Recipient of Banquet A very happy occurrence took place during the Edmonton U.F.W.A. The delegates and visi- convention. tors from the Macleod constituency gathered together in honor of Mrs. B. F. Kiser who retired this year from official service. Mrs, Kiser was pre- sented with a purse, Mrs. McDonald of Brant, reading the presentation address in which she referred to the appreciation of the members of the Macleod constituency for Mrs. Kisers faithful work in their interests and the affectionate regard in which she is held. Mrs Kiser has for a great many years been a strohg force in U. F.A. and U.F.W.A. work. She was vice president of the provincial U.F. W.A. and last year was lady director on the U.F.A. board. This year she is retiring as director, her place be- ing taken by Mrs. Dwelle of Nanton. Previous to the presentation tg Mrs. Kiser, a get-together dinner was held in the Hudson Bay banquetting hall, at which the delegates, visitors and friends from the Macleod constituency foregathered. There were present at the dinner the federal representative, Mr. Coote, and four out of the six provincial members from the constituency. All these gen- tlemen made short and interesting speeches. In addition, each delegate was introduced to the banqueters by H. B. Macleod, chairman, and gave a two minute talk on the activities of his own local. gt;This.

HIGH RIVER, merely the pivotal point, by which the quality and standards of the rural ests are interwoven. On the face of it, one might say that any support to the town given by farmers and ranchers, is a free will offering they are peculiarly in- But deeper obligation. Every progressive step in the town reacts favorably on the countryside, increasing its value. Every creditable institution in High River, owes much of its existence to the country and has an influence on surrounding rural values. A live town near at hand is an asset to any district. High River needs the people of the country socially, financially and for their morale. The country people. also need the town. To maintain and extend existing assets should be the pride and pur- pose of all of us. Amongst towns- people one hears: I pay my taxes. I owe no man. Yes, but does the speaker also put his neighbor in the way of paying his taxes? In the city a man merges'indistinguishably into the mass. In the town he is a per- sonality. with distinct obligations. Every business concern with a pay- roll is of great consequence and mer- its support. It means thousands of dollars of added strength and it means human material. Every ume a town loses an individual, a family or a firm it loses much which would naturally circulate throughout the town. In the matter of loyal support, the business concerns themselves are the ezampies. Do they deal - with the other merchants or do they belittle the stock of brother merchants by do ing personal shopping elsewhere? No more insidious germ can spread through a. community than the con- viction that businessmen themselves, are not loyal to each other. Let merchants examine themselves also as to the quality of their service. No one is so carping as to demand that they meet on exact terms the products of great houses. Turnover is slower, buying power less. On the other hand, the customer cannot afford to be an utter philanthropist. His money comes hard, he hag to grow it. Do merchants value steady faithful customers sufficiently as to extend little favors and courtesies? It is the little favors which wakens surest response. On the merchants side. Local business places within the last few years have doubled their efforts to present attractive goods. Their out- lay has been heavy. Their rewards not always in proportion. They swallow rebuffs, experience, disap- pointment and carry on. They carry customers over bad spells only to ind these same customers paying cash out of town. The rock on which many merchants have foundered is in extending credit to those who know no gratitude. Small town integrity is a grave matter in this age, when motor car- eat up the miles and people live on the wing. Undoubtedly a town, even in the shadow of a city, may flourish and keep its individuality. Byt to do this requires more conscious effort than formerly and concerted action on the part of al to whom the town has surroundings are judged.

The personality of Donald Murray made a strong appeal. He spoke on Canada Among the Nations and in adventurous. language. pictured, the. roaming Indians gt;of the plains, and our ever-exploratory pioneers, pene- trating first to eastern Canada, then ever farther westward. The traders blazing the trail for the lumberman, rancher, the farmer, all men of stur- dy and heroic type giants among men. This is our ancestry. Our right to be reeognized is through the strength of the manhood which has produced us, and our virility amongst nations. The speaker next referred our developing resources in every corner of the land, of our status in the League of Nations, our establish- ment of Ambassadors at other ca tals, And.as yet. we are. only co mencing. Afar off we hear the tread of nations yet to be. While the decision of the judges was being prepared, a piano solo by Robert Sharpe and selections by the High School orchestra furnished a Pleasing variation. The school is to be congratulated on springing their or- chestra full-fleged upon the town. It is an achievement which reflects great credit on the young musicians.
