SILENCE IS GOLDEN To some people a quiet “no” vote.on the hos- pital plebiscite will be golden — they will have a few dollars personally each year, or it will appear that way. But how much will they save if they have a member of the family or a good friend in hospital in another city. A few trips by car to visit at a hos- pital could literally eat up any saving in a very short time, not to mention the inconvenience and lost time involved. f Everyone hopes they will not need the facilities of the hospital, and we are no exception, but everyone has a duty to his fellow man, in his well-being, and it is our obligation to see to it that facilities such as a hospital are available for him as well. The five per cent sales tax for hospitals was.a necessity but let’s not delegate all our “giving” to governments —— let us take pride in giving on our own. Then, and only then, “Silence will be truly Golden,” to a cheerful giver. For the interest of our readers elation are submitting an article on the school art program. We are indebted to. Miss'C, Proud- foot, art specialist at the Stanley The School Art Program Is a Creative Activity It is being recognized more and more everywhere in the adult world that all people are creative, and that the potentiality of artistic expression is found in all of us. : People, however, to be crea- tive must be given some train- ing, have sufficient leisure time ané be in an atmosphere condu- Sive to artistic effort in order to produce work that shows quality and interest when view- ed by other people. Self expression is the basic characteristic of creative activ- ity. ‘Through self expression the Student. may clarify his world and his personal relationship to it, His experiences are deepen- ed and thelr meanings are made uniquely his own. Artistic creation leads to great- er emotional maturity and a new appreciation of human values. SMALL COLLEGES NEED FUNDS E. G. Hansell, Social Credit member of Parlia- ment for Macleod, made a plea in the House of Commons recently for funds for small colleges. A plea with which this paper agrees. He expressed the fear that when the National Council of Canadian Uni- versities starts to administer the funds which are soon to be provided to it, “small colleges may be left out in the cold.” We fear so too. In this day of booming university enrolments, it is becoming the case of he who'can shout the loud- est for money, getting the most of it. The loudest . call is put up by the large universities, and it is they who are receiving the answers. Numbers, denoted by people, have a strong effect on Ottawa’s ability to hear; small colleges crying in the wilderness just aren’t heard. : Thus, the small colleges are left to find funds where they can. Even though close to eight extra bil- lions of dollars is to be appropriated to the council, small colleges and technical and agricultural insti- tutes must continue to survive with monies obtained from congregations, interested donors, and industrial firms. Surely this is an “oversight” by the federal government that can be corrected. As Mr. Hansell says: “some of our young peo- ple, while desiring to think properly, also desire to use their hands.” It is those students who are at- tending agricultural and advanced technical schools to whom he refers. For their colleges need money just as baldy as any other institution of higher learn- ing. Small colleges which try to educate the person- ‘ality as well as the.mind can attempt to run on 2 shoestring, but unless financial help is soon forthcom- ing from the council, these small colleges will disap- pear from the Canadian scene. The problem is clear then: either the federal government does something about the fact that all institutions of higher learning need funds immedi-. ately in order to operate as well as is desired, or else the Canada of the not-too-distant future suffers for the present lack of action. The problem is stated... the answer lies with Ottawa. TELEVISION SALES and SERVICE : @ RADIOS — RECORD PLAYERS @ T.V.

An active interest in drawing, painting, carving, craftwork will enrich the students’ lives as nothing else can do. They will develop a new awareness of ev- erything around them.
