iimplre, llay iln 0'Leary School

-The pupils of the four class- rcoms of the 0iLcary school with

Bw”5”l their teachers had a big combined

celebration on May 23rd which is Empire and Citizenship Day. In response to the request of Canada's Primc Minister, the Right Hon. Louis St. Laurent. Empire Day and Citizeiisliip Day are to bc ct-nuncnioraied in the schools of our nation by a joint celebration. In that way is emphasized the fact that Canadians are citizens not only of Canada but of the Em- iiire as well, As children are mem- bers of ti family with father and inotlicr as heads. so Canada is a of a family of nations with King George the Sixth and Queen Elizabeth as heads. As a family has one name by which it is kiiown so has the family of iizitions i which Canada belongs.

Clauricttc MacNcill gavc the an- swer as "This family is called the British Commonwealth of Nations." Norman Kennedy gave the num- ber of grown-up nations belonging in the Commonwealth as follows: Grcai Britain. Canada. Australia. New Zcaland. Africa. India. Pakis- trui atvl (lcylmi. l

Eirzht pupils then represent the right iiidopcnclent nations of the (lommomvealth as follows: Bonita Adams. Great Britain: Calvin Car- riitliei'::.Ccylon; Lorraine MacDon- ald. Aiistralia: Eileen Saunders. Pakistaii; Jnrncs McKenzie, New Zrniand: William Mat.heson,lndia; Bctty MacKinnon and Marion Douccttc, South Africa and Can-

add.

The Principal. William Turner. a veteran of World War Two who saw much action overseas. espec- ially in the Italian campaign, then icd in the. special prayer, ”0 Fath- er of Unity. make this people one."

The pupils and staff then re- peated the Oath of Allegiance as follows:-"I swear that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to His Majesty King George the Sixth. his Heirs and Successors iccording to law. and that I will lnltlifiilly observe the laws- of Can-

, Mia and fulfil my duties as a Can-

adian citizen. so help me God."

The singing of "0 Canada" and the National Anthem brought this inspiring and meaningful program to a close. The childrcn repeated in unison:

"From fog:-houiid Neufoundlandls

bleak coast in far Columbials

shore. wakes a band of scattered homes and colonics no more.

Bl.'i a younz nation. with.her life full heating in her breast.

A noble future in her eyes--the Britain of the West. The Eng- lish honor. nerve

And pluck- the Scotsmanls love of right-the grace and courtesy of France .

The Irish fancy bright. So. in the long hcreafter. this Canada should be

The worthy heir of British power and British liberty"

The experts say lower profits from potato raising. an important Maine activity, contributed to the fact that Maine was the only state showing a decline in the past. year in farm land value. iThe dollar value of Maine's farm land decreased five percent from March 1950 to March 1951.)

The States of Arkansas. Louisiana. Oklahoma and Texas reported the greatest price gains. For the west. south central region as a whole for the year ending in March. the average gain in price was is per cent. The smallest average gain, four per cent, was reported in New England,
