bells across the province will summon the children back to classes back to another yearofpreparstionfordaysoflaterlife just what progress is maeffrjust whnfc perience is gained is something that only the student can answer educational facilities are the same for all and any boy or girl can attain a good high school education at home if he or she has the desire to work for it as in the old poem it must be bravely sought with wishing and with fretting the boon cannot be boaght a new opportunity opens on tuesday a new chance to progress further along in a pur suit of study that will prepare the mind for many of the tasks that will have to be met along lifes journey how hard or how easy those tasks will be depend largely on how well one is prepared to meet them school days can be happy days but they cannot be carefree meters were instated in tho hope that conges tion would be relieved but this hopo has not been realized towns now considering the meter question would be wiso to hesitate before succumbing to the urgings of highpressure salesmen the installation will not lead to any lookedfor uto pia in solving the traffic problem from other angles such as tho effect these machines have upon the travelling public and rural shoppers there is little doubt that the glamour has worn oh against hie hopedfor advantages in the installation of meters the nuisance they are to motorists andtthe annoy ing effect they have upon thbse doing business at main street stores more than offsets any possible advantage they- bring to the town on saturday morning wehad occasion to visit in guelph where the meters are causing quite a controversy in the court here is our experience the first niclde disappeared but the handle stuck and wouldnt turn a helpful citizen slapped the box and kicked the post for us but no results he suggested we try a pen ny so by feeding another five centp a cent at a time we got an hours time clocked on the meter the next meter had some time on it but we wanted an hour without having to come back it took one penny and the hand didnt move so we left it and went back just before the hour and fed in another cent the third meter worked perfectly we dont know about the experience of others thats the first time weve used the guelph meters in six months and we can appreciate the complaints tha come odically ti pliceeourt cases there they certainly do norinake one feel welcome in any town they are viewed as mother tax rather tjinn an aid to better parking faciliites and cer tainly their mechanism is far from perfect 1o1 recollections ol aclon aoczdirolfslct back in 1808 inkltau from the sr pre of sept 1 ibm labor day monday we are not just sure in this year of the sig nificance of labor day which occurs next mon day or whether it has any significance other than the fact that it is another holiday in the year but it might be well if on this labor day of 1948 those who toil might take stock of their present day stntus the world is recovering from a second world war there have been many adjustments necessary to get fitted back into peacetime routine there have been dif ficulties of both management and labor relat ions we have seen bitterness in many disputes and in spite of union agreements a growing feeling of insecurity employers have been urged to assure this security of labor governments have made rules and provinces aimed to make the place of labor secure it is doubtful if any of these measures have met the demand the only security for those who labor with hand on head is the security he or she provides for himself the willingness and ability to do a better job irfbpersonntsilvmrs mudewricn wortrtspterrrn- ful the careful planning of earnings so that living isbelow earnings these are some of the things that make for security of the worker and his home just how far have we gone toward security in the past few years might be a thought for this labor day of l4a mavbe its too much to think about on a holiday hide demand says fewer cows are hawng their hides tanned because fewer canadians are beating n path to the shoe stores according to a financial post report but more and more cattle are coming

every highway sign and road marking and ev ery careful driving habit and precaution ontar io motorists possess should be rigidly observed and brought into play this coming weekend decares the hon george h doucett minister of highways in an urgent warning of the traf fic tragedies that always follow the heavy traf fic flow on the labor day weekend fifteen fatal accidents over labor day weekend meant one death almost every five hours and failed to lessen the toll last year when 17 were killed the minister points out with this summers record peaks still prevailing grave anxiety naturally is felt foi the traffic outlook for labor day of 1948 coming at the end of the summers heavy traffic volume and of the holiday season rush labor day is the signal for a flood of ameri can tourists and ontario families to start to ward home for thousands of canadian nat ional exhibition visitors to take to the roads and for more than halfamillion ontario child ren to have one last carefree fing
