Authorized as Second-Class Mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa BLUE MONDAY Seldom, if ever, have we in- vaded the hallowed halls of ed- ucation on this page. The last time we had something writ- ten, Dr, Neatby's book came off the press and we didn't feel like sharing the limelight with any- one that week, so we withdrew it Our chief interest in education until now has been basic -- spell- ing. We were led to believe that in order to communicate with our fellowmen, we had first to be able to converse and then to follow it up with the written word, Conversing isn't too com- plicated because you can work in facial and use your hands if you're in a tight But a written communica- expressions spot. 1 tion is something else again. On occasions we have been de- lighted to receive material from students; however, we found the translations too arduous prevail on them often. "We met them at the coiner'--"We where ing' "We got to the woods * he nose against the glass" "Enought for supper" "He shuttered with fright" "Allan hampered on the door" "The vegetables endured juring the winter" - \ hudge dog', Last week, we noticed a nice hand-painted sign Food Grill which said "Did you here that ?". Latet the newly luated commercial lassie who to eaning in the Good on there is listens to the dictaphone and orders "Two births' on the Northland for her employer. These are not fictional examples they ar® true and we could go on "four" hours. We disagree with Dr. Sydney Smith, too. We think it is worse now than it ever was. Meantime, we find the "new' system (whose aim seems to be to create a smartness in each and every student) cinating. At 1:30 p.m, on Monday, became confused. We had to aee-A tian what day it was. Why Because we noticed the cutest little tykes shuffling into "Gone With the Wind" in snow suits. When we found out that lost week-end-- it specious fas- we it wasn't a really was M the show The littlebrown eyed child in front of us said he was in Grade III and his friend too.

We will be happy to help you, at our Christmas Card Shop next to Hughes' Grocery WHITBY'S PHARMACY Gradually all he Grades were fairly well represented, The smell of pop- corn filled the air and the child ren sank lower and lower into their seats to watch the life and loves of Scarlett O'Hara for four solid hours. We presume this would come under Social Studies. On the other hand, the Henry V production last year would be of great value to an eleven- year-old in Grade VII. Just be- cause we all understand Shake- speare so well, is no reason why the little dears shouldn't get out of school to hear the words of the great bard. One mother was very difficult about this. When her child added two more years onto her life telling her she was "old-fashioned'--'mean' and "stupid"--well, the stupid, old-fashioned mother quietly pulled Henry from the book shelf, read the first two pages aloud and won her point. Ah, education, school authori ties and mothers have allowed them togoto "Gone With the Wind" on the first day of a new school week. How the old order changeth! IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE Workers of the Social Credit party were busy in Haileybury and district over the past week- end" distributing and _ soliciting subscriptions to publications call- ed Social Credit and Vers De- main. In a democratic commui- ity the distributors of these publications are within their tights in seeking to gain moral and financial support for their cause. Few people would ques- tion their right to believe in the cause of Social Credit, if for no other reason than few people seem to understand what it is all about. We would not want to discourage those who may wish to investigate the theories of Social Credit for a man's po- litical benefits as well as his relig- ious beliefs, should be purely personal matters . But while those persons who received com- plimentary copies of these pub- lications are examining them we would suggest that they look be- yond the economic doctrines of Social Credit and witness- an- other-and more frightening as- pect of the movement -- the hideous spectre of anti-Semitism It is just a matter of days since we commemorated the sacrifice in life and limb of those who de- feated the evil of Hitler, whose most infamous memorial may be the brutal anti-Semitism of his regime, It is disturbing now to Witness the emergence in this part of Canada of a_ political faction which embraces this LA AAOODO22.2.2 2224» OOo Oo oa Cove Radio: RADIO REPAIRS & Home Appliance Repairs and Service Telephone 649-] AAAAAASDAAALAL AADADEDREADD OnKeefes WEEKLY SPORTS CALENDAR CURLING MIXED BONSPIEL New Lskeard Friday, Saturday, Sunday BADMINTON Tuesday, Thursday, Sunday TUNE IN ON THE GREY CUP FINALS ON SATURDAY OK fe we quote without comment the remarks of a professiona] Amer- ican hatemonger, Gerald Smith. who says on Page Six of Social Credit: "Washington ruled; manipulated, browbeaten, corced blackmailed, bribed and{corrupt- ed by the Jews and financiers of New York City and their hench- the lay press to unintormed read- men in 48 States dnd in every ers..'. To avoid distortion and nation in earth..." In another to inform our readers correctly article, Mr. Smith states "The same anti-Semitic doctrine. An editorial on Page Seven of Social Credit states that the paper was published "To help Canada learn about Social Credit doctrine and movement, and to correct the false impressions arising from distorted notions and news too commonly fed by is Senate is afraid of this Zionist machine, The House of Repre- sentatives is afraid of this Zion- ist machine, The President ot the United States is manipulated by this Zionist machine. It rules America....." As for us, we're just afnaid of Mr. Smith and those in the Social Credit move- ment who hope to win friends and influence voters by the use ofracial and religious prejudice, Canadian political parties -have traditionally rejected this type of appeal in seeking political of- fice. There is no reason now to believe that a fringe party advo- cating a questionable *-"nomic theory and spreading the poison of anti-Semitism will win the support of responsible, thinking citizens. Money goes to work every day... When you see a contractor on a job, a bank loan may be helping to finance it. il) Manufacturers and merchants use bank credit to help buy materials, process and market goods. Farmers and other primary producers borrow from a bank to buy equipment, meet seasonal needs. The benefits of bank credit run through all personal and commercial life. Bank credit operates silently, but on every hand you have satisfying assurance that it is "at work'. . . in all types of communities, for all sorts of worthwhile purposes. The chartered banks continually adapt their many ~ services to meet the changing, expanding needs of modern enterprise and modern living.
