butlnti thar wat another not wa coutdn t over look often our visit were on saturday after noon end tometime on sunday theve ara days when factory worken and towmfolk are not working on the farm there were time when the farmer were working on home and porerty improvement they ere doing the odd oi in long hour we found no forty or ofty eight hoor work week on the farm the improve menu ere the reult of farmer own effort the folk we met were uung the r i ure for im provement of thetr living condition th question kapt coming in out mmd what are town folk doing with thair le lft not many of them are doing their own home improve menu not many mr doing carpentry pa ntiftg papering and uch thing in their short work week yes the farmers of ontario are prosperous but it not accomplished by a shorter work week there a price of ncconiplnhment and contentment on the farm that not noticeable in the shorter week m town it quite rv dent that what one doe with leisure hours ha a liearmg on the living cond tion the ansvcr im t m mass production horter working hours lind more money and more takes it may well be found m what i done in the more leisure hour point of no return i m a nice customer you all know me i m the one who never complain no matter what kind of service i get i ii go in a restaurant and i ii sif wh le the wetrest gossip with her frends and never both ert to serve me but i don t say a word i ust wait if the soup is cold or the cream jour i try to be nice about it it the same when i go to a more i don t throw my weight around i try to be thoughtful about the other person if i get a salesgirl who becomes uppity because i want to look at sev eral things i m polite as i can be i don i believe that rudeness i the answer you see i wasn t raised that way i seldom take anything back to a store be cause i find people so disagreeable about such things but one day i did take back a pair of ny ions i d bought three pairs in a box and one pair had a run in them the girl crossly told me it was my fault i guess it was for 1 hadn t examined them before i bought them but i didn t make a fuss about it i ust decided to take the lots my self a short time later i bought a toaster that burned out after i d had it only two weeks i cer tainly hated to take that back but i thought may be they would know where to send it and i could pay for having it repaired i didn t get the chance to tell them this they were so busy telling me i had burned it out on purpose i couldn t think of anything to do but leave so i quietly walked out i never kick i never hag i never criticie end i wouldn t dream of making a scene no i m the nice customer but i ii tell you what else i am i m the cus tomer who never comes back that s alt i do i ust never come back but unfortunately a dis satisfied customer like myself multiplied by others like me can ust about rum a business i often wonder why they spend so much money on expensive advertising trying to get us back when they could have kept us in the first place by a few words and a smile kiwams magazine on everyones program tomorrow the c n e opens its exhibits for the 1950 event and starts off the season of fairs in ontario we who live in this district visit it ev- ry year end are privileged to see the latest and best in most every field of ontario agriculture and manufacturing its proximity may not give it the prominence which is due for well over fifty years we have been a regular visitor n6t only once during its two weeks but several times each year it has never felled to amply repay the time spent there but how it has grown visitors from afar marvel at its magnitude and well they might for it is the world s greatest annual fair and finest education al show for young and old we hope to be pre- tent for the opemng tomorrow and again on the following friday we know it s on the agenda for locking the car a duty during the course of any year many cars are stolen a goodly number of such vehicle are in volved in

to much the greater the owner of the car it of course indignant tie i put to contuierable inconvenience and ex pente ma feel very badly about the whole mat tar that a only to be expected foretght i better than htndtighl tte lino to lock the stable before the hone tiolen so the old adage goe the same may l said aihiui tart itio many people leave the r car unattended and unltxkad ihey extend a lac t invitation to die potential thief then they complain when that invitation it accepted locks are placed on car door for a purpose they are not par icularly tiling of ixieuly en hantrd the apjwarance of the vehit in heme motorist should use them when irfivmrj their ehic let unattended they should kxk them particularly during hour of darkness when the th cf is not so t kt ly to i apprehend ed to leave a veh c le unattended and unlocked in c lunislances m wh ch it can be easily stolen is to invite such act on and there are plenty of car thieves waiting to rece ve and accept such an invitation many motor sis also find it advisable to im mobilize the motor in their cars when leaving them parked m more or less isolated places or at times when there are not likely to be many per sons who would see someone taking thern this can be done very simply any garage mechanic will be glad lo explain how welland port col borne tr bune c more trees one of the unhappy trad lions of north amer can cities ts that trees have no ptvri on ommeraal streets thai statement comes from the edmonton journal which would like to see trees planted on downtown jasper avenue ust as a lot of toronton am would t kc to sot trees back on the r un vers ty avenue one doesn t have to visit either of these thor oughfares to confirm the edmonton paper s opm ion with a few notable exceptions councils in this country seem to have the same feeling for trees as that of their pioneer forefathers at the drop ot a hat they will turn loose a bunch of power saws and down come elms maples and oaks that have taken from 50 to 75 years to grow in street widening or the laying or repair mg of water mams and sewers or even to make way for a string of unsightly poles the trees are sacrificed seemingly without compunction there seems to be a mistaken belief that busi ness and trees cannot get on together even in our tiniest hamlets those who hold that opinion should visit some of the biggest and messt beaut i ful cities in europe and south america or at least get some picture postcards of these places there they will find plenty of broad business streets lined with trees the grand boulevard of paris for instance has a double row for miles and as for retail business it flourishes with the trees as helpers for shade and shelter chopping out trees was the characteristic enthusiasm of our frontier colonial ancestors but is there no hope of local politicians aspiring to civilized urban amenities burlington gazette editorial notes a note of appreciation is due the department of highways in bringing uptodate the pop

thetr tenth wedding anni versary gave to his wife a solemn pledge to do t hediihes twice e week for the next twelve months while she sat down to read the paper a rail strike can be a great inconvenience to a lot of people but as long as the necessities are maintained things will still run it does seem too bad that people within ajrountry can not agree on their problems when we expect
