Mr. Bennett gave a talk the other night
to the Junior Chamber of Commerce et Gode-
rich which we thought expressed some ex-
cellent sentiments. 21e pointed out that rural
and urban people are becoming more and more
dependent on each ether. At one time rural
residents and townspeople lived relatively in-
dependently of each other, es fa<mder�otns-
pro
duced much of their clothing
people raised livestock to produce much of
their 'food.
With the growth of the population and
the, machine age, the farmer has been forced
more and more to concentrate on the raising
of large quantities of food to feed the urban
people. Similarly, he has had to turn to the
urban centres for the purchase of finished
goods such as clothing and maohhnery.
In this inter -dependency of rural and
urban people, it is becoming more and more
the prices they received or .---
good; .the cost of living for them has increesed
accordingly.
Stere are many evidences of rural -urban
cooperation round Shout us in Huron County.
Dwellers in the rural sections andthe towns
may not see. exactly eye -to -eye on every single
point, but they are not very far apart on
the essentials. Such evidences of cooperation
include the Huron County Seed Fair, held Fri-
day end Saturday last the activities of the
various agricultural societies; and
to thecurrent
rrent
problem of erecting a e
Col-
legiate Institute to cope with ever-increasing
attendance from town and country alike. And
urban organizations such CS the Lions Club
and the Chamber of Commerce are proud to
have farmers among their best members.
It is as plein as the nose an one's face
that it is to the advantage of all that co-
operation and understanding always should
be the guiding sentiments of the rural and
urhan people alike.
