WHEN
YOUR
NEIGHBOUR
KNOCKS
ANSWER
THE CALL
AND
Husband: Will you please
hurry. We’ll be late for the
party.
Wife:. Please stop nagging!
I told you an hour ago I’d be
ready in a few minutes.
Long ago I realized. I' had
neither the time or the eyes to
accomplish all the reading I
Wanted to assimilate. Early in
my news writing career I found1
there were means of absorbing
much that is of interest in a
capsule method of information'.
Because of my particular kind
of job I found I was becoming
a headline reader, quickly scan
ning three daily newspapers
and an ' exchange of several
dozen weeklies. This kept me
more or less abreast of local,
provlindilal and topical news but
left much to be desired regard
ing what was really happening
progressively and industrially
across Canada. .,sThat is why, in the course of*
events, when I was added to
the mailing list for the releases
of the Departments of Industry
and Commerce by most of the
provinces, my knowledge flour
ished. I became attuned to the
rhythm that is the heart beat
of a developing nation. Many
of the articles published led to
personal interviews as well as
malting available to me, and
through the medium of this col
umn, information I hope may
prove the means of stimulating
pride in our heritage.
Some of these news media
are called “News Letters”. Al
berta bias one called “Wliithin
Our Borders” and just this
morning I received “Saskatche
wan — the Growth Province”.
When I lived on the prairies,
Saskatchewan was known as
the “next year” ’ province. Also1,
appropriately enough, because
of its crop harvest, “the bread
basket of the world”. Now the
industrial giant is oil, With pot
ash promising to outrank this
liquid gold in economic impor
tance.
With a heading reading “1965
— A Year Of Accomplishment”
it wasn’t any surprise to read
in the lead “- - production re
cords toppled in almost every
sector, and developments dur
ing the year indicate ever
greater prosperity ”
Imagine a 1965 420,000,000
bushel wheat crop and a/ net
forecast production figure for
nun-agricultural industries of
$750,000,000 and you can reason
why so many members of our
eastern youthful population are
taking seriously the old advice
“go west young man”.

mention a few) as Canada Ce

I especially mentioned the
last named industry because I
had the experience of going

days following the exciting one
