They Appreciate K.LT. Club Letters

L/Sgt. Sid Wilkins, who was wounded on “D'’ Day and is now in hospital in England, in reply- ing to letters written to him by the KIT Club, says in part:

BeefCalf Club Exhibition and Sale

About 500 spectators watched H. Kk. Wilson, Lacombe Experi mental Station, and John Wilson jr., select the Grand Champion steer from calves shown by the

“Yes, your letters are very Carstairs, Madden, West Dids- welcome over here, You can bury and Grainger Beef Calt

Clubs. This honor was won by aroan shorthorn weighing {40 pounds, shown by Lloyd Halstead of the Grainger club, He bought this steer when it was 5 months old, from Walter McCollister, Dalroy. This steer was a marvel of general balance, smoothness and finish, and brought the top price of the sale, when sold to Gordon Booth of Carstairs Meat Market, for 30'; cents a pound

A Hereford steer, shown by Loris Walsh, Madden club, was awarded Reserve Champion. It weighed in at 860 pounds and was sold for 21 cents a pound.

June Klinck won first in the Didsbury club, with a Hereford; it was sold to Safeways for 17 cents a pound,

Mary Sheehan, Carstairs, won first in that club with her Here- ford calf, which sold to Safeways for 15c.

Mr. Hugh McPhail, Olds Dist- rict Agriculturist, supervised these clubs.

Carstairs Board of Trade spon- sored this event, which was handled as efficiently as the Cal- gary Bull Sale.

Prices, after the Champion and Reserve were sold, ranged from 13 to 17, with handyweight butch- ers weighing from 700 to 900, being favorites with the buyers.

Second in Didsbury was Don Robertson, sold to Safeways for 15.75. Mike Haener, 3rd, Short- horn, sold to Katchen Bros., for 1414, cents.

Don Robertson won Ist prize in the showmanship event, which was donated by Archie Boyce.

Local leaders of the Beef Calf Club, C. E. Reiber and Law's Drug Store, donated prizes for this club,

Other buyers were Carstairs Cold Storage Lockers, Burns, Calgary Livestock Co-op., Kirby’s Meat Market - Didsbury, Adams Wood & Weiller.

starve a soldier and make him sleep in a slit trench, in the mud, cold and rain; he grumbles, but he takes that as part of his job. But, when the mail comes in and is handed out, and you see a fel- low walk away without any, he takes a beating far worse than anything you can do to him physically”.

The KIT Club is writing to all the boys overseas, and needs more help to write the letters. After reading the above, what about it?

Gnr. Lloyd Cipperley, who was also wounded on ‘‘D’’ Day, writes the KIT Club that he is on his feet again.

An Editorial Voting for or Against ?

Excerpts from Edmonton Bulletin

The confusion existing in some voters’ minds, with three major political parties campaigning for votes on August 8, can be settled by looking at the record.

With all kindness to the many excellent can- didates running for all parties the issue in this 1944 election is whether the Manning government is to be returned to office or defeated.

Premier Ernest Manning is young, able, honest and efficient. In fact his handling of Alberta affairs is the envy of every other province in Canada, Alberta has the most advanced social legislation--free cancer treatment, free T.B. treat-

ment, free V.D. treatment and free hospitalization for all maternity cases. No other province provides such health services.

Alberta’s school system is far in advance of every other province and is being further advanced

The C.C,.F. Stand!

. the Co-operative Commonwealth Iederation bleieves that Canada policy should be based first on the fundamental national interest of the Can- adian people, as well as on their interest in the outcome of war. Canada should be prepared to defend her own shores, but her assistance over- s2a3 should be limited to ecomomic aid and must not include conscription of

manpower or the sending of any expeditionary foree. att

“"2. DEFENCE OF CANADA: Reasonable provision should be made for the defence of Canadian shores. Volunteers for home defence should not be required to sign also for overseas service. This practice, now being followed, is unwarranted and should be abandoned.’

"3. NO MILITARY PARTICIPATION OV ERSEAS: Any attempt to send a force abroad would rob us of the manpower necessary for the defence of our shores and for home production, would gravely endanger national unity, would threaten our civil liberties and democratic institutions, and would ultimately lead to conscription.’ ”’

A FBARED SHORTAGE OF COAL

All those who have to do with coal in Canada, including the Gev- eroment Coal Coatrollers, have warned us that there will probably be a shortage of coal this coming winter,

If it is uncomfortable to live in a cold home ino the city, it is still more uncomfortable to live in acold home on these bleak prairies. We are told, however, that coal users them- selves can help to alleviate the ceal Situation by taking delivery of a good deal of their winter supply of coal this summer, preferably now.

Elevator Companies maintain coal sheds at most country points, If farmers take delivery of their coal now, these coal sheds would soon be emptied and new supplies can be rushed in to fillthem. This would empty the storage places on the mines, and the operators, therefore, could proceed with more coal dig- ging this summer while labour is available, and when the railroads can make easier, quicker and more certain deliveries than they can during the cold freezing winter months, I venture to suggest, therefore, to all farmers, that those who will need coal this coming winter, should strain every effort to haul as much of their requirements as possible now, during these sum- mer months,
