The Playgrounds will be divided inta two graups, two Tiny Tot areas for children six and under, and three centres for the elder children. A typical day's programme for the Tiny Tats would include such activities as singing, group games, plasticine modelling, paper de- signing and stary-tellrng. In the aIder age graup, the variaus activities will include or- ganized înter-playground campe- titian in such sparts as softball, volîcyball, quaits, table tennis and tether ball. In canjunctian with this pro- gramme, swimming classes will be organized and instruction given ta bath non-swimmers and thase wishing ta imprave.

CARtL IN'S" THE CARLING BREWERIES LIMITJED WATERLOO, ONTARIO t 0 194 I9CARLING80 The Youath in The Flophouse (By Lewis Milligan) Several readers have taken ex- ception ta my recent article en- titled "Mind Your Ovin Business", in which I referred ta a seriaus of articles in a Toronto paper deal- ing with the human interest side of the unemplaymcnit situatian in that city. The words "Mind your awn business" were addressed ta the reporter by a yauth with whomn he tried ta sympathize when he cverheard him sobbing ta himself ane night in a flop- house. In my comment I said: "Somehow I admired the lad's blunt independence. It was his business . . . he was going ta see it through. He wept, but he did not whine". The reporter told of other young men who had came ta the city seeking jobs on the construction of the new underground street railway. He said that he found that same af the unemployed were shiftless and content ta sit around in the employment offices and blame everybady but themselves, particularly the government and social system, for their position. My article concluded as follows: "It may well be that we are running into a brief periad of un- employment, and everything pas- sible should be done ta prevent it and assist those who are ho- estly seekine work. We have all had aur hard times and can sym- pathize with thase who are pass- ing through them, but there is fia cause for alarma if every Canadian will mind his awn business, and mmnd it well. As the above cited cases show, the problema is largely an individual one". It was ta this paragraph that my critics took exception. Gardon Norman, Bridgetown (N.S.), ac- cuses me of being callous and "aloof", and he concludes "I would solicit another article con- taining a true account of his (my) struggles and hard times referred ta which led hlm ta sympathize sa deeply with thase who are pass- ing through them". Well, that is the flophouse, I feel like replying, a large order and, like the lad in "Mind your own business". But I detect a touch of sarcasm in Mr. Norman's request, as if he doubt- ed whether I ever had any struggles or bard times. I can assure hlm that I have had plenty of bath and would be glad ta match stories with him, but I long ago learned that people are bored with hard-luck stories, because they have enough of their own and want ta forget them. 1 recall\ 'one instance of this very many years aga when I was telling a friend of a particularly raw deal 1 had handed out ta me. Before I gat ta the end of my story I suddenly realized that in y friend was flot listening. His mmnd was far away, and I f elt that he regarded mpe as a grauch. .

This book, just published by thc Kmng's Pninter, ia the first authoritative accaunt of Uic part played by the Canadian Navy in the recent war. The layman who neads it wlll undoubtedly be sur- prised by Uic scope of importance of work which went an for nearly six years bchind a veil of official censorshhp and the characteristic reticence of Uic "silent service". The story of Canadian partici- pation in thé battle of thc Atlantic makes up a large part of the book, here, for sixty-eight months, Can- adian ships and men served with the Royal Navy and the American Navy as full partners. Canada's work was vital in holding the trade routes and later clearing them of the submarines; and the story cf the handships and achieve- ments of Canadian ships is an ab- sorbing one. It is by no means ail, however, of a story which ranges over most of the world's seas. The Canadian Navy had a ahane in the Medi- ternanean campaign revolving about the North African landings. It played a large part in the fierce U-boat campaigns along the eas- tern seaboard of North America. in the St. Lawrence River and Gulf, and along the Arctic routes ta Murmansk. Canadian destroyers were pro- minent in many brilliant actions in the Channel and the Bay of Biscay; and Canadian Ships and landing crafts took part in the landing along the coasts of Sicily,, There is no greater bore than the man who goes around with a erouch, and no more futile persan than the man who nurses one. Sa I have tried, flot always success- fully, ta keep my grouches ta my- self and to distil paetry from the bitter and rotten fruits of life. It' is a delightful pastime. "Laugh, and the world laughs with you: Weep, and yau weep alone," wrote Ella Wheeler Wilcax, and she distiiled that fram experience. One of my own first youthful at- tempts at poetry was a long effu- sion entitled "Man's Lot". It was for the mast part a melan- choly affair, but it enabled me ta think through the sorrows of man- kind and it finished on a note of triumph over them ail. That is what poetry and religion do or should do for us. Dante descend- ed into the depths of Hell, but he ascended by purgatorial steps ta the heights of vision in his Para- dise. Life an this earth is like that. if we accept it as a journey and face its hardships with faith and courage, and "keep right on ta the end of the road". We don't have ta wait for the next world for Heaven or Hell-they are bath with us. Doctor Samuel Johnson summed up the problem of hum- an happiness in these few lines: "How small, of ail that human hearts endure, That part which laws or kings can cause or cure! Stili ta ourselves in every place consigned, Our own felicity we make or find". Five chapters of the book are devated ta a full accouait af Can- adian naval participation in Op- eratian Neptune-the Normandy landings-where Canada's. con- tribution ranked next ta that of Great Britain and the United States. Twenty-six maps, several in colour, and some thirty illustra- tions are included in a handsomely pninted volume. Among the ap- pendices, anc particular interest ta former navy men, la a table showing principal Canadian shîpe and their commandlng off icers throughout the war. The stary is tald in easy and in- farmal langtiage by Joseph Sehul, a Canadian writer wha servcd with the Navy during, the war.

THINKING ABOUT HOME I?4PROVEMENT? 0 This is the time of the year when people an-d com- munities are gettini ready for the spring clean-up. It's the time for new paint jobs, new decoration schemes, important repairs to roof and structure. Most householders haye a long list of improvements they would like to see in their homes '..and so have their wives, thinking perhaps of the kitchen and laundry-room. It isn't always èasy, however, to find immediately the ready money you need for these improvements, aven though you can meet the cost comfortably out of annual income. And if that's your problem, George Moody, manager of the B of M Branch at Bowmanville,.*suggests it's worth thinking about a B of M loan for home improvement. You'll save on your bis by paying cash,,and you'Il save yourself trouble bv dealing with ail your repair bis at once. Such a B of M loan f or home improvement is re- payable in easy instalments, and the interest rate is agree- ably moderate. It cornes ta only 27 cents a month on a lo,4* of $100 repaici over twelve months. So cail on Mr. Mo241o tomorrow, and get your spring dlean-up away ta a good start. -SATURDAYS VOUR ASSURANCE 0F A PERFECT EVENING ABDY DARCH AND HIS GREAT NEW BAND DANCING - 9 -12 Table Accommodation - For 200 Admission - - - $2.00 Per Couple Look Into a Ba'nk of Montreal Loan For This Special Purpose 1 0 --------- - - --- - - THE CANADUN STATUMAN.
