BLYTH, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, AUG, 31, 1900
TO OUR LOCAL MERCHANTS .
SEEK SHOPPERS DOLLARS
Quite often the complaint is heard from local merchants that home
town shoppers spend much of their money in neighbouring centres and,
in Monte cases, a considerable distance away in the city.
We would venture to say that dames such cases hinge on neglect of
the buying bublic by the local merchant. Many of the latter open their
doors and expect shoppers to come in, without invitation and without
any special inducement or information of services and items available.
The customer, after all, likes to be an invited guest and he or she likes
also to be informed of specific specials and goods available.
The merchant who ignores his potential customers has little justi-
fied complaint when the shopper buys goods which are advertised - and
in many cases it is the out-of-town merchant who seeks out these shop-
pers by various means of advertising.
Ken Nicholson, writing In the Stayner Sun several weeks ago had
an item on this matter. Because it applies equally to centres like
Blyth we pass it along for what it is worth,
"Somebody out there" surely loves Stayncr shoppers, judging from
the influx of direct mail and advertising flyers from out-of-town stores.
It is a rare day indeed which passes without a potential local buyel
receiving a printed exhortation to spend his shopping dollar beyond
his own bailiwick.
It is unfortunate for the comhnnity, of course, when money that
would eventually help to support Stayncr business expansion, wage
earners and the municipal lax fund, is left in the coffers of distant
towns. But the buyer is not always to blame.
Of late we have been looking with jaundiced eye through the adver-
tising columns of this paper, and it is an inescapable fact that many
local places of business are negligent, or downright unconcerned, about
wooing Stayncr people to shop in Stayner. If the outside merchants
think that the local buying dollar is attractive enough to crawl right
into his mailbox and stalk it, then perhaps it is high time the hometown
boys did a little crawling and stalking of their own.
When local buyers are left in the dark about local goods, services
and prices .. , then local merchants have no cause for complaint when
somebody cones to town with a light,"

Wishing hits good luck in this new

Department of Industry members,
Mr, Wilford admitied he was more
partial to storing farm products, in
which, he said, he had considerable
experience in the past, especially ruta-
bagas.
He saki that if farm products are
not adequately processed all industries
stiffer.
He said he will also foster expe•imen-
itation of new ideas in his warehouse
Iby providing space for this purpose.
"New ideas need to be developed, es-
pecially ones concerning agricultural
products," he added.
In his warehouse, which provides
38,000 square feet of space, will be a
skeleton staff of some six men,
Apparently a need exists for ware-
housing space because products from
one industry already occupies much of
the space.
There is also a large cool room on
the ground floor, for the possible stor-
ing of fruits and vegetables.

awl let machines help out as
learning aid;, the educator said.
'fang surveys have concluded
tl:at the current teacher short-
age is due to a lack cf effective
utilization of teaching talent
within the high schools then -
;elves where teachers reported-
ly spend one-third of their time
p.,rforming clerical tasks or su-
p: rvising student activities.
Future high schools, the Caii-
f..rnia assemblage was told, must
he <cl up along the general lines
c . a large university with em-
!:ir sis on teaching specialists
c,nd a reduction of the time a
student spends in class to allow
i for more individual research
and directed study,
It has been suggested that stu-
dents should spend forty per
cent of their time in large classes
taught by an experienced pro-
fessional and the remainder of
the day in small discussion
groups led by 'general teachers'
and in individual study super-
vised by 'instructional assist-
ants.'
This combination would take
the burden of unnecessary work
.from trained teachers and there-
by eliminate a duplication of
effort and waste of teaching tal-
ent that is a basic element to
the teacher shortage.
Too much togetherness in
schools was also cited as a dis-

African Nations Search For Anthems
by Tom A. Cullen
Newspaper Enterprise Assn.
LONDON—From Africa cones
news that should gladden the
hearts of tune -smiths.
Africa's newly - independent
nations desperately need nation-
al anthems; they offer cash
prizes for the best tunes.
Among those recently in search
of national airs are the Congo
Republic, the Mali Federation,
Somaliland and Sierra Leone.
For Tin Pan Alley's benefit,
the anthems need not be long—
nothing like the 158 verses of
the Greek national hymn, for
example. Nor need they be par-
ticularly African.
Tom-tom effects are out in
favor of simple words that stir
up patriotic Sentiments. (No
emergent African nation has yet
to Guinea, hail to you! Be bless-
ed, thou benefactor of Guinea,
apostle of the good cause, infant
prodigy!"
Nigeria solved the problem'by
offering $2,800 for the catchiest
tune and throwing the contest
open to comers from all nations.
The winner was Mrs. Charles
Kermot, a London piano teacher,
"Nigeria, we hail thee" will
swell from the throats of 35 mil-
lion Nigerians after independ-
ence day, October 1.
Mrs. Kermot claims that it
took her only ten minutes to
compose the winning tune, She
denies that is sounds like the
boating song of a well-known
girls' boarding school.
The fact that their national
anthem was written by a Briton
has incurred the ire of Nigerian
seen fit to follow the examples
of Afghanistan, the Vatican and
the United Arab Republic whose
anthems are wordless.)
Speed also is essential. Inde-
pendence cannot wait for poetic
inspiration,
The national anthems adopted
by Ghana and Nigeria are un-
likely to make anyone's hit pa-
rade, They are either jingoistic
or tend to extoll the nation's
agriculture and its meteorology.
Ghana is called a "bright star
shining in the sky."
The Republic of Guinea, (for-
merly French Guinea), on the
other hand, goes in for revolu-
tionery songs praising Sekou
'Court, its Marxist -trained pre-
mier. Sample:
"Schou TOUrr, 0 gift divine
students,
cott the tune.
"No self-respecting nation per-
mits foreigners to compose its
national anthem," writes a pro-
fessor from the University Col-
lege at lbadan, Nigeria. "It will
make us the laughing stock of
the African world."
Ghana offered an $8,400 prize
for its national anthem, but
restricted the contest to Ghanian
nationals. Winner was Philip
Gbeho, a member of the musical-
ly -minded Ewe tribe, whose stir-
ring entry begins, "Lilt high the
flag of Ghana."
"Ghanians are like the Brit-
ish," a student from Accra said.
"As soon AS the national anthem
is played, tvtryone bolts for the
door."

