diminishing respect datecrallon in a cemetery it always hocking thall why were particularly hocked and duguited that nonet have been toppled in the pioneer cemetery officials of the towns original cemetery had the fortesight back in 1033 to gather ihe ltonet into a central cairn to make main tenance of the area as eaiy at possible and to make the tribute to the towns pioneers at attractive et possible somewhere along the way weve ap parent y lost the retpecl that was evidenced in the establishment of the calm recently viewing the pioneer cemetery we noticed a number of stones of the large type upset there are not many stones thai can be disturbed in the area but one was the stone paying tribute to those who worked in forming the cairn ai will be teen from the picture on the editorial

maionty will be from the united states most of these welcome summer resi dents have been coming back year after year and in renewing old friendships with cana diant it it inevitable that a discussion of political and economic affairs as affecting our two eountrlet is bound to come up since our visitors were here last sum mer much has occurqd they have acquired a brand new president the cold war has grown warmer in the far east castro has enlarged on his bug america campaign and the race for space is reaching the really big ttage closer to home there has been a continuing growth of a canadian nation alistic tpirit canadians are asserting a more pronounced procanadianism in the past year and unfortunately our amer can friends interpret this trend as a piece of ami ameri canism ir would be easy for us to dismiss such concern on the part of our u s friends as the mere reflection of excessive sensitivity but since much of t emanates from sources normally sympathet c to the canadian view points it ought not to be so i ghtl dismissed canad ans are a free people and as such like to formulate thou own polic es and pat tern the r on economy however we are so lacing the recently we have become concerned at the climb ng price on public service unpop ular as the increases to municipal councils and boards usually are most fear to obect unless they also are asked to do the ob whether it is lack of pride in community or an indication of this ages continual pur suit ol the almighty doll w it s difficult to decide recently georgetown count i increased their mayors annual fee to 500 and

london two such actions within a short spice of time invariably are taken to mean that we are in anti american or and britain mood as the esse may be and once in a while we even marngcuqget accused of being both the eminent actor sir ceclnc hardwicke in commenting on this sad the real luxury in being ganadian is that you can be anti british and anti american at one and the sime time we assume sir cednc was endeavor ing to be witty and entertaninq but the truth remains that it is harder for camda to take even the occasioml independent line than it is for most countries however pro camdnnism does not and should not mean anti americanism and so far as possible we should exercise the great est care to see thai it is not so construed we should understand ih s and we should ex plain it to our

have been beautiful in recent years through the care and interest of w g o oakes and wil liam graham inch- interest in tho site is on couraging but seeing stones toppled by vandals is for from encburaging to many residents tho pioneer cemetery is probably unknown it was in use how ever from 130 lo 1885 located as it was close to the knox church it was iho last rest ing place of rev zenas adams one of tho founders of ihe town many other pioneers are buried there and thearea is deserving of respect surely something in the way of added police patrolling will be undertaken to avoid
