jg 2 the stooyfyiue tribune tbanitj hwcntt 9 i9 editorial a crowning achievement for eleven young people six girls and five boys friday evening nov 10th marks a very important occasion in their scholastic careers they will receive their muchcoveted diplomas as graduates of the stouff- ville district high school we feel that for these young men and young ladies it is a crowning achievement one that deserves recognition and praise too often we have felt that this accomplishment is passed off too lightly as just another parade of student personnel a stage perform ance played to the tune of hesitant applause the audience is human and it is perhaps understandable that the earl ier presentations of lower and middle school diplomas in addition to a host of academic and athletic awards would tend to wear the enthusiasm a little thin in spite of this we con tend that the honour graduates are honoured guests and the full spotlight of attention should be focussed on this minority group this is th gallant remains of the throng that entered the school five long years before these are the sole survivors that have withstood the ravages of time and tide to reach their respec tive goals in this day and age when so much stress is placed on the need for higher education among our young folk it is only proper that such accomplishments should be fittingly recognized too often we feel that these honour graduates become lost in the shuffle their scroll of parchment is similar to the ninetyeight others gone before and yet it is different much different these successful students represent the success of th school and its staff lets roll out th red carpet a return to oha ranks after a rather lengthy absence from the ranks of oha competition stouffville may make a determined comeback this season the success of this venture will depend mainly on two factors 1 the enthusiasm of the players 2 the enthusiasm of the fans promoters have set their sights on a junior d entry and such a team could be a stepping stone to greater things in organized hockey circles the club will boast no ring ers and will be comprised strictly of homebrew talent similar plans have been formulated in alliston newmarket uxbridge and oshawa which would round out a compact group in this day and age of artificial ice operation a hockey entry requires financial support a portion of this money must come through the wicket from enthusiasatic spectators a win on the ice but a loss at the gate will quickly dampen the spirits of the most energetic organizations stouff ville should be back in the oha and junior d is a good place to start a punk trademark a district weekly newspaper car ried a true story recently concerning the lady motorist who much to her disgust ran out of gas while driving along a busy highway outside of town much to her surprise a teen age youth dressed in a black leather jacket stopped to offer his assistance on learning the trouble the young lad jumped back in his truck and headed for the nearest service sta tion in a matter of minutes he re turned with a can of gasoline the lady was able to start her car and her helper drove away without leav ing his name she proceeded to the station to return the container and was in formed by the attendant that the youth had already paid for the pur chase this act no doubt left a last ing impression on the motorist as it did on this writer perhaps the lad was a gentleman in disguise or is that black leather jacket a punk trademark rather than the trademark of a punk another poppy day these are dangerous times in which we live and in the midst of them comes another poppy day another day to give us cause to re member what such dangerous times can lead to for the fallen of two world wars the poppy has become the badge of honour and for many a symbol of hope the poppy worn on the lapel is also a symbol that there are men and women who care those who would like to repay in some small measure for that which can never be returned the poppy is a badge of remem brance and tribute and a chance to help those who served and those who are left alone flanders poppies will again be offered for sale on stouffville streets this saturday you can show some small measure of compassion and gratitude by buying one of these badges or remembrance always striving to be better what has been established as national newspaper week is just concluded you who have been sub scribers for many years have you noticed the difference in your home town press wed like to tell you that we are striving to make a better community newspaper to make a newspaper that keeps pace with the community and that may be worth more to the community certainly we must make a pro fit on our product that is the canad ian way we must make a profit to replace wornout machinery to buy new machinery and to print a better newspaper we must also make a decent wage and pay our employees a decent wage that is also our way our main job is presenting the news that is why you pay your sub scription or buy it on the newsstand you pay to get the news and your newspaper is interested in giving you all the news it is our right to inform and with this right goes the respon sibility to inform your newspaper also stands sen tinel to guard our way of life that too is our responsibility we believe in selfgovernment that in the hands of the people our way of life is safe we believe that no regiment ed society can replace that which we enjoy we invite you to examine your community newspaper we invite criticism for we know that through criticism your newspaper may be better able to meet the challenge to greater improvement primer coat needed in painting on glass if you must paint glass the easiest method is to start with a priming coat of tinted shellac it gives a better base for the finishing coats before you paint a plate glass window the journal adds it would be wise to check your insurance coverage such win dows arc prone to crack because the paint affects the expansion and contraction many insurance companies refuse to underwrite painted windows considering the problem of paint removal on ornate trim the article notes that the costs of removing paint are usually so great in labor that unless a blowtorch can be used it be comes prohibitive replacing doorcasings and windowtrims is often cheaper and the results are better if this is

