Teacher Couldn’t Teach Eskimos Road To The Isles

Innis Campbell of Greenfield is one teacher who had plenty to tell his pupils when school opened this September. A teacher at St. Ann’s School in Montreal, Innis spent six weeks of the summer vacation working on the DEW line in Canada’s far North, where, he reports, he tried to teach the Eskimos to sing ‘Road to the Isles’, with a notable lack of success.

A photograph of the young man, surrounded by his class on opening day, appears in the September 4th issue of The Montreal Star.

One Alexandrian Killed, Four Escape As Car Struck By N.Y.C. Train Near Cornwall

Garfield MacDonald, 24, Fatally Injured Tuesday Evening Near Cornwall As Group Returning from Work On Seaway An Alexandria man, father of two, was fatally injured

.and four other Seaway workers from this town escaped with shock and bruises Tuesday evening, when their ear was struck by a New York Central train near Cornwall Centre, some four uniles northwest of Cornwall. -•

Dead is Garfield MacDonald, 24, of Lot 13 - 3rd Kenyon. He is a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Malcolm MacDonald. His mother died last Spring.

Escaping injury when the train ^ «truck the rear of the' car were fellow Seaway workers — Alex .Spooner, Rene and Joseph La- combe, brothers, and a cousin, 'Raymond Lacombe, who reportedly was driver of the car. The car was ripped open from a point above the rear wheels.

Tire group whs returning to Alexandria following their day’s work on the -power project when the accident occurred about 6 pm. where the Cornwall Centre road crosses the tracks of the New York Central railroad. There are no automatic warning signals, accord- ing to reports, and the view of the railway tracks is obscured by bush up to a point very close to the rail line.

Sitting on the left side of the real- seat of the car, MacDonald was the only one injured. He was rushed to Hotel Dieu, Cornwall, by ambulance and died about two hours later of multiple injuries.

Word of the tragic accident reached relatives and friends here soon after, and the later news of MacDonald’s death was received. With regret by many friends. His wife Is the fprm^ Ann McCoSham of Prince Edward Island, and there are two children, Linda, 2, and Bernard, one year old.

Two brothers and five sisters also survive: Brian, of Brockville, at present stationed on DEW line; Murray, of Toronto; Louise, Mrs. John A. Shago, Glen Roy; Sheila, Mrs. Guy Amisson, Deschenes, •Que.; (Anna, Mrs. 'Steve Dembicki, and Miss Cleo MacDonald, Mont- real; Elinor, Mrs. Frank Carney, of Providence, RX

He has filled at one time or other almost every teaching position in school or college, in preaching and in adminis- tration. Always in demand as a lecturer, his work of predilection has been the conducting -of closed retreats for the laity, the diocesan •clergy and more especially for religious communities from Anti- gonish to Victoria and- down the.

Campaign In Aid Of The Blind To Open Here On September 24th

Williamstown Lair Set Lor Next Week

Ontario's oldest livestock show is again an attraction next week when Williamstown Fair is held Tuesday and Wednesday. Fair weather is forecast and officiais report advance entries in the vari-

ous classes most encouraging.

Alexandria residents will be can- vassed for aid to the blind in the annual CNIB drive, which gets un^ derway here September 24. The annual campaign for funds is now going on in most centres of Glen- garry, and the date for the opening of the local drive was picked at a meeting in the agricultural rooms here Tuesday.

Results from last year’s campaign were very good, and committee members were hopeful that residents would again give gener- ously. There will be an appeal made from all churches on behalf of this great work, which seeks not only to rehabilitate the blind, but to prevent blindness. An extensive programme of eye services is being undertaken, particularly in this area, reports George Patrick, field secretary for the ONIB in this dis-

trict. There are free eye examinations

for school children, and glasses are provided for those who need them. Families also get financial assistance if eye surgery is necessary. All these services are free, as are the services for those who have lost their sight.

The latter includes assistance in finding work for the heads of families who have lost their sight, or for young people who want to be independent despite their handi- cap; the provision of Braille books from the large CNIB library for those who miss the world of literature, and aid to housewives who can learn to perform their household duties with the coach- ing of a CNIB home teacher.

The CNTB, says Mr. Patrick, is the only organization in Canada able to cany on these programmes.

Teachers Enough ’Ail teaching positions in the in-

spectorates of H. L. Welch and J. A. Alex Deschamps of Alex- andria, have been filled, and both inspectors report that satisfactory arrangements have been made in all schools to accommodate the pupils.

