NEwsiaccolto FADE FOUR
THE UNIFORM OF THE RCAF—whether
It be the winter blue or the summer khaki—
has become e familiar sight on the streets of
Clinton and Bayfield. Perhaps it has become
SO much part of the general scenery that the
person inside it is taken etoo much,for granted!
That may be partly true. But the citizens
of this community will be able to rectify the
situation—to some extent at least—by lending
their attendance "in the body",this Saturday,
June 14, on the occasion of "ir Force Day",
at the lovely Station Clinton. It will be i`open
Mouse" and everyone will be welcome,
The purpose of Air Force Day is to give
the public an opportunity of Seeing exactly
what their Air Force is doing to ensure nation-
al defence, Since Station Clinton is the only
telecommunications training establishment in
the RCAF, it plays a vital role in the peace-
time Air Force,

Clinton Featured On Radio Programme
THE EDITOR of this Great,Family Journal
Was the guest editor on the "Town and
Country" programme over radio station CFPL
at 10,05 a.m. Sunday, June 8. The broadcast
Was directed by Roy Jewell, Director of Farm
Services, for OFPL.
e For the sake of posterity and any of our
readers who were not "privileged" to hear
us before the microphone, we beg leave to
publish the script, as follows:
In behalf of the Clinton News-Record, the
people of Clinton and district, and the per-
sonnel of RCAF Station, Clinton, I appreciate
greatly being on your programme this morn-
ing.
Canada is making great strides forward
and so is this twin-community of Clinton and
the RCAF Station.
Cfonstruction Programme—
In the town itself, the current building
programme includes a new $310,000 public
school; a new Canadian Legion Hall; and a
new $30,000 artificial ice plant in Clinton
Lions Arena. The total value of these and
other construction projects in Clinton is close
to half a million dollars.
On the adjoining Air Force Station, a tre-
mendous construction programme is under way,
the total cost being about $12,000,000, which
will supplement the present large group of
buildings which have served since the Station
first was opened back in 1941,
Newspaper Service—
The community is well served by a week-
ly newspaper, The CLINTON NEWS-RECORD,
which last Friday, June 6, celebrated its 87th
birthday anniversary, the first issue of The
CLINTON .NEW ERA having been published
on June 6, 1865, Incidentally, in the "Better
Newspapers Competitions" conducted in 1951
by the Canadian Weekly NeWspapers Associa-
tion, The NEWS-RECORD stood fourth in
Canada for best all-round newspaper in its
circulation class.
Recreational Facilities—
With a view • to improving recreational
facilities for the children, the Parks Board has -
constructed it wading pool in Community Park,
and the official opening is scheduled to take
place tomorrow afternoon (Monday, June 9ele
But the Clinton Lions Club is embarkeirs
on a major project—the installation of modern
artificial ice equipment in the Arena. The
Lions have owned and operated the Arena for
seven years, having rescued it from —the
wrecker's hands in the _fall of 1945 when the
building was bought to save it for the younger
generation.
Artificial Ice Campaign—
Natural ice has been in use, and after one
or two disastrous seasons, the Lions have come
to the conclusion that artificial ice is the only
answer. With this in view, the Club members
have been organized and are now starting on
a campaign to, raise $30,000 for the project.
As an indication of their own sincerity in the
matter, the Liens already have subscribed more
than $6,000 to get the ball rolling. They are
calling on the substantial support of the resi-
dents Of town and district in reaching the ob-`
jective. Such donations are subject to Federal
income tax deductions, it has been ruled.
The Ontario Municipal Board has approv-
ed the issue of $310,000 debentures for the
erection of a modern public school on a lovely
seven-acre site on the eastern outskirts of the
town. Following third reading of the de-
benture bylaw by the Town Council, it is ex-
pected that a formal order will be issued by
the Municipal Board immediately, The con-
tract has been let and construction will start
at once, with completion likely a' year from
now.
RCAF Station, Clinton— •
Now, more about Station Clinton, one of
the most important stations in the RCAF! Most
peorlle realize the pervasive nature of elect-
ronics in all Air Force and defence operations
in Canada today, and. Clinton is the only
electronics-training establishment in the RCAFe
There has been an increase in the Station
establishment, having accelerated rapidly in the
past year, with the end now in sight. I under-
stand that there are about 2,000 personnel on
the Station at the present time. All told, there
are at leaSt 3,000 persons living or working
at the Station—more than the total population
of the Town of Clinton.
Don't Forget Air Force Day!
Just as a parting plug, let me urge you
to give.. your Air Force personnel, a big lift
by being their guests at Station Clinton's "open
house" on Air Force Day, next Saturday, June
o 14, during afternoon and evening!
Twenty Million Canadians
IN ANOTHER 20 years•at the present rate,
of growth, Canada's population will reach 20
millions, says The Financial Post. This will
mean more people to buy more goods. "Thin"
markets will "fatten", producing in ,larger
quantities. _Spreading the vast overhead of fix-
ed costs, many Canadian heavy industries will
achieve higher efficiency. Costs will come
more into line with U.S. costs. There will
be more room for true Canadian design — in
furniture, in clothes, and in household equip-
ment.
Manufacturing will show the greatest
growth and will use most of the additional
labor force, Little of the population increase
will flow to the farms, The same number of
farms will have 40 per cent mr Canadians to
ALBERTA OIL production continues to
break all previous records, reports The Finan-
cial Post. It is now close to 200,000 barrels
daily, which is about half the oil this country
uses M. a day.

THE VOICE, OF
TEMPERANCE
Much is being made today of
the importance of education in, the temperance campaign. Let
the people be informed about
alcohol, Is it a food or is it a poison? is it a narcotic or is it
a stimulant? Surely no one is
so simple as to suppose, that if
the public knew all that is to be
known about alcohol, the prob-
lem that alcohol has created
would be solved. Alcoholics know
that alcohol is killing 'them but
they keep on drinking. Moderate
drinkers know that alcohol is a.
habit-forming beverage but they
keep on drinking, Car drivers
know that alcohol lessens their
efficiency as car drivers but they
keep on drinking, The govern,
ment knows that alcohol is pub',
lic nuisance number one, but it
keeps on tolerating it. Education
is not enough. Knowledge is not
enough, How to- get people to
do as they know—that's the sixty,
four dollar question. Thp only
sane conclusion to the matter is
that wisdom is in abstinence.

feed. Home,,markets for agricultural produce
will loom larger. Probably wheat will be the
only farm product which will still have to look
to export. And if we use our heads and 'help
to develop backward countries now, we
shouldn't 'have much trouble finding markets
for surplus crops 20 years from now. The
problem of export markets for farm produce
should be small, and farm prices relatively
good.
