[" The seif-important are important only to themselves.EIGHTY-FIFTH YEAR » THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER THE LEADING ADVERTISING MFDIUM IN THE DISTRICT OF BEAUHARNOIS Dr.C.N.Crutchfield Urges World Citizenship at Rotary If Peace to be Preserved Education Must Stress Brotherhood\u2014Must be Less Nationalism Dr.C.N.Crutchfield, Shawinigan Falls, Que.addressed: the Rotary Club of Huntingdon, on Monday.\u201cRotary International and World Citizenship\u201d was the subject of his address, enunciating the four objects of Rotary, he spoke as follows: Four Objectives: 1\u2014 The development of acquaint- - ance as an opportunity for service; 2\u2014 High ethical standards in business and professions; the recognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations; and the dignifying by each Rotarian of his occupation as an opportun- \u2018ity to serve society: 3\u2014 The application of the ideal of serivce by every Rotarian to his personal, business, and community life; 4\u2014 The advancement of international understanding good will, and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional men united in the ideal of service; and it seemed to me that the fourth object of Rotary is in the present world situation the most vitally important one.When the Rotarians, in their wisdom, forged these four objects, I am sure they had no conception of the great need of the wide application of this fourth object \u2014 they could not foresee a Second World Catastrophe the development and horror of the atomic bomb, and the misery, hunger and spirit of frustration that is now rampant throughout the world.World Peace As an educationist and one who has had wide experience in the organization and development of educational theories across Canada, I have given a great deal of thought to this whole problem of world peace and I am convinced that if we are to have world peace in our time, then world society must be organized along the lines similar to those of Rotary International.What a marvelous world this would be if all its citizens would put service above self.In other words, we must forget our own selfish motives and strive with every bit of energy we have towards the building up of a conception of world society based upon the fundamental principles of the brotherhood of man.Early Man In studying the history of man from the earliest recorded time, we find that he has been an aggressive and war-like animal.In fact, according to scientific research, man for millions of years before he was able to record his actions must have been, one who fought

evening.From left to right they are W.V.G.Neish, President of the Quebec Provincial Command of the Canadian Legion; Mr.John Telfer, President of Huntingdon Branch No, 81 Canadian Legion and chairman for the evening; Major J.H.Molson, M.B.E.,, ED, Honorary President Huntingdon Branch No.81 Canadian Legion, who was making an address at the time, and evidently very amusing.Thursday evening was a gala night in the history of Huntingdon Branch No, 81 of the Canadian Legion, for on this occasion the official opening of the new Legion Hall, at Falrview Road, Huntingdon, was celebrated with a banquet.Approximately 160 members, wives and invited guests sat down to a sumptuous repast catered for by Mr.Wm, Ryan and cooked and served in one of the large halls of the building.The room with its head table and two long tables that went almost the entire length of the hall, presented a festive appearance that spelled suocess from the very beginning.A recent purchase of 200 folding chairs helped to make the seating accommodation uniform and in keeping with general layout of the room.The building which was originally the hospital at Chateauguay Barracks and purchased from War Assets Corporation earlier in the year, is a spaclous one and well sulted to the purpose for which it is intended.Its purchase was greatly engendered by the efforts of the President, Mr.J.Telfer, who saw ously for survival.When we consider this strange attitude of man, we sometimes wonder if he will ever become anything else but a selfish war-like individual.Early Wars In the very early days wars were almost continuous between tribes and packs but only very small areas were affected by some of the so- called major wars of these early days.These wars were either wars of conquest or revenge, wars between different ideologies.These ideologies varied from time to time and from place to place.; With the discovery of gun powder wars took on a more serious nature.They eliminated close physical contact of the warriors and since that time wars have become more and more destructive.The development of higher explosives and huge cannons in the First World War caused a terrific slaughter of man and gave us some foresight of what wars might develop into.The Second World War was fought with greater ferocity than any previous war.Not only were the instruments of war much more powerful, but man reverted more than ever to that ferocious animal state .witnesses of which were concentration camps and the torture and killing of hundreds of prisoners of war and poor helpless civilians.New Discoveries It is a strange situation but, nevertheless, true that wars give a great impetus to new scientific discoveries and in the search for a more deadly weapon than any that were found before, we got the atomic bomb and a method of releasing atomic energy, an energy which comes very close to that energy which apparently keeps this whole vast universe in motion and gives us our sun light and our vegetation and everything that we have on this earth to keep us alive.Why should we, as men, continue this insane method of settling our disputes between nations?Is there something wrong with our system of government, with our educational system, our economic system, or must we forever be controlled by those hereditary primeval instincts which possibly were necessary for the survival of the species but today, in my opinion, have no relation to our survival.In fact, unless we cease this fratricidal, man will not survive except in those out-of-way places that will not be reached by those new and terrible weapons of war.League of Nations After, World, War One a League of Nations was established but this League of Nations failed to meet Guides Will Escort Visitors Through Quebec Parliament Buildings Visitors wishing to tour the Quebec Parliament Buildings next year will find at their service a staff of young guides, well-trained and affable, Several young men are presently undergoing a series of courses prepared by officials of the Tourism Branch, and dealing with the history of the Parliament Buildings, as well as everything that may be of interest in the building itself.Per- lodic visits to the building, under the expert guidance of professors, are completing their Knowledge of the architecture of the Parliament Buildings, its gallery of paintings and tableaux, sculptures and carvings, library, and the history of the two Legislative Chambers.In addition, these guides will possess sufficient general knowledge to be able to answer any and all questions that may be asked of them regarding the history of the city and Province of Québec, and a hundred and one other subjects.They will start their duties with the beginning of next year.Visiting Day At Huntingdon High School Interesting Tour of Class Rooms\u2014See Pupils at Work Tuesday afternoon, December 9, was Visiting Day at Huntingdon Academy and High School.Despite the cold and windy weather, 25 parents and friends visited the school and signed the register.Grades 1, 2 and 3 held a music appreciation period in the school gymnasium, under the dir.ction of Mr.Stanley Liversidge.The rhythm band, made up of these three grades played several selections, accompanied at the prano by Miss Robinson.Phonograph recordings were played and the children identified the various instruments playing in the orchestrations.A music quiz on the Nutcracker Suite followed.Grade 7 had thelr oral French lesson under the direction of Mr.Arlanno.The entire class was carried on in the French language with all directions and commands given in French.Grade 2 dramatized a reading lesson.Several members of the class read portions of the story, and then the complete story was acted out by other members of the class.Several group and class recitations were also given.At the close of the reading period the class stood and had physical exercises.Continued on page 10 New Legion Hall Officially Opened continued on page 7 £26 the possibilities that ownership of such a meeting place would have on Lhe future of the Branch.The culmination of his aspirations came on Thursday night when the official opening was nrought about by the announcement made by Major J.H.Molson, at the banquet.The following took part in the programme which followed the banquet: 1st Vice-President, H.K.Damant proposed the Toast to the King which was followed by a bagpipe selection by the pipe band.Dr.H.R.Clouston, a member of Huntingdon Branch, gave an outline of the history of the branch.Rev.W.S.Hatcher, Chaplain of the Branch, gave the Prayer of Dedication, which was followed by Mrs.Raymond Ross singing \u201cBless This House\u201d and accompanied on the piano by Mrs.Conrad.W.K.Pope of Huntingdon Branch introduced the Honorary President, Major J.H.Molson, M.BE., ED,, who announced the new hall to be officially open.1st Vice-President Damant gave the welcome to the guests which \u201cwas responded to by Mr.Lyons, Chairman of the Legion Polio Fund, who thanked the branch and the public for the splendid support given to the fund in Hunting- don and which resulted in a sum of $1189.00 being collected.C.M.Oney, of Huntingdon Branch proposed the Toast to the Provincial Command and introduced the Provincial President, W.V.G.Neish.Mr.Neish spoke on the Canadian legion and its affairs and the workings of the Provincial Command in relation to the various branches.E.C.Martin of Hunting- don Branch thanked the guest of honor for his remarks and helpful ress.Major J.H.Molson addressed the gathering briefly, remarking on his residence at the barracks during the war and the many friends he had made while in Hunt- Ingdon during that time and since.J.G.Rennie, M.L.A,, thanked the Honorary President and announced that Major Molson had made it known that he would present the Huntingdon Branch with the needed piano.(On Saturday night a new Heintzman plano arrived at the Legion Hall with the compliments of Major Molson.) C.E.Boyce, Huntingdon Branch proposed the Toast to the Ladies and this was responded to by Mrs.H.R.Clouston of the Ladies Auxiliary, with a history of the Auxiliary and special reference to the wartime work of the ladles.Honorary Member A.A.Lunan also addressed the gathering briefly.The pipe band played several selections during the evening and these were greatly enjoyed.On Saturday and Sunday afternoon the new hall was open to public inspection and quite a number of persons took advantage of the opportunity to view the building.SEAWEED TO BE FURTHER EXPLOITED The Scottish Seaweed Research Association, which has already done much for the scientific and economic exploitation of seaweed, has now upened its new headquarters at Inveresk Gate, Musselburgh.Its present inquiries are directed to discover the food value and diges- tibllity of seaweed as fodder for sheep, pigs and poultry.In addition, further use is to be made of seaweed as a fertiliser.It is believed that seaweed

