Fifty per cent thought they had, as East Wa- wanosh has had school area priveleges for some years. Regarding the scarcity of teachers, it was said that salary and working conditions would have to compete favourably with other elm- ployment. The Forum was then addressed by Mr, George Orvis and Mr. Joe Clark, of the Luc-Tee-Win Club of Wingham on the subject of conservation of bird life, fish, floods and farm ponds. They said that 29 streams in 6 adjacent townships had been stocked with fish, and that 112 pheasants had been also distributed there last fall, An interest- ing discussion of local problems fol- lowed.

WINCHAM ti m n One of the things, and to our mind the most impor- Ant thing, to -corne.,out of last week's meeting on recre- kton, was the discussion on "The forgotten Boy".. R. E,„ •Secord, of the Department of Education, put it this way, 'If a practice is called to choose players for the Bantams or the Midgets, perhaps sixty boys will answer the call. Of the sixty a dozen or so are chosen for the team. What, asks Mr. Secord, becomes of the remaining forty :or fifty-,-the dubs? • - It's a good question; and one which layman as well as expert might well ponder, for as we see it, recreational programs should be laid out to help and give encourage- ment co "the majority, and in particular, to those who need help. And the present system, we feel, falls short of this objective. With the stress being laid on the "town team", little scope is left for the boys who aren't good enough to make that team—the forgotten boys. Conversely, those who are better than average get more attention than they need, 'And while this may mean better spectator sport for the on- lookers, as a system of building character and sportsman- ship in the majority, it just doesn't add up, According to Mr. Secord, a town league of enough teams to draw ALL the boys is the answer, and we're in- clined to think he's right. Such a system would give every boy a chance to play, the club as well as the expert. And perhaps, in time, the dub will improve, Under the present system he hasn't much chance. It will be argued that the general. standard of the sport will deteriorate if we concentrate on the dubs. Un- doubtedly it will. But are we conducting our boys' re-- creation for the boys, or for the adults? SUPPORT THE RED CROSS The work of mercy never ends, That is the essence of the activities of the Canadian Red Cross Society, and of. the International Red Cross organization. It is a sentence so familiar to all of us that we are . apt to take the fact for granted. We are apt to think of the Red Cross as a smooth-running machine that rolls along under its own momentum and are apt to forget that the Red Cross depends on us, the people, for its vol- untary workers and for the money to enable those workers to carry on the work of mercy. Not all of us can contribute our labours to the Red Cross. But we can all contribute, and generously, our financial support to keep supplies coming to those who volunteer their time and energy to Red Cross work. Next Monday, in Wingham, members of the Can- adian Legion will canvass the town on behalf of the Red Cross, When the Red Cross canvasser calls remember the many vital jobs which must be done, and contribute generously. And remember—the canvasser is a volunteer too—he's.doing his share to make the 'world a better place to live in when he calls on you. SMALL TOWN VERSUS BIG CITY . There has been quite a controversy raging in the maga- zines of late concerning the respective merits of the small town and the big city. And 'no doubt the proponents of *each will continue to argue his case until the whole of southern Ontario is just a vast suburb of Toronto, Although discussions such as these are interesting enough of themselves, it is indeed doubtful whether any- one has been known to change his mind because of them. In fact we would go so far as to say that such discussions are convincing only to those who are already convinced. And for that reason we do not propose to become em- broiled in the matter one way or another. Our own idea is that the whole thing is a matter of taste, and as such should be left to the individual. Some people prefer the big city, and some the small town. And it would be silly to expect some city people to adapt themselves to the small town, just as it would be foolish to expect some small town people to be able to stand the big city. The trouble is that with all these articles pro and con, the person who is still undecided on the subject is apt to become confused. The two schools of thought are so sharply divided and so equally vociferous that it is quite a trick for the wavering in-betweener to make up his mind. To aid those who are still confused by the whole thing we have prepared a few questions, which if asked of one- self and answered honestly, should be of great help in clarifying the situation. Do you prefer an unhurried existence? Would you like to live in a friendly atmosphere? Are you in favor of fresh air? Do you like plenty of space around you? Would you say that uncrowded living quarters are de- sirable? If probably most of the answers to the above ques- tions are "Yes", you'd be better off in a small town. Have you a preference for expensive entertainment? Do you think that fresh air is better when spiced with gas fumes? Would you rather not know your next door neighbor? Are you an expert weaver in heavy traffic? Would you say that 50% of your income is a fair amount to pay out in. rent? If the majority of your answers are "Yes"—brother you've qualified for the big city 1 Clt itOtattt :ttitratzt (r.,intr4 Published at Wingharn, Ontario Wenger Brotherd, Publishers, W, Barry Wenger, taltor Member Audit Bureau of Circulation Authorized AS Second Class Mail Post Offiee Dept, Subscription Rate brie Year $9,50, Six Moilths $1,215 in advanee Ti.
