Dr- Charles Thompson will ex­ amine for defective eyesight and hearing. Provision for defective speech cases —- those not caused ■by mental retardation—will be a new feature this year. Miss C. McGowan is represent­ ing the Society on the commit­ tee. The need for foster homes is becoming emphasized by the So­ ciety, .and an appeal is being made for these. Children who, for various rea­ sons, are not adoptable, must be placed in well-chosen foster homes, which must have both parent, love, happiness and seur- ityr with an adequate standard of living. Foster parents receive $18 a month, and the society assumes full responsibility for all medical, dental, and clothing requirements. Last year, the society super­ vised 178 children in their own homes, so that they would not have to become wards. There were 3 2 unmarried mothers who WINCHELSEA Mr. and Mrs. W.

These are the figures which are supposed to tell who’s listening to the radio, when, and to what station. Different sur­ vey firms have been issuing sta­ tistics on the same program, in the -same area, over the same •station, but with an entirely dif­ ferent rating. This had looked like a hot topic. A committee investigating the subject report­ ed, however, that they could find very little to complain of in this inasmuch as the different statisticians need not have tak­ en their survey sample on the same day, and therefore the re­ sults could not be expected to be the same. That took the steam out of everybody’s counter­ arguments and left the indust­ ry’s enthusiasm for surveys only slightly dampened.* * ALTHOUGH THE ENCB AGENDA was most entirely to radio sales and management, I picked up a few program ideas while the meeting was discussing two-way tele­ phone conversations. C K N W , New Westminster, B.C., runs a show Sunday night named “Call the Pastor”. Idea is that a min­ ister of the calmly-confident- fireside-chat type takes the air and invites listeners to tele­ phone him and discuss their problems. The listeners remain anonymous. The audience hears both sides of the telephone con­ versation, for alm area. ** CONFER- devoted al- Sounds like a natural o s t any metropolitan * * * PRESIDENT, Malcolm CFNB, Fredericton, New gave Parliament and the CBC a raking over the coals for what he called the “com­ pletely impractical restrictions on the free enterprise development of TV° and called on Ottawa to “allow private radio to provide television service to all parts of the country at no expense to the taxpayer”.

Mr. Gates was playing with his wife at the time. Elated over his success, Mr. Gates immed­ iately laid claim to the title of the “World’s Best Cribbage Player” although he readily ad­ mitted his wife beats him “oc­ casionally”.
