It might' have been fifty years ago, but not today. What Riley really mean is that he works hard. And be does, * * But the city fellow works hard too, whether he's a pipefitter, a lawyer, a newspaperman or a. girdle =salesman, The difference is that all the city fellow gets out of all the work is a bald head, ul- cers, jowls and a baggy belly, while the farmer winds, up with muscles, a hearty 'appetite, a ruddy com- plexion, and a paunch 'as sound ,and solid as a bass drum, • Much has been said and written in recent years about the excellent products of the several Wingham plants which manufacture and ship out to other centres such durable commodities as fine furniture, doors and so on, Most people here are jus- tifiably Protid of the fact that ar- ticles manufactured in their home town are in use all over the domin- ion, We have another product, how- ever, which is infinitely more signifi- cant than the items which roll out of our machines the young men and women who each year at this time complete higher education in the litl- versity centres of the praince, Last `3 reek' '1).SW dti:Ifli.'61` fa t TtaVia 'and ,pictures of several of,• these yOuqg people who 'had received degrees:at the spring convocations. ; Life in a smaller conimimiti: is highly satisfying as far as , we are concerned.

Greatest reason for the difficulties lies in the fact the boys andgirl to￿ are so 'busy with all the projects which are afoot both surrinier- and winter, that few 13a:rents -feel the rather high investment :in instru- ments will bear anyjruit.

If the neighbor's boys play hockey, then yours must get into the game too. ' In a generation now gone by children were urged to develop those aptitudes which they possessed, and as a result even the one-roomed country schools produced the men and women who have been the truly great personages of dur time. Our affairs in years to coin th may all be run by "team of specialists who are no loisger able to act as free agents of their own will. te all that as it may, those boys and girls who are being trained in the band here tare benefiting in a much, broader way than merely learning to play an instrument.

NEW' MEDICAL CENTRE There may be many in this area who' do not' yet realize that the Wingham General Hospital is rap- idly becoming somewhat of a medi- cal , centre :for the central Western Ontario District. Evidence of this fact• was seen recently when the Lis- toWer Memorial Hospital requested consideration for a chronic patients' Wing: The 'board in that town was tofd"thaVadequate facilities are pres- ently available at Stratford and Wingham. Another move has been the es- tablishinent Of a Red Cross, blood ,bank .:_in 'the Wingham Hospital, Which; Will act as the supply centre fdr the hospitals at both Goderich and IKincardine. This new service is not: one which is charged, to local hospital supporters, but rather is paid for entirely by the Red Cross Society. All the public is asked to, do ' is donate blood to keep the bank supplied—and of course the dona- tions will come from. all ,centres in 'this district. The first of these clin- ics will. be held in the Wingham Legion Home on June 24th. The Wingham Hospital has been 'for some time the headquarters for a regular cancer clinic, under the di- rection of the Canadian Cancer Society, and patients come to Wing- ham froth as far 'away as Owen. Sound for periodic checkups. This program entails a great deal of very important work for the local unit of the Cancer Society, whose mem- bers are rendering invaluable aid to victims of the dread disease at a time when they are badly in need of comfort and cheer. A hospital of the scope we have in Wingham is highly expensive to construct in the first place and even more costly to maintain, The funds have been, provided, in large part, by the residents of Wingham and the adjacent townships, so they have more than a little reason to fed proud of the recognition which has been accorded the institution they have treated.
