FOUR ________ *Water Supply ,,Still Insufficient a.May Go To Lake The consumption o! water for domestic and business use in Bow- w anville has reached a record i.;-800,000 Imperial galions daîly and .,,It appears ta be on thé increase. . Although the recently erected 330,000 gallon water tank on Di- v'ýision Street is effectively cater- ing ta the increased demand dur- 1 g.tlbe-fi;st tour days of the week, ocording ýtt one informant, if Pte-demand continues ta increase, 'Te. quicker vwe get- ta the Lake At the presenttime, water used 1n 'the Town xsystem is derived I"leu6ri kine'ssprings about nine j, miles north of Bowmanville, aid- Sed substantiaiiy by a booster sup- ply pumped fram a source an Ev- erton White's farm. The White f arm is five miles frorn Town. Water fram tbe latter source is pumped inta the gravity line fram *Skinner's springs and piped ta Bowmnanville, forced under the -Town tank and into the water lines feeding domcstic and bus- inmess establishments. The weigbt o! the water in the tank keeps the pressure in the lines a constant 58 pounds per square inch. The South Ward, however, tends ta bave a bigher pressure due ta the gravity farce boost experi- *enced when water flows down bil. A spakesman at thq Public Utilities said that an increase in daiiy water consumptictn can- nat be avoicIed. New homes have încreased the demand consider- ably, and industry, working aver- i time and on shiftwork, draws a great deal of water from the sys- tem. L Bowmanvilie is expected ta ex- pand considerably within the next 25 years, and if sufficient water supply is ta be guaranteed, the only solution appears ta be thel monopolization of the unlimitedi water supply available in Lake Ontario. Should this plan go into effeet. a 16 inch pipe would run from Lake Ontario ta the pump-1 house in Town, and after chiorin- ation and pracessing, an uniim- ited suppiy of water could bc offered ta the community.

Trinity W.M.S. Hears Talk on Bqla Bca The re-cular meeting o! the Trinity W.M.S. was beld in the Sunday Schoal room on Tuesday, Oct. 3 with the President, Mrs. Hoskin presiding for the business. The highlight of the meeting was a very interesting talk by :«Iiss Bessy Snowden wbo spent a year in Bala Bala. Among many inspirationai experiences she told o! the Indians' life, their homes, food and chiidren. Miss Snawden expiained how she heiped start a mission schoai of wvhich they were very proud. Wben she left they presented ber with a beautiful pendant and ear- rings. It certainiy must bave been a wonderful experienIce. Miss Betty Sîsson sang a beau- tiful solo "I beard a Farest Pray- îng." Mrs., Eiliott gave a most in- teresting talk on Temperance. Mrs. Hoskin brought a few thoughts that she beardwhen in Toronto. Dr. Kagawa stressed very much the need for mission- aries ta go ta the foreign fields. Tihe meeting ciosed with prayer. DISCIPLINING WORDS (by Jasepb Lister Rutledge) "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said. is a rather scorn- fui tone, "it means just what I choase it ta mean-neither mare nor less." "The question is," said Alice, "whether yau can make words mean so many different things." "The question is,'" said Humpty Dumpty, "which is ta be master- that's ail." This bit of dialogue from Lewis Carroll's "Thraugh the Loaking Glass" cames ta mind in refer- ence ta a recent C.B.C. "Week- ' end Review" program. One of Ithe speakers, Prafessor Harrison of Queen's University. no daubt voiced an entirely honest convic- i tion when he saîd o! the govern- Iment's action in bringing the rail strike ta a close: "We've won a victory for the cause wbich is everywbere being challenged- the cause of maderation, fairness, compramise and the rule o! law." tWe wonder whether we are do- ing the prafessor an Injustice in tbinkîng that this sounds very like Humpty Dumfpty's pblicy o! making words mean what you mean them to mean, What victory, for instance, have we gained? We have proved that, as yet, the un- ions don't want ta try ta draw conclusions with the government. But we were speaking o! moder- ation, fairness and compromise. Now where do they came in? Campromise wasn't very notable in the pre-strike taîka. In fact when the rallroads made some concessions that many consider- ed reasonable, they, were haugbt- iy rejected. The unions conced- cd nothing. We don't tbink that either.moderation or fairness, ex- cept in some Humpty Dumpty sense, apply ta the government action. After setting up machin- ery for ar'bitratIon, il began by conceding immediatciy dlaims o! labor that had been the chie! s tumbling block ta agreement. It granted interim increases in wag- es. It assured labour that arbi- tration would give the workers, in addition. at least no les. thanf the railroad's off er that labour i had so cavalierly rejected. In other words arbitration was ta begin with ail cards care!ully stackcd against one of the dis- putants. ICAnather commentator, Juanita Chambers, had another approach. iShe saw the labour legilation causing marked uneasineas. "For," saîd she, "honeycoat it as we may, it is stiil a measure of compul- sion?, That might lead anc ta ask: Is compulsion an admirable thing when it works against the inter- ests o! the majorîty for the I- tartai o!the nunority, anId a sin- 'THE CANADIAN STA'rESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO New Preaident of U.N.

Study the market carefuily, feature by feature and value by value. Then compare the Chevrolet price tag with that of any comparable car. You'Il find beyond doubt that this impressive, powerful, six-passenger automobile is the value-leader by far!I For ail the power you want when you want it, with consistently economical fuel consumptiors, there's no better engine than the highly-improved Chevrolet valve-in-head, with its ultra-efficient new carburetor. And that's not ail! Many thousands of enthusiastic owners will testify that Chevrolet needs less main- tenance, less servicing than any comparable car. Just get behind the wheel of a Chevroiet, and you'Il soon know the meaning of brilliant performance. In city traffic, an busy highways, on rough back roads, Chevrolet bas the edge on ail its rivais. And it stays at the peak of its performance, - mile after mile, month after month. ~ i à 19 aîi~î * There's hip,.roora, head-roomn, leg-room and room to s pare for six aduit passengers in a Chevroiet.

No wonder it is rcnowned for delivcring dependable, troubie-free performance under ail conditionsl e lt's best in its class for styling, for performance, for comfort and for opera- ting-economies - ,yet it costs far less than any comparable car. That's wliy Chevrolet is first in valuel Let th-e record speak for itself! In a recent impartial survey conducted among tIiou- sands of motorists, Chevrolet proved to be in greater popular demnand than. any other car. No wonder Canadians buy more Chev- rolets than any other make of car. They know that Chevrolet, buit and .proved in Canada for Canadians, is unequalled at its price for comfort, safety, lasting beauty and ail-round dependability. w. Here's convincing proof that throughout years, Chev- rolet has earned a reputation for unwavering ex- cellence! In a recently conducted éoast-ta-coast survey, an overwhelming majority of znotorists namied Repu- ta! ion as the most conipeiling reason for Chevrolet* popularity. In every detail, the new Chevrolet is in the very forefront of the style parade. Those flowing, graceful lines radiate quality fromn every -angle. And don't forget - its consistently advanced styling is one reason why Chevrolet is tops for trade-in value. From the blueprint stage onward, built.in safety factors are an integrai coniponent of evMr Chevaolec. The imnienseiy strong box girdeg steel framre . .. the exclusive Certi-Safe hydraulic brakes for quick, con- tralled stopping . . the ample reserve of power in the valve-in-head engine - ai these and many osher Chevroiet features are designed for your protection. Records prove that tised car buyers a# well as new,- car buyers consistently favor Chevrolet over othei" cars. That's because Chevrolet is hirst in the low-pricé field with ail the qualities of much higher priced catl, and aiso because it's renowned for dependable, year-' ini, year-out performance.
