Agriculture's most important commodity is its young people, Agriculture Minister William A. Stewart told the audience at the second graduation exercises of the Centralia College of Agricultural Technology, Wednesday. "You have been shown the way you have been exposed to the best educational facilities that society could provide and now the rest is up to you." He warned the 70 graduates that their diplomas do not say "success guaranteed or your money refunded" but are symbols of ability, potential and achievement. "It is a fact that there are more unemployed in Canada today than in many years," he said, Photo by Doerr GRADUATES Alan Wright, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Wright, Ailsa Craig, graduated recently from Centralia College of Agricultural Technology as an Animal Health Technician.

It was the only political note in the ceremony, which included the official opening of Ontaro's sixth veterinary services diagnostic laboratory at the school. The laboratory has been in operation for several weeks, Mr. Stewart said, and will continue to act as "home base" for animal health studies. It will also be used as a conference and training centre for local veterinarians and livestock and poultry associations as well as students. Provincial Treasurer Charles MacNaughton, who shared in ribbon-cutting ceremonies at the laboratory's opening with Mr. Stewart, said the Centralia development, which in addition to the college, includes the first industrial park project in Ontario located in a slow-growth area, "gives me one of the greatest satisfactions."
