editors corner f we did it again the results of the 7 th victory loan in george town and esquesing have proven once again that this district is not only one of the most prosperous in on tario but that its citizens are ready and willing to lend their money as one contribution to the cause of justice and right over half a million dollars worth of bonds were bought in this small corner of the dominion every industrial concern soared way over the quota set and the district as a whole was almost 50 per cent above the quota set from district headquarters in oak- ville it was a job well done but we must not rest on our laurels there is still a war to be won and half a million dollars which we will some day get back with interest is but a minor share of the part we at home can play in this great struggle soon the red cross will be calling for more blood donors the navy league will be packing ditty bags for the sailors the soldiers com forts committee will be sending more cigarettes to the men overseas there will be another victory loan though we pray that the world will be at peace before that time comes and we can be saving our dollars to put georgetown over the top again there are the simple everyday things which we can do for the men in the forces letterwriting and par eels which show them that we are thinking of them and greater perhaps than all this we can be thinking and planning for the future so that no soldier- from georgetown and esquesing can say that he didncome back to a better town and a better township rehabili tation town planning a sewage system improvements at the high school fac ory conditions recreational facilities for the young folks these are only some of the things that should be in our minds today s x some changes are needed the quality of the editorials written by g h s students as par of the education week program is most certainly a tribute to their english teacher we have had many favourable comments from readers and we are already looking forward to next years educ ation week and the pleasure of reading editorials composed by the young people of he community perhaps the townspeople through their repre sentatives on the high school board will now see fit to take action on what has been far too long a limiting factor in the local educational picture it has been pointed out in several of the editorials that we are be hind the times at g h s the lack of proper athletic equipment and a gymnasium the need for an assembly hall and the handicap of a purely academic course which ignores manual training domestic science and business training have once more been pointed out by those most vitally concerned the students themselves if we fail to provide our young people with the training they need for a happy profitable life then we are falling down on the job georgetown is growing and prospering and education must keep pace with this growth and prosperity if we are to benefit from it we should like to see the high school board make a com prehensive study of the matter and begin making plans for a bigger and better g h s elections in the offing if you overhear someone talking about the ejection it can bring to mind several electoral con tests the one just over in the united states the probable dominion election and the town and town ship elections we think most canadians were glad to see roosevelt elected exactly why we cannot say un less that old axiom about changing horses in midstream has penetrated our subconscious mmd to unsuspected depths perhaps the fact that prime minister winston churchill and president roosevelt agree so well and obviously like each other has something to do with it jt would be too bad to break up a winning team like that when we are so nearly at the end of a long hard ace but several frank american publications have given us the impression that the democratic party has not racceeded too well on domestic issues of recent eara and as a result quite a strong dissenting vote was cast for the republican candidate dewey however these things do not loom so importantly to the outsider and cajssab in common with all the allies feel it a oo thhif that president roosevelt is to continue in ttficrfotr the unprecedented fourth term when peace k wifl he critical a time as was the war h ve that the men at the peace table be intim- canadians have made known in no uncertain terms their desire to know the truth of the matter if neces sary and have the proper steps taken whether it means offending one part of the country or not it isjikely that an election will be held in january when the can adian people will decide this important question true there are no great issues at stake but nevertheless straws in the wind indicate there will be a wellcontested municipal election here the first week in december georgetowns progressiveness is always evinced at election time by thte number of publicspirit ed men who come forward to offer their services on the town governing body a goodly number of candidates and a large poll are signs of a healthy interest in town affairs it has been so other years and so far this year there are no signs of diminishing interest rummage sales the ever popular rummage sales have proved a veritable gold mine to the church organizations and others which have sponsored them it is beside the point that the ladies in charge always wonder where all the used clothing comes from the fact remains that after apparently scraping the bottom of the bar rel after a big sale by the time another sale rolls around in six or eight months scads of clothing comes in again just as good or better than the last lot taljt about wartime conservation these rummage sales do mor towards that end than all the lectures wptb economists could eer give dorothy aha curry wife of the tweed news editor writes an interesting column every week and last week she told of an incident that would be amus ing if it weren t a bit 6n the tragic side it seems one of the good ladies of tweed who was on a rummage sale committee was more than a trifle late for the sale open ing this she claimed was due to the fact that her hus band came home exceptionally late for dinner she dashed into the sale ahead of the lineup threw her coat over a chair and pitched right into selling and wrapping up goods the sale was over and the clerksfor aday were donning their coats to go home while discussing the day s receipts the lady with the procrastinating husband looked for her coat it was neither on the chair nor on the coat hook in fact it just wasnt there someone had sold it a 60 00 coat worn only one sea son and gone goodness knows where it was a de jected looking female who returned to her home that evening and though it wasn t so much as inferred i have a suspicion that said hubby was blamed for the whole mishap an advert sements was placed in the local pa per and as all such advertisements do it got results to a degree at least a lady called to say she was sure the coat she had purchased was the missing one but she was so sorry about it she had cut it up the day before to make a coat for her small daughter the
