Most of the data gathered are needed, admittedly; but some of the figures are merely interesting, while the importance of others is grossly exaggerated. It is sald, for example, that "age distributions are essential to school authorities in judging future needs for teachers and schools" Im POrtant, yes but school authorities who wait for the census figures will find themselves lagging badly in the planning for future needs Jack Miner's National Wild Life Week is not just another special week, It Is 8 week proclaimed by a special act of parlia ment on April 18 1947, In fat it was the first Bill since Confederation to ever he passed unanimously by all the mem hers of the House of Commons and members of the Canadian Renate I'he Bill has a twolold objective One 18 10 awaken public interest to the need for conservation, especially among the sohoo! children, and to the value i our bird TR and other natural resources.
