open-

provides des anle avid n e that the
people of Wingham and the ,hoard
they have elected are prepared to
provide whatever is necessary 'for
properlcon training, of the'children who
,a

a
tion -in the years to come. -
Yes, the cost is terrific but the
purchase .is a sound one. We know
of no other place in this community
where the Money shtiuld •be less be-
grudged. After all, the children 'are
not charity cases..They are: our own.
THE NECESSITY

At eight o'clock on Friday even-
ing of this week the Wingham
branch , of. the. Canadian Cancer
Society will open in the local coun-
cil chamber. The people who have
for several years past carried the
responsibility of this organization
are hopeful that the attendance will
be better than in previous years.

that it is likely toclaimone out of

The Canadian. Cancer' Society is
not an aggregation: of hypochon-
driacs gathered . to gloom over a
pessiliiistic future -=- but rather an
intelligent and thoughtful cross-
, section of the 'public. They are peo-
ple who are sensible enough to do •
something practical about a great
evil: The Cancer Society's first aim
is to acquaint -everyone with the sig-
pals •of impending disease and so
permit them to take •ren ediai action
in the early stages, when the disease
is readilytontrhlled. = •
The Second function of the soei-
ety is to'i; assist iii the work . of re -
