PAGE TOU'»- TifECANAD!AN STATSMAN. DOWMANVILLE.ONTAMUO - iOUR VANISHING TREES Wehave watchcd with alarrm for the past several years the great aId shade trees bemng cut clown on Bowmanville streets. Thcy are seidoma replaced with a 3 oung tree. What is this pas- sioh that rules s0 many people, ta eut down and destroy and leave a barren spot where once a trec rose in beauty, givingi shade, attracting the birds? One has only to look at the raw devehopmcnts in bare fields ta sec what trees inean. When a trce has ta corne dlown an town streets by reason of aid age, it should be replac- ed, and it is no use hcaving it to the whim of the individua] ta do so, though a trea may be had free for the asking. Sinec the town is. giving the tree, it had better sce that it is plant- ed. To our mind, beautifying lhe boulevards is just as irn- 3 ortant a part of Roads and Streets work as paving or rnend- ing. Unhess the replacement of trees is put on this automatic, organized basis, a very few mnore years will sec aur down- town streets completely bare. The rcsuht is hidcously ugly P'nd raises the temperature by at least ten degrees in sum- mer. THIS LAND HAS GONE It is fortunate that there are peophe who love trees, who reahazt. their value, and work hard ta save them and plant more ta conserve soil and aid the water table. It is almost un- heard o! for a subdivision own- er ta preserve trees. Usually they are ruthlesshy torn aut by a bulldozer. It is ail the more wonder!ul, therefore, ta read o! the great lengths to which Mr. Spencer Clark has gone ta preserve trees In the Guildwood Village development near the Guild of AI Arts, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Clark. Streets have been phaniied around existing rows of trees. If a big tree is in the line of the road, the road bends arouiid it. Oh wisdom. What pletýsure ta read af-a man with such common sense and love of beauty. This is not ail Mr. Clark has donc. Last year he buîlt an 80 foot concrete groyne into the BY-Law No.206 7 :A By-Law Io Raise $ 125,000.00 Io Aid in the Construction of Tile, Stone or Timber Drains THE COUNCIL 0F THE TOWNSHIP 0F DARL.

PASSED THE 10th DAY OF JANUARY, 1957. Roy W. Nichols REEVE W. E. Rundle CLERK SEAL CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF DARLINGTON Take notice that the above is a true copy of a By-law passed by the Couneil of the Township of Darlington, on the 10th day of January, 1957, and all persons are required to take notice that anyone who desires to apply to have the by-law or any part thereof quashed must serve notice of his application upon the Head or Clerk of this Municipality within 20 days af ter the date of the last pilblication of this notice, and must make his* application to the Supreme Court of Ontario within one month after the said date. This notice was f irst published on the 17th day of January 1957, and the last publication will be on the 31st day of January 1957. W. E. RUNDLE, Clerk. TE Current and (...,onfidential By, Elsie Carruthers Lunney lake to keep the water from eroding the bluffs further. He plans to build four more, and already a beach has buflt up as the result of the first one. Why in the world are there not more people like this man, with sense and foresight. Ero- sion along Lake Ontario's north short is alarming, but it only alarms the few. Pictures of 50 years ago at our own East Beach, Bowmanville, show a whole apple orchard flourish- ing where now is empty space, the earth gnawed away by the constant rush of the waves. Once lawns sloped down to the water in front of the old cot- tages there. Fifty years is a drop in the bucket of time. The fact that the action of the wa- ter can erode many, many feet in that short space should alarm somebody, but it doesnt. Part of the old Lakeshore Road between Newcastle and Port Hope, a picturesque drive along an historie route, had to be abandoned a few years ago and a new plece built further inland because the erosion caus- ed by Iake waters made the old road unsafe. Why is the provincial government allowing farm land and cottage sites on this wonderful expanse of wa- ter to topple into that water and disappear forever? The building of groynes where the water is steadily eating away the land would be a highly sen- sible forni of conservation. Southern Ontarians are some- what like children set down in a paradise. It is only recently they have begun to realize that plans must be made to preserve water and earth and trees. Many have not seen the light yet, and all too frequently, as iii the Don Valley, authorities which could stop the destruc- tion are not aiding those who are putting up a wonderful fight to preserve park land and historie sites. The Bowmanville Rotarians participated in another adven. ture in inteÎnational contact worx at their regular nopn hour meeting Friday as slides accom- pan' ed by a tape recording from the Greymouth New Zealand Club wisked them away to a semi tropical land where it hasn't snowed in 25 Years and frost rarely occurs. Last fall the local Rotarlans made a similar tape recording and slides to send to the Grey- mouth Rotarian and tell of Bowmanville. Greymouth is situated. on the west aide of the South Island of New Zealand. As a river port ît has a population of 10,0oo with coal mining and other light Industries such as garment mak- ing being prominent in the town. As in any other town, sports ,play an important part with soc-, cer as the national game follow, ed by favorite pastimes such- as lawn bowling, boat racing, hunting and fishing. New Zealand is almog a hun- ter's paradise with wild game thriving so freely that much is i deciared to be pests. Through the 111 colour slides the, Bowmanville Rotarians were taken on a scenic tour of the South Island to see the end- less panorama of New Zealand landscape from the peaceful bays and silent glaciers to the swirling rivers and glant forests and from Mountain peak to j sandy beaches. 1 1 In closing the Greymouth Re- tarians urged Bowmanville i counterparts to visît New Zea-' land personally and experienee the splendid hospitality of this country thoyands of miles away. The tape recording program came to a close with the sing- ing of the New Zealand n'ation- al anthem ' "God Defend New Zealand". 1 President Bill Rudell coompli- mented Charles Carter and his International Contact Commit- tee who have been very active during the past year and have provided many interesting pro- gratns with Friday's being the- most colourful. Al Witherspoon who operat- ed the projector and tape re- corder 'Was also given a vote of thanks by the president. Bob Stevens again displayed his charmed touch by winrting the weekly hockey draw. Sec- ond winner in the draw was Tom Palmer. Visitors Visitors at the meeting were Brett Brentice, district govern- or nominee; Bill Carroll, Frank Butler and Gordon Hay, allýof the New Toronto Mimico Club., Being responsible for the com- ing district convention, the Mi- mico group's main purpose in visiting Bowmanville was to study the methods used bY the local club who were respon- sible for the convention last year. There were also four visitorQ. from the Oshawa club, Jack Lowery, George Slocombe, Wes Lý4ngmaid, and George Dry- nan.

