Post Office Departmeflt, Ottawa eci wio t Established in 1938 by R. A. Forrester Oral French In Orono Announcement lias been made by the Orono Public Schuol Board 0f the teaching of oral Prencli in grades 5 and 6 this coming school terni. This, we believe la a commend- able move by the Board who are opcrating tlie course under the reguliations of the Ontario Department 0f Education. t These regulations require that written permission be obtain- ed from the parents of those wishing to ake oral frenchi in the two grades. Miss Pemberton of the Orono eaching staff is quali- fied Vo each grade 5 and 6 oral frencli but lias not the quali- fications, at present, to teach hs course in the higher grades This is unfortunate at this time but no doulit will lie re- medied before anotherý year so that grades 7 and 8 can a- vaAli themselves of this subject in the Orono sehool. The teaching of frenchi in public schools lias met, ln some cases, with great objections and this is the purpose of reeeiving first, permission from the parents of the students. Surely there could be little doublt that to establsli a vo- cabulary ini frenchi at an early age would only assist greatly ini aking frenchi at the secondary level of education. A stu- dent ini Hîgh School must take frenchi if hie or she is to, pur- sue the five-year acedemic course, which the great majority ôf students are presently taking. There is possibly no time in a childs life that they will learn new words easier than ai the public school level. The Orono Board is to lie oommended in their action and may we hope that within a year that tlie qualifcatons of the teachiing staff at the school will bie able to provide this caurse to students o0'f grades 7 and 8, those preparing to en- ethe highier level of education in Higl School. From the Oshiawa Tînres Move To, Larger UÙnit We have f requently expressed the view that the pre- sent municipal structure in Ontario is obsolete; municipal boundaies are archale, and must lie redrawn to encompass more logical economic and geographle regiQns. Now provin- cial governments are inclining to the same opinion, promo- ting the consolidation 0f municipal governments into larger units. . The Financial Post gives the argument a twist by sug- gesting that the provinces shcaild apply, the reasoning in favour of consolidation o hemselves. Says the Post: This idea may well raise storms 0f provincial protest. But it is not witliout mer'it and deserves some serlous dtbate. Merging a f ew provincial jurisdlctions may be the only an- swero a number of the probl'ems now afflicting the provin- cial level of goverament. There could lie many adrantages o the: Citizens 0f theý midý,west ,for example, in combining Manitoba, Saskàtclie- wan and Albierta into one admltsnistration. Resource mianagement could lie considerably better if it were on a regional instead 0f a provincial liasis. Develop- ment 0f tlie waterresources of the Nelson River basin*is a matter affecting all Vlree provinces. Egulations affecting mining, forests and fishing are frequently complicated by boundary prolleras. And the overhead cost of education and welfare might rise less rapidly if the admlnistrative appar- atus could lie used to serfý the whole reglon. Simlar econ- omic arguments apply o the Atlantic area. Should a merger movement ever get under way ln eltlier the east or the west, loud partisan cries aboutt preserv- ing the historic pattern of Cafladian developmen would no doubt filI the air, But we are ackling a number of extremely difficluit problems affectIng the constitution now -- includlng birulturalismn. This, ndeed, may lie the beât time to ponder wliether the samne number of governments necessary in the liorseýand-buggy days, is now essential to peace, order, good governmient and econonitc progress in the days of jet and telex.

Currelly reserved1 judgement in the suit by the Gan- araska Region Conservation Auth- ority for an overdue levy of $200f from the village of Newvcastle. i The reservation of judgement was made, subjeci to the' right of the authority's counsel, Claudej Fitzgiffon, to file a cofy 0of thet Order in Councilcreating the en- larged conservation area last year, which, brought Newcastle within the area. E.R. Lovekin, counsel for New- castle contended that to merely mention the number of the Order- in-Council, 903-62, passed Mvarch 15, 1962, was not sufficient evidencpe that it existed and that the author- ity should have produced a copy to legally verify its existence to the judge. Mr. Lovekin 'also contended that there was no proof given in evi- dence that the Newcastle. council had received notification of the meeting where the vote xvas taken to enlarge the area 0f the conser- vation authority to include the vil- lage. Mr. Fitzgibbufln said there hadi been sufticieflt oral evidence of< the councýl liaving received the notice prior to the meeting, and criticizeci their failure to reply toq the notice or any subsequent letters. "Newcastle council seemns to have been somewhat like an os- trich in nature," lie said. "They seem to have tliought that if they just ignored an annoyance long enougli it wouid probably go aWay." "The council may have 'been aware that there was a meeting of some kind being held, but the point is were tliey aware that the meet- ing was the only meeting on the subjeet and that a final vote was_ to be taken at the meeting," said Mr, Lovelvin. Commenting on the case as lie declared his intention to reserve bis judgemnent, Judge Lurrelly said "I don't think that either side is very concerned about the $200, but that tliey are both concerned about theyearls o follow as they wil be affected by this case.>' More Growera Freelancing Nine freelance growers of flue- cured tobacco have been joined by at least tWO more in plantîng a 1963 crop.
