Well folks, another yesr has rolled round and the Legion Polio Drive is now under way. The Legion Canvassers will be calling on you again so we ask for your splendid support ag- ain. We must give thanks that this dread disease has not been so bad the last couple of years by giving generously to help thoee who have suffered so much and so long to get help and relief dur’ng the next few years as it takes years of work and perserver- ance to be able to take their place in the community again. All canvassing is done volun- tarily, also most of the trans- porting of patients for treat- ments, etc, This is a very wor- thy project so thanks for your support over the rast yer"s.

I would like to point ont a few things about magazine peddlers. They have no! any right to sell any in the Carbon,

Drumheller or East Coulee:

territory using the Legion name as sponsors as we turn- ed them down at this district Zone meeting as we think the Students Drive is enough for this district so we ask your support to turn away these men if they approach this are2 again as we think they do more harm than good to this area. If you need to know more about this matter con- tact me at any time. Polio Drive dates are Jan, 15th to Feb. 28th for 1958. Campaign sponsors are Rev. J. Roberts end Chas. Cave.

joice that so great a glory of the;color from among those of which

human race has appeared.”

Cosmic energy that can never be destroyed, the laws of gravity, the deepest facts of celestial phys- ics—Newton grasped them all in his hand. He invented the

matical method of the calculus, which he called “fluxions,”’” be- cause the exisiting mathematics

could not serve his needs.

One of his greatest trail-blazing achievements was the discovery that ordinary sunlight, which we think of as white, is actually com- posed of many colors, which can be separated and seen when re- flected. Interesting, but what of it? Actually, the discovery of the colored spectrum opened the way to the whole science of modern optics. For later investigators be-

| gan to suspect, and later proved,

that on each side of the visible spectrum, beyond the red at one edge and the violet at the other, lies a universe of invisible light, or energy, consisting of waves of different lengths. Thus we stum- bled on x-rays, radio waves, sun- burn rays, gamma rays, ‘death’ rays, the whole assortment of ra- diant energy on which so much of modern life depends.

We don’t know exactly what set Newton to thinking about the spectrum, Perhaps it was a rain- bow, perhaps the mystery of why an apple is red. At any rate, his method was simple. He merely held a glass prism in a ray of sunlight. The broken-up colors of light appeared on the opposite wall of the room. So “simple” is

silly question which he asked when he saw the falling apple: Why doesn’t it fall up? That question unlocked for him the sec-

| ret of gravitation.

Color, Newton demonstrated, does not exist in the colored ob- ject but only in the ability of that object to reflect that particular

Visual aids in teaching develop child's thinking

The North Ward Home and School Association held its regu- lar meeting Monday, Nov. 18, and the evening wa.. highlighted by a talk on the use of film strips in the school. The principal, Miss K. Robb, explained the advantages of this visual aid .when used in conjunction with lessons, not as a replacement for them. This is one of the new methods of teach- ing with whiclf many parents are not familian A sample film was shown, with Miss Robb describing how it would be presented and then followed up with a discussion among the pupils.

Visual aids, whether in films, books or on TV, should be an in- centive to a child to use his im- agination in deveeloping his own ideas rather than merely accepting another’s point of view. Too much looking and not enough thinking could result in a lazy mind.—The Enterprise, Portage la _ Prairie,

Dear Bonnie:

For the next few weeks, I would like to talk to you about Produc- tion Staff in Play Production. The first thing I would do is make a dozen copies of the following and paste a copy in each prompt book as well as on the board in the re- hearsal room for the production staff to see,

—Ask no favors of the Director.

—Forego engagements that in- terfere with rehearsals.

—Be on time for each entrance. |

—Remember a walk-on is

important as a lead.

Do my job and let others do

theirs.

Remain on stage area

* dismissed,

—Blame only myself for errors. Keep off the set except when performing my duty. |

—Accept praise and construc-}|

tive criticism graciously.

—Remove costume and make-

up before leaving the theatre. |

-Respect all properties and}

costumes and tools of the} theatre and handle them cordingly.