outstanding breeders of Ayrshire cattle in Scotland were the distinguished guests who honored the Howlck-Hunting- don Ayrshire Club annual banquet held in the Chateau, on Thursday evening.Nearly 160 men and women were present when Mr.Stuart Richardson, Montreal, again delighted a Chateauguay Valley audience with one of his brilliant talks,, titled \u201cThe Story of the Inn\".Mr.Gilbert McMillan made the address of welcome wherein he stated that farm groups could always be assured of a warm weloome by the Townspeople of Huntingdon.The people here are ever ready to accord good tangible support as well as a welcome to any activity promoted by the agriculturists of the Chateauguay Valley.We indeed welcome our distinguished guests from Scotland, the United States and Ontario as well as those of this province who may reside a bit further away from Huntingdon.Mr.Gerald Roy, President of the Howick-Huntingdon Ayrshire Club reviewed some of the Club activities that had transpired during the past year.Two club sales, exhibiting at Ormstown, local fall fairs and the Royal Winter Fair and the selling of cattle far and near were all activities that were participated in by club members.Mr.Douglas Ness, \u201cWoodside Farm\", Howick, a frequent visitor to Scotland for the purpose of selecting cattle to be imported to Canada, introduced the Bcottish guests.Mrs.Allan Barr of \u2018\u201cHobs- land\u201d was greeted with an expression of warmth by Mr.Ness for her being such a model hostess as he had so experienced on several visits to \u2018\u201cHobsland\u201d.Mr.Barr

and Canada name.On Mr.Barr's farms you will see from 200 to 250 head of Ayrshires.Not only is he a great breeder of Ayrshires, but a good farmer and business man, for he operates a milk retail business in Prestwick and Ayre.Being such an outstanding farmer and business man he has been named by the Government to be the supervisor of all farms in the Ayre and Prestwick areas as is the custom in Britain with a view to having all farmers produce the maximum and operate efficiently.Mr.George Templeton, \u201cCarnell\u201d and his four brothers all operate great farms in Scotland.\u201cCarnell\u201d are highly prized Ayrshires in Scot- lund and equally so in Canada or the United States, where they have frequently been shipped.Mr.Allan Barr, in acknowledging the introduction and welcome accorded stated that they had decided last summer to attend the Royal Winter Fair.It took 13 hours to fly from their home in Scotland to Montreal and also required 13 hours to travel from -\u2018Burnside\u201d and \u201cWoodside\u201d farms in Howick to the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto.Mr.Barr proclaimed the Royal Fair to be the most wonderful show of its kind in the world.Mr.Barr humorously told stories that had the audience in fits of laughter.He commented upon a local outstanding Scot, who he noticed when attending the Royal Winter Fair took sugar on his porridge.Gib McMillan gracefully acknowledged the true Scottish misdemeanour through nodding his head to Mr.Barr.Mr.Templeton spoke solemn words to the Ayrshire men whereby he thought Canadian