We have rural mail delivery in

cheques. So I looked up the

switch from one person to an-
other I eventually got through to
the right oNicial. He looked up
the records and found the
cheques had been mailed at the
proper time. He suggested con-
tacting our post office again and
if the cheques did not show up
with a day or two to notify the
Department in writing. This we
did and got word back that the
cheques had not been presented
for payment by any unauthoriz.
ed person, therefore the bank
had been notified to stop pay-
ment. In due time duplicate
cheques would be sent to us --
that is, in about six weeks! In
all, that means a two month's
delay before we get our money.
It could be quite inconvenient.
The big question is — where
did the first cheques go? The
post °Nice suggests they might
have gone to an entirely differ-
ent town or village bearing a
similar name. I know it can
happen. When our address was
"Milton" quite frequently mail
was sent 'to "Wilton" — some-
times because it was addressed
that way. Now our address is
"Erindale" we cone up against
Erin, Evansville, Erinsville and
Elmvale. Sometimes it is the
result of a typist's error. We
have yet to get mail correctly
addressed from one insurance
company with whom we deal:
Anyway, if you get cheques or
important documents lost in the
mail, contact the office • from
which they were sent. The mat-
ter will eventually get straight-
ened out, In the old days, accord-
ing to a time-honoured saying,
"the mail always gets th>;ough".
But these are not the old days.
There are now more people,
more places, more time -saving
machinery — and more nail.
Fut it is questionable whether
there is more efficiency.
We experienced another little
inconvenience last week. It was
good drying weather so 1 un-

ing — blankets and so on. May-
be you can guess what happen-

our washing machine gave up

it would go for a few minutes,

repair man said the trouble was
in the drainage pump. By acci-
dent, it was half turned on, al-

lint to collect and plugged the

How About A House
Built OF Ice ?
The pot sihility of using ice foe
large -scala building projects
being invc.+ligated by the Masser•
chu.setts Institute of 'Technology,
whose chief researcher, Dr. 1V.
David Kinge',y, foresees a great.
future for ice•buiit dwellings.
What is now the most plenti-
ful and so far least useful sub-
stance on earth may soon be
valued very differently, he says.
To hien, ice is a metal, one which
melts at about 32 degrees Fah-
renheit.
As a metal, in its natural state,
it breaks under a pressure of
merely 300 lbs, per square inch.
But the professor and his te:uu
have found methods of remedy-
ing that weakness.
Their experiments prove that
ice can he turned into a metal
alloy by adding quantities of
glass-type fibres. This binds the
ice, and ice metal, so made,
reaches a tensile strength of
3,000 lbs. a square inch. That
give a durable alloy, a piece of
which, merely a quarter -inch
thick, can support the weight of
a 200 pound ratan.

They Always Fire
The Wrong Man
The statistics quoted in this
column were substantially cor-
rect •a few hours ago, But the
way the managerial ball has
been bouncing this season in the
major leagues, the figures may
be out of date by the time you
get around to reading thein,
However, on the day that
Jimmy Dykes moved front De-
tyoit to Cleveland and Joe Gor-
don did just the opposite, there
bad been exactly 321 big league
managers since 1901, when the
American League was founded.
This figure included 173 for
the National and 148 for the
American, and broke down to
approximately 20 pilots for each
9f the 16 clubs. It meant that
the average manager had lasted
two -plus seasons, a statistic
which would he considerably
lower, of course, if men like
Connie Mack (50 year:;) and
John McGraw (31 years) had
not stayed around for sr) long.
In the most recent five cam-
paigns, including this one, there
had been 29 changes in field
leaders, with about two and a
half months of 1060 remaining.
Today's manager is much less
secure in his job than his older
brother and there is a reason --
the general manager.
Back in the days when Clark
Griffith, Connie Mack, Frank
Navin, Phil Ball and their kind
ran ball clubs in the majors, the
general manager was unknown.
and unnecessary.
One man often owned and ran
his club, having only a field
leader to direct personnel and to
confer with, on player trades and
purchases.
There were no farm systems to
oversee, no wide open, liigh-
priced bonus market. Scouting
staffs were limited and, in some
cases, nonexistent, writes Rumill
in the Christian Science Monitor.
'!'here were no lucrative radio
and television contracts to con-
sider. Front office competition
was at a minimum. The club
owner could handle most of it
himself.
But the game progressed and
grew into a multimillion -dollar
business, as the farm system be-
came established, and as groups
replaced the one -owner plan, the
general manager not only be-
came essential, he became recog-
nized as the most important ex-
ecutive in the organization.
He was given the authority
to pick and fire the manager, to
have final say on all player
deals. The owner or owners
guickly faded into the back-
round.
Hut in the wake ot recent de-
velopments on the major scene,
one wonder's it the general man-
ager is getting out ot hand?
Are the owners firing the
wrong men?
Even a bleacherite is aware
that it is much simpler to re-
place the manager of a losing
ball club than a bulk of the 25
players on the roster.
But when a team is losing, is
sputtering aimlessly in the sec-
ond division, all seem to lose
sight of the fact that a manager
Is only as good as his players —
players, of course, who were
given him by the general man-
ager.
Consequently, if these players
fail to produce the winning pat-
tern, how can the manager be
more to blame than the general
manager?
Yet, managers come and go,
while the general manager seems
to go on forever.
No one can be closer to the
situation than the man on the
ticld and many managers will
frankly whisper that today's
general manager has far too
much power and too often sticks
his eager fingers in the manage-
rial pie.
In most cases, ball clubs might
be more successful if they gave
the. game back to the manager.

