Meanwhile in the main room, the music of the Weston RImblerI was swinging the "beginners" of the previous week through their paces. It is I fair commentsry on the increase in enthusiasm this year, when we can state that at this second SquIre Dance of the season, ‘the attendance approximated that of mid-season last year. It is highly probable that before many weeks have gone by, the attendance will necessitate the use of two large rooms. After I half-hour period, these beginners were taken to the music and, guided by committee members and newly-found friends, were sent through their first Square Dance. Throughout the evening they were carefully watched and aided and we have their word for it that they tho- roughly enjoyed themselves and will be back to the next dance, which will occur, due to the prox- imity of Thanksgiving, on Fri- day, October 24 at 8.30 p.m. Mid way during the evening's enjoyments, Mrs. C.

Canadians travelling in United States this summer wn’t see the glittering bargains they used to, says James Johnston in The Fi, nancial Post. There's nothing in the big stores of New York that’s arcing to make their eyes pop out either by their prices or by the varieties offered. What is in the average US store window still looks bright. But so do the items our own retailers are pushing. And in the past few years we've been catching up at a great rate. Now the differences are few..

Canon Henry Roy, Vancouver, is again president of the Chess Federation of Canada. Taking of this office for the second time after many years as President Emeritus of the organization, is a courageous action to take. He is not a young man, and is indeed past his seventieth year. We wish him all the luck in the world, and trust he has obtained a good secretary.

On the other hand the very fact of the inquiry seems to this reader to imply the dismal fact that there is, despite certain mild controls, far too much vul- garity and wdrse on radio, movie and television programs? In like manner, when Dr. Sid- ney Smith asked U. of T. fresh- men a few provocative questions in Convocation Hal the other day, I notice he included the following in a reference to the pupils' ideas regarding freedom of speech: “Should it include freedom to dis- seminate sedition, blasphemy or obscenity?” As regards the interesting sug- gestion that there must be I bud. get of time placed upon the use of the sets; and, specifically, "This is necessary in order that the school pupils will have their rest and time of study". Our people are accustomed to a large mea- sure of self-reliance in this free land, and this indisputably tends to I sensitive dislike for anything savoring of resfimentation or con- trol? Yet it is very obvious that, in msny aspects of modern life- radio, traffic movements, party politics, farm marketing and qua- lity standards, export - import trade, immigration, to mention just a few that come to mind- certain measures of "control" are not only essential and socially de- sirable hut, their absence would do enduring damage to the indi- vidual and community'. It is generally recognised, for example, that if Canada's 1952 grain crops were permitted to flow marketwards uncontrolled, as in earlier years, on an open market or 'devil take the hind- most' basis, the result would be chaos at the primary markets within two or three weekg- while, of course. the price-struc- ture would move and nosedive promptly. I would like. to send in one reader's support 1nd approval of the thought: expressed in your editorial on "Television Control", Ind concur in your conclusion that "Now is the time to control the television sets before they get full control of the people.