deflectors to stop pouring snow from blurring the vision of the driver.Both plow and right wing are power hydraulically operated from the cab of the truck by the operator and helper, Extra equipment includes special hot water heater and defroster and roof apot light.The Council received delivery of the plow and wing late In October and the truck itself on Nov.26th.The equipment had been on order from C.O.Monat and Company, Montreal distributors for the Walter Motor Truck Co.of Canada, of which Mr.OC.Mathewson of Montreal, who handled the order is a representative.Decision to buy new and better equipment for the maintenance of their winter roads program was taken by the Council in January of this year.Accordingly a By-Law was drafted asking for permission to borrow up to $16,000.00 for a period of ten years to finance the purchase.The vote which was taken early in March passed with a sizable majority in favor of the purchase.During the winter the Council inspected various types of For 1947 Exhibition The annual meeting of the Livestock Breeders\u2019 Association of the District of Beauharnols Inc, was held on Wednesday afternoon, at the Town Hall, Ormstown, with Mr.Gilbert McMillan, President, in the chalr, After the minutes of the previous annual meeting had been read and passed upon, Mr.McMillan gave an outline of the activities of the pas year.He regretted that the financial statement was not as good as he would have liked it.Severai reasons for this, among which were that more prize money had been pald out; attendance was poor and thus gate receipts were down; considerable money had been spent on improvements, moving the race track and so forth and a large insurance premium had come due this year.He said a better show was being buflt up than could actually be paid for and all this will need careful consideration in the near future.He did not think it would bc possible to increase the admission price, but more revenue is necessary to carry on the show on such a scale as Ormstown is carried on.He stated that the new method of allocation of the Federal grant was not encouraging.\u2018The government will only pay money for improvement of grounds and buildings and then it Is on the basi of 50%.Thus if a grant is to be obtained is is necessary for the Show Officials to improve the property and spend two dollars to make one dollar.Such a grant does no improve the financial standing of the assocoation.He felt that this is a matter that should be looked into at an early date.There is also a problem of the dates for the 1948 show, which have been set for same days as those of Lachute Fair.The Ormstown Show has always been set for the first full week in June starting on Wednesday night and ending on Saturday.Through some misunderstanding, the Lachute dates for 1948 are the same as those for Ormastown.Another matter that requires consideration is that of the Ormstown War Memorial Committee using the arena for a skating rink, In view of what happened there last year, it is necessary that certain safeguards be taken to cover the interests of the Breeders\u2019 Association.\u2018The secretary had taken the necessary steps and written a letter to the War Memorial Committee, but 20 far no word had been received from them.He went on to thank all those who helped in the 1947 show and the officers and others who had worked with him during the past year, for their great co-operation, The financial statement was read and passed with very little comment.A copy of the statement appears elsewhere in this issue.Mr.Douglas Ness said he thought that something should be said on the financial statement at this meeting to avoid talk being made of ft outside.He felt that the proper piace to discuss such matters was at the meeting and he had hoped there would be more discussion.He said that ail money spent had been spent in good faith and in support im legs to get anywhere.° TWELVE PAGES DUNDEE COUNCIL GETS DELIVERY OF NEW WALTER SNOW PLOW TTVFRL We REN FA re\u201d 3 ig» Treas.; R.G.Steven, Mayor; 3 8.McGibbon, Councillor and Jos.Faubert, driver.DESCRIPTIONS AND PARTICULARS OF SNOW PLOW snow-fighting equipment but knowing the Walter Record of winter road maintenance under severe snow conditions, they decided on the outfit which they have only recently taken delivery of.The total cost to the municipality will be slightly under $16,000.00 which, as stated before will be repaid in ten years, The first efforts at wintér road maintenance in the Township by motor snow plow date back over a decade to 1936 when Mr.Oliver Derocher was hired by the hour to maintain the roads for a number of years.The late Allan Morris also held a contract for one year.In 1943 the Council decided to buy the 8 ton GM.C.truck and plow from Mr.Derocher but its inability to cope with the snow conditions prompted the Oouncil to take the steps outlined previously.Mr.Jos.Faubert who operated a frelght route from Dundee to Montreal for a number of years has been hired as an operator for the winter months.The Council is delighted to have received their truck on such comparatively ahort notice as some municipalities across the border where the trucks are built, have been forced to walt two years for delivery.Dates For Ormstown Show Set For June 9- Annual Meeting Shows Receipts to be Down 12, 1948 spent until a meeting of directors had been held to discuss the matters thoroughly and to decide that such expenditures were absolutely necessary and in the interests of the association.While the financial statement was not good, as the chairman had said, much improvement to the grounds and bulldings had been made.The race track had been moved and a subway had been built under the track to facilitate the movement of traffic to the other side of same.It had always been a problem to regulate the traffic over the track and there had been much danger in this practice.While a contract price had been given for making the subway, the committee felt they could do it cheaper by employing their own labor.This had been done and it.had turned out that it did cost a few more dollars.The weather was against a better attendance at the 1947 show, but such may not be the case another year.IL was most discouraging to the farmers who were late with their farm work and naturally they were not eager to spend time at the exhibl- tion when nice weather did prevail.Mr.Gilbert McMillan also pointed out that a considerable sum had been spent in gravel to allow cars to park in the grounds and this was an expense that was not bargained for, but there was nothing that could be done about it.He also pointed out that the government grant had not yet been received as an inspector had to visit the grounds and appraise what had been done.Several of those present voiced their views that they approved what had been done and that all had heen done in the hest interests of the show.: It was decided that dates for the exhibition be adhered to and that the 1848 show would be held from June 8th to the 12th.It was thought possible that Lachute might be persuaded to change theirs as soon as they knew what had happened, The election of five directors re- suited in the following: Gilbert Mc- Millan, Archie McCormick, Douglas Ness, Donald E.Black, M.P.,, and A.Ness.Mr.A, Ness was elected in place of R.Graham, who expressed a wish by letter not to be on the Board this year due to pressure of business.All of the foregoing expressed thanks to the meeting for their confidence in them by re-electing them to the Board and promised that at all times the interests of the association would be uppermost in their administration.A vote of thanks was also expressed by the meeting to the directors for their work in the past year.The meeting then adjourned.Immediately following the newly- elected directors met for an executive meeting and to discuss some matters pertaining to the coming year.The officers were elected as follows: Gilbert McMillan, President; D.E.Black, 1st Vice-Presi- dent; Dougles A.Ness, 2nd Vice- President and Carlyle Dickson, S8ec- retary-Treasurer.Among matters discussed were attractions for 1948 show, the skating rink and the of the show.No money had been moving of the grandstand.\u2014\u2014\u2014{{ Good tentiens need twe Page Two The Huntingdon Gleaner Published by The Huntingdon Gleaner Inc.ADAM

