rwuhei jil thomas ajsoeite editw rural fall fairs the fall fair season is here this is a tradition of canadian life it is hoped will not soon disappear todays fall fair is confused often by the inroads of socalled concessions which seek by every known means to separate the unwary from his money but the real fall fair spirit still is present above and beyond these other influences we are not speaking here of the large urban centre fairs we are thinking of the smaller displays lasting perhaps at the most a couple of days many of them only one they are gatherings which serve to build pride in ones calling in ones home district in ones chosen field of endeavor they are occasions when friends can meet pnd share opinions and admira tions they are good for the community and good for the individual some of the richest memories of those who have built our land centre around the fall fair could take leaf from american book possibly there is too much ballyhoo in united states politics perhaps this phase of their election campaign is overdone but nevertheless we believe that canadian politics could take a leaf from the american political book and add a little more color and drama to canadian politics to good advantage we agree with the toronto telegram who voiced the opinion that the lack of ballyhoo was whats wrong with our canadian politics theres no use denying that canadian politics are boring and lack the zip to gain the interest of the masses one only needs to note the interest given by canadians in general to the american political con ventions just concluded we doubt if any canadian event of similar nature ever received half of the pub licity accorded by local newspapers radio and tv even provincial dailies despatched special representa tives to chicago to cover the antics true a great many of our citizens frown on the grandstand activities of us politics one weekly the exeter times suggests that canadians are jealous and we too suspect that canadians find in american politics the colorful the action and fighting vigor theyd like to see in their own country naturally most dont admit it because they want to be different from the neighbors to the south instead of criticising american politics too severe ly canadians might take a careful look at their own situation opposition parties both federally and pro- vincially are woefully weak in local municipal politics one can hardly find enough volunteers for the jobs we have no reason to look down our noses at the united states ballyhoo we could do with some of it from sea to sea this week down in quebec province canadas biggest family party is being held it first got that name when it was staged in toronto in 1954 and the label has stuck attending the party are close to 500 persons mostly members and their wives of the worlds biggest press association the canadian weekly newspapers association canada has close to 800 nonmetropolitan weekly twiceweekly and triweekly papers and the large majority of them pay dues ranging up to 75 per year to support their national newspaper association in ontario alone there are over 200 weeklies it is true that the canadian weekly newspapers association has a few economic objectives and is con cerned to some extent with the over 25 million of ad vertising and printing its members produce each year but primarily it lives simply for the promotion of canadianism although its head offices are in toronto the asso ciations annual convention is held each year in a diff erent part of canada this year it is quebec in 1957 it will be banff alberta in 1958 halifax and to these conventions come the publishers and editors of not only the bigger journals but the little ones too the fundy fisherman of blacks harbour the fort sas katchewan recordthe altona red river valley echo the fort quappelle valley legend the osoyoos times and the similkameen spotlight names as pictur esque and as canadian as canada itself at their conference tables and their afterhour discussions editors of french english and foreign language papers men and women from rugged new foundland fishing villages from prairie grain lands and from industrial centres in ontario each year redis cover the common ties that bind them and their com munities into a canada that is truly one dominion from sea unto sea unsubsidized by government little heralded in the massey reports and seldom probed by sociologists we wonder if there is any single factor which looms larger in the development of a canadian culture than the annual gettogether of the weekly newspapers of this land this years allouette convention at murray bay will be their 37th lifesize statue of churchill the lifesize likeness of sir turc for canada and the prcm- winston churchill in solid butter will be the attraction of dairy lane in the coliseum at the canadian national exhibition this year the milk producers coordinating board has just an nounced that the work is now under way on the sculpturing sir winston graciously gave his permission for this display quite recently the dairy producers in the province of ontario have pon- sorcd this butter modelling ex hibit for the past six years and have modelled likenesses of hrh queen elizabeth and her horse winston the hon t u kennedy the rt hon j g gardiner minister of ajricul- ier of ontario hon leslie frost as well as several other well known persons the image modelled from solid butter requires about 300 lbs of first grade creamery butter sculptor donald stewart of van couver estimates that this ex hibit will take him approximate ly 105 hours to complete mr stewart is head of the sculptur ing department of the vancou ver school of art and has done work on public buildings in vancouver and toronto the exhibit will

