PACING PROGRESS....
No Canadian should remain indifferent to the fact that there is, in this
country, a program whose objective is to promote progress in dis-
advantaged rural'areas.
ARDA is a joint Federal-Provincial program and its goals are to
increase income and employment opportunities of rural people and
increase the efficient use of rural lands.
In order to achieve these objectives, AR DA is using various means :
--In Ontario, for example, major emphasis is bejng directed
to the farm enlargement program and to the counselling,
training and mobility programs which are applicable to the
entire rural. population.
— The problem in Ontario resolves itself into the improved
utilization of both human and natural resources. Our
changing technology almost dictates that society Will,be
increasingly urbanized. ARDA in Ontario can and as.
sisting in the many facets of relocating rural people in
urban' centers, while at the same time and wherever
possible the land resources of the rural areas are being
developed and brought into improved productivity to
better serve the rural population.
In brief, social and economic development for rural people and optimum
utilization of natural resources are the two concepts inspiring AR DA.

Even the best performers
appear occasionally in poor
shows. It's impossible to be cone
sistently good. Jack 'Benny's
variety hour last week fell into
that class. It was billed as 'a
"carnival of comedy" but there
were few laughs in it for me.
Benny has always been a
favourite of mine. He was tops
in radio every Sunday night
for years and years. Although
he was never what you could
call a great motion picture
star, he made many movies and
his fans enjoyed them. He main.•
tallied a show on television
which kept up his image for
several more years.
Then came his announcement
to retire and do a few speicals
during the television fall and
winter seasons.
Perhaps there were too many
guest stars appearing with
Benny in this dpecial.
Those who shared the hour
with Benny included Lucille
Ball, Johnny Carson, Ben Blue
and the rockers Paul R evere and
the Raiders.
Carson protrayed a carnival
barker; Lucille Ball played a
stripper; and Ben Blue played
the part of a witless mind
reader. Revere and his associe
ates performed two (or was it
three) numbers.
Brief appearances were made
by Bob Hope, Danny Thomas,
George Burns, eeederfeefilein,

One hour with Hope and

and Ball would be tremendous,

on a matter before the =Iven'

Mayor Whitton caught the at
tention of a country-wide audie
ence with a few well-chosen
words while otherlong, partic.
ular deliveries that had been
months on the writing tablet
were lost on a dozing public.
There is little doubt in my
mind that Judy LaMarsh would
inject some spicy sarcasm into
the fight. Judging from past
performances by LaMarsh, one
would suppose that she would
ruffle the feathers of the smug,
unnerve the confident and gen.

pects of the convention which
will be hidden under close wraps
if a political machine has the

There isn't a woman in Cane
ada who wouldn't be proud to
see the name of Judy LaMarsh
on the roster. Some would not
support her — few would give
odds that Miss LaMarsh would
survive the second or third
ballot. Still I believe that most
women would encourage Judy
to give it a whirl if for no
other reason than to show those
grinning male hopefuls that a,
woman can function effectively
enough to fluster and confound
the vote.
And think of the excitement
her entry would cause. What

Many persons commented that'
Mr. Thomson's presentation
had been the most valuable of
the entire day.
In clear, concise form Mr.
Thomson set forth the implie
cations of the new county school
board system coming into effect
on January 1, 1969.
"There will be one board
of education for a county," he
stated. "In Huron there will be
14 members, likely 13 from the
public school boards and one
from the separate school
boards."
"It will be the responsibility
of the county council to distri.
bute county - municipalities,"
Thomson continued.. "Within
certain limits, representation
will be determined by residen.
tial and farm, assessment. For '

"The tax bill in 1969 will

warned. "It will be done by the

Would grants be increased?
"With new divisional boards

will be eurprised if it isn't
sufficient so that it will not

Would Board of Education
