o- tuwwtwo the acton free press acton ontario thursday july 7th 108 crack of dawn if our editorial comment this week smacks a bit ot northern ontario it is perhaps best to ex plain at the outset that since last issue the editor has visited in ontario northland last week in conversation with some friends one off them told of the glories of the early morningand of the beauty of the sunrise to get an earlv start on our trip and avoid heavy traffic we decided to ex penence thispresunnse grandeur guess we picked the wrong morning it was cloudy and hazy and while it was yet dark when we got up we decided anybody else who wants it can have the crack of dawn as far as we are concerned until we slip back off daylight saving time and necessity forces us to get up while it is yet dark in the morning true there isn t any traffic on the highways but there isnt much ot lyjhingelseexcepi the morning air which 11 much fresher than under the heat of a summer sun trie only work we observed on the fauns was the cattte who were in production without human aid thats one place the farmed scores his productiois line of milk and beef starts of its own accord during the summer months without the boss even turning a button the first hour and a half we agreed with the philosophy of our friend about early morning giandegr then the sleep we had lost started to overtake us weve had our experience anybody else wants to can take a crack at dawn we wont be in the way of your start split levels weve been watching new building trends of rhe modern homes in southern ontario where the lands are very level or can be easily levelled weve seen the development of the split level homes we haven t been much impressed by this type of construction unless the lot oh which it is built is graded to conform with the contour of building and its use it is said there is nothing new under the sun getting up into the mining section of northern ontario the need of splitslevel construction can seem very feasible take cobalt for instance how anything else but split level building could be done there is quite ununderstandable matter of fact it appears to have been carried to the ex treme in this mining town of 2300 people even the streets aid highway are so split in levels that curves and grades are necessary to get through the town let alone get around in it cobalt is not a new town so the split level idea of building must have originated in the north and spread its influence into the building plans of southern on tario in the past half century we find a drive through cobalt intriguing we are not sure however if it would be apprec iated if it were daily routine cobalt is famous for its s berhapsit was also the originator of the plans for splitlevel dwellings the human element the dominion day holiday and long week end is over the bathing beaches and the high ways have taken a heavy toll sunday we came down from ktrkland lake as far as gravenhurst the heat and the traffic decided that for both car and driver that was sufficient sunday night we stopped at a motel along the highway and for an hour watched the motor traffic headed in both directions we saw beaches crowded with holidayers many of whom we pre sume didn t know how to swim considering the number of newcomers to the beaches and the nurnber of motor vehicles on the highways and the distances covered we wondered if the toll taken in the three days was out of proportion true much of it was unnecessary but if we are going to have greater and greater participation in these pleasures the ratio of lives lost may be on the increase instead of lower if the toll is to be kept in bounds more care would seem to be the only answer we travelled over 800 miles on ontario high- ways during the week we saw no careless driv ing we saw only two mishaps where ears had- gone off ihe highway and out of control on the soft shoulders no one was inured in either in stance but the only reason for the mishap would oem to have been a speed that was excessive for the curves which had been attempted there are times when speeds of less than so miles per hour ere required just becaljse the signs say so is the limit does not give a licence to travel ot that speed the modern motor car used right can be safe the human elerrient is the one that usually is at fault real or imaginary problems one sometimes wonders if all our wornesnd preparation and our concern over the attitude of people and government of other lands is half as important as the perils in our own country and of out own making just recently ihe ramilicalions of the drug tiaffn in vancouver have been coming to the open laxity in oui law enforcement has been charged there has been an investigation and other investigations will follow but will clean up eethorough recently a series of accidents followed a parly af a golf club north of toronto where ap parently the entire attraction was not golf one man was killed and several more were charged with impaired driving it will be interesting to learn of the disposition of the mess when the court and some clever lawyers gel it sorted out every day of the week our accident toll of the highways mounts and one of th b causes is not the motor car or bad highways but driving photo bv esther taylor beat thf hcat il you can any way you cm was the idea first and foremost in ihe minds of

own people and pay les alien lion to the supposed dangers which face us from russia or china or elsewhere are we paying too much attention to probabilities and too little heed to our home problems fifty years apart the other day we drove along the street and some children were playing in a small pile of sand they were patting and rolling up little balls of mud reminding us of our own childhood days we asked if they were making mud pies we were greeted with a disgusted and em j lh amlrl phatic no from one of the little girls they re meat balls the menus change in a half century even to the
