully for which they re- ceive my thanks.

We are hoping to see one of our members who has been absent because of her ill health, soon back with us.—We miss her great- ly as she is such a jolly person.

Mr. Chas. A. Roy. the President of the Bank, started his address by stressing the notable increase in assets and in deposits during the year just finished. He added "com- pared. with the re-war period, the progress made y your Bank was very satisfactory."

We made donations to the vari- ous seasonai funds in answer to appeals; also to the Red Cross and to other war aids. We also paid an instalment on the Books of Knowledge for the; School and we feel they are a very useful addi- tion to our school library.

Our social functions consisted of sending of cards of sympathy to the bereaved families of our dis- trict and fruit and reanemibrsuces to our sick. We remembered with suitable gifts. a family leaving the district, three brides and wee newcomer. We also sent cigar- ettes to a number of servicemen OVBPSGELS.

Lastly mav I again thank you, officers. for your good work and may we all go forth together. as we have done before. with the

during the war."

Then making l1 summary review of what had taken place during the last few years, the President of the Bank sold "the Canadian economy has changed rapidly, sov- oral new industries were establish- ed, others increased in size and today, the productive capacity is greater than before the war. An- other change is in sight,—thoae plants which were transformed to manufacture war equipment are again being changed to produce civilian goods, but the change-over will take time, because in many cases, it involves the manufacture or the purchase of new machinery and equipment. These factories which, during war time, confined their oxerations to the production of goo s for civilian account, are equipped to produce even more than they did in war time. Hw- ever, raw materials are scarce and often unavailable, experienced workers are lacking and. accord- ingly, instability prevails."

Now that the war is over Hir- Priorities that continue to exist are veryunfalr. The workers should also be given their freedom to, seek work wherever they picase and to negotiate with their cm-i ployers without having to obscrve' troublesome formalities.

The shifting of the population whluh took place during the war, brought about a problem of hous- ing which has been accentuated by the return of the soldiers. The building industry has not bcci-i- able to get into full swing because of the lack of materials and com- petent help. The Federal Govern- ment policy on returns. besides prejud cing the righs of many pro- prletors, has had a very depressing effect on private builders and on those who have been desirous of l-"Velli-IXIE their savings 1n real es- tate. The economic pollcy which the Government established over a‘ period of six years now neces- sitates the securing of export mar- kets for the sale of our excess pro- ducts. Exportation has become in- dispensable to the maintenance of a lgh national income, in order to meet the onerous obligations that have been incurred by the Government, as well as to provide for bugetary expenses which are now very high. ,

Unfortunately, internal as well as international complications have held up the opening of an export market on an extended scale.

Canada has inaugurated a policy of export credit in favor of these countries impoverished by the war. Only the future will tell if these international exchanges will prove mutually beneficial or re- sult _ln the development of com- petition in the export field.

Our country has not suffered the war damages experienced by oth- ers. Nevertheless, producing for war purposes instead of producing to increase the wealth of the coun- try has created very serious prob- lems. At the present time, while the gublic have considerable means at t eir disposal, the fact remains that on the other hand, the State has accumulated an enormous debt. According to recent statements published, the consolidated debt has reached sixteen billion dollars or an increase of twelve billion dollars in six years.

After so much spending during the past few years, it is to be hoped that the Government will now so direct its economy as lo give first place to the real interest of the country, and also that it will adopt fiscal and financial poli- cies, that are constructive but sound. A reduction of expenses and the elimination of waste, a balanc- ing of the budget and a reduced and better incidence of taxation are ways and means that will help to bring back those economic conditions which go to reduce the cost of living. A reduction of taxes on the salaries and wages, of work- ers and a lowering of the cost of living would facilitate an adjust.- ment of the problem of wages and selling prices. At the present time, these are a few among many con- ditlons indispensable to the return of full industrial and commercial activity; their adoption would help make possible the morketin: of products at competitive prices.

The year ahead of us will pro- bably witness some very import- ant developments. It may be that our expectations and hopes will not be realized as quickly as we had anticipated, nevertheless we should all face the future with confidence.
