Let the people be informed about alcohol, Is it .0 food or is it poison? es. It a narcotic or is it a stimulant? Surely no one is so simple as to suppose, that If the ptibiic knew all that is to be known about alcohol, the probe lem that alcohol has created would be solved, Alcoholics know that alcohol is killing 'them. but they keep pn 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- enent knows that alcohol is pube lie nuisance number one, but it keeps on tolerating it. Education, is not enough. Knowledge is not enough, How to- get people to dp es they know—that's the eixty-, four dollar question. The only sane conclusion to the matter is that wisdom is in abstinence.

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 he 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 more Canadians to Amalgamated /934 An Independent Newspaper devoted to the Interests of the Town .of Clinton and Surrounding District Population, 0,00; Tradieg Akea, 1.0,Q00; Retall,Market, $2,090,000; Rate, 04 per line flat Sworn Circulation --.• e,106.

S. ATKEY, Editor and Business Manager A.• L. COLQUHOUN, Plant Manager THE UNIFORM OF THE RCAF—whether it be the winter blue or the summer khaki— has become a familiar sight on the streets of Clinton and Hayfield, Perhaps it has become so much part of the general scenery that the person inside it is taken too 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 "Air Force Day", at the lovely Station Clinton. It will be eopen house" 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. 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. 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. construction 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.

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 generatie Artificial Ice Canineign— 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 Lidns 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 peoPle 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 e 14, during afternoon and evening! Produce Half Our Oil 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 in a day, Electronics is the theme of the programme at Station Clinton, and as many displays as possible are being arranged to provide a picture of this impor,ant and complex field. Apart from electronics, there will be in- numerable displays and activities which will be cif interest to all age groups. Clinton's fly- ing display will consist both of acrobatic and formation flying,/ with Harvarcls, Mustangs, Expeditors and Dakotas, in action. Station Clinton has been extremely forte unate in obtaining a CF-100 Canuck jet frofn AVRO of Canada, for the air show. This all- weather long-range fighter is an .all-Canadian product, powered by two Canadian Orenda jet engines. Give the men and women of the RCAF a "lift" by attending Air Force Day at Station Clinton this coming Saturday, June 14. Every- thing is free, including a draw on a fine radio combination console.
