"So Let Us Face The Future, With Hearts Aglow!"
IN ONTARIO, there probably is no better-
loced nor more highly -respected farmer than
'Hon. Theories L. Kennedy, who, despite his
advancing years, still is sprightly in. mind and,
' in body.
Mr. Kennedy proved a good choice as chief
speaker at the Short Course banquet at Ontario
Agricultural College Thursday evening lest,
when the 700 students, — including 83 from
Huron County — were guests of the Ontario
Department of Agriculture.
Taking as his theme the lines from the
Junior Farmers' song, "So let us face the
future, one and all, with hearts aglow," Hon.
Mr. Kennedy told the young people that they
were citizens in the country of the future,
with its great reservoir of natural resources—
pulpwood, iron mines of boundless wealth, the
world's greatest supply of nickel, and second
highest level of gold production, in the world.
"But when you study the greatness of any
country and its people, you see that ies�urces.
are important, but they are secondary to
character of the people who control them.
Britain's greatness has been due to the wond-
erful ''character of her people, as the whole
world found out in the last war. It - is upon
character that the'' future of our country de
pends."
Concluded the speaker: "The longer I live
the more I am convinced that Canada is the
country we read of in the Bible as 'a land of
milk and honey'. To realize the maximum
froki our country will require careful and in-
telligenit use of all our resources. During this
week you have been studying the sound prin-
ciples of agriculture and comnntnity living.
Go to your communities, put what you have
learned"here into practical use, and assume
the responsibilities of leadership for which you
have been trained."
Editorial Comment .. .
Both the Townships of Goderich and
. Tuckersmith are putting the finger on own-
ers of cars left parked on the Township roads,
thus hempeeing snowplowing and not before
it weds time!
Our hearty congratulations to Alex F.
Cudmore on his election by acclamation as
chainmen of the School Board for his ninth
term. And further compliments on the fact
that •R is his 32nd year as a member either
of a Public School Board or Board of Educa-
tion in Clinton.
That Clinton could stand more industries,
whether large or small, was put forward by
two or three members et the inaugural meet-
ing of Clinton Town Council Monday evening.
Let's have some planning along this line!
The new Mayor of Goderich also brought up
the same point in his inaugural address.
Through the auspices of the various Lions
Clubs of the County, Huron Tuberculosis As-
so!elation has been conducting a phrlstmas
Seals Campaign. The Clinton chairman, C. M.
Shearing, states that the fund locally still is
about $100 short of its objective, but that it
still is not too late to send in contributions.
This should be done at once. It Is a great
cause and deserves hearty support.
The new Mayor of .Goderich, in his in-
augural address, pressed for fairer treatment
from the County of Huron on account of the
tact that the town contributes $40,000 an-
nually in taxation. In any county, the county
town benefits more then other because the
county administration is located there. Per-
haps, Goderich would like to lose the privilege
of being the- county town? May we point out
that, in many respects, including location, Clin-
ton might be a much more advantageous
county town than our larger neighbour on
the shores of Lake Huron.
The Christmas Tree Story
To -clay is one of the saddest days that ever I did see;
It's time to strip. the Christmas tree as it nears Epiphany.
II has looked so pretty standing there with all its baubles bright
As if it said to each of us, "Hi!", "Good Cheer" and then "Good -night".
First to come down were the silver spindles, long and slender and shining white,
Each like a streaming tear crying for those who were not .here on Christmas night,
And then all the glistening balls of every size and hue
Were packed away so carefully as was their rightful due.
And then the garlands red and green that wound about the tree
As E they held the love of all and would not let it free.
And then the paper candlesticks with their bright red light aflame
Hung there so many years ago by our son, Richard, by name.
And then the tiny red plush Santa Claus that seems so frail and not so bold,
Lie's hung upon each one of our Christmas trees since Gerald was two years old.
And, of course, there's the big old tarnished " tinsel star
Always near the top as if to guide us near and fr^r.
The six little "Rudolphs" with their noses red end bright
Hung this year for our dear little Candace's delight.
The little old net stocking so tiny and so small
It couldn t really hold any goodies or toys at all.
And then the lights I stow away to guard from any harm;
The corner slowly dims and dulls and does not seem so warm. a
Last there is "Angie", the angel, dressed in white with her arms spread wide apart,
Sits at the top as if to pray for us and take us to her heart.
Our friends come in and much admire the beauty of our tree just standing there
But they do not know of the lovely memories that we hang there every year.
So I put them all away once more and truly pray
That the peace of Christ which emenated from our tree
Shall dwell with us and remain within our hearts a wa.
