JO'S JOURNAL BY JO ALDWINCKLE Women's Editor of The Times Writing, as I am, from the rumpled covers and lumpy pillows of a bed of sickness, this week's journal may be jangled and the florid prose faltering. It appears that my jolly white '"'corporals" have called up the reserves to defend my person against an invading horde. Negotiations have been going on for three weeks but' finally broke down last weekend. On Monday, after incantations and mystic rites, the witch doctor made his pronouncements, and here I am. I've made a pup-tent of the bed clothes and intend to stay in it until the battle is over. I've called for quire and quill to make my will (these anti-biotics are most depressing) but I can't think of any- thing I possess that anyone would covet. Instead of the usual satin pillow I think I'll have my favorite books neatly stacked. I could leave Fowler's Modern English Usage _ fo the newsroom staff but who wants a Latin grammar? Some More On Traveling * I have been obliged to forego some interesting events that I had hoped to be able to tell you about. There was 4 reception in Toronto in honor of Elaine Collett and Mary-Etta Macpherson on the occasion of the publication their cook-book. This promised to be quite a literary gathering with editors, editors-in-chief, and publishers among the guests. It's always good to make the acquaintance of publishers -- you never know when you might feel a book coming on. : Then there was an embossed, deckle-edged invitation m the German Trade Commission to attend a German fashion show and reception under the auspices of His Excellency the Ambassador jof the Federal Republic of Germany, Dr. Kurt Oppler. | I missed the opportunity of an interview with the Indian Princess Kahn-Tineta Horn at a private luncheon given for her by Mrs. G. D. Conant. I very much wanted to see the film presentation of La Boheme, recorded at La Scala Opera House in Milan and to congratulate Mr. A. C. Hartshorn for taking a ¢hance on culture, I certainly hope the opera buffs and music lovers showed their appreciation by attending one of the four performances. I've had to send regrets to Mr. and Mrs. John Kessler who invited me to their home for a social evening and filmed travelogue of Africa and I am deeply disappointed that I shall not be among the guests honoring Leslie Mc- Farlane of Whitby on the publication of his latest book, 'The Last of the Great Picnics'. a I enjoyed reading this clean-cut description of a by- gone Dominion Day and I wanted to congratulate the author for stressing the importance of safeguarding July ist as a national holiday. Mr. McFarlane gives the fol- lowing lines to Sr. John A. MacDonald, 'The First of July is your country's birthday; a birthday that belongs to us all and because it belongs to us all, as the years go by, I ask you. to remember, always, what it means. The day of Confederation, the day your country was born. Never let it be cheapened. Never let it be forgotten or {gnored and honor it always, for it is your country's Day." It may be fact; it may be fiction, but the sentiments are noble and should never be degraded or seduced by "triple-time for overtime'. We who believe in the unity of this nation must not. stand back while tycoons whittle Away at our national institutions nor remain mum when our children are disinherited. Downtown Renewal Although the days before the debacle are somewhat hazy in retrospect, some peaks are discernible. One is the civic dinner given by the Oshawa and District Real Estate Board. Handsomely presented, the hosts provided food for mind as srell as body by introducing the dynamic Mr. J. R. Bousfield MTPIC as the after-dinner speaker. Mr. Bousfield's subject was "Downtown Renewal" and he threw out the challenge that has been a dormant question in the minds of many who have lived in cities in other countries, "Why not make down-town a place to live?"'. If you have ever known a big bay window overlooking the High Street, then you know the hours of interest it affords, and when I reach the stage at which the house and the eats and the horticulture are altogether too much, I'm going to look for a big window at the heart of things, over a --* or a shoe store where I can watch the world go by. To me, Mr. Bousfield made plain sense and his colored slides of combined living and shopping centres in cities in Holland and Sweden must have sparked the imagination ofthe most sterile .zone-planners. Another peak is the opening night of the Crest The- atre. Despite the gloomy predictions of last spring, the theatre has re-opened; the board of governors, life mem- bers and subscribers, dressing the house, and giving the social elan to a first night. The sophisticated audience was highly amused by the two plays, "The Private Far' and "The Public Eye', and less discriminating audiences would be equally amused from another point of view. The "Private Ear' is funny because it is exquisitely pathetic and the interplay between Frances Hyland, Heath Lam- berts and Ken James is superb. In the second play the versatile Mr. Lamberts changes from a pallid wooer into a zany private eye. He meets his match in the nimble Miss Hyland whose suspicious husband, played by Norman Welsh, is the anchor we needed. A delightful evening, and I'm sure the director, Kevin Palmer, realized it was too long and by now has done some necessary tightening and cutting. Some Topics Missed Many readers have expressed their enjoyment in the accounts of my recent travels abroad, but one gentleman has taken me to task for my remarks about Paris. I can report: only what I experienced, kind sir. Perhaps in the provinces the French people are as friendly and consider- ate as they all were formerly, but the change in the attitude of Parisians, compared with pre-war is very noticeable. I am referring to those who are supposed to give service-- salesgirls, taxi drivers, and minor officials, among whom I encountered real rudeness. I resented being over- charged. I resented paying one franc every time I used the elevator to the hotel atop the air-port, the only way of getting there, and I resented the air-port tax of 25 -francs (over five dollars), demanded of me on my departure for Canada, especially as I had spent my last four francs on a small cup of coffee and two rolls. I agree heartily that Paris is perhaps the most beautiful city. Individually the Parisians are educated, stimulating. That they are heavily taxed there is no doubt, but I think it preposterous that the guileless tourist should be hood- winked into paying their national debt. Chacun a son gout.

Halton County Denies Nurses Bargaining Rights TORONTO (CP) -- L. B. Sharpe, employment relations director for the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario, says he has received no reply to a request that the Halton County board of health give 21 public health nurses in the county bargaining rights. Mr. Sharpe said Tuesday he wrote a letter to the board Sept. 17 asking it to give the nurses bargaining rights formally through "a letter of voluntary recognition." The request was made after earlier attempts to gain collective bargaining rights had failed. The Nurses*Association-- of the Halton County Health Unit applied for certification last July, naming the County of Hal- ton as the employer.
