Serious Problem Demands Positive Action
The is an increasing tendency

ltes AG take positive action in cases
• Where'students refuse to put forth
•any effort whatsoever while in atten-
• dance at school. The problem is dis-
cussed in an article by Teacher Don
Thomas, of Kenora High School,
which appears elsewhere in this is-
sue.
The London Free Press, discuss-
ing the situation, agrees that the
problem is a serious one and must be
tackled with full appreciation of
what is involved. It is not something
that will solve itself.
"At a time when the community
is called upon to spend large sums for
buildings and teachers to accommo-
date. growing grotips of children it is
surely entitled to ask that the young-
sters make real efforts to use the
facilities provided, or give place to
Others who can and will," the Free
nee
says. "Teachers cannot pour
knowledge into students who refuse
to absorb it,
',Tut great care should he Used if
such a weapon is put in the hands of
teachers. The Calgary scheme, which
prompted much of the discussion,
provides for another chance in a lat-
er year for the students who are, ask-
ed to leave. Nor is this initial action
taken until there has been thorough
discussion, not merely with the young
people themselves, but with their
parents.

Drive Defensively
Perhaps if ,more of us adopted a
code of driving behaviour which is
widely accepted by professional driv-
ers there would be fewer accidents.
Usually called "defensive driving,"
the procedure is defined by the Bri-
tish Road Services:
A defensive driver is one who is
careful to commit no driving errors
himself;• who makes allowances for
the lack of skill or improper attitude
on the part of the other fellow, and
who does not allow hazards of wea-
ther and road conditions, or the ac-
tion of pedestrians and other drivers,
to involve him in any accident.
He keeps continually on the alert,
recognizes an accident -producing sit-
uation far enough in advance to ap-
ply the necessary preventive action,
and concedes the right of way when
necessary to prevent an accident.
Defensive driving can be summed
up in these three words — Control,
Courtesy and Concentration, where -
is the defensive driver can be de-
scribed in one word—he anticipates.

The Newmarket Era and Express
draws our attention to a recom-
mendation that persons over 60 who
• own their own homes should be ex-
empt from school taxes, which was
one of the chief resolutions put at
• the final session of the First Ontario
Conference on Aging. The confer-
ence was held under the chairman-
ship of Dr. J. D. Griffin at Convoca-
tion Hall, Toronto. The four-day
.conference was attended by more
• than 600 delegates and representa-
tiveg of churches, government de-
partments, trade unions and volun-
tary organizations.

many senior citizens who have plan-
ted well for retirement and own
,their homes, have suffered hardships

school sobered and steadied by con-
tact with the demands of life outside
school walls. Education then takes
on a new value, the student takes on
a new attitude.
"Perhaps a quiet chat by the prin-
cipal with the student and, if that
fails, with his parents, can accom-
plish a good deal. Certainly every ef-
fort should be made to salvage as
much as possible of promising hu-
man material. And it might be well
to avoid giving undue opportunities
for banished students to pose as her-
oes before their classmates."
Whether such steps as are sug-
gested will be sufficient to offset what
is becoming a fashionable trend
among a certain class of students re-
mains to be seen. What is certain is
that whatever might be necessary to
return the classrooms to students—
those interested in what the school
has to offer them—must be done.
A Man Arouncl the House
(Brockville Recorder and Times)
Some men, when convalescing
from an illness, on their days off, or
when they retire and are home most
of the time, seem to feel it their duty
to trail their wife around the house,
pointing out ways by which she could
more efficiently do her housework.
Some of them like to open cup-
board doors and inquire the reason
for so many cans or packages of this
and that. Others like to wait until
the dishes are all done and the kit-
chen straightened away and then an-
nounce that they are hungry and will
make themselves a little snack. The
"little snack" of course dirties all
kinds of odd dishes, to say nothing of
leaving fruit peelings and crumbs all
over the table and floor !
Probably much of the friction be-
tween husbands and wives is traced
back to the husband -"hanging around
the house all day" rather than the
more accepted reason of his stepping
out with someone else.
A dog about the house is fine—but
a man, no! At least not all day long
and especially in the kitchen!
Remote Control Over Lawn
(Ottawa Journal)
Somebody now has invented a
lawn mower that need not be pushed
or guided or even ridden. It is man-
ipulated by a push-button at the end
of an electric cord, and the operator
can sit at his ease on the back porch
or at an open window, send the
mechanical device hither and thither
where the grass is long, make it back
up and go forward and turn corners,
and in fact do all the things the
householder used to do by the power
of his muscles.
This is all very fine, but it doesn't
, go far enough. There are still chores
the man of the house so far has not
been able to escape even in this age
of mechanical marvels. For example,
can this grass -cutting machine be
taught to shovel snow or wash the
car or take the dog for a walk? Will
it dig the garden or put on the storm
windows? Can it trim Junior's hair
or wash the dishes or hang out the
washing?
A lawn mower that can be aimed
by a push-button at an offending
patch of grass does meet a crying
need, but let the inventors go on
from there. Other fields of human
endeavor remain to be taken.

