Zurich Citizens News, 1965-11-18, Page 6PAGE SIX ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS THURSDAY,'NOVEMBER 13, 1965 Bank of Montreal Announces New Centennial Competition for Farmers A competitive $100,000 awards program, to develop 50 leaders in Canada's farming communi- ties in all parts of the country, was announced this week by G. Arnold Hart, chairman and president of the Bank of Mont- real. Mr. Hart said that the pro- gram — the Bank of Montreal Canada Centennial Farm Lead- ership Awards — is open to all men and women engaged full- time in farming. It offers 50 awards of $2,000 each—half in Eastern Canada and half in Western Canada— "to encourage and expand lead- ership qualities in people in rural areas to enable them to meet the problems arising from growing technological and sci- entific advances in agriculture and vastly changed economic conditions," Mr. Hart said. The new scheme is designed as "a salute to the Canadian farmer for the great contribu- tion he has made to the devel- opment of the nation". It is the B of M's third project to mark the centennial and the bank's 150th anniversary in 1967. Farmers' Initiative Awards will be made on the basis of the value and feasibility of projects of candidates' own choosing and initiative to im- prove their personal contribu- tion to their communities, plus their record in community ac- tivities. "On completion of their pro- jects, the 50 winners will be expected to undertake definite programs in their communities, to share their new knowledge and experience for the benefit of community development," Mr. Hart said.

In- dependent selection committees have been formed for the east- ern area, under the chairman- ship of Dr. J. Gordon Taggart, former federal deputy minister of agriculture; for the western area, under the chairmanship of Dr. L. E. Kirk, former dean of agriculture and former chair- man of the board of governors of the University of Saskatche- wan. The committees are other- wise drawn mainly from agri- cultural colleges across the country. Travel and Study The B of M awards provide an opportunity for farm people to undertake worthwhile travel and study projects based on their own ideas, to increase their knowledge of modern rural -development techniques. In addition to receiving the $2,000 awards, winners will at- tend expense -paid, two-day sem- inars at centres in eastern and western Canada in the spring of 1966 and again in the spring of 1967. Mr. Hart pointed out, "The aim of the plan is not to pro- duce better farmers as such, by providing awards to successful farmers in recognition of achievements in their farming operation. Rather, the objec- tive is to produce better citi- zens who can assume leader- ship in developing better rural communities. Handbooks f o r candidates giving full details of the B of M Canada Centennial Farm Lead- ership Awards plan, including application forms, are available at all branches of the bank. 0 Ste Peter's C , Pw Pick Clothing n L The regular monthly meeting was opened with prayer by the president.