(In Mr. Welch’s public school inspectorate, one school — No,. 12 Loehiel, the Glen — is being closed and pupils in' thaï?' area will go to- the nearest school which can take them in. Mr. Welch said that he has heard of no overcrowdihg in any of his schools.

Mr. Deschamps reports that there are some overly - heavy classes in a few schools of his bi- lingual inspectorate, and that pro- posals for hew classes will more than likely be put before their school (boards during the coming term.

A new secretary, Mrs. D’Assise Menard of Alexandria, has -hem • engaged for Mr. Deschamps’ office.

The Glengarry News, Alexandria, Ontario, Thursday, September 13th, 1956

Owed To The Teacher It’s not often we turn to the columnists

for copy. But in a recent column, Jack Scott, whose column is carried in The Citizen, echoed some of the thoughts we have long held on the teaching profession. Vancouver columnist Scott was discoursing on the 'build-up to the first day of school for his little girl, the opening of a new phase in her life.

And we liked his concluding lines when he wished he might go with her and meet the teacher. This is what he thought he might say :

■“I know that you’re underpaid in this job. There must be days when you’re tempted to just leave and do something, easier and probably for more money.

“When that happens I wish you would remember that there axe millions of us relying on you more than you can ’

know. Whatever you get from your job, never forget.that it is one of the great professions. Be proud to teach. So much depends on you. Please remember that in the mornings when you’re going to school.’'1

Many a parent probably has much the, same thoughts as his or her child takes that first step into our school system. We are depending so much on the teacher for synr pathetic interest in, and an intelligent ap- proach to, our children’s development into sound adulthood. And yet how seldom do we tell teachers how worthwhile a job we think they are doing, how important we rate their profession.

If they had that reassurance from more of us more often, and if we would see their salary schedules more in relation to what the laborer is drawing down today, perhaps there would not be so serious a shortage of qualified teacher in our school system.

Toward The Elimination Of Differences There was more than one interesting ad-

dress at the convention of the Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association at Murray Bay. But, undoubtedly, in the minds of most of the weekly editors assembled there, we venture to say, some thoughts expressed by the president of the Association of French-speaking weekly newspapers of Canada, were of more moment than others.

Aime Gagne, publisher of Le Lingot, of Arvida, Que., was welcoming the C.W.N.A. to his home province and' we recall these lines from his address:

“I would prefer to try to dispel'Some- what the opinion expressed in certain quarters, regarding Quebec and its people. In opposition to the thinking of certain people who are not too familiar with our part of the country, Quebec does not wish to separate itself from the rest of Canada, and remains firmly a part of its greatness . . .”

“The French weeklies, like your papers, use every endeavour to- draw the bonds of the national potentialities closer in order to •help the development of Canada.^ I am strongly of the opinion that wt editors of both English and French weeklies can do a great deal in this respect. We are certainly in a position to mould the national spirit. We have a great responsibility to work towards the elimination of differences of opinion detrimental to the safeguarding of

Is The Gardens’ Is it simply evolution, the television age,

the era of spectator sport now being con- centrated into the 21-inch square oT~ the parlor video set? Or has Alexandria simply gone to pot as a centre of sport?

Our fine Glengarry Gardens is on the way out despite the sacrificing efforts of a few sportsmen to keep hockey alive and provide facilities for our youngsters to learn and enjoy this great sport. Our children will probably be back to the use of open air school rinks or playing shinny on the lake ice this winter. But is there any apparent awareness among too many of us that we are losing a community asset which might have contributed much to the health and enjoyment and well-being of our citizens of tomorrow?

We use that phrase~“might have”, because we have the feeling the arena never was exploited to its full capabilities, that it never received the local support it de- served. True, a few sportsminded people put themselves out to foster minor hockey in town and district, some faithful fans supported lacrosse in its dying days and tried to keep hockey alive, too. But the vast majority were not Gardens-conscious. and we venture to say half of our citizens never saw the interior of our arena.

The life of the Glengarry Gardens has been a checkered and not too happy one mainly due to the fact it has never received the box-office support that was expected. That it was appreciated by a considerable number was clearly shown by the sale of shares towards its rebuilding following the destruction of the original Gardens by fire. But that rebuilding was practically a work of faith, accomplished without sufficient funds, and had not the preseitt owners come to the rescue to supply needed capital, there might not have been ice, even the natural variety; last winter.

Artificial ice was installed in the hope that the longer season would bring . in enough added revenue to make the Gardens pay its way. But last winter was particularly discouraging. The fans stayed away in droves, the weatherman was kind to

this national spirit. In my opinion, it is only through a true ‘Canadian Spirit’ that we can achieve real greatness.”

