A Letter To the Editor
Melville, Sask., June 9th, 1949
The Wingham Advance-Times,
Dear Editor;
Your esteemed and versatile paper
has reached me each week without
fail, for the, past year and is the most
welcome and avidly read publication
which reaches my sanctum.
Through its regular visit to my
home, I have been able to keep in
touch with many communities and re-
sorts. which were one time stamping
grounds of childhood and young man-
hood,
Permit me to commend the fine
spirit of unity of purpose, displayed
in your progressive community. The
noble work so ably carried on by your
fraternal organization, the Lions and
Kinsman's Clubs in guiding and dir-
ecting the outdoor sports and recrea-
tional activities of the young.
One cannot evaluate such voluntary
sacrificial work too highly, either from
a community or national viewpoint.
These groups are filling in' a Vital
gap 'between the door steps of schools
and churches, a crucial vacancy in
the life of the younger generation,
which often nullifies the fundamental
work of these institutions.
I notice by the column of your civic
news, you have one public need in
Coinnion with Melville, a fully modern
Ice Stadium.
This an urgent project and the
warmest wish for Success is with you
in dealing with this important utility,
It is so essential that all important
centres provide a variety of winter
recreational sports, for our long
Canadian winters. 'where resident
young folk, rural and urban may fore-
gather,
There is no greater moral force,
both national and international, which
tends to remove political, racial or,
religious barriers, create a spirit of
'unity and collision amongst our vRr-
'loin stratus of population than keenly
It is a civic project launched ,in
April with shares of $100 units offer-
ed to the public.
The campaign was precipitated by
planned publicity through the locaj
press.
The response so far has been very
gratifying, wit)) about half the amount
already subscribed. The sponsors hope
to have the building in readiness for
occupation for the opening of winter
sports. Sincerely yours,
W. J. McLeod,