Save Pennies in Small Town, Too
Every once in a while a friend
makes us see red when he accuses
local stores of charging higher
prices—much higher prices --.-than
city retailers. He usually makes
it as a matter-of-fact, generalized
statement which includes all busi-
nesses and services. It's rubbish
—and smelly rubbish—as lar as
we are concerned:- And we can
cite many examples to prove it.
Certainly, we're prepared to ad-
mit to our complaining friend in
certain cases, it may be true that
the priceis lower in the bigger
centres. But before we'll admit
it, he'll have to admit to us that
there are just as many occasions
when the soling is in the smaller

Brainy "Squares" get Frowns

who will be tomorrow's employ-
ers. The kids who were so afraid
of being different they never both-

world entirely, where ambition,
hard work, brains and originality
start paying off. Mediocrity is a
mighty poor goal, indeed.—Clinton

Praise Safety -Wise Huron Pupils
The school children of Huron
County have an excellent safety
record, according to Provincial
Constable Al Hardy, a man who
should know. Since March, Con-
stable Hardy, a member of Gode-
rich detachment, has delivered
safety lectures to well over 5;000
pupils in all parts of the county.
'We are very fortunate in Huron,'
he says. "The children have an
enviable record. The accident rate
is low." The safety lectures are
sponsored by the Ontario Provin-
cial Police and are carried out
with the co-operation of the 'On-
tario Safety League, which sup-
-piles films. "It is planned to re=,
sume the lectures on a more in-
tense scale in the fall," says Con-
stanle Hardy. The possibility of

Centennial Sparks Fond Memories
Brilliant sunshine, gay holiday
crowds, military bands and a
sparkling array of floats set ,the
seal on Turnberry Township's week
end of rejoicing on Monday when
the township's centennial parade
turned Wingham's main street in-
to an avenue of color and gaiety
An estimated crowd of 8,000 lined
the streets to watch the two-hour
long parade of clowns and cars
and decorated wagons follow the
Kitchener 48th Squadron Engin-
eer's Bugle Band along Josephine
Street and into the town park fpr
opening ceremonies. The centen-
nial got off to a fine start on Sat-
urday when ever school in the
township put out the welcome mat
to past pupils and friends from
many parts of Canada and the
United States. At every school,
against a background of black-
boards, chalk and fading photo-
graphs, groups of people could be
seen laughing, talking and reviv-
ing memories of the days gone by,
and Turnberry Township people,
like nine-year-old Tommy Powell
and 94 -year-old Mrs, Arthur Shaw,
were united in a friendliness that
bridged the years and brightened
the schoolhouses more vividly than
all the flags and banners could do.

of Myth, the almost unanimous
choice from the eight provincial
directors eligible. Mr. Wallace is
also president of the 1200 -member
Ontario Turkey Association, hav-

convention at the OTA at Hamil-
ton last January. Retiring presi-
dent of the Canadian Turkey Fed-
eration is Murray L. Smith, of
Aylmer, Ont., who occupied the
post for three seasons. The next
annual meeting of the Federation
will take place at Ottawa in Feb-

