The Acton Free Press last week wondered if one local resi- dent hadn't come up with a reas- Lonable, if a mite noisy solution for skying footwear prices. Investi- zation revealed that an unaccus- tomed clomping on the main reet did not herald the return the horse, but was merely a passserby sporting a pair of sporty Dutch wooden brogans.

Out trapped in disclosed 3 COUNTY COMMENTARY tarving Beaver Rescued By Campbellville Students Burlington way, council members felt they had found at least a partial solution to the parking problem in the business sector when they designated a vacant lot as a parking area. Last week, however, councillors stopped feeling pleased with themselves when a petition from nearby res- idents arrived, protesting the move. Now the matter is being held in abeyance until the town solicitor determines whether such a parking lot is a violation of restrictions.

CUMBERLAND Phone 41 New Approach To Health, Mather Tells Continued vigilance is the key- note of the approach to public health problems today, Dr. James M. Mather, director of the Halton county health unit, recently stres- sed while addressing the annual meeting of the Halton Children's Aid Society. A very pleasant interlude pre- ceded the address of the evening, when a male quartette from the Mr. and 'Mrs. Club of the United Church, offered two selections, following which Mr. Wm. Van Sickle introduced the speaker. By exemplification, the speaker made mention of the variety of meanings embodied in the word, health, to the diverse nations of the world. In 1850, when man's life expectancy was 40 years, the Medical Officer of Health was concerned chiefly with problems Meeting of communicable disease in epi- demic proportion. His concern then, did not embrace problems of housing and mental health, but through continued efforts and increased medical knowledge, baby boys born today have a life expectancy of 63 years and their sisters, two years more. Epide- mics of the more serious com- municable diseases are almost unheard of infant deaths have been drastically reduced. "The practice of 'public health today depends on continued vig- ilance," Dr. Mather declared. "Environmental factors such as sanitation and housing are now a major item of concern, but con- sidered as important as these in today's larger meaning of the word, health, are the soclal as- SGT. A.

Health is being cared for in rural as well as urban communities by the Health Units but there is a sad lack of trained and organized groups in rural areas to deal with such soc- ial problems as that of old age. Dr. Mather pointed out that up to 1944, the same was true of health services and in the ensuing 6 years nearly 30 Health Units have been formed, making Dos- sible good preventive medical services in rural communities." TEEN TOWN By Don Lovegrove Spring fever has started to take its toll on yours truly this week, and I might say it is all to the good. Unlike my gay, debon- air friend, Pete Watters, my eyes do not turn green when the first warm day comes along and the robins put in their pre- mier appearance. Instead, my eyes soften, and perhaps even close( late nights you know). My mind starts to wander to the north, sorts. I yearn to tear myself away from the hustle and bustle of the Journal, get out my trusty fish- ing pole, and head for lakes and bays that dot Ontario's northern extremes. With the first long weekend coming up, I have got my reel all oiled up, line untangled from a last of the season bird nest, and all the sinkers, leaders, plugs, hooks and flies neatly tucked In their respective drawers in the tackle box. With a loud cheer I am off to Haliburton. Ah, won- derful spring! Teen Town? . . . Well, it too is suffering from a surge of spring fever, and last week per- haps a very noticeable attack of King Coleitus. The King and his trio drew great response from the teen-agers of Oakville as they staged a two night stand at the Brant Inn last week-end. "After seeing King Cole put on a show, every other performer is just ordinary," stated one of our Teen Town regulars. "It Is the first time I ever caught my- self actually swooning over a singer." ! 'That should just about sum things up in that respect. Frank- fe Laine is going to have a real task winning back his following after the King's appearance.
