ORGANIZATION MEETING POINTS TOWARD SUCCESSirVL TEEN TOWN An excellent turn out of appro- ximately fortyfiyQ teenagers assembled in the Memorial Hall, Blyth, Tuesday night for a sheet ing proposed to organize a tee town for the Myth area, Thos )resent represented Blyth, Au )urn, Walton and the surroundin area, Mr. Don Coghlin generally out Med the undertaking, He pointe o,ut that community support wa behind the organization, The illage recreation committee, he aid, would be willing to back a een town and the local Lion's lub would pledge their support in the form of chaperones and ov• erseers, Mr, Coghlin, however, stressed idle fact that this Teen Town would be a self -governed club and that many responsibilit• ies would have to be met and car. ried by the teenagers, An executive committee was set up, 'Nle officers appointed were as follows; President, Danny Campbell; Vice -President, Cheryl "roll; Secretary, Brenda Shaw; Treasurer, Bruce Elliott, Il was pascsed that this commit- tee would only be a standing com• mittee, appointed to get the "ball rolling." As soon as full member- ship is achieved, a complete exe cutive will be elected, All area teenagers are welcbn ed to join this teen town so ware} the Standard for further details or contact a member of the exe culive for any information, • n e • g • s Beard Growing Contest Should Spark Excitement It appeals as though there will be some "mighty unhappy' wives around Blyth and distnlet ,during the next few months, This issue of The Standard contains an ad. informing us of a beard growing contest being conducted by the Blyth Lions Club, A registration fee of two dol- lars will be charged to those who wish to enter the contest. The same price will be charged to those desiring to remain' clean- shaven, in order to obtain a shay - big certificate. Whether we feel like entering the contest or not, it appears as though we'll be nip- ped for two dollars in either case, However, the money received will be added to the artificial ice fund so very few objections should be forthcoming. Practically every community in this part of the country Is running such a contest and each are opera!• ed in a like manner, In any event, it should make for a very interesting conversa- tion piece, and should bring a good many laughs during the next few months, You- will find the rules of the contest in an adver• tisement on one of the inside pag. es of this issue, Congratulations to 11lr.

Many of the calls have been made but there still remains a goodly portion of the community to be canvassed, So, if you haven't been called on as yet for your do nation, never fear, someone will he around shortly to do just that, A further list of donations is in this Issue, following this arti- cle. You are again asked to take notice that those marked with a (*) have also donated to the pre- vious ice canvass. Many of our rural residents have been,asking us if and when a canvas will be conducted in their area. To this we can only say quite definitely yes, 1t is planned to start the rural drive immediat- ely following the village canvass. In fact, the people who will he conducting this drive fc.r funds will attend this Thursday night's meeting of the Lions Club la re- ceive instructions, etc. The coverage of the entire area, you must admit, is a pretty big job and simply couldn't be accom- phiShed in one toul swoop. Many of the canvassers are extremely busy at their various places of employment and find it quite difficult to find the time to, spend canvassing in any one day, But they are out on the job and will definitely be calling on you before very long, • Barbara Campbell 10.00 1 Doug Rowson 50,00 k Jack Wilson 60,00 • Dwight Campbell , .. , 100.00 t Bill Campbell , ...... , , 10.00 Danny Campbell .... , , , 5.00 Mrs, Marcella McNall , , 10,00 Anonymous 25.00 *Alfred Pierce 25.00 Junior Girls Bali Team ▪ 1952 ...., Kevin Tasker .,.....,.., Bruce Fear Velma Naylor Bill Radford Mrs. G.

