peat 2 the stouffviue tubune tiuruby ju 18 1962 editorial what is a coach a coach is a politician a judge a public speaker a teacher a trainer a financier a labourer a psychologist a psychiatrist and a chaplain it also helps if he is an astrologer or at least understands numerology he must be an optimist and yet at times appear a pessimist seem humble and yet be very proud strong but at times weak confident and yet not overconfident enthusiastic but not too enthusiastic he must have the hide of an elephant the fierceness of a lion the pep of a young pup the guts of an ox the stamina of an antelope the wisdom of an owl the cunning of a fox and the heart of a kitten it will also be to hi3 benefit to develop the acting ability of a poker player with a pat hand he must be willing to give freely of his time his money his energy his youth his family life his health and sometimes even life itself in return he must expect little financial reward little comfort on earth little privacy little praise but plenty of criticism however a good coach is respec ted in his community is a leader in his school is loved by his team and makes lasting friends wherever he goes he has the satisfaction of seeing boys develop and improve in ability he learns the thrill of victory and how to accept defeat with grace his associations with athletes help keep him young in mind and spirit and he too must grow and improve in ability with his team in his heart he knows that in spite of the inconveniences the crit icisms and the demands on his time he loves his profession for he is the coach new vigour for industrial effort it would appear that there is going to be new vigour this year in our efforts to attract industry to lo cate in stouffville already the in dustrial committee established late last year has met officers have been named new members are to be added and initial contacts are on the way reeve timbers has stated that the getting of industry is to be his spe cial concern and we sincerely hope that the new efforts to be put forth are successful while the metro area and many- similar city sections have boomed this past few years with hundreds of new industries the percentage to locate in the smaller communities has been small or at least much in the min ority there are always the basic rea sons why industries seek locations in metro rather than thirty miles out they tend to stick to the highly pop ulated markets both for labour sea- the curl the curling bug has taken a big bite into the britches of dozens of stouffville and district residents and the fever that has resulted is reach ing epidemic proportions the sport is currently the talk of the town the words stone end and sweep have become part of almost every ones vocabulary and still the interest continues to grow husbands wives and students are rapidly becoming addicted to the game the almost continuous action in crisp midwinter atmosphere creates an impelling force to return again and again and again what is back of this sudden surge of curling contagion for the most part the erection of the new rolling hills arena near bethesda in sons and for their disposal of goods there is another reason as well which we may have overlooked this is the fact that the vast majority of young executives who must make the major decisions on industrial location are city born and bred they have little comprehension of the life that exists outside these densely populated areas they do not realize that there are benefits available in the rural areas which could outweigh those to be found in the city they are prone to think of rural towns as only places for beef butter eggs and summer cottages if this is the case and we believe that in many instances it is it be hooves us to advertise ourselves with enthusiasm and energy let each of us be a walking publicity agent for our town telling each one we meet far and wide the fine things about stouff ville and what a wonderful place it is to work and to play ing bug whitchurch township must receive the credit a number of the local citizenry had become quite proficient at the sport prior to the completion of this project but now everybody and his brother is jumping on the curling bandwagon stouffville is wellknown for its golf enthusiasts during the long cold months of winter however the greens must bow to the ravages of kneedeep snow drifts and that once- graceful teeoff swing grows stiff and stale for want of exercise now this seasonal recreational layoff problem has been solved try tossing a forty pound nock down the ice or sweep ing at a mileaminute pace in the heat of a close contest and youll see what we mean to receive a fair hearing the word amalgamation has been expounded with considerable en thusiasm by some trustee members seeking a solution to present over crowded conditions in many district public schools where a number of sections in close proximity to each other are in the throes of individual construction campaigns we feel that amalgamation is a sane and sensible answer many are vigorously opposed to such plans and can present logical reasons for their stand yearly trans portation costs rank high on the list amalgamation is a major move although we believe that such a trend is favoured by the department of education we feel that the school boards are wise in allowing the rate payers to delve carefully into the pros and cons of such a venture a number of public meetings are being organized in both uxbridge and pick ering townships this month and more may follow there is no doubt that amalgamation in most instances will be given thoughtful considera tion we have contended that one good school to serve two or more sections would be better than indi vidual smaller structures