Mystery Of The
Lost Settlers
Hammond, a dealer in all
sorts of merchandise, was look-
ing for hickory nuts in North
Carolina when he discovered
something infinitely more excit-
ing.
1t was a stone, worn with age
and encrusted with moss. Just
decipherable was an inscription
that seemed to solve a mystery
which had puzzled men for near-
ly three and a half centuries,
The lettering was in Elizabeth-
an English, and it gave the names
of Ananias and Virginia Dare,
who went "Unto (leaven" in
1591, It also revealed how the
Dare family and other English
colonists had suffered hardships
and sickness, and how many had
died — by the tomahawks of
savage Indians.
Not an unusual tragedy in
those days, of course. Many col-
onists met their deaths violently
in a strange and hostile land,
Why, then, was Hammond's find
-- if genuine -- so highly im-
portant?
Because it threw light on the
fate of a party of English set-
ters who, after being put ashore,
were never seen again. Several
attempts were made to trace
them but not one clue was found,
'!'hey had disappeared in the
brooding forests and lonely
plains.
Those English colonists, eighty-
nine men, seventeen women and
eleven children, were put ashore
on Roanoke Island, oPf what is
now North Carolina, in 1587 by
Governor John White. Thera
they were left to their own de-
vices, and it was three years
j?afore White returned,
ft was not his fault, but his
ship was needed to fight the
Spanish Armada. Indeed, he had
a personal reason for making
sure that the settlers came to
no harm, for among them was
his married daughter, Eleanor
Dare, and she had given birth
to a daughter while her father
was still on the island, That
baby has a particular niche in
North American history. She
was the first English child to be
born in the New World. Proudly,
her parents named her Virginia
— a compliment to Elizabeth the
Virgin Queen,
When Governor White arrived
at Roanoke in 1590 the colonists
had gone, He knew their inten-
tion was to transfer to the 'main-
land in due course, so he sailed
in that direction,
But violent storms thwarted
him, Blown off his course, White
never set foot on the mainland.
And itwas not for another
twelve years or more that any-
body became interested in the
Dare party.
Then it was too late. Stories
were told of white folk who had
penetrated farther south, of
strangers from the sea who had
been massacred by the toma-
hawks of savage Indians. But
that was all,
Later — much later — further
queer tales emerged, In 1669 a
German explorer claimed to have
seen a tribe of bearded Indians
in North Carolina, and nearly a
hundred and twenty years after
that it was said that a large
number of Indians bore the same
names as those of the long -lost
colonists, and that their native
language was interspersed with
Elizabethan words. No real con-
tact with these people was ever
made.
And so the matter rested un-
til Hammond's alleged discovery
in 1937,
That certainly set the ball roll-
ing. He took the stone to Emery
College,- Georgia, where it was
examined by Professor Haywood
Pearce, an expert in such mat-
ters. The professor was deeply
interested. He thought the stone
may have marked the grave of
Ananias and Virginia Dare —
Ananias being Virginia's baby
brother, Pearce decided to in-
vestigate further believing that
if one stone existed there might
be others.
IIe. offered a rt:ward to any-
body discovering similar stones,
For some eighteen months note -
Ing hepjencd. Then thin.!.; 1;;;jan

Eberhart produced another stone
which seemed to prove the truth
of Pearce's theory. This record-
ed the names of seventeen peo-
ple in the Dare party who had
been killed by Indians. It also
bore a date — 1589 — two years
earlier than the one given on
the first stone,
Exciting enough, but it was
only the beginning. Within a
matter of clays Eberhart brought
three more stones. They were all
dated 1591, and their inscriptions
referred to the same colonists,
But there was a snag, Eberhart
said that he had found all four
stones three hundred miles from
where I-Iammond asserted he had
made the original discovery,
Professor Pearce was sus-
picious, Yet all the stones were
inscribed in Elizabethan English,
and what would Eberhart, an
uneducated man, know about
that? Ile couldn't have faked
them.
Later, Eberhart brought along
forty-two similar stones, making
forty-six in all, From the inscrip-
tions on these it was possible to
piece together al least part of
the story of what happened to
those lost colonists, It was all
very exciting — especially as
many more stones kept turning
up. There seemed to be a glut
of such relics,
Professor Pearce decided to
call in the historians and the
archaeologists. In 1940 a number
of these examined the stones.
They believed them to be genu-
ine — but wouldn't commit
themselves without further stu-
dy and more detailed examina-
tion.
Then Boyden Sparkes, a news-
paperman, arrived on the scene,
He was sceptical about matters
which lacked cast-iron proof and
parried out a few investigations
on his own.
Sparkes made several signifi-
cant discoveries. He found that
the men who found the stones
were all friends, and that their
characters were not exactly un-
tarnished, One, in fact, was in
jail, True, this didn't disprove
not prove anything, but to
Sparkes' alert mind it was sus-
picious.
His doubts increased when he
tracked down an old fellow of
ninety who had lived all his
days in the district where the
stones were supposed to have
been found, "Never saw any-
Ihing like 'em," asserted the
nonagenarian stoutly. "They just
wasn't there!"
To cap it all Sparkes also
found that Eberhart made a liv-
ing by trading in Indian relics.
To Sparkes, the evidence was
now conclusive. The so-called
Dare Stones w e r e a gigantic
hoax.
Further investigation confirm -
his opinion. Those stones had
been inscribed in the English
used by the Elizabethans. But
there were certain anomalies.
They were in Roman script and
although this had been intro-
duced by then it was used only
by scholars. Another point:
spelling, as we know it, was
unknown in those days, People
wrote a word as they pleased.
Yet in the inscriptions there
was no variation in the spelling
Of the same words,
Even more damning, some of
the words inscribed were not
even in existence when the
stones were alleged to have
been carved, "Yes," Sparkes
thought, "the Dare Stones are
undoubtedly a hoax, and an ex-
ceptionally clever one."
This is now generally accept-
ed, but who carved them? Al-
though he slipped up in one er
two respects he must have been
a highly educated Ivan, Which
dismisses Hammond. He was
certainly no .outstanding schol-
ar with a working knowledge
of Elizabethan English. Eber-
hart and the others were barely
literate.
Obviously somebody in the
background, a "moister mind,"
formulated the plan and ar-
ranged all the details. But with
%vhat object? This is mother

Is the Yet i er Abominable
Snowman, the hairy, man -like
mystery creature whose foot-

layan climbers, a survival of a
giant prehistoric ape species of
L'hinese origin?
This question springs from a
novel series of experiments,
,lust. made by Mr. Wladimir
Tschernezky, a technical assist-
ant at Queen Mary College,
London. Very cleverly and ac-
curately, he has constructed a
plaster cast from photographs of
the Yeti's footprints,
These pitcures were taken by
Mr. Eric Shipton, when climb-
ing Everest's upper reaches in
1955 on his famous reconnais-
sance expedition, They confirm-
ed, too, pictures he'd taken ear-
lier of Yeti tracks, when scaling
the Guauri Sankar range of
Everest in 1951. The cast, thus
constructed,. gives a foot mea-
suring twelve inches 1 o n g,
seven -and -a -half inches across
the sole, and six - and -a-half
inches across the heel,
Mr, Tschernezky has compar-
ed it with prints made by the
Himalayan black bear and the
langur, a long-tailed Asiatic
monkey. Some scientists say
that the langur may be the
"Abominable S no w m a n." Its
black, bare face, shaggy brown
hair, and almost human cry of
fear fit the "half man, half
beast" description given by eye-
witnesses to Eric Shipton.
But Mr. Tschernezky says
there is no real comparison, His
Yet i foot has a conspicuously
thick big toe, resembling that of
present-day mountain gorillas.
This toe has a distinctive grasp-
ing axis, adapted for tree climb-
ing, and the smaller three toes
are webbed at their base.
Reporting his discoveries in
the scientific journal, "Nature,"
Mr. Tschernezky suggests that a
creature resembling the prehis-
toric gigantopithecus (giant ape)
still haunts the Himalayas, This
creature, reconstructed from fos-
sil finds, was a giant Chinese
ape thought to have become ex-
tinct about half a million years
ago,
Chinese traffickers in magic
often sold the ape's huge molars
as dragon's teeth, Some Oriental
chemists ground up these finds,
and produced powders which
they' sold as cure-alls and pick-
me-ups.

