sixty five years ago that the lute jos h hacking founded acton s first and only news paper nnd nnmed it thc fnrc perss turning back to that first file of thf frll press we read the first column headed salutatory and as thc paper was christened thl fru prlss thc editor made thc comment may she never belie her nami as she glides from the stocks her form looks fair and well proportioned the coast seems clean and the sun shines bright o erhead though rocks and snags may loom in the distance those sixty hvl years hove witnessed many changes thc coast has not always been clear and thc sun did not always shine brightly just at the present rocks and snags loom in the distance not lor this journal in particular but for al of us but just as jos h hocking hoped when thl full prlss wa launched that she would never belie her name so do we hope and endeavor that it will keep true to its course five editors have had a hand in its dcstin four of them have passed on to the great beyond on entering its sixty sixth ylar it is our privilege to guide tin fril pri ss but onl to guide is the privilege of the editor whotevcr success ma be achieved lies in the- hands of many it is to all of thesl that we want at this time to pause in the rtcord long enough to sa thank you vr more effort another example of the worthwhile uork of the y m c a in the comimintins evlderrccdttns week- when o group of acton boys left for their two weeks camp near midland another evidence will be an other group of girls who will camp for a ueek at edgewood park the outing under capable supervision is a pnvil cge indeed and the as a community centre makes the formation of such groups possible but there is another fcoture thot most folks moy not know about that appetite strongly to us that camp outing was hnnnced almost entirely by the groups 1 nvt winter tht boys started depositing odd smn world affairs may not be bright nothing could be worse than tojoeirse entirely all these gatherings and become mooayiovcr a- situation that allows plenty of opportunity for gloomy brooding and so we say thot lome school re union was an important function nnd provided a multitude of pleasant occasions for those who gathered there on monday to the committee which carried it to such o successful conclusion we extend hearty congratula tions war time conditions a situation that affects this community vitally is the ruling by thc british government that farther imports of leather from canada arc prohibited it is understood that this ruling has been made because canada is outside the storling bloc and the united kingdom is more strictly enforcing her policy of conserving her gold the necessary imports which hitherto came from canada will in future be brought to the united kingdom from thqsc parts of thc em pire which are- in thc sterling bloc such as australia new zealand south africa and india following a meeting of canadian tanners horn various parts of thc country in toronto last week the following statement was released few industries have stabltshcd so large a propor tion of exports in relation to their total production as the leather industry in cnnnda consequently thc loss of the united kingdom market in addition to previous restrictions which affect pxports of can ndmn leather to more than one half tliti worlds other markets leaves thc leather industry of canada at thc present time in a very unhappy position the meeting considered the possibility of submitting suggestions for relief from these united kingdom import restrictions thc meeting also reviewed thc situation related to thc production of heavy leather in canada suitable for military requirements so as to place its maximum production at the disposal of the canadian govern ment as required it rs to be hoped that the situation is only a tern porory one and thot some solution may be found but in these times industry ond individuals are forced to meet many unusual and trying circumstances editorial
