As almost every newspaper and periodical has had some comment on the recent noise made by Quebec's Separatists we felt our two cents worth might complete the picture .especially so as it has been demonstrated again just last week in our own district how completely uncalled for such a movement really is.At last week's 25th anniversary ceremonies at the Union Carbide plant in Beauharnois, Val- leyfield\u2019s Auxiliary Bishop, Mgr.Percival Caza, presided at the flag raising and later on addressed the gathering of plant officials and guests.One of the points Mgr.Caza emphasized, and which surely is very much contradictory to any separatist movement, was the cooperation and friendship which exists between the two different language and ethnic groups in the province and which was again very much in evidence at this anniversary celebration.Mgr.Caza expressed the wish that more of this type of friendship should exist elsewhere throughout the world.The Bishop described the flag raising ceremony as a symbol.of \u201cA Union of people of different languages and creeds\u201d, Then there are a number of other factors, in our own area in particular, which show conclusively that Separatism cannot be regarded as a serious, or even less, a \u201cBurning Issue\u201d.In Valleyfield and Beauharnois for instance the Rotary Clubs are the best example of how the two groups work together and enjoy each others company.Then there are the Valleyfield Boating Club, the Golf and Country Club, in Beauharnois the BeauChateau which was built very much on THE VOLUNTEER WORKERS OF THE gnerionce, 2oired i sone THIRD FEDERATED CHARITY CAMPAIGN |: at under his able guidan- THE ST.LAWRENCE a French-English cooperation and desire to give the area a golf and curling club; there\u2019s the MO- (JO Curling Club in V'field and many more orga nizations which reflect the excellent cooperation between the two groups.A recent guest speaker, Miss Doris Clark, Radio Gommentator and writer, at a social function organized by the Women\u2019s Auxiliary of the Valleyfield St.Ignatius Guild, remarked the following morning on her radio program how very much impressed she had been by the way English and French speaking members of this organization worked together.She felt it to be a real example fo those who claim \u201cthe French and English speaking Canadians can\u2019t get on together\u201d.And finally a quote from another Weekly Newspaper in Quebec, the Lakeshore News, which writes under the heading \u201cQuebec is Quebec\u201d : \u201cSo somebody wants to turn Quebec into a country all its own ! In the first place Quebec is already a country all its own, a part of Canada, true, but so individual, so full of its own verve and character, that \u2018it stands -by itself.Quebec is to Canada what Wales is to England .beautiful, unpredictable and exciting\u201d.Surely these and other factors throughout the Province ape more.than adequate testimony that in this day and age there, is no place for such .outdated ideas as Separatism.THOUGHT OF THE WEEK _ The secret of happy marriage js simple : just keep on being as.polite to each other as you are to your best friends.\u2014 Robert Quillen ce, the Federated Charities Cam- \u2014 \"corporation\u2019s The Federation Charities Drive last year obtained 72% of.its objective, but the 1960 Campaign is a thing of the past.We must think of the 1961 Campaign which will take place June 25th to July 8th.We are fortunate in having Dr.Paul Charest, of Maple Grove as General President in Charge.Jt will \"be Dr.Charest\u2019s third Campaign.In 1959 he assumed the duties of Regional President, and in 1960 hé was General President in charge of the Soiith Shore Communities.With the Finest Chinese & Canadian Dishes Restaurant Kwong - Corriveau Inc.STARTING AT 11 AM DAILY AIL 76 ST.CECILE \u2014 VALLEYFIELD \u2014 FR.32112 EER BEWARE -Fow=r WHEN OPERATING SHOVELS or DERRICKS PLAY IT SAFE WITH YOUR EQUIPMENT.AND YOUR LIFE!

Manitoba, 17; Nova Scotia, 14; Saskatchewan, 10: and Prince Edward Island, 6 In the second race, where the yardstick is numerical increase, British Columbia and Alberta will have to take back seats to both Ontario and Quebec.The field is narrowed to these four provinces which, according to March 1 estimates, have contributed 85 per cent of Canada\u2019s population during the decade.SHORT CENSUS FACTS Canada has the distinction of taking the first \u201cmodern\u201d census.This was the Census of the Colony of New France in 1666, ordered by Louis XIV.It recorded a population of 3,215, compared with an expected 18,- 200,000 this year.Answers given to the census taker are strictly confidential.Every census taker is under oath not to reveal a single item about any individual, under penatly of fine, imprisonment of both.For the 1961 Census, Canada will have 1,336 census commissioners and about 26,000 census takers.Each census taker will travel from door to door collect- le en Another thing a good father takes time out for is a Insurance Brokers noe.FAMILY SECURITY CHECK-UP nois was the scene of a meeting of Insurance Brokers on Ju- Ba ne 12th.They are the members If it isn\u2019t a ball game it\u2019s a parade, or a picnic.It takes time of the Insurance Brokers Asso- b d fath ciation of the Province of Que- to be a good father.bec, Valleyfield District.But being a good father also calls for time out\u2014for only WHAT IT IS AND Fondly ty ° Mr.Wilirid Brazeau explain- an hour or so\u2014to make sure that the financial provisions WHAT IT DOES FOR YOU Check-Up \u20ac regulations as ap- ;