We agree wholeheartedly with these thoughts expressed by Mr. Gagne and we know that many editors from all parts of the country were equally impressed with his message. We know, too, how these fellow editors look forward to their infrequent convention visits to “la belle province”, how much they enjoy the hospitality they receive there and how estimable they find the French-Ganadian people and their cus- toms.

As Mr. Gagne pointed out: We (the weekly editors) are certainly in a position to help mould the national spirit. And weekly editors, in our opinion, could work effectively toward a true national unity if there were not so much politics being played, both in Ottawa and the provincial capitals, with the vote of French-Oanada.

So long as the politicians, on every level, put personal or party gain before the national good, we will have a “Quebec prob- lem”, whether1 fancied or real. But we 'should, at least, keep trying for a better- understanding, for a more united Canada, the politicians notwithstanding.

Only through the bonne entente, as Mr. Gagne points out, can we hope to achieve real greatness.

Loss Inevitable ? natural ice surfaces, and hockey continued to decline in popularity. The arena direc- torate went to the added expense of in- stalling a floor, but dancing has not drawn either, and they can understandably be excused for1 feeling that it is time to try and recoup at least part of their very considerable investment.

But it is not only in winter sports that we note, a decline in this area. Lacrosse, which once flourished here, is dead. Soft- ball has been going the same way in recent years and there was none played here this summer, not even the odd pick-up game. Even in our high schools today, athletics. are at the ebb-tide, probably for the reason that so big a percentage of the student bodies are travelling to and from school daily Iby bus. Tennis is still being played, but only by a few. -The Glengarry Foot- ball League is about the only organized sport surviving and that can probably be credited to a few enthusiasts who have managed to keep four teams in competition each year despite dwindling support.

Loss of Glengarry Gardens appears to be inevitable. Perhaps the changing times decree the death of small-time sport as people prefer the professional brand as purveyed on their parlor screens. Tele- vision brings us the best brands of hockey, or football, or tennis, for free. And TV rights are paying a considerable part of the costs of these pro teams.

But where are the professional teams to get their new talent if the amateur brand of sport fails to survive the competition of television? If the day comes when even the professional brand of sport has to lower its standards — as professional base- ball now seems to be doing in the U.S. — perhaps people will wish to see a return of the homebrew, amateur variety.

But then it may be too late to recreate interest or renew facilities like our Glen- garry Gardens that are now falling prey to indifference.

Would that there were some way of preserving our arena for the purposes for which it was built. Our town and the district will feel the loss.

The Weeklies Say

DANGEROUS STEP

It requires only a minimum of common sense .to realize the dan- ger of inflated inner tubes for youngsters unable to swim. . . . Parents would be well advised to forget about inner tubas and have their children learn to swim. — Meaford (Ont.) Express.

o O o RISING COSTS

It must not be forgotten . . . that the municipality is the very basis and cornerstone of government in this country. In the services it renders, the municipal government comes closer to the daily lives of citizens than any other. — Trenton (Ont.). Courier - Advocate,

o O. o HOPEFUL HUNTERS

With the presence of so many wild ducks in the grain fields of the west — a real pest, so they say — duck hunters in this part of On- tario are hopeful they will have something to shoot at this fall. —

Pembroke (Ont.) observer. o O o /

THE GALLANTS

The widely scattered Gallant family of Prince Edward Island, are not Gallants at all but Haches. They are descendants of Francois Hache, whose deeds of courage earned him the name of Hache Gallant, or the. brave Hache. One of his sons moved to New Bruns- wick and retained the family name, but the ones who went to: Prince Edward Island took the name of Gallant. — Yarmouth (NB.) Herald.

o Q o NEWSPAPER’S DUTY

A newspaper, if it is to succeed •and gain steadily in public confidence, must possess character, and adhere to character rigidly and consistently. ... A newspaper’s conviction should never be in jeop- ardy. — Kelowna (B.C.) Courier.

DIESEL POWER

Diesel power on railway brings advantages in economy, power and maintenance of the new equipment. Even so we won’t say good-bye to the steam engine without a twinge of regret. The thundering, hissing monster and its lonely wailing whistle were the epitome and the expression of all the romance in railipadiing’—iKentyille (NB.) Ad- vertiser.

0 O 0 YOUNG EMPLOYEES

Young employees are beginning to adopt the attitude that the world owes them a living, payable in advance, if possible, so that they can start out where their parents left off. It may not always be like it is today and once a recession sets in, the first people to lose their jobs will be this type of employees— Rouyn-Noranda (Que.) Press.