by the time this appears in print the battle over the ob servance of remembrance day nov 11 will be over in most centres its an annual fracas which generates a good deal of heat and on occasion some bit terness on one side is the legion one of whose aims is to keep alive the memory that a goodly num ber of lathers and sons uncles and brothers had their lives torn from them prematurely and painfully in the two world wars that have disgraced the twentieth century the legion urges that the day be declared a lull holiday in every commun ity and that it be fittingly ob served ranged on the other side are the merchants and manufactur ers some of whom resent the loss of profit or production that is involved lots of them are veterans themselves they claim and with some justice that its not a day of remembrance any more but merely a holiday they wonder aloud why they should pay wages to a fellow who will simply take the oppor tunity to go hunting or sit in the pub all day and right in the middle is the canadian government in defer ence to the big pressure from the legion the government closes its own offices on nov 11 but in deference to the even bigger potential howl from in dustry the government does not declare the day a national holiday and makes little at tempt to encourage it as such what about that ubiquitous creature the man in the street where docs ho stand im not sure but i have a pretty good idea that ho feels about this question just as he does about most others he couldnt care less of course if it were put to a national vote hed vote for the holiday i hate to admit it but im afraid that fellow would vote for a paid holiday if some one suggested one in memory of henry the eighth john a macdonaid or good king wcn- ceslas i have an idea for nov 11 lets make it a full holiday and lets make it a real day of national mourning and remem brance lets turn oft all hydro lets make any kind of heat or light against the law for 24 hours lets close all places of entertainment lets forbid tra vel then in the cold and dark and the boredom wed suffer perhaps one onehundredth of what the fellows in the trenches went through back in that big war that ended 43 years ago perhaps the reason the gov ernment plays it cagey is be cause it is obvious that in 20 years there wont be many world war i veterans left and in 30 years theyll be virtually extinct i find that a depressing thought in more ways than one personally i hate to miss the annual parade to the cenotaph at our school wo have an im pressive remembrance ceremo ny we always formed up at the legion hall with a great bust ling among the color party and the parademaster the scouts and guides would tag on the end to swell our meagre ranks to the inevitable strains of colo nel bogey we swung smartly down the main street stern and straight we marched looking neither to left nor right except to nod at friends or grin at our kids or wave to our wives when we halted at the ceno taph there would be a big crowd maybe 40 or so gathered there everybody would be look ing pretty serious it was al ways cold the mayor read tiie names of the fallen and the wind would snatch them up and throw bits of them into the crowd a representative from each of the towns organizations placed a wreath with varying degrees of selfconsciousness then came the call for individ ual wreaths you blamed the wind for making your eyes water as one or two women lone swollen with memory of lost son or husband went awk wardly forward at the flagpole his post of honor stood the old legion naire he had fought in the first one and he had lost his son in the second one and when iie lowered the flag and bowed his head and the colors dipped and the last post shivered in the cold and the town bell tolled jn the silence that followed theve was a big painful lump in your throat and then with the jaunty hoot of reveille the dying was ended and life began again the shouted command the lively march tune of the band brought the wanted release from sad ness and wo swung oft merrily enough and after the service the warmtli of the legion hall with good friends good fellowship good refreshments and good stories by the hour ah im sorry i wont be there this year ill miss every bit of it except the bit where i catch a phenom enal blast from my wife for arriving home 12 hours after the parade what we deserve is always less

the largest creator of wealth in the land helps to support canadians in all other occupations for parents only by nancy cleaver children are so different children are so different a mother complained i never know what to ex pect thats what makes home life exciting her friend answered if parents would accept at the time of a babys birth the fact that all children differ how much happier life would be how much unnecessary sorrow arises from parents especially mothers wanting their child to be taller or heavier or brighter or more friendly to others than he is naturally there is no one pattern for all children in every home with several children parents often notice how different they are it is im portant to remember that chil dren have feelings which can be hurt they are sensitive when they hear disparaging remarks about themselves such as tom is not nearly so clever at school as john or jean is such a careless untidy child quite dif ferent from mary who is neat as a pin about her clothes and playthings or billy is just naturally at home with strang ers hell make up with anyone but helen is painfully shy site runs and hides when i have visi tors put yourself in toms or jeans or helens place how would you like to know your mother held uch a poor opinion of you another mistake busy par ents sometimes make is in fail ing to look for some one thing each child does well he needs sufficient encouragement and praise so that ho feels he is a success every person craves not only the good opinion of otheis but he also needs to think well of himself im not much good at anything a teen age girl remarked to a friend that girls mother should have helped her to find out what she was good at so that she would not have such a poor estimation of her own ability in some homes a child may be good at something and be prais ed for his skill and because praise is pleasant he wants that job always to be reserved for him but unless there is a sys tem of taking turns in work as well as in other things the other children in the family get no practice at this particular thing dorothy may be a marvel at making pie but her younger sister linda needs to try her hand at this too boys and girls are made on a different plan serious harm to a childs normal sex develop ment in later years may often be traced to a mothers disap pointment in the arrival of a son when she wanted adaugh tor or visa versa resulting in her treating her boy like a little girl overdressing him keeping ids hair long and pro tecting him from those rough little boys in the neighborhood a girl who is overencouraged to be a tomboy may also dis cover if hard in adolescence to find her place easily with other girls in the collegiate gang the differences in children of about the same age can easily be observed at a birthday party of a dozen children eight years old some will be tall others short seme fair others dark but the contrast in their social accountants john c wylie fia licensed public