Or perhaps the early return of the robin indicates an early ar- rival of spring this year. If so, we more than welcome his visit, PAGE TWO SUGAR. .na. SPICE By Biu Smi.y MORE ON EDUCATION This was supposed to be part two of a series on education in this country. Last week, 1 complained about: obsolescence; the lack of everything but pupils; the unfairness of the fund-raising for education; the lack of any national standards; and the rigidity of practically everything in the system. Not bad for a start, In all the years 1 wrote this column before I began peddling pedagogy, nobody tried to supress my opinions here. Many dis- agreed violently. Others threatened to cancel their subscriptions. Some said I was vulgar. And one reverend gentleman even offered to thrash me within an inch of my life. I reminded him that my big brother was a six -foot -two, 210 pound engineer, and I never heard another word, The first hint that I should tone it down carte from a representative of the mighty teachers' federation. Said they'd haci several letters from members urging that I be drummed out of the service because I was destroying the teacher's image by mention• ing here such human horrors as sex and drink, and by using the odd epithet. He asked me (heavily what I would do in his position, 1 replied lightly, that I'd do what I always do with letters front cranks and bigots ••• chuck 'em in the wastebasket. Ile was annoyed. Pinned down, he admitted there were two such letters, And I was annoyed, Second subtle suggestion was from an inspector. A lady. She passed the word that the Deputy Minister, no less, was concern- ed about my column and its contents. I turned indigo and snarled, "You mean the Department is trying to tell me what I can say and can't say in my column?" "Nonononono!", she blurted, visions of headlines dancing in her head. "It's merely hoped that you'll use your own good judgement." Next time, it was another inspector. At the time, a now - defunct. newspaper for teachers was running my column. The paper was happy; the fan mail was heavy. But, whispered this inspector, he thought he should tell me, for my own sake:, that 1 was getting in wrong with the fedeartion. "Waddaya tokkin about!", I enquired in my best Head ol. English Department manner. And got no answer that I could pin down. I seem to be down on inspectors this week. And so I am, We got the word the English inspectors were coming. I alerted my 15 -odd birds in the English department. Next morning, the English staff would have gladdened your eye. Gals all in their best dresses, hair fresh -done. Men with their shoes shined. And every single one glowing with virtue after working till one a.m, preparing the sort of unrealistic but model. Iessons that inspectors expect. Nine a.m. Word comes that they wouldn't be there. Snow- ing and blowing. Any of us would have struck off for anywhere. But these city -nurtured drivers are terrified by a bit of wind and snow, So we shot off all those terrific lessons on the kids. Mine laughed heartily when they saw my desk cleaned off, It was the first time they'd seen me below the breastbone in months. And tomorrow we have to do it all over again, because the inspectors are still coming, if they can make it. May they go inn, a big snow -bank and sit there for four hours. If they do struggle through, it will he an anti -climax. The girls' dresses are crushed and their hair coming clown. And I sure as hell am not going to shine my shoes two days in a row. Just another of the evils of our system. A teacher is given a record of merit by an inspector, who sees him maybe once a year, for one or two lessons. The self-confident showman, who may be a lazy burn normally, whips up a flashy lesson for inspec- tion, and scores high, The self-conscious teacher, who normally, does a terrific job, becomes nervous and makes a botch of things, and scores low. I don't really hate inspectors. They've changed. They are no longer the old terrors, but a pretty decent, helpful lot. But the system is punk. More next week, maybe. ?i.!1161i!1il!61111!ilfli!II!I!!!il!16!ill!iil!11!11111611111Gi�661161!6111111;111111611{!! li!!lii!I'I�!'