Wiil property owners tunn it down? No one wifl know until late Wednesday, September 10, the day of the vote. Personally,' we think artificiel ice is the only.solution ta the arena problem. It's like hiring a iaboring man. If you giva him a shovel and à shove be can oper- ate at full capacity like he should, but if he only bas haîf a shovel handie. vou can't expect him ta do much, or aven pay his awn way. When we wera youngsters there used to be plcnty of ice most of the winter. Backyerd rinks were a dime a dozen, and hockey play- ers started their cereers at the1 age of five. Today, things are dif- ferent-they just ain't what they1 used ta be, like the oid gray1 mare.1 In oui, opinion, the Kinsmen1 Club deserves a great deal ai credit for taking the responsibil-i itv ta suppiy artificiai ice for this cammunitvy. They deserve whoie- bearted support ta the lest man. ATTENTION BABY SITTERS The Sttesman has something new and dffet-ent lined up for Bowmanvilie baby sitters. We cent bring it aut yet, but if you read thîs column next week you'll get the drift. Don't miss the big stary. It meens maney in yaur pocket tbroughout the school year. NEIGHBOR BOOSTING Biiiy Yeo, that grand aid timer ni the Bowmanviile Lions Club, made a short speech boosting his neighbor, Lion Lamne Allia. And he did a fine job. But what interested us was a bit ai a comment Lion Biily made ini advance ai bis flight into rhetoric. '«If yau cent boost e znan," he said, "don't knack him." Saunds like goad advice, doesn't it? DOG PAYS HIS WAY Tom Larmer is a baseball fan ai long standing. He's aiways around the bail park when the Roses are taking the field. And he's usuaiiy accompanied by his feithfui dog. One of the boys on the bal club tells us that this dog ai Tom's is entitled ta anv seat he wents ta take in the stands. Or s0 they say. It seems ha pays his way. When Tom Larmer hits the ad- mission table beside the High Schooi he planks down 50 cents. "This is for me," ha sevs indîcat- ing 35 cents, and pointing ta the 15 cent balance, adds, "This is for my dog." IT REALLY HAPPENED We thoiight aur littie tale about the horse in a picture an the Ra- tar v Club raam weli in the Bal- moral Hotel would put an end ta speculation with regard ta Bowmianville's caim ta fame, but it didn't. Eva Whitehead and Bert John- stan of the Domninion Stare have another interesting 'dig" at aur fair tawn ta report. A wamnan waiked into the Dam- inion Store and asked Mrs. Whitehead the folawing ques- tion: -Where is the livery stable." She explained she was visiting town and wanted ta take ber grandson out into the country in a horse and buggy. The startled cashier didn't quite knaw w'iat ta make ai the qtucstion, but she finally man- aged: "There isn't any livery stable in town." "No livery stable!" the visitar said, cocking an eyebrow.

