Ontario
Junior Citizens
of the Year
The purpose
This program will be inaugurated in
Ontario to provide recognition for
outstanding achievements or acts of
courage and initiative, by boys and girls
between the ages of six and eighteen
years. It will include individual awards
presented for meritorious conduct, and
special group awards for recognition of
the efforts of young people throughout
the communities of the province.
The reason
Extraordinary deeds of Ontario boys and
girls are often performed within the
community. We need you, the local
nominators and newspaper editors, to
bring these outstanding young people
to our attention, so that we will be able
to give them the honour and public
recognition, which they so richly deserve.
Who is eligible
Young individuals who have performed
acts of heroism, perhaps endangering
their own lives, overcoming disabling
physica.J or psychological handicaps to
match or exceed their peers, or being
involved in some worthwhile community
service endeavour.

division of 'business asset
often poses problems whic
must be worked out by legal
means.
Mr. Elston pointed out the
benefits this law has brough
to women,but wondered if•i
has tended to over -simplify
divorce so couples rush into
separatin before•getting
adequate counselling. He

situation worse.
