certainly we might well a young countrygive some serious thought and endeavour to gain some better understanding of the educational needs and trends that play such an importanrrole in the lives of all canadians the years of education in our schools and the years that follow immediately after leaving schools are indeed formative years in a bul letin issued by the teachers federation themes for the various days of this week are suggested which do cover many phases and draw attention to the importance of the educational program of our schools under these headings comes the school emphasizes spiritual values develops health the school needs the support of parents and public needs qualified teachers needs ad equate finances yes the schools need the help and understanding of all of us not next week but every week aptly the leaflet has the caption the school builds the nation truly the schools are builders of the nation bit to build their best they require the help and sympathetic aid and financial support of everyone the years of the past have seen real advancement in educat ional trends the present years and the years ahead will undoubtedly see mnny more changes and improvements where are food prices going uhats the food price trend now ayear ago says a financial post article by b t huston editor of cnnndian grocer you were sure of being right in forecasting n fairly gen eral upward swing today its not so easy the threatened dis turbance to world peace again and rearmament programs mean strong government demands on production and tendency to higher markets so does the big national income due to high wages an dincreascd government spending thats the situation today to counteract that theres increased product ion of foods not only on this continent but in europe crops in canada generally have been good they would have been better had it not been for the droughts m the east and floods in the west so barring another hot war we should see a good mum price reductions but in general the easing of prices is sure to be general for the balance of this year and early next finanow of onuriou municipalities that very interesting volume which gives the municipal statistics for ontario for 1047 has just come to hand it is a very complete summary of the various municipalities for the year in tuct it is so complete that its manv columns and figures may proe bewildering to the average citizen who glances at a copy and does not immediately find what interests him at first glance a more casual perusal will how ever shou that everything is er much in order and not too difficult to find in spite of the multitude of columns and figures the volume answers almost cer question one would ask about the financial condition of ontarios municipalities looking at halton towns e note tlrar population figures for the five are acton 2167 milton 2218 georgetown 3080 burlington 4u and oakville solu in the matter qf collection of arrears of taxes the best results are shown in georgetown which reports no tax arrears acton had 392 in arrears burlington 3281 milton 4035 and oakville 14206 milton is in the best position for debenture indebtedness the total of debt tor milton stood at 10805 this will all have been retired by i6s2 acton has 4015 debenture indebted ness or 2875 per capita oakville has 57388 or 1 14 per capita burlington n 82s0oj debenture owing or 10041 per capita george town has a total debt of 470157 or 15403 per capita these arc but a few of the tlgurcit that can be gleaned from this volume and which those interested in municipal affair will cttoy keck ing out they aro quoted onlyas a sample taken at random to show how thoroughly the affairs or ontarios municipalities are given to those who may desire to secure the information mle dont intend reading the volume from cover to cover but as a reference it is indeed in valuable a town that alnw at friendllnem according to the recordnews of smiths falls ontario hat tow is regarded by many to he populated by an unfriendly folk a de cline of friendliness haying been experienced there since the conclusipn of world war ii not so long ago there was a timo when a per son walking down town could call by name everyone he or she met there are almost con tinuous changes in the residents owing to the people going ami coming thus giving the new comer little chance to get acquainted to offset siich a feeling of aloofness among new arrivals what is called a welcome wagon service has been organized and of the results the recordnews says this service certainly has proven a real ambassador of good will and friendliness in many cases even though its great work may not be generally known throughout the town the moving van or truck or whatever convey- a7i isscarcelyniff thebiockrwhenthcwel come wagon arrives at the newly occupied house apartment or rooms gifts from various merchants and organizations literature des cribing the town and its facilities and n friendly word of welcome from the driver of the wagon makes the newcomers feel that at last he or she is amongst friends this wel come wagon service has been made possible through the cooperation and support of mer chants and business men after telling of the work done by the churches the article concludes perhaps the apparent lack of friendliness on the part of older residents to newcomers and we have received several complaints about same is an extcrnnl manifestation of the towns growing pains but unless citizens seek and apply effect ive remedies the disease may become both chronic and malignant residents in general have an important role in the matter of making smiths falls the friendly town to its new comers it is not an uncommon thing for towns to be charged with nn apparent lack of friendli ness as in the case of smith falls but not every town makes such a thorough effort to overcome that feeling as the recordnews says the change in personnel of the population due to any considerable influx of newcomers due to growth with a consequent loneliness among the new arrivals may result in the de velopment of a feeling that is best alleviated by an incrcasedtricndlincss on the part of those already well acquainted with the estab lished citizens and their ways rewillwtioiih ol acion tmocrl back in wl lukxi from ox lawo sf o vr imai of ttiurxuy nov is ims hiim- minrlp iia lxxmltiir wlntoly itlxonu will tinw
