United States: $3.00 Per Year People of the North always appeared to have had a particular love and regard for children. This was apparent any time there was any sort of appeal to help the children in any way. The Children‘s Aid has always received good support here, and it has been noted that the work done by service clubs:â€" for the children has made parâ€" ticular popular appeal. Accordingly, it is not surâ€" prisingâ€"that the appeal of the Hospital for Sick Children ‘for funds for the erection of a new and There is a general need here for a large comâ€" munity centre, but the fact is that it would be well worth while for such an organization as the Canadian Young People‘s Club alone. This club includes young people of all classes and creeds and racial origins. It is what its name implies â€"Canadianâ€"and embraces all covered by that wide name. The Advance believes that no more fitting memorial could be erected to the men who have given their lives in this war than a comâ€" munity centre. It would be the sort of memorial that the gallant dead would have favoured. It would accommodate the gallant men and women who have served in the war and who will return here. It would contribute in striking way to the comfort and the welfare of those who are left, and what more fitting memorial could be erected to those who died to save the freedom and the way of living of Canadians. The Canadian Young People‘s Club, while sponâ€" sored by the British Isles Victory Club, has its own officers and conducts its own affairs in democratic way. The British Isles Victory Club, with rare good judgment, has left the young people to carry out their own plans in their own way. And, on their part the members of the C. Y. P. C. have kept a friendly touch with their sponsors that has been most valuable to both and to the community. The success of the club has been one of the most important benefits that has been to Timmins, this may not be generally realized. A little thought will show how such a club can really take care of any youth problem that there may be. This has been amply proved to date. For it to continue, however, opportunity and encouragement must be given these enterâ€" prising young people. It is easy to see that if they had such accommodation as provided by the McIntyre Arena, they would look after themselves in the most effective way. Another feature of the report is the address by Mr. W. H. Pritchard to the club. In his address Mr. Pritchard pointed out that under the new town byâ€"law no more than 225 people could attend any gathering at the Hollinger hall, the club‘s meeting place. This is surely a matter for public interest when it is remembered that the club has a membership of over 450. The club has had full support from the British Isles Victory Club and generous usage by the Hollinger, but the matter of accommodation is a question beyond the powers of either of these bodies. It does seem to The Advance that there should be proper acâ€" commodation for a club of this sort. It is true that other organizations feel similar need here, but this particular case deserves very special thought from all concernedâ€"and that means everybody. Here is a group of young people who are making the most valuable contribution â€"to the welfare of the community. They are giving the most effective answer to . the muchâ€"discussed "juvenile problem by building good citizenship and advanced thinking along the right lines by the young people themselves. This club has proven that the young people are good citizens and if given opportunity will show beyond question that no one has real cause for worry about the youth of this town.. - | Timmins, Ontario, Thursday, July 12, 1945 L63 DESERVES ENCOURAGEMENT FOR A WORTHY CAUSE TIMMINS, ONTARIG as warning exâ€"servicemen of the dangers they have to face in the matter. If the rackets are stopped, there will be little danger in paying the exâ€"serviceman too soon. The speeding up of the payment of gratuities would appear to be the chief problem. The servicemen have earnedâ€"all they will be given, and there should be no undue delay in paying them. In all these matters. The Advance believes that the government would receive the best agvice and the greatest help if they would consult the Canadian Legion. Pracâ€" tically all the advantages enjoyed by the returned men of toâ€"day have come from the efforts of the Legion in their behalf.. The Legion knows the conditions and the circumstances from all angles, members of the Legion embracing all classes who have learned from experience. Also the Legion knows all about the exâ€"serviceman from all viewâ€" f If the public read all the mewspapers, there must be very serious confusion in people‘s minds about what is happening to men leaving the serâ€" vices.~The Sudbury Star the other day had an editorial suggesting that the exâ€"servicemen had ~tooâ€" much cash too soon after their discharge. This left the exâ€"serviceman, the editorial said, a very likely. victim of the many racketeers now centring on men from the services. It also had the risk that the man himself might thoughtlessly run through his money and soon be in bad posiâ€" tion. Against this side of the case, there have been letters and other references in The Toronto Telegram and The Globe and Mail and other newspapers suggesting that servicemen were havâ€" ing difficulty in securing enough money to keep living in decency or comfort. There are local instances that seem to support both these opposâ€" ing claims. One serviceman in town is still waitâ€" ing, after waiting more than two months for a gratuity that was supposed to be paid in six weeks. Another local case was that of an exâ€"serviceman who was the prey of acquaintances until friends advised him kindly but firmly that he was being played for a sap and would soon have no money left. It seems an assured fact that a number of regular rackets have been established with the idea of separating the exâ€"serviceman from his money. The fact of the matter seems to be that in some cases the exâ€"serviceman suffers because he receives his money too soon and in too large amounts, as The Sudbury Star suggests. That, however, is not likely to be the common Case, so long as red tape exists as it does toâ€"day. There are more cases where returned men have to wait too long for their money. How to speed up the paying of gratuities, without creating other probâ€" lems, is the question that should be dealt with. The matter of rackets can be handled best by harsh treatment of any sneak thieves attempting to prey on the men who served. At least every case that reaches a newspaper should come to the attention of the authorities, and there should be prompt prosecution. A few jail terms would soon break up this form of mean racket, as well modetn hospital building is receivifig bexierous Vsupport in this part of the North. The week-end baseball match for the benefit of the Hosplt.al for Sick Children building fimd brought the generous donation of $1,000. The Canadian Young People‘s Club has donated $50.00 to the fund. These are only two specia.l evidences of the general feeling in the North. Probably the most striking evidence in the North in the way of regard for children is the array of wellâ€"equippâ€" ed schools. The Porcupine Camp, for example. spent literally millions of dollars for schools and equipment, much of it being expended before the camp attained high prosperity. South Porcupine for example, in the early days built one school that was known as "Vesty‘s Folly," because it seemed too large and expensive for the needs. It held that name only a short time, however, for soon it was seen that "Vesty" (Sylvester Kennedy)} who was chiefly responsible for its size and acâ€" commodation had no folly but rather vision and foresight. Toâ€"day that school is a monument to the faith and the farâ€"vision of Sylvester Kennedy. In 1917 there was talk here of the "big ideas‘"‘ of the Timmins public school board when the central school was being built. There were 80 pupils atâ€" tending the public school, and the new school was to accommodate four times that number. The school had scarcely been finished, however, before it was too small for the needs. In later days, with these lessons in mind, there was pracâ€" tically no question regarding the building of schools that were necessary in the Porcupine area. Few sections toâ€"day have better schools than the Porcupine can boast. The same is true of Kirkland Lake and other mining camps, while Iroquois Falls, Cochrane, Kapuskasing, New Lisâ€" keard, Haileybury and other centres in the North have good reason to be proud of their schools. The North, in the main, has also been fortunate in the quality of the teaching staffs, ao that education has a much higher place in this North than in most new countries. That is a matter for genuine pride. There is double value in anything done for the children. It is building for the future, while at the same time adding to the joy of the present. This is particularly true of such enterprises as the Hospital for Sick Children. The helping of siqgk or crippled youngsters and restorâ€" ing them to health is a blessing for toâ€"day and the building of a better toâ€"morrow.

