the acton free press acton ontario tiiuhsimy siftemker is 19w getting more outvof it many folks have learned long after school days are completed that there are subects which life experience has shown would be beneficial end a source of pleasure in their evary day life if the privilege was available for continuance of study ii is with this thought in mind that night classes in various subjects have been made avail able in the towns of milton acton and george town for the past few years that these classes were appreciated is evi denced by the popular demand for their contin uance in all three towns there ore available fine school buildings to give their greatest return on the investment they need to be in use for more hours that school age pupils require ar rangements are now in progress for those beyond school age to make use of the facilities and take the courses again this year from here on the sue cess or failure depends entirely on those who want these courses past experience has proven that the group does profit from these classes with more facilities it is to be hoped there will be even more participate in each of the towns and rhar leisure hours will find joy m continued educa tion and acquiring of new skills prevention can help we are very thankful that we are not one ot those who suffer from that chronic malady known as hay fever which is particularly distracting at this season when the hay is all in and the weeds are in full bloom when we look at the luxuriant growth of yellow golden rod to be found on vacant properties we are not struck by its prolific bloom but by a feeling all is not being done that might be accomplished for the relief of sufferers from hay fever we hear a great deal about preventative medicine the urge is made to have periodic check ups on one s health perhaps this could be carried a little further o have a more thorough clean up of the weeds that cause so much discom fort to many people at this time of year we do not say there has been any neglect of duty but we do see a needless growth of weeds their destruction is not only one for municipal attention but one in which every property owner can co operate elimination of these weeds will earn the grati tude of all sufferers from hay fever it will also make a better appearance of any property youth and challenges it has been many a year since any sports event has stirred canadians as deeply as the effort of marilyn bell who completed the swim across cold lake ontario last week there was a time when a swimming event was quite an attraction it was developed when another unknown can adian of that time george young fought through a night to accomplish a swim that had heretofore been a challenge we have been wondering just what was the motivation of public feeling that suddenly proected an almost unknown girl of 16 years into such prominence most everyone has an opinion on mis and no doubt all of them were steps of marilyn bells climb to fame judging from reports it would seem that marilyn was hav ing some difficulty getting understanding of pub lie acclaim too it was not as familiar to her as lake ontario there are some thoughts that have had pro m nence m our analysis of our own view of the event one of course is our adm ration for the fearless oulh of today m lack i ng the urxonquer d there s h i0 too n reali ng that the olih of today are

of gold was no myth but a reality there s a lesson m this for the mature th nk ng as well as the youthful th nk rq we need more people who w ii fae the world s challenges alone and unafraid willingness to prove their worth before asking the reward the inspiration which marilyn boll and gua ryder have givan to the thinking of canadians is appreciated may they both hove guidance and steadfastness in this world of acclaim to hold fast to the principles that have placed them on their present high pedestal of fame reading bhwn tfo urmt swelling education costs here everywhere prompt bad solution by jahn hlmh some things unchanged there have been many changes in the 42 years since acton fair held its first annual exhibi tion having followed most of them in these two score years we are tempted to reminisce a bit as the event of 1954 comes up forty two years ago patrons and exhibitors were limited to the immediate locality livestock had to be driven to the fair on the hoof there were no tiucks to bring in stock for miles around every property in town was surrounded by a fence and the gates were kept shut against stray animals the first day of the fair was really a pre paration day and it sure was needed when ac ton fair started the age of mechanization had not got underway the midway was composed no made up would be a belttr word of shows and games the mechanization did not include even a portable merry go round those were the days when the first motion pictures flickered on the screen and the big toronto fire was a thriller the drill shed was the place for hall exhibits and the first night was a preview of the prize winners and a pro gram by acton citizens band under the leader ship of john hll there have been many changes since george havill and george hynds headed that first event 42 years ago but there are some things which never change about acton fair one of them is the opportunity for meeting friends remember how that first year the 48th highlanders band came by tram and the old boys and girls paraded down the street from the station difference is now they come by ones and twos and cars but they come and the welcome is ust as warm the exhibits of the farm are there and they are better there s the sale of fruit the same as in early years and balloons are still an attraction like apples on a stick and popcorn people eat more since the buns and compact meat forms are avail able just as it was in 1912 the weather for fair days is a mighty important factor in the success and enoyment of the event the fair on friday and saturday of this week is a vast improvement since 1912 but all the good features still remain and are unchanged ii wui lucotiruklni to number l hit north llultun llticti school dmlrlil lltmrd uml

driving we couldn t help thinking more along lhat line few churches can afford the installation price of the necessary light mg equipment yet it is one of the prerequisites of the construction of a new industrial plant its lust good advertising to light the sign on the plants but how many of our churches have the necessary lights to make them stand out at night perhaps its t me we started spotlighting our churches it s ust possible it might lead to giving them the prominence we give our industr al might and conlmu ng growth perhaps t would help lead more people to a mental spoil ght ng