for Britain would be campaigned for In Huntingdon with a view of Huntingdon, Quebec making a donation of food parcels, ete, to our namesake town, Huntingdon, England.In the interval of time some data has been obtained and a great deal of encouragement to proceed with the campaign to secure acceptable goods for shipment to Huntingdon, England.At the Howick-Huntingdon Ayrshire Club banquet on Thursday evening, Mr.Stuart Richardson made a fetching appeal in behalf of the worthiness of such a plan and how desirable it is to make such donation.Aged pedple, widows and widowers especially, have a very difficult time to get along on the rations accorded and the aged people must take their chances in obtaining their rations through standing in lines, often to find their ration quota has already been sold to some younger person who was able to get to the shop at an earlier hour.The brightness of the Canadian packed goods is prized by the recipients more than we can appreciate, stated Stuart Richardson.When a package is received it is placed on a dining room table.The recipient will open it in the presence of his or her friends or relatives.They will look every little packet over and admire it as it is withdrawn from the container.If it is a dry mix soup packet and when made into soup the child or adult having the soup will literally smack his Ups with every sip.The people of England are not poor as far as finances are concerned but they are in dire need of concentrated foods and fats which we have and might well share with those great people who achieved so much for us during the early days of World War I.Ways of Shipment Several ways of shipping Bundles for Britain can be followed.The best avenue for Huntingdon to adopt appears to be to have the concentrated goods of acceptance put up in parcels of several pounds and labeled for some one person in Hun- tingdon, England.The names will be duly received from Huntingdon, England.These packages will be packed in wooden packing cases and shipped by freight.Huntingdon.Quebec sponsors would pay the freight charges to the seaboard of St.John, N.B.or Halifax.The shipment is consigned to the British Ministry of Food who in turn ecknowledges same and has it shipped to Hun- tingdon.Eng.where it is opened up and distributed to the so designated persons as marked on the packages.The ocean freight and the rail charges for delivery in England are paid for by the British Ministry of Food.Handling food parcels and clothing.etc.in this way means the goods do not get into the hands of a possible black market but :o the actual people for whom same is intended.The shipping expenses so handled means that the people of Huntingdon, Quebec, will have more funds with which to buy foods for shipping to Huntingdon, England.The type of foods that will be wanted will primarily be: Condensed milk, evaporated milk, dried fruits such as prunes, apricots.peaches, raisins.sultanas and apples, rice.With each two pounds of dried fruit a half pound of sugar should glso be sent.Shortening, butter and cheese are in dire want and should be packed in sealed cans.Soups and chocolate mixes in packets.canned soups are too heavy and not recommended for shipment.\u2018Tea in !z lb.packets, fruit cake in pound packets.Any kind of sweeteners in sealed cans, desiccated coconut, canned meats or fish, (herring excepted).In the event of shipping soap, a much desired product, such should anly be shipped in separate containers and never with foods.Huntingdon, Quebec should aim to send several hundreds of dollars\u2019 worth of foods to Hun- tingdon.England.It can be achieved if the people take hold of the idea.By the time this appears in print it is highly probable it will be known what organization is going to handle the shipping, packing, collecting and general detail work, To carry out the work donations of money will be accepted as well as the aforementioned foods so packaged.With the money the foods will be purchased wholesale.Already three donations of $25 each nave been received.Many donations of any denomination will be accepted.The Gleaner will in all probability be asked to acknowledge these donations by whatever organization assumes the responsibility of handling the Bundles for Britain.Man makes the circumstances, and spiritually as well as economically is the artificer of his own IC

years during the war, that part .enment by Some of the buildings remain on the original site, among these being the four owned by Leach Textiles Ltd, and those bought by the Legion and the Rotary Club.Mr.J.L.Cluff purchased several buildings and moved them onto his land nearby.Thus a new settlement is building up on a purely wartime site.However, this site is not situated in Huntingdon town, but in the Municipality of Hinchinbrook, yet for the most part the various buildings serve Huntingdon town in particular.Fairview Road is presenting a filled appearance, but the road itself is in very bad con- .dition and demands immediate attention as soon as winter has passed.If this is going to be a busy thoroughfare, and indications are that it will be, then this road must be made presentable and in comparison to other roads and streets in the Town of Huntingdon.Large numbers of people are using this road as they make their way to the Legion Hall or the Youth Centre, and those people who have their residence on this street are also using it daily.From a deserted by-way, it has become a busy highway.All this has come about because a new settlement is gradually forming in this part of Huntingdon.It seems that the logical thing to do now, is to have this area included in Huntingdon Town and for the town to administer it.The water works belong to the Town and these are needed to supply water and for fire prevention and fighting measures.The sewer connection belongs to the town.Those persons using these facllities are obliged to pay out-of-town rates.As this is out of town, special fees can be collected if a fire occurs and the services of the town fire fighters are needed.It is quite possible that the other buildings may be sold and that manufactures of some kind may locate in this spot.If this occurs, the owners will demand adequate water and sewer and also fire protection.Hinchinbrook cannot provide it at the moment, so the Town of Huntingdon will have to.Therefore we belleve the Town of Hun- tingdon has a clear case for annexation of this part to the present corporation.It is something that should be considered very soon.A Militant Type M time to time and with marked regularity we receive in our office a certain Union Newspaper that seems to publish nothing else but grief and urging to fight this and that.Workers should have wages of sufficient amount that they can live decently and they should have conditions of working that are fair and just.But the continual airing of the supposed sufferings of any class of workers and goading them all the time to be on their guard against their employers, does not help to make friendly relations.If any class of workers feel that they are not being treated fairly, it is their right to make approaches to their employer direct or through their union representatives.Once their advances have been met, they should settle down to work in a peaceful manner and let by-gones be by-gones.This particular Union Newspaper does not seem content for this to happen however, but keeps publishing pictures and cartoons of past happenings and making them seem that the employer is far fiom a fair person and in fact that he is a person that does not care two hoots about his employees.These pictures and cartoons and the articles are counted to keep the workers always feeling that they have an axe to grind, that they are the worst treated people in the business and so forth.Hard- 1+ ever does it change its tune and declare that the workers are now happy and contented.The government is singled out all the time as an enemy to be fought at every turn.It is not likely that there will be peace in the working field while such papers are allowed to go on unchecked.This Union Newspaper believes that there is one agency that is right and that is the union.The employers are wrong all the time whether they meet the demands or not.Police are shown as a bunch of tough.brutal men that delight in taking off the strikers to jail and some of the cartoons would seem to be threats against law and order of every kind.My mind to me a kingdom is: Such present joys therein I find, That it excels all other bliss That earth affords or grows by kind.Edward Dyer By What Law These Searches?OME repeated reports of Canadian citizens travelling to the United States having their rockets searched at the border by Canadian customs officials, of women officials compelling women to undress to prove non-possession of more dollars than the law says they should possess.If such reports are true, and not merely official moonshine put out as a deterrent, the Government has a duty to explain by what right and under what authority such searches are made.The law-breaker, the man or woman who at this time seems to take into the United States more Canadian dollars than regulations say he or she should take, need expect no sympathy.Punishment should be theirs.But the number of these people who have no instinct of patriotism must be few, and the total amount of the dollars they smuggle must be trifling in comparison with the total export it is aimed to reduce.For 89 percent.of Canadians who travel to the United States\u2014and tens of thousands cross the border each week\u2014are honest, decent people who get the funds they require from the proper channels and no more.That these should be subject to personal search, with their women-folk compelled to disrobe to satisfy the curiosity of prying officials, would be vicious molestation\u2014an intolerable invasion of a citizen's rights.Under our Canadian law there is such a thing as the search-warrant.If the Government should Eave reason for belleving that certain individuals are engaged in smuggling dollars across the border, then the search-warrant can\u2014end should\u2014 be resorted to.But we know of no principle of law, certainly no theory of liberty, under which the Government may recruit an army of officials, station them on the border, and instruct them to seize the person of the citizen, to molest and search him without due.legal processes.And if there is such a law on the Oanadian statute books, it is a most dangerous one\u2014open to abuse as in the present case.This country, in recent years, has travelled a \u2018Why, sometimes unconsciously, towards gov- mien indtefid df A - Journey

