Yes, we are returning home after a busman's holiday to the Can- adian Weekly Newspapers Con- vention at Winnipeg, plus a rest- ful weekend et Minaki Lodge on the Lake of the Woods , . . OFTEN, our friends wonder why, year after year, we take the same kind of a holiday :.. Apart from the discussions of -mutual problems in sessions and in in - Memel talks, a CWNA convention to a weekly editor -and his long suffering wife, is a thrilling ex- perience "On Being a Canad- ian" u; * a t THE stimulation of this ex- perience comes in many and diversified ways . Each years the convention is held• in a dif- ferent pact of the country and members not only learn the vast ness, of our country, •bice much a- bout the resources and problems of each province . . . This year. it was Winnipeg . . We saw much of the city and heard many of the c it y and 'provincial "greets" speak of their part, of Canada ... The remarkable way in which Winnipeg is developing the musical talent of her youth, was brought to the convention forcibly by the T. Eaton concert' party, who entertained following a dinner . . Youngsters from six to twelve, with a professional touch many of their elders never acquire, played the drums (the six year old), the eecordi'an, the violin and tap-danced , , WE saw considerable of rural Manitoba . . First, the govern- ment of the province arranged a day's trip with the CNR to Pine Falls, on the Winnipeg River, where we viewed the • workings of a large pulp and paper mill and. saw a new hydra develop- ment • ..

It was our first experience of the. Prattles from an automobile , . And what impressed us most was not the vastness of the land but the vastness of the sky Here, in Ontario, we see the sky over - heed, beautiful or otherwise... On the prairies the sky is everywhere and it drops down and envelops the land in such a way that a combine in a field or a car on the highway are as mere specks shrouded by the majesty of the heavens . The weather too, for a large area is tralnrlated to the observer by the immensity of the heavens . To the south and east the sky was silvery blue speckled with fluffy clouds .To the north- east, golden -edged white clouds came from a lowering sun, but to the west there was the dark blue of an angry sky, where white grain elevators in the far distance stood out like ghostly spectres in the mist . . . ,k * WE saw also a number of small Manitoba towns . . . Although they contained many modern homes with neat lawns and gar- dens, the town themselves lack many of those conveniences which we take for granted or howl for until our town council. provides them—i.e. waterworks, sewerage, paved sidewalks and roads, parks and playgrounds .. . We learned there are still many frontier towns • in 'Canad4a sand that Clinton is a mighty comfort- able place in which to live .. . *k,� THE groups, who entertained us so profusely, are very prom- inent in government and business in Canada . . We weeklies, as individuals, are only "small pumpkins", but together we seem to command the respect of those powers that the small man some- times looks upon with some sus- picion . . This lesson in. Can- edianism showed to you paper's representatives that people in all status of life are the same: with the same . hopes and desires, and the same enjoyment of pleasure Our hosts included the Pro- vince of Manitoba the City of Winnipeg, the Winnipeg Daily newspapers, the Canadian Bank- ers' Association, the printing equipment firms, the T. "Eaton Co., the Canadian National Rail- ways, The Canadian Pacific Rail- way, the Massey -Harris Co., Im- vertal Oil Limited, Great West Life Assurance Co.,, the Assoc- iation of Canadian Advertisers, Johnson, Everson and Charles- worth, and the Hudson's Bay Company , . . Among the enter- tainment at banquets were two fine speeches on Canadian de- velopment, one by the president of the Canadian Chamber or Commerce and the other by the Leader of the. Official Opposi- tion in Manitoba . • 4' * 4< LASTLY, in this experience "On Being a Canadian", there are the people . .

CROSSMAN Funeral service, for the late Cecil R. Grossman was held at the Ball and Mutch Funeral Home, Sunday afternoon, August 12, with Rev. H. C. Wilson of- ficiating. Interment was in Clin- ton Cemetery. Pallbearers were Elliott Bart liff, Bruce Bartliff, Douglas Bartliff, Bruce Holland, Bruce Allis and Wesley Holland. Flow- er bearers were Mervyn Batkin, H. Henry, J. McLaren, Douglas Farquhar, Ernest Radford, Alex. •Cudmore, Norman Manning and M. McAdam. The late Mr. Crossman, who died suddenly in Goderich Town- ship Thursday, August 9, in his 45th year, was born in New Brunswick, the son of the late Noble Grossman and Marion Avis Mann. The family moved to Truro, N,S. shortly afterward and here he received his educa- tion. Following six years' ser- vice with RCEME during World War II, he settled in Clinton and started a body and fender repair shop business, which he had con- ducted until his death. He was a Baptist in religion, He is survived by his wife, the former Elda J. Walton; two dau- ghters: Marion Avis and Sibyl Kaye; two sisters: Mrs. Asher Howatt, Prince Edward Island, Mrs. Roberta Coates, Toronto; two brothers'. Max D. Crossman, Van- couver, B.C., Rev. F. S. Gross- man, Saint John, N.B.; his step- mother: Mrs. Alva Crossman; and two half-brothers: Lloyd Cross- man and Avard Grossman, all of Truro, N -S, the attractive wife of Winnipeg's Mayor, on the problems of rais- ing Siamese cats . We had a tpleasant visit with Father La- Freniere, editor of the Winnipeg .French weekly, "La Liberia" and 'also an RCAF padre, and Mr. and Mrs, Brunelle Leveille, the for- mer, manager of the same paper . We had not seen these rep- resentatives from La Liberte since the Halifax convention five years ago, but it was as yester- day... * e 4, WE had many pleasant chats. with Herbert Lash, head of CNR public relations and enjoyed the CNR "Fort Garry" hospitality— the convention was at the CPR's - "Royal Alexandra" We had a visit from F/O Hal Grant, just recently moved to Winnipeg from Clinton and he was most anxious to catch up on Clinton and Air Force gossip , .One morning we were awakened rather earlier than pleased us by the phone ringing, but the annoyance was dispelled when we heard the cheery voice of F/L Ray Agnew, who had flown to Winnipeg the night before and had just read in the morning papers that the CWNA. was convening in Win- nipeg, so tailed on the chance the Atkeys would be there . Unfortunately, he left a half hour lane to return to Greenwood, N S Among those from On- tario were Gordon Hall, Cayuga, former Clintonian; Mel Souhhcott, cur friendly neighbour from Ex- eter; and our old .friends, the Ken Walls from Barrie, who were happy in winning the Mason Trophy, emblematic of the best Canadian weekly in the over- 3,000 circulation class . , m THIUS. it is not hard to see how the resultant experience makes itpossible for the weekly editor (and his wife—if she hap- pens to acquire the numerous chores we have recently) to at- tack his problems with renewed vieotur and to give his readers a tolerant and thoughtful interpre- tation of the town and district its happenings, its problems and its aspirations. * 4' "On Being a Canadian" is the title of a fine little book on the subject of Canadian life and culture, whose author is Rt, Hon. Vincent Massey. o . Goderich Sells Bonds At Less Than 4.50 A Toronto syndicate headed, by. J. L.
