to a deben ture issue for a street paving program that will give acton a town with roadways that will be second to none jusl as soon as the roads in new subdivisions have consolidated and installations have been completed it is hoped that all streets will be paved council should be commended on the forward step present day use of roads in town has changed in the past few years gravel surfaces will no longer stand traffic and dust preventa tives are a temporary alleviation for the summer time problem just as the old sprinkling cart had its day back 50 years ago with the paving con tract will undoubtedly be included a proper drain age installation that will take the surface water away quickly and catchbasins of a more satis factory type than those presently in use when the paving program gets underway it behooves citizens to work cooperatively with the plans if you want 6n extra width along your property be prepared to pay for the extra surface we like the spirit of the folks along peel street who realizing municipal problerns of financing built their own sidewalk and its just about the finest piece of sidewalk in town it takes all the citizens to make acton a fine town and the kind of a town we want boating safety canada is a land of many waters and it is not surprising that the historicsport of boating should be gaining in popularity in nova scotia boatbuilders have organized a cooperative agency to sell their products to a growingnarket on the west coast people tired of crowded highways are taking more and more to the water one of the great pleasures in life is to rush through the water in a powered craft or skip along silently in a sailboat heeling nicely in a stiff breeze or perhaps glide silently in a canoe on some secluded waterway but there is always danger for novices and those too careless to observe a few simple rules of boating safety the toll in boating accidents each year is heavy and in a good many cases unnecessary a few simple precautions and a good sprink ling of common sense would go far to reduce this loss first of course you should know your craft and how to handle it before setting out if you dont know how take alqng someone who does or dont go but even before you set out make sure your boat is safe and carries the proper gear sparegasoline paddles rope compass match es food in short the items that would get you out of any emergency that might crop up the first step in boating safety is not to over load carry enough lifesaving devices for all passengers once on your way observe the rules of the highway basically the rule is to keep to the right but there are others and you should know them courtesy is necessary just as on the road a good many pilots of larger powered craft have an irritating habit of cutting across the bow of smaller craft an annoying thing at least and often dangerous according to the outboard boating club of america the most common causes ef accidents ndthe things to watch for are these 1 too many people in the boat 2 failure to keep a sharp lookout anxi 3 speeding at the wrong time and place in short it boils down to the use of common senee and courtesy there is encouragement in recent decisions in the united states to bar certain athletes from amateur competition because of their heavy ex pense accounts and it is significant tfiat some promoters and college authorities have drawn as much criticism as the athletes themselves dart mouth ns free press summer thefts will cost canadians more than 6000 a day for insured losses alone during the holiday months

and vehic les of prewar vintage are rapidly disappearing from the nations highways canadian automobile chamber of commerce reports that 784000 passenger cars and 21 2000 commercial vehicles have been withdrawn from use since the end of world war ii the figure is determined from analysis of license statistics of all provinces in conjunction with figures on new car sales last year some 152100 cars and 16700 trucks were taken out of use that means that about 37 per cent of all cars and trucks produced in canada in 1955 were needed to replace vehic les that had been scrapped there were 1200000