(CP) The fourth session of Canada\u2019s 20th parliament met late last week in the lengthening shadows of an uncertain economic future and one that forebodes a stormy time for the administration of veteran Prime Minister Mackenzie King.That the legislative road will be rough was not long left in doubt.No sooner had the governor-general, Viscount Alexander, outlined the government's program in the speech from the throne than the opposition was hammering away.There were angry words about the rising cost of living, the \u201cplight\u201d of veterans and farmers and the government\u2019s financial policies.And this even before the house got down to any real business.The throne speech forecast legislation to meet the dollar shortage but said the shortage would necessarily limit Canada\u2019s capacity for further economic aid to other nations, though the mutual assistance principle would be continued so far ac possible, But, the speech sald, a permanent solution to Canada\u2019s exchange problems rests on revival of world trade.Domestically speaking, the speech forecast legislation for a proposed increase in the initial wheat payment, plans for a low-rental housing project for veterans and consolidation of all statutes pertaining to the armed services.There also will be bills dealing with a federal labor code, revision of the income tax law and simplification of the Dominion Elections Act, measures which came up but were not dealt with at the last session.On the cost of living, the speech admitted government concern.It sald departments concerned had been directed to \u201ckeep under constant supervision conditions of production and supply which tend to raise the level of consumer prices.\u201d It was John Bracken, the Progressive Conservative leader.who started the verbal fireworks in the commons chamber.He disagreed with a proposal by Prime Minister King to adjourn the throne speech debate\u2014where members can speak on any subject\u2014after a day.so as to get on with the Geneva trade agreements and other legislation the house must pass before it ad- i journs for the Christmas recess Dec.19.Mr.Bracken said he didn't want any muzzling of members whose constituants were clamoring to have the spiralling cost of living, veterans, farming and other problems immediately considered.The Geneva trade agreements were important.but they could wait.And M.J.Coldwell, the C.C.F.leader, and Solon Low, the Social Credit leader, agreed with Bracken.Then In a brief but fiery preview of his party's mood, Mr.Bracken charged that the government had \u201cmurdered the constitution\u201d by imposing the economic control it now will ask parliament to approve.As for the government's dollar-saving measures by which many imports are restricted, these were \u201cillegally and unconstitutionally\u201d put into ef- fect\u2014a charge that brought a denial from the prime minister.Prime Minister King referred to the world situation as responsible for Canada\u2019s position\u2014a statement which brought boos from the oppositions.There was no thought of muzzling any member, he sald, but it was the government's responsibility to see that the business of the house was carried on in the best interests of the country.If the opposition would not agree, then the government would map the pro- and her future well-being cedure Itself and \u201cstand by it.\u201d The debate of the prime minister's innocent-appearing motion lasted almost two hours.The upshot was that he withdrew it until later, but the delay was sufficient to force week-end postponement of addresses by the mover and seconder of the throne speech and upset the government's tight time-table.The week brought word that the Dominjon\u2019s future agricultural markets are in doubt.In a frank statement to the closing session of the Dominion-Provincial agricultural conference, Agricultural Minister Gardiner said that a \u201cvery difficult\u201d financial situation had arisen in negotiations for renewal of food contracts between Canada and the United Kingdm.In negotiation for renewal of food contracts between Canada and the United Kingdom he could only hope the problem of what Britain was \u201cgoing to use for money\u201d would be overcome.Sir Andrew Jones, head of the permanent British food mission here, told the conference that if Britaln could not buy Canadian farm products, it was simply because she could not \u201cafford to pay for them\u201d.Britain needed food badly, but had no means to pay.It was a matter of dollars.Thus the fate of the United Kingdom-Canadian agreements for cheese, bacon, beef and even wheat agreement, hung in the balance, It was obvious Britain would seek to retain the wheat contract which still has two years to run, but observers here were not prepared to say if Canada would let the contract stand if contracts for other food products were not renewed.The uncertainty led the agricultural conference not to set new targets but suggest that the 1947 program be continued for 1948.This means that wheat acreage will remain unchanged at the 1947 total of approximately 24,000,000 acres while that of important feed grains oats and barley, will stay at 14,310,- 200 and 8,000,000 respectively.This W edding Whatever fear there was that the people of Great Britain were turning away from their national traditions was dispelled by the enthusiastic loyalty to the Crown expressed on the occasion of the wedding of Princess Elizabeth.The pageantry of regal splendor which passed between Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey had never been more brilliant and impressive in the pompous days of the Great Elizabeth or Queen Victoria.Coming as it did in the midst of a period of drab and depressing austerity, the colorful and romantic spectacle lifted the people above their environment and released their suppressed spirits in an outburst of jubilation.Even we in Canada, who have experienced little or nothing of the stress and strain through which the people of Britain have passed, felt an emotional uplift and exhilaration as we listened to the broadcast descriptions of the royal procession and the rapturous chorus of half a million joyful voices along the route.\u201cAnd I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the sound of mighty thunderings saying, Alleluia; for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.\u201cLet us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him; for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.\u201cAnd to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the linen is the righteousness of the saints.\u201d It is no sacrilege to apply the above Scripture to the occasion of the Royal Wedding.The people of Britain did not regard this marriage merely as the linking of a young man and woman in the bonds of matrimony.The occasion represented all of that in its most sacred form, and the broadcast of the ceremony in the Abbey.with its dignified yet simple ritual, must have brought home to millions of listeners throughout the world the sanctity and beauty of Christian marriage.That was surely needed in these times when marriages are too often entered into lightly and broken with the same indifference toward the plighted troth.But there was far more in and vegetables.As the week's clincher on a dark situation, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics reported the cost of living index climbed another 1.4 points during October with foods leading the upward trend.The index, calculated on the basis 1935-39 equals 100, reached 143.6 at Nov.1 compared with 142.1 at Oct.1 and 127.1 at Nov.1 last year, a 16-point

and enduring in the life of the nation.After six terrible years of war, this was the first opportunity the people had to proclaim their loyalty to the great traditions of the past and their faith in

ottawa observer Our Parliament Opens As this is being written parliament is opening with much of the old-time beauty and pageantry.One cannot view the forms and ceremonies clgsely resembling those of the United Kingdom without feeling very deeply the long struggle and suffering to gain the political liberty which we enjoy.More deeply still does one feel that it is this political liberty that has given us the opportunity to achieve, under the initiative of freedom, a measure of economic liberty and prosperity far exceeding that of any other form of government and which offers greater prospects for our future.The program Last Thursday the Prime Minister returned from Great Britain and DEPOT STREET Cement-Builders\u2019 Supplies Portland Cement, Masonry Cement, Plaster Lath, Gypsum Sheathing,

