published the club averages so far determined indicate the success of the campaign it ensured one old chestnut that hat been dragged out in practically every discussion has been the swimming pool we think its about time to realize that this is water under the bridge this one subject has been in the minds of every member of the committee since the community centre idea germinated the policial set by the committee have been de signed to insure that circumstances do not arise which would result in a situation which jfcbnfronted the swimming jxwj committee some years ago the first policy adopted wat a money back guarantee the committee fell it neces sary to mikajhnrtrrnajor point of ihe cam paign if sufficient money it not raised to complete the whole projectbuilding and ice installation all money collected will be re turned lo the individual contributors 100 cents on the dollar the second ma6r point it it is now or never in the light of the money back guarantee net individual should have any reservations about pledging to the best of hit ability there it no point in qualifying your pledge with tome statement such as when the buildings up ill think about it this it not a pledge and this will nol build a community centre the only way the cam- 9 paign will be a success is for every citizen to contribute to the best of his or her ability when ihe canvassor knocks on your door remember he is a neighbor and a friend in terested in the betterment of the community it is not his ob to high pressure you into a pledge you cannot moot only you can deter mine how much you should pledge ho will iry to answer any questions you have and thank you for what you can give meet him with a smile wasted assets in canada at in the united statet one ouvof every three high school students drops out before finishing schooling and starts working some indication of the enormous longrange cost of this appalling annual wastage of potential skills is given in a re cent survey conducted by the united states department of labour the report school and early employ ment experience of youth it based on the records of some 26000 students in seven different states of the u s it shows why the proportion of dropouts is to high and what happens lo them at a ratult after they leave school compared with those students who stay on and graduate with their high school diplomat the evidence is overwhelming that the dropouts earn much less than do the gra duates invariably end up doing unskilled or at bestsemiskilled obs are last liable to gain promotion and advancement and more liable to suffer unemployment if parents and teachers are looking for ammunition with which tcrdeterpramaturejchool laavirtgnriey have a veritable arsenal here nor is this all by any means the delayed penalties of droppingout will soon become even suffer with increased automation mak ing greater demands than ever for skilled and highlytrained workers and as the post war babies enter the labour force in rapidly growing numbers it will be those who are best qualified who will secure the best obs and the best rewards many dropouts indeed will be lucky to find any kind of regular employment economic necessity is often pleaded in extenuation of premature school leaving but this report confirms what many educators have long maintained that this is far loss true than is generally believed it was sel dom given as a reason by those students covered by the report much more common were dissatisfac tion and boredom with school or teacher or both this may be taken by some as in dicating a low i q but while this was indeed oilcn tho case the record shows that many of the early leavers had i q s which were usi as high as those who remained to con tinue their education probably the most potent of all factors influencing the wouldbe drop out is the urge to start earning and spending his or her own money long term advantages are sac rificed in ihe process and both they and the nation are vastly the poorer as a result mpst parents no doubt would say that they- would much prefer that 7heir children should complete their education but they are all too often overborne the solution would seem tolie in the direction of the earliest possible instruction by parent and teacher alike but particularly parent in the inestimable advantages of a finished educa tion if the child is encouraged early enough lo appreciate what is involved if he or she is given a true sense of values and taught to love learning and revere knowledge there will be acceptance from the very beginning of the need to remain at school until gradua tion now is not too soon for parents wilh children of school age to apply themselves to this end sad trend anglers paradise hum t hw photo by cattharr taylor suyat and sfeice are

adult canadians by gallup poll interviewers of those questioned only 26 per cent answered yes compared with 31 per cent in 1953 and 40 per cent in 1945 thus on the baits of this survey thnae out of four adult canadians were not reading a book of any kind in this particular wek suggasting that most if not all of them are regular readers at any time for a country with a literate population this proportion of non- book ntaotors is to high and is rising so fast that one wonder how much higher it can gat true th expernc of canadian libraries in recent years would ar more libraries today in canada than there ever were and more people are making use of them this however has to be elated to the 50 per cent increase in population since 1945 from 12 million lo 18 million it is all too probable that the opinion sur veys are broadly correct more s the pity for all the other diversions that have made their appearance and compete for leisure hours good reading remains the hallmark of the civilized man the fount alike of profitable relaxation and pleasurable anticipation a source of endless sattsfrion and it is as true as ever it was that the man who doesnt read good books has no