It is an old army saying that) it takes three men behind the lines to keep one man out front fight-| ing. The same might be said of theatre work. If impossible to se-| cure three then at least two should be planned for. If quick

as |

until

ac-

should be three workers on scen- | ery, one or two on props, one on curtain, two for lights, one for sounds, one for special effects, two or more for make-up super-| vision, two for costumes, as well | as two prompters and one call boy girl. Of course it depends on

play, being a small cast and few | props, less may be required, But take thought about the other plays to be presented on the same pro- gram and they may need everyone of the above-mentioned people to put the evening over in smart style, Audiences resent having to wait more than 10 minutes be- tween plays, hence if good organ- ization is planned and plenty of helpers to carry it out, everyone will be pleased,

Many directors do not feel the need for helpers until about two then into hurry. In

get a great

ier, these helpers should be per- given plenty of time to plan, or-|

the needed work, Stage man- ager should accept the responsi-| bility of everything that happens} behind the curtain line except di-| recting and acting, with complete | charge of stage hands and me- chanical staff. This includes stage carpenters, slage crew, designer) of scenery, painters, electricians, wardrobe mistress, properties mis-

in at castings, early run-throughs | when discussions are underway, collecting all books at the end of each rehearsal and mark his copy with ALL stage business.

Then he calls his staff together for consultation and making of

| backstage crew and

| submit

work. He should make the con- tacts for the theatre, use of re- hearsal space, work schedules, consult with director when neces- sary, and any special properties for rehearsals (steps, ramps, un- usual properties, etc.)

He examines the theatre stage, noting the equipment and. what extra will be needed, and then proceeds with the committees to find them or make them. All bills and expense vouch- ers should be authorized by him and bear his signature before pay-

|ment is made. He co-ordinates the

trains the stage crew for their job for the night of production,

He takes over from the director after the last dress rehearsal and runs the performance while the director sits» out front as a mem- ber of the audience and*gets fur- ther experience in what he should do or not do the next time he di- rects a play.

If the play needs a designer for scenery, it will be necessary for this person to read the play and sketches to the Director for his approval. The lighting man should also be included in these discussions as the best of scenery can .be made more effective and and take on a magical effect with the use of good front lighting, or be almost ruined by poor lighting.

The lighting man should also read the play, make a lighting cue sheet and prepare for any special effects needed, order gela- tines well in advance, Gelatines can be secured from Mallabar Cos- tumers, 375 Hargreave St., Win- nipeg, in sheets 20'’x 24” and in any one of a hundred different colors.

The Property person has charge of securing all-stage properties and overseas personal and hand properties, He, too, reads the play, making a list of furniture, drapes, cushions, vases, lamps, etc., mark- ing their location on his floor plan, He then, at a rehearsal, goes over the list of personal and hand

props and emphasizes that each,

cast member should accept some responsibility in helping secure them. Some properties may have to be made, For instance, in “Ten Little Indians”, ten Indian figures of plaster of Paris have to be made and assurance is needed that when they fall from the mantle during the play, they will not break. This may require some ex- perimentation, If fire-arms are re- quired for a play, a permit from the police is required and should

be secured early, as a certain amount of rehearsal is needed to familiarize the actor with the

handling of a gun or revolver. If a toy one is used during the re- hearsal then, suddenly, at -dress rehearsal, a real one is given to the cast member. The change in size, weight and manipulation of- ten results in confusion, And if there are three or four guns need- ed in the same play, more care is needed,

The Prop-man marks the floor with water paint or tape for ac- curacy of position of furniture so that props will always be placed in the same place and at the same angle. This makes for better tim- ing of any show,

A prop-table covered with white newsprint located in one

plans to execute the back stage

wing of the theatre just off one of

help of his}

the stage entrances, on which is placed all props needed, aids the speedy handling of their use. Out- lined and the name under each prop helps the Props person to tell at a glance if all props have been returned to their place after being used. It can be a major ca- tastrophe if they are not in their right place at the beginning of each show. This makes Props a very busy, important person.

