ND ....HERE AND` THERE
In the big cities and -towns
there ...ere countless people,
young and old,' who are lonely
fey.the little places from
which they ;came, hungry for
the kind of news that is buried
in the thunder. and .,scurry of
the metropolis., For 15 years
now Neighborly Newsihas been
the unfailing comfort and glee
of these exiles from God's
country.
Y
So said Gregory 'Clarke, former
Toronto Star Weekly writer and
now with "Week End” Magazine,
over a CBC Sunday evening pro-
gram recentlymarking the 15th
anniversary -of the -well-known
"4Neighborly. News" program,
We must credit Andy Clarke
with setting the tone of Neigh-
borly News, for he.,mhad an eye
for the homely, the wise, the
humorous and the human, long
before he ,was chosen to speak
and edit the radio ,survey of
'the week's country press.
When he was new editor. of
the old Globe, tliey'ran sa-joye -
ous little item each day called
,the Southeastr,•,.Corner, which
was in :thee bottom right-hand
corner of the front page. And
it was such stuff as Neighbor-
ly News iis made on, some-
thing picked out of the daily
torrent of the news which had
the veritable country feel to
it, of 'tender'ness, clfsurprise,
of hunnan frailty • and human
kindness:

Finds Leg Bio Cen
Week After Hurt
A Goderich man" is in Alexandra

a' broken leg after thinking for e
whole week that he had simmply in-
jured a muscle in the limb.
William •McTaggart, of Mary

Petersburg, near Kitchener, a week
ago Monday.
While working at the job, a
truck backed, into' him and his leg'
was caught between the rear dual
wheels. He 'rent to a doctor in,
Petersburg and it was thought it
might have been a . muscle injury
and could see no appa'ren't sign of
any break.
Returning home, he waited for
a few ;days and• then went to 'see
a' doctor` here: •He was told "to stay

When e leg didn't get any bet-
ter, he was taken . on Monday to
the hospital for an X-ray and a
fracture was discovered just above
the knee.
Also in hospital with -a broken
leg is Kenneth Hartman, 11, of
Nelson street, who suffered the
injury while sliding•at a gravel pit.
OFFICIAL VISIT
R. K.- Williamson, London, Past
-Grand- Master -of the--'G-rand -Lodge
of Ontario, Independent Order of
Oddfellows, paid an official visit to
Huron Lodge, No. 62, on Monday
night at the regular meeting in
MacKay Hall.
Ivor Brown, one of;, the greatest
living' British -journalists- -and-
critics, has this to say • yin 'writing
about an anthology he was editing,
a collection of choice pieces from
the Manchester Guardian,. "P
itical events," he says, "except the
largest, wither quickly, in interest.
The debate that seemed to make•
such lively reading one morning
is dead matter within aweek or
two, dead beyond any form of
resurrection in a year. When, for
example,' a Fre"nch.. government
falls, it is as ,though a . pin had
dropped, and thetumbling of pins
does not echo :down -the years.
'`Politicians only exist,
though it, will not flatter their
self-esteem 'to be told so, in
order that we common folk
may enjoy, in.,• such conven-
ience as statesmanship can
provide, our lives, our mat-
ings, our way ' of work, our
arts and sports and meander-
ings in casual felicity.' So
much of what is vaguely called
politics is transient, even when
it is not trivial; but such an
:aehieveme'nt as -building -with
beauty, writing the memorable
word, making, the_ undying
song, and achieving the great
'human," therapy and consola-
tion of laughter is a durable ,
thing.;"
That was 'Ivor Brown. What
could be truer of Canada's country
weeklies? What could be truer of
Neighborly News?,
It scans the cotintry's week-
lies
eeklies for the stories, in a warr-
ing world, of men and women
and children living in peace.
And the`men who have spoken
it each week are men, with
many other jobs to 'handle,

whom broadcasting

"Neighborly News" is a labor
of love, and who bring to it
the spirit of fun, fancy and
unpretentious wisdom in
which "Neighorly News" was
conceived. It's an institution.
Harry McCreath, a director of the
museum, . discoltered the break last
Saturday morning. They said it
must have occurred sometime
within three days prior to the dis-
cdvery.
Police reported that seven
antique revolvers and pistols, one
air pistol and 15-20 'ball caps had
been taken, _along with an 'old bull
whip.
•The thieves, gained entrance to
-the building through 'a firsWioor
window on the north side. They
made their way to the hallway
where the case containing the
pistols was standing and ,smashed
the glass in it.
To steal the bull whip, the
thieves went into . another room in
the building and smashed wood-
work on doors of another display.