!liii'ii I' i !',;i;� � iii �li' �ik�i�lll�'I '�u'�'�ii��i!'I�r �'i�i��� �'�?; rig �;u � IT'S GOOD BUSINESS TO USE THE CLASSIFIED PAGES OF THE STANDARD Whether Shopping For a Bargain or Looking For a Buyer ti "$LYTH STANDA,Rtb • WEDNESDAY, FESIWARY 8, W Report From Queen's Park (13y ,Murray Gaunt, MPP, Huron—Brute) This week featured major spec' ches by bhe leaders of all three panties in the Throne Debate. • First to lead 'off •for the Oppo- sition was Opposition Leader,' Ro• bert Nixon. Mr, -.Nixon limited himself to -two election promises during his one hour and twenty minute speech, He said that a Liberal Government would: (1). take over 80% of education costs, leaving 20% to be paid out of property taxes, in stages during a normal four year to five year term in office; (Provincial Government sup- port now amount to about 50%). (2) Take immediate steps to, cut down the cost of government, in eluding reducing the size of the Cabinet. In addition Mr. Nixon said pro• cedures of the Ontario Labour Re- lations Board should be speeded up and legislation introduced to abolish the use of ex -parte injunc• tions in labour disputes. Expropriation procedures should be amended, he said, to do away with haggling between Govern• ment agencies and landowners. I -Ie went on to say that the prob. leets of farm income are still plaguing us and continue to be Uhe most important farm problem facing us today, and cited figures to prove it, Next came Donald MacDonald, Leader of the New Democratic Party, 11Ir, MacDonald dealt at some length with the downfall of Prudential Finance Corporation. IIe said the Government's failure to enforce its own orders to Pru- dential Finance Corporation al. lowed the Company to defraud Wim W/utrng It's time the Liberals in Ottawa woke up and perhaps they would discover why the West is Conser- vative. A Calgary firm, Community Antenna Television Company, was recently refused permission by the Department of Transport to bring U.S. programs into Calgary via a microwave connection with Salt Lake Oily, Utah, A City Alderman of Calgary, Jack Davis, flew to Ottawa after the bid was refused, but the Cab- inet wouldn't review the decision and he couldn't get to see Trans. pont Minister Pickersgill. however, he was invited to sub - milt a brief to the Commons Com• matte on Broadcasting, The , firm is now considering using video-tape facilities to got around the federal regulations. But, there's one thing Mr, Davis is forgetting. If he attempts this (and he wouldn't dare) he would be breaking the laW by operating a TV station without a licence. It's a sad thing to admit and see, but discrimination does exit in Canada and the government is responsible. People in this. area can watdh the three American and two Canadian networks with the use of an antenna, or cable '1'V If the area is served. Why should citizens in Calgary be Tor- sed to witch a minimum of tele- vision entertainment? A personal note to Jack Pickers- gill and Judy LaMarsh: Go West or North and see how you like watching T the limited number of TV stations and programs. Don't go for a week or two - - stay a year. You would certainly return to Ottawa With your eyes open and perhaps the two of •you would be able to write a sensible Broadcast- ing Act. We need one for ALL Canadians. many small investors, Mr, MacDonald charged that Prudential ignored orders from the Ontario Securities Commis• sion, first to stop selling notes to the public ancl then to stop selling them to its own noteholders. Theseorders were ignored by Attorney General Arthur Wishart, he noted, had said the Govern- ment could not act against Pru- dential until last November be- cause it was not aware of any law being broken, Mr. MacDonald then went on to point out that if the underlying principle of the securities legis- lation is full disclosure it woulcl be consistent with that principle' 1:0 let security holders and the general public know that Pruden- tial was getting deeper and deep- er into, trouble. By failing to in- form the public, the Socialist lea- der charged the Government Jul - loci the financial community into a false sense of security, Premier R.obarts defended his invitation to call a Conference' on Confederation. 