Rev. and Mrs. M. J. James
and family spent a few days
with Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Cooke,
Bowling Scores
in Balnwinsvville, N.Y.
Addressing a group of high
school teachers the other night,
I was recalling how I entered
the ... uh ... teaching game,
business, vocation, profession or
racket - what you call it de-
pends on who you are -purely
by accident.
I had brought my family to
this town one Sunday to have a
look at the sights, as we had't
been here before.
On the way out of town, we
drove around the side streets to
admire the fine homes. "That's
odd," I said to my wife. "There's
a big, new factory smack in the
middle of the residential sec-
tion. They don't usually allow
that."
Then I saw the roadblock
out in front of the sprawling
one -storey factory. There was a
grim gent beside it, well-dress-
ed but with a sort of wild glint
in his eye. He flagged me
down.
I stopped. He •came over to
the car. "Can you see out of at
least one eye?" he queried . I
assured him that I had 40-40
vision, or something of the sort.
I thought it was some kind of
kooky, plain clot he s policy
check, the kind you run into
when you•ve left your driving
license in your other pants."
"Ever been to a university?"
he shot at me. I said I'd been
to Oxford. I remember spend-
ing a whole week -end there
during the war, waiting for a
Land Army girl who never did
show up.
He brightened considerably.
"Have you any contagious dis-
eases?" was the next question.
"Like leprosy?" I told him I
was as sound as any man in
my condtion could be.
Beaming now, he went on
with the questionnaire. "And
you don't drink, smoke, play
the horses or chase women.
Right?"
I started to point out that I
did all of these whenever pos-

.ems .e,e
sible, but not all the time, and
not all at once. But he wasn't
listening. He had the car door
open and me by the arm, and
was hustling me toward that
big, brick factory that looked
more like a prison every sec-
ond. I thought I was under ar-
rest.
When we got inside, he
shoved me into a chair, and I
waited, fearfully, for the bright
light in the face, and the rub-
ber hose. But he fooled me. He
stuck a confession under my
nose and snarled. "Sign here."
I signed, wondering what had
become of Magna Carta, Habeas
Corpus and my family, out in
the car.
It was not until he offered to
show me the gymnasium and
the cafeteria that I realized the
factory was a high school, and
that I had just experienced the
hard sell on teachers.
However, it wasn't much of a
switch for me. I know that the
jump into teaching, from big
industrialist, shoe salesman or
short-order cook has been a
traumatic experience for some
people. You can see them any
day, tottering white-faced to-
ward the staff room, after a
double period with 10Z, the
terror of the school.
DISCUSS FUTURE OF FAIRS - Repre-
sentatives of agricultural societies in Perth
and Huron counties gathered in Clinton last
week for their annual meeting. Some of the
officals taking part in the discussions were,
left to right, V. L. Becker, Dashwood; Earl
Dick, Cromarty; Frank Falconer, Clinton,
and George Watt, Blyth.
Leaders of District Agric .+!tura!
Soceties Discuss Future of Firs
From ten until four on Tues-
day, November 9, top executives
in agricultural societies through-
out Huron and Perth, consid-
ered at length, and also in
depth, the difficulties, pleasures
and profits involved in operat-
ing rural fairs within these two
counties.
At this meeting of Zone 8,
Ontario Agricultural Societies,
(first one ever to be held in
Clinton) segregation was prac-
tised to some degree, with the
ladies meeting in the town hall
and the men in the agricultural
board rooms.
Earl Dick, Cromarty, as presi-
dent, convened the men's ses-
sions, while Mrs. Delmer Skin-
ner, Centralia, was in charge of
the session dealing with the
women's divisions of the fairs.
Doug Miles, agricultural rep-
resentative for Huron, spoke
to the men during the morning
session, and asked that they
look into the future, to see
what lies ahead for the fairs.
"We cannot succeed, merely by
going along with tradition," he
said.
"Fairs began as an educa-
tional feature," said Miles. "We
have to ask if our fairs are
put on for a show? to make
money? merely to keep alive?
We should look at the consti-
tution of the Fairs Act, and
consider w h e t h er changes
should be made."
He asked, "How long can we
expect farmers to be away from
their farms, to work at some-
thing which may be only a
show? Labor is scarce, and
may get worse, Farmers may
not be able to attend all the
meetings of all the organiza-
tions.
"Last night and this morn-
ing, I believe we buried one
farm organization in Huron,"
said Mr. Miles, "and I expect
that in another four to six
months another five will be
b u r i e d. There may be one
formed to replace these last
But I had little difficulty in
making the adjustment. After
all, I had been a weekly news-
paper editor. In that job, you
spend most of your time telling
people things they don't listen
to, and urging them to do things
they don't want to do. I found
these invaluable training for
my teaching career.
And I must admit that things
have gone well. In three years
I fought my way up to a de-
partment headship. Oh, it took
a lot of midnight oil burning,
coffee buying for the principal,
and the fact that they couldn't
get anybody else for the job.
But I made it.
And now I have my own
little empire: a dozen or so
English teachers who are so in
awe of me that they never
borrow more than $10; and
assistant department head who
hangs on my every word, and
then contradicts it; and the
thrill of attending department
heads' meetings, of being on
the inside, where the big de-
cisions are made.
Like what are we gonna do
with kids who carve "Herb
Loves Elsie" on the desks.
HAY and STANLEY FEDERATION OF AGRICULTURE
JOINT ANNUAL MEETING
IN THE

five. Farmers may only be
able to find time to meet long
enough to form policies, and
hire others to carry out our
wishes," he predicted.
"Farmers must be consumer
oriented, if we are to gain our
rightful place in the economy
Maybe we have talked too much
about out ability to produce
cheap food."
"How long before we can
have one 4-H day in the coun-
ty?" he asked.
"How long can we continue
charging 75 cents to $1.00 to
people who come to see our
small fairs? and what are we
showing them for that much
money?"
However, during the after-
noon session, there was no rep-
resentative willing to concede
that small fairs should be amal-
gamated with others, nor that
they were not doing a good job
for the communities in which
they operate.
Warden Rudolph Bauer,
Perth County, urged continuing
fairs as "the show windows of
the farm industry". He predict-
ed that a farm area without a
fair was like a city without any
downtown stores. "Fairs are
good", said Bauer, "as a way to
advertise our product."
Another warning came from
a Mr. Switzer, of the Kirkton
fair, who suggested that 4-H
club participation was large
now, because the children were
not shy of showing in their
community, but would not at-
tempt showing at a county fair,
or •a larger fair in another com-
munity.
Jim Reaney, of the Mitchell
fair, predicted that a future
meeting, a debate on this topic

of "amalgamation of fairs"
could be interesting. He sug-
gested that plenty of time for
preparation of material should
be given, and then the event
could have considerable weight.
Ron Beggs, Toronto (appear-
ing for F. A, Lashley), repre-
senting the Ontario Depart-
ment of Agriculture, suggested
that the fairs consider now
preparing special programs for
1967 to fit in with the cen-
tennial of Canada.
Reports of activities within
the various fairs made up the
major portion of the day's pro-
gram. Site for next year's
meeting will be St. Marys.
Dinner was served in On-
tario Street United Church by
members of the United Church
Women of Turner's Unite d
Church, and slides of a family

to Clinton by councillor Jim
Armstrong, acting for Mayor
Symons. Among guests were

Webb, Dashwood, and the agri-
cultural representative of Perth
County. Rev. Grant Mills, of
the host church, asked grace
prior to dinner.
