Foxxx Summer holidays and the fu- ture voters of Oakville undertake major projects that school work has made impossible. Two young engineers undertook the construc. tion of a dugout adjacent to a large tree, Excavations were well underway when a major barrier presented itself in the form of a formidable root. This required additional equipment, An axe was secured and the root hacked into submission. Dirt removing oper- ations continued' until the arrival of a telephone company truck revealed that old root had been an underground telephone cable. The dugout was suddenly wired for sound--possibly a little lurid?

The week-end be- fore last one of our more staid business men and his wife were week-end guests, and in due course the water sport period ar- rived. Climbing aboard the aquatic plank our business man rode to glory--and a toss into the lake. No cause for consternation to the occupants of the boat, of course, for he swam well, but they found consternation was in order for the casualty as a seri- ous accident had occurred. Like a parachute jumper, when our business man had gone in the water, he or the force of impact had inadvertently pulled the rip- cord of his trunks, and he was now indulging in a skinny dip. Resisting thoughtful rescue ef- forts of those who wanted to pull him into the boat, he demanded a adjustments made, he boarded the boat and good naturedly accepted CLUB"20" | By Marion Languay It comes, and with it vacations.

"Free speech and -a free press are unknown, and now the average Russian has difficulty in grasping just what such freedom really means," he declared. "Every movement a comrade makes is Well controlled. For instance, af- ter quite a few Russian seamen deserted their ship in a foreign port, all crews were subsequently made up, of 'married men, who can't desert for fear of the con- sequences to their wives and fam- ilies."
