.life --just bits and pieces of it.
How do you honor men when
half the population doesn't real-
ly know what the war was all
about. How doo you commemor-
ate suffering when most of our
population doesn't know what
suffering is? Tow do you tell
your children so that they have
some respect and reverence for
these fallen .soldiers? it's a
hard job to do., and I don't think
we succeed too well.
Is all we can do talk about
it? Unfortunately, that's about
all we ever do. But there must
be something more meaningful
than that. Why can't we in-
volve those people who don't
'know what it's all about? For
one thing, we can honor the liv-
ing, There are numerous vet-
erans languishing in verterans'
hospitals who must feel like for-
gotten men. Even a periodic
visit by an individual or a group
of people would go a long way
toward relieving the boredom.
It might even make some of
these inen who came out of the
war alive feel like something
more than wards of the state,
We can also increase our ef-
forts for peace, This does not
mean that we have to scrap our
arms for the world is not going

to become a paradise overnight.
But there are any number of
ways that we can work for
peace. Supporting the United
Nations' humanitarian agencies
is a good start and x'm sure
that there are many others that
you can think about without my
listing them here.
These suggestions are no pan-
acea for reducing world ten-
sions, but they are infinitely
better than sitting around and
going through the motions of
honoring the dead. Unless we
do something new and different,
the words, "Lest We Forget",
are going to become a tired
cliche.

CBC's Front Page Challenge
gets duller by the week. Last
Monday's edition was so dull I
turned it off before the panel-
ists said "goodnight". Sinclair
and Berton usuall provide ac-
tion, but last week the producer
gave them two uninspiring
guests to identify and inter-
view. This show will have to
improve, or the ratings will go
all to hell. Viewers have a
wide choice Mondays at 9:00
with CTV presenting Ironside;
NBC has a movie; CABS runs
Mayberry and Family Affair,
and ABC shows the Outcasts.

Rowan and Martin in the num-
ber one spot ahead of—and get
this—the Saturday and Sunday
World Series games, which took
numbers two and three posi-
tions.
The comedy isn't new, but it's
the fastest -moving show of any
television program on the air
today.
Some of the dialogue goes
like this: "Let's go to my place
and watch Johnny Carson."
Answer: "I've got a better idea.
Let's go to your place and let
Johnny Carson watch us."
"I took up a collection for a
man in our office, but I didn't
get enough for one."
"Do you have a girl Friday?"
"Yes, but my Wednesday after-
noon is open."
Getting back to the ratings,
here are the other shows that
made good. Gomer Pyle was
4th, with Mayberry number 5
and Julie was 6th. Bonanza
was 7th, with Here's Lucy in
the 8th spot. Ed Sullivan and
Family Affair tied for 9th, with
the Smothers Brothers llth, and
CBS Thursday Night Movies
12th.
CBC radio reported that 2,-
795,130 people listened to the
final game of the World Series.

Huron County Board of Heald
reported to county council i
Goderich last week that it ha
met with Hon, C. S. MacNaugh
ton to discuss the possibility o
Huron being established as a
district Health Unit and thus
entitled to a 75 per cent grant
The board reported that the
Huron MLA gave them no en-
couragement in this direction,
but the minister stated that he
was pursuing the subject and
the feasibility of Huron and
Perth counties amalgamating
for health purposes.
Clifford S. Dunbar, of Grey
Township, board chairman, said
the board had approved a rec-
ommendation of the MOH, Dr.
G. P. A. Evans, appointing Mrs.
Mosemarie Evans as senior staff
public health nurse, she having
acted in this capacity on a num-
ber of occasions. "No salary in-
crease was anticipated," he said.
The board had agreed to spon-
or two students as candidates

ble for employment in the
ummer of 1970.

ory agreement had been reach -

Safety Tip
Corporal C. J. Mitchell, head
of the detachment, issued the
following warning with the com-
ing of rougher weather:
Drivers! Now that the fall
season has arrived, it has
brought with it an extra road
hazard. Colorful autumn leaves
can make a beautiful picture,
but wet slippery leaves on the
roadway can be as slippery as
grease. Wet leaves on a road-
way can skid a car into an ac-
cident. Don't wait to discover
this hazard . . . just remember
to drive with extra care, and
avoid a situation where you
can't stop in time to avoid an
accident. Also, be particularly
careful in residential and school
areas. Wet leaves on the road
could prevent you from mak-
ing an emergency stop ... and
this could mean the loss of a
child's life.

cording to Elliott Research in

total of 3,980,090 people in all
age, groups listened to one or
more games.

cess to United, Breeders Inc.,
the new organization formed by
the merger of the three old
ones,.
Ken Lantz, assistant deputy
minister of agriculture, pre-
sented the charter to United
Breeders on behalf of the gov-
ernment of Ontario. He cited
technological change as the rea-
son 'why all agriculture is con-
solidating into larger units.
Farm capital investment in On-
tario has tripled since 1941, he
said( now totalling over 4 bil-
lion dollars. The number of

size of farms increases, In 1901
only 15% of farm grossed over
$14,000 annually. By 1966 26%
had reached this figure, he said.
Mr. Lantz in closing his re-
marks, described artificial in-
semination as "in my estima-
tion the greatest milestone in
agriculture in as many years as
you want to recall".
Also among the speakers was
George Clemons, secretary -Man-
ager of the Holstein Friesian
Association and secretary of the
A.I. division, joint dairy breeds
committee. He described art -
ficial insemination industry as
"having evolved soundly".
"The original dreams and
opinions have changed," he re-
called, "and A.I. has become
one of the incredible develop-
ments of the cattle ibreeding
world, The progress of A.I. is
something everyone connected
with it should be proud of."
The merger forming United
Breeders reduces the number of
insemination co-ops in Ontario
to five. All have a close work-
ing relationship, with any units
sires available for service
through any of the others.

$250 for each $100. That's what you can get with
this year's Canada Savings Bonds. Here's how.
The new Bonds have fourteen regular annual interest
coupons which can be cashed each year as they come
due. The first pays 5.75%; the second, 6.50%; the
next three, 6.75% each, and the Last nine a big 7.00
each. Total regular annual interest amounts to $95.50
on each $100 Bond.
If you choose you may hold all these regular annual
,. interest coupons uncashed until your Bond matures.
jf you do, you will then get interest on your interest
totalling an additional $54.50 on each $100 Bond.
At maturity, .therefore, you can get back total
1.10111
interest of $150 plus your original $100 investment,
This way each $100 Canada Savings Bond becomes
worth $250. Other denominations can grow at the
same exciting rate.
Adults, children, businesses and institutions --all
may buy Canada Savings Bonds. They are avail-
able in convenient amounts of $50 up to $50,000
for cash or on instalments, wherever you work,
bank or invest. And, as always, Canada Savings
Bonds are cashable any time at full face value plus
earned interest.
Few investments are so profitable. None builds
more surely for the future. Buy Canada Savings
Bonds and make your savings really grow.
