history following dtoiely on the grand stand at the park in similarfainton luckily the old town bell had been removed tome fears ago and its prominent position in ront cf the fireball will keep us m mind of fhose days wheri the budding was a focal jomt of the towns community life t the town hahi will now foin the high chool demolished over a decade ago now jo make way for a brand new edifice and jhe old radial station where the new mal- fon peril trust building now stands in his tory s ghost town j other past links which have given way to progress are tho creelman building on its a big land i a holiday motor trip to the east coast ihould be a must on everyone s travel list if only to impress on canadians the fnagnitudc of this land in which we live we travelled the gaspe peninsula oute visiting prince edward island and cape breton then on to halifax the a na pahs valley and back to new brunswick or a glimpse of saint john and fredencton it is a perfect time of year for the trav eller who can delay his vacation until the fall leaves were at just the right turning oint and weather was that perfect late jjulumn warm those prcc ous in between jays before frost makes its i roads on the flowers like every ontario resident who makes hie trip we came home filled with de- main street once flourishing industry replaced by m new block of stores the white rose tervice station across the road for a similar purpose the clay products building on king street razed by fire gone loo is the creamery building on lite highway with only portions remaining after a fire the roxy theatre on

acoustics the building had an impressive took and should have been kept in repair rather than allowed to crum ble away and become a pigeons roost hghtful scenery but somewhat sad to find hat our province of plenty is not typical of the eastern part of our dominion scenery is fine for the visitor but you can t eat il at times in the maritime we wondered wkat would happen if road bull ding stopped and school buses ceaed to operate for these seemed to be among the main industries the famed annapolis valley is lush in contrast to tne topography a few miles away but to an eye accustomed to western ontario s fine farmland seemed less than the parad se we had pictured the cap breton highlands provided spectacular views and supero tourist accommodation but pity the man who tr cd to farm

mantimes of onen whose ancestral roots are deep fun nelling them into ontario because they want to eat want their children to have a future which the east can t give them as more and more easterners come here wo aggravate our housing problems inflate our property values create desperate conditions in our cities with the only answer staggering subsidies so more and more hou ses can be bult lo hquse more and more people would it not be better for our govern nnent to consider channelling these subsid ies in t ie other direct on eourag ng in tfustry to settle in the east where there are already established communities where people want to stay would it be any more expensive to pay industry to locate there than to pour millions into housing subsid es and as western ontario grows bring