"The •.air pistol was dated 1875,"
the curator said, "and was the only
one of that age and type that I

ake Grant To Cover
1954 Recreation Loss
A committee -of the whole re-
commendation was passed by Town
Council last Friday night granting
$5,000 to the iGoderich Recreation
and Arena 'Committee. The fin-
ancial report showing the conimit-
tee's receipts and expenditures in
1954 is contained in an advertise-
ment on page 5 of this issue of
The Signal -Star. • .
The grant was requested, by the
committee to pay off last _year's
operating expenses and to leave
the' group a small bank balance
with which to start this year.
Await Estimates.
,The Committee has requested
also thats a $6,000 grant be made'
by council- to cover this •year's
operations, but council decided to
wait until estimates for the year
are considered before' a decision
is made.
When the request for the grants
was first' made three weeks ,ago,
council . 'asked that J. G. Berry,
secretary -treasurer of the recrea-
tion • committee, and Town Clerk -
Treasurer S H. Blake compile a
statement • showing last year's' fin-

Town Clerk -Treasurer S. H.
Blake read a • letter frim the ,D-e-
partment of Highways, Gasoline
Tax Branch, saying that the . fuel
oil was subject to the tax.
Mr. Blake explained that one
day during the summer -there had
been a dust nuisance on 'West
street,_ -so' town workmen used tete
fuel 'pil -since a regular dust layer
liquid had been used up That
was the only time it had been
used, he said.
The department also sent along
forms to be filled out for paying

Blake said also that the, fuel
oil had- been a bit cheaper than
other dust leyers,but if the tax
had to be paid'it would prove
to be a bit dearer. s

The statement was presented at
last ,Friday • night's meeting, but
councillors felt it was nob,explan-
atory enough to give the public
a clear picture. They requested
that the statement be redrafted.
"The statement shows that the
arena is not costing as much as
some people think it is," comment-
ed Councillor James. Donnelly. "All
the information is in the report,"
he said, "but it should -be explain-
ed more clearly so that' every
- taxpayer will be able to under-
stand it." -
Costs High
11e said he felt, however, that
councillors were satisfied that: the
•arena was not being operated quite
as economically as possible. But
he noted that power and water at
the arena cost $3,500 -last year
and insurance cost $2,700.
At the council meeting three
weeks ago Mr. Berry explained the
council's grant for recreation oper-
ations in 1954 actually totalled
$9,000.. In requesting a $6,000
grant for -this year, he said, the
committee was asking for $3,000
less than in 1954.

than in older ones. Older child-
ren, he said, have been affected by
a milder form of whooping cough,
while infants and small children
have had more serious attacks of
the disease, especially if they have
not been immunized.
Whooping cough immunization,
he said, is 75-80 per cent effective
in small children. Children over
"six are not usually, immunized
since they usually have mild at-
tacks of the disease. And children
who have 'been immunized and
contact whooping cough •usually
have only a light attack.
Prevalent . also are cases of
mumps -and sore throats.
Cases of measles and other com-
municable diseases are about in
the same proportion- as in other
years, he said.
Dr. Aldis also 'suggested that
parents should take children to
immunization clinics or to their
family doctors for immunization.
Clinics are held monthly in

table -indemnity -
An excitable young couple
dashed into the office of Town
Clerk S. 11. Blake and en-
thusiastically parted with five
dollars in return for a mar-
riage license. This, they
thought, they deposited in'the
back seat_ of the prospective
groom's car along with other
purchases while they hurried
over to the Square to make
other purchases. -.
On- their return to the car
they couldn't find the marriage
license. Finally they found
the ende'lope, in which the
marriage license had d h
P
e
n
placed, lying on the street
near the car. But no marriage
license was inside.
Back to the Town Clerk they
went. He offered to go to
the. Police Station and see if
someone had found it on the
street and turned it in to the
police. The'Town Clerk related
the sad tale to the Police Chief.
A group of cracker barrel cus-
tomers, who had long since
been harnessed, were seated
in the Police Station. Smiling-
ly they offered suggestions.
They were many. One said,
"I can loan them mine if they
'want it; it's over 30 years old
but as good as new." Said
another: "Lost their marriage
license? Best thing that could
ever happen to them if they
only„ knew it!"
But the young couple, when
they learned of the pessimistic
attitude of the cracker barrel
males, would have none of it.
They simply had to have an -
Other marriage license. There
was nothing to do but buy
one, even if it did cost another
five dollars. The prospective
groom planked down the five
spot. Nothing -could stop them
now as they went arm and arm
out of the Towel Clerk's office
with broad smiles on their
faces and both holding onto
the marriage license.
Glazier, driver of a Curry's Taxi,
picked up the two men when: , he
responded to a • call to Mary street.
-He 'had been informed of the
break and radioed the. taxi office
that he had two fares ',going to
Centralia. Then he shut off bis,
eadisl. The office did not hear the
meSsage, - but another cab driver,
'Ron Pennington, heard' the call and
relayed it to the office. . '