Momism Is Invading Canada (The Ensign) - ' . .

MOMISM — “ask Mom; let Mom decide” — is invading Canada, Great Britain and even Western'Europe along with United States dollars, movies, television programs and popularized tastes.

The vanishdng role of the father in an increasing number of families is arousing concern of social workers, educators, psychiatrists. It has evoked warning® from religious leaders. That is what an Ensign survey,- just completed, reveals.

It is no new phenomenon in the United States. Its ‘export’ is at- tracting growing attention.

Some of the main reasons cited «over a vast variety of causes: Long absences of the fathers during two world wars left the mother

with no choice but to assume double responsibilities. She never has been demobilized.

Rising standards of living creating rising demands upon father’s earning powers to supply ‘extras’. He is so far in debt paying for car, washing machine, radio, television,. fur coat, other amenities or luxuries that he is under constant nervous -strain. At home he is too tired to bother: “Ask Mom, she will decide.”

Thought communication from parent to children of ideals and ideas has become more difficult. Unequal .‘competition’ with comics, radio, movies, television. These have become ‘foster parents’ to many children shaping their idea-world. Dad surrenders too easily, retires1 from competition. He too becomes a captive audience.

Social -and economic exigencies make the family meal a rarity in too many homes. Causes: irregular hours; Mom’s pre-occupation with extra- mural activities; constant telephone call$: to children at meal times; ■acceptance of preferred radio or television programs gaining precedence over family table conversations; dad no longer presides-at meals; Mom’s vanishing interest or knowledge of cooking; John, Jane, Tom and Sister Sue now as expert as Mom with can-opener and heating up precooked frozen foods; children prefer using the ice-box when it suits them.

With rising materialism the role of the father is increasingly portrayed and even stressed as the provider of material necessities or luxuries. He is consulted on allowance not on allowing. Dad too often buys his rest at home by providing money for outside entertainment, from comics to movies.

Modern advertising conditions. Modern thinking on home - life. Woman is the direct target of the sales appeals. She should free herself from “the drudgery” of daily chores. Work for the family is portrayed ■as the “necessary evil”. She is constantly urged to offset by aids of cosmetics, soaps, tonics and hundreds of gadgets the “constant ravages” of homemaking. She is seldom told that acquiring all these aids can make her a. better wife or mother.

WITH OUR

RAMBLING REPORTER By ED.

One way to get rid of party leftovers is to call a cab.

IS EVERYBODY HAPPY?

What should one call it, the late, late show, or the old, old show? Anyway, we were watching one of them on TV the other night, prin- cipally because an old friend was, featured. Remember Ted! Lewis, with his high hat, his twirling; baton, his talking vocals and his, closing phrase, “Is everybody happy?”

We knew him just when radia was young about our house, in the days when th'e old maestro, Ben Bernie, Was another favorite, and Guy Lombardo had competition in dishing up the sweetest music this side of heaven. Now Guy’s about the only holdover to TV, and if you like the Ted Lewis style you’ve got to sit up late and see him. in a period piece that probably neves got farther than the cutting roctn a few decades back when movie fans were more or less discerning..

We enjoyed this late, latey, in spite of the fact Ted was trying; to make like an actor, despite the dated costumes and the thin plot. We liked it because Ted Lewis was. treading the boards again with hia breath of the old, golden days of vaudeville. It brought back memories of days long gone when we were young and Ted, seeaned old, but good entertainment.

“Is everybody happy?’ Ted Lewis kept asking, and for our part the answer was “yes”.

It’s especially hard to keep up with the Joneses when they are being pushed by bill col- lectors.

SPORT FOR SPORT CARS

Our Mill Square was a sporty spot Sunday afternoon, filled to overflowing at one time by all types of sport cars. The low- slung types seemed to be rambling in from all over, and so we ram- bled over to, see what it was - all: about.

Seems four Sports Model Car Clubs in the Montreal area were having a map test and the Hub was the half-way check point in their outing. Forty-seven cars of all types were in on the outing, and it seemed as if at least half of them were parked on the Square at the one time.

Our nose for news got in on the deal and we learned something of what it w'as all about. And it sounded like a swell way to while away a bright, sunny Sunday — after church, that is.

Each driver had a road map, the common every day variety, and he was also banded a set of six pin- points on that map, blown up so as to give him or her sufficient clues as to the route to be covered if they were sharp enough to find: them on the road map. Sunday’s route had taken 'them to a cross- roads called St. .Isidore, in the Valleyfieid area, through St. Poly- carpe and up to Glen Andrew, back of Dalkeith, and so to Alexandria. Each driver had to .find his way io the check-points by the shortest possible route and they were sup- posed to average 37 miles per hour. As one member put it, “I’d hate to say how fast I’ve had to travel on occasion in trying to keep up to that average after taking the wrong road.”