again the dangers of the European situation and stressed the need for moderation \u201cfor patience and goodwill\u201d in all our contacts because impatience and ill-will between classes and nations retarded recovery and prosperity and could lead to disaster.The program The highlights of the government\u2019s program are already known: to ratify the extensive trade agreements made at Geneva; To consider the measures taken by the government to meet our exchange needs; and to strengthen our Canadian economy for the benefit of all sections of our people.Mr.Coldwell, the socialist leader, has outlined a program which he said would be discussed by the members of his party.It recommended the control of prices of food, clothing and fuel and rationing if necessary.Farm representatives here feel that control of food prices is unfair to them unless wages and manufactured goods are kept within their ability to pay.The Progressive Conservative leader Mr.Bracken promised that the program of his party would be decided and announced after the members met in Caucas.Trade is a two way street Perhaps since confederation Canada\u2019s department of Trade and Commerce, like the trade departments of all other countries, concentrated on finding and holding markets for the products of Canadian farms, factories, fisheries and forests.Ever since the end of the war has made external trade again possible Canada\u2019s Minister of Trade, Hon.J.A.MacKinnon has recognized trade as a two-way project and has paid equal attention to imports and exports.For this reason his 1947 goodwill trip to South Africa and the Mediterranean countries has had exceptional success.Almost every country visited buys a great deal more from Canada than it is able to sell to us.This creates an exchange situation for our customers which Canadians understand and appreciate.This attitude on the part of Mr.MacKinnon's trade mission created goodwill for Canada that will be of great value when we reach the position, now predicted, where we need wider markets for the things we produce.Reciprocity To Canadians Mr.MacKinnon said \u201cNever before have I been so impressed by the need of Canada to buy from the countries which buy so much from us, especially those of the British Commonwealth countries.We must realize that by so doing we indirectly assist and strengthen the United Kingdom in her present {financial difficulties and, of course, help ourselves.\u201d Last year we sold to the Union of South Africa 19 million dollars worth of our products and purchased less than 8 millions from them.Facts of Interest 1\u2014 It is reported that, in the election for a mock parliament held in the University of Alberta last week the result was: Liberals 504; C.C.F.(socialist) 488; Social Credit

Specially Written For The Huntingdon Gleaner by Jack McNeil Riots ruled the Middse East in the week following the fateful deci- slon of the United Nations that the Palestine problem was best solved by partitioning Palestine into independent Jewish and Arab states.The death toll rose to almost 100 al the week-end with belated reports of 44 killed in Aden where part of the Arab world's 40,000,000 Moslems violently protested the U.N.decision.The 33-13 U.N.assembly vote for partition followed a seven-month search by the world organization to solve what has been top-ranking world problem since the First World War.Canada took a major role in the solution attempt with Lester B.Pearson, under-secretary of state for external affairs, one of the prime workers in the partition committee But the comparatively cool-head- ed discussions in the assembly at Lake Success, N.Y., were almost immediately followed by a surge of passion in the areas affected and Arabs throughout the Middle Fast flocked to recruiting offices calling for a \u201choly war\u201d to prevent partition.Reports of demonstrations came from Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Aden and Libya.In most of Palestine, however, a sullen peace prevailed except in the bloody \u201cborderland area\u201d between Jewish Tel-Aviv and Arab Jaffa.Palestine death tolls mounted by the week-end to 55.While the United Nations placed an embargo on licensed shipments of arms and ammunition to Middle East countries, Jewish plans for taking power in Palestine were being advanced to the government- making stage.Dr.Chaim W.veteran Zionist statesman and leader of the Palestine labor party was described as likely to become the first president.Prospect of a Germany indefinitely partitioned between Russia and the Western Powers stalked the

major problems!-\u2014Foreign Minister Molotov of Russia startled the council by proposing that each ot the Big Four powers prepare its own draft of a German peace treaty and submit them to the council in two months.Immediste reaction came from Poreign Minister Bidault of France, who replied: \u201cIf we are to follow Mr.Molotov's course our presence in London will become superfluous.\u201d Molotov, saying he would not insist that his proposal be considered, left the diplomats surprised and mystified\u2014not certain whether the proposal was thereby withdrawn or tabled for future discussion.The next day Molotov blocked all efforts by the three western foreign ministers to come to grips with the Austrian problem, charging that Britain, France and the United States were \u201cInterfering with Austrian independence and seeking to enslave \u201cher by the provision of economic aid.\u201d Angered, Secretary of State Marshall indirectly referred to the Marshall Plan for the rehabilitation of Europe and declared Molotov was trying to wreck it.\u201cWe are all aware of the real purpose of attacks of this nature,\u201d Marshall sald, \u201cIt is to disrupt the great co-operative movement that is being launched for the economic recovery of Europe.\u201d Replying directly to the charge, Marshall said, \u201c.I do not think that Mr.Molotov could possibly convince me that he really believes his allegations and implications.\u201d At last, as the week of frustration drew to its end, Marshall challenged Molotov to stop talking \u201cgeneralities\u201d about the German peace treaty and state precisely the conditions under which Russia would agree to unify Germany.The American secretary of state called for elimination of Germany's zonal boundaries as a starter.In response, Molotov launched into an attack on British and American policies in Western Germany, accused the two powers of breaking the Potsdam agreement on reparations, and said they were \u201cactually hindering\u201d economic recovery in the western zones.Marshall and Bevin counter-at- tacked immediately, Bevin asserted that Molotov's arguments were designed to convince the Germans that they have \u201cbut one friend\u2014 the Soviet Union.\u201d Foreign Minister Bidault also clashed with Molotov, on the issue of a special international regime over the Ruhr, desired by France.Thus, through another session, the division on basic issues between east and west was complete.Their differences have been unrelieved by any willingness to reach compromise except on minor points.At the week-end, Premier Robert Schuman\u2019s new drastic antl-strike, anti-sabotage legislation needed only the signature of French President Vincent Auriol to become law.Born of riots, strikes and sabotage which have swept France in ever-mounting intensity for three weeks, the bill weathered a stormy passage through the national assembly, France's lower chamber, before it was approved last week.Efforts of Communists \u2014 including a \u201csit-down\u201d strike in the chamber itself \u2014 to block the bill only appeared to steel the majority of deputies to see it through.Then, Saturday morning, after a tumultous, 21-hour session the upper chamber of the French legislature approved the measure 217 to 82.The bill heavily increases the punishments for sabotage and sets up penalties for persons inciting strikes or keeping them going.It will, according to news dispatches, legalize powers the government had already been using for several days in its struggle to break Com- munist-engineered strikes which have brought the total of workers idle in France to more than 2,000,- 000.The three-week wave of strikes, violence and sabotage, which at some points reached a virtual state of anarchy, had already cost more than a score of lives and uncounted millions of dollars in lost production and property damage.URBAN REFORESTATION MOOSE JAW, Sask., (CP)

