entertainment in the park starting promptly at 130 a 40event track and field meet will bring not only local competitors but many from outside centres as well and attractive medals and cups are being offered to those who excel in their chosen events in the evening a garden party will draw a record crowd and the advance lineup of talent looks as if the show will be one of the best seen in the dis trict for some time while moneymaking is not the main object of the day the council is looking forward to having a tew dollars left over for there are certain expenss which accumulate outside the town paid directors sal ary and proceeds of events such as these are necessary to help council finances and in turn to provide more equipment for present and future recreational projects we ask everyones support in turning out next monday to make it a red letter civic holiday in geor getown youll get your moneys worth help a good cause and have a good holiday worth a second thought as this is writ en and in print bt fore monday night s meeting of the welcome home committer we may be barking up the wrong tree entirely when we refer to the let er which appeared m last wplic s herald about a memorial swimming pool perhaps ikl com mittee will hae decided on something mtinlv differ ent perhaps other more sui able memorials may be suggested but we do think there is a lot to be said for the plan outlined b old soldier it seems t be a general theorv nowadays that a war memorial should combine reevrcnt memory for those who lost their lives in the war with ulihtv which can be used by their more fortuna e comrades their families and the children of the community in general at the same time a community wishes to honour the men and women m uniform in a more personal way wuh some individual memento of the gratitude ot the citizenry in most cases thi memorial is taking the form of some sort of recreational building or of t hos pital while the individual gifls run all tin way from scrolls and ccr ificates to wikhns tings mci w u bon u old soldiers suggestion of t muiatip il swimm ing pool to which those to be honoured would be given life time pasies seems to bt an txtilltnt combination we have always thought gtorg own lacked t is on thing to make it a perfect communitv and it would in an excellent ulni arian memorial thi pool passi would be a good gift to any i term who enjov s a sw im and we should imagine that a goodl number of vettr ans would be pleased to receive it strike fever we are get ing tired of reading ot mi ikes and threats of strikes of demands for more pa for shorter working hours for union secuntv and the hundred ind one odd things which the working man is being led to ask for with skilful direc ion from a higher authority which derives its livelihood from keeping labour in a constant state of agitation and unrest e do not for a moment be leve ihat the status quo must btj main tained or that the perfect balance bttwetn labour and management ever can or ever will be reached for any considerable period of time but wh n demands ge too unreasonable and when they threaten the econ omic life of a country and in turn boomerang right back on labour itst if hen we think it is time that everv char thinking citizen does some of that thinking ins tt ad of being led like a pack of sheep to the slaughter georgetown has fortunately not been visited as yet by anv of the strike fever so prevalent in the coun try where uch groups as steel workers automol ile workers lumbermen newspapcrmt n and textile vork ers have been on on strike for long pt nods lach strike has meant vitd production holdups nd our shortage of clothing cars electrical ipphanct s and prac icallv evtrv consumer good one can name is due in no smal pit to these s nkes furthermore rising price are the oncrmath of concessions given leading to the inflntionarv spiral which we have seen in the united s ates when the o p a ceilings were lifted and in smaller measure in this country as first one then an other product creeps up m price a few tents at a time is it not time that we asked ourselves where all tfus is going to lead and for labour to gtv e as well as receive is it not time that the increasing demands of labour be tempered with common sense and that every one go to work to make canada the most prosperous country possible where everyone can buy what he wants to- buy