The Wardrobe mistress, popu- larly known as Maw, keeps in con- tact with the stage manager, di- rector, designer and cast during rehearsal periods. Early in re- hearsal, she should get the meas- urements of cast members and plan the general scheme of cos- tuming after color requirement is established. About three weeks previous to performance, a fitting of costurnes should be arranged, and any changes can then be made and ready for the first rehearsal. At dress rehearsal or when stage is available, a check should be made on hem-lines especially if the dress is modern, If every day dresses call for a short length, lengthen the dress on stage about three inches.

The Makeup artist should, consultation with the Director, have several make-up rehearsals scheduled, giving every actor the opportunity to learn to do his own make-up, Since he knows the character he is building, he should also know more than anyone what it calls for by way of make-up.

The Makeup chairman should check the make-up box, order sup- plies and be ready at all times to instruct and give assistance with the more difficult make-ups and less-experienced members of the cast, They should supervise all ac- tivities in the make-up room and check the make-up before curtain time, Between acts it is often nec- essary to make some slight alter- ations after being out front and checking against the lights as each actor comes on stage.

Sound effects and.Special effects operators should attend early re- hearsals to find out what effects and what sound is required, These should be secured and made avail- able at early rehearsals to give the cast a chance to play to them, as such effects affect timing and other parts of the show.

The stage manager’ should check with all his chairmen every week to keep things rolling, with each chairman being expected to secure a committee to work with him on his special project. The secretary of your organization may have to be on hand to record names of additional people who came out to read and then volun- teered to participate in other phases, They should be made use of as soon as possible and as of- ten as possible thus ensuring their continued interest,

Next week, the procedure of opening a show to give a profes- sional touch will be mentioned, Watch for it, In the meantime? have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Give my re- gards to your cast and tell them I'll be with them soon.

Sincerely yours,

A really good shot must be the young lad whose photo appears in the Humboldt Journal, Sask., which states: Pictured above is 12-year-old Clayton Cameron, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ron Cameron, Humboldt, shown with two deer he bagged last week while hunt- ing south of Maple Creek. Inci- dentally, at press time, Ron’s fa- ther was still looking for his deer.

Looking for something in Win- nipeg recently may have been a worry for a town councillor, ac- cording to the Verity district news correspondent for the Wood- worth Times, Man. She writes: The man of the house is away to a municipal convention in Winni- peg this week, He very* thought- fully took the electric razor with him but he forgot the cord to op- erate it with. So if you see a bearded man get off the bus to- night, it isn’t a Hutterite, it’s Councillor Forest,

But what is this—may well be asked of poultry keepers. The Touchwood Times of Punnichy, Sask,, tells us that a reader has written to enquire what makes hens sneeze, She has 120 hens and half of them are sneezing. Infor- mation will be appreciated. We think maybe they have hay. fever —comments the Times.

And speaking of Sneezing — here’s a little squib going the rounds of our papers, The scene is a United States Immigration office. “Sneeze?” queried the im- migration officer, “Is that your Chinese name?” “No,” said the Oriental, “that Merican name. Chinese named Ah Chou”,

Well, Unemployment Insurance was not on the books when these good neighbors were born, Cele- brating birthday anniversaries in the gay ninety class recently were Mrs. A, Stuckey of the Hillside district, Sask., 91—Robert Pren- dergast of Condor Corner, Alta., 92—George Elliott formerly of Cory, Sask., now living in Saska- toon, 93—-and Mrs. Mary Harper of Calgary, 95,

Speaking of birthdays, the Out- look, Sask., notes that little Nona Snustead of the Strongfield dis- trict, entertained 11 tiny friends on the occasion of her fourth birthday recently. Nona greeted her friends by asking, “What did you bring me?"

“NEIGHBORLY NEWS ~

A CBC program aired every Sunday morning

At 10:00 Central Time PREPARED BY C. F. GREENE

in the Olds Gazette, people have short memories it says, but the best we ever heard was about a neighbor in the James River district whose wife asked

him to bring her something. He |

didn’t quite hear. it but thinking she wanted something from the store, just took off. He got to the store and asked them to phone his wife to ask her what she want- ed, Imagine his surprise when she said she wanted a pail of water.

That husband-and-wife story will probably amuse these West- ern couples just recently celebrat- ing news-worthy wedding anniver- saries.