Though we know they couldn't have been far away in the months since Fall, the sight reminds one of spring. It was around zero or below that morning, yet there were the hardy crea- tures flapping away over the woods in apparent unconcern. The Toronto Telegram has a fine venture in hand and is ask- ing for assistance in carrying it out. In this final week of the National Ballet, the Telegram wants to distribute as many tickets as possible to Toronto senior citizens. Think what such an outing would mean to many. Donations may be sent through Thomas Richard Henry at the Telegram. There are only two days left of the ballet, so speed is necessary.

Colbert, president of Chrysler Corporation, said in Toronto recently, pointing to Canada's expanding economy and record autornotive produc- tion in 1956. "For one thing," Colbert told the members of the Emý pire Club of Canada, "your population is growing so fast that by 1985, at the present rate of growth, therè will be near- IY 32 million Canadians-about twice as many as there are at present. "Besides the rapid growth of the Canadian population, there is the equally important fact that family incomes are rising ,and will continue to rise with the rapid development now taking place in the country." Pointing out that living stan- dards in a dynamie economy such as Canada's generally In- crease even faster than the Population, Colbert said busi. nessmen have to plan for the future with those rising stand- ards in mind. At the same time' private business managements in Can- ada and the United States "are confronted'with a world situation loaded with menace and hope," Colbert added, and one that calls. for "fore. sightedness, patience and res. traint on the part of all of us Who help to get work done in this part of the world." He said that - Chrysler of Canada which in the past three years has invested $55* million in new plants and equipment, in the same time has made sizeable gains in its share of the Canadian market. In 1956 the company produced 92,354 passenger cars. At the present time Chrysler of Canada em- ploys 11,000 people. It sells its cars and trucks through 1,200 independent dealers Who em- ploy over 20,000 people and in . 1956 the company bought over $150 million Worth of components, materials and services frorn approximately 450 Canadian suppliers. . "During the past year,11 Col- bert added, 'lit hais been very impressive to see the ý Canadian automotive industry scoring gains over its production in 1955, which was the biggest pre7 vious year- on the books." e "In most years the produc- tion of cars and trucks in Can. ada lias paralleled roughly the ups and downs of automotive production in the United States. But 1956 was a big ex- ception. With the production of motor vehicles in the States down nearly 25 per cent from the all-time high of 1955, Can- ada's automotive produdion showed a healthy gain of about four per cent over 195VI ý Colbert said that, "whfle we may not triple the number of passenger cars onour roads iný" the next 30 years, as YOU peo- ple in Canada are likely to do," ,the automobile industry in the United States is looking for a healthy growth during that period. "And from'your point of view this can only be good news, considering the tonnages of Canadian metals that go into our cars every year. "Consider, for example, the amount of aluminum being used in a contemporary automobile. At Chrysler Corporation alone we buy close to 100 million Pounds of aluminum a year. It maY be of some interest to you that Our new 1957 cars contain an average of 100 pounds of aluminurn for each fout-door sedan as compared with an average of 75 pounds for our 1956 models and an industty average of 45 pounds for ail 1957 models. "The use of aluminuni may increase at an even faster pace in the future as the result of new techniques of precision die-casting now being develop- ed.

Every Canadian is proud of the Festival and every Canadian who has attended will want to help finance the building re- placing the tent. We understand that only hall of the $1,500,000 needed has been subscribed. Large contri- butions have been, and we hope, will be made, but an accumula- tion of individual donations can mount mightily. Let's all put in a few dollars toward the finest Canadian venture in de- cades. We assume cheques and rponey orders should be made out to the Stratford Shakespear- ean Festival of Canada, as in ordering tickets. Address is 109 Erie Street, Stratford, Ontario.
