pack two the acton free press acton ontario tiiuiuihay may bth 109 mothers day this sunday jvotwbly two of the most significant dayihn the yer other than christmas and easter are mothers day and fathers day this sunday is mothers day a day of respect and gratitude ex pressing all the warm and happy feelings hat are due the countrys mothers w d howells summed up a very sound ob servation when he said a rnan never sees all hat his mother has boon to him till its too late to let her know that he sees it if anyone has played an important part in the advancement of the world it is the least heard of group the mothers who have influenced and in structed the greatest men and the groatost women of theiworld mothers ro seldom heard from as a group yet their place in the way of life to which we are accustomed is beyond all doubt the most important john quincy adams lincoln and napolepn all groat men uttered words which in effect saidy all that i am my mother made me but it fs not just the great men who owe so much to their mother it is the little men the ordinary people who through spiritual and character develop ment gained from their mothers have been able to take and hold their place in the pattern of everyday living sunday is mothers day mothers dont ex pect the biggest and the best of something in- deed most of them expect nothing at all a little extra consideration a little more help aa extra smile just a simple expression of appreciation for what moiher has done for you will satisfy her this sunday on her day no language can express the power and beauty and heroism and majesty of a mothers lev it shrinks not where man cowers and grows stronger where man faints and over the wastes cf worldv fortune sends the radiance of its quenchless fidelity like a star in heaven e h capin money the root the financial post argues that the sensible tng for canadians and americans to do is for vstors to either country to have their money canyed 1v1t0 the proper currency before they cross the border it argues that we do that when ve go to britain france or sweden that paper aiso contends that the simplest solution and the pioper one is for a polite but firm refusal to ac cept us currency that is not legal tender in canada any more than canadian currency is legal tender in the united states most of us canadians have learned from ex perience that canadian currency is not acceptable in business places across the border sometimes the refusal to accept it has not been polite and often it has cheered us when we met the service station man or the other business man who said sure why not we agree with the post that the better way is to make the exchange in currency before visiting any foreign country but some way or the other we have never looked on the united states as a foreign country perhaps that is because we lived there for several years andhave relatives arjd many friendsjn the united states we feel we just dont want to be too proper and when we are offered united states currency we are going to accept it like the fellows who told us sure why not when we were visiting across the border maybe its this free exchange and common visits that have kopt the two great nations living so peaceably side by side for so many years tn contrast to european countries it has been said money is the root of all evil and the exchange on united states and canadian currency is a small price to pay for frendly relationship we might add weve decided to only use american cui- rency when we visit across the border and not flaunt any canadian currency in another country which doesnt seem foreign load of municipal advancement and too often it is left on the shoulders of members of council an interesting recent statement deals with the decentralization policy of a large us manufac turer of electric products wheroby its plants have been located in 20 communities in seven states with an average of slightly more thawlooo em ployees per plant one obect of the sylvanle company is to have an operation that the local manager can handlo on a somewhat personal basis knowing by name most of tho omployoos of the plant with an operation of this size it has been possible in many instances if place tho companys plants in small eommunlfles according to tho troasurer tho company has found that this practico of locating in small com munities has certain advantages for ono thing there is less social discrimination in small places between peoplo of different incomo levels peo ple live closer together when people go to tho same church and their children go to the same school they get to know each other pretty well we feel that when our managers can know their employees and vice versa our industrial rolations will be on a bettor plane also in small communities our plants be come important factors in the local employment situation somotimes the most important factor not only do our employees depend on us for their livelihood but tho whole economy of tho community is wrapped up in our wellbeing we do not want tho responsibility of running any town in which we operate that belongs to the people who live there on the other hand we feel that our people who work there have to do their sharo in making the place a good one in which to live i the good old days may have seemed j better back in 1902 krow th o th yne vrhu t1 thuimhav