Well, neighbors, Christmas is fast approaching, and we see by the Camrose Canadian, Alta., that at a meeting of the local Cham- ber of Commerce, it was agreed that Dr. Bernie Clarke should see if Santa Claus wouldecome to Camrose in a helicopter, Tenta-

tive plans are that St, Nick will)

arrive at the John Russell School grounds in a helicopter on Decem- ber 16th. He will talk to the boys and girls for a few minutes, then

take off again to visit other points,

Another pre-Christmas story appears in the Lloydminster

Times—its North Bend district re- porter writing: One of Santa’s helpers was phoning the mother of tots for ideas and asked Mrs. Hugh Patmore what she thought Laurie would like for Christmas. “Y’ll ask him,” Phyllis replied, and, turning from the phone, she said, “Laurie, what would you like for Christmas?” Her three-year-old son thought a bit and then replied, “well, it doesn’t matter as long as it isn't-‘broke’.” Mrs. Patmore lat- er explained that Laurie has a wonderful ability to take things apart but is not so good at get-

ting them together again, and then decides that they are “broke”,

alternately | flouhdering along the edge of a| third, there appears a gleam of light—the same light that appear- ed to the wise men and the shep- herds nearly two thousand years} ago—the light that can lead- the world to faith, hope and charity. | The Christmas message of ‘Peace | on earth, goodwill toward men’ | is a gleam of light that will shine forever.

A little boy in Innisfail, Alta., is looking for a certain Christmas | gift. The Province states: If you!

your pet cat and dog within a matter of hours, you would make} a big fugs; and that is exactly | other day when his pets disappeared. Martin puts each visitor including his relatives, through a stiff ques- tioning about his lost pets. The cat was gray and the dog was one of those toy-sized models in brown, They both were happy and had a genuine love for two-year- old Martin ... . which adds mys- tery to the disappearance of the animals. If you find and return either or both of the pets, little Martin Grant will deeply appr- ciate your kindness,

Christmas makes one think of Turkeys—and we learn from the Hanna Herald, Alta., that on the farm of Fred Doering, southwest of Hanna, his ‘good wife has a turkey hen which produced an egg on November 27. The egg is in the Herald office as “proof of the pudding”.

We are not told whether they served pudding, but according to the acoebenk Weekly News, | Sask., the fowl supper in the Van- tage district thiS year was unique in one respect — all the waiters were men—polite, courteous and efficient. Decked out in white shirts and black bow ties, their department left nothing to be de- sired, as they served a delicious supper to approximately 300 guests. It is still not known just where they learned or acquired this culinary art, but it is safe to} say that they never made it known to their wives,

The top award in an interna- tional competition of weed control

year-old agricultural representa- tive from Saskatchewan, it was announced by T. V. Beck, Weed Specialist with the Saskatchewan | Department of Agriculture. j | Don Webster, of Elbow, was! honored in Des Moines, Iowa, at | the annual meeting of the North | ;Central Weed Control Conference. | The weed control program he and jhis agriculture district board or-| ganized at Elbow was judged the | best among 14 states and the | three prairie provinces. Mr. Web- ster organized the Elbow weed |control unit as recently as 1956. His winning entry was the first} ever sent from Saskatchewan

| |

| The chairman of the awards | sub-committee, William Kircher, of St. Paul, Minn., says Mr. Web-

ster’s record is an impressive one. Webster, he says, was chosen from among several exceptionally | worthy extension workers. |

The weed conference award was} made for educational activities aimed at controlling weeds and woody plants. Weed control dem- onstrations, meetings, tours, news stories, programs, exhibits and displays were considered.

Attendance at the Elbow meet- ings was exceptionally high, ac- cording to Vic Beck, Saskatche- wan director of the weed confer- ence. He says the interest of El- bow district farmers in cutting down weed populations brought the international award to the dis- trict. Mr. Beck says Mr. Web- ster’s win was particularly im- pressive as he was competing with some U.S. extension men who do nothing but weed control.

Mr. Webster says he believes he won because of the co-operation | of his weed committee and Elbow district farmers in cultivating and spraying a large acreage

Red Cross water safety

The Red “Cross Water Safety Programme has enjoyed its best year since its inception in 1946. Thanks to the tireless work of gome 150 Red Cross trained in- atructor and leaders who, for the most part ,are volunteers.

