hum two thi acton fuse mbs acton ontario thunbday june ml 1m may poocaruls with hsr for many wweki now the coronation of our qumn hat boon the chief nvvi of th day the chang of fan hai ban appreciated for many yoors now wan and rumors of war hot and cold wart truce talk that fizzled out and conference that ended in adjournment have been the head llnea of the daily paper the past few months have made more pleat ant reading the pictures and articles have been nker we have for a brief period had an inter lude from the harsh facts that made rather drab reading and a full scale showing of that whkh is beautiful and pleasant perhaps under ihe reign of elizabeth the second we may hope foi more thought on peace and those things which make life more beautiful and a turn from the strife that has seemingly been characteristic of the past few decades many will recall the reign of victoria as a peaceful reign queen elizabeth comes to the throne at a time when after two world wars there is surely a desire for peace on the part of all people all of us wish that her reign may be long and that during the years ahead peace will come to a troubled world and that wars and rumors of wars will disappear from our world news queens and kings we p our heading in he above order be cause it appears to even a casual observer that queens are not only more rare but are more popu lar we of course don t recall the coronation of queen victoria but we do know that over a hun dred years later there are still those who make cuite a fuss when her birthday is not observed on may 24th no similar controversy goes on over any of the three kings that followed her it is possible for even one of our age to recall the coronation dates of three kings the corona tion date of edward vii had to be changed owing to the illness of the king at the time specified the coronation of george v and george vi were aus picious occasions but we don t believe they matched in any way the observance that was made here in canada of the coronation of eliza beth the second for months newspapers magazines radio and all means of communication have written and pic tured most everything in connection with corona tions down through history like most every one else we have read and enjoyed it even the en thusiasm of crowning a queen has been contag ious in the publications of the united states as a result a better understanding of the crown and its significance may materialize we don t believe mere man could have put the glamour in the coronation that has been at tamed by elizabeth ii handsome and all as is prince philip her husband as elegant and splen did as his costumes may be we cannot believe that the crowning of a king could have been as greet a highlight in world affairs as hs been the coronation of our queen once again mere man must doff his hat to the ladies and we think there will be more enthus lasm and fervor as voices are raised in god save the queen long may she reign over us more workers needed a report on employment conditions in ontario makes this significant observation in one large city with a building program of considerable magnitude the only skilled mechan fcs available in the construction trades were in the upper age brackets there were only three bndt- layen available for employment all of whom were over 70 years of age and one being over 75 the only plasterer available was over 80 am painters except one were over 64 years of age the one exception had an arthritic condition n the htps and hands if any further proof were needed of a short age of people n this underdeveloped country we surely have it here comments the financial post it s not a question of wages the rates now being paid in the construction trades n canada are among the h ghest m the world the real trouble is lack of people we can get these people from europe but we won t get them unless we open our doors a lot wider than they are now and keep them open getting congested most folks can recall that when new highways were being surveyed through thli pari of ontario there was the urge by all of ut to have our town on the route tf we could have the highway pass tng fight down the main street it appeared to bo in i ho ixit interests to have it pass our business sections there was the argument and quite legitimate too that the business man secured a good share of the passing trado times have changed since motor cars have become plentiful most towns would be glad to got through traffic oft the main street and quite content to have through highways located a dn tance from town parking problems for the ho are really buyers in the home town are quite a headache in the business section there s no room for through traffic and heavy travel hinders local buying rather than encouraging it parking meters were tried in such centres as barne where the summer travel was heavy met ers apparently did not go as far towards a solu tion as have the roads which by pass the centre of the town and leave the business section free for fhe conduct of business the day is not far re moved when traffic through acton will need to be diverted from our business section and a new route chosen that will not make congestion in the business section flags and decorations came out again or coronorion day perhaps they can b used more frequently and displayed more ojttn utotwng

tate institute when they issue the annual student edition this year s effort in every department is an excellent example of a high standard in weekly ournalism the youthful editors show real initiative in mirroring the news of the community and reporting the happenings with catching head ings and a flare for appealing descriptive details their editorials show originality in which they are brutally frank in expressing their individual views on a wide variety of timely subjects we were particularly attracted and amused by the follow ing editorial headed what editors ore for which

farther up the road ther were living quarters in the school building for mr daly and the children frequently ruined hi nap and stole the eggs from his chlct ens one of the early teachers taught for 50 cents per pupil per month and boarded himself most of thi public schools were wretched in appearance and as a consequence private schools were more often patronized public school pupils took their can