'Phe meeting, he said, would provide an oppontunity for a re- laxed diagnosis of Canada's ills in which the levels of Government could work out their own inter- ests and the interests of the coun- try in advance of any formal ag- reements, Ontario played an important role in Confederation in 1867 and we are anxious to play that same pant again, free of the bias or procedure of the existing sys- tem of federal,provincial confer- ences or even of the interprovin- cial conferences, the Premier staled. BELGRAVE C.G.I.T. GIRLS HELD MEETING "News Items From the Past" will be the roll call for the C.G. 1.'I', girls, Belgrave, When they meet for their next meeting on February, 15. On Wencsday, Iieb- ruary, 1st, when the girls amt they were asked as pant of their mis- sion project to use their imagin- ation and write a news story. Sub- jects picked by the girls were varied: "Beard Growing Contest," "Birthday Panty," selling choco- lates and the following, "Space Man Visits Belgrave:" On January 30, at 7 p.m., Bel- grave had one of bhe most excit• ing experiences in its history. All of a sudden the sky betaine bright as daylight. Space ships were surrounding Amos' General Store. Were they going to get something to. eat or were they going .to invade? This is what the Belgrave people were wonder- ing. These creatures were green, bout 3 feet high with 6 legs and 9 arms and 7 fingers on each hand. They had bulging eyes that were able to turn corners and had rear view mirrors at- tached. Belgrave soon discovered that these things were friendly and nvanted to live on earth. The Ci- ty of Belgrave will never forget this unforgettable experience. FICTION. The next meeting will also fea- ture a debate the subject "Cent- ral Schools versus One Room Scrhools." Kathy Chandler and Marion McGee will take the neg- ative and Mary Ann Wheeler and Alary Ellen Taylor the affirma- tive. During the business meeting the girls decided to again sell chocolates. Their centennial pro- ject has not yet been decided. Worship Service was taken by Kathy Chandler and Marion Mc- Gee, Call to worship by Kathy - followcd by scripture lesson from 1st Peter read by Marion. A med• itabion entitled "Neighbours" was read by Kathy. Joyce Taylor and Brenda Johnston received the of- fering and Marion dedicated it. Kathy led in prayer.

TH .1 CL TB `; THE BLYTH STANDARD LIONS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED BY TWO OF THIS WEEK'S DONATIONS The Blyth Limit' Club were pleasantly surprised and extreme- ly grateful for two of the dona- tions to the artificial ice- cam- paign listed in this week's issue of .Tire Standard. The one from the junior girls ball team is a very worthwhile contribution indeed, and• is a very heartwarming gesture by the girls of the now defunct team. It was money left over from the 1952 operations of the team and it couldn't have been donated to a better cause. Members of the ball team that year were: IIelen 1lamilton, Lenora 1-Iamilton, Marj- orie Knox, Joanne Hodgins, Yvonne McNall, Betty MacDon- alcl, Marlene Walsh, Thelma Baird, Verna Eyre, June McNall and Donna McVittie. Many of these girls have since been married. and clanged their name. Many are still residents of this area and rill be recognizable to local res- idents by their maiden names, The other donation is from Mr. William S. McVittie of Hespeler, Ile is a nephew of Miss Pearl Gid- ley and is a native of Blyth, Readers of The Standard will recall that Mr. McVittie was chos- en "flan of the Year" in I Iespel- er in 1965, Ile was awarded this honor mostly for .his work in Hes- peter on projects very similar to our own artificial ice , campaign. Mr. 111eVi11ie know doubt knows of the tremendous benefits arti- ficial ice offers to: the youth of any community and his very worth- ‘vhile contribution is welcomed wilth pleasure and will aid in putting the campaign "over the top." Maybe some of our former res- ident: will lake heart from Mr, ilIcVittie's generosity, and perhaps donations from them will soon be included on the list of contri- butors. Any and all would be welcomed..

In fact, inclement weath- er 'has forced the cancellation of the popular games for two straight weeks in a row. The jackpot prize will remain the same for this week's event -• $95,00 - and the Lions are hoping for better co-operation from the unpredictable weatherman come this Saturday night. A large amount of money is being put up for grabs each week by the Lions, and if weather con• ditions forced a poor turn out, they could literally "lose their shints" if the games were held on such an evening. It's bound' to be decent weath- REPORT Officers of the Wingham De. tachment of the Ontario Provin- cial Police worked a total of 246 dtuly • hours and patrolled a total er this Saturday and there is a good chance of the money being won. Won't you try to be on hand and offer your support to the Lions? 13y doing so, you vl1I also be helping the artificial ie' fud.
