A new apprpaeh to,c,Olninunity Minor Sports'Organizatibetv. as dis- cussed by representatives of fif- teen Western Ontario communities at the Lake Huron Zone Recrea- tion Council's Conference in Wal- kerton Saturday. To assure more opportunities for participation on a cemmunity lev- el, these communities agreed that in the 1957-58 season, all minor hockey would be conducted on a community basis with inter -com- munity play only on the play-off level. In addition to providing a greater opportunity for participa- tion, this would 'Unlit the amount of expenses in minor sports devel- opment. The local community organiza- tion and the zone organization nec- essary to develop this type of pro- gram` will be discussed at a meet- ing to be held in the council cham- bers in the Town Hall in Wingham at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 9, and those interested from each community in Western Ontario have been invited to attend. Seaforth Council, at a special meeting Friday 'evening, after -ex-, amining nearly fifty applications, appointed a chief of police and a police constable. The appointments become effective Sanuary 1 next, when the arrangement with the Ontario Provincial Police terrain- ates. • Named as chief of police was Edward Ehrhardt, at a salary of $3,600 per aninim. Chief Ehrhardt is 36. He is married with four chil- dren. A veteran of World War II, he began his police career in Water- loo Township in 1949. Ia 1953 he served in Hespeler; in /954 on the Toronto Township force at Cooksville, and in 1956 in Paris. He is now Chief at Shelburne. Council appointed George A. Maftin, 30, of Strathroy, as con- stable. Married, he has three Oil, dren. He will receive. $2,800 per annum. A veteran of the Korean War, he has had no police experience, but his father has been on the Ontario Provincial Police fat 30 years. Both men were highly recommend- ed according to -members of coun- cil. Decision to dispense with the OPP was taken by council tWo months ago when the town was advised by the OPP that if the existing contract was to be con- tinued, it would be necessary to provide for a third constable. For some months previously council had been critical of the extent to which the costs of the OPP service and overtime claiW ed had been increasing. Faced with the demand for an additional man, it was considered the cost to the town under such circumstances would be prohibitive.

Mr. J. Carl Hemingway, of --the Huron County Federation of Agri- culture, Clinton, showed a film en- titled, "The Inside Story," which 'Stowed how TB germs are spread, the various tests and how the dis- ease is, treated. The motto, "Be too large for wor- ry, too sensible for anger, too strong for fear and too happy to think about trouble," was very ably given by Mrs. Wm. Hum- phries. Mrs. Humphries began by saying, "How often are each of us a victim of the four demons of our every -day life, namely: anger, worry, fear and trouble. Let us consider each of these briefly. What is anger? According to the dictionary, anger is an excessive emotion or passion aroused by a sense of injury or wrong. It may be caused by our feelings being hurt, by resentment of others, or being enraged at something or someone. Can we control this temper? Once we have self-con- trol we can stop and think how senseless anger is, and how easy it is to be avoided. Count to ten, or rise your own private technique, but be too sensible for anger. What is worry? According to one writer, worry is anxiety, per- plexity or harassing trouble. Ev- eryone oft us worry at some time or other. How much useful time is spent in worrying when we could be putting that time into making ourselves useful. An an- swer to our worries is always in front of us and we have just to reach out for it if we are big en- ough. Be too large for worry, and smile. The third demon is fear. Fear is another emotion caused by the thought of apprehension of danger. We have learned to overcome a great many fears with the help of our mother and by our, own will power.„ Why should we fear when we have a higher power, who says, "Fear .not." Be too strong for fear. Last of all, be too happy to think about trouble. Ours look pretty small compared to poor un- fortunate people in hospitals and on our streets. When our trou- bles seem to be at the peak, smile instead of complaining. As one old writer wrote: "Smile and the world laughs with you; weep, and you grotich,.aleme." Let eadli of us be too happy to think about trOablio • To Suthulti • 41 words, I think that if each of us would live up to the Mary Stew- art Collect we would certainly be too large for worry, too sensible for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to think about trouble. A sing -song was enjoyed, after which an apron was auctioned which had been donated by the president, Mrs. M. Humphries, and a fancy handkerchief donated by Mrs. Ed Dougan. Mrs. W.

Grades 7, 8 an will be published soon, and these will complete the series. Art Aims Change • Dr. Gallskell stressed education through art, rather than methods of teaching art. Colored slides lustrated the development of the child's thought processes; how he paints his impression of what he sees; how he chooses seemingly Unsuitable color because he paints with the colors he likes best. The child must be encouraged to make large pictures, as his small muc- cles are not yet developed, and he is still working with large move- ments. A brief review of the art les- sons of 40 years ago revealed en- tirely different aims in the teach- ing of art: coloring hectographed copies which kept the children quiet, but gave no opportunity for freedom of expression; reproduc- ing nearly exact copies of the teacher's model which might be scientifically correct, but which bore no relationship to its natural environment Self-expression on the part of the child should at all times be guided, but not wiped out by the dictatorial methods of past de- cades. In the evening a banquet was held in Northside United Church, given by the OMEA of Huron County, when Dr. Fenwick was guest speaker. Dr. Fenwick Speaks In his talk, Dr. Fenwick struck an optimistic note. He said that music in Ontario schools had reached a standard second to none on the continent. He had travel- led to the East and West in Can - ad e and also in the United States, and fotind one better. He also mentioned English adjudicators in festival work who were loud in their praise of music in Ontario. boa ladAttinped from 600:090-1.4' Sin over a million. That in itself music in 1935, the school pre- sentedpopuld- a gigantic task in educa- tion,ce be became director of The topic of his talk was "Broadening the Music Program." Music is fourfold, he said, social, recreation, education, is an ,art. Children must sing for fun, and to participate must learn sight singing so that they will be able to carry on with music that in- terest them when they leave school. Music we hear is either of passing interest or lasting in- terest. We need to learn to choose that of lasting interest, he said. Chairman for the program was public school inspector, Gien Gard- iner, of Goderich. The program included: Grace by Northside Minister, Rev. Bruce Hall; a sing -song led by R.Klinck, of Goderich, with Mrs. Elaine MacDowell, of Belgrave, accom- panying. Dr. Fenwick was intro- duced by Inspector J. H.