Modern Beauty
Is Big Business
1 saw her often on the streets
of Paris. She was tall; she was
young; she was blond. 1 -ler hair
was piled up, beehive style. She
had long, sideswept bangs. And
no expression. Usually she wore
a suit with box jacket, tight,
knee-length skirt, or perhaps a
shecth dress.
It was some time before 1 dis-
covered it wasn't the same girl
sill the time, but many different
girls. What made then look so
ali!ie?
It was the expression, I de-
cided, Or the lack of it. But
where had I seen "that girl" be-
fore? Then 1 remembered. She
was a fashion -magazine cover
girl. Sleek, smart, and dead -pan.
Beautiful, of course, with every
muscle in her face under com-
plete control.
Later 1 saw her counterpart in
Italy. Not just in the big cities,
but even in small inland towns.
The hairdo was the same, skirt3
abbreviated. Obviously fashion
magazines have a wide circula-
tion. And then, too, there's tele-
vision.
The fashion model today ap-
pears to have even more influ-
ence on the teenage -and -up
crowd than movie stars. Indeed,
the influence of the movie star as
't a model to be copied has waned
considerably in recent years.
All of which means that the
beauty business today is big
business, it is a well -organized
business, and it a business cater-
ing to the teen-ager, the young
married woman, the woman with
small means as well as the wo-
man of wealth.
In other words, to be smart
and stylish, or at least to achieve
that effect, is not necessarily ex-
pensive. The beauty business
caters to all classes.
Some of the big drugstore
chains have beauty consultants
these days at the cosmetics coun-
ter. Supermarkets carry cos-
metics. And if the working girl
wants to learn about proper
make-up and good taste in dress,
all she has to do is go to the
nearest YWCA where courses
are usually available at reason-
able fees.
With the increasing popularity
of the model as an ideal to pat-
tern, charm schools have boom-
ed. There young women learn
how to dress, how to walk, how
to behave at social functions.
You may credit Dale Carnegie
as having organized the original
"charm" school, but he has a lot
of competition today!
As for beauty salons, the
country is salted and peppered
with then. No shopping center
worthy of the name would think
of going into business without
its beauty shop,
In Paris I was told, when hesi-
tating to patronize a small beau-
ty salon near my hotel: "In Paris
you can't go wrong on a beauty
shop any more than you can go
wrong on a restaurant." They
were so right.
Beauty shops do a billion -
dollar -plus business a year in the
United States. They have been
springing up like daisies all over
the country until today there are
estimated to be more than 110,-
000 from coast to coast.
There are few women, of any
age in these times, who don't
have their hair "done." Most of
them wear it short — a vogue
atartecl by dancer Irene Castle
some 45 years ago.
Along with increasing a tten-
tion to hair -styling has come an

increasing attention to make-up.
host women would no more
think of venturing out without
' cosmetics than they would of
starting the day without comb-
ing their hair.
There was a time when practi-
cally the only women who used
make-up were actresses. Today
any woman who doesn't use cos-
metics is conspicuous. Not only
that, but women have learned
how to use them tastefully,
writes Josephine Ripley in the
Christian Science Monitor.
In an article on the "beauty
business," Editorial Research Re-
ports puts it this way: "The Miss
America who won the first an-
nual beauty contest at Atlantic
City in 1921 was a dimple -faced
blonde whose curly hair and de-
mure features showed little evi-
dence of any use of artifice to
enhance her natural prettiness.
"The Miss America to be chos-
en in September, 1960, is likely
to be a streamlined beauty with
deftly arched eyebrows, tinted
eyelids, enameled fingernails,
and lips of the currently fashion-
able pale hue. Her face no doubt
will have been treated with nu-
merous creams and make-up
bases before application of the
final layers of coloring, and her
hair will have been profession-
ally 'styled' before she faces the
judges."
The article goes on to point
out that this contrast is paralleled
among American women in gen-
eral, "It is within this period (of
40 years) that the cult of beauty
has overtaken virtually the en-
tire female population of the
United States."
In fact, it is said that franchise
and the lipstick came to Ameri-
can women at about the same
time — both symbolizing the
freeing of women from tradi-
tional restraints.
The use of beauty aids goes
back many centuries. Women —
and even nen — have always
used creams, powders, paint, and
wigs to improve their appear-
ance.
"Archeologists have unearthed
beauty aids used by the Queens
— and Kings — of Babylonia
5,000 years ago," says the Editor-
ial Research Reports. Wonder
what charm school they attend-
ed?
This year's crop of apples
should be particularly delicious.
When they become available in
your community, remember this
good and unusual way of using
them. It's especially recommend-
ed as an appealing lunch for chil-
dren. Place thin slices of apple
on a buttered slice of bread.
Cover with a slice of sharp
cheese. Broil until the cheese is
bubbly.
The reason worry kills mote
people than work is that more
people worry than work,
MAKING PROGRESS BACKWARD — A 1961 automotive styling
departure harkens back to the "classic" period in American
motordom. Clare E. Briggs, Chrysler official, leans on a 1931

headlamps with the modern dual version at left which will be

Grapes are not only decorative
for fruit plates, but give a pleas-
ingly cool flavour to many
dishes, If you've seen frosted
grapes and would like to dupli-
cate them, it's simple: wash and
ciry the grapes then cut into
small clusters and brush each
with slightly beaten egg white.
Hold over waxed paper and
sprinkle with fine, granulated
sugar. Depending on your use
of the grapes, you may wish to
vary the flavour by adding to,
the sugar a pinch of cinnamon
or some other sweet spice.
For supper meals, don't forget
That French toast sandwich com-
binations provide a fine way to
use small amounts of leftover
meat or fowl, Fry bread slices
in the usual egg and milk com-
bination for French toast and
immediately place small slices
of pieces of leftover meat or
fowl between each two slices.
Pour over the top warm, left-
over gravy and serve at once.
This type of sandwich makes a
substantial meal, especially if
you add a vegetable.