It is not easy to go up to a classmate and say to her: ‘"Helen, can you tell me why the girls don‘t like me? Or the boys either? I want to be liked. I want to know what I do or say which keeps me out of things." Then it is still more difficult to take the truth and make it help you! If Helen should reply: "The girls think you are stuck up," or "The girls say you are too critical and sarcastic," what are you going to do about it? Are you going to hate Helen for life because she told you the truth? Or are you going to say to Helen, "I‘m sorry I give that impression. I don‘t mean to do it. I‘ll try to correct it." Yes, that is what you should say and what you should do!

GRA Beauty and You by PATRICIA LINDSAY In their book "An Introduction to Foods and Nutrition", Drs Henry C. Sherman and Caroline Sherman Lapâ€" ford, Columbia University, state: "Reâ€" garding the relation of nutrition to One of the facts now known is that no one food must be eaten to keep well. Other foods can replace what were formerly considered ‘must" foods. Also, as there are foods to which some individuals are allergic, other foods must take their place in the daily diet. Further, although we were all surâ€" prised at the number of rejections of young men for entrance into the armed forces of the United States in World War II as compared with rejections in World War 1, I must admit as Presidâ€" ent of a Medical Board in World War 1, our examinations were not as rigid or complete as in World War II and some opinion is the same as those who know best which is that when the exâ€" aminations are compared "the averâ€" age physique of recruits in â€"World War 1." How can we account for this imâ€" provement in physique despite the fact that the lives of more delicate childreén are now saved than was the case thirty or forty years ago?

The Speaker thinks that nine blind pigs make a unique experience. It may be so. But there have been times when Timmins has had more than nine blind pigs. There have been farmers in Mountjoy and Tisdale townships that have had blind pigs in past years. There used to be lots of them in the days of the Ontario Temâ€" perance Act. But no farm had more than the one blind pig. Indeed the number of eyeâ€"openers that came from the blind pigs of neighbouring townships was an eyeâ€"opener itself.
