R. l Bubbs, . Toronto, Im- perial Oil's Ontario marketing manager, said ; ,the tourist in- dUstry offers ,advantages over others. For one, it doesn't' re- , quire the budding of more Schools.

About 30 dele- gates from Middlesex, Elgin, Oxford and Norfolk counties at- tended. Two major points emerged from recent briefs submitted to the Ontario Tourist. Industry Report Committee of which Mr' Bubbs is a member: Ontario citizens, he said, are .not tourist -conscious; and very little tourist _ esearch has been done. His talk stressed the point made by other conference speakers: That" tourism is im- portant to the economy - to every citizen =- and that •"a selling - job" is required to con, vince them. "We haven't made enough 'of our historical heritage," he said. And people don't know the points of interest in their own communities. Visitors must be encouraged, to stay longer, he said, pointing Out that most Americans are just passing through" Ontario. Bell Nai.is Area Poles Over 5,000 pounds of numb- ered aluminum nails will be used by The Bell Telephone,- Co. of Canada in tagging 295,000 telephone poles it maintains in this part 9f the ceuntry. A Bell Canada spokesman said the work has already begun and will continue into December. "We're tagging our poles in order to streamline ,our import- , ant pole inventory system," he :said. "We've contracted the ser- vices of Tecnnical Overload, a division of Office Overload, to do the tagging for us." Each pole will be tagged with the date of its installation, some of which date back to 1924. The spokesman also' said that in the last three years,, nearly 50,000, poles have been replaced with unde'-ground facilitie a Goderich Memorials •Quality -• Service - Cemetery Lettering Phone GODERI.•CH 524-8981 or 'Vrite 130 BLAKE ST..

A good.reason to borrow from HETI Virtually everybody t h e s e days is upset 'about our educa- tional. system. The pub 1 i c schools are riot , teaching the ur- chins to read, write -and figger. The high schools' are massive, 'seething factories turning out illiterates. The colleges are sep- tic tanks of sex, marijuana and ,LSD. Most of thi , is pure poppy- cock, of course, but a critical so- ciety is a healthy one, according to Hugh Dunnit, that- 'great Welsh bard and beatnik of the eleventeen•th c e n t u r y. This make4 Canadians about the healthiest critters in the hemi- sphere. Columnist; aver that- high schools are run like military camps, producing lock -step con- formists who haven't learned to think. This Is 'patent baloney. They think one helluva lot more than 'did these same columnists, when they cameout of Hayfork Centre with not much more than a burning' desire to get away from said 'centre, a lousy basic education, and a shiny blue serge suit. Lots of parents, and some teachers, are of the opposite opinion: that there is' far too much freedom of speech, dress and action, too many frills, not enough good hard work and good hard punishment. These comments come from parents who worked one-quarter as hard in school as their kids do, and teachers who atrophied some years ago. The kids themselves, depend- ing on home background, their awn-p-ersunalit:es;'-and_.tfieir "tar ent, or lack ol'•it,-look on school as a jail or a ball. Some think of it rather like having a ball in a jail.. . School boatels. beef about the cost of everything, and the ad- in•inis'ration beefs aboutthe shortage of everything and the teachers' beef about the paper jungle 'and the custodians beef about the salaries and the hours and the teachers and the adtpin- istration and the school board. You might think, from all this nagging, that there. 'are • some slight imperfections in our high schools. And you might be right. But it's not. as -bad as' it sounds. What I' can't understand is that i haven't been aliproached for a definition of' the perfect high school. It's pro'ba'bly just an oversight, and 'because I'm not a pushy type. But , who is better qualified? I've been to high school myself, I 'work in the blasted factory every day, and I have a daughter who 'comes home every day ta.id moans, "Do I ever .hate school!" Well, here goes. Don't panic, now. The ,changes would be slight and inexpensive. I think we'd ,all enjoy life more, stu- dents, parents and teachers. First of all, let's cut out the muttered, 'mumbled morning prayer. I' believe in prayer and practises it quite often (usually. when I'm in a jam). But it's al- most sacrilege in the way it's delivered. The R.C.'s whizz through it and leave out .the last part. The Jews and atheists are silent. The teacher winds up leading three or four dogged Protestants woo aren't always sure of the words. Next, out goes The Queen. While I am a royalist, and have the utmost respect for Queen Elizabeth, I see no reason 30 -odd teenagers should 'be submitted every morning, to a pompous and bad- piece of music, the words of which have no more relation to their world than do the horse and buggy.

"Atrazine is a good product to work with because itis so safe7 ` according to Austin Parnall, who plants 600 acres of corn. "We've never had any damage with it. In '65, we used Atrazine with oil and sprayed around the middle of June when the Weeds were up about an inch. It burned off the weeds pretty fast and'gave good control through to harvest with no culti- vations." Stressing the safety of Atrazine, Mr. Parnell reports: "We've never had any problem from, residues when following treated corn with soybeans on my farm.." Mr. Parnell goes on to say "In the future we will not use oil with the Atrazine because for the best results I believe Atrazine should be (sed as soon after planting as possible (early May) for more moisture:" Start using Atrazlne this year -discover how profitable corn production can be.
