mux two the acton free press acton ontario illullsdav junk 2llth u2 not every year good to me that tho flawing job on our trrttott it compltd perhaps w thould ay to- paving but no matter what it it called the rod- way u again tmooth and from our recent travel we believe it would be quite reaionablo to tay we have the belt roadway in the province lait year when the paving job wai done that claim seemed only logical but somarhing happened to hat tmooth turface during the winter and when winter ectonuiljtion of tnow and ice went away part of the nice smooth road turface alio ditappearecl fortunately contractors had done the job who were prepvared to back up their guarantee of mtifacto- worlmanihip and there was little difficulty in arranging for a neu surface its not ever mvn that gets a new roadway each year and it i net liable to happen again here for some time ne could name many towns that require new road sltfaces on their main thoroughfares but we tnew too that tax rates must be carefully guarded in these das of many municipal needs ve sirtcerehope that the new surface just com pleted will prava satisfactory because in all probability it vmii be some years before we will see anomer new roadway so well have to do our best to make it last this time diversion and routine we clcmjbt the reliability of that old saying that the bett part of a visit is getting back home were ready to admit that its nice to be home again but several days away from the of- ice and the necessity of getting down to thinking of subjects of interest m the community has its handicaps t last week we toured for two days with hal- ton county farmers spent wednesday and part of thursdayat home and went to the annual con vention of the weekly newspapers of ontario and quebec at wigwassan lodge in muskoka its just e little difficult to get our thinking straightened cut besides that e havent been reading the daily papers very thoroughly and definitely our exchanges havent had any perusal we wouldnt want to bore our readers with more travel writing again this week but when one spends most of the pre ous week in travelling our dilemma can be appeoated yes its good to get back home ega bjit does take some adjusting to get back into tne routine agam one flag we ve often wondered why the flag of the united states is so prominently displayed in canada go to summer resorts convention halls and very often service clubsin canada and youll find the two flags side by side its perhaps done as a friendly gesture to our american cousins but unfortunately youll never see a canadian ensign or a union jack to welcome the canadian visitor south of the border we think its a cheap way of showing friend ship andarttr acting attention and we dont believe our american friends expect to see their flejg when they come to canada any more than we ex pect t6 see the red ensign flown m the united states canada is a nation and of course deserves a distinctive flag of its own until such time as the canadian government gets around to the task of adopting a distinctive flag the union jack or the red ensign with the jack in the corner will suffice and lets make it the only flag flown m canada ls small wonder the american senators get mis taken ideas about canada when we go i to such measures as to place their flag in equal promi nence with our own there are many ways of showing a welcome to our american visitors without using flags to wave before them the joy of youth schools are finished this week and the child ren are excited over the summer vacation in these days of hurried travel and the advantage many families have m going to summer places where the bathing facilities are not familiar there are many dangers lurking which can mar the summer for the whole family unfortunately it usually takes some disaster to make people aware of danger which exists alongside us throughout every hour cf every day life in itself it thiuprom possession to parents however what can it mean if through their own lack ol supervision that precious thing it taken from a child parents thould at all timet take the greatest care of youngttert it it the duty of every man and woman to look after our young seople if a child any child it lean playing in any particular place where there could be possible danger it it up to all of us to give a warning that warning which will only take very little of our time to give might mean the difference between that child s life or death it is a grave responsibility and it rests upon the shoulders of every member of the community particularly on those of parents any negligence which places a child without the bounds of neces sary supervision even for a very brief period of time may be fatal let s have a oyous summertime but let us all do our part to protect the children from the dangerswhicharo toobviousto some-of-us-who- aie older and more experienced certainly im taxpayer that how i got this condition tough job official grading of tourist establishments as is now being attempted in four provinces will be quite a job thinks the financial post it says- even with such tangible things as eggs but ter lumber and wheat grading has some disad vantagesahd limitations there istxjuncfto be a tendency to bring quality down to official re quirements rather than to push it higher and when we come to intangibles like services which bulk so largely in the tourist business the diffi culties increase a great deal will depend on the individual preferences of the tourist some people may want a quiet place others would find it boring some may want socalled plain cooking others will be disappointed without frills some will ex pect showers television tickertapes steam heat and a whole lot of other things hardy souls may crave merely a camp cot or a sleeping bag and what about scenery climate and geography what government inspector can hope to put a yardstick on fhese we must still rely on education competition and training to improve our tourist accommoda tion an official sign over the front door will not mean very much unless there is some real intelli gence and ability behind it north e ast west south when teachers play truant its the eastern mps who skip parliament most argues the calgary herald whether represent ing an ontario or quebec constituency is a more arduous ipb than representing a western riding or whether easterners get tired more easily we do not know but tt is the eastern mps who seem to fmd the overlong weekend essential to their wellbeing they can also cover their tracks more easily the drill is to get your name into hansard early friday afternoon even if you ust say boo to the speaker and then dash to the railway sta tion then you gallop into the house ust before adjournment late monday night and say boo again and again get this deathless remark into hansard there you are the record says you were m the house both friday and monday when m fact you were playing hookey m toronto or montreal the tram schedules are very co operative time and geography militate against western mps maybe its time we put bear traps under each desk privacy for murdcrrr one of the

snubbed by the ford plant the sign at the plant bears the name of oakville with nary a men tion of the township where the plant is exclusively located com plained the reeve they dbnt eee fit to put trafalgar on the sign if we have a township good enough for them to build in we should have our name on the sign the company should make the name ford of trafalgar or at least ford of trafalgar and
