Above all, however, was the
necessity of developing that type

Mr. Thomas congratulated the

Has March Meeting
The March meeting of the Sea -
forth Unit F.W.T.A.O. was held
Wednesday evening, when Miss
Mabel Turnbull acted as hostess.
Due to unfavorable weather con-
ditions, only six members were
present.
Mrs. Mason read an informative
report on the Seaforth Public
School, concerning Staff, Custo-
dian, Assembly, Rules and Health
Program. Loraine Smith report-
ed on education through the use
of supplementary reading.
The mystery prize was won by
Mrs. Kellar. At the close of the
meeting, Miss Turnbull served an
enjoyable lunch. A banquet is
planned for the final meeting in
May.
In the Canadian Teachers' Fed-
eration News Letter, an interest-
ing report was read, concerning
Mr. Freeman Stewart, executive
secretary of the C.E.A. Mr. Stew-
art was the representative on the
Canadian delegation to Monte-
video, Uruguay, at the UNESCU
General Conference, and in a re-
cent address gave bis impressions
of the conference.
"UNESCO, the largest of all for-
mal inter -governmental organiza-
tions, has seventy-two member na-
tions, compared with the UN mem-
b eship of fifty-six. If you con -
der in your own .neighborhood
the variety of opinions about edu-
cation and culture, you will get
some idea of the variety of views
and hopes that some seventy-two
nations can have of UNESCO.
` It is encouraging to world
peace .. that seventy-two nations
could study together for four weeks
comparatively free from world
politics. Although there was po-
litical tenseness, there were no
political outbursts." .
"In a highly complex and
a somewhat hysterical world,
UNESCO serves a valuable func-
tion in bringing nations together
to talk agreeably, among other
things, of the peaceful use ' of
atomic power and of methods of
peaceful co-operation' through edu-
cation, the social sciences, and
mass media. UNESCO has an an-
nual budget of eleven million dol-
lars, less than half the education
budget of the city of Toronto. In
terms of its total wealth, there-
fore, the world has not much to
lose, and it may possibly gain a
good deal. by the investment of
this small amount of money in
UNESCO."
Brooding Chicks
Good brooding is the first step
towards getting the most from
good breeding.
The floors, walls and ceilings of
the brooder house or brooder pens
must be thoroughly cleaned and
swept and then scrubbed with a
disinfectant such as a hot lye wa-
ter solution to kill bacteria, para-
sites and worm eggs—(1-pound can
of lye to 10 gallons of water). Lye
works on humans too — protect
your eyes and skin. After the
floor and walls have dried, paint
the roosts, roost supports, and ad-
joining walls with used motor oil,
coal oil, carbolineum or other
mite control products. Avoid rav-
ing oil fumes and fire in the house
at the same time.
Brooders
Choice of brooding unit depends
on the season of brooding, con-
struction and insulation of brooder
building and fuel costs.
With any electric units, some
supplemental heat will be neces-
sary for mid -winter brooding and
as an alternative heating system
ready in case of power failure, A
battery alarm system asay be
cheap protection, Do not overload
wiring, also check with insurance
company for fire hazard on build-
ings.
Be sure to install overflow pipes
on oil brooders and keep these
pipes open. Protect litter from op-
en flames and keep heat lamps at
a safe height. Be sure supports
for hanging units are strong en-
ough and securely locked or tied
—no brooding unit is entirely fool
proof.
Chicks
Do not brood more than 500
chicks intended for replacement
stock (350 is better) under one
brooder unit. More than 500
chicks in one group will have to
be down in a thick band at night
around the hover—some may get
cold, others hot and sweat—result,
weakened, uneven chicks.
Floor Space
Allow one-half square foot of
floor space per chick to four weeks
of age, one square foot of floor
space for chicks four to eight
weeks of age, and one and one -
ball square feet per chick to 12
'weeks of age.
Feeders
Commence with two, three-foot
chick size troughs per 100 chicks.
