The Editor, Dear Sir: Would you care to publish the following on behalf of myself, and several of my friends who took a iike view of the 'St. Patrick's ance sponsored by the "Club 15"7 on Mardi l6th? We shold like to take this op- portunity of tossing a few liter- ary bricks in the direction of the executive of the Club 15 dance.

On behalf of ail those coupleg who were made fools of, (includ- ing ourselves) we'd like to air the following argument as it was pre- sented to us by the verbal boun- cers at the entrance to this ex- tremely exclusive afair: (1) After the invitation was presented with the money-"I'm sorry, we can't let you in if you haven't tickets." (We noticed a sizeable number of two dollar bis on the table, evidence that a chosen number had aiready been admitted who had not previously purchased tickets, or who prob- Your Rexail pharmacist ihever "Iguesses"l when f illhxg a Prescription.

(2) "I'm sonry, but the floor is already crowded, we can't let any more in." And in the next breath -"There are stiil people to come who have tickets." (We'd 'like to know whether this overfiow was accommodated in the gymnasiuin, since the auditorium was already filled to capacity?) We can understand the turning away of people who did not even have invitations, but beyond that, we are unable to see justification of the attitude taken. When it comes to running a dance, you've got to hand it to the High School kids. Their At Home is equal to the Club 15 affains in every res- pect, and certainly displays their better knowledge of etiquette by virtue of the fact that a writen in- vitation is sufficient evidence that you are wanted at their dance, and will not be browned off at the door like a social outcast. We give the executive of this club credit, however, for being tactfui enough to wait until their last dance before puiling this very original stunt. There's nothing to be done about it now, but the "Club 15" lias become somewhat of a joke in the public eye! A Reader. New Hospital Board (Continued fromn Page 1) Mayor C. G. Morris moved that the secretary write a letter of con- gratulation expressing apprecia- tion of splendid services of Miss Lumby and lier staff. It neceived unanimous acclaîm. Ladies' Auxiliary Mns. A. R. Virgin presented the report of the Ladies' Auxiliary wbich set forth the continuing regular meetings lield by the 23 members. Their concern was in keeping supplies up to standard requirements, of rendering aid to the staff and numerous other sup- porting functions including gifts at Christmas time. Supplies were acknowledged fromn vanious or- ganizations, including the Red Cross and the Enniskillen outpost. Public support was ackno wledged for funds which permitted neces- sary expenditures and lef t a bal- ance on band of $398.54. Finance Treasurer Ray Dilling, unable to submit a final balance sheet since outside auditors liad not yet submitted theirs, gave an intenim survey showing total receipts as siiglitly in excess of $30,000 with expenditures which wili probably add up to a smail deficit wben al bills are in. The figures did not include the building fund. A motion carried amending date of the annuai meeting which in fu- ture wiil take place after neceiv- ingjhe officiai audit at the eaniiest date foliowing Mardi 1, of each year. Year's- Review Chairman Mitchell reviewed work donc by the retiring board, which included a meeting witli the anchitect wbo advised that, due to scancities of materials and labor, work should not com- mence on tic new building until early in 1947. Meantime tic drive for funds would be intensîfiedi under the new board. Witli tic amounts on hand for the building1 fund together with pledges frofi Darlington and prospects fromn other municipalities, including a grant> hopefuily expected fromn the United Counties, lie couid se in sight at least $150,000, whici of course inciuded local' deben- tures of $100,000. Discussion In the generai discussion it was learned tiat the services of cor- porate finance promoters could be secured in a drive for funds undertaken on a percentage basis. But tuis will be left for later dis- cussion as the new board gets un-i der way. Veny definitely it was1 brought out tiat the oniy way1 successfuily to get ready for 19471 was vigorously and immediately1 to organize. There willI pe no pa-1 tience for temporizing and the1 public sbould be kept fully in- formed of ail board meetings.

The disreputable looking papers had to be sent out to subscribers because tliey were aJ.ïeady printed on one side from an eanlien four pages and it wouid have taken bours to ne-run them.

Fees and miscel- laneous grants add up to a few hundreds more with the town absorbing the balance as set forth above. Board Letter In the letter to council the sec- retary of the Board of Education relieves the picture by stating that the added costs include $4,- 000 in salary increases for teacli- ers together witi repairs and equipment neglected during war years, as affecting the public school. There wiii be no refund from the board on debenture charges. Costs for the Higli Scbool are up owing to hiring one additional teacher. It was pointed out that last year the town was not asked for any money and the board tumned over 70 per cent of de- benture charges, but none will be turned baçk this year. Salary schedules were brouglit into line as per the generai practîce fol- lowing establishment of the 50 per cent provincial grants.

