the acton free press acton ontario thursday octonen mill 1011 changing elections ontario is going to have an election and for those who have seen many elections both in the province and dominion there cannot help but iftkntwthrwmtoch- in contrast with a few come ret the election of today year back- before the day of the radio and the filling of the air with oratory from every corner of the world the local candidates could count on a good attendance at meetings to discuss the issues of the day today the public meetings in connec tion with elections seem on the way out we have to many issues under discussion so many promises of easier living at lower costs that there seems little left for the hustings in the election no leader of any party has time to appear in every community but he can make a recording and have his address sent out on the air he however never has the satisfaction of meeting the electors or of knowing how many listened to his massage moro and more it appears that the closest contact is through the local member and his timeto moot and minglo with the olctors there is no ear to the ground provided by radio thore was a dayrtoowhonthe party workers had the ejoctoraje pretty well tabulated before election time that appears othing of the past and in those days of lavish promises of govern mont caro thore is often a tendoncy of every man for hlmselfeven if he doosnt really believo ful filmont is possiblo yos elections are changing the campaigns are shortening and the promising becoming more inclusive thore ust doosnt seem to bo the leisure for them there was a few years back and we are not prepared to agroe that the trend is in the right direction indian summer every period of warm fall days brings the query is this indian summer and the hope that it isn t and another longer period of nice fall weathor is yel in store we still have thoughts similar to those of the indians and a desire to delay the approach of winter advent of indian summer or as it is some times called st martin s summer is unheralded in canada the weather may change during oc tober and november in place of autumnal cold the genial influence of warm la summery days is felt for a time the air is usually dry and in the woodland away from the hurry and bustle of the city there is a pervading stillness the only sound the rustl ing of fallen leaves stirred by some vagrant breeze the plaintive note of some migrant bird the vibrating bark of an inquisitive squirrel origin of the term indian summer is uncer tain there are a number of interesting explana tions as to how these days of delicious mildness precedinq the boisterous winter season come to be so designated the one we lite best to accept is that of the old indian legend that a beneficient providence qave the indians warning that they should qet supplies in for the winter by sending a pool spell in the early fall then in older that they might garner their crops and lay awa provisions against the coming of the long season of winter when the earth blanketed in snoxx gave not of her bounty there followed weeks of glorious weather bright sunshiny days born of mist mornings with a tang in tht air but we are more mteremed in the delightful diys that accompany this bctwten seasons visita tion than wo are in the origin of the mine it is a phase of a viable clirnatt that we f nd very ac ceptable and one v inch is too often interrupted i y the sudden advent ofdrtar novtmber days that portend tilt rapid approach or a st ison of snow and storm tile only tiling the matter with hid an sum nier is that it dots not last nearly long enough if inflation is here to slay vx fiat about in creasing tile sie of our fines asks the windsor star if the fine for assault today is 50 will it be a sufficient deterrent 20 inflated years from nov tq curb the blpodlust of even ihe poorest among us the romans apparently ran into tfys very thing to such an extent that they abol shed fixed fines and set up boards of arb ttrs to ap praise damages at current rates llxs estimated the airplane starch m on tario s northland for the missing hockey player bill banlko has cost close to 250 000 involv ing the use of three lancasters four dakotas one norseman and one helicopter this is only one case of hours of search and the cost in locating those who venture into the vastness of ontario s northland the maple leaf gardens reward of 10000 doesnt seem unduly high those who dare weve been reading the past week houghs once more the thunderer and getting a thrill from a country editor who put into interesting community we also like the reasoning andon elusions that the editor makes in dealing with the many problems that confront every weekly newspaper most every community provides the material for such a book as hough writes or of which ste phen leacock wrote in his sunshine sketches of little places but there are few who can tell the story as these two put it into print most of us would like to give such stories but few seem to have the time and the ability to tell of the human interest and interpret the philosophy and the people of the smallor communities as can hough and loacock leacock of course writos of a day that old timers romember while this latost book on com niunity life has its background in moro recent yoars weve wondered as wo read once more the thunderer how folks in the community in which hough lives are receiving the book most every editor soon finds out that often the most interesting stones are not alwaysjho best roc ed especially by those who are the subccts but igp i given to us by those who dare t6 write and muse and draw conclusions and present such books about the places they know so well and have been so close to their lives of personal interest ih the world of newspapers the big city daily wields a poworful influence in the direc tion of national affairs it gathers news of world importance from the four corners of the earth and it details ihe important happenings within our own borders we can pick up our copy from the doorstep each morning and absorb all this while we drink our breakfast cup of coffee but news that is of sufficient importance to make the headlines of the metropolitan papers is usually depressing war and threats of war nrave political crisis and a pessimistic outlook for the national economy tram wrecks and plane crashes bank robberies hold ups 5nd murdtr with a running recital of fatal fires and highway accidents these make up the bill of fare dished up to us by the daily press most of these occurrences do not touch us personally but they have a bad effect on our morale after all it is the small and seemingly unimportant things that make up our daily lives and command our great est interest says the bowmanville statesman that our neighbour bill jones threshed his oats last week and got a yield of 34 bushels to the acre interests us more than the fact that the pound sterling has advanced two points on the world money markets that the women s insti tute held a successful quilting bee is perhaps not so important as a session of theu n coun cil but we can understand its signifcance more clearly it is in the reports of the small neighborhood happenings that the weekly newspaper fills a more intimate place in the lives ot the average reader than does the impersonal city daily and the backbone of the weekly paper is the country correspondent week in and week out these loyal contrtbu tors send in their budget of news the average country weekly cannot afford to pay them for their services but the men and women who re port the neighborhood happenings and the com mq and qomg of their citizens do it because thc arc public sp rited and take a lively interest in the affi rs of their communities and feel a ense of pride in keeping the public informed of their ach evements we have often commented the service the render is equal in many cases to that of tht mm ster or school teacher the weekly newspapers and the communt- t es they seie owe a debt of gratitude to their lo il corps of country correspondents and agatn ve are glad to pay a tribute to their worth most any time now the christmas shopping i sts will become active and of course the early chr stmas suggestion lists get the early shoppers inject ons of pure alcohol into the scalp is a ntv way said to prevent baldness we ve seen plenty of bald headed men who were always well injected with alcohol it looks as if setting of uniform prices is now being frowned on by governments if its not right for one line of business it ought to be frowned upon in all lines and perhaps govern mentjrice fixing is our most serious form a lit tle example would be helpful n reducing living costs anddp away wtfh