There is one school of thought
about the tossed salad that holds
it cannot be correctly made ex-
cept in a large wooden bowl,
This bowl, to begin with, must
be rubbed with a clove of garlic
that has been cut in half. The
next step is one that comes up
for argument. Some experts say
that now the bowl must be fill-
ed with several kinds of greens,
broken, not cut, into bite -size
pieces, or larger—never smaller.
These greens must offer a vari-
ety of taste and shades of green.
Then the dressing is added.
Other experts say that, after the
garlic -rubbing ceremony is over,
the dressing must be made in
the wooden bowl before the
greens are added,
* ¢
The woman I know who
makes the best tossed salad I
ever ate belongs to this latter
group. After the bowl is rubbed
with garlic, she places an ice
cube in the bottom. She then
pours in the required amount of
oil and viegar, adds salt and
pepper (she tastes it often) —
then she adds the greens, writes
Eleanor Richey Johnston in the
Christian Science Monitor.
. A tossed salad means just
what the name implies, You do
not stir the greens and salad
dressing together — you toss
and toss lightly until every leaf
and portion is lightly coated.
Then, and not until then, is the
tossed green salad ready to
serve.
The dressing is, of course, im-
portant to any salad — in fact,
it is one of• the most important
things about a salad. Ingredients
should be fresh and freshly sha-
ken together, The basic French
dressing consists of oil, vinegar,
salt, and pepper. Many other in-
gredients are often added —
paprika, tomato sauce, mustard,
onion and spices make this basic
dressing into other types of
dressing. This is so true that,
to get the original French dress-
ing in some restaurants, you
have to ask for an oil and vine-
gar dressing.
4
Just as news items are often
added to the dressing, new in-
gredients are often added to the
green salad; such as cucumbers,
tomatoes, green peppers, celery,
onions, and radishes, They are
especially desirable when the
salad bowl is the entire green
vegetable and salad combined,
to go with the steak or other
meat served,
if you are interested mote in

lar dish for ladies' luncheons —

haps the most popular one all

A chicken salad surrounded
by sweet pickles and tiny sweet
onion rings is always delightful.
Sweet gherkins give this -salad
a tangy flavour and a crisp
texture that make it a cool, satis-
fying dish,

Shot. or Not?
A duel was fought in 'Texas by
John S. Nott and James Shott.
Nott was shot and Shott was not.
In this case it is better to he
Shott than Nott.
There was a rumour that Nott
was not shot, and Shott avows
that he shot Nott, which proves
that either the shot that Shots
shot at Nott was not shot, or that
Nott was shot notwithstanding.
It may be made to appear on
trial that the shot Shott shot shot
Nott, or, as accidents with fire-
arms are frequent, it may be pos-
sible that the shot Shott shot
shot Shott himself, when the
whole affair would resolve into
its original elements, Shots
would be shot and Nott would bs
not.
We think, however, that the
shot Shott shot shot not Shott, but
Nott, Anyway, it is hard to tell
who was shot,

A Hard Way To
Get A Grindstone
"No," said Jimmie Griffin the
rtil day, ''a't'e don't touch a
hand -scythe at all,"
" i hl n 1 don't suppose you'd
want to buy a good grindstone?"
asked my friend, Flats Jackson,
in the tone of voice he likes to
adopt when he assumes a philan-
thropic role, and hopes to stick
home innocent bystander with a
tough trade, Jimmie said he
guessed not.
'flint's too bad," said Flats, "I
got the best grindstone anybody
ever had, and it's legally mine,
and it's available at a young and
tender price,"
"I suppose it's a coarse stone,"
I said.
"No, it's not," said Flats. "It's
coarser than medium, but it don't
draw on the metal, and it's a
quick cutter without being flinty,
If you know what I mean."
"Ifow did you ever come to
own a grindstone legally?"I said.
"I bought it. I bought it from
old man Guppy up above Fair-
banks,"
Nobody said anything, so Flats
added, "The glean Guppy."
Nobody said anything again,
so Flats said, "I suppose this
Guppy was the meanest man
that ever set a foot on the State
of Maine. He had an ingrown
belief that nobody under 15
should ever have any fun at all,
and that over 15 you out -lived
the desire for It. I can't tell you
all the mean things that man
did. But we boys around there
used to like to work on his dis-
position when we could think
of anything, and sometimes the
more agile -minded were able to
contrive a situation that should
have reformed him,
"Anyway, come Fourth of July
night, I took it into my head to
do something that would reform
Mr. Guppy in a complete and
helpful way and I took it out
on his grindstone. It took a little
doing, because a grindstone is
heavy, and I was closer to the
ground then, and I wanted this
to be a big surprise,
"Today, naturally, I don't have
an idea why this was supposed
to be funny or nice, or why it
was supposed to reform Mr.
Guppy, or what possessed me to
work so hard for such a little
possibility. But I stole up behind
his barn, and went into the shed,
and with the strength of ten
men I lifted that great gornh-
ing grindstone down out of the

stand and got it on the ground,
"Il was a hand -crank stone.
The kind that sat on foto' rollers,
and the shaft came out with
two bend; on. Funny nobody in
the old d Lys of Yankee ingenui-
ty never figured a clutch on a
grindston;'. If you had a good
bearing for it, you'd kick up
quite some momentum, and the
handle would fly around like a
windnli I I.
"Well, that's neither here nor
there, I had in mind to roll this
grindstone down past Mr. Gup-
py's front porch, where Ile was
sitting in his rocking chair
thinking up new things to be
mean about, and while I say I'nh
a little hazy now on just what
effect this was to set up, it seem-
ed at the time like a good thing
to do. Roll it, you know, like a
hoop. So, I got it rolling all
right, and I was cuffing it with
a little stick, and away we went.
"We went by Mr. Guppy's
front porch, and he sat up and
took notice, We went across the
yard with the crank flying free
on the other, side, and we wound
up about 35 yards of hog fence
on the handle, pulling out some
stakes and taking them with us,
and then we bit the soft ground
of the sink -drain area and come
to a muddy and final conclusion,
Quite a run, 'twas.
"So Mr. Guppy came down
and. says, "That looks like my
grindstone!' I now realized deep
inside that whatever it was I
had in mind at first hadn't pan-
ned out 100 per cent. Anyway,
he looked at the edges of the
grindstone, and se said I'd chip-
ped it beyond repair, and would
have to pay for it.
"I have never known, then or
now, what a grindstone Is worth,
new or secondhand. Money, then
was just something you touched
on In the eighth grade under
'Banking & Currency,' so after
Mr. Guppy and my father had a
summit meeting I agreed to hoe
corn for Mr. Guppy until the
grindstone was paid for,
"It took two weeks. His corn
patch ran from the main road
down to Sandy Stream, and while
I suppose it's half a mile, it
seemed like the same distance as
Utah. Every night he'd tell me I
was doing well, and at the end of
two weeks he said, 'There, now
I figure the grindstone is paid
for. Let that he a lesson to you,
and you ought to be glad .I was
kind and lenient instead of try-
ing to make things hard on you.'
"So that night I hitched Old
Meg into the wagon, and I drove
up to Mr. Guppy's and began to
load the grindstone into the wa-
gon, He came out and said, 'What
do you think you're doing?' I
said I was taking my grindstone
hone. He said I couldn't do that.
I said I could, that I'd paid for
and I wanted it.
"He appealed to my father,
and I renumber my father spoke
very slowly, like a judge with a
weighty decision, and he said,
'Now, Mr. Guppy, I don't want
to appear to be defending the
boy, but it seems to me you have
exhausted your discretionary
powers. I'nl inclined to think you
were worrying more about the
price of the grindstone than you
were the rehabilitation of a way-
ward youngster. In that cross-
wind of motives, you have been
hoist on your own bargain. I
suggest you take what it would
cost to hire a man for two weeks,
and go buy a new grindstone -
and I'll take on from here and
handle the boy.'
"That's what happened. He
drove in and bought a new grind-
stone for haying season, and I
still have the one I bought from
him. It's the best grindstone we
ever had, and every time I use it
I dodge the chipped edges and
reflect on my misspent youth and
the iniquities thereof." - by

