for the yer will come as welcome news to all ratepayers and council has done well to arrive at thia improved state it required several hours of calculating to reach the decision as most citizens are aware debenture payments this year are nearly 4000 less than last year and an even lower rate was hoped for relief and hospital bills have however been the highest in the municipalitys history a note on a loan for the cemetery board required payment this year and other items seemed to mount up until it appeared that even a one mill reduction would not be possible the mill saving is welcome and the prospects tor a decreasing rather than an increasing rate for the future are indeed encouraging the friendly station it has indeed been a matter of satisfaction to hear the many kindly comments on the performance of acton school pupils on the radio to all of the performers it was an entirely new experience and yet we learn that to listeners there appeared no in dication of nervousness some had heard the school children several times but after all the practice that had been necessary to secure good standing ut the festival it was a privilege indeed for many to hear what is being accomplished in school work in even the smaller communities station cfkb has indeed a friendly attitude to many of the smaller centres and this is the second broadcast which acton has been privileged to put over this station it is a broad policy that makes many warm friends for the station throughout the countryside we wonder sometimes if there isnt more of a truly canadian side to its work than there is n others which are supposed to represent canada and which its citizens largely maintain we have always found its officials most cordial and friendly especially mr locksley the musical director and mr boddington with whom perhaps we have had closer association and the radio audience of saturday night whom we have heard comment mentioned frequently that informal few minutes at the close when mr boddington allowed trie children to say hello over the radio the per formers were at ease at all times and we gather that in the minds of many cfrb is regarded as the friendly radio station and mr boddington the per- oniscation of that friendly spirit which makes folks quite at home even when performing before the urge radio audience that this station reaches equivocally to it own bailiwick where it ought to remain until it day of extinction canadian as whole are trying to- be ateady and not aoee a lot of these newfangled doctrines but often patience i sorely tried by the petty wrangling

editorial the other morning the globe and mail made the following comment on the saskatchewan election saskatchewans election results cannot be con sidered a tribute to federal government policies or even those of the provincial government they are a tribute to the canadianism of electors who stood sturdily between the rest of the country and the crackpot theories threatening national disunity the
