HIGH SCHOOL NEWS
Initiation for grade nine was
held last Friday before the
dance started. If you saw some
of them on Main Street singing
Christmas Carols or out at the
nearest cemetery counting the
tombstones, don't thinTc they
were crazy because it was all
part of the initiation.
The Christmas dance on Wed.
Des. 22 will be the next big
event at the school.
Plans Are already underway
for the formal dance which will
be held on Jan. 14. If anybody
has any invitations for this
dance they had better be taken
to the office before the holidays
start.
The Christmas cards are in
and the money must be handed
in by Thursday or they will be
sold to someone else.
The pictures that were taken
a few weeks ago arrived on Mon-
day. Something new has been
added in the form of a self -pho-
tographed Christmas seal. These
pictures nntst be paid for or
handed in by Thursday,

On Dec. 13, 21 adults of the
Fireside Farm Forum met at the
home of Mr, and Mrs. Bob Dal-
ton to discuss the topic, "How
the young farmer can get start-
ed". In Ontario the difficulty is
not to find suitable farms or to
find young men who wish to
farm, but to find the necessary
capital or backing. In Eastern
Ontario in 1953 the average
capital investment per farmer
was 420,560. Young men • may
be fortunate enough to secure
some financial help, or backing
from their fathers and if living'
close by may save greatly by
using much of the same ma-
chinery. War Veterans may se-
cure help from the Veterans
Land Act which has a financial
interest in one out of 13 farms
in Canada, and frequently se-
cure very valuable advice from
them, Canadian Farm Loan
Board provides long term credit.
The Farm Improvement Loan
Act operates in the field of
shorter credit. The junior farmer
loan establishment of Ontario
will loan a maximum of $6000
to an experienced young roan.
Young farmers and their wives
should not try to start with too
much, but should learn to do
without unnecessary things for
a few years, and use less expen-
sive equipment, cars, etc. Ex-
change help with their neighbors

discussion was held led by
John Solden with 25 members
present. 1(1) To what sources do
young farmers in your area look
for credit when' they estab-
lish their own farms. The young
farmers in this area turn to the
various loan Corporations, such
as V.L.A., Junior Farmer Estab-
lishment Loan Corp., but in the
majority of cases, mortgages are
obtained from private sources.
Banks finance the purchases of
farm implements etc. (2) How
can a young farmer avoid un-
duly heavy investments in land,
livestock and equipment when
getting started? We think that
with the present prices of farm
products, coupled with the tre-
mendous cost of buying and
equiping a farm of his own, very
often equals the cost of the
farin. A young farmer would-
have to revert to the horse and
buggy methods of his fore-
fathers.
This forum suggest that young
farmers should rent land adja-
cent to his father's farm.
After this discussion progres-
sive euchre was held. Prize win-
ners: Ladies, Mrs. John Solden;
Gents, Howard Adkins. Next
meeting will be held at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Glen Weido.
