GLADWYN HOOPER Classified Ads Pay Turnips make the headline in our column this week, And it all started like this: Following a meeting of turnip growers held here recently, Reeve R. E. Pooley came into the T.A. office to tell us what went on at the meeting. Knowing my interest in re­ cipes, Re showed me a colorful little recipe folder prepared by the Women’s Institute Branch under the title, "The Delectable Canadian Rutabaga.’’ Quoting from it, "turnips are a very good source of vitamin "C” or ascorbie acid. This is especially true when turnips are eaten raw. Some of the vitamins The Reader Comments Letters to the editor published Jiereunder represent the views of individual persons. We invite our readers to make use of this column. Congratulations should be ex­ tended to the teachers of the public schools of modern times, a splendid job is being done to educate the citizens of tomorrow. The present Board of Education has planned its curriculum well, and we feel that our students of today are receiving a complete and thorough education, But what is lacking, in the education of the present genera­ tion, the fathers and business men of today? What has been missed in their curriculum? We do believe, if the words ignor­ ance, cooperation and politeness had been explained with more detail, this generation would have been a better one. There is a saying that a per­ son can be two faced, but did you ever realize that a person can also be two headed. One crammed with intelligence and the other crammed with ignor­ ance. It is hard to believe that persons who are highly intelli­ gent can also have the minds of small children. If some of the children, when they were out, acted like their parents, the parents would be thoroughly embarrassed, and would more than likely take them home. It is too bad the parents them­ selves don’t realize that in the eyes of their fellow men they are by no means being con­ gratulated for their unruly be­ havior. It stands to reason that a fool’s mind makes a good clown, but an intelligent man acting like a clown can only be classed as ignorant. It is too late now for curricu­ lar education to do any justice, but might we suggest that a little Child Psychology could be useful.

Results I Results of this kind neighbor category are well illustrated by a dog we once had. In his 18 long years, he acquired a taste for delicacies from countless cuisines in the city where we lived. When he was bored with life around home and a carefully planned diet (which, by the way, kept him slim and actively happy), he’d just take off to do the rounds. He must have had more friends in the city than the mayor. By the time his binge was over, he’d flop back home, looking, to quote one of the family, .like a distorted watermelon. Everyone Suffered The whole family suffered for the folly of his weak moment. The hangover was sometimes prolonged to three days when he would moan and groan when anyone passed, ignore any food and generally spread misery throughout the household. Here was the intemperate victim of demon habit, probably started by some kindly lover who just couldn’t see that poor thin little hungry. And habits created wrong kind of animal don’t stop there. For instance, take the case of the dog gourmet who divided his life, a month or so at a time between two families several miles apart. Probably all started by a member of the second family who thought the dog needed a good square meal. The lover of other people’s ani­ mals will never know until he gets a prize pup of his own, just what havoc can be caused by a carelessly placed scrap of meat here or a crumb of stew there.,—»--------—---------------- SECRETARY REQUIRED for of­ fice in Exeter, capable of taking shorthand and typing.
