This past week I heard a farmer make a remark “Watch out for those foreigners. They'll soon have us out of business." Without bothering to count to 10, without stopping .ito think, I gave him what for. This week I am not writing an apology, far from it. He ought, at his age, to know better. He was at least 60 years old. Yes, he was born 30 years too .soon. Perhaps he has never been beyond yon hill. We say “too bad”. What do the “New Canadians" mean to the agricultural indus­ try in this area, Everything! Much more 'than one at first realizes. To begin with they are an average man with great fore­ sight. True some of the “New Canadians” are simply adventur­ ers and opportunists. In our heart, we know we should hot judge the many thousands of honest, hard - working men and women bjr the few bad ones who get by the screening board of immigration authorities. ‘ What do we mean by "New Canadians”? It is a term that could be applied to all our fore­ fathers. They were all “New Canadians". We are simply the descendants of “New Canadians”. The man who made the thought­ less remark, and others like him, should not forget that. Your new neighbor is perhaps a “New Ca­ Topics From Cred it on By AIRS. J. WOODALL Agriculture and Canadian In­ dustries was the theme of the meeting of the Women’s Institute in the council chambers on Wed­ nesday evening. President Mrs. R. Motz presided and roll call was responded to with answers to “Why farm women should have a holiday". It was decided to purchase extra dishes, and to place insurance on W.I. kitchen equipment.

As far as we can see—excellent! Very few of them on arrival, especially the older ones, could speak little or no English. Many of them arrived here in straight­ ened financial circumstances. Many of them had a trade or pro­ fession. If they left agriculture at the first opportunity to return to their trade or profession, we heartily endorse this move. If they were agriculturists by pro­ fession, who can condemn them for wishing to better their way of life by starting- a farm of their own? If they seem to be out­ stripping their neighbors at the businesss of farming, then those so-called foreigners in the opin­ ion of this column should not be condemned, rather they should be applauded. And their neighbors should pitll up their socks and get on with the job of making a living. This column at this time takes great pleasure in saluting our new neighbors and we hope our friends. Perhaps one day during our travels over the past years we were a visitor in your coun­ try. We have been in many dif­ ferent ones and were always made welcome. DID YOU KNOW? About 70% of Dutch emi­ grants with farming as their principal experience, have come to Canada during the 19 4 8-53 period. In all more than 163,000 persons have left the Nether­ lands and during the last two years, one out of four have been professional farmers who left because of the limited area of cultivated land that is available —Country Guide.

Forum Hears Reform Talk On Monday night, Mr. Tom Pryde was the guest speaker for Fairfield Farm Forum at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Powe. Twenty-seven members listened to an interesting and in­ structive address on Mr. Pryde’s recent visits to the reform schools and jails. There are homes where a couple will act as parents to about 25 young people who are being punished by the law, Mr. Pr'yde said. Some of these are the only homes these young people ever know. He spoke of the methods being used now to educate and rehabilitate those who run afoul of the law. Mr. Pryde asked for sympathy and help in dealing with these problems and stressed the fact that broken homes void of any Christian influences, are the source from which criminals usually come. He believes that sparing the rod may spoil a child, but corporal punishment should be used only when it is a benefit to the child. He also said that some old re­ probates who had served their term and were free would com­ mit some act in order to get bae.k into jail in a few days. One man returned 3 7 times. A contest was held and card games enjoyed.
