■ ;< It has. been said that thie
typists for authors make a copy
of a whole novel yet have no
idea of what the story is.
I wonder if news reporters
deal; the same way wiith news
J StqrieSjjIf they dbn’t it must be
a terribly frustrating job.
Here are some news items
that T have fun 'across dh’ re
cent months. There were two'
on- 11:00 p.m. TV news, June
23. • .
A report of an inquest in our
area. Mr..— died of. a fractured
skull and7 broken neck which
he received in a’car accident.
The driver had been drinking
beer and missed a corner; The

came the bride of Omer Joseph

ensemble in . street-length* and
wore a matching crown with-

The second: .- a „__o

previous theft charges was sen
tenced to $4 months in jail. ■ -
These Charges are ’ serious,' I
admit, and must be punished
but have .you1'ever heard of an

tence of 34 month's in jail .even
when Several-'are'killed?
■ It seems that it is worse to
drive' recklessly when you don’t
,haye>. an accident’ and When no
one is killed; p.^icul^rly if the
driVer is sober.. •_
I’m .'sure a reporter who
,thinks about the events he re-
pdft's must-go .“wacky” before
long. • ■
Reporting is hot the-only oc
cupation that- can drive a per

too much. The only saving force

FARMERS, THINKING OF

is a particularly strong sense
of hurpbur.
Farming is ■ one of those oc
cupations. .
Let’s put a few news items
together: ,
—-Farmers should stay away
from -livestock processing be
cause it is a low profit busin
ess;
—Canada Packers’ profits in
creased by 5%' in 1965;
—FAME directors failed to
seek the advice of Co-Paco
management in organizing' their
program;
—-Co-Paco faced with bank
ruptcy, is granted $200,000
credit by.Ontario Government.
(This I understand has been in
creased to $600,000.);
— Ontario Government refus
es to provide credit to retain
the Fearman Co. for Ontario
* farmers;
—-Farmers will receive $4.
for milk;
; —Charges for hauling m-ilk
increased up to fifty percent;
—The Federal Government
will pay a subsidy of 75c pea’
cwt. on manufacturing milk, to
bring the returns, to farmers up
from the current price to the
$4.00 minimum;.
. —pue tb- the increased' price
of milk the price per quart goes
up 2 c per quart.
Weli, I guess I’d better quit
remembering of I’ll be ’’wacky”
■like the reporter who 'thinks
too “much.

TB TREATMENT
IMPROVED
The mistaken belief by many
people that tuberculosis has
been all but conquered is one
of the biggest problems in con
trolling the disease, according
to the Canadian Medical Asso
ciation. The public forms .this
impression, when they see the
number of empty beds in tuberT
culosis hospitals, but feiw under
stand this is merely a result
of improved treatment methods
'which reduce' confinement per-'
iods.
