Traces Of Chivalry Still To Be Found By MARGUERITE SMITH Although the Victorian era has long passed, traces of those valiant years still remain. In this nuclear age there are still some "gallant knights" who can be relied upon to aid twentieth century damsels in distress. However, if the situation is not too grave and beyond her handling, then our brave heroes will allow the modern miss to proceed unaided with their blessings. Recently, I consented to play the role of a perilous Pauline, staging a series of incidents to see if Oshawa's modern knights would come to my aid or ignore my plight.

Only one man did not com- ply and I suspect it was be- cause he was deeply engrossed in thought and did not notice me.

A knot relay between the vet- eran scouts and present scouts was most entertaining. Movies and slides were shown that brought back many pleasant memories cf hikes and camps. Mr. Holloway was presented with a scroll, a scrap book and a flight bag in recognition of his service to scouting.

Mr. Ross said her request involved an important family matter. "This is a rugged situation when an employee gives fair notice," he said. The house committee, of which Mr, Ross is a member, will review the situation.

SELVES TO BLAME "If we are as disillusioned as all that, we have only ourselves to blame,' said the director. "There really isn't much wrong with the world except man who is the cause of most of the trou- bles. Man's realities are the imported ideas and forms of expression nourished in a de- liberately produced aesthetic climate."" He said, he did not know which came first, conformity or the desire for conformity. "Certainly this insidious poi- son of conformity is gradually spreading everywhere. Mass production is slowly killing our desire for individualism and originality." said. "If you don't use your crea tive faculties, you will lose them,'"' he warned, He suggested exercising crea- tive imagination in leisure time when not able to do so in daily work, He also urged members to promote and support all the various art activities in the community and get idle minds and hands busy.

Addressing the Weyburn Lib- eral Association, Mr. Argue said Agriculture Minister Hamilton has been promoting factory pro- duction of hogs and eggs and small producers have been "pushed to the wall." He said Mr. Hamilton's policy "of farm credit to the bigger farmers is ruining the small farmers and has resulted in more small farmers beng put out of business during the last six years than at any other similar period in our history." Mr. Argue, member of the last Parliament for Assiniboi, challenged a recent statement by Mr. Hamilton that the Lib- eral platform calling for a $2 floor price for No. 1 wheat would benefit big farmers. and ruin the eastern feeder. The Oshawa Fire Depar'ment| Tuesday handled four routine ambulance calls. There were no| fire calls reported. That suggestion is .alse and ridiculous,"' said Mr. Argue: The floor price would not af- fect wheat's selling price, It was a guaranteed return.
