S“ Stephen 5,|5|u,,d, who is chairman of the Scottish Scawccd Research Association, said he wa?outhoritatively informed there was suffi- cient seaweed around the coasts of Scotland to support a chcmcial industry with an anrllwl Yflllle of iio less than 15.000000 pounds. of Wlikli °"°' third would go to collectorsand no less than 90 per cent would be spent iri Scotland. Success Wm,“ depcnd not only on individual enterprise, but on the backing of all those to Whom WWI‘ and opportunity were offered by the develofl" merit of the industry, which should redound so much to the benefit particularly of the western and northern islands. "This/Z, he said, is 0 prize well worth going out fora _ At present seaweed supplies arc short in Scotland. Small quantities come from the Outer Hebrides, but the bulk of it hos had to be im- ported from Eire and Norway. Hfliillls flew’; red the 5C0“ from going ahead industrially. The answer is the factory they haveDaIready es- tablished at Kariies, near Obaii, which has re; sumed processing operations after a few weeks close-down. Its possibilities were glowingly des- cribed by Sir Stephen when he opened, IQWHTIY. the "Seaweed Harvest" exhibition in the Rnvfll Scottish Museum, Edinburgh: ' _ Here wo have supplies of Irish moss _of the best quality right at hand. Its processing on the Island should have beenubegun long aqo. Farmers’ Tax Guide Now issued in booklet form, and available to all requiring it, is the "Farmers' Income Tax Guide and Farm Account Book." The booklet is supplied by the Taxation Division of the Depart- ment of National Revenue, Ottawa, and is in- tended to help farmers fill out their income tox returns correctly, so that, while paying what they should, they will get the benefit of all allow- ances that the law permits. The information is presented in the farm of questions and answers which have been div- ided into three sections. Tho first explains the necessity for keeping records and filing incomc tax returns, the second deals with specific items on the return and the third contains answers to questions of o general nature. In the occounl book section, each account is numbered to corre- sponil with the items on the income tox return. If all receipts and expenses are entered at the time of the transaction or shortly thereafter, the farmer's book-keeping chore should prove much easier. Presumably the booklet is bein-g supplied to rill farmers through the Taxation Division, but any farmer riot receiving his copy would be well advised to write in for one. He will find it of real value, riot only in the completion of his tax returns, but also as on aid in keeping pro- per farm records. The Right Ag?“ In his oft-quoted comments on how r formcr zhculd pick a wife, Premier Jonas docs not appcor to have touched upon thc equally important qucsticri of when he should sct about picking licr. Should h: do so in the ardour of his youth, or wait until y:ars bring more discretion and stability? Into this thorny prcblcrri, where cvcn the Prcmi:r feared to tread, an official of the Or-‘ario Department of Agriculture has stepped boldly. He believes it to be best for haters to marry early, and gives his teosons. A most important one is that a sturdy wife is esscntinl to a gcod farmer. Working out in the field, he cannot drop into a restaurant for meals. Further, he nccds a wifc to look altar the fowl and many OlIlCf‘ chores which naturally fall within the purview of the farm housewife. There is q utilitarian as well as romantic aspect to rural marriage. This, indeed, is precisely what our Premier had maintained, but the Ontario of- ficial oes further. If a young man has a farm, a wife will help him make a go of it. Hc is likely to spend most of his life on it, and there is no merit in waiting until he is 30 before he weds. A Tragic Syiiiliol Th; tragedy of pre-war pacifism was sym- boliz in tlic career of the late Lord Baldwin, as th depicted in the London News Chronicle: "Stanley Baldwin was the apostle of ‘Safety First.’ He lived to see that compact political pliilosopliywvnaihed to smitliereens. He wanted to lrup this country out of war at all costs; but [is policy of escapism led irresistibly to WU?! ‘ "There were moments during the Italian in- lop’ qt Avbysslnlo when lro sow tho light but to cliiirllpi foiled liim. "Si" static-moment of ‘appalling frank- Munich he gave voice to the reflection in his maiden speech as a member of the House of Lords that it was 'iu:t as though the finger af God liad drawn a rainbow ccrcss the sky and liad ratified again His Covenant with the chil- dren of man.’ Aftcr that lie never spoke again on public affairs." ' i — HJIIURIAL NUISIIS - At least one provincial legislature, that of Quebec, is turning its attention to the problem cf housing. The high regard in which the fam- ily is held in Qucbcc has helped to focus the government's attention on the housing situation. x A’ k W Hon. Dr. W. J. P. MacMillan, O.B.E., holds a record as the head of any local organization, over a qurirtci- of u century, as president of the Children's Aid Society, and now has entered upon his 28th your.

I i i I The First English Parliament met this date I269, consisting oftwo citizens from each city, two burgcsscs from cach borough, and rep- rcscntofivcs of cathedral and parochial clergy. The archbisliops, abbcfs, earls and greater bor- ons were summoned personally, and all tenants- in-chief were summoned by sheriffs or bailiffs. The Lords Spiritual and Temporal voted sub- sidies for their own order, and Clergy and Com- mons determined their rcspcclive grants. The separation of Lords and Commons info two chambers took place not later-than I341. In the past all aircrew mcmbcrs of the R. C.

Human nriturc being what it is, few persons would obicct to a continuation of the practice. But Ottawa seems to think that people ore not too dissatis-fied—for tho present at least. The Gov- ernment has received suggestions, however, that now might be a good time to reduce somc of the indirect tox levies. Collections from these are close to what they were at the war’: end and the imposition of the new 25 per cent tax on certain goods as‘ a moans of discouraging public spending will bring the total even higher. It is a fair bet that most of the benefits that the pub- lic will derive will come in this field- It will be a fairly complex budget in I948.

The close study o_t the weather. the building up of long records, the interest In other factors, such as solar activity. which may have a bearing on weather conditions. all are grad- ually making meteorology a re- spectable science. with much to offer. It has a long way to go. however. before it becomes a re- liable instrument. day in and day out. One reason for this, without question is that in bath Canada and the ed States, not enough observati ' are made each day to give complete piqture of the weather. It is now known. too, that conditions tens of thousands of feet above the earth have a strong influence on surface wea. ther. It ls still very difficult to get reliable and accurate informa- tion by instruments taken aloft by balloon. Even so. however. with more information, the task of col- lating it all into any sort of fore- cast. in the limited i'me available would be almost insuperable.

John McLen- rian was sent out by the Church oi’ Scotland to minister to the numerous immigrants who hsd came from the Highlands and Is- lands of Scotland. Although Mr. Urquhart (1800) had lbeen a minister of the national church, this was the first official recog- nition of the needs of the colon- lsta on Prince Edward Island by that church. Mr. McLennan, who was a man o! excellent culture. genial manner and great perse- verance. miriir-tered not only to the people of Belfast. but also to the settlers of Wood Islands. Georgetown and Murray Harbour. He also preached occasionally at Charlottetown. Cherry Valley, New Iiondon and other places. thus bearing in conjunction with the other ministers in the Province the growing demands on time‘ and strength. caused by Lhe districts oecoming more thickly populat- cd.

According to the Italian ao- count. which is written by a ‘be- lieve it or not." tax-Fascist. laur- iialist. Luigi Romersa, Rommel was badly wounded in the left. temple on the Western Front. in July. 1944. when his car was ma- chine-gunned by Allied planes. While in a. hospital at.
