The author, a grade 13 student from Clinton has treated his sub- ject with commendable originality. It was a damp, dreary night when I continued my journey from Salem to Shreveport. The moon was low, surrounded in all its fullness by. a hazy, yellow ring. From the forest came the mon- otonous hoot of an owl and far off the blood-curdling howl of the slurking timber wolf, stalking its unsuspecting prey. Through the trees I could see a small stream of light straining through the fog like grain flow- ing from a sack slit by a knife. Then I heard, it! For a moment I stood frozen with fear, not knowing which way to turn. Again I heard it and now I was sure it was a human shriek. Slowly I crept towards the spot from where the insane laughter came, and soon found myself before the cold stone walls of an ancient cattle. The light I had followed through the forest was the only one to be seen and protruded from a small barred window in the gar- ret. Cautiously I let myself into the courtyard. No one was to be seen. Then from a distance, I could hear the faint jingle of metal as from a captive's chain. Up the garret steps I crept till before me spread a stream of light from under a thick oak door. Inside could be heard the same jingle of metal I had ob- served in the courtyard. Peering through the keyhole I could see a short, sobbing, hunchbacked dwarf of four feet, surrounded by stacks of American gold dol- lars. Then I could see why this creature was so dejected and half-crazed. On the table before him was a newspaper with the headline, "American Dollar Dr- ops In Value In Canada" JOHN WILSON CitiCrti 'YOUR FAVOURITE BEVERAGE CLINTON NEWS-RECORD PAGE ' THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1.3, 1952. ihf,-* s-4-0-41b,s-oim Competitive Prices, Personal Service of the BACK SHOP PETER mearreove-are-vrellie meaning of Upper and Lower Canada, and when British Col- umbia joined the Confederation, or for that matter, the date when Newfoundland joined Canada. 0 Now, asRI a ED small mouse making just a tiny squeak in the midst of hasty comings and goings in the great wide world—we'd like to suggest that perhaps this is a good thing. Perhaps the • comic strips are the best way to in- culcate knowledge. Wouldn't Canadian youth just love a good course in Canadian de- velopment? Wouldn't they read avidly an account of the great doings out by the Fan- shawe Dam, northeast of London? or the drainage de- velopments in the Q'Appelle Valley? D EKI Personally, we'd read like an eager beaver any pictorial ad- venture concerning the new St. Lawrence Seaway. Given a hero like Hopalong, Tartan, or just a pair of ordinary joes like Tim Tyler and his friend, a good car- toonist could make an exciting comic strip; and Canadians could read about themselves for a change. We don't know though— maybe we should stick to the American strips—they sure are fun—and educational, too, Obituary GEORGE BEATTY JAMES MOSE DRUG STORES States of America; we wager the publie who buys the pap- er is 90 per cent Canadian; the paper is dedicated to Western Ontario readers; it is edited by Canadians; writ- ten by Canadians, for Can- adians. El 5 0 This one page referred to above is arranged particularly for the enjoyment of children. When all the dots had been properly con- nected, the picture was one of a pair of soldiers, coming through shellfire, over the top of a ridge, in Korean-like territory, bearing the Stars and Stripes. The spel- ling of the word "honor" in the caption below it was the Ameri- can way, rather than "honour," the English spelling. 0 D 11 Immediately beside this American battle scene was a puzzle which when cut out and folded properly would reveal "Washington" as the state which "was admitted to the Union Nov. 11, 1889," 40 El 0 Certainly, Canadian children know their southern neighbours well. They know at once what is meant by the word "Union" and store this latest bit of knowledge about Washington away in their subconscious.
