Following are the winning essays. My Responsibility AS A Canadian By Maureen, Ryan, RR 1, Dublin Ever since the primitive hun- ters, the explorers, the priests, peasants, farmers and fur trad- ers pushed back the curtain on this green and untried continent they have had a responsibility to it. rs, e essay - ity see the value of studying Their responsibility- was great one to tame this strange, wild country and, to leave to it their sons, to 'continue their work of. building this mysterious land into a, someday, great nation. And so, those s;eady men sowed and reaped,. building last- ing fatuadations. They blasted her rocks and channeled her waterways from Shore to shore. They fought for her with guns, ens and politics and, slowly here arose a young dation. Decades passed and this -land as walked, ridden, driven, pad led and flown. She was begin- Ringto open up and her true eauty .and power shone hrough. This was the responsibility of our ancestors; people with only aith, hope and an ambitious -earning to found a home, to build a country worthy of their eritage. Their • duty, their wish" was certainly abundant - fulfilled. And so - here we stand to - ay, "the neW generation",, with e bulk of ' the responsibility esting on our shoulders. We must carry On the development nit the expansion of this na- ion with patience and love. We must give her greater potential character; but above all - e must give her -peace and ee that she gives it. :•Therefore, I, myself, and ev- ry individual from coast to oast hes a responsibility to anada: I must bow to the laws f the land; I ,must respect the Id in years, and be kind and onsiderate to the young and elpless; I must be respectful and, obedient to all.law enforce-. 'era officers, including • the orner "Cop". People seem to orget that he is our friend, and not just some nosy person hunting for trouble. But .to carry onthe ,govern- ent of Canada "fairly and quarely" requires experieuce nd• kn,aiiqedge. These two assets ay be obtained from at leait o reliable sources •- the old r and wiser citizens who can provide advice worth listening o; and literature of tile earlier mistakes and valuable inforrna- ion of important Men in Cana- ian History.

And when our generation has finally reached the point of "driver",- so to speak, may we CDO so with patience and love. -I shall endeavour to fulfil my day to my country to the very greatest degree possible; always 'seeking out the good and last- ing in everything; by employ- ing my hands and mind to the task to multiply the fruit. My Motto shall, - that a smile and a kind word brings more „happiness into the heart of gian than a thousand, curses and or- ders. In this way, I -believe, I shall be fulfilling my responsibility to Canada, as Iny ancestors did When they left only their sons, and graves. To sum up, any responsibility is to provide my children and grandchildren with a proud feeling when they say to their foreign neighbors: "I am' a Canadian". • My Responsibility As A • Canadian By Mary Sills, Seaforth We Caeadians are the most fortunate group of people in the world. We have been ,endow- ed with a country which is rich in agricultural land), minerals," forests; we have been -given a land of magnificence, might and majesty. I can remember my grandfather telling me stories about Seaforth, its sur- rounding areas and just „Can- ada as a whole. He told of the happy times and the sad“times that- the people of thiS area experienced,. He told me how, when he was younger, there were still Indians travelling along their paths at the east end of Seaforth in MeKillop township. -And he described to inc the beauty heldi by our western provinces and valich I have 'since been, fortunate enough to witness far myself. But what does all this have to do with my responsibility as a Canadian? Why did: I tell you? Because you and I as Canadians mint strive to ,maintain our Canadian heritage, our hospitali- ty and our honesty which have been Milt up for_iisAy as bination of all the nationalities in the world. People come to, Canada because here they find all their wants and needs at their fingertins, They' find jus- tice, friendliness', beauty, na- tural resources and security_ 'And it is up to me - one girl out, of twenty „millien people - to help maintain these qualities of our wonder - fill country. You might say to yourself, "What can she do?" Welt, allow nib to point out some ways in which I cad do my duty for my country and my fellow man. Being only sixteen I have not yet obtained the privilege .of Voting:. Yes, I say "privi- lege of voting". ,Canada is a democracy min by ,her citizens. This is true in all elections - federal, provincial. and munici- pal. Wouldn't it be terrible if we had no say in the governing of our country? And still many people neglect to vote - some because of laziness and disin- terest, others because they lack election information, But you can he sure that when I reach twenty-one, Ill vote for the man I think best for the job because then I can expect a good jab done in return. As for the people who- didn't have information about ,candi- dates, they could easily have acquired this byreading their newspaper. This , keeps a per- son up to drate,on local, federal . ana world affairs. We like to know what's going on inside our family so we should sure- ly want to knout what's happen- ing in that which affects our family. Since this is our centennial year, there have been many projects undertaken to beauti- fy or build up different regions df 'almost ' every community in Canada'. This is wonderful.

And should these projeett be limited tO community attains? . Why not extend it to your own home.? 1f everyone took care of his, lawn- alone, think what a dif- ference ,there would be. Even by keeping xn roo.ra clean I can be a great help, And what presents a greater responsibility than to folio* the Golden Rule? This -has tremen- dou:s power and by exercising this rule I can help maybe only one person to becoming a bet- ter Canadian,. but are -in turn would help another and we would end up with a country and eventually a world, which is free of strife; there would be no wars and we could live without any fears. Being aL Canadian is quite a responsibility. beeause I have to help maintain .all the differ- ent cultures which have been woven together to'inake a Can- adian the' unique person he is. - 1 must see that the good points of the cultures in Canada re- main, and that the bad points are pushed back. , So you see we, as. Canadians, have &responsible but a reward- ing position. By being good Canadians we receive what we desire . with a satisfaction of knowing "I helped do this." It takes a tragedy for a lot of people :to realize what they have. This is shoWn by two world wars. 'We in Canada could have lost our freedom and rights. But we didn't be- cause of Canada's participation in a fight for what she felt was right. Only then did many people realise what, their Can ada has to offer. So let u.4 be conscious always of this. land of ours and let us do our part as being responsible Canadians. Let ine quote a verse from a World War If song en- titled "1 .im a Canadian". "I ani a .Canadian, I'm proud Of my liberty,. I am a Canadian, I am, every part of me." No .let's live up toit.
