Mentally retarded children are
usually divided for classification
into three groups:. The educ-
able mentally retarded, who are
usually looked after in special
classes in Public Schools; 2. The
'trainable mentally retarded,

Goderich; 3. The dependent

Tomorrow, I'll be forty-one. It age. I hope the world isn't.
There hasn't been a dull moment
in the last •four decades, for
either of us. I hope we're both
around to tell about it, when I
enter my seventies, in 1990.
occurs to me that the last four
decades have peen an interest-
ing period,,not only for me, but
for the world. Let's have a look
back and see what happened to
the pair of us.
H, 8, 4,
When my mother presented
my father With a red-faced, un-
der -sized, squalling brat in June,
1920, the world was a fine place.
The Great War was over, dem-
ocracy had triumphed, prices
were good, and that great level-
er of society, the Model T, was
about to start turning pious, sob-
er men into red-faced, cursing
maniacs.
'8q *
The next decade, was the time
of the self-styled '!lost gener-
ation"—the era of the flapper,
the coonskin coat, the rumble
seat, the hip -flask and jazz. But
I'm afraid they didn't mean
much to a skinny kid with
freckles, growing up in a small
town.
The things I remember are:
the old' silent movies,,.,;g,ith• the
piano"'player thumping out the
William Tell- overture as the
climax neared; endless summers
of hot blue sky; two fat, homely
little girls who used to gang up
on me and kiss me after school;
off for a family picnic every
Sunday in the 1923 Chev with
the side -curtains; and my kid
brother . following- mek,, every-
where I went, to my unutterable
rage -and disgust. - . .
• * .f,. 8,
That must have been just
about the best decade the world
and I ever had, a heedless and.
happy timet., --My parents were
as solid as the earth itself. My
dad was always good for a dime,
if I' worked him carefully. My
mother was always there with
a kiss or a hug or a cool hand,
when I was hurt or scared or
sick.
The world was a pleasant
place then, too. What I remem-
ber most vividly is that it was
so quiet and easy-going, com-
pared to the world of today.
Men worked 48 or 50 hours a
week. But very few of them had
ulcers: 'Women had none of the
"appliances they have today. But
they didn't need sleeping pills.
People walked more. Everybody
put his car up on blocks in the
winter, . and nobody drove" at
night, unless he had Jo. • On
summer evenings, people sat on
their verandas, and visited, and
drank lemonade.
Everyone forty -or over knows
what happened in the, next de-
cade. Our• economy carne apart
,at the seams and the --world en-
tered the long, grinding years
of the great depression. Canada
suffered less than some, but
enough. People swallowed their
pride and went on relief. Thous-
ands of men rode the rods from
town to town, looking for work,
begging for food. There was no
work. Those who had jobs took
pay outs without a murmur, and
lived in fear of worse. - -
° * * *
My dad hung do grimly, but
lost his business in the end. At
fifty, he had a Wife and five
children, no job and no money.
We made out. My mother took
in boarders,sold home• baking.
and pinched the pennies until
they -bled. My-- dad -took- -any
work he could get. 1 remember
one job was selling coffins. He
sold three in three months, and
his total commissions were
about $60. Ovt of this he paid
his car expenses, meals- and
lodgings, on the road. -
• * * * ''
It was a difficult time to be
an adolescent. But I have won-
derftl memories of that decade.
First love, in high school. Play-
ing rugby in the fall mud.
Square dancing half the night
at country dances. My first job-,
sailing on the 'Lakes. First in-
terest in world affairs, and a
burning desire to- go to •Spain
with the International Brigade,
but too young.
* * 8,
• Thee' Thirties ended with a
bang, when we went to war.
Befdre 1 was swept away on the
stream, with the rest of my
generation, 1 had a year at uni-
versity, by sheer luck. That was
a good time. The "phoney war"
was still ,on, and we squeezed
every drop of juice from our
student days, knowingfthey were
of brief duration:
I 'ddn't know what happened
to the Prties. They went by in
a blur of excitement. Overseas,
pubs, girls, friends, operations,
prison camp, back to dniversity,
scuttled by a pair of brown eyes,
married and a father before I
rightly knew what was happen-
ing. ;
d, *
Then the Fifties, as I entered
my thirties. Into the weekly
newspaper business and working
like a dog. Delighting in mv
babies. "thrill of the first second-
hand car,. Fun of buying an old
house and fixing it up. Satisfac-
tion in turning out a good paper,
sometimes. Good fishing and
hunting, Good friends. But the
world speeding -un; the big bomb
banging there, the job always
demanding.
9, /#
And now. in mv forties. we'll
see what the Sixties have in
store tor me and the world.
Already a new job, new friends,
new interests, for me, New
fears, new threats. new weapons,
and, new worlds, for the world.
All Veen add is that I'm sup.
posed to be at the dangerous

of Directors of Amerel Mining Company Limned ; and will be

HERE'S WHY WE RECOMMEND AMEREL
AND HERE'S WHAT AMEREL HAS TO OFFER YOU
The official prospectus of Amerel Mining Company Limited contains a report on the
company's gold property, prepared by Dr. W. N. Ingham, Ph.D., and in his Conclu-
sions and Recommendations, Dr. Ingham sumbnarizes some of the highlights of the
property as follows!'•
1) Amerel's property is favorably located in the centre 9f the Val d'Or-Malartic
mining area. :
2) • Two major gold generating structures cross the Amerel claim group for lengths of
8,000 feet and 6,000 feet respectively.
3) One of these, the Cadillac Break, is related to matTy-gold deposits for 100 miles to
the west, with one of the producing Mines only 6 miles -distant. .
The other break, the Norlartic Fault' Zone, is also -related to several gold deposits, •
the nearest present producer being 8 miles to the northwest, and the nearest past
producer being only 1 mile to the northwest.
5) Previous exploration has established scattered gold ore sections, and near -ore
sections at five intervals along 3,100 feet of the part of the Norlartic Break. that
crosses Amerel claims.
6) It is recommended that a program of surface diamond drilling be carried out in ,
order to further explore these promising structures.
4)
AMEREL, in our opinion, which is backed by many years of experience, is worth
25cents per share. - d