Science Monitor.

Amendments to Canada's fruit,
vegetables and honey regulations
have just been put into effect, the
most significant of which deal
with potatoes,
They call for greater uniform-
ity in sizes of potatoes, especially
for those sold in consumer -size
packages weighing less than 25
pounds. Size limits are specified
for both round and long varietes.
4 4 •
Seriously misshapen potatoes
are to be excluded from Canada
No. 2 grade. However, a slight-
ly larger proportion of below -
minimum -size potatoes in both
No. 1 and No, 2 grades and pro-
portionately more potatoes with
hollow heart in Canada No. 1
Large grade will be permitted,
The provision dealing with
various types of damage in po-
tatoes, such as maturity, clean-
liness and sprouting, have been
re -defined to bring potato grade
standards more in line with pres-
ent-day market demands.
The sale of new potatoes which
have special size requirements
and no maturity requirements
has been extended from August
31 each year to September 15.
4 • •
Of the importance for export
sales to points other than the
United States is the provision
that a heavier weight of bag-
ging must be used so that it will
not tear during shipment.
• * 4
Some revision in grade stand-
ards have been made for cher-
ries, peaches and pears. They
relate to cleanliness and permiss-
ible damage at time of sale. They
also lower the box count for
peaches to prevent inclusion of
under -size fruit in graded con-
tainers. Cherries meeting the re-
quirements of Canada No. 2
grade may now be narked Can-
ada Domestic when packed in
any of the standard containers.
4
Other changes included re-
wording some sections because
of a recent re -organization of
the agriculture department and
several additions to the sched-
ule that sets out the dimensions
and capacities for standard pack-
ages for fruits and vegetables.
The regulations come under
the Fruit, Vegetables and Honey
Act, which is administered by
the FrUlt and Vegetable Divi-
sion of the Canada Department
of Agriculture.

A devastating disease of poul-
try known as Chronic Respira-
tory Disease (CRD), is consider-
ed the most important respira-
tory disease of chickens and tur-
keys in Canada.
CRD is believed to be caused
by the pleuropneumonia -like or-
ganism (PPLO), and according
to Dr. S. E. Magwood and Dr.
G. L. Bannister of the Health of
Animals Division, Canada De-
partment of Agriculture, the
clinical disease is commonly ag-
gravated by secondary bacterial
invaders.
♦ 4 •
A CRD control program should
aim at the establishment of
PPLO -free flocks, as the rearing
of PPLO -free chicks is depend-
ent on the parent flock being free
of the bacteria. The organism is
transmitted through the egg to
the chick,
• 4 4
If flocks are known to be in-
fected, the transmission cycle
can sometimes be broken by
antibiotic injection, although this
method has not been uniformly
successful. The use of PPLO -free
flocks is the most reliable method
of securing disease-free chicks
but it is a very exacting proced-
ure.
• • •
When laboratory diagnosis
has confirmed the presence of
PPLO as the principal agent in
an outbreak of respiratory dis-
ISSUE 36 - 1960
ease, the course of action to fol-
low should depend on the poten-
tial value of the flock.
Improvement in environment
Is always essential. Also, atten-
tion should be given to ventila-
tion, possible crowding, sanita-
tion and nutrition.
With broiler and production
flocks, oral medication with anti-
biotics may be helpful only. by
improving the appetite. AntI-
hiotic medication of flocks of
average value may often be un-
economical, but good nursing
will minimuize the flanancial
loss.
Valuable breeding flocks may
be given more prolonged anti-
biotic medication and antibiotic
injection might be considered.
Obvious symptoms of the dis-
ease are: nasal discharge, con-
junctivitis, respiratory rales,
"snicking" sounds and coughing,
followed by loss of appetite, loss
of weight, and in laying birds,
lowered egg production.

To reduce insects and mites
that persists in crevices, empty
farm granaries should be cleaned
and sprayed before new grain is
stored, advises E. A, R. Liscombe,
Winnipeg Research Station, Can-
ada Department of Agriculture.

Granary walls and floor should
be swept thoroughly before
spray is applied, and the sweep-
ings buried or burned, he warns.
Waste grain around the exterior
of the building should be treated
similarly.
Insecticides recommended in-
clude one per cent lindane, three
per cent malathion and five per
cent methoxyclor. Any one of
these may be applied with a
garden sprayer at one gallon
per thousand square feet, or to
the point of run -oft,
• • 4
All interior surfaces of gran-
aries should be treated and grain
should not be stored in them for
seven days after application.

