New School Is Welcome Addition
Recent announcement that a new
. school of agriculture_ and home econo-
mics would begin operation this fall
,at Centralia will bring encouragement
not only ' to the Exeter -Centralia area
but to all of Huron.
When the changing role of the RCAF
forced new concepts of training which
resulted in the decision to, close RCAF
Station Centralia there was wide spread
concern because the station during the
twenty years it had operated had made
a. major contribution to the economy of
the Southern part of the county.
Possibility that the facilities at the
base could be useful in other was ex-
. plored by Exeter citizens with the aid
of Huron MPP and Provincial Treasur-
• ,er Charles. MacNaughton. The announ-
•
cement" of this week is the result of
their .efforts.
That there has been need of added
,higher educational facilities in the Hur-
on area has long been recognized. The
availability of the Centralia plant now
has made -it -possible for the province
to meet in part this need.
While there will be general comment
dation for the manner in which thero-
vince has acted in establishing this new
,Centralia school, it must not be regard-
ed Is fullfilling the provincial govern-
ment's obligations with respect to high-
er education in this area.
There continues to be a requirement
in this part of Huron and Perth for the
type of training which is contemplated
by the Community College program.
Centennial ',Creates Community Spirit
There Was wide spread sceptiscism
a year or two ago' when groups in some
areas began pressing civic officials to
plan for the Centennial: Arid when, at
New Year's ,eve last December, even ,
as the bells rang in the Centennial
year, there were those who suggested
there really was no occasion ' to get
ready — that the people'_ woul`dn't be
too interested. a - ..
•
How wrong the sceptics have been
proven. • Almost every weekend now
there are parades in townships, in
towns and villages when citizens ' in
every age- group get together to cele -
brae with enthusiasm. The, results go
far to prove that there lies latent in
every - community — particularly the
smaller centres -- a spirit of co -opera-
tion and willingnesA to work as a
group that requires only a theme and.
the knowhow of a feW to be Iighted.
These parades and celebrations that
we are enjoying — and we think par-
. titularly of those in Hibbert at Dub-
lin, in Hensall and iri McKillop at Win-
throp during recent • days - have
,brought a out the almost total invol-
,'vement ora majority of the citizens of
;those communities. ,In some cases or-
ganizations have been active longer
than iii others and plans were more in-
volved, But regardless of this, what is
importantis that the people are catch-
- ing the Centennial spirit and despite
earlier reticence, are taking steps to
ensure that a3 far as theircommunity
is concerned the Centennial. will not
go unnoticed.
As further events are scheduled• in-
terest undoubtedly will continue • to
;grow and by year's end there will have
been a series- of events that will have
made "a major contribution not only to-
`.wards- marking. Canada's birthday; but
yvhat is even, more important, towards
a growing community spirit in centres
all across Canada, • .
The Bean Vote
Ares, bean growers will have. an op-'
,portunity next week to vote on whether
the Bean Board is to be given authority
tb market all' beans under• an agency
type plan.
There are those. who favor the .move
and 'those who are opposed and under
our democratic way of carrying on our
affairs this' is as it -should be. But dem-
ocracy_ ,only works when each of us
accepts our responsibility. In this case
this 'means that every bean' grower who
is entitled to' vote must study 'the pros
,and cons of the question, particularly
the powers which• it is suggested will
be given the board in the areas of pro-
duction and selling.
What is 'most important is that hav-
ing studied the proposal, having reach-
ed a conelusioft, those who -are entitled
to do so, go out and vote.
Sugar and Spice
-- By Bill Smiley --
GREAT -- JUST GREAT' they call dancing, means '"well,
I think probably the most dif-
ficult relationship to maintain,
at any reasonable level is that
between teen-age "children and
their parents.
Marriage is tough enough, as
you. all know, But at least the
partners, in most cases, are pre-;
pared to bend a little, to give
an Inch, oreven two .if neves•
sary, to compromise when
there's' no other way out.
• Married people do communi-
cate, even though the form
ranges. from grunts .and sighs
to language that would sear the
elarlobes of a saint. They're us-
ually from the same generation
and at worst, can spend•„ hours
running down the government,
the boss; the neighbors, or each
other's families.
I know couples, includingus,
who have been amicably 'hick=,.
ening for anything from two to
six decades. It becomes almost
a game, in whieh you know
every. ploy or gambit of the
opponent. (A ploy is when 'she'
has you dead to rights: A gam-
, bit is when you just might get
away with the story.) -
• .But with teen-agers, you're
' • fighting a losing battle. First

kid gets in, you're on the de-

you're not "an old grump," or-'
completely 'irrational. or "the
strictest parent in town," or an
out-and-out liar who said twelve

Ieaving.the dance, not for be-
ing home. • -
Teen-agers are Like women.
You can't discuss anything with
them, in a logical way. You are
completely baffled' by a series
of irrelevances, nonsequiturs
and such things as "You don't
trust me. That's what's wrong
with you. You don't trust me!"
And they're right:
It's sad to see a family break-
ing up. I suppose it's,inev1table
arid right. But it's sad_ Ours is.
