f h’JquI-by-u-ui-m The importnnco to farmers of content ettttet to improve their herds of nettle and the Mutton results which follow attention given to'teatintr end improving the quality of Canadian purxshrxsd cattle, was emphasized by speakers ot the recent meeting of the Waterloo County Holstein Breeders' Association which bu iuat concluded on encouraging year. It was pointed out that the demand from‘ United States for Canadian cattle is steadily in- creasing and that prospects for the current rear! are particularly bright. The marked improve- ment in the quality of Canadian pure-bred cattle of late years has increased the demand for cattle from this and other districts and it was stated that had the stock been available another '10,000 worth of cattle could have been disposed of. It was noted by one speaker that 'ihnditions in the Eastern States are not as suitable for raising cattle as in this province which was one reason why Canadian cattle were in demand. iiiiimovmc QUALITY or uvn s'rocx l l m WAnnwo comm-n l. It is interesting to observe that the records) of the Canadian Holstein Breeders' Association) show 22,476 registrations and that during the' past year exports to the United States showed a marked increase over the previous year. Efforts to increase the quality of live stock in this and other cou'nties cannot but redound to the benefit of the farmers and add to their income at a time when prices of other farm produce generally are at a low figure. for the month of December, 1931, disclose the as th fact that citizens of the town are making wide- would spread use of the facilities offered by this in- and e stirs tion, the patronage of which has markedly anott in ed during the past year or two. In the look. final month of the year, an unusually large . - number of books were taken out by both adults I and juveniles, the patronage accorded showing . - a marked advance over the same month last d year, This is indicated by the fact that the plowi local circulation in the adult section for the a rec month was 4210 as compared with 3,780 for December, 1930, while in the children's depart- ' ment the increase was correspondingly large. corm The fact that facilities such as those body offered by the Wateloo Library are available, on it if taken advantage of , will be of real assistance to them, especially those of the younger genera-l 1 tion who desire to get on in life. The Library such with its many thousands of volumes, represen- ‘optin tative of every field of activity, affords a special hear opportunity of improving one's knowledge as'ers F. well as offering entertainment and diversion in' the fiction and lighter reading to be found on its [ shelves. ‘been l MARKED INCREASE IN PATRONAGE _, l ACCORDED WATERLOO LIBRARY 1 Every effort has been made by succeeding Boards, in co-operation with the Librarian, to build up an institution which is becoming in- creasingly useful in meeting a genuine need in the community and it will be gratifying alike to the Library Board and citizens who are sup- porting the institution through the yearly grants made, that it is so wel1.serving its mis- Sion if: the municipality.

F. Thiele, and its activities have been marked by the cordial cooperation of the bandsmen and citizens while its weekly concerts thoughout the summer months again attracted large numbers and were a source of enjoyment to music lovers. It was noted that Waterloo is becoming the centre of music activities. especially in the field of band music, in the province and Dominion, and organization of bands and orchestras is being encouraged in many centres. A New York millionaires residence was en- tered by men who represented themselves as hamburgers bearing gin, and robbed of $300,000 in jewels. And they didn't lave the gin either.

I every 1m {notable Gordon Selfridge believes in London. The white-haired merchant, new the owner of one of London's largest shores. ha? @mggenced work on an extension scheme which will make his _ shop the biggest in the world. The project will take eight years for completion and will involve the expenditure of about $25,000,000. At a time when there is a tendency on the part of some industrialists to sit down and moan, the cour- age and enterprise of this merchant prince are lin the beat tradition of the great firm. Not that he is optimistic as to the worWa recovery from depression: "Frankly, I see no sign of any sun- rise just yet," he admits. "Germany is in a bad way. . . . In the United States they are bluer than we are. We are better off than most-- better than.most of us realize." He declares that his building scheme is an indication of the company's eoufld4snee in Britain, London, and the British Empire: “London is not lacking in confidence for the future." Meanwhile more people are crowding his shop, and buying less than they did a year or two ago; he will make room for the still larger crost he knows will come-and he will wait for the sunrise. It looks as though Macaulay’s famous New Zealander would be foolish to book his passage for London and expect to view any ruins there for at least another eight years, comments the New Out- look.
