Such a condition wa! not braught about by force alone rather by public opinion. Itk not maintained by force of arms but by public opinion. ThE strength that actualiy maintaim peace in this city is not simply tb desire of the rich to be protected from the poor, it is the righteou concern of man for his neigh- bour's weltare. It is the realizatiori of God'ç truth, that man must love bis tel- low, that wiil eventually bringa more settled condition to the world. The truth is not a theor- etical thing. Lt involves protect- ing others from footpads by force. Lt also means supplying others with food. No one will deny that the United States is a good neigh- bour on both counts. As the song goes, let us praise the Lord and pass the ammun- itian. And more than praise Hin, let us sweat blood ta carry out His commandment. Doing this we can have faith that the jugger- naught with the evil drivers can- not bring about the end o! the world with atamic catastrophe. Because these drivers try only to confound their neighbours we know they are evil. The day has not corne to the- orize about a.mankind so perfect that police will be unnecessary. Work with ail your might, hope with your faith in God's truth, for the time wben world opinion will accept a world police. That time will come. And that sec- tion of the community, known as Canada, will possess some small kudos.

Ed. Cain, who is weli enough ta trav- el about the village once mare; Harny Neals, wbo is stili far tran well; Harry Carter and Mrs. Bul Hackwaad are stili in haspital. Speaking of bospitais, iA isa wonden some of the summer tour- ists who sajourn in this vicinity dan't end up there, they way they wander aimlessly in the middle of the roads adjacent ta the viii- age. We have often noticed as many as eight strolling along abreast o! each other, on Highway No. 35. t would not be so bad or a straight stretch of road, but why same o! them haven't beer killed on the sharp curves soutli o! Pontypool is a mystery. On Sundays, these people wiii Park their cars on the road easl of tlie village, around the pond in such a manner that other cars can scarceiy pass along safeiy. Their whole attitude seems to be one of arrogance toward the general travelling public. As though, just because they are in a position ta enjay a-holiday, every- Sone else sbould cater to their whims. In some cities- people are pen- alized for jay-walking. Many of us wQuld like ta see something ot the sort carried out bere, so as ta bring these thougbtiess, dis- courteous, arrogant people to their senses. We actuaiiy saw a man, about 45 years o! age, stand -four teet from the raad shoulder and dare a mota.rist ta run bim down.. The matorist was forced to stop because of a car coming in the 'opposite direction, which prevented him tram swinging out araund the saucy pedestrian. This haPPened on the sharp grade and curve north of Chapman's Miii. On a recent evening we saw two people walk up the sidewalk tp a h ouse. After being in the bouse [for a wbile they came out, and in spite of the tact that the shades of nigbt wene falling, these two fugitives trom a booby batcb marched right down the middle o! the road. If a motorist had came over the bill at thirty miles an hour lie wouid have bad to work fast not to run tbemn down. We know these sanie people would not attempt this sort of thing in the large centres where they have their permanent homes, then why do it here? In conversation with other *Permanent residents of this area, *we notice there is a tendency ta- ward a desire for strong police action in the future. Perbaps next year! We hear the yaung people drove out and charivaried Porter and Louise Mitchell a few nights ago. Being oid, we didn't go. While fencing, flot fan tram the Federation Campsite, in June, one a! aur belpers dug up a heavy piece o! netal about 8½, inches in length, one inch broad, and an eighth of an inch thick. It had the foilowing inscription stanped on it: "H. Castie, 118 George St. Pet. I an H. Castle's dog, Bur- leigh. Wbose dog are you?" Our guess is, the metal tag was once fastened to a dag collan adorning the neck of a hound. But, bow did it get where we found it and howv long ago? t appeans to be made o! either silver or nickel, as it is nat nusty, just tarnished. Must have been a big dog to carry a heavy name plate like this. One way to obtain information wauld be ta inquire at the ad- dress on the tag. Maybe we will! The bail starm that struck this area a couple o! weeks aga, played liavoc with several fields a! ta- bacco. t is reparted that damage might run tramn 25 to 90 per cent in individual fields. Even thaugh the crop is insured against hail, we imagine that some growers wili lose heavilv. Owing ta so many of aur local men warking at Gen- eral Motors, the Dept. o! High- wvays, Goodyear, C.P.R., etc., it is a wonder that the farmers are able ta secure enough belp ta garner their harvests. Scotty Moffat made our eyes bulge the other day, when bie showed us some lake traut caught in Lake Simcoe, off Oro Beach. What Scotty didn't know, until we told him, was that yours truiv liv-ed an the third onesio f .1.A* - .,Jflfl * ~ n t, t t> tJ~ A * ILS, Auj> road running north f rom Shanty Bay Post Office up past the sta- tion. It is a long time since we have had a peep at one of these finny beauties peculiar to Lake Simcoe. We well remember when Kempenfeldt Bay would freeze in the wintertime and when the ice was soiid enougb, seeing fish- ing shanties dotting the ice. Scotty is thé tirst person we have met in this locaiity in thirty yearsi who ever mentioned Oro Beach. The magic words that immedi- ately reieased a flood of happy memories. For, it was in Oro Township that we became ac-1 quainted with some of the finest people we have ever met. We had the pleasure of having some of these same people visit us a couple of months ago. And, if we are spared, we will be seeing tbem up Oro way when our holi- days roll around in about two montbs' time.
