Telephone 744â€"6364. The Waterloo site is also closer to the farming community than Kitchener, where the vendors have offered their products with such success up to this point. Many of the regulars at the Kitchener Market are concernâ€" ed, if not downright unhappy at proposals for their relocation and are rumored debating the possibilities of setting up a market in St. Jacobs. Their willingness to use the Waterloo site will be investigated by Dr. J. Winfield Fretz, the Conrad Grebel College president whose links with the Mennonite community are firm and friendly. The freight shed can be transformed into a market building with minimum effort. Three acres will provide considerable parking space. Waterloo Square‘s ample parking facilities are a stone‘s throw across the road. Less than a stone‘s throw away is King Street and its trolley service. And a mere trot from the spot is the Twin City‘s only horse barn, where animals and buggies can be housed. In fact, his downâ€"toâ€"earth proposal is so good that one wonders why everyone hadn‘t thought of it earlier. He has now established that the CNR wants to sell its former freight shed at 136 Herbert St. and the adjoining threeâ€"acre property. His arguments about the suitability of the site for a market centre are undeniably sound. If Ald. Charles Voelker has his way, Waterâ€" loo‘s Market may rise again from its own rubble to blossom in youthful freshness in the heart of this city where it died six years ago. Ald. Voelker has suggested that Waterloo acquire the CNR property, whether or not it be turned into a market area. Its potential for development would seem to make it a wise inâ€" vestment for Waterloo, even if the market idea falls through. Either way the communiâ€" ty stands to gain. ~ Mrs. Maureen Williams retires this month as head of the children‘s department at the Waterâ€" loo Public Library. Her departure won‘t be marked by a 10â€"gun salute. Good children‘s libâ€" rarians, like good teachers, come and go quietly about their business. Mrs. Williams will be missed for a long time but she will be remembered for even longer. On behalf of all Waterloo‘s young readers The Chronicle thanks her and wishes her a joyful reâ€" tirement. We, too, shall miss her smile. Both make their greatest contributions to life without fanfare as they open new horizons to the seeking young and set them on the road to the rainbow. We all have known one or two such persons in our lives. They were interested enough in our interests and our future to give us that ounce of encouragement, or advice, or direction that oâ€" pened up a new world for us. We may never have thanked them but we have never forgotten. Mrs. Williams‘ dedication can best be sumâ€" med up in the words of one of her colleagues who said, "Every single child was important to her.‘‘ What praise could outshine that? With this philosophy Mrs. Williams watched the young dreamers (and no doubt the odd deâ€" mon), the studious and the frivolous, the capâ€" able and the impractical, the underâ€"privileged and the overâ€"privileged youngsters wander through her book shelves, all groping toward a manyâ€"sided dream. With her own special magic she strove to help them find it.

Are there 60 readers of The Chronicle willing to give five minutes of their time every 10 days to help a fiveyearâ€"old cerebral palsy victim. ~ The child, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Helmut Gottâ€" fried of 2â€"26 Ellis Cres. N., will require fiveminute exercises four times daily for the next three years. The exercise is very simâ€" ple but each application reâ€" quires three persons to adâ€" minister it. It is given at 10 a.m., 11.30 a.m., 4 p.m. and 7.30 p.m. daily. Mrs. Gottfried needs two perâ€" sons for the first two and one person for the last two, as her husband is home from work at this time. If you can afford this small portion of your time please call Mrs. Gottfried at 744â€"5820, or call The Chronicle, 744â€"6364 giving your name, phone number, and the times at which you can help and we will be happy to forward them to the family. Vacation periods have cut her regular 20 volunteers to 14. This means the same people have to return again and again to help out. â€" The articulate young may resent this comment but that still won‘t alter the fact that far too many in their age group seem inâ€" capable of expressing a simple idea. The exercises are not at all difficult and volunteers can be taught quickly how to assist. Men, women or teenâ€"agers can be equally helpful. Overheard at a Waterloo lunch _ counter: _ ‘"What‘s that?" said the customer pointing to an Italianâ€"lookâ€" ing dish in the glassâ€"enclosâ€" ed display area. ‘"I don‘t know but I‘ve got it written down,"‘ replied the waitress reaching into a cubby hole for a slip of paper. Schools today place great emphasis on encouraging young people to express themselves. * Why then, are such a large number of them so painfully _ inarticulate _ â€" more inarticulate proporâ€" tionately than those of preâ€" ceding â€" generations â€" who were, if anything, discourâ€" aged from airing their views. Philomena Rutherford‘s Bits and Pieces While the Davis governâ€" ment is passing reams of inâ€" teresting legislation, we beâ€" lieve it is missing the boat on one very important issue. Mr. Davis could attract thousands of votes to the Conservative camp by legâ€" islating an early end to summer. While this may seem a radical course of action, we feel the benefits to the genâ€" eral public would be~numâ€" erous. After all it seems everyone in this geographic area vacations at the same time, which leaves everyâ€" one with a solid month of hot weather and nothing to look forward to but another week at work. Mothers begin marking off the days on the calendar until the schools reâ€"open. Teachers wouldn‘t mind starting school earlier, since all they do in the summer is sit through boring summer schools lectures. _ Many would actually relish getting back to the thrill of combat. The playground leaders would welcome an early end to their duties as many have already come down with a severe case of "hopâ€" scotchers knee" and are suffering dizzy spells from playing too many circle games. We‘re not suggesting there‘s anything wrong with the vocabulary of youth â€" by and large. They‘ve got words aplenty: They just don‘t seem to know what to do with them or that words are merely a means to the end of expressing thoughts. They can take 15 minutes to explain the simplest thing and one is none the wiser at the end of the exercise. Can it be they‘ve been listening to some politicians who have perfected the art of talking without saying anyâ€" Oldtimers have _ long known that Waterloo had a winning way but now even newcomers are falling unâ€" der its spell. The powerful snowmobile lobby would enjoy an early end to summer since they haven‘t got any will left to pin the talker down. And surely this isn‘t what young people are aiming for.
