ONTARIO TRURSDAY, MARC!! l7th, 1049 1PONTYPOOL, Ahs a boy wzused ta t.hak that the ielawwhacould pull out a Wi1tham watch with a bit of a flaùnlish was a mian ai distinction. Therefare, resolvýed to work hard, save aur money, and purchase ane of these drcamn watches. When we had suificicat maney saved, we met and marrieO Winpie Spanics insteadofbYn thc aina.aiuyn Until a' Month a go we had al,, ays sùpposed that the "Wal- tham" was simply a naine tagged onto this farnious timepiece, but had no other significance. On aur way ta Lexington, Mass. during aur recent holidays, we passed through the town of Waltham, Mass.,' and, discovered that iL is the place where this beautiful and depçndable timepiece is manu- factured. It is a real nice town. So pice, we paid it a retura visit, onI1 .ta iind Îthat the iactory la not opérating. Some Swiss watch- makýrs have offered the Waltham people assistance in the way Qf the veny latest watch-making nmachinery, because they (the Swiss) re;ýIize that a comiunity depending niainly on ane industry can be bit pretty bard if that par- ticula.r industny isn't fuactianinig. WNe thinic the Swiss aifer was vep'y sporting and trust it may be prpductive of. good. Npt only ta enable the townsfolk ai Waltham ta, survive, but, also ta manu- fatrea watcb which we will bu ifwe don*t get sidetracked a :second time). While hunching in the splendid- Iy appointed cafeterla at Lake .$ucceus, a chap, about 58 or 80 years of age as*ed to share aur table. Hle turned dut to be Rev. Benedetto Pascale, an Italian, wbo had renounced the Roman Catliolc'religion, and for nany yeats, has been a Eaptist'mlnister. in charge of a pastarate at Silver Lake, N.J. He is' the persan who chal.Ienged Rev. Prof. A. DeMaria, Roman Catholie Priest, ta a de- tiate upon the t.hesîs, "Which is the true Church oi Christ?" The debate took place before a public audience af mare than two thousand people. We have been privileged ta read the stenographic report af this historie debate and have ta admit that Mr. Pascale certainly wan rthe debate hands down. r.Paiscale introduced us ta a Sulgarian gentlemen, who is both an Arnierican citizen and a Protestant inniter. This latter gentleman had only been return- ed a iortnight fzom a nine- months soi ourn in Hun~gary. He stated that, the Governinental personnel of that country had treated him like a prince, had allowed him ta travel where he wished, in fact, had put no ob- stacle in his way, on condition that he take no part in any political debate or activity. At the time we met him, there was a lot of hysterical outýursts in Canadaand tbie U.S. about the arrest and-trial of Cardinal Minds- zenty, in Hungary, on charges of 1su~bversive activities and traffick- ing in illegal currency deals. Our new acquaintance stated that the Hungarian Government wab~ ta offer you the finesi points, varnishes and enamnels onth % masarke -everylhi ng you need for spring pinting.

Our acqaintances pointed out that countries that were predominant. ly Rôman Catholic wére the cnes turnlng ta Con=DuIJjsm. We no- tice that the Scandinavian court- tries, as well as others, classed as Protestant, don'tappear ta be gob- bling the Comniunist bait too quickly. It was Mr. Pascale who, later, introduced us to a chap, floW 4 Protestant miaister af Jewish oigin. It was the iirst time in aur ýives that we had even shook hands with a "Christian" .Jew.' We regret wc caxnnot report any favourable change in Mr.'George White's physîcal condition. Our local hockey teamn made the Bureketon boys say "Uncle'" last Thursday eveni.ng. îce harvest is la full swing in this ares. We doubt if Geor ge James ever wrote an Editorial ta compare with the one appéaring in last week's issue of Týe Statçsman, entitled, "It Isn't Jus t a Family Matten" .Any reader who missed it, should acquire a cepy and rcad it over twice. It n9t only disclosed the policy of the paper towards the present regime, which we considen a bold course. But, added imn,urably ta the stature of the man who wrote the article. If the C *C.F. doepn't run a can- didate in this riding, their ad- herents will be in an awful fix. They swear they wan't vote for the Tories and have no use for The Statesman, whîjch includes Jahnny James, the Gnit candi- date.