After an hour’s stop here, new clues were issued for the routa back to Montreal. -

They have these outings more than several times a year, sometimes a map test, other times speed trials, driving competitions or what have you.

Sounds like fun, a modern ver- sion of the: cross-country runs and obstacle races in jolly old England. If We had the sports car, the time, and fewer responsibilities, we’d have a go at this game.

GUINDON FAMILY BADE FAREWELL

The L.O.L. Hall, Apple Hill was fhç scene of a. farewell party for one of our prominent young citizens, Fernand Guindon, who is moving to Cornwall to follow up in a larger field his oil distributing business.

Young Man with a Plan

Interest on Sevings

increased to starting September 15th

ITere’s good news for serious savers.

For the second time since the end of

July, The Royal Bank of Canada is

increasing the interest rate on personal

savings. As of September 15th, this

bank will pay 2%% a year, credit-

ing interest every six months, on

April 30th and October 31st, to

your account.

Your savings will grow even faster

at this higher rate—a strong induce-

ment to build up your account by

making regular, systematic deposits

every pay day.

Real savers profit most. Each month,

set aside a fixed amount, earmarked

for your Royal Bank Savings Account,

and leave it there to earn 2 interest.

One of these days, Fred’s going to take

over the farm. Meanwhile, he’s planning,

Studying and working hard . . . learning

right on the job.

There is nothing quite like money in the bank

THE ROYAL BANK OF CANADA Alexandria Branch J. G. Blinn, Manager

Already he’s learned a lot about modem

farm management, and how a chartered

bank can play its part in making farm

living more comfortable, more profitable.

He has found, for example, how useful

the bank can be as a place to build up

savings, to obtain credit, to seek financial

advice and market information. He knows

that the bank manager’s door is open

to everyone.

When you see a good-looking, well-run

farm, chances are the farmer uses the

services the chartered banks have built

up for all Canadians.

DonctSd Archer is really in tune with the times High fidelity sound expert Donald Archer says:

“On older phonographs and records you could hear only part of the sound range. Today’s ‘hi-fi’ systems reproduce the lowest and highest notes of the musical scale with start- ling realism. This modern development has meant great progress in the recording field.”

As a family man, Mr. Archer also benefits by continuous progress in another field . . . life insurance. Policies are more flexible and more adaptable to the needs of individual families.

Today, you can obtain life insurance policies that provide not only basic protection but ready funds for emergencies, also policies for education, for safeguarding your home, for protecting your business and for ensuring your retirement income.

In these and other ways, the life insurance companies in Canada have progressed with the times . . . meeting the needs of people in all walks of life!

THE LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA The amount of life insurance owned by Canadians has doubled

William Legault Resigns Field Post With Ont. Federation Of Agriculture

(Contributed) ■William Legault of Moose Creek,

has resigned his post as Fieldman, (Ontario Dept, of Agriculture, effective September 1. The persons who are responsible for giving leadership in this county’s federation, will miss Mr. Legault’s en- thusiasm and co-operation. Mr. Legault will continue as secretary- treasurer of the Stor-Dun-Glen Co-op Medical Services. What is a “Produce Marketing

Board?”, Vol. 1, No. 1— During the past thirty years and

more, particularly since the end of World War H, Canadian farmers have been marketing an increasing volume of their commodities through producer - marketing boards. Under authority of provincial and federal legislation ithese marketing boards exercise control over specific commodities within given areas.

In other Words, farmers through organizations controlled and operated by themselves and having powers delegated by legislative authority, exercise control over the marketing of certain farm products. Produce - Marketing Boards

Benefits—

^Collective farmer control over the quality, packaging, shipping and distribution of his product, and control over the conditions under which sales of the product are carried out, produce these benefits :

1. Traditional and outmoded trade practices are modified or eliminated and this improves the possibility of the. producer receiving a fairer share of the retail price of his product.

2. An improved product reaches the consumer.

3. The (bargaining position of the farmer is greatly increased.

4. More stable and frequently higher prices are achieved for the farmer, and .this inevitably con- tributes to a healthier agricultural economy. Extent of Producer - Board

Operations— A recent tabulation of marketing

boards in Canada showed that there were 2Ô such boards in operation'. Of the 29, a total of 17 were operating in Ontario. The balance were in Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Brit- ish Columbia.
