When they're going through the march -past, When they ought to look just right - Is he thinking of the movie He will see on Friday night? Does he wonder why he cannot ,hear The bass drum in the band; Or silently complain about The roughness of the land? Does he think about his favour- ite girl; Or of those young cadets Who march behind him, out of step? Or is he thinking yet, About that English book, and if He'll ever have it read; Or fear that when he yells, "Eyes right!" They'll do "eyes left" instead. Does he curse that pesky little fly That buzzes round his ear; Or think of summer holidays, And that they are so near. Now opinions always differ, So the best thing you can do Is to find a troup commander, And to ask his point of view. The Importance of an Airstrip To a Small Community Although some people think that a local airstrip is an extra- vagance, it is of great import- ance to the development of any small community. Some mu- nicipalities are quite backward, while others are more advanced in their outlook on progress: these characteristics spread throughout the community and are reflected in their public fa- cilities and organized activi- ties. A progressive community, having an airstrip, is "up to date" during the 1960's and is adapting itself to modern con- ditions. In this day and age a community has to be "forward looking" or it will miss out on many of the good opportunities BELGRAVE DISTRICT credit Union Limited is happy to join the Huron County Credit Union Chap- ter and the Ontario Credit Union League in celebrating INTERNATIONAL CREDIT UNION DAY Thursday, October 15th, 1964 This year's banquet and celebration will be held in the Legion Hall, Goderich. A Credit Union is a group of people who agree to save their money together and to make loans to each other at low interest. It is organized within a particu- lar group, such as people working for the same em- ployer; people who are members of the same church; labour union; fraternal order; people who live in the sante community. Membership is open to anyone in the group regardless of race, color or creed. For further information contact George Michie, Bel - grave District Credit Union Limited. Office open in Belgrave every Tuesday evening on Daylight Saving Time, Tuesday afternoon on Standard Time. that are within its reach. This progress will help the whole outlook of the community in its business, recreation, and ed- ucational facilities. Progressive ways will give prestige to the community, thus bringing new industries to the district. These new industries mean more job opportunities for the unemployed, and this, in turn, brings about a growth in population. The aspect of a nearby airport is of great im- portance in the planning of a site for any new industry, for in the rush of the modern day business life, a speedy means of travel is of great value to the employer. Many large indus- tries own private planes for the transportation of their workers and executive from one loca- tion to another. The benefits that come to the industry also aid the local merchants in the selling of their merchandise, thus helping the prosperity of everyone concerned. An air ambulance service could be set up zit auy local airstrip, for the transferring of patients from the smaller local hospital to a hospital in the city, where more specialized treat- ment can be given. This ser- vice would be much faster than an ambulance, and as there is not much air traffic, it would be less dangerous. Charter flights are made available through the proprietor of the airstrip, who usually has the suitable qualifications. This is a rapid means of transporta- tion and very suitable prices are usually charged. h�cause flying is a very pop- ular and versatile recreation, an airstrip is important in pri- vate flying - for business and pleasure charter flights, and the training of eager new flyers and is an important asset in the development of any communi- ty. --Jane Cruikshank, 12A Cheerleaders Hello South Huron How do you do. We've got a team and so have you. So let's shake hands and be the best of friends, Good luck to you And may the best team win. The above is one of the new cheers that the cheerleaders or "inspiration girls" have learned this year. This particular cheer is used to greet the opposition, It was put to good use last Thursday at the first home game when Wingham went down to defeat 10-0 at the hands of South Huron High School, Exe- ter. This year it was decided to have two cheerleading teams. The teams are: Senior, Judy Callan, Noreen Nicol, Bonnie Jardin, Helen Currie, Cheryl Roane, Linda Mahood; Junior, Peggie Rae, Brenda Hall, Rae Gurney, Nancy Schaefer, Wen- dy Cronkwright, Jill Thornton. The aim of the cheerleaders is to raise the morale of the teams and the spirit of the stu- dents and we hope to do just this. - - Noreen Nicol, 12B LAKELET Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Wright; Howie, Owen and Shelley and Mr. and Mrs, Walter Demer- ling, David, Nancy and An- drew spent Thanksgiving Day with Mr. and Mrs, Harold Fran- cis of Wingham.
