Young Liberals Meet .1n Seaforth By Gary Williams James Scott, former national or- ganizer of the Liberal Party of Canada, was the guest speaker at the Seaforth Young Liberal As- sociation's final meeting of the school year. 'Young Liberals occupied all available chairs for, the Monday evening gathering. Mr. Scott stressed the importance of Young Liberal Clubs as a source of "fresh blood" for the Senior Liberal As- sociation, The assembled young people listened attentively as Mr. Scott discussed the topic: "Poli- tics, What's In It For Me?" Ex- 'cerpts,of his speech appear below: "You have often heard the ex- pression, 'Politicians are in it for what they get out of it'. This is a very accurate statement, but is usually used erroneously in a mercenary sense. Politicians are not in politics for the money they can get -most members of parlia- ment are in debt. They must main- tain two homes: one in Ottawa, to be near their work, and one in their riding, to be near their elec- tors. The M.P,'s must contribute to every drive and charity so that ,They can't be called cheapskates, o5 be accused of favoring a par - titular charity. • "Our elected representatives are in politics because of the sense of accomplishment that comes with the knowledge that they are tak- ing an active part in the running of Canada. They have a respon- sible share in the "government. The government of Canada is only as good as the representatives that we, the people -you and I -elect at the polls. "But sometimes the wrong' peo- ple are elected, and the country loses some of the great respect with which other countries hold it. A poor government can't con trot unemployment, and some, times even a recession results. "The rewards of active polities are greater than in any other busi- ness. The competition is keener, and if you are successful you help run Canada. In this capacity you must possess more skill; you wield more power, and there is more uncertainty than in any other big business. "The Government of, Canada is the toughest business in the coun- try. It's members are expected to know everything, and must take a great deal of abuse." In his conclusion, Mr. Scott said: "You get out of politics ex- actly what you put into it," Refreshments were served while the Young Liberals quizzed Mr. Scott on various social and eco- nomic problems, unemployment in particular. 1960 Pontiac Laurentian Sedan -Automatic 1960 Pontiac Strato-Chief Sedan 2-1959 Chevrolet Bel, Air Sedans -automatic 1959 Pontiac V-8 Sedan -Automatic 1959 Chevrolet V-8 Coach -Automatic 1959 Pontiac Laurentian, 6 -Cylinder 1959 Vauxhall Super Four -Door 1958 Pontiac Laurentian Sedan -Automatic 1957 Buick Sedan -Automatic 1957 Mercury Sedan -Automatic 1956 Meteor Rideau Sedan -Automatic 1956 Chevrolet Sedan 1956 Ford Coach A Written Guarantee for 60 Days on all 1956 Chevrolet Station Wagon 1956 Ford Custom Sedan -Automatic 1955 Meteor Sedan -Automatic 1955 Buick Hardtop -Automatic 1954 Chevrolet Sedan -Automatic 1954 Ford Sedan 1954 Buick 1954 Pontiac MANY OLDER MODELS TRUCKS 1956 Chevrolet 1 -Ton Pickup, long box 1955 Chevrolet Dump Truck Late Model Cars -Many other Models to choose from BRUSSELS MOTORS BRUSSELS - ONTARIO PHONE 173 -- "The Home of Better Used Cars" OPEN EVERY EVENING ATTEND FUNERAL, Those from a distance attend- ing the funeral of Gordon Dick at the Box funeral chapel Thursday were: Mr. and Mrs. P.

Pick up a copy from your agricultural re- presentative and see what hybrids yield and mature best in your area. This might be the year to'switch to Climax timothy. The reason: O.A.C. Field Husbandry specialist Dr. Stan Young says the 1960 seed crop of timothy was the biggest on record, Certified Climax (the leafy timothy) has dropped. in price by one -third --from 35c a pound to 25c a pound.
