Land Uses Before starting to plan, a community must first take into consideration the seven land uses. If anyone of these uses is neglected Mr. Pearso warned then the planning area is beîng neglected. Foremost among land uses is agriculture and this is the use most often neglected. Mr. Pearson told how land around the Niagara Peninsula is con- sidered to be the best in East- ern Canada for fruit growing but growers are seriously con- sidering selling because of the major highway route ta be built in this district. Second is resident land use and this refers especially to ur- ban development where walk- ing and driving facilities, schools, and other services must be considered. Since everyone has a right ta start a business, commercial land use is another part of planning. Failure to study com- mercial land use has trapped many communities Mr. Pearson said, Industrial land use can also lead ta trouble. Whereas fac- tories were once built two or more staries high, the presert vogue is that of ene-storey fac- tories spread eut over a wide area. In regards to where a factory should be located Mr. Pearson advised that the func- tion o! the factory should be considered and this function shouid in turn be related ta the surrounding land use. "A healthy sign of concern for the future is the numbeýc of parks, playgrounds and public buildings." the speakerý pointed out. Anything that brings people together is bene- ficial ta the community. The final land use is circula- tion which refers ta the roads and streets. If these are poorly laid out and no thoughts are given to future roads, the whole town's roads and streets could lead ta a severe bottleneck. Legisiation Requirements After studying the land uses it is necessary ta advance ta the second step b! planning which is legisiation. Chie! guide in planning as set up by legisiation is the Planning Act. This act was not drawn up on personal whims but is in real- ity a by-product of the experi- ence o! the forefathers who settled in the* province. The Planning Act calls for the setting up o! a planning area and a planning board ta study the area in question which may be a single municipality or sev- eral joined together. An officiai plan or concep- tion of how the planning board niembers hope the community will levelop in the terms of the seven land, uses must be presented to the Department o! Planning and Development for approval. "This officiai plan is just an idea and ta put teeth into the plan, you must pass a zoning by-law," the speaker pointed out. *'This plan may change but it will protect what you have in your respective zones." An important section of the Planning Act is Section 24 which allows councils ta pa£s an area o! subdivision control. Through this section ail parcels o! land under 10 acres must have a subdiviâon plan before being sold.

Urban-Rural Relations Before closing Mr. Pearson asked that, a clearer under- standing be made in the rela- tionship of agriculture and ur- ban people, "It must be under- stood that the urban and rural people must work together and the plight of the present day farmer considered. The farm society is flot as it was 20 ta 30 years ago." The speaker was introduced' by Garnet Rickard and thanked by Ken Morris for the cohesive and coherent manner in which he delivered the speech. The hockey draw was won by two of the guests, Bruce Ashton and Brenton Rickard. A one-year perfect attend- ance pin was presented ta Ken MHighlight of the evening 'was the rousing sing sang led by Alan Strike and pianist Dave Morrison.

Guide Group Plans Bridge On Tuesday, January 8, nine members of the Local Associa- tion of the Girl Guides held their monthly meeting at the Lions Centre with Mrs. Len Lu- cas presiding in the chair. Thes greater part o! the even- ing was spent in discussing plans and arrangements for their forthcoming dessert lunch- eon, te be held on the 26th of January, the proceeds of which will enable the Association tû carry on their support of the Girl Guides. The conveners f or this luncheon are Mrs. Nelson Os- borne, social cdnvener; Mis. Ralph Ames, food; Mrs. William James, publicîty; Mrs. Robert Kent, decorating. These girls along, with '-heir cammittees, have planned a very enjoyable afternoon o! cards, and have arranged many iovely prizes ta be presented ta somne of the more fertunate guests at the close of the affair. 1956 Prosperity Unequalled In his year-end review, Han. Milton F. Gregg, Minister o! Labour, stated that for mest of the Canadian people 1956 was ai year o! unequalled prosperity. Total output and income con- tinued ta expand at almost record rates throughout the year, following the sharp increase ini economic activity in 1955. 1 Not only were these increases in income shared by an inicreas-1 ing number of people, but the income per capita also rose sub- stantially. There were plenty o! job opportunities in mast parts o! the country throughout muchj of the year and working con- ditions generally continued tai iraprove. In concluding, the Minister pointed out that the general emPloyment outlook for 1957 was good, but hat seasonal un- eînployment xvould be with us again as it has been every year. He xvas referring ta unemploy- ment which xvas the result o! seasonal factors rather than theJ result o! changes in general' econornic activity.1 He stated that extensive e!- j ferts had been made in the past 1 few years ta increase the amount o! work available during the winter manths with an important part o! the efforts being made in carnpaigns erganized on the local level' in communities al across the country. He urged ail Canadians ta actively sup- port these carnpaigns this winter by having as much work as Possible done during the winter i months when men and materials were more readily available.