wor ried about junior that i am taking him to see a specialist this week really i dont know what is the matter with marys ap- peute she eats next to noth ing have you ever heard remarks like these coming from anxious parents have you ever made similar comments yourself a- bout your own child strangely enough eating which should be a pleasure be comes a problem in many modern homes this situation is hardly ever found in primitive civilizations nor are families where poverty makes food very scarce apt to be troubled by noneaters refusal of food mostly vexes parents of middle class and wealthy homes and is prevalent in the case of only children here is one place where a child can successfully defy his parents force feeding even of a gentle type is utterly use less for a normal healthy child bribes threats punishments none of these are effective in solving this difficulty parents must try to discover what is the underlying cause of the childs indifference to food there are a number of reasons why a child may not want to eai his refusal may not have one simple origin ra ther this may arise for several combined reasons only by pa tient observation can mother put her finger on the reason or reasons why her child wont eat the child may be a sick child needing a doctors checkup a tonic with iron and bl may be useful perhaps nibbling food between meals or candy is de stroying the appetite if a child is worried or upset or if he feels hurried he will not be keen about food perhaps the child is copying an adult who has voiced a dis like of food if the childs health is suffering over a period of time a physician must be con sulted but if the problem has just appeared mother may be able to deal wilh it herself when a child says i dont want it over one particular food dont worry too much if he wont eat meat give him pro tein in other forms fish eggs chese parents who are not too insis tent on clean plates for every meal have fewer eating prob lems than those who are too stict if a child refuses to eat what is set before him at one particu lar meal dont let him get you all excited perhaps he is seeing it he can have some fun by getting a rise out of you give him twenty minutes to fin ish his meal dont coax fuss or threaten at the end of meal time remove his dishes and do not give him anything else to eat until the next meal time this may sound hardhearted but many parents can testify that this plan works there is a chance that a child may be refusing food because he is emotionally upset he may think baby sister has been receiving too much attention when he is reassured that he is getting his fair share of mo thers care his appetite is like- sugar spice by bill smiley theres nothing like a spot of real oldfashioned canadian winter is there whats that you say youll take the bomb oh come my dear fella thats no attitude weve had a delightful taste of it here thirtysix inches a solid yard of the deep and crisp and even during the past week and i must say i rejoice in it its ust a shame that it cant be spread around a bit more here wc are levelling in it and some of those in the unfortunate bot tom end of the country havent had more than an inch of it makes some feel rather selfish theres something about v in ter that gets me right here youh have to use your imagin ation once the decadence of the holiday season is behind us we hardy rugged virile cana dians can get down to some real living right thats why were so much cheerier and healthier and betterlooking than those soft southern races oh winter has its little an noyances just as summer does as i shovelled out my driveway for the fifth time in five days a still small voice within me en quired why didnt that thick headed irish grandfather of yours emigrate to australia m but that is counteracted by the fun of winter driving there is a dash to it a good fellowship about it that makes it more of a game than a chore for ex ample the other day i started for work as usual it was snow ing the hill was slippery so i decided to go the long way ar ound an hour and 20 minutes later i arrived at work but it was worth it pushing and being pushed i had met some of the friendliest people you could find i had seen two dandy accidents and though i had been forced to abandon my car half a mile further from work than where id started i had the pleasure of mushing up the long hill with two charming ladies breaking trail for me thats more than sir edmund hilary had when he climbed mount everest there are lots of other joyous experiences in our wholesome canadian winter but i think its our winter snorts that make me feel more alive thn anything ly suddenly to return to him mothers are concerned that their children should cat a well- balanced diet but no diet should be judged by what is eaten at one meal or even during one day a week is a better time- span for estimating a good or poor diet ix there is a worried anxious atmosphere at meal time this destroys the relaxed contented feeling which should be pres ent arc meals a happy occasion or a battleground in jour home else you should hear me hum ming with pure pleasure as i nib the wax on young kims to boggan before sending her off for a jolly afternoon on the hill and i fairly quiver with ex citement when young hugh and i head out for the ski slopes its such a colorful lively sport the gailyclad skiers with their brighthued sweaters and spark ling white leg casts the scar let of blood against snow the cheery moans of those with freshlytorn cartilages but the real tin ill is caieen- ing down the big hill as grace ful as a gull as light as a dart in a windstorm i could watch him all afternoon but its sort of lonely sitting there in the car and besides i have to get home and shovel out the front walk we dont use it ourselves but the postman complained this week said it was coming over the tops of his rubber boots m another great sport beckons at the curling rink so its on with the sweater and tarn grab the broom and off to the club it gets pretty hot sitting around there playing cribbage and all that stua with a big wool swea ter on but its the atmosphere that counts there arc so many other won derful winter sports that its difficult to take them all in theres this great new golf ser ies saturday afternoon on tele vision that takes up a lot of lime and on saturday night theres the daddy of them all the hockey game no no not the one down at the rink the one that oil company sponsors nobody but a real red blooded canadian would have the zest for living that all these winter sports demand arent you glad you arent rich and dont have to go down south every winter and bum around swimming in that tepid water and loaf ar ound getting fat on all that fried chicken not to mention getting all dried out and leatherylook ing from too much sun wc should have an exchange program with some of those soft lazy southern races a month or two in canada at this time of year would make real men of those birds we could send some of our old people down on the exchange to places like jamaica and mexico for example but it wouldnt work you see the people who organized it chaps like me would have to volunteer to go along with our old folk to arrange things for them and wed miss all the joy ous excitement of this winter wonderland thered be no vol unteers i for one couldnt stand