When chicks are four weeks of age
double the size and number of
feeders. For the first week keep
the feeders filled so the chicks will
learn to feed and after that time
never fill the feeders more than
one-third to one-half full—to pre-
vent feed wastage. Place the feed-
ers at right angles to the brooder
so chicks may move away from
the heat without crowding.
Waterers
A constant supply of :.water is
essential for normal growth—
small jar fountains at first, fol-
lowed by larger metal fountains,
pans, troughs or automatic water-
ers. These may be placed on
boards or wire stands as chicks
get older to prevent waterers be-
coming filled with litter.
Brooding Temperature
Taken at the edge of the hover,
at the height of the chick's back,
should be 95 deg. F. to 98 deg. F.
for the first week and reduce 5
deg. F. each week till a tempera-
ture of 70 deg. F. is reached.
Chick comfort is essential and
is best gauged by observing the
chicks. If they crowd under the
brooder they need more heat. If
too hot, they need ventilation in
the pen. This Is especially true as
the season advances.
Overheating, Overcrowding, lack
of sufficient feeding space are
contribute ha ire§ of 1m -thrifti-
ness, eat% bOiont and ;digeese.
CROSSROADS
(By JAMES SCOTT)
A TRICK QUESTION
When we were having' our public
speaking class up at the night
classes in the High School, one
time the students ganged up on
me aid said, `Well, you have been
telling- us how to do it all winter
long, what about you giving us a
talk for a change and show us
how well you can obey the rules?”
Not only that, but they set the
topic for me. It was, "What's
Wrong With Seaforth?"
When I 'had finished this some-
what arduous assignment, it was am
suggested that the gist of what I
said might fill the Crossroads
ane what is wrong with Seaforth.
It takes some. of us a long time!
to learn these things; but this town.
is a wonderful teacher. There are
so many people here who work
well together that the rest of us
have learned to join in too. All
we have to watch is that we stay
that way. All L.have to do is keep
in mind that the next time I want
to welch on a job which I could and
should do is that if I let the com-
munity down, then once again I
what is wrong with Seaforth.
space. So here goes:
When I was writing exams in
school every so often we would
come upon one which looked easy,
but when you examined it, it turn-
ed out to be unexpectedly diffi-
cult. We used to call that a "trick
question." And that's how I feel
about the topic, "What's Wrong
With Seaforth?" On the surface,
it might look easy—since, by the
very nature of things, nothing in
this world yet has been found to
be perfect—but the more I think
about it, the trickier it becomes.
However, if you examine any-
thing long enough, you begin to
see things which you never sus-
pected were there. When I look-
ed at the problem of what was
wrong with my town, I came to
the not too happy conclusion that,
a`s far as I could see, I am what
is wrong with Seaforth.
What I mean is something like
this: I am the kind of fellow
whose work might well be carried
on anywhere. I don't have to live
here to make what I optimistical-
ly call a living. I could be doing
it anywhere. But I chose to come
back to the town where I was born
because it looked like a nice, quiet;
friendly place to live. I was look-
ing for a place to retreat to and
I thought Seaforth would be it.
Here, I thought, a man can be on
his own with no one to bother him.
He can do what he wants when
he wants.
What I should have known is
that no man is an island. Not
one of us in the world can live by
himself. What's more, any fel-
low who has this attitude is no
earthly use to the community
which shelters him 'and provides
a pleasant environment for him.
Anybody with an attitude like
mine is a dead loss and I am
convinced that if there is anything
wrong with this town of ours it
comes from selfish people with
attitudes like that one I came here
with.
The saving thing, of course, is
that not everybody is like that
and, in spite of yourself, you will
find that sooner or later, one way
or another, you absolutely have to
become involved in the community
you live in.
That's what everybody in our
public speaking class found. Re-
gardless of the reasons behind
their entering the course, they all
found that the best and most en-
joyable results came from build-
ing a true community spirit with-
in the group. We had young peo-
ple, and some not so young, men
and women with different busi-
nesses and interests, yet by the
end of the year we found we could
all work and learn together.
