Beauty and joy for all who sec, A home for birds ta bide a wee, Grateful shade for you and me; These we plant when we plant a tree." Our good Editor's articles dur- mng the past winter, one on "Re- forestation efforts near Ponty- pool" and another on "Public- spirited citizens buying sub-marg- mnal land as conservation," impel us to beg him to cast his eyes southward and behold the trans- formation which has been taking place witbin binocular vicw of bis own office. Here is the story af the trees at "The Cove"-one of those simple tales of faith and courage which are being rçpeated over and over again in the countryside of this Canada of ours.. In April 1914, two hundred elm and bard maple trees and some fifty specially selected fruit trees were planted on a naked farm frontage. A summer of record drought followed; not one drop of ramn fell from May 24 tili August 22. The maples and elms were saved only Li being fed wîth wa- ter hauled Up a 20-foot bank from Lake Ontario. During the winter rabbits destroyed the fruit trees by gnawing the bark below the grafts-a pitiabje end. Then followed the years when it was a case of "And so bold on when there is nothing in you ex- cept the will which says to you 'hold on.'" Thoughtless picnick- ers chopped maples for firewood; a teamster backed bis wagon over the prize elm; bunters swept away some 25 sturdy trees by fires set in the grasses of the second marsh; joy-riding 'visitors careencd their car into a vigorous maple; record high water worried 50 willows and silver maples on the west lim- its; and finally a grass fire scorch- ed off eight hundred littie 5-year- old government seedlings behind Chequers. Meanwhile cottagers were quiet- Top Prices Paid For Local Grown Produce Wo wlll gladly purchase large or sinail quantities, FRESH FRUIT AND VEGETABLES DAILY F RE E Delivery Service -ANY PLACE IN TOWN - MceFEETERS' BROTHERS FRUIT STORE The Store WIth Service aud Clvllity Phone 674 44 King St. E ly working away.

Urge CeumlssIon Té Study Broadcasting Believlr«g that the establish- ment ai an independent regulatory body ta gov'ern radio broadcast- ing in Canada would be in tic best mnterests oaithI ndustry and ai the. general public and suggesting that necessarv changes b. studled by a Royal Commnission, the Asso- ciation of Canadian Advertisers has prescnted its views on radio broadcasting lu Canada lu a leng- thy telegrani ta the Parliamcntary Comiittee on Radio. The. telegrain was as fallaws: 'The Association af Canadian Ad- vertisers which is scheduled ta ap- pear on June 18th, has decided in view af other reprgetations ai- ready made and ta save yaur Cam- mittee's time, that a personal ap- pearance by its representatives is unnecessary. Wc wish, however, ta subinit the following. The Association ai Can.adian Advertisers is a voluntary organ- ization represcnting 145 compan- ies advrtising an a national or regional scale in Canada. It was founded in 1917 and is devoted ta Uic umprovement and promotion af good ad*vertising. Advertising la of benefit ta the general public for it makes pas- sible thc distribution oi goods and services at less cost by increasing thc volume of sales. Radio is an efficient tool ai ad- vertising only if it c'ommands a broad popular acceptance. Since the inception of Uic CBC much pragress bas been made in Uic me- chanics and the use of radio. There is criticism af the regulations and rulings which govcrn radio oper- ation under Uic rcgulatory pow- crs cxercised by the CBC over both the private and national sys- tems. Our members are equally inter- csted lu the welfarc af bath. sys- tems., Inasmuch as these two are in commercial competition, it wouid secm to us ta be marc equitable ta bath and in the best interests of advertising and the general public if a separate regu- latory body, independent of the CBC wcre cstablished ta goveru brôadcasting in Canada. Prcsent needs and future growth' suggcst that any necessary chan- ges might pcrhaps best be studied and detcrmined by a Royal Com- mission. Should such a body be establish- cd ta study revision of the laws re- lating ta broadcasting, Uien the Association ai Canadian Advcrtie- crs and its members offer it the benefit ai their practical exper- ience and knawledge."1 The praise of others may be af THURSDAT, JUlIE HOu, lU?.
