Greetings from our Federal Member W. G. Dinsdale, M.P., Brandon—Souris I am happy to greet through the pages of this Souvenir Hand Book all the good friends of the Killarney and Turtle Mountain Districts and to commend the fine community spirit that has made possible the observance of the Gold and Diamond Jubilee. The slogan “from coal oil to atom” has been aptly chosen. It does indicate the tremendous material progress that has been made during the past 75 years. In many respects our spiritual progress has lagged behind development in material things. I feel that the continued healthy development of communities such as Killarney is essential to the maintenance of a proper balance of the material and the spiritual in our complex and modern life. Yours sincerely, Walter Dinsdale, M.P. Brandon—Souris Constituency