This is precisely the thing which
makes or breaks towns. Any im-
perfections which we may have
are the result of people pulling
apart instead of together. Every
time I fail to take my share of
community responsibility, then I

Has March Meeting
The March meeting of the Sea -
forth Unit F.W.T.A.O. was held
Wednesday evening, when Miss
Mabel Turnbull acted as hostess.
Due to unfavorable weather con-
ditions, only six members were
present.
Mrs. Mason read an informative
report on the Seaforth Public
School, concerning Staff, Custo-
dian, Assembly, Rules and Health
Program. Loraine Smith report-
ed on education through the use
of supplementary reading.
The mystery prize was won by
Mrs. Kellar. At the close of the
meeting, Miss Turnbull served an
enjoyable lunch. A banquet is
planned for the final meeting in
May.
In the Canadian Teachers' Fed-
eration News Letter, an interest-
ing report was read, concerning
Mr. Freeman Stewart, executive
secretary of the C.E.A. Mr. Stew-
art was the representative on the
Canadian delegation to Monte-
video, Uruguay, at the UNESCU
General Conference, and in a re-
cent address gave bis impressions
of the conference.
"UNESCO, the largest of all for-
mal inter -governmental organiza-
tions, has seventy-two member na-
tions, compared with the UN mem-
b eship of fifty-six. If you con -
der in your own .neighborhood
the variety of opinions about edu-
cation and culture, you will get
some idea of the variety of views
and hopes that some seventy-two
nations can have of UNESCO.
` It is encouraging to world
peace .. that seventy-two nations
could study together for four weeks
comparatively free from world
politics. Although there was po-
litical tenseness, there were no
political outbursts." .
"In a highly complex and
a somewhat hysterical world,
UNESCO serves a valuable func-
tion in bringing nations together
to talk agreeably, among other
things, of the peaceful use ' of
atomic power and of methods of
peaceful co-operation' through edu-
cation, the social sciences, and
mass media. UNESCO has an an-
nual budget of eleven million dol-
lars, less than half the education
budget of the city of Toronto. In
terms of its total wealth, there-
fore, the world has not much to
lose, and it may possibly gain a
good deal. by the investment of
this small amount of money in
UNESCO."
Brooding Chicks
Good brooding is the first step
towards getting the most from
good breeding.
The floors, walls and ceilings of
the brooder house or brooder pens
must be thoroughly cleaned and
swept and then scrubbed with a
disinfectant such as a hot lye wa-
ter solution to kill bacteria, para-
sites and worm eggs—(1-pound can
of lye to 10 gallons of water). Lye
works on humans too — protect
your eyes and skin. After the
floor and walls have dried, paint
the roosts, roost supports, and ad-
joining walls with used motor oil,
coal oil, carbolineum or other
mite control products. Avoid rav-
ing oil fumes and fire in the house
at the same time.
Brooders
Choice of brooding unit depends
on the season of brooding, con-
struction and insulation of brooder
building and fuel costs.
With any electric units, some
supplemental heat will be neces-
sary for mid -winter brooding and
as an alternative heating system
ready in case of power failure, A
battery alarm system asay be
cheap protection, Do not overload
wiring, also check with insurance
company for fire hazard on build-
ings.
Be sure to install overflow pipes
on oil brooders and keep these
pipes open. Protect litter from op-
en flames and keep heat lamps at
a safe height. Be sure supports
for hanging units are strong en-
ough and securely locked or tied
—no brooding unit is entirely fool
proof.
Chicks
Do not brood more than 500
chicks intended for replacement
stock (350 is better) under one
brooder unit. More than 500
chicks in one group will have to
be down in a thick band at night
around the hover—some may get
cold, others hot and sweat—result,
weakened, uneven chicks.
Floor Space
Allow one-half square foot of
floor space per chick to four weeks
of age, one square foot of floor
space for chicks four to eight
weeks of age, and one and one -
ball square feet per chick to 12
'weeks of age.
Feeders
Commence with two, three-foot
chick size troughs per 100 chicks.
