Mr. Editor:
According to your apologies
in last week's paper you still
want to make your readers be-
lieve there was only about 100
People at the Liberal meeting
in St. Joseph Parish Hall on
October 14, by saying you don't
know where everybody sat if
there was more than 100 people.
Well, let me tell you, 'Mister
Editor, anytime you want proof
that we can easily put 200 and
more in our parish hall • just
come over and I'll give you
every proof you want. I know
how many chairs and benches
there was that night because I
helped set everything up for
the meeting.
I don't like to make a big
thing out of this, but I live in
a free country and I think I
have the right to fight for the
truth and I don't expect to stop
before your paper really admits
there were about 200 people at
that meeting and not just about
100 like you are trying to get
away with.
Yours truly,
John M. Laporte.

Give Enough To Ensure Success
The campaign for funds for Blue Water
Rest Home is now in progress. This is the
biggest project of its type ever to be staged
in this part of the county, and it needs
solid support from every citizen of the
area.
To ensure success in the campaign,
we all must be generous in our givings.
All those who heard the inspiring message
of Father Doyle at the kick-off dinner Sat-
urday night realize the importance of the
campaign, and the need to be generous in
our gifts.
We must all realize that donations of
twenty-five and fifty dollars are not big
enough to meet a quota such as we have,
on this project. Our senior citizens are
the most important people in our commun-
ities, and we must make sure of their hap-
piness in their declining years. In the
words of Father Doyle, we must "think
big, act big and give big. We must give
'till it hurts."
Who Pays the Bills
Often, when we read the annual re-
ports of the churches and other public
bodies in this municipality, we wonder how
they manage to continue the work they
do on the revenue they receive.
Every organization has its unselfish
and completely generous supporters, some
of whom must be giving until it really
hurts. But the salient factor is that a large
majority give only what they think they
can spare after all their own needs and
luxuries have been provided far.
If such people were non-Christians in
every sense of the word, if they saw no
need to have their children christened, if
they intended only to be married before
a magistrate, or if they intended to bury
their loved ones without benefit of church
or clergy, the situation would be more un-
derstandable.
But that is far from the case.
Citizens expect the church and its min-
ister to be available for all the important
events in their lives, but they let somebody
else worry about how the neighbourhood
church will be kept in operation between
the times they want to use it.—(The Lions
Gate (West Vancouver, B.C.) Times)
The Brighter Light
Louis McKenna, current president of
the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Associa-
tion, is another weekly newspaper pub-
lisher who believes in his work.
In a brief paragraph in his speech of
acceptance of the office, he noted that
there are free thinkers in Canada, which
he condones as something with possibly
some useful purpose. But, in his opinion,
"sensible thinking is of far more impor-
tance to Canada, and it is in this field
where the weekly newspapers stand out as
a light brighter than that .of any other
type of medium."
But .some people, in every field of
enedeavour, are inclined to hide their light
under a bushel.—(The Printed Word)