high in protein.Well-matured soybean seed grown in Ontario or Quebec averages from 35 to 40 per cent of protein, which is nearly four times as much as is contained on the average in seed of wheat, oats or barley grown in the same area and under the same conditions, says F.Dimmock, Division of Forage Plants, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa.Twenty bushels of soybeans per acre will yleld about 430 pounds of protein, so a few acres of this crop is a useful source of farm grown protein during the present protein shortage.Soybeans are being used with satisfaction by many farmers tc provide the protein in the grain ration of dairy cows, as it is both nutritious and highly digestible.While it is not quite as desirable a source of protein as soybean meal, many farmers are finding soybeans are a satisfactory protein supply.Varieties of soybeans are now available that can be grown in most of Ontario and southern Quebec.These include such varieties as AK.Harman, Richland and Earlyana for the area of southwestern Ontario, while Mandarin, Capital, Goldsoy, Kabott and Pagoda may be used in the areas with shorter growing seasons.All are good varieties, and under suitable conditions will produce yields ranging from 20 bushels per acre for the earlier varieties to 30 bushels per acre for the later varieties.As they cover a wide range of maturity, the choice of variety for any particular district is very important.Information concerning varieties and their adaptation can be obtained by writing to the Division of Forage Plants, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa or to the nearest Dominion Experimental Farm.NEW LOOK North Bay, Ont.-(CP)- Should the well-dressed man carry two pairs of gloves when he goes for a stroll?This question was answered in magistrate\u2019s court

William Stewart Quebec, Dec.10, (CP)- Premier Duplessis talked about three projects during the last week, backing up his forecasts of an immense | industrial future unfolding before Quebec.At his Friday press conference last week the Quebec premier told of a plan by interests connected with the Kennecott Copper Corporation, a United States concern, to spend \u201cseveral millions\u201d on a railway line and smelting plant in the area of Havre St.Pierre on the north shore of the St.Lawrence River.The premier mentioned another plan by the Shawinigan Water and Power Company, Limited, for additional hydro-electric development of 385,000 horsepower on the St.Maurice River, north of Three Rivers, Premier Duplessis also said there were several proposals before the government for re-opening the Chi- coutimi pulp mill formerly operated by the Quebec Pulp and Paper Company but idle for several years.The Havre St.Pierre plan is for construction of a railway line about 30 miles long from the St.Lawrence River harbor, about 600 miles below Quebec City, to the location of mineral deposits where the smelting plant will go up.Their operation will mean shipment of up to 2,000 tons of mineral products daily during the navigation season from the river port.The St.Maurice hydro-electric development of La Tranche Rapids would be in addition to 95.000 extra horsepower which the

attention to the fact that while many families in the Old Country are suffering from want of food in any form, and few will have a Christmas dinner, we in this country are deliberately wasting food by such methods as afternoon teas, etc.He had no objection to the ladies gathering for a cup of tea, but instead of tackling four or five kinds of cake and eight to ten kinds of sandwiches, he thought they should be packing food for others instead of into themselves.Liverpool, (N.S.) Advance INFLUENTIAL WEEKLIES More than 61 per cent, or about 7,000,000 Canadians live in places including towns of not more than 10,000 population, which means that probably 4,000,000 people read the rural press every week.Hence the weeklies have an important na- UNEQUITABLE BURDEN Even if the (Ontario Hydro- Electric Power) Commission's economy program ls necessary .it is fair to ask if the method used to implement the saving was well thought out.As it stands now the small business man is bearing a disproportionate share of the burden.Temiskaming (Ont.)

EQUIPMENT LTD.OTTAWA, ONT.BY FRED KERNER Race fan or not, you undoubtedly read some of the scribbles about Stymle when he created a record winning streak of top-stake races to pile up $816,000.Before Stymie there was the Calumet Farm's Whirlaway with a neat sum of $561,000 compiled over the few racing years of his career.Those are, admittedly, neat figures, but it must be remembered they were piled up in a day and age when almost every week during the racing season you can find a $100, 000 stake: winner-take-all.But the top money earner in the equine set in our books is the great Dan Patch, a pacer.Stymie made all his money on the track but Dan Patch, running at a time when stake races were piddling in comparison to what they are today, managed to pile up earnings conservatively estimated at $750,000.Some fans are willing to wager that Dan earned more than $1,000,000.Nowhere in history is it recorded that Stymie was glorified by men smoking \u201c8tymie Cigars\u201d or that placed through local agricultural societies, syndicates and clubs.Evidence given to an arbitration board studying a disagreement between Quebec City's School Commission and its teachers was that the city has one of the lowest percentage of taxable poperty among Canadian municipalities, Two-year-old statistics showed only 19.7 per cent of the city's population was made up of property- holders.Montreal and Verdun had lower figures but their per capita debts were lower than Quebec's whose $200 figure is one of the highest in the country.Inaugural meeting of Quebec's kids whooped over

mare bred to Joe Patchen, which briefly held the world pacing record at 2:01%.Dan Patch topped his sire\u2019s time by six seconds not many years later.Dan won his first race when he was four years old.It was against a couple of unheralded rivals and it was astounding to his owner and the fans.Only twice was Dan Patch headed to the wire, that was in successive years, 1900 and 1901, but after that he had it all his own way.A year later he figured in the record transaction for pacers when a manufacturer of livestock foods puchased him for $60,000.That marked the turning point in the horse's career as well as in the field of advertising.Dan Patch munched the food produced by his owner and he continued to break records on the tracks.As his fame grew so did the advertising compaign built up around him and the product his owner made.He travelled the country in special rallway car, had special grooms, and ran before re- cord-sized crowds.His all-time mark was 155% set in 1905, a mark that stood until Billy Direct knocked off the quar- ter-second in 1838.His greatest mile, done in 1.55, was disallowed because of a minor technicality.In 1909 the great Dan went lame.He was retired to stud

bureau has made changes in defining metropolitan population.Nevertheless, the growth of huge metropolitan areas is steady and strong.A study of 34 metropolitan areas by the census bureau last April indicated they contain one-third of the nations population, The most startling fact to emerge from wartime population studies has been the huge increase in western population.The three Pacific coast

