Young Malcolm, a fine-looking
lad who had grown up on a farm
in the mains of Carmyllie, was in
Canada witil five other Scottish
farm boys for the purpose of ob-
serving Canadian agricultural
techniques. To do this he was
spending a week or so with various
families in rural Ontario, helping
them in their work and joining
them in their social activities, At
the same time a group of young
Canadian farmers were in Scot-
land, studying the Scottish charac-
ter and the Scottish way of doing
things.
I was amazed at Maicolm's
knowledge of Canadiiu',r history. He
.had read every chamber of com-
merce phamphlet he could get his
hands on, and knew probably more
about General Brock and the War
of 1812, about the Toronto subway
and the Peterborough lift -lock,
than the average Canadian.

meats. But I still hope to see the
day when Canadian boys and girls
will be able to go on state -sub-
sidized tours across the country
during summer vacation from
school. It is a hindrance to our
national unity that so many thous-
ands of Canadian citizens are hem-
med in by provincial boundaries,
who never have the opportunity to
see the Rockies or the Prairies, or
the North, or the fishing villages
of the Maritimes.
It may also be worthwhile to
hope that the trend toward recip-
rocity of ideas will include the
tradesman, the plumber and car-
penter and motor mechanic, who
can well benefit from seeing how
his own work is done in other
countries.
Parents' magazine publishes
what may be considered the most
reliable movie service available, In
its September family movie guide,
175 current movies are evaluated
for adults, young people (12-16)
and for children (8-12). Of the
lot, 71 are considered unfit for
children, while 12 more are unfit
for either children or young peo-
ple. A11 things considered, the re-
cord isn't bad if more than half of
the movies now in circulation are