“More than 17,000 pupils from 622 towns were enrolled in 512 classes at 108 beaches, pools, and camps scattered over the entire Province, Instructors gave over 9,000 hours time to their charges.

The faithful diligence of these qualified instruetors is amply proven .by the fact that 8,738 (more than half) of those joining classes passed some form of swim- ming test. There were 2,898 who received a partial beginner report card and a further 2,994 passed the full beginner test. This means that 5,892 former non swimmers are now on their way to becom- ing swimmers. Many others miss- ed the tests for various reasons.

In the Junior Swimmer class 1,571 passed, followed by 472 ad- vanced juniors; 415 intermediates, 135 advanced intermediates and 253 seniors

The total number who have benefited from this Red Cross ser- vice now total 115,071. Miss Katheryn Ferguson of Weyburn, became the 100,000th pupil and she and her instructress, were guests of the Roughrider Football Club at a game in Regina, Prem- ier T. C. Douglas presented the two girls with commemorative jacket crests.

In spite of the continued warn- ings through all mediums of press, radio and television, 47 persons lost their lives in the waters of | the Province. This loss is offset to | some extent by the 27 Water res- cues performed by the Red Cross instructors.

That the instructors teaching efforts do pay off, is borne out by the life saying act of a daughter who, when her mother was stran- gled by her neck scarf which be- came caught in a grain auger, promptly freed her unconscious mother and applied artificial res- piration successfully. The daugh- ter was taught in a water safety class in 1954. In 1957, at age 16,/| she remembered what to do,

This is only one of the numer- ous rescues performed by young people who have been pupils of Red Cross

The Water Safety programme of Red Cross in this Province has proven to be a worthwhile en- deavour and worthy of all the support, both physical and finan- cial that the public can give. There is always a need for com- petent swimmers over 16 years of age who could be trained by the Society for service as instructors in any community where safe swimming places exist. :

Communities and individuals de- siring further information on the programme should write to Red Cross, Regina. They can also se- cure specific information on any subject pertaining to Water Safe- ty from swimming pool construc-| tion to ways and means of build- ing a beach,

Instructor training courses plan- ned for 1958 are:

DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIES AND LABOUR

THE DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIES AND LABOUR plays an important role in @ economy of Alberta. It makes a significant contribution in maintaining an industrial climate favorable to Alberta's progress.

THE BOARD OF INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS administers the ALBERTA LABOUR ACT which applies +o all employees and \ pag except farm labourers and domestic servants. It is made: up of six arts:

JOURS OF WORK—The General hours of work shall not exceed more than eight hours a day or 48 hours a week. In Calgary, Edmonton, Lethbridge and Medicine Hat however, there is provided an eight hour day and 44 hour week limit. In all areas daily limit may be exceeded by one hour but if the weekly limit of 44 hours is exceeded, overtime rates must be paid.

MINIMUM WAGES—The Board fixes a minimum wage and no employee may

work for less without the approval of the Board.

LABOUR WELFARE—An employer in any industry is required to give his em- 2 ployees one week's vacation with™pay after one year service and two weeks with

pay after two years’ service. In the construction industry an employee is entitled py. > to 4% of his regular earnings in the form of vacation with pay stamp credits. te INDUSTRIAL STANDARDS—Any industry may, with the approval of the Minis- pare ter, establish its maximum work hours, #ninimum wages and vacations with pay ee providing these are at least as favorable as required by the Act. wes CONCILIATION AND ARBITRATION—The Act recognizes the privileges and ?

right of employees to organize themselves for the purpose of collective bargain- wie

ing. The Board has been very successful in encouraging industrial peace in its

administration of this portion of the Act. iat EQUAL PAY —Equal pay for women performing substantially identical work as wie men is provided for in the Act. Ey THE CO-OPERATIVE ACTIVITIES AND CREDIT UNION ae BRANCH PRA

