impressive growth perhaps it comes as no shock to those in clpser touch with municipal statistics but the fact that hallons population hnd climb od to 106017 surprised us it wv not too many years ago when the population was well below half that number and the speed with which one of the provinces smallest counties iwa bcon developing is a little dizzying in fact in the 1951 census less than a decade ago the population of hal ton was totalled at 44003 and that was quite n jump up over the 1941 census that showed a totil hilion population of 285 is probably the most localized application to illustrate the sudden growth that historians will oil o boom is to look at our own municipality in 1901 iho population of acton was 1484 just 50 years later it had about ctouhl eel to 2880 but then between 1951 and 1959 it had added a similar number at prople appioxhtiately in less than one tenth iho time then too if you ore to lake the popula tion of the throe north holton urban centres you find more evidence of growth in 1901 the population of acton georgetown and milton was 4169 by 1951 il had grown to over doublemliil at 1 7r3 compare that 50 yeir period then wilh iho current period of loss linn 10 years and you find the population up two and a hilf times to 1 0 000 georqeiown s increase in population has boon comparabte lo those communities in the scullt of the county tl had a similar doubling of population in the fnl 50 years of this century hut it hu tripled in si2c be tween 1951nd 1959 tlio rjrowlh ol ihe county s population is supported by nrowtli in each ol ihe county municipalities on ihe surface ihe increase in population rem 11003 in 1951 lo 106 01 in 1959 seens phenomenal and yel it iv been the nrpwlh in eirn ol iho munici palities that has contributed to the impressive lolil meeting place of nations october 24 marks the 14th anniversary of the united nations an organisation horn and maintained of necessity in a world where it is becoming more and more apparent that the conference table must be ttenieetinq place of nations rather than the battlefield conadi has i a ken an active part in thu general assembly of the united nations since the signing of ihe charter in san fran cisco the 14 years have not been entirely smooth nor has the world been without its wars since the organization was formed hut there have been no global conflicts to nntch either of the great wars it is perhaps an irt dication that while wore talking were not fighting willnn two years of the end of world war ii however il was apparent thai the ussr would not permit the functioning of the un security council at the sime lime the soviet maintained armed forces through out europe blocked western attempts to reach a peace settlement there and used com munisi parties in other countries lo sabotage efforts at economic recovery and political co operation in defence against tins potential of soviet agression ihe countries of the at lanhc communily took special collective men sures under the u n charter which resulted in foimation of ihe north atlantic treaty or gimation progress of the united nations ippoirs slow lo us in our lime yet ms surctss is not to

at lln conference table should university education be free should the milkman s son have the same op pcrtunity to enjoy the benefits of college as the son of the stockbroker yes is the opinion of many canadian though not too many have said it aloud but now it is being said more strongly by more people the latest voice is a big one the canadian home and school and parent teach er federation which represents 307 000 par ents across the nation the 1 959 annual meeting of ihe federation resolved to pro- mole public acceptance of the idea of free university tuition for all academically qualif led children of canadian residents the federal ion urges that university edu cation should be free but not that il should be universal admission lo college must be controlled the question who should go lo college and for what purpose is asked in an article by margaret cowan m the october issue of canadian home and school maga line here are some of the points made the greatest untipped resource in can ada is rural youth we lake greit pride m the vistntss of our resources and our high stand ard of living yel we are filling miserably m the development of the richest resource we have our youth we are spending mil lions educating our children through the sec ondary school level but most of those who have the des rr and ability to go o univer sity are prevented by lack of finances we bring them up so far but tor some reason seem to be unv llmg to help them to the top the rate of futures in first and second yeir university i urmecessanly hiph and we cannot affod the luxuiy of keeping univer sny places for young people who are there lust tor the rde students whose mrel genee and aptitude combined show no pes ubiliiy of successful completion of the course one in ih rreen of our college ce yoeh s a right or privilege going to university at present and mmy who are going are not filled for it mmy students are sent lo college by their parents merely lor soci il or mail rmonial reasons universities sbduld be so crowded by the able and willing tli if there should be no rocm for the un lblp or the unwilling there should be more youiiripeople in college with jjmtna bucks the universities want the young people with lalenl and those with imbition ihose wilh analytical power and those with staying power ihose who will think and those who will study of course ihe identification of those wanted types is not always eisy students c innct be selected by a mechanical rating of intelligence and m disregard of other factors of character and achievement brilliance in intelltcl is not llways accompan led by character moral fibre or stability many average students who work hard get more out of college and more out of liter life than more gtfied confreres many men