In- surance of $7,500 in two equal policies was auÉhorized as cover- age of plant and tquipinent of the internment camp buildings. Re- ceipt for $7,040 was-robtived from War Assets in acknowvledgem'2t of payment made by the corpora- tion. Canadian Club (Continued from Page One) weaith of Nations, Dr. Çody drew attention td the derivatives of fneedom and justice whicli have shaped our course. The contri- butions of ancient Greece were the philosophies of freedom and truth. The Roman Empire adapt- ed these into codified laws and or- ganized government, while the Chiristian faith leavened the whole witli the teachings of goodness, brotherliness, lielpfulness the fun- damentals of moral conduct. These we have inherited and they have formed the basic foundations of western civilizaýion. Our con- cern is to relate tliem to our own case in these material times. One common fact may be ac- cepted, said the speaker; that any nation, to build a worthy civiliz- ation, must have food in heaith- fui measure to that end. Our position lias been one of abund- ance featured with wastefulness. Our case differs from that of Bni- tain and lier neigliboring Euro- pean nations. We have food at our door; on the other liand, Bni- tain has had to maintain a mer- chant marine to transport lier food and supply lier neighbors. War's destruction lias now placed themn in a position of great austerity with dire rationing to be endur- ed until the balance is restored. Eliminate Waste Another element was emplia- sized in our prodigality and ne- giect in respect of our natural resources, the products of our for- ests, mines, land and fisheries. Telling of bis journey to James Bay by canoe and plane some years ago, Canon Cody pictured the areas denuded of forests by fire, another element of wastefui- ness we must ail deem inexcus- able. Aside from this came war with its enormous depredations of metals, timber and depietion of agnîcuiturai soul. These inroads on our material resources formed a challenge for the future in which science must play a great part, particularly forest and soul conservation. Great Resources Touching broadiy upon Can- ada's natural nesources, the speak- er told of the extension of the Mesaba iron-ore field into the Lake Superior district, which we are only now tapping, and of the vast, unlocked minerai resources in the fissures of the Laurentian shield. With the swift develop- ment of communications mader possible by modern aircraft and the science of geophysics, thene remain immense possibilities for1 utilization of matenials funcla- mental to building a ýorthwhile civilization. We are blessed, too, with an invigorating, healtlifui climate, a stimulus to work and play, a factor also that lias elimin- ated in great degree a race prob- lem peculiar to our nearest neigh- bon. Communications Brouglit vividly into view by Canon Cody were our blessings in modern communications, a un- ifying factor in our national life. He traced the early days when tediously our forefathers tnavelled by canoe and bateaux, next by sail and stage coach, then the steam locomotive, finally the mo- tor car and plane. He sketched, too, the vast developments of Hy- dro. These, with the potentials ahead of us add up to a super- abundance of ahl the elements to create and extend a worthwhile civilization. But in final perspective, the question posed was, what kînd of people are we to accept this great heritage? How can' we build this nation into a whole, unified, national life? It was shown that one great barrier has been geo- graphy. With five, main geo- graphical divisions, the Maritimes, the lake and river basin of On- tario and Quebec, the Laurentian hinterland, the Prairies, and fin- ally British Columbia, the tend- ency has been one of a North- South pull, rather than East-West. Improved communications have operated to restore the balance and we are beating geography at its own game. Canon Cody traced for a mo- ment the "pull" exerted by our neighbor nation with 10 times our population, speaking the same tongue, infiuencing us with their papers, magazines, radio, films and tourist travel, ahl wel- comed, wholly to be desired as kindred peoples, but, he suggest- ed, we can maintain our distinc- tive heritage by cultivating our traditional role of acting as a bridge between our motherland and our great and closest neigh- bor.1 Achieve Unity In conclusion Canon Cody touched upon the factors that militate against national unity. With two basic races predomin- ating, we flnd the language bar- rier of French and English at the -root of a continuing misunder- standing. This can be overcome by placing education on a more fundamental plane, by inter- province visits, by acceptance of the fact that there can be unity in diversity. To speak frankly in a way to be understood is one effective way of serving mutual urrderstanding. We have as- well the confiicts between the provincial and the federal governments. There was menit in having government not too remote from the place where people are governed, yet many lean to the opinion that improve- ment miglit be effected by yield- ing to geography, for instance, a consolidation of the Maritimes and of the Prairies for unitary administration. But all these, in summation, ail these factors of geography and division will be found soluble as time leads us in- to ways of achieving a more worthwhile civilization. Recapitulation Canon Cody recapitulated that food was basic to the central theme of his discourse. Canada's course is one of the preservation of balances as between the basic races, between provinces and do- minion, between labor and agri- culture. And it ail goes back to the problem of character. Our future and the future of the world is bound up in that all- abiding attribute, character. The two great things that will bring peace, prosperity and understand- ing are research and religion, the one material, the other moral. The speaker was thanked by the president in behaîf of the many members present for his generosity in coming and for his splendid, inspiring message. An- nouncement was made that the nominating committee would be prepared to submit names for the annual election of officers at the next meeting which will be ad- dressed by W. D. Johnston, whose subi ect will be announced at a later date. Hu B. EVANS CARTAGE Screened Sand for Plastering or Brick-Laying; Gravel; Fi; Loam and Manure. We Have t!1 You Name t!