One of the functions of this branch is to assist interested groups in estab- ze :, lishing and organizing credit unions. The credit unions provice members with a ines convenient method of saving and a source of credit. All credit unions are Ges, closely supervised and their books examined by the Branch te ure sound busi pees ness standards. cs RURAL ELECTRIFICATION—A\lso adminis! sre SE operative acts eS which encourage groups of farmers to insta r ow ver facilities. The am) Alberta farmer can electrify his farm for as little as ¢ CO down with the fea

remainder payable over a period of years. Other services of the Department of Industrics and Labour are provided by the

Nuclear weapons control is urged

By PAUL DOTY Chairman, Federation of American Scientists

A decade ago, most thoughtful people were still struggling to ad- just to the thousand-fold increase in destructive power which the atomic bombs had made possible. This was surely the sharpest in- crease of man’s destructive poten- tial in recorded history. Yet, as the early post-war years ticked by, the opportunity for their con- trol slipped from our grasp.

With the duplication of this de- velopment by the Soviets in 1949, the possibility of a single solution to a single threat began to van- ish. Not only was the manufacture of atomic bombs no longer local- ized, but antoher science and tech- nology had learned how to open Pandora's box. From that moment until this, mankind has reeled be- fore a series of increasingly pow- erful weapons and a quickening in their means of delivery.

Man's destructive capacity has spurted forward again and again, dwarfing the advances made by the first atomic bombs. Nor is the end in sight. Indeed, the most dif- ficult adjustment that must now be made is the recognition of the

- present momentum in the develop- ment of new weapons and delivery systems, This will surely force upon an unwilling world more powerful and devious means of destruction,

The hydrogen bomb, the nuc- lear-powered submarine with in- termediate range missiles and in- tercontinental ballistic missiles will soon be joined by unmanned, nuclear-powered bombers, satel- lites loaded with nuclear weapons and new chemical warfare agents of unimagined lethal power.

The total solution that seemed so near 10 years ago no longer exists in the face of this wave of weapons development. The tech- nical complex of absolute control of modern | weapons multiplies with each passing year. What hope does man have?

One cannot attempt to answer this question without admitting a} feeling of humility and inadequacy for to, extricate man from this folly, which he has so eagerly sought, requires a wise and sus- tained action that has not been heretofore displayed by the world’s diplomats. And yet to fail) to try would serve to justify the oblivion to which we are headed. | What then can we do?

The actions which seem most practical to me are of two kinds.

First we must with renewed en- ergy seek to establish United Na-| tions control of each new weapon) and delivery system. I think it}

would be illusory to imagine that | each control that might be agreed upon would offer total protection or even that agreements can be reached in every case. For at least a generation and perhaps longer we must live with the constant threat of annihilation. But the urge for control will increase. And the experience to be gained in the planning and establishment of these controls will in itself gradu- ally relieve tensions and build con fidence among the nations.

To be specific, we should at present urge these proposals: Nuclear test tolks 7

1. That it is both possible and practical to consider nuclear test explosions and outer space devices apart from other disarmament problems.

2. That, as there is noW agree- ment in principle on the supervi- sion and inspection system neces- sary to verify a test ban, all nuc- lear explosions by all countries be stopped immediately,

3. That the United Nations General Assembly direct the Dis- armament Commission to detail the mechanism necessary for mon- itoring a ban on such explosions.

4. That all research and tests on missiles and outer space satel- lites be placed under United Na- tions-monitored control to insure their use exclusively for peaceful purposes,

The second kind of action is of a long range nature. Total disarma- ment is a goal toward which we must strive. But man cannot un- learn what he has learned, and so the capacity to make nuclear wea- pons and lethal poisons will be with us always. Moreover, the suspicion of hidden stockpiles of | weapons will forever plague the} heads of governments. Thus a} feeling of security cannot return | to mankind until there is a United Nations Police Force sufficiently armed to suppress an infraction of world peace and wisely enough) constituted that it will act only| to prevent war. Z

Thus we must »begin to find) means of building a nucleus of | such a UN group, perhaps by| transforming the present UN Em-| ergency Force, Our first efforts should be in creating a skeleton} force from the members of small, | neutral nations and establishing | the tradition that they are free to| move all over the world as UN| observers. At a later stage the transfer of weapons by all sens tries could begin. |

Along these two routes, the at-| tempt to control weapons and de- | livery systems and the eventual}

transference of weapons superior- |‘

ity to a UN force, it seems to me we must travel if our children are to know the freedom from the} constant threat of annihilation that is for us only a memory.— Labor’s Daily. |

Jack Miner immortalized by |

U.S. school texts |

Before Jack Miner died, his| name appeared in the Book of Knowledge, in its listings of the) world’s 15 great men—a listing) that includes Edison, Ford, Pas-| teur, Bell, Churchill and Aristotle. |

It was an honor that the dol- lars and cents Jack Miner always | disdained could. not have bought.