When chicks are four weeks of age
double the size and number of
feeders. For the first week keep
the feeders filled so the chicks will
learn to feed and after that time
never fill the feeders more than
one-third to one-half full—to pre-
vent feed wastage. Place the feed-
ers at right angles to the brooder
so chicks may move away from
the heat without crowding.
Waterers
A constant supply of :.water is
essential for normal growth—
small jar fountains at first, fol-
lowed by larger metal fountains,
pans, troughs or automatic water-
ers. These may be placed on
boards or wire stands as chicks
get older to prevent waterers be-
coming filled with litter.
Brooding Temperature
Taken at the edge of the hover,
at the height of the chick's back,
should be 95 deg. F. to 98 deg. F.
for the first week and reduce 5
deg. F. each week till a tempera-
ture of 70 deg. F. is reached.
Chick comfort is essential and
is best gauged by observing the
chicks. If they crowd under the
brooder they need more heat. If
too hot, they need ventilation in
the pen. This Is especially true as
the season advances.
Overheating, Overcrowding, lack
of sufficient feeding space are

CROSSROADS
(By JAMES SCOTT)
A TRICK QUESTION
When we were having' our public
speaking class up at the night
classes in the High School, one
time the students ganged up on
me aid said, `Well, you have been
telling- us how to do it all winter
long, what about you giving us a
talk for a change and show us
how well you can obey the rules?”
Not only that, but they set the
topic for me. It was, "What's
Wrong With Seaforth?"
When I 'had finished this some-
what arduous assignment, it was am
suggested that the gist of what I
said might fill the Crossroads
ane what is wrong with Seaforth.
It takes some. of us a long time!
to learn these things; but this town.
is a wonderful teacher. There are
so many people here who work
well together that the rest of us
have learned to join in too. All
we have to watch is that we stay
that way. All L.have to do is keep
in mind that the next time I want
to welch on a job which I could and
should do is that if I let the com-
munity down, then once again I
what is wrong with Seaforth.
space. So here goes:
When I was writing exams in
school every so often we would
come upon one which looked easy,
but when you examined it, it turn-
ed out to be unexpectedly diffi-
cult. We used to call that a "trick
question." And that's how I feel
about the topic, "What's Wrong
With Seaforth?" On the surface,
it might look easy—since, by the
very nature of things, nothing in
this world yet has been found to
be perfect—but the more I think
about it, the trickier it becomes.
However, if you examine any-
thing long enough, you begin to
see things which you never sus-
pected were there. When I look-
ed at the problem of what was
wrong with my town, I came to
the not too happy conclusion that,
a`s far as I could see, I am what
is wrong with Seaforth.
What I mean is something like
this: I am the kind of fellow
whose work might well be carried
on anywhere. I don't have to live
here to make what I optimistical-
ly call a living. I could be doing
it anywhere. But I chose to come
back to the town where I was born
because it looked like a nice, quiet;
friendly place to live. I was look-
ing for a place to retreat to and
I thought Seaforth would be it.
Here, I thought, a man can be on
his own with no one to bother him.
He can do what he wants when
he wants.
What I should have known is
that no man is an island. Not
one of us in the world can live by
himself. What's more, any fel-
low who has this attitude is no
earthly use to the community
which shelters him 'and provides
a pleasant environment for him.
Anybody with an attitude like
mine is a dead loss and I am
convinced that if there is anything
wrong with this town of ours it
comes from selfish people with
attitudes like that one I came here
with.
The saving thing, of course, is
that not everybody is like that
and, in spite of yourself, you will
find that sooner or later, one way
or another, you absolutely have to
become involved in the community
you live in.
That's what everybody in our
public speaking class found. Re-
gardless of the reasons behind
their entering the course, they all
found that the best and most en-
joyable results came from build-
ing a true community spirit with-
in the group. We had young peo-
ple, and some not so young, men
and women with different busi-
nesses and interests, yet by the
end of the year we found we could
all work and learn together.
This is precisely the thing which
makes or breaks towns. Any im-
perfections which we may have
are the result of people pulling
apart instead of together. Every
time I fail to take my share of
community responsibility, then I