See your Goodyea Dealer sooni Statesman is always proud to head such stories "Bowmanville Boy, or, Durham County Men Makeo Good." But what are be- hind ail these success stories? The late Col. John Bayna Mac- lean, founder *of Maciean's Mag-1 azine and a host of trade publi- cations, wrote the answer in an editorial in the Financiai Post, way back in itu issue of N6v. 23, 1935. "I have observad that nearly ail successes are due to two fac- tors: First, sound home or sc'hooi training in character. And next, the training and inspiration thev get from their employers or sen-, ior associates in business or pro-,1 fassianal lufe." Employers pleese teke note. NAMESAKE NEWS We racantly read a story ia daily pper which wes date lin- ed: Sullivan, Indiana. It toid about a native of the town Nwho could go to the bank of a nearby river end have hundreds of cat- fish corne up ta the edge of the water just by caiiing "Fishie, fishia." Now isn't that some fish story. just like something that wouldi happen in Sullivan, Ind. STRICTLY FOR MOTHER When we were on our' hall- days wa barrowed a book fromn aur brother-in-law. '"You can hava it," be said. "I gat haifway through it and quit." We just finished the book-we didn't quit. Furthermore, we be- haeve it is one of the greatest books we have read ini recent years. It's not for bigh-brows, nor is it for youngsters. It is written in languaeaoa the street and it ap- peals ta us beause there is no pretanse at grandeur in the story that tells af the rise ai a great singing star. A rise out af pover- ty, carruption and sorrow. "His Eye is on the Sparrow" is the name ai the autobiography written by thet great singer, Ethel Waters, who was born out af wediock to a 13-vear-old mather in Philadeiphia. Pa. Ethel Waters is ana ai the great Ne- groes. She calîs wbites "the master race" and although she was mar- riad twice, she neyer had a child, but she adopted or help bring up 20 yaungsters, and why are we telling you aIl this? Because on page 247 af that book about a brilliant star who has at ber f in- gertips everything monev can buy, on that page begins two af the most memorebie paragraphs written. They are dedicated ta mothers ini general, they are dedi- cated ta yau. "Being a mother is what. makes a real life for a woman, not ap- pieuse, your picture in the pe- per, the roses and the telegrams yau get an opening nigiht," Ethel Waters writes. "A great many people who thînk of thernselves as poor bave that richness in their lives." "You are a persan af the great- est impartance when vau are a mather af a family. Jiîst do yaur job right and yaur kids will love you. And for that love af theirs thera is no satisfying sub- stituta."

Ail in Favor of Giving Opera House A Needed Face-Lifting Stand Up and Send in Your Donations Forthwith If the renovation bug sweep- ing through Cobourg manages to get to Bowm4anville. the old Op- era House in our Town Hall will breath a happy sigh at the thought of getting a face-lifting. 4 subscription list, according to the Sentinel Star, has been op- ened in the County Town to raise funds for assisting the Cobourg Opera and Drama Guiid in its projeet of restoring the Victory Opera House located in the State- iy Municipal Building, where the venerable member of Counties Council hoid their deliberations quarterly.

Comments Mostly Favourable To Government Decision As is usuai, the officiai word that Milibrook would get a pub- lic institution ini the form of a Reformatory, brought ta ight a few who were opposed to the building. This, of course, is not unusual, as there is always opposition to anything, good or bad, and it's a good thing there is, for if ail were of one mind there wouid be no need uf two political parties or two of any- thing else, howcver, the objec- tors seem to be greatly in the miaiority. and those in favour cen see nothing but advantage for the community. It might be painted out here that Dr. J. W. Wright, our local reeve, is the man most respon- sible for this institution coming to Miilbrook. for it was through his quick action with the powers that be that the village was con- sidered after he had cailed a spe- cial meeting of the Chember of Commerce and the Milibrook Council, to get their opinion, which was very favourable-The Millbrook Mirror-Reporter.

Recentiy, a U.S. tourist, slight- ly peeved with the exchange rate and the reduced value of the American dollar, pulled into a service station down east and paid for a tank af gas with.a $4 bill. The tourist was smug in pro- ducing the aid Canadian bil- he intimated he would show Can- adians how to get around ex- change. The service station at- tendant taok the bill; she later discovered it was worth $10. Now. a $4 bill has turned up in Bowrnanviiie. Ted Bird, Lib- erty St., produced one for The Statesman. He has had the bill for 25 years. It's dated 1882, and was issued on May 1, by a bank at Ottawa. Mr. Bird said the bill was given him as a keepsake by his father, the late R. R. Bird, C.N.R. opera- tor. So the keepsake awner can naw reat in the knawledge that the bill he awns has increased in value abotit 150 per cent ini a quarter century. How to Increase Sale of Apples J. Forbes Heyland, one of Dur- hamn County's outstanding or- chardista, bas brought ta our at- tention the foliowing article which appeared lu the August issue of the 'American Fruit Grower".