life of people.Almost all clothing fabrics contain at least some percentage of wool, because wool gives elasticity to garments and helps them retain their shape.Wool is highly absorbent and it helps prevent sudden chill by slow evaporation of perspiration; it does not feel damp and uncomfortable against the skin.There is hardly a home that does not have at least a few woollen blankets as bed coverings.Wool has a natural capacity for taking and holding a wide variety of colours.In Huntingdon, there is a mill known as The Huntingdon Woollen Mills Ltd., that manufactures woollen goods exclusively, employs over 250 persons in the process and occupies a large area of buildings.This mill is one of private enterprise and its coming to Huntingdon in 1939, meant much to this town and its people.It has provided employment for the people steadily since that time and has continually expanded.Ever seeking to keep its workpeople employed, this firm is turning more extensively to the manufacture of woollen blankets.It is not a new departure for this firm made blankets for the armed forces all during the war, but it now intends to make the type that will fit civilian needs, it intends to seek new markets for this type of product.As new markets are secured, more production will be needed.As production soars, more employment will be available.By working into this type of production there is greater likelihood of its employees being sure of keeping their jobs\u2014Iless likelihood of shutdowns during depressed periods.Wool is used in all types of climates and thus is internationally needed\u2014so markets can be sought in all parts of the world for such a product.When the market may be poor in one part\u2014it is good in another.With such a wide scope in which to work, Huntingdon Woollen Mills Ltd.is showing that private enterprise will always find a way to improve its situation and keep up a high standard of employment.To the people of Huntingdon this means much for their welfare and benefit.With good conditions of employment prevailing, not only does the worker prosper, but so do the business places who depend upon the worker to buy their goods.Indirectly it helps other manufacturers and distributors of the goods supplied to the workers.It also creates demands for services and goods used in the operation of the mill and thus provides employment for other workers in various lines of occupation.All of which makes Huntingdon prosperous and progressive.Since Huntingdon Woollen Mills Ltd.first located here, the Town of Hunting- don has increased in number of buildings and businesses and also in population.a # Popular Rugs Lt - Wednesday, December 10th, 1947 PECL AET ST HYLTS Suggested The Huntingdon Gleaner Free Cattle Herd of Page

Destroy In those days national hatreds, national fears, national armaments, and national wars broke down the feeble efforts of a few to establish world peace.Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo adopted those ruthless methods of \u201cdivide and destroy\u201d.The only counter to those tactics, \u201cunite and survive\u201d, was rejected and war came.A Second World War has been fought and is behind us, but what are we doing today to avoid what will be the greatest of all wars.Peace is Indivisible Two things are essential: (1) Recognition that peace is indivisible and that security must be organized on a collective basis \u2014 only in this way can we secure freedom from fear.(2) Recognition that prosperity also is indivisible and that we cannot achieve it nationally at the expense of our neighbours \u2014 only in this way can we secure freedom from want.At the peace conferences that are now going on, more attention must be paid to the economic needs of today and less to the political considerations of yesterday.Peace sits uneasily on an empty stomach.Let us not again sacrifice it in the name of extreme economic nationalism.: Attlee I believe that further wars can only be avoided through the education of the people for peace.Prime Minister Attlee, at the opening of the UNESCO Conference in London, expressed this idea very aptly: \u201cSince wars begin in the ds of men, it is in the minds of mén that the defences of peace must be constructed.\u201d Education Since I maintain that education can bring about permanent peace you might well ask me, \u201cIs education responsible for the current world situation?What has education done or failed to do to make tem, together with its ramified institutions and organizations, has made great contributions to the spread of knowledge, the utilization of natural resources and the advancement of culture.It can justifiably claim to have moulded the lives of our familles, communities and nations.One of the contributions of modern education has been to make our youth conscious of their rights and responsibilities as local and national citizens.It has succeeded in inculcating patriotism in their breasts toward their own countries.In democratic nations, schools have also taught certain principles of local and national democracy with varying degrees of success.It is largely through our school systems that modern democracies have come into being and have continued to function, but in too many cases, patriotism has been distorted to mean the hatred of every country except one\u2019s own \u2014 nationalism, the supremacy of one's nation over all others and democracy, something to be practiced in one's own race, class, religion, or nationality but to be denied all others.\u201cMy country, right or wrong,\u201d or \u201cmy country can do no wrong\u201d has been stressed altogether too much in our schools and our political thinking.It was the insistence on the preservation of complete national sovereignty that made it impossible for the League of Nations to succeed and unless we change the emphasis of the teaching of political principles in our schools, we will never overcome this insistence of nationalism and we will not avoid future wars of mutual extermination.The school has properly sought to inculcate the principles of self-re- liance, self-support, diligence and prudence in dealing with the problems of making a living.It has encouraged our youth to utilize economic resources and scientific inventions and it has equipped them with the knowledge and skill of organization on a large scale with the result that the standard of living in industrialized countries has been raised to a level undreamed of in past centuries \u2014 but in accomplishing this far-reaching advance, have we really made human beings happier than before?If not, edu- catiorr has not achieved its purpose.The popular emphasis on success Sunday and he hears during the other six days of the week that monetary gain is the real measure of success, he is likely to foresake ordinary scruples and make a dash for riches.Confucius said: \u201cIf a plant is exposed one day to warmth and ten days to cold, it cannot possibly thrive.\u201d Maybe, in time the ideals of making economic pursuits a service to mankind rather than a means of exploiting one's fellowmen will become uppermost in the minds of our youth, when they have been taught in our schools the necessity of cooperation and have learned to play the game with others, but this end can only be reached by a seven day application of the motto \u2014 service above self.Education has brought men to a point where they can see the unity of interest of such large groups as a corporation, a community, or a nation, but it has definitely failed to overcome certain cherished prejudices and discriminations based upon race, color, religion, economic, and social status, thus leaving mankind divided and highly vulnerable.The hopes of a better future world order lie partly in the revision of the contents of education to meet new needs.Education must be directed at the inculcation of ideas and ideals as well as practical plans which can correct the political, economic and social ills of our times.We must train our people to discharge satisfactorily their responsi bilities as citizens of local communities, nations and the world.With the development of our fast means of transportation, of the radio and scientific knowledge, people of the different nations have been brought so closely together thet we can consider a flative of China as our next door neighbor.We are, therefore, ipso facto citizens of the world, just as national citizens are at the same time local citizens of their own communities, so world citizens are national and local citizens.but since very few of us yet realize our function as world citizens, education on a world basis is a necessity of the greatest importance.Through education we must inculcate in the minds, particularly of the youth, certain moral or ethical elements.We must stress the interdependence of mankind and to make this other than our own.In other words, we must not only take a direct interest in these matters of such vital importance but we must aid every other organization which has the same purpose in mind.I know that it is difficult sometimes for the people of the Province of Quebec to realize the prejudices and hatreds that exist between the nations on the other side of the Atlantic because we, in this Province of Quebec where there are two dominant races, each using its own language, have learned to work in harmony, with respect and tolerance for each other.We have our differences of opinion but they are settled around, what I might call, the conference table and through our association one with the other, we are gradually realizing that we are Canadian citizens first and foremost.We have only one step further to go to realize that we are world citizens with world responsibilities and we are realizing that we ntust assume those responsibilities if we wish to establish permanent peace in the world.achievements of nations P O
