paoa the acion free press acton ontario effective warning devices according to the journal of commerce a patent has been luued for a device that will cause highways to speak up when an automo bile approaches a clanger point undulated pan- elsatintheodturf wheels conveying the sound waves and the car body acts as a soundbox to make audibility so far only single words such as danger or cros sing at contemplated several years ago a warning signal was placed at a railway crossing on no 7 highway between norval and brampton when cars went over the signal it made a noise as if one was losincjmarvypairtspf the vehicle it was really quite startling and one was so confused that the crossing was liable to escape from ones mind and concentration made on reaching the nearest garage we recall going over the crossing one day and- noticing a motorist examining his load of camping material which was strapped on the top rear and sides of his car he seemed quite con vinced he had lost part of his load in the noise created the signal didnt stay in the road very long and its the only one we can recall being used m wendhem-irrrnorty-plftces- theyseem tohav its a big job inaugural council meetings are over and the 1952 municipal year has been launched with committees formed and routine business operat ing the elected officials who are serving their town or township for the ensuing year are sad died willingly with a big ob that quite often goes unappreciated and ignored the business of being a councillor is much more complex and demanding than many think and sometimes this public representative is open to severe criticism when he takes a definite stand on a controversial issue too it is a thank less ob in many ways a man if he looks after his municipal duties in proper and conscientious manner must of necessity devote considerable time to the municipality often his own business suffer on the other hand the municipal role has its bright side many pleasant and even warm as ociations are formed and there is the education acquired from studying and practising municipal law and administration all in all the councillor though at times he has occasion to regret entering the arena of local politics is happy in his ob and in the knowledge that he is rendering genuine and useful service to his neighbors and his community the odd car it s always interesting to note how anything unusual will attract attention any place some place we read about a new plastic preparation applied on the chrome of an automobile pre vented rust caused by the sand and salt placed on wtnter roads it sounded logical and it never crossed our mind that the preparation would be anything but clear we arranged to have the material put on our car imagine the surprise we received when the chrome was turned to a gold color our surprise vas no more than those who viewed the gold trimmed car on the road it appears our car is one of its kind in this district children slop in their play to point at it folks along the street take a second look we parked on a street in a nearby city and sat in the car and the comments wtre most interesting one woman it sure is bright another group of four solved the mystery by stating it was un doubtedly one of the 1952 models because we had a new 1952 sticker on another man after carefully appraising the decoration confided that he liked the color combination we have learned since that the plastic preparation comes in various colors and pink and lilut and neutral are available we ii be giad if some orhtr motorists like the colors and relieve the spotlight from our car its fine to try new th ngs and be early m color schemts but it has its d sidvantages in being singled out one of the advantages besides pre serving the chrome trim is the fact that there is no difficulty finding your car on any parking lot on being agreeable it is great to meet agreeable people we all like their company they light up a crowd and a room like an electric lamp jt is peculiar they are not in the majority but a knack of making everyone like them they are pleasant to talk to and always have a smile we want agreeable companions foremen like agreeable workmen it makes everything run so much smoother when you have agreeable people every man wants an agreeable wife wives like that kind of husbands children are pioud of agreeable parents and we all visit our agreeable relatives it is nice to meet agreeable hotel clerks policemen amtors bankers preachers conduc tors in fact we all like to meet agreeable per sons no matter what their occupation may bo how much do wo contribute to agreeable ness do we meet every person with a smile not a sickly ono that gives the impression of pain but one that is and looks natural agreeable people are in demand in every walk of life just take for instance your mer chant if he is not as agreeable as your neigh bour s you soon change him you even greet the tenth salesman at the door with a smile when he rings the door bell unusually hard and wakes the baby lust because he is an agreeable sor of chap he also succeeds selling you goods where the others failed being agreeable has its compensations thursday january 17th 1m2 city is strike friendly toronto struck us as being a changed place when we made a quick weekend trip to that city it s changed because the ttc operators went on strike and eliminated those oneeyed monsters from the centre of the street people were hitch hiking on most of the main corners and two groups we picked up didn t seem to appreciate the stand the operators were taking we thought they were probably the two most authoritative groups we could have chosen to6 one lad who occupied the front seat with us was quick to point out his father had been with the ttc for 4 years and had received sufficient pay all the time plus cloth ing plus transportation the second couple a man and wife who oined the discussion from the darkness of the back seat had formed opinions on the subject too he had worked for the ttc for eicjht years as an operator and just last year left the job not because of money as we understood it because he claimed drawing about 120 to 130 each week with overtime afterwe mulled 6ver the figure it sounded a little fantastic but it was too late to verify it for all three passengers left us at ossington ave daily newspapers have carried an abundance of letters expressing the opinions of citizens by the time this appears the whole issue may be settled but we hope it is by a great deal of com promise on the part of the operators for the simple reason we think their demands are more than a little too much th strike seems to have worked a miracle on the general attitude of torontonians they re friendly when they get m a car just out of cour tesy anyone who has ever faced an every morning and evening half hoyr ride on one of those ttc bone shakers will realize what a change this is we hope that when and if torontonians go back to riding street cars they will remember their lesson in friendliness they could easily take an addition to that lesson from the smaller j centres outside the big cities where friendly areetmgs are usually the key note of conversa tion and a lesson for smaller centres not to get too bid and be involved in such extensive trans portation problems postman knocks twice docs the
