Piepoint was made by Dr. N. R. Richardsdean a Ontario Agricultural :• 011gge at Guelph when he addressed members of the Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies recently. Fewer people are aSsociated with the rural community of today. Urban centres have a greater influence on rural areas than formerly. Fewer people are associated with agriculture and they have a responsibility to fell about the increasing need fbr, food and fibre in Canada and for the developing countries, Dean Richards said. Dr. Richards challenged the socities to tell, to educate, and proclaim the im- , Watch for Bank. The Bank InspectOr Fraud people are at it again; • Area Provincial Police say that dur- ing the first few weeks of this year elderly -depositors in at least sixteen South Western Ontario towns have been swintired-out of mny ,thousands of dollars. It all begins when someone phones an unsuspecting person — usually eld- erly, often living alone — and in an authoritive voice indicates an investiga- tion is under way of a. dishonest bank employee. The t aller usually identifies himself as a police officer or bank in- portance of the production of high quality' food and the contribution it is making to society. The amazing feats of production which farmers have achieved — aided, it is true,' with. modern chemical know- how — are accomplishments with which all too few of the enlarging ur- ban population are familiar. And this is where agricultural societies enter the picture. What better means exist than the local fair and the activities associated with it to interpret the rural problems and rural achievements to neighbors in the towns and cities. The gatherings of course are by no means one-way streets. Equally impor- tant is the familiarity with urban prob- lems which the rural dweller will gain. What could ccintribute -more effec- tively to a well rounded community? Inspector Frauds spector and asks that the person they are addressing go to the bank and withdraw a substantial sum of money. They are warned of course, "Don't tell anybody". By various ways the caller in , a later visit or meeting obtains the money. The answer is shnple — don't with- draw funds when requested to do so in these circumstances. If you receive such a phone call talk it over with your bank manager or with the police. Only with your co-operation can the banks and the police -protect your money.

DO YOU HATE YOUR WIFE? -Does she talk all the time about Her Relatives? Does she Nag about Nothing? Ia. she a Miserly Spendthrift? Is she Too Hard on the Kids or Too Easy on the Kids? Ls she al- ways wanting to Talk Things Out? Does she ignore your Sterling Qualities and pick con- stantly on your eight or ten Little Weaknesses? LADIES! DO YOU HATE YOUR HUSBAND?

Does he always want to avoid .Talking Things 00? Does he ignore your Chatxn, piek on inconsequeetials like that watermelon' that has re- placed', Your little, fiat tummy of former days? Sorry, but this isn't an ad- vertisement. If it were, there'd be a coupon to send • in, and we'd get everybody squared around in no time. It's merely a questionnaire. But if the answer to the first question, in each case, is, "Sometimes", and the answee„ to all the others is an unquali- .fied, ringing, "Yes!", you're an honest man or wom-an, and a perfectly normal one, with a good, average normal marriage going for you. If your, answer is, "No!" there's no point in reading far- ther, because you're a liar or you should be in heaven and not reading this tripe at all. I know that I hate my wife sometimes, deeply and bitterly, and I know that she hates mo sometimes with the same ad- verbs. But c'est la guerre, and if you don't think marriage is a guerre, either you aren't mar- riedor you aren't bilingual. On, tho other hand, there's a.'3 shoulder -to shoulder solidarity in the average marriage that makes up for practically every- thihg. A Jr -Ian and woman who fight constantly, verbally and even physically, will turn like a pair of cobras and hiss and spit atsomeone who criticizes either of them. They will forgive each other for the most monstrous insults, the most cutting and vicious remarks, if it's the real .thing. They dein cherish each other in sickness as well as in health, in poverty as well as in wealth. r don't know what brought all this on, except that it's sn•o,wing and the wind is howl- ing about the house, .and / know my Old Lady is lonely in the city and I'm lonely at home. There's nobody there to tell her that there aren't any ghosts,- that the kids will prob- ably turn , out OK despite afl evidence, and that -She's a hell of a good-looking girl when she gets fixed up. And there's nobody here to tell me that I'm clever, despite my stupidity In some areas, that I'm a good husband and father, despite my lapses, and that my, column is readable, if I'd, only leave out the vulgari- ties. She's so lonely in the city that she ,can, scarcely wait to get home on weekends so we, ' can fight a normal life. And I'm so lonely at home that I can hardly wait to hear the cheer- ful babble that normally drives me tip the curtains. She misses my casual atti- tude toward money and, bills: And I 'miss her furious insis- tence that the budget should he kept in order. And I guess that's what this column is all about. You chaps who answered "Yes" to all the questions in the quiz that be- gan it might take another look at old Myrtle and count your blessings, even if there are only a couple of them. Try it without the Old,,Girl for four or five months. To - c.1 morrow, for example, 1 have to shovel the front and back side- walks, get breakfast, and put out the garbage, before 1 even start the day's work. In the good old days, I'd leave all that to Mum. And threther, am I getting sick of those frozen chicken pies!

The following essays, select- ed by Mrs. Eyre are typical of the reports. By Steven Bennett Oa Friday our Grade four class went to the Huron Expos- itor. We went in two groups.

An- other machine there was cal- led a Iinotype. , The Linotype made the words that they use.

By Ross Govier On Friday our Grade four class visited the Expositor. As soon as we arrived, there Mr. Knetsch took half of the grade and Alr. Scott took the other half. Some 0o1 the maohines that we saw were the paper cutter, Linotype machine, news- paper folder, paper puncher, addresser and the printing press. We learned a lot about how they wOrk and how neat it is. I enjoyed it very much.
