A second factor explored was
the spheres of influence of these
centres. This involved
consideration of the size of each
community and its associated
trade area, the function that
each centre serves in the region
and the influence of provincial
and federal government services
in each community.
The third factor analysed the
sectoral and industrial, mix of
centres. The table used in the
report was drawn up in 1961. At
that time the labor force in
Stratford totalled 8,154. Of this,
37.3 per cent worked in the
resource industries and
manufacturing sector, 40.6 per
cent were in the trades, services
and finance sector, and 22.1 per
cent were listed under other
special activities.

Several of the other campers were back for
their second, third and fourth times. They are'
attracted by the quiet, uncrowded conditions
and each of them has recommended the
Wingham park to friends, many of whom have
stayed here as a result..
We asked them about their reaction to our
town as well, and several remarked on the
beauty of the remainder of the park, the fine
swimming pool and the attractiveness of the
shopping section of the town.
We even snooped into their buying habits.
All families had made at least one purchase in
town and three mentioned that they had
bought articles to take home such as clothing
and food pr&lucts. All had or would before
they left, buy fuel for their cars..
The aggregate value of leaving a pleasant
impression on so many visitors each summer
can scarcely be calculated. They leave our park
and our town and depart for a hundred

Ontario community which cannot fail to be of
real worth to Wingham as the years go by.

From Stratford Beacon-Herald
The city of Stratford is said to
have high growth prospects
considering its economic base.
Prospects are based on the
attractiveness of the centre in
terms of cultural and
recreational services,
employment potential, and the
capacity of the centre to absorb
further population growth,
especially 'in terms of housing.
The city is rated in a report
released July 27 by the
department of treasury and
economics on the Midwestern
Ontario Region in a chapter on
growth centres.
Stratford is also said to have
ample land acreage owned,
zoned and serviced for industrial
sites. The report's rating system
considered not only the area of
industrial land available but also
the municipal action in
controlling land costs, land use
and the provision of services.
Under the category, water and
sewer capacity in Stratford, the
report stated: "The systems are
operating at or near capacity.
Community expansion is limited
unless the present system is
extended or certain limiting
problems within the system
rectified."
The city received a number
one, good rating under the
category, availability of cultural
and recreational facilities. ,
The report noted that with
inadequate means of attracting
large-scale manufacturing,
wholesale and cultural facilities,
most small urban places are
unable to provide the
sophisticated services demanded
by people today.
"In Ontario, the greatest
employment opportunities and
the most extensive range of
social and cultural amenities are
to be found in the larger urban
areas," the Midwestern Ontario
Region report says.
The report discussed the
growth centre (an urban core
and its surrounding service area)
in the light that ideally "the
benefits of growth are
transmitted from the larger
centre to its surrounding
territory so that the advantages
of urban life are shared among
the people of smaller centres and
rural areas."
The report also discusses the
'advantages of urban
concentration including a
maximum utilization of
investment, improvement in the
range of services likely to be
available to people and industry,
and exploitation of external
economies.
"Growth centres should be
chosen with careful regard to the
functions they are expected to
carry out in their respective
performance areas," the report
said.
"All in all, the total pattern of
growth points should comprise a
geographical mosaic which offers
employment opportunities to
essentially all urban and rural
people in the province."
In order to assess urban places ,
as possible centres for growth
and centres of potential
investment opportunity, several
factors were evaluated, including
the past rate of population
growth of the centre and the
surrounding area. The growth-of
urban centres was analysed for
two sub-regions: "the rapidly
growing Waterloo-Wellington
area, and the slower growth
counties of Huron and Perth."
A table showed that in the
period 1961 to 1968, Stratford
„grew 13.7 per cent. Listowel,
grew 14.5 per cent, St. Marys
5,4 per cent, Mitchell 6,5 per
Does your mind boggle at the
thought of editing movie film?
Does splicing make you shudder?
Then forget them both — and
make lively summer and vacation
movies — by doing your editing in
the camera, All you have to do is
plan ahead and film your movie in
sequence.
The welcome simplicity and
growing popularity of this movie
form has encouraged many
amateur film clubs to sponsor "one
reeler" contests for members.
At the same time, this year's
Kodak Teen-Age Movie Awards
has added a one-reeler category in
which 12 to 19-year-olds are eli-
gible to enter silent super 8 or 8mm
unedited 50-foot reels.
How to make a whole-in-one
with your movie camera ?
Begin ,by preparing a "shooting
script", scene by scene, of your
story or coverage of a happening.
Include how long each scene
should last (a 50-foot roll of super
8 film runs four minutes) and at
what distance each scene should
be filmed.
Twenty-five feet or more consti-
tutes a long shot, six to 25 feet a
medium shot, and less than six
feet, a close-up.
Each has its place in the
one-reeler. Distance shots estab-
lish the setting for the audience.
Medium shots feature the interplay
of the characters. And close-upso.
concentrate on the feelings of the
individuals towards the action.
Try to confine yourself to. just a-
few actors, and a minh'sal number
of simple props,
A single location is ,best for a
one-reeler because scenes must be
shot in sequence. It helps, too, if
the action of the story takes place
in a short period of time, prefer-
ably less than a day.
With the preparation behind
you, all you need is a simple movie
camera, like the Kodak Instamatic
M24, a roll 'ofmovie film, and if
you are shooting indoors, a movie
light,
Color film is a good choice for
most subjects, but if your story is
sad or spooky, you might want to
try black-and-white for special
effects.
The actors in your film should
be directed clearly and carefUlly
. so that they understand what the
scene is intended to portray.
Remember, in a one-reeler, there
are no re-takes. Rehearse each
scene once or twice, then shoot,
and move on.
While stories, especially those
with a twist or surprise ending,
make excellent one-reelers, the
form can also be adapted to such
non-fiction subjects as a science
project or family 'event.
Or, for that matter, a film poem,
a series of images through which
youthe express
world.
your feelings , about
-
Whether your taste runs to the
dramatic or the humorous or the
poetic or the documentary, the
whole-in-one movie is a grand
exercise in moviemaking discipline,
because there is not a frame of
room for the non-essential.
And when you have mastered the
technique, aim your sights at an
eight-minute epic! If you still
can't face splicing, show two ones
reelers instead.
Their park is successful
Closing dates announced
for Western Fair
Some time ago, the News-Record urged the
building of a park in Clinton with camping
facilities tor, tourists.,
It may be argued by some, that since Clinton
is inland, only a few miles from resorts on Lake
Huron that have camping facilities, few tourists
would wish to stay here when they could go to
the lake.
The following article which recently
appeared in the Wingham Advance-Times tells
of the success of a camping ground there, a
town 20 miles from lake Huron.
PLEASED WITH THE PARK
On Saturday afternoon we took the camera
down to the camping. area at Riverside Park to
get a few shots, of the park and its visitors.
There were 11 tents and trailers set up and we
took time out to talk to several of the campers.
Without exception they were tickled pink to
be able to camp in a spot that is still not
crowded, where the grounds are clean and tidy
and the washroom facilities are so modern and
well kept. One man from St. Clair, Mich., said
this was his first visit to the Wingham park, but
he was "sure coming back next year." He has
