Warden's Banquet "Family" Affair
(Continued from Page Five)
lingbon-Huron, "no doubt in-
volved in their duties in the
House."
"The present warden," he
said, "has observed the highest
traditions of his predecessors.
May I on behalf of the mem-
bers of Parliament and _the
Legislature express thanks for
the friendly co-operation and
partnership that has been so
evident. I am sure the federal
members would join me in pay-
ing the warden a well-deserved
tribute for his tireless efforts
and steady judgment." (Ap-.
plause).
Rev. Robert Bisset gave • a
thought-provoking talk on the
importance of orderly planning.
Stresses Planning
"Vast numbers of people in
It comes to mind that we
had an idyllic time when we
were taken out of the bush at
the command of The Ontario
Department of Lands and For-
ests on account of forest fires,
and so to speak, laid "on the
beach" for a couple of weeks
art Pickle Lake, in Northern
Ontario.
Half of the day's work was
to get out of bed and get ches-
sed. The other half was to get
undressed and get back into
the sack. In 'the meantime, all
one had to do was wander
down to the only hotel in the
village and get slashed with
beer. Having done so, one
weaved back up to the roost in
an old abandoned bakery build-
ing, partook of the best that a
bush cook could do with the
best grub available on the open
market (The HudSon Bay
Company) and go back to the
hotel.
Of course this got pretty
monotonous in a deadly kind of
way, and even the most alcoh-
Africa and Asia," he said,
"know little of planning, but
in the western world planning
is very mudh a part of our
Childhood plans for
youth, youth for marriage, and
then there is what they call
planned parenthood — I don't
know much about this — and
after marriage we begin to plan
for old age and retirement; so
much of our time as individuals
and organizations is devoted to
planning and to ways and
means of planning."
He related the planning of a
high school girl who told her
mother she intended to marry
four times a banker, an actor,
a clergyman and an undertak-
er—"ane for the money, two
for the show, three to get ready
and four to go."
He cited Old Testament pre-
olic of our number opted to
take some other form of diver-
sion, even playing horseshoes.
It was while engaged in this
healthy and wholesome pursuit
that I discovered that office
politics are not left behind
When one strikes into the bush
with packsack and grubhoe.
My partner and I were play-
ing against another pair, one
of Whom was the senior geolog-
ist of the company, and there-
fore in charge of the explora-
tion crews and hiring and fir-
ing of the prospectors, of which
I was one.
The game was pretty well
neck-and-neck' when I manag-
ed, more by luck than good
management, to get a "ringer".
The senior geologist was stand-
ing beside me. He turned and
said, firmly but quietly:
"You don't care if you work
next year or not, do you?"
Needless to say, I did not
get any ringers for the rest
of fihe afternoon. Like, why
fly in the face of fate ?
oedents: Moses' systematic
promotion" to get the Israelites
out of Egypt; Joshua's ingen-
dity in capturing the promised
land; David's planning of the
temple, which his son was to
build.
"History impels us to plan,"
he continued. "We have just
come, I believe, to the end of
an age. It is not given to many
generations to have this ex-
perience. Planning is deeply
involved. It started thousands
of years ago. Sometime, •some
Where, somehow a person
learned the uses of a lever.
Man discovered he could con-
trol the growth of things and
no longer depend on roots and
berries; he could begin to live
in a community. In' order to
market products, he loaded
himself down like a beast of
burden. For centuries, things
remained much the same. Man
produced food for himself and
something over for others.
Discovery of the wheel was
revolutionary. Man learned a-
bout irrigation. ' Eventually
came electric power, but man
still had his feet on 'the soil.
"Planning is essential no
matter what area of life is
under consideration. We must
plan because the former pat-
terns are outmoded. Many in
stlitutions we have known in
the past have changed. There
have been population shifts
from town to city, from coun-
try to town. There is the
decadence of small business,
consolidation of schools at cent-
ral points, largescale develop-
ment of once small co-opera-
tives, a general centralization
of people in matters of educa-
tion, recreation, and so on. The
family farm is gradually dying
out. All these things have
brought new pressures upon us.
We plan because our experien-
ces have been disillusioning.
"We plan to get us together
for brotherhood This thing we
call fellowship is the primary
impulse of our lives. During
the Whole history of Christen-
dom we were for the most part
isolated, exclusive people; in-
clusive only so far as people
decided to adopt our way of
life. But this concept has end-
ed. The American people with-
in the past decade have realiz-
ed that isolation is outmoded.
In this world we depend upon
each other for everything we
have; for our security, world
and personal safety. People
can no longer live as they
sought to live in the past. We
are facing problems our fathers
and grandfathers never thought
of. We have many of the same
old problems, of course, but we
have a great host of new ones,
and the only way, nationally or
globally, in church or economic
or social life, is for planning
to take a great part"
Presentation
On behalf of county council,
Delbert Geiger and Roy Adair
presented Warden and Mrs.
Jewell with a chest of silver.
"My wife and I will renter-re
ber this evening as one of the
highlights of the year," Mr.
Jewell said. I would particul-
arly thank Mr. Berry, Mr.
Hanley and members of the
warden's committee who helped
plan this banquet, and the
chairman of the meeting, Mr.
Forbes, and Mr. Bisset for a
splendid address we all enjoy-
ed very much.
"I have enjoyed being war-
den. It has been an interest-
ing and educational experience.
I have attended in the neigh-
borhood of 200 meetings, and
I know that next year, when
I have time to reminisce, there
will be many enjoyable incid-
ents recalled. I have really en-
