Religion has pro- vided citizens with moral strength, à code of conduct and faith that has helped ta, build their character and given them a sense of responsibility and rnuch more. In aur opinion, today, with sa many lacking religious teach- ing, conviction and a church home, a vacuumn exists in the mînds of many. of aur young people. They have noth- ing ta bang onto and are mixed Up. They don't believe in anything, have no guidelines ta follow and na one ta turn ta for advice and counsel. Any religlous program makes a wotbwhile contribution if it provides positive assistance in giving its sup- porters sornething ta believe. Surely, -it would be much better for citizens of any age ta be attending evangelistic services no rnatter how wild they were, than ta be fequenting the disco- theques, the pool moims or beverage rmomns. There certainly are weaknesses in religions, but tbey are inconsequen- tial compared ,to 'the overaîl good that cornes frorn cburcb associations. Tbat's wby we reiterate that any- thing sucb as that "Seven Days" item mentioned above is only adding ta the pmoblem by discounting religions, preachers and evangelists, flot just "faith healers," at a time when there is a great need for more religion not less. earing Shoreline ta ask if the Ontario Municipal Board, in allowing this valuable lakef mont property ta become an industrial site, took into consideration the broader public interest. Was the board aware of the govemn- ment's shoreline acquisition policy? Wbat bas happened ta this policy? The government was ta spend $10 million annually on land acquisition. In the 1964-65 fiscal year it spent only $917,000, and in 1965-66, just over $1 million, for land primamily along Lake Erie. The lakefront west of Toronto bas ail but gone into private bands. Indus- try is flow moving east of the city, gobbling up not anly waterfront, but also rie;- farmland as well, in the tmagic manner af the disappearing Niagara f ruit belt. Damlington township itself bas 5½h miles of lakefront pmoperty emaining, of wbich two miles are already zoned for industrial purposes. If Queen's Park was true ta its policy it would be progrî-m in earnést and iïmm'ediately acquire this and other properties be- fore tbey are lost ta the public forev- er. Tbe disappearance of Lake Ontario from public view anci enjoyment is a disgrace ta this province. The respon- sibility rests with Queen's Park. -Toronto Daily Star Canada's flrst farmer was Louis Hebert, who lu 1617 patient- ly plowed the rocky soil of hlm littie garden just outside Samuel de Champlaln's struggling colony of Quebec. was not subject to Church tithes.

Years later, when Canada evolved from ,a fur to a tlmber economny, agriculture contlnued to be discouraged.

At least, that was my im- pression while visýting the Club at the weekly dinner meeting, May 2nd, in the Flying Dutchrnan. Besides a steak dinner, and brief business session which was mainly concerned with a forestry projeet at the Kiwanis Park, we en- joyed a travelogue, with colored slides Dy Bill Jewell, a dairy farmer, near Tyrane, in Darlington Township. Mr. Jewell accompanied the show- ing of the slides witb suitable corn- mentary, in a quiet voice that did not always carry as far as your scribe's place, and although he patiently re- peated the information, when request- ed, a fellow hates like the devil to be the only one to keep asking "wotcba say?" Sa, if Mr. Jewell should notice sorne sligbt discrepancies in this ac- count of bis excellent travelogue, be must put it down to my lack of audio perception, due to bis dulcet tones. He showed us a picture of a lady in a bathing suit, and I was just going ta ask "wbo's the good looker?" when he said "my wife!" After that close shave, I was cautiaus with the ques- tions. Last winter, Mr. and Mms. Jewell visited Mexico and brougbt back a wealth of information about that country. Most commentators show a slide, then bore the audience with too fulsome comments, but Bill was terse ta the point that made bis audience seek more information. An intelligent man hirnself, he presumed his audience was likewise, thus, did not expose a picture too long, or waste bis breath on the obvious. Mexico City bas many parks, one of which is visited by a million people on almost any Sunday afternoon. In this city, there are beautiful buildings, fine streets, splendid shop- ping centres; many arcbitecturally lovely churches, principally belonging ta the Roman Catholic faith (the pre- dominant religion of more than ninety per cent of the population). One office building of forty two stories, is tbe bighest in Nort 'h America because it was built on an elevation of seven thousand feet above mean 'sea level. and Spice By Bill Smiley THIS FAMILY TAXES US ALL .Ail across Canada these days, municipal councils have been wrest- ling witb the arçh-villain of ail time, a mysteriaus morister called The Bud- get. Altbough be is made up from a cambinatian , of concrete tbings like sewers and schools and streets, The Budget bimself is an abstract tbing.. He is like The Devil. You can't see him or bear bim or even smell hirn. You can't reaily understand him, but you know be is there: a blind, malignant creature that cannot be controlled. You caià f ight bim - and geL a bloody nase. You can bammer at bim, chisel at birn, chop at bim - and al you get are a broken bammer, a dul chisel and a blunted axe. The Budget is like an octopus. He grows bigger every. year. His appetite increases, bis tentacles become longer and stronger and more strangling as he grows. And when you try to corne te grips with him, he exudes a cloud of black (or red) ink which obscures him from view. 0f what ingredients is The Budget composed? RealIy, he's a two-headed monster, a regular Siamese twin. On the one hand, it is just a big bundle of sugar and spice: new schoois; new industries; a new library or com- rnunity centre; wider streets; better ligbting, sewage disposai and snow plowing. Progress, cultu *re, civilization, camfort. At first glance iL appears that The Budget is the mast desirable tbing man bas dreamed up since The Devil. And an the ather band, he is snags and snails and puppy-dog tails. That's wbat lite towns are made of. And big towns too. And the reason for ail this, of course, is that Tbe Budget, this big, ugly, uùnmanageable brute who is irn- pevius ta human feeling, feli in love b1y somne chemirral accident, while a mere. hulking lunk of a boy, with a girl called Mielly Rate.

If your town considers this au the praper way to sign etreets, they are behind in their tbinking. Many towns even indicate wben the speed lim- iL changez when you leave town. No doubt the town will have an excuse or reamon for this condition, but as they and their police accept no excuses framn the tax-paying and niotoring-public, we the motoring and taxpaying public cannot accept excuses fron tiern rea"ding any condition of iii nature. in clouhi mal 1 "y that She is just as unprepossessinjs' hem husband.

Such a degradation of the higbest af- fices in the land is bound La bave a detrimental effect an the quality of candidates who will permit tbemselves La be ridiculed by their prospective constituents or opponents. This candi- ion is not only regrettable, it is dan- geraus because Ottawa must bave the best men abtainable in ail parties for good government. We bave talked ta quite a number of Members of Parliament wbo are filled with disgust and apprebension aver the entire proceedings. They- are most hopeful that something by way of respect for Parliament and those wbo occupy those seats in the House af Commons may be salvaged. But, at the moment, most of Lhem witb wbom we have discussed the situation would like nothing better than ta retumn ta private life, away from the mud and indignities that are being beaped upon their beads.