LESSON
By Rev, R. Barclay Warren
ILA., B,D,
God's Hand in history
Isaiah 10:5-7, 12-15 14: 24-27
Memory Selection: The Lord
of hosts halls purposed, who shall
disannul Il? and his hand Is
stretcitefj out, and who shall turn
It back? Isaiah 14:27.
"I am rich, and increased with
goods, and have need of noth-
ing." Revelation 3:17, This, the
spirit of the Laodicean church, is
strongly reflected in this age.
But there come occasions to all
of us, when our self-sufficiency
dips sharply. A young friend,
whose capacity rated close to the
genius level, is doing his stint
of service in the United States
navy. He wrote to his father,
"I'm beginning to realize that I
haven't got t!le world by the
tail."
To us all there are tittles when
we stand in awe as flashes of
light reveal to us that there is
a higher Power over the destiny
of our lives. We see God's hand
In history. A friend missed his
plane by a few minutes. It was
well that he did, for that plane
crashed, killing all on board.
As we grow older, we can see
how events that seemed insignifi-
cant at the time, were really dis-
plays of God's hand in history.
The acceptance of my Christmas
article by a newspaper in 1941
didn't even get mention in my
diary. Now I can see that' it was
one of the most important events
in my life.
In our lesson we see how God
used the heathen Assyrian to
punish Israel. The Assyrian, with
lust to conquer the world, was
not yielded to God. Nevertheless,
Ile was the rod of God's anger
against Israel. In time God used
the Chaldean to break the power
of the Assyrian. Then in succes-
sion came the empires of the
Medes and Persians, the Greeks
and the Romans. God is still
above the affairs of man.
I have no leanings whatsoever
to atheistic communism, But I
wonder if Russia's professed
sympathy for the masses have
not spurred the colonial powers
to granting greater privileges of
self-expression and self-govern-
ment to the pe): )les under their
rule. Colony after colon y,
especially in A "rica, Is gaining
its independence). We speak dis-
paragingly of the communist agi-
tator. We tend to forget the de-
sire of all men, everywhere, to
be free. God may be using the
communist for His purpose. But
the communist, if he continues
in his denial of God, will him-
self be broken as was the Assy-
rian.
Any Volunteers
For Skeeter Bites?
Four young Australian medi-
cal research workers recently
exposed themselves voluntarily
'for three weeks to dangerous
mosquito bites. They sat on the
banks of the Mitchell River, in
Queensland gulf country, invit-
ing mosquitoes to attack them.
As the mosquitoes bit there the
scientists sucked off their at-
tackers with plastic hoses cov-
ered at the mouth with gauze,
Eleven thousand flies sus-
pected of carrying a deadly dis-
ease, encephalitis, were thus
collected.
Packed in dry ice they were
flown to Brisbane, where they
will be used for research work.
Experts hope to isolate from
their bodies the encephalitis
virus which, from time to time,
ravages riverside settlements in
Queensland.
It is thought that the virus is
brought from Asia by migratory

RARE TWINS - Charmeuse, a six-year-old mare in Hanson,
France, surprises the animal experts and proudly shows off
her twin foals. Twins are an extreme rarity in the horse world.
Nessie The Monster Back In The Swim
By TOM A. CULLEN
Newspaper Enterprise Assn.
London-Nessie, the Loch Ness
monster, has reared her fascinat-
ing head again while American
tourists are flocking to Scotland.
The monster with the six-foot
neck and headlamp eyes has
been turning up regularly ever
since she was first discovered 27
years ago, Usually her appear-
ances coincide with what is
known here as the "silly season,"
when newspapers are short of
copy and the Scots are short of
American dollars, But this time
she has been filmed.
Those who have seen this re-
markable film glade by Timothy
Dinsdale, a 36 -year-old aeronau-
tical engineer, say something
funny was going on in the depths
of Loch Ness while Dinsdale
held the camera to his eye,
The "thing" on celluloid first
appears as a triangular hump
above the water not unlike a
submarine snorkel. It is motion-
less, with no head or neck vis-
ible,
Suddenly tipples appear and it
begins to move, faster than the
motorboat which chased it. Dins -
dale, who first saw it with bin-
oculars at 1,300 yards, says that
it was reddish -brown in color
with darker splotches.
Dindsale, a former Royal Air
Force pilot, discounts the usual
theories that the phenomenon
was a shoal of eels or a midget
submarine. "It was definitely a
living animal, and it was be-
tween 40 and 50 feet long," he
says.
Dinsdale admits that he read
up on Loch Ness lore before
stalking Nessie with his tele-
scope movie camera, and that he
had made a drawing of the
monster from eye -witness ac-
counts. Certainly, he seems to
have known just where and
when to rendezvous with Nessie,
John Rankin, a Labor Member
of Parliament from Glasgow,
earlier this year predicted that
Nessie would soon be surfacing
again, and that this time she
might be accompanied by others.
Nessie was first sighted in
1933, and since then over 2,000
people, many of then sober,
claim to have seen her.
All agree that she is about 40
feet long with a long neck that
swivels from side to side, a bar-
rel chest, humps on her back,
.four flippers and a tail. Some
claim that she has nostrils on
top of her head like the blow-
hole of a whale.
Ever since a local circus of-
fered $90,000 for the capture of
Nessie dead or alive, diving en-
thusiasts have been combing
Loch Ness in search of her.
But recent plans to track Nes-
sie in teams with Bren guns and
even bombs have brought pro-
tests from the Scottish Tourist
Board and the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Ani-
mals.
Nessie has one serious cham-
pion in Dr. Maurice Burton, de-
puty keeper of zoology at the
British Museum. He believes
that Nessie may well be a sur-
vivor of the pre -historic plesio-
saur, a water -living reptile
thought to be extinct.
Although the age of reptiles
ended 70 million years ago, Bur-
ton thinks that the geographic
and climatic conditions of Loch
Ness might be such as to pre-
serve the plesiosaur, ,
THIS MODEL of Nessie was constructed on the basis of descriptions given by those who haus
"seen" her.

