Tabu. 190 Rotary Club (Contlnued fnom Page One) was recalled to him last week when numerous city readers of The Statesman mailed hîm clip- pings from the "Dim and Distant" column. His subject then was "The Game o! Life" a game be hlad lcarned much more about in the past quarter century. Among things learned was the fact that- small towns held the spiit o! youth. He named a dozen white- tbatched Rotarians atill animated with that spirit. Respect Lacking Ail o! which led up to a meet- ing in a rural school near Peter- boro, the evening before, where Mr. Edmison was guest peaker. It was billed as "Pioncer Night" and the speaker tested his theory that modern education lacked something vital today. Question- ing young people he found almost everyone could name the leading athletic figures o! the bour but not one could nane a single old- tine graduate of the school wbo had gone out to becone noted in sone sphere of national affairs. Mr. Edmison believed this to be true o! most pupils today. Naming a dozen men and wo- men who went out from rural schools in early days to win fane, It was unfortunately true that nothing had been done to perpetuate their memories and Ontario CREOPHOS Stops Bronchial Coughs la An Ideal Tonte Lge.

The whole lesson of the struggle of the .pio- neers, their honesty and bard work, the outstanding success of former pupils was lost because no one made the effort to write suc- cess stories into school history. The speaker pointed out the ad- vantages of this kind o! history as seen in his travels in the USA. U.S.A. Custom Time and again, he said, he found in small communities over there nany plaques, pictures and historical data on people who had made their birtbplace famous by virtue of their achievements. Pu- pils could quote their achieve- ments verbatimi and were in- spired tbereby. Old homes were held as shriuxes and restorcd by common community enterprise. Wc have yet to corne to this form of honor and inspiration in most of the rural districts o! Can- ada. As a factor in inspiring youth the natter is one that should have the thought and in- spiration of leaders in the com- munity and the speaker com- nended this particularly to the attention of service clubs. Siurn Clearance Turning to the question of youth delinquency, Mr. Edmison said that in his work the records dis- closed that almost 80 percent of delinquency could be traced to homes in city slums and an cx- perienced social worker could be 80 percent right in pinpointing just where these homes were ac- tually located. The natter of slum clearance was the vcry ront of attacking the youth delinquency problem. While many heid that providing modemn homes for un- derprivileged fanilies would find them stili adhering to siovenly living, that was not the experi- ence in the city o! Glascow, Scot- land. The speaker told of personal visits to a district in that city both before and after slum clearance and the occupants of the new homes kept thema spotlessly dlean and the whoie outlook o! families was conpletely revolutiornzed to- ward good citizenship, ahl through a sense that they really "belong- cd" to the community. The inci- dence of crime was the complete answer to those who scoffed at the public expense involvcd as being visionary and ineffective. Praise for B.T.S. A visit to the Boys Training School before coming on to the Rotary Club was described by the speaker as a nost refreshing cx-1 perience. Talking directly with many pupils who came frorn un- derprlvileged homes At could be seen how greatly l'ey appreciat- cd their oppotturiny to do some- thing useful to get an education, learn sone craftt or trade, really "llive*' in a mxodemn environnent where good, food, recreation and unzerstand.i'ng leadership inspired a wholly ,iew outlook on life. Mr. Edtnison stated empbatical- ly that the Boys Training School was a credit to the Bownanville connunity, a truly magnificent, non-political setup, a crime pre- vention agency of the first order. It was bis belief that no sinilar organization could equal it as to its purpose and direction in any country. Great praise was ac- cordcd the staff of teachers and instructors and be made the point that no physical setup, no natter how elegant, could offer youth that indefinable quality o! uplift witbout the real sincerity found in the trained staff at the school. Respect for Law In closing the speaker quoted a passage from a recent release of the Citizens Research Institute, on Penal Reform: "The bcd-rock fromn which al improvements must build is a ci- tizen body which understands the role o! Law and supports the working of Law. Canada wants its youth to learn the value o! pulling with the conmunity-not against it. Aduits in every walk of life have a high responsibility here. It means flot just obeying the Law ourselves. but also sup- porting those values o! good home l! e, education, recreation, work, and spirîttual vitality which com- bine to make responsible mem- bers o! society. Crime is one of Canada's costliest injuries and hinderances. It needs a well- TICKETS TO EVERYWHERE Air, Rail or Steamshlp consuit JURY & LOVELL Bowmanvllle 15 King St. W.

Samis, President, Canad- ian Legion: "We ail know that al- most 50 percent, o! recruits in the last war were found with physical handicaps. We can overcone this deficiency by providing universal ecreation. The Memorial Rink is an important unit for better health and strength among our youth. It simply must go through." Charles Carter Sr., President, Chamber o! Commerce: "For sone 15 years this community has been without a rink. It is a comnentary we can no longer afford. As a town and district we have an honour to uphold. The Bownan- ville Chamber o! Commerce stands 100 percent for the completion o! the new Memorial Rink." Sports Leader Moe Breslin, Coach and Man- ager, Bownanvilie Red Raiders hockey team: "When the team I coached to the Chanpionship o! Ontario, two semsons ago, reccived public acclaim at a comnunity banquet, I hoped it would spark the building o! a rink for my boys had to practice and play out of town. The new Memorial Rink nust be completed." Chie! o! Police Sidney Venton: "As Treasurer o! the Boy Scouts I know the high value o! health- fui recreation for young people. As Chie! o! Police I meet the resuits o! the lack o! faclities to give to youth the advantages they want. It would be a calamity if the new Menorial Rink was held up in any way." Women Speak Mrs. A. J. Frank, Divisional Commissioner, Girl G ui decs: "Speaking fron long experience among the girls o! this commun- ity, I can say that nothing would be more help!ul and inspiring than the recreation of!ered in the new Memorial Rink. The canvass ta- norrow night simply must not fail." Dr. J. C. Dcvitt, Chaimman, Board o! Education: "I recah h great public enthusiasm :nti district when I captained the Champion Bowmanviile Football Tean. We shouid recapture that spirit for the youth o! today and rush to completion the new Mcm- orial Rink." Sehool Principals Principals, L. W. Dippeil, Higb School and A. M. Thompson, Public Schools: "Our position is well known on the new Rink and Recreation Centre. The insistekce o! pupils over many years for an establishment o! this kind bas had our time and interest in promot- ing a new rink and the Commun- ity Council. We join in the appeal ta parents and citizens generally to provide the !unds necessary to complete this fine undertakîng." What About You? Many other citizens interviewed weme wholly in accord with the views aboya expressed. Business managers, Union members, Ser- vice Clubs, rural people, lndeed the entire cross-section o! public opinion, ail were in favor o! con- pleting the rink structure and its facilîties. The building Io already well under construction as the accon- panying views show. In the gen- eral canvass o! the town tomorrow night, there is only one question ta answer: "What About You?" The Rink Committce feels confi- dent o! your generous reply. There's danger at dusk for dri- vers and pedestrians! The De- partment o! Highways points out that the half-ligbt o! twilight plays tricks with the vision. Go- ing-home tra!!ic is usuaily heavy: and hurried. People are tired and perhaps inattentive.
