Bowman- ville Town Couneil on what:to do about. Sunday night dancing at the pavilions at Bpwmanville's East and West Beaches came up again at. Mons, day night's council meeting. The discussion was precipitated by. Venton suggesting that council impose a nominal license fee on establishes, ments allowing dancing in order to give police some means. of control over them, It wag suggested that the prohibiting of ~daneing ; on Sunday might be included as.a condition of issuing the license. : , Coun. John;Reggn pointed out that in the case of Jocal paviligns, where no admission chazge is made, but dancing is carried on to the music of a juke 'box, it cannot be stopped under the provisions of; the Lord's -Day Act, However, he pointgd,outy thie Munici- pal Act provided that.public, halls, can be licensed by the municipality, and 4 stipulation could beprovided whereby the license could be revoked if.

MYSTERY: OF TIN FOIL, SHREDS EXPLAINED The mysterious tinfoil that has been seen in-various sections of the fomuunity Iately, seems to have been ccounted for in-a logical manner. * 'Mr. Ed. Sewedersky, the technician at the Morley Greaves Company, saya that, as radar is used to track the path of aircraft, the only effective method the plane can use to avoid being spot- ted is to drop strips of tipfoil which deflect - the radar signal ,and thus makes. it impossible for the radar o- perator to locate;or identify the afr- croft; ' Mr. Sewedersky states that since the foil is very ;light, it is. posaiblé 'that much of it has been carried on air currents from as far away as Ot awa and Trenton, where much ex- perimentation :: along . such lines is carried. on.

But I'm having alot of trouble with my Dad." Lf "How come?" I asked, though in my own mind I had already decided that the boy was né doubt being held back by an old-fashioned father. I had jumped to the wrong conclusion. . "It's like this," the boy sald. "Dad keeps wanting to modernize. He says everything has to be big these days. Wants to trade in our old machinery on something better--and he says the old barn won't do another year." "Well," I said, "that looks like a retty progressive . attitude to 'me, You have to keep up with the times, you know." : The boy nodded, regretfully. "I suppose 80," he said. "But I love the old place just as it is--I don't like to see things change so much." - I had to chuckle a bit at that. It seemed to.me. like a fresh new twist. In my day, it always seemed that Dad wag the fellow who wanted to go slow, and the young son was always pushing for the new and the different. Timeg are changing. 2 he In I'm not too sure that the change is for the best. I rather think the fa- ther, who is willing to risk, and go for- ward, 'hag, the right idea. Seems to me this present generation is a bit too. timid, The boy's desire to keep things as they are was amusing, and could: sympathize with-it, but it wor, ties me a bit. Are we making life so 'eagy and pleasant for our young men that: they cannat visualize improving it? If we are, I am afraid this will not be quite such a good country for' the forthcoming generation. By that time, even the old barn will not be a place of pleasant memories!

Clipped Comments MAKE CANADA A BEAUTIFUL PLACE B ' The reams of eloquent verse written by poets each spring can hardly be. attributed to inspiration from humans, The muddy fields which, overnight,' become emerald carpets are the ring handiwork of Nature.
