Total ages of the guests who were greeted- by co-ordinating council president Mrs. George Rudderham was something like 4,000 years but this appalling total did nothing to detract from the vigor with which the entertainment program was enjoyed or the meal appreciated. The meal was a culinary masterpiece of roast turkey with an attractive variety of condiments, prepared by the members of the Co-ordinating Council from food largely donated by local business firms. The guests, received by Council President MrsT Rudderham and the ladies, -included: Mrs. M. Hedstrom, Mrs. H. Humphreys, Mrs. Edith Comer, Mrs. Charles Kingston, Mrs. M. Mc-Leod. Mrs. S. Cox, Mrs. Smee-ton, Mrs. M. Wynne, Alderman and Mrs. George B. Casey, Mrs. R Alderman George Casey announced that arrangements had been made to print membership cards for the "Over 70" group and that these would be mailed shortly to all who had attended the dinner. Mr. Casey moved that a membership card be sent to Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King "because he has reached the distinguished ase of 70." The gathering agreed. At suggestion of Sheriff M. M. Stephens, the guests observed a moment of silence in tribute to those who had passed on during tljg last year. Mr. Stephen also read the names of a number of senior citizens who were unable to attend. Community singing and voc-'l solas by Mrs. Ralph Smith and Mr.i. Merrill and a recitation by Mrs. Percy Bond rounded out the program. Mrs. J. S. Black, entertainment convener, was accompanist and provided piano music during the dinner.

Mr, ' Coldwell, got to talking about free enterprise in a critical way. He Hid: "Free enterpriae i an attractive theory, but it just does not work. It promises security and freedom to all, and leaves everything but profits to chance." A good many people will think he must have been talking about 1 Socialism or State Capitalism and , not Free Enterprise. But the repot t i wy not. So let's look at what he , claims. 1 We can agree that the theory of free enterprwe is attractive, but ' how about it not working? The Socialists say the United States and Canada are the last ttrongholds of free enterprise. Well, are ; e people in any other country more secure or freer? Who's got a system anywhere working any better? Everything but profits I rtir (I ! r. i si left to chance? Seems to mc tint tlie only places where piurits AREN'T idt tu dunce i m . juutnc-where the State u; everything. Nobody guanntcc profits to free enterprise companies. They have to scramble, think and work to serve and please you and me the consumers else they lose trade and go broke. Those that please us make a profit. Fair enough? Govern-mcnt companies don't have to do that. They 6ct up monopolies and say to the public: "You re coming to us. If you don't like it, what are you going to do about it?" And they an set their price to show a profit. Quite a profit, too as we find out if we go to buy any Christ-cias cheer from certain government tores!
