if ontarios annual highway slaughter js to be stamped out it is a gruesome picture and one that happens every day on our streets and highways this ac cident happened because the driver was careless he died his face a grotesque caricature with his skull split like a coconut his chest a gaping hole where he had been stabbed by the ragged steering- column- his wife was less fortunateshe lived but every time she looks- into a mirror she wishes she had died too modern plastic surgery can perform miracles but it has its limitations when she looks at herself in the mirror with the eye that isnt glass she still shudders even though the accident happen cd three long years ago their flvcycarold daughter lived too but she doesnt realize it her skull was fractured and her brain injured its much moro difficult to rebuild a urain ffian a face j dont say it cant happen to you because it can and youknow it i todays headlines of dead dying and injured people may be telling a story nbout you in

the crop has been bountiful show it to the visitors take ptide in what you produce and markets are always available for quality remember serving two purposes after years of promise active work has at last commenced on the second line in preparation for making it a provincial highway besides the utility of this new highway we predict that when completed it willbc a very popular road for motorists who like a scenic drive through the country on an afternoon in summer or early autumn and a trjp along the highways these days on a weekend would seem to indicate that a great many people go out just for a drive just at present how ever we would not advise anyone to take the route the scenery is there already but roads in process of construction do not have a particularly smooth sur face lt is to be hoped the scenery will be preserved so that this may prove a dual purpose highway and mpre important and carefully yourself sunday well tiw 3d weak of aehool was laat monday km for tht 1st tlm i

also president of the pall fair it would seem permissable to use hie editorial columns to give the fair a personal boost not that this institution needs it because it has prpven veryjeapably and well man- agodby many who have preceeded the present in cumbent of the office its twentyfour years since acton first decided to hold an independent fair and the years have proven the wisdom of that decision untiring effort of many citizens down thjough those twentyfour years have won for if a place that it will long retain each year it has truly grown bigger and better this hasnot been achieved by individual effort of any one group or year the cooperative spirit of helpfulness dont wait foe of all citizens and the district for miles around has been the feature that has made for success added to this is the interest of former actonlans who come back each year to visit in the home town and meet friendsrof other years it takes united effort to make success and acton fair has been accorded this in marked degree as president of the fair this year and editor of the home town paper well all be pleas ed to renew friendships in acton on tuesday and wednesday next after being an eye witness

our lead ing historians who have investigated the records makes it an iroquois word still surviving among them in the form kanata meaning a collection of dwellings or settlement carlier in one of his vocadulanes of tne iroqttois speech saysol it they call a town ville canada its evolution into our placename canada can be fully followed in the nar ratives of carlier wherein it appears first in his account of his second voyage in hib the two iroquois indians whom he had seized at caspc and taken o france the preceding year informed him on entering the great kiver now the st lawrence that their home was fa canada which proved later to bo an alternative name for the village of stadacona on the site of modern quebec city cartier himself seems to have extended the word to the surrounding region as a convenient territorial name much as the name quebec has been extended from the city to the province accordingly this interpretation of canada is well attested by unimpeachable documents but the same is not true of several other current explanations which arc nothing other than guesses based on chance resemblances between canada and certain other indian or imaginary roots eg from scgnada canada meaning men seeking land tor a country a montagnais root meaning foreign mouth of the country descriptive of the st law ranee a spanish aca nada meaning nothing hcrcie in gold a spanish cano a

countryside i acton has just cause for thankfulnett in having thus far escapcdthe infantile parlysis epidemic f treme caution must however be continued a smaller attendance and corresponding losses in revenue have not dampened the ardor of c n f directors the 1037 exhibition was a great event in every other respect and the lower attendance was no fault of those in charge or the worthiness otjhe pre sentation the barrjc examiner points out that hon rowe has criticized the government for the earl number of authorities granted and bettercontrol of liquor but so far his attitude with respect to beer j parlors has been very evasive the toronto tele- l tfam which has opposed beverage rooms from the home improvement that will make winter much first says that those whomhink they will get any more enjoyable should be done now the honu- more advanced temperance legislation from hon improvement planmakes it possible for many of earl rowe- than they got from hon mitchell hep burn are leaning oipon a broken reed these to be undertaken- two views on the liquor question the profitsays mr hepburn the people says mr rowe for three years the liquor problem has been out of control in ontario mr hepburn worried by the rising tide of public indignation now tacitly admits the fact in acknowledgment of the situation he makes another typical lastminute preelection promise but ontario voters are not going to be fooled again hajvaniiea himt hfiphnm profit has been mr hepburns liquor policy ever sinte he took office here ore his own words as quoted in the border cities star windsor october 26 1934- another thing that the province requires is revenue i am informed that since mr odette took officehe has turned over to the treasury 2800000 let these people point out some other source of revenue do they want higher gasoline or cor poration tax do they want a provincial income tpx it is obvious that if we lose the revenue from the liquor control board we will have to get it elsewhere pajjopl mdrowt contrnst this liquor for profit policy with mr rowes cleoncut stand in theinterest of the people mr rowe has pledged himself i will return to a policy of control by a responsible board free from political patronage a survey will be made by the new board of all licensed hotels i promise you that these mushroom dives which have sprung up and flourished under hepburn will be closed and stay closed the conservative party takes the position that public revenue should not de gai ul th cspum of decency no more maahroom dives when mr rowe is elected beverage rooms will be confined to standard hotels which respect the law and give adequate service to the public restaurants taxi offices rooming houses and hot dpu stands will not by means of a few jerry built changes in construction be able to qualify as standard hotels beverage rooms will not be forced on communities where they are not wanted nor will such places flour ish in the shadow of the churhes of the province y ivonobblilieal control under conservative administration by means of a responsible nonpolitical control body beverage rooms will be so regulated that they will cease to be a blot on the social and
