A. Forrester, Publisher 'rtitirsday, November 10th, 1938 The demands otf society for soft hands may have something to do with the increased production of leather gloves, especially for cy- cMssts and motorists. More than likely the workmen who depend upon the protection of leather from: their rough work used1 most of the seven million pains otf leather gloves made in 1936. Total' traffic through the Canadian and United1 States locks of the Sault Ste. Marie Canals in 1907 increased 26 per cent, over the 1936 traffi'C. Iron ore which is by far die heaviest commodity, reach- ed: a new high record, surpassing the previous recoud of 1929. Coal shipments increased 5.6 per cent, and wheat declined1 39 per cent. The traffic through the Welland Ship Canal showed) 'an increase of 12.5 per cent, and thrcn^jsi^g Sit. Lawrence, system, 11 per cent. New License Markers view of the controversy that naged over the Province of Ontario over the visibility of the 19018 plates it is to be hoped that the De- partment of Puiblilc (Highways has been iCaretful in its1 choice of color combinations so that even the most casual motorist will not hove to strain, his eyes 'to catch the number of a passing vehicle. During 1938 there has been so much criticism that it will be most refreshing if the 1939 'Ontario pliâtes, which have white num- erals and letters on a jet black background, win favourable atten- tion. Because of'its choice off colours in 1)938 the government was forced to bear the brunt of m'treh rid io.u'ie. The 193)9 markers for Ontario will not bo -much different than the 1938 Quebec markers in that the former,.will be;Mack, -and white, while the latter are black and silver. It, is announced) that the new pates have been, designed more for durability than toward the artistic trend' which prevailed this year. It is more than likely that the government will not make the same maistiake again. :%U, ' IF Youth Hostels There are thousands and thousands of people in this, Dominion who have hiked', but it has been mainly in the outlook for work. Somehow or other this is not a country of walkers or hikers for pleasure. We build highways for cars but leave the, pedestrian out of account, and a walk along a country road is robbed of much of its pleasure in dodging automobiic-s. Despite the handicaps, however, hikers and cyclists appear to be increasing in number*â€"so much so that the movement for youth hostels is on the way. Ndw impetus is being given to hiking in Can- ada by a movement known as the Youth Hostels Association, already registered in a. number of countries. The aim of youth hostels is everywhere the sam:efâ€"to enable young people to enjoy hiking and cycling in the beautiful outdoors of Europe and (North America; to enable you I It to find 'wholesome companionship along the road, trav- elling inexpensively,:' land acquiring a knowledge of their neighbor’s land and custom- as well as their own. One of the codes of the hikers is that they pledge tin rnselves to leave the countryside nnmarred as a result of their travel in it. The yo'uth hostels' idea, began in Europe in 1911, as the prac- tical dream of a German schoolmaster. Since its inception, youth in millions upon the open roads of Europe have advanced youth hostelling from a national to aw international influence. In 1930 -hostels were opened in England ; in 1933 one opened in. Canada, and in 1934 the movement spread to the United States. Today there are thousands of hostels in forty different countries with several mi (lions of members. As youth hostels concern themselves not at all with the religious) or political beliefs, or social positions of members, the movement, more and more is lessening racial distinctions. (So far Canada has but a dozen or more hostel's and a scant hun- dred members. The first youth hostel it Canada was opened in the foothills of Alberta, and a total of twelve now forms a chain Trom the E. P. Ranch to the town of Banff in Banff National Park. In 1937 Canada was the twentieth country to be admitted to the In- ternationa! Youth Hostels Association, and extensive organization work is now being carried on to extend the movement from the Maritimes to British Columbia. County and District News 'Mrs. !.. W.

(Mr. Brown’s sister, for the last visit for the present before she leaves for her home in. ©an Francisco, California, (Rev. )S. Liulewood occupied the pulllpit here on 'Sunday and spoke well of the peace settlement brought on by Chamberlain. The strongest guarantee today is that the German people upheld Chamberlain’s peace movement which the Rev. Littlewood:: made very clear to the congregation. We quite agree with the worthy scribe of the Weekly Times when he claims great- ©crédit for the W. M.S. and' the W.A. Groups. Too much can’t be said in their favour and when financial difficulties looms up as it, does sometimes, they step in, and settle the' affair at once, know- ing as they do that the church 'and school are the greatest assets a neighborhood hials got today. ! 1 r.
