To celebrate the Board has arranged public screenings of its outstanding new films in centres across Ca- nada. Such a screening is to be held in Hanover for the area of Grey, Bruce, liuron,Perth and Du(ferin Counties and the north end of Wellington County. The early efforts of the Na- tional Film Board were in sup- port of the war effort. Projec- tionists were sent around to show films in schools during the day and to adults in the eve,' Hing. The itinerary was set up on a monthly basis and even at this early stage the film ser- vice was marked by co-opera- tion between persons in the lo- cal community and the repre- sentative of the National Film Board. Local film Committees were set up to promote inter- ,.o®su00.1-�WiO..�Yn,4-.,.fot...oNtiem.oita.,41IN0la.o.wi,ay.,.10,00.10.,1 Jack tdexander AUCTIONEER and Appraiser We handle Town and Farm Sales „x L: Phone 357-3631 - Wingham NOTICE TO Water Consumers The hours of watering lawns and gardens are from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m., and from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. THIS WILL BE STRICTLY ENFORCED An ANNUAL charge of $4.44 gross, less prompt pay- ment discount of 10% is made for the use of a hose or outside tap for the above -noted purposes.

AUDITORS BOX 663 KINCARDINE PHONE 55 est in the film showing and plan the program, which often included discussions of films and periods of recreation and lunch, With .developing interest however, this system of making films available in each local- ity only once a month proved to be inadequate. Many larger centres wished to have films available at all times and even in small communities, organiz- ations wished to be able to use films at their meetings. This demand led to the formation of film councils whereby organiz- ations were able to pool their resources to provide themselves with projectors and films. This development again marked close co-operation between the National Film Board and community leaders, these leaders being active in the or- ganizational work, the Nation- al Film Board lending films and equipment and providing the services of the Representative. The advantages of co-oper- ation led to the formation of County Film Councils and la- ter Film Federations which co- ordinated the activities of County film councils and the larger community film coun- cils, The Blue Water Film Federation serves Grey, Bruce and Huron Counties. DISTRIBUTION CENTRES In Huron County interest in films had been sparked by the establishment of itinerant school circuits during the war years. Some attempts had been made to establish film councils in Seaforth and Exeter and with the establishment of a County Film Council in 1956 a comprehensive distribution sys- tem was organized in the coun- ty. Under the presidency of W. V. Roy of Clinton distribu- tion outlets were established in Brussels, Clinton, Exeter, God- erich, Sea forth and Wingham. Local film councils were esta- blished in each of these centres to promote the use of films, train people to operate projec- tors and to make any other necessary local arrangements. From the time of organiza- tion the public libraries have taken an interest in the project. In all centers but Clinton the films have been housed in the library and in Seaforth and Ex- eter the Library Board pays the necessary fee for the commun- ity. ommun- ity With the organization of the Blue Water Film Federation in 1959, Huron County became closely associated with County Film Councils 10 ('rey and Bruce, gaining the benefit of the pooling of resources and of effort. To all these developments the National Film Board has co-operated with local leaders, the purpose of the Board to dis- tribute films in the national interest meeting the need of local organization in material for their programmes. Al- though the Board .assisted in the development of film councils and federations, these are autonomous bodies supplying their member organizations. Although films an. on loan from the N,F. B. and are also purchased from that agency, the Federation secures prints of films from other sources to meet the needs of the member groups, At the present time there are 110 films in circulation in Huron County available from five of the original centers, Brussels having ceased to par- ticipate. In addition films are available from the central film library of the Federation in Hanover and from a Discus- sion Film Library of the Nation- al Film Board in Toronto.

To Detroit for Baseball Game Five cars of Scouts, leaders and fathers left the Scout House last Saturday morning at8:30 for Detroit, where they saw a ball game between the Wash- ington Senators and the Detroit Tigers. The game was played at the Detroit Tigers' stadium. It was a terrific encounter throughout and the teams were tied 5-5 at the end of the ninth inning. Excitement mounted as the teams went into the tenth to break the tie. The Tigers won the game 6-5. They had supper in Sarnia on the way home where one of the restaurant patrons treated all the boys to potato chips and gum. The cars returned to town near • the midnight hour with tired passengers who had thor- oughly enjoyed the day's activ- ity. Scoutmaster Crawford Doug- las made the arrangements with the Detroit Tigers Baseball Club and admission to the game was by courtesy of the ball club. Ross Hastings, Charlie Ken- nedy, Hugh Sinnamon, Don Lloyd and Paul Dingman drove their cars to supply transporta- tion. Popsicle Sticks Turn Leg Splints Popsicle sticks, their pur- pose served, are generally found in the palms of small, sticky hands, tucked down be- hind sofa cushions, on the back seats of motor vehicles or pro- truding from between two rows of gleaming baby teeth. Rarely are they discovered in an her- oic role - unless Mrs. J. D. McKenzie, a St. John Ambul- ance Divisional officer happens along. The unlikely combination of popsicle sticks and a train- ed first aider, helped tourist relations this year and sent an American visitor home with a good feeling about her border neighbours, Mrs. McKenzie, wearing her St. John Ambulance uni- form, was on her way to Presgtt ile Park, as part of her volun- teer public service duty, when she realized that a car horn was being sounded to attract her attention. She stopped and found that theowner'spood- le was lying helpless with a broken leg. Putting her ingenuity to work, Mrs. McKenzie made splints for the canine's leg, us- ing popsicle sticks. She then sent the grateful motorist to a veterinarian. A dog may be man's best friend, but perhaps a dog's best friend is a St. John Ambulance first aider!