Now the famous naturalist has | won another enduring recognition | whch, through the years to come, will make his name increasingly familiar to the school children of | the United States.

The U.S. “Prose and Poetry” school texts are devoting eight pages to the life story and the philosophy of Jack Miner,

This means that every child at- tending every school in the 48 states and the territories of Ha- waii and Alaska will read Jack Miner's biography, and become familiar with his beliefs and his work,

The lessons of Kindness and Conservation which he consistent- ly taught, and which he illustrat-| ed in the Jack Miner Bird Sanc- tuary at Kingsville justly earned | for him, in imperishable print, | this living and lasting monument.” —(Editorial — The Conservator — Brampton, Ont., March 8, 1956).

enforced

Children up to the age of 14) will likely be very much aware of | a new sound in the night air after the first of the year.

A delegation» representing the} Boards of the Humboldt Public and Humboldt. Separate Schools attended the regular meeting of the Town Council and made the request that Humboldt’s Curfew Law be again put into effect,

There is a bylaw on the books requiring that curfew be sounded each night warning children up to a certain age to be in their homes. | The original bylaw, number 268, | was amended by bylaw No. 359 | 1949 but has not been enforced | for several years.

After listening to the ~argu-| ments of the delegation, Council agreed to the request which would first see some changes made in| the existing bylaw. Notice of mo-

| tion was made that an amending | bylaw will be brought in at the}

next meeting.

It is Council's intention that the | curfew will be sounded every night except Friday and Saturday | during school weeks and also ex- empting Easter, Christmas and} summer holidays. The curfew will] require all children up to the age| of 14 to be off the streets by 9:30 p.m. It will likely become effec- tive January 1, 1958.—The Jour- nal, Humboldt, Sask., Nov. 28/57.

ACME, ALBERTA

(These are not necessarily the views of the editor of this paper)

Should get necessary information

(The Journal, Melfort, Sask.)

The Town of Melfort, during the past four years, has completed a great many improvements under the “notice of intention,’’ which is the publication of a notice to com- plete certain improvements, such as sidewalk construction, curbs, sewer and water extensions and charge same back to the property owners, abutting the improvements.

Property owners can petition against such improve- ments, but must comply with certain requirements, which cover the proper number of property owners, total assess- ment of those protesting and a specified time limit within which the protest must be lodged.

In the following the affairs of the Town, particularly with regards to the receiving of these protest petitions, we have noticed that a great many are turned down because the petitioners fail to conform with all the require- ments, and therefore, the clerk in reporting on the petition to council, can only point out the deficiencies in the filing of the petitions, and council can only refuse to accept such petitions which fail to conform to all requirements.

The progress of our town is marked by the improve- ments made to it each year. The extension of sidewalks, curbs, sewer and water mains are important steps in this march of progress, and property owners should study care- fully any petition he is asked to sign, weighing very care- fully the advantages offered by such improvements against his ability to pay for them.

Far too often have we noticed that protest petitions have been signed by property owners, who, when the full story of the advantages are explained, have wished to have their names removed from the petition.

Further, we suggest to those who definitely feel opposed to such improvements and wish to sign a pro- test petition or sponsor such a petition among the property owners affected by the “Notice of Intention,” that they fully acquaint themselves with the proper procedure required. Much more is necessary than the gathering of name on a piece of paper. The full information is available at the office of the Town Clerk.

If such a practice is followed, there is less likelihood of misunderstandings and possible hard feelings arising, when council is required to turn down a petition because it fails to meet the necessary requirements of the law.

kkk Strictly for publicity

(The Recorder, Reston, Manitoba)

One of the privileges of an editor is an overflowing mail box!

