Then the mint will make direct Shipments to all the provinces and territories by April 1, 1967. Departments of education will redistribute to all their ' schools for presentation toward the end of the school year. For Indian children, attend ing federal schools, the mint will make direct shipments to those schools operated' by the federal government.

The new TV season is with us and we have had. the opportunity of seeing the latest offerings on the three American and two Canadian networks. So, what’s new in program ming? Not much, really. We still have comedies, westerns, mysteries, documentaries and newscasts. The. one thing that IS new for Canadians is colour. It's here and it’s tre mendous. I dare anyone to ask their local TV dealer to put a colour set in the livingroom for a ten-day trail (even five days) and you’ll never go back to black and white. It’s better than .the downtown theatres, because it’s in your own home. So much for colour. What about the things to come? Tel evision has' done just about everything you can think of. All types of dramas, comedies', mySteties, suspense shows, on- the-spot news events, U.S. Sen ate investigations, interviews with Presidents, statesmen, prostitutes, homosexuals and drug addicts . . . Inaugurations of 'all types; the funeral of a President; and astronauts: in in action ,, . . you .name: it,’ Tel evision was there? * c ? iSo, what’is left? I can think of one spectacular that will certainly be covered ‘live’ and' in colour by television. If it doesn’s happen during the third world war, it cer tainly will take place during the fourth one. You will be able to sit in your 'livingroom and watcih the war “in action”. Im agine seeing your loved ones killed1 before your eyes. Unbe lievable? Not really. It may not happen an our time, but our children, or our children’s child ren, will experience it. I’ll ibet on it. -----------o----------- 68-YEAR-OLDS NOW ELIGIBLE you are 68 years of age year and can meet rest- ' If this dence requirements,' you should send your ately your 1967. vailable at any post office. in your application for old age security immedi- so that you will receive first cheque in January Application forms, are a- ,-s -s “x ■s -r—r KONGSKILDE CROP DRYER Maintain protein values, eliminate storage losses.
