part of fanning all his life and feels that he was more fortunatex than a lot of his friends in that he always wanted to be a farmer lf lz part of his secondary school education was acquired at the then newly opened markham district high school he then went on to guelph university where he took 2 a twoyear diploma course in agriculture dealing primarily with animal health and r and field crops j while he indicates that public school does litle to provide specific knowledge for a farming career he believes education is important to the farmer particularly at agricultural schools and colleges

the daughter of a dairy farmer and lived at norval near brampton before their mar riage aileen is a partner in the true sense of the word and has been active for many years at markham fair with barry

christopher 12 all are very involved in the 4h section of the fair showing calves and horses over the years they enter various competitions and there is a healthy rivalry among the children when vying for prizes at the fair mr little is very much a community spi- rited individual besides his involvement in markham fair he is a past president of the cedar grove community club which draws membership from the community and operates cedar arena- an outdoor ice- skating facility in the winter as ell as a baseball diamond in the summer he is ac tive in the jersey breeders- club and a director of the