that old friends are best the belief is widespread that no matter how worthy new friends may be they can never come up to those we knew long ago the memory of old friends bring warmth to the heart be cause we have so much sentiment in our makeup it takes very little to make us nostalgic to cherish old friends is a worthy trait but i want to say something about new friendships even those formed in mature years our earliest friendships are generally accidental we were thrown in close fellowship because we lived on the next farm or in cities and towns have all kinds of opportunities for spend ing money long before they have had any real experience in earn ing money as soon as a child is old if a boy is paid for carrying out ashes or shovelling a walk or mowing a lawn or a girl is given money for dusting or for washing dishes or making beds the son or daughter in the house will come to think that thev need enough to go into stores with nevcr heip wuh the work un his mother he observes her

that mother and daddy place money in a special class a small boy who has been allowed to play with keys and other small trin kets in his mothers purse opens it from curiosity and takes out the money

barristers on the same street or went to the same school it was almost i gestions which parents can try i inevitable that such proximity should create friendships but out in teaching their child the i itedriw we had little choice in the matter we did not select these first j value and wise use of money lj en friends we were thrown together the friendships of later life are deliberate we choose them because they have character qualities which appeal to us we like the way they think and act and enjoy being with them it is common knowledge that when people leave home and live elsewhere for say five or ten years then return they are often surprised and disappointed to find that the old friends are not nearly so congenial as they once were the chief reason is that each has developed but very often the development has been in different directions and at a different rate no one is to blame for this it has just happened that tastes have changed for no one remains the same in a world like this a toronto church calls itself the home of friendship and it is a worthy boast for surely a church ought to be a place marked by goodwill and friendliness at the same time endur ing friendships are not formed simply by people being thrown together and invited to eat doughnuts and drink tea or coffee it is true however that when groups do assemble an opportunity is afforded all to meet others which may bring about rich and lasting friendships we need to make new friends if for no other reason than that the old ones are dropping out for a long time i boasted that i never read the obituaries in newspapers no sir give me world happenings editorials or the sporting page but lately i have begun to read obituaries and i nearly always find the name of someone i knew more or less intimately i read the list with a little embarrassment it makes me feel the same as when some one gets up and gives me a seat in a streetcar i rather resent it how are we to go about making new friends some make friends easily they do it graciously and without selfconscious ness others find it extremely difficult in the main however it is true that if we show ourselves friendly we still find friends the old illustration comparing life to looking into a mirror is true the scowling person sees a scowling reflection and a happy cheerful person meets a happy face making friends is one thing keeping them is another friendship like a lamp must be nourished a selfcentred person cannot keep friends because he is unwilling to pay the price which the relationship calls for lord macaulay once wrote to his sister i have hosts of friends but there are not more than half a dozen the news of whose death would spoil my breakfast the great historian was thinking of acquain tances rather than friends then again friendship with an intellectual like macaulay would not be possible for very many for ordinary people friendship is an absolute necessity and as time takes its toll and removes so many we iriust learn to form new bonds and there is every reason to believe that they will be as enduring and precious as any we have ever known our ability to form and maintain new friendships is a test of character here is what the late frank crane had to say about it it is a distinct thrill to me to form a new friendship it keeps me young for it keeps me hopeful and gives me the feeling there are still many pages in the book of life which i have not turned perhaps the very richness of our nature depends upon our capacity to form new friendships let us keep young by making new friendships and as far as possible retaining old ones j our quotation today is by dr frank crane loue is not blind the eyes of love are the only ones that really see a child can only learn to use money well by experience just as he learns to write by writing or play the piano by practising on it around the time he is old enough to count to keep track of coppers and nickles and dimes he should be given a regular weekly allowance the amount depends on the fathers income the childs age exper ience the average amount his chums have to spend in a week a six or seven year old might be given five or ten cents a week the little child should not be forced to keep accounts if i towards a fool and his money are soon parted george buchanan once said john wesley advised his followers to make all they could save all they could and give all they could mothers and fathers realize that in a true home love and generosity and imagination and many other gifts of heart and mind cannot be purchased but at the same time they want to train their children in the wise use of money how well are you suc ceeding in this perplexing part of your childs education copyright bruce h grose ba barrister solicitor office
