clarke ten oclock came on sunday morning labt and a tribute to the late andy clarke but the voice that so many had come to enjoy recount ing the little things of life that happen in those places that lie outside the cities of ontario and i a i criticism too often however governments are like people who when they have money in their pockets have a tendency to spend it without any regard to debt obligations we hope the fed eral government will set an example for the people iri this respect especially when the levies arc so often called disciplinary actions another thing that the continued high taxa tion brings home is the fact tflflt if governments are ioingtojuppjy increase pensions health and ottver servicss t must come from the pocketbooks of the people weve had many years of rosy promises ofsccurity through government sources in the midst of a provin cial election we are getting the usual promises again it is well to remember that these pledges are only fulfilled hy your contribution in taxes hidden or direct and not always to the best ad vantage mr abbot in his budget has shown that no party ofgroup can provide more services and at the same time reduce taxation it would be well for all to remember that when approaching municipal provincial or dom inion governments for financiairtssistance the budet was disappointing and ve hope it was sobering it appears drastic measures are nec essary to bring home facts r canadas strength any day wctan pick up a newspaper or mag azine and read something about national unity especially when elections arc in the air or when anything arises which urges the attention of the whole country what we need is to bring it down to brass tacks w foa th if p nesday suiroahaed by his grist of weekly news papers and preparing his sunday broadcast we imagine that was the end he wouldtiave liked if given a choice just to quit in the harness there have been many articles written on hfs life and his work our amazement at him was in the fact that in spite of his years in daily newspaper work and searching for scream ing headlines that in the latter years of his life he was able to pick out the newsy little items that make up the grist of the weekly newspaper no horror or murder stories but the birds and the bees fishing yarns trees and hiwers and the things we in the smaller communities find great things of life we like to remember him ire we saw him at conventions with his pipe and surrounded by a group omnends recounting-stones-and-incid- ents how he enjoyed the old boys reunions and his title of mayor of little places we re call too how he confided at one convention the fear that gripped him every time he faced the microphone and yet he carried on searching and recounting the things of personal interest to such a vast majority and got joy in doing a task that he always found difficult miss andy clarke yes thousands of us will he blazed a new trail in broadcasting that we hope will be carried on by some successor who too will find the task a hard one mobseo recollections ot aclon houraloh back in 1898 folh from ukrt lamm of um ipveei of trutnuay may 56 mm they had been at fault there would be less qpud- slinging and more of the patriotism that ouivcfs a point of view or personal advantage but it is imperative that we also realize that it isnt ujst the job of theoliticans it is ours it is the privilege of every canadian to put into his politics a spirit free from prejudice and thought of personal gain to accomplish this we should use every opportunity to create the right spirit in national life without destruc tive and irresponsible criticism help our rep resentatives to put national interest ahead of political expediency and personal advantage without resort to patronage or other abuses practise ourselves in our homes and at our work those same principles which we expect our representatives to practise work for a lead ership of men who base their public policies and personal lives on honesty and faith in god lets look after summer sports uith artificial ice surface in all the arenas in this district georgetown milton guelph the need for such in acton is lessened we can give greater service just now by providing an adequ ate swimming pool for summer pleasure and be good neighbors in inviting these towns to use such summer facilities which they lack and when ice is soft on natural surfaces they can recipro cate in the winter sports its coming on the time of car too when a swimming pool will be a real asset we doubt if the protect can be completed this year but summer time is the time for such construction and this summer is the one to get the work un derway three meetings are being held this week and then the general meeting some time next week can complete the organization and actual work weve been criticized for setting a 25000 objective but it is our firm coiniction that not 1 cent less will do a decent job as a matter of fact we believe this amount uill not provide all the little ctnis that will be found necessarv weve been asked where the swimming pool will be located that in our opinion should be decided upon b the mujorm ot those who pur chase sharev and contribute the funds for the pools erection the important thine in our es timation is to secure the 25 000 fund and when that is assured the other details can be worked out that means 2500 shares at 10 each and it means that most evervone can be a share holder in this communitv proiect incidentalu bowmanville- is raising 50000 for a communitv project bowmanville- popu lation is 424 not quite double that of acton- and their objective ib double ours there are thousands ready to support men who put into action those moral and spiritual convictions which are essential for canadas strength by our own constant adherence to such we can be rallyingpoint for all citizens who want to do their bit our homes will be come an answering force for the community we our families and our friends can supply the teamwork that can pull the nation together not onlv at elccfion time but the year round editorial notes victoria day was a quiet holiday locally but as usual it gave a fine