red in many sections of the pro-
vince, We have had several re,
ports from farmers who have lo
cated armyworm, but indications
•are that, they have not started to
move and consequently little dam-
age has been done to date. As
long as we have sufficient rainfall
and ''vigorous plant growth, the
arymworm will likely remain
quiet. HowevO., if the weather
turns dry an armyworm march
and consequent destruction is al-
most certain to occur. Under these
circumstances farmers would be
well advised to keep a very close
watch on all grain fields, and to
be prepared to- attack the army -
worm when it strikes. Several
chemicals may be used effectively
to control the armyworm, either
as a poison bait, a spray or dust.
Where sufficient manpower is
available, the poison bait method
is the least expensive' and very
little grain would be damaged
while spreading the bait in the
field. In order to spray the field,
of course a tractor must be driVen
through the grain, but the dam-
age caused by the tractor is very
slight in comparison to the dam-
age which can be done by army -
worm. The most common spray
used is Aldrin 20% Emulsion at
the rate of one-half gallon of pois-
on in 30 gallons of water per acre.
The most common signs of army
worm on oats are eaten leaves
and grain on the ground. In barley
the armyworm will eat the leaves
and the awns and May remove the
barley head. The worm itself is
green in color, usually about 11/2
inches in length and will be found
under clods of earth, in cracks in
the soil or under- any protection
during daytime. They may be
found on the leaves and stems of
the plants during the evening and/
at night.
Further information concerning
the armyworm outbreak will be
carried on the farm shows, and, I
understand that supplies of suit-
able chemicals will be available
should a more serious outbreak
occur.

MILKWEED CONTROL
It's in late August and Septem-
ber that milkweed pods open and
release their seeds, each of which
is equipped with a tuft of silky
down to enable it to float on the
fall breezes and start a new plant
in a new location. In order to pre-
vent that from happening next fall,
the time to do something about it
is now, says the Field Crops
Branch of the Ontario Department
of Agriculture.
While milkweed has been listed
as being resistant to 2,4-D, many
road, superintendents have obtain-
ed good results; that is, have pre-
vented pods and seed forming, by
spraying with a low volatile ester
of 2,4-D, or with a brush killer
combination of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T.
On the other hand, very poor re-
sults have been obtained using -the
same herbicides at the same rates
of application. The difference has
always been that in the successful
treatments the spraying was done.
early in June. In the unsuccessful
cases, spraying was done sometime
in July. Another secret of success
in keeping roadsid4s clean is an-
nual spraying over a period of
several years.
The best known chemical control
for Milkweed is the'.2,4-D--2,4,5-T
(brush killer) mixture, at the rate
of 16 ounces of acid per acre,
sprayed in late spring, This treat-
ment may need to be repeated for
two or three years, In rough pas-
tures this should eliminate most
of the troublesome pasture weeds.
It should not, of course, be used on
pastures containing a high' per-
centage of the better clovers.
Unfortunately, milkweed also in-
vades crop lend. Spraying ,is not
the answer here because grass is
the only crop eapable of surviving
the amount of herbicide necessary
to control milkweed. In grain
crops which may be infected with
milkweed, the use of an early ma-
turing variety, one that can be
ha,rvested early in August, is re-
comniended. In this way the milk-
weed is cut before it can matttre
seed, if this is followed with 01 -

the roots, , the milkweed Prefilein

I do it on a week day, Perhaps;
we are old-fashioned up in the
neighborhood where I live. We're
no saints, but there is' nobody in
our neighborhood who works in

It seems more restful and semi -

And that is what Sundays are
for: to refresh the spirit. Many
people go to, church for this. In

'tural Prices Support Board has
been authorized to provide a sup --
port price for fowl produced in
Canada. The support is on the.
basis of a price equivalent to 23
cents per pound live weight at To-
ronto for top grade fowl -five'
pounds and over, marketed for
slaughter from August 1 to No-
vember 30, 1957, with appropriate
-
differentials for other weights and
Principal markets throughout Can-
ada.
The Minister stated he hoped by
introducing this additional support.
for the poultry industry that a
measure of stability would be pro-
vided in the main marketing sea-
son for fowl. He indicated that
this price was slightly above re-
cent market prices.
First Hunter: "I can kill a deer
when it's 300 yards away."
Second Hunter: "Well, I can
kill a deer when it's 400 yards
away."
Third Hunter: "Why, that's
nothing. One day when I was out,
these old telescope eyes spotted a
buck. I rammed a charge down
the barrel of my muzzleloader,
then some wadding and a couple of
ounces of salt. Then I let 'er fly
and that old buck dropped dead.'
First Hunter: "That's very in-
teresting, but why did you put
salt in your gun?' '
Third Hunter: "Oh, I had to.
That deer was so far off, I had to
do something to keep the meat
from spoiling before I could get
there!"
