'He is patron of Young Canada Book Week. The one week of the year dedicated to the special world of books for youngsters. The influence begins early. As soon as a fi" or older member of the family shows interest in reading to a presehooler the first steps iu the world of literature have been taken. Soon the small ones won't be content to hal-, a story stopped just as the hero is about to walk into the robbers' cave or the fairytale princess about to be bewitched. There's the desire to carry on lis own, read-it-yourself plan, to decipher the magic words himself. Itis an essential art oft en as casually acquired las it is later considered. Whatever the attraction of other means of communication, the importance of books and reading will remain. "Books", says Dr. Lamb, "offer an almost infinite variety of topic and point of view; and it is iu books we find - and shail continue to find - the fullest' and most responsible discussion of miny subjects, that are vital to us, both as individuals and citizens." "Quite as important to young people is the importance that books and reading can have in their lives and careers. No school or university can teach thema today the things that ehanged crusacs new knowledge and the ad- vance of technology will be essential for them to know to- morrow." Books and reading will be indispensable to their future. -Oshawa Times In Orono, as elsewhere across the nation, the best source of reading matter for youngsters is the public library. During Young Canada Week, adluits and teachers should encourage the youngsters of this community to delve into the wonderous world of the written word.

Perhaps Mr. Rickaby can ex- plain how a syllogism With a false mnajor premise and a falsej minor premise can have a true conclusion. Mnr. ickaby's reference to the editor's "pontifical column" - as- sumes an infallibility on the edi- tor's part . The very fact that the editor did print his newspaper's name and date upside down proves his fallibility. I concur with the editor that t Educationi is Everybpdy's Busi- ness. Every taxpayer contributes directly, to the educational sys- ten. àMore precisely, the taxpayer is a shareýholder in the business of education, and as a sharehiold- er is entitled toa yearly state- ment of policy, financial success and or failure and hopefully, a dividend.