fire. People are 80 percent responsible

Reduced Production Creates
Employment Problems
(by J, Carl Hemingway)
ih looking over the report of the
Meat Packers Council I find some in•
(cresting figures, During the first
half of 1960 the average weekly ncar-
ke1in; of hogs decreased from 171,(100
to 150,000. 1 wonder just what this
means to the fanners?
The gross returns per week probably
hasn't, changed much since there has
been n definite increase in price. This
means that the producer has probably
changed from a break even or loss
position to 0 profit position. That is
if he is still producing. Who is respon-
sible for this drop in production? Is it
a few of tke largest producers that
have gone out of business or is it a
large number of small producers?
With 21,000 less hogs to process what
has become of this labour force? Are
many of them now in the ranks of the
unemployed? Or was this extra quant-
ity of pork processed largely on over
lime? In either case fewer dollars will
Ire in the hands of the consumers to
purchase merchandize of all kinds.
When a farmer finds himself short of
money and with extra time on his
hands he gets an extra cow or two or 0
few more pigs or hens to try to matte
up the deficiency. What does the fac-
tory worker do when he finds that the
ten dollars a week extra overtime pay,
to which he has become accustomed,
disappears. Does he make up the dif-
ference by laking on some odd jobs or
does he simply cut down on his pur-
chases?
Cattle marketings have increased
somewhat so perhaps that will take
care of employment problem in the
packing industry.
The same problem must be affecting
those employed in the handling of eggs.
Production has decreased and by the
sante amount so has the need for la-
bour. Just what answer do those who
promote the idea that the answer to
the farmers problem have fon' this de-
creased labour requirement? Certainly
if labour is unemployed it cannot pur-
chase farm produce. Reduced produc-
tion to increase price seems quite sim-
ple but let us realize that it also cre-
ates problems,
I have been watching the egg market
with interest lately. Three items seem
to be important factors. Production,
price, and export. The following are.
D.B.S. figures. July 23rd report, pro-
duction 122,768 thousand cases, price
to producers 32-35 AL Toronto to pro-
ducers, exports 5,731 cases. August
19th report, Production 116,154 thous-
and cases, price to producer's, Toronto,
AL 46-50, exports 635 cases. This seems
to be the pattern. Production up, price
down, exports up. Production down,
price ftp, exports down. This of course
is the way we should expect the market
to behave but the fluctuations are much
too extreme and certainly not to the
producers liking. Let's hope that our
poultry organization can develop an im-
proved marketing method for eggs,
Extra Time and Thought
Will Avert Mass Holiday
Tragedy
Many will lose their lives on Can-
adian highways during the next holiday
week end. To most of them death will
come quickly.
There will be no long-drawn-out per-
iod of suffering, or fear. A moment
before their sudden obliteration they
will be happy, carefree. Perhaps the
skies will be clear, and the heal of
the day tempered by the 70 m.p.h, rush
of air through the cat' windows. The
stinnulating "holiday feeling", accentu-
ated maybe by a few drinks of pleasure
right up to the end.
The frozen moment of horror just
before' the crash will be short. An in-
stant of agonizing realization as the
tires fait to grip on a curve, or anolhcr
car flashes into sight at the brow of a
hill, and then , . , final darkness. If
unnecessary death in any form is tol-
erable, this will he an easy way to die.
Except for the unlucky ones who linger
on for awhile in hospital, there will be
no prolonged pain, no despair, no re-
morse,
The dead will be at peace, Only the
bereaved, the mutilated and the ruined
will know lasting pain,
"It is possible to avert the mass
tragedy that we expect and dread on
Ontario roads over the holiday," says
Mr, F. II, Ellis, General Manager of
the Ontario Safety League, "Safety
can be bought, and we are asking for
donations from every motorist over the
holiday, A donation of a little extra
time and a little extra thought.
We ask each driver to give a few extra
moments on his vacation trip, so that
ire doesn't have to take senseless
chances in the never-ending tension of
trying to get ahead of the car in font.
if he starts his journey prepared to
give up a little time to the common
gond, he will drive relaxed and arrive
relaxed,
And if he will give a little extra
thou -ht to the needs and conveniences
o her toad users, as well as to the
avoidance of danger for everybody, our
highways over tlhe holiday will be a
lot safer, and a lot happier."

What Is TV Doing To Our
Children?
The nuclear weapons (hat scorched
lliroshima, and now stand poised with
a threat to decimate whole nations in
the first wave of attack, may have less
influence on man's future than the six-
shooters in the hands of gunmen and
sheriffs that stage nightly TV battles
in our living rooms.
Nuclear power - whether used for 011-
nihilation .or to serve mankind - af-
fects only tangible things. But tele-
vision has the power • on a scale that
never before approached in the history
of the world - to sway the minds of
men. In particular, it has the power
to influence the Hinds and personalit-
ies of children, the men and women of
tomorrow. Changes in thinking and
character will always be more potent
than changes in things, and the tele-
vision coverage that now saturates the
western world is undoubtedly moulding
the future, in a subtle but highly signs•
fioant way.
Thoughtful people are aware that T1'
Is affecting Canadian boys and girls,
But nobocly has any precise to the ex-
tent to which they are being affected;
nor of She direction in which they are
being swayed by this 'pervasive influ-
ence. In fact, there Is little solid focn-
dation to support a view that the over-
all effect of TV on our young people
Is either beneficial or undesirable:
Parents with TV sets can find much
to say in favour of the medium. The
entertainment is enjoyed by adults and
children alike, Many programs have
sti,ong educational value. It keeps
children luiel, and keeps them in off
the street, Patents commonly use TV
as a "pacifier'."
But psychologists arc looking fat'
beyond the surface advantages that can
be commanded at the turn of a switch,
They are speculating about longterm
results to children from consistent ex-
posure to the "fantasy" world of tele-
vision. They are thinking of the ef-
fects in the special terms of their pro-
fession • A'ddlction, Vicarious Ilabit
Formation, Frtistrabion 'Tolerance, Sub-
stitute Satisfaction, Identification, In-
terference with Practice of Real -Life
Skills,
The part TV plays in a child's life is
probably not different in gttali'y from
the influence of movies, the daily "com-
ics," or even the traditional fairy stor-
ies. It is the quantitative impact that
has made this matter (f such impor-
tance. !An audience research study by
the CBC in 1956 showed that "in 01-
'tawa, the average English-speaking
high school boy (with a TV set at
home) views TV about 151/2 hours a
week, while the average girl view:
about 181/2 hours." This supports 1,
study in Cambridge, Mass, in 1950.51.
showing that children averaged 181:
hours weekly looking at the home TA
set, Thus, watching TV takes up abou
one-sixth of a child's waking how's.
The Canadian Mome and School an'(,
Parent -'teacher Federation has move('
this problem into the spotlight by t,
Resolution urging the Board of Broad
cast Governors to undertake compre
hensive research into the effects of tele
vision upon lite -minds and personalities
of boys and -girls, Federation Treas.
urer, C, M. Bedford, B.A. B.Ed,, M.A
who drafted the resolution has specs
fidd that 1Iome and School want contig-
wing, long-term research into the cum
ulative effect of TV over a period o
years, CBC "audience research" am'
short term, unco-ordinated research o`'
universities and scholars does not meer
,the requirements of the Resolution.
Home and School, to underline the
need they feel exists, have suggested t
n1inil)1uln research budget to the Board
of Broadcast Governors - $02,000 annu-
ally, This represents about one-tenth
of one percent of the Parliamentary
mitts expected to go to the CBC ht
1960.61.
In effect, the 325,000 parents who
make up the Canadian Home and Schoo'
organization have said this to the BBC
and the CBC: "Television is doing
something profound to our children, 1:l
is affecting their habits, their know-
ledge, their thinking. Therefore, k
'gradual y changing the whole future of
the co ntry. We do not know whether
the o emit effect of the change is
good, bad, or insignificant, But we
want to know. We believe it is very
important • not only to us as parents,
but to all Canada - that we should
know, It is possible to get the rel-
evant knowledge, but only through a
research effort that is intense, and
continuing. You have money from the
nation that could make that effort.
Will you please do it."
Canadians in, and outside the huge
Home and School organization will
think this Is a good request. They
will look to tie Board of Broadcast
Governors for a good reply,
