No, the en- vy I'm talking about is what hap- pens inside the town itself. The kind by which we set ourselves apart. Last Monday I went down to Stratford to see the opening •night of what, for this year anyway, is the greatest show on earth. That's how it turned out too. You 'would think, wouldn't you, that this little city would be pretty proud; of what was going on there? I wonder if they were, Dn Monday evening the air was A Complete.

Now what in the world gets into good honest. -folk when they start to act like that?. Alackaday, .I fear it comes from that tincture.of envy which is often found in the strong juice of local pride. You see, we small towners are used to doing for ourselves:) We like to run our own show. We are far more likely to support a hockey team made up of good local boys than one padded. with • "imports," We like to think that ;tanything worth doing, we can do for our- selves. This was all right in the old days when each community lived pretty much to -itself; but it's no good at all these times: Whether we like. it or not, in this century, no com- munity can live alone. Cars, planes, radio, TV, telephones and news- papers which circulate all over the - world, have broken down our fenc- es. The outside world is inside now and it can never be shut out again. Some. of . ,us—like those proud citizens . of •Stratford- present this, but they might as. well give up for you can't. turn back the clock. They might as, well stop fighting the tide right now. Let them for- get the envy and. start building something they can, be proud of in • this .new ,era. Let them start building a reputation for gracious hospitality, for helpfulness to the stranger within the gates, for tol- erance and understanding. These are the very stuff of good small- town living. These are to be found, in Stratford. Let the visitors •se'e them. And that goes for all of us. Watch your step the next time you see a man with different clothes, or different skin, or a different accent. He may be doing some- thing which will change all our lives. And if he is, you can't keep it out. Remember, in these days, "No man is an island," present: ?.., , ,, Meethte I�Fn'—f�i?•�e.F'R.�'.

Seaforth Ball Team Worthy of Greater Support in Games Seaforth is staging a comeback in baseball under the AthleticeAs- sociation. This is the first time in over 15 years they have nad a base- ball team. They are entered in the Huron -Perth League, which is un- der the Ontario Baseball Associa- tion, and have an entry of nine teams. There are three divisions in the league; Intermediate B, C and D. Seaforth is in the 'C' class, -along with Mitchell, Exeter, Centralia R.C.A.F. and Clinton R.C.A.F. The Seaforth team is composed of all local boys and four players from Staffa. This is the first time for most of these players to play base- ball and they are' really doing a good job under the guidance of the manager, Jimmy Scott and coach, Gord. Muir. The roster is made up of fields Eddie Dolmage, who formerly play- ed with Clinton Colts; Don Mor- ton, Eric McCue, Ron Muir, Jack Mcllwain and Ferg Rowland in the infield. In the outfield are Bill Smith, Ray Henderson, Zeke Huis- ser, and Ferg McKellar. The two catchers are Bob Norris and Stew Henderson. For pitchers, we have Harry Jacobi, George Soils and Gary Bell. The players would like to see more fans turn out for the games. They'are playing heads -up ,ball. They haveLwon the last two games at home and have three more home games left—Exeter here on July 24, and enCtralia, July 28, and also postponed game with Mitchell, which will probably be played the first of next week. -. In the first year of baseball, it looks as if your team will be in the playoffs. So, come on, fans, let's turn out and give ,them sup- port!