Rarely does he go to the post office and find his mail box empty. In most instances it is overflowing with literature, government handout, private industry hand- outs and bills.

In fact, there is so much mail that a practised editor can tell by glancing at the address label whether or not, a letter contains an attempt at some free publicity or whether it contains some genuine news.

A stencilled address label, on a second or first class letter is a pretty sure sign that it not worthy opening.

Bills, unfortunately, come in the category of person- ally addressed letters, and as such are opened. Occasion- ally they are even paid.

Despite the mass of mail, there are some pieces of literature, we feel that it is a privilege to receive, and in this class is Hansard, and editors receive these covering both the House of Commons and the Senate, free of charge.

Whenever the oportunity presents itself, we read with interest the proceedings as printed, and, those covering the present session, have convinced us, that the politicians are speaking strictly for the coming election. Every speech and pronouncement, is aimed for a wider audience than that of the House of Commons.

The ammunition for the coming election, which is a certainty for next year, is being manufactured in the pres- ent session. The general public will hear more of it, err long.

kkk Import paper? What next

(The Leader, Davidson, Sask.)

A good deal has been said about the soft spots in the economy, both in the United States and in Canada. A soft spot in the American economy—the manufacture of paper boards and paper products—now threatens to cause a soft spot here.

The American production of these products has s0 expanded that it now greatly exceeds the domestic demand for them. Instead, however, the American manufacturers are taking advantage of a provision in the General Agree- ment on Tariffs and Trade to unload their surpluses in Canada,

The Canadian manufacturer of paper boards and paper board products — best known of which are those carions in which the grocery store makes its deliveries— has managed to keep his production in line with Canadian demand. But he can't continue to maintain full employ- ment in his industry if American producers are allowed to ship their surplus production here.

It would be ironical commentary on our trade policies indeed if we permitted imports from the United States to drive such a distinctively Canadian industry to the wall, At least we know how the Scots felt when Japan began exporting “genuine” Scotch whisky.

It was late on a bitterly cold New Year's Eve, The snow was falling. A poor little girl was wan- dering in the dark cold streets; she was bareheaded and barefoot

She had, of course, had slippers | on when she left home, but they} were not much good, for they

were so huge, They had last been worn by her mother, and they fell

that it would do for a cradle when | And

he had some children of his own. |

So the poor little girl had to walk on with her little bare feet, which wre red and blue with the cold. She carried a quantity of matches in her old apron, and held a packet of them in her hand.

Nobody had bought any of her matches all the long day, and no-| body had even given her a copper. | The poor little creature was hun- gry and perishing with cold, and | she looked the picture of misery. |

The snowflakes fell on her long yellow hair, which curled so pret- tily around her face, but she paid no attention to that. Lights were} shining from every window, and} there was a most delicious odor of roast goose in the streets, for it was Nw Year's Eve, She could not forget that! She found a cornet |

She struck a new one, It burnt, it blazed up, and where the light fell upon the wall, it became transparent like guaze, and she could see right through it into the room.

The table snowy cloth goose

She hastily struck a whole bun- die of matches, because she did so long to keep her grandmother with her, The light of the matches made it as bright as day. Grand- mother had never before looked so big or so beautiful. She lifted the little girl up in her arms, and they soared in a halo of light and joy, far, far above the earth, where there was no more cold, no hunger, and no pain—for they were with God.

In the cold morning light the poor little girl sat there, in the corner between the houses, with rosy cheeks and a smile on her face—dead. Frozen to death on the last night of the old year. New Year's Day broke on the lit- tle body still sitting with the ends of the burnt-out matches in her hand.

Nurse and father both agree that some things are too important to leave to chance, So,

like most Canadians, each uses a chartered bank for planned saving, making regular deposits

to accomplish a definite purpose.

Your own savings plan may be a short-term, modest one — maybe a vacation trip, or new drapes for the living room. Or your goal may be long-range, like providing more security, greater comfort and independence

for you and your family.

But whatever use you find for the money you save, you'll always be glad you saved it!

Save at a bank — millions do!
