Your Con verted Bonds Wil Be Well Guarded Un fil Their Cremation Victory Bonds being cn verted bere by local residents are destined te become part of Canada's most thoroughly ex- amined pile o! ashes. Having been exchanged for new bonds o! the Canada Con- version Loan, and thus corn- pleted its mission, each o! the old Victery's will end up at furnaces o! the Bank o! Can- ada, in Ottawa. Already, in cities, towns andi vilIa4es across Canada, over1 bal! of the total dollar amount1 o! the old bonds outstanding, have been earmarked te share in this, the biggest bond-burn- 1 ing job in the country's his -j tory. Every day, through con-I version both o! large blocksl and o! individual fifty and one-~ bundred dollars bonds held by thousands upon thousands of Canadians, more are Joinir±g the list. Soelaborate are the Bank o! Canada's precautions against a canccfld bond getting back into circuilation that officiais of four cifferent bank depart- inents share in the burning. 1 GET MHE0WatO'STORY rTODA Y! no obligation es Iow as $119.00 JACK ISEOUGHi PLUMBING Division and REATING Street South 1 MA 3-5615 BOWMANVILLE1 The night previous, bonds are taken !rom the storage vault shelves and placed in wheeled carniages. The four department representatives are each responsible for one lock on the carniage, and remain in possession of the keys. These carniages remain in the locked vault overnight. Next morning, the carniages are taken down te a room con- nected te the incinerators by twe chutes. Here, twe teams ef Bank employees are waiting, on~e teamn remaining at the top o! the chutes and sliding the bonds down te the stokers at the incinerator level below. This is "the room o! the 20 locks", heavily guarded and protected. Lockg in sets of four are placed net onIy on the doors o! the incinerators but on any other sections of furnaces which provide possible en- trance te the fire-box, such as the flue cleanouts. Five sets of padlocks are used in this one roors. For twro days the bonds are left in the furnaces te burn. Then, the ashes are carefully sifted and examined te make sure that net a trace of the bonds remains. Agaii, the four representatives partîcipate in the examinatien. At the Band o! Canada al bonds, after being checked, re- corded and photographed, on microfilm, -are stored for at least a year. Hence, burning o! the Vic- tory's will probably take place next summer. In the mean- time, the heavy influx o! can- celled bonds will encourage the bond-burners te hasten burning o! other cancelled bonds to make room on the s9tonage vault shelve's.

A "Big» picture with su- perb performances. The tangled threads o! fani- ily conflict and tierce personal drives are woven int a com- pelling entertainment tapestry in Jerry Wald's production o! William Faulkner's The Long, Hot Sumnmer. The mark o! Faulknerian South, with its sultry atmosphere and varied emotional iAches, are strongly stamped on the film story. The stunningly staged production runs a robust 117 minutes and is frained in proud CinemaScope and DeLuxe color. The story is a compound o!i violent clashes of wills and events, and the acting is on a level equal to the strong de- mands of the screenplay by Irv- ing »avetch and Harriet Frank, Jr. As the fat.her and plantation patriarch, Orson Welles scuttles ever bis sprawling acres like an overweight insect. Between running the town and holding an after-hours life with Angela Lansbury, Welles is famished for grandchildren and concerned over the unmar- ried state of his daughter, Jo- anne Woodward. Another son of bis, Anthony Franciosa, lacks the fierce drive of his father, and spends all his spare time in amorous activity with his pret- ty wife, Lee Remick. Into this household one day drifts Paul Newman, a shîftless, cunning, ambitious young man with a barn-storming record. Martin Ritt's direction keeps the events moving at a zestful pace, punctuated by sequences of dramatic explosiveness and character and story building in- terludes. The music by Alex North and the photography by Joseph La Shelle aid measurably in the heightening of the pleasurable effect of the picture. Performances are outstanding but even in such competition Welles stands out with an Ac- ademy Award stature portrayal. Premier Frost Announces Road Program Premier Frost announced a $100,000,000 road program that will bring a network of Ontario highways up to Trans-Canada highway standards and includes the construction of five tol bridges and several new high- ways. The new highways and bridges will be known as the Ontario system of Trans-Can- ada highway. Among these la a nine-mile Lindsay cut-off that will form part of the Trans-Canada high- way, and a system of new and rebuilt roads that will take the super highway south of Peter- borough to Highway 7 and on to Perth and Ottawa. Construction began three years ago on these projects. A department o! highways of- ficial in Port Hope said the route of the Trans-Canada high- way through this area is part of the Georgian Bay and South- ern Ontario route, and runs from Sudbury to Parry Sound Via Hxighway 69; to Waubau- shene via Highway 103; to Or- illia and Lindsay via Highways 12 and 7, to Peterborough and Ottawa via Highway 7. Cut New Road Three years ago, men and maohinery began cutting a new road from Oakwood, west of Lindsay on Highway 7. This rime-mile stretch runs south of Lindsay and rejoins Highway 7. Two bridges are included in it. The department of highways officials said it would be in use this fail. It is being paved riow. From Highway 7 south of Lindsay, the Trans-Canada route joins Highway 133 at Fow- lers Corners. lb runs south o! Peterborough and crosses the new section o! Highway 28 be- tween Scott's Corners and the Fice Mile Turn. The re-construction o! High- MORRISH The regular monthly meeting of the W.A. was held on Wed- nesday, August l3th at 8 p.m. at the home o!

Canada. The writer states that the morale implica- tions o! alcobolism are primarily effects rather than cause e! the disease. Compulsive drinking is im- mune te punishment and serm- onizîng. Alcobolism is a disease wbich is best assailable under a compassionate and concerîed aI- tack by many segments of se- ciety. One reason that alcohol- ism is such a difficult disease is that its exciting agent, alcobol, is a twe-!aced creature - a liquid that holds both good and evil, that can provide nelease or can enslave, the article continu- practice on Tuesday, i9th, aI the church.

M CANADIAN Free!1 Power mowers are labour saving tools - but bhey cari be deadhy machines that maim and kill, according to an' article in "Today's Heath", published by the American Medical Associa- tion and received at the Health. League of Canada. 1,085 phys- icians reported 737 power lawn mower accidents. 69.6% o! the injuries were by direct contact with the mower and 30.4% were injuries caused by objects thrown by the mower. Many people do not realize that a four-cycle engine burri- ing a 20-inch blade at 3,000 revolutions a minute can pick up a nail or stone and burl it aI 170 miles per hour. 82% of the accidents were caused by the gasoline rotary type because the blade whirls at a higber rate of speed. It is estîmaîed that during one summner 10,000 per- sons throughout the U.S.A. were injured by rotary lawn mowers. The articles continues that the folowing points are important when buying a new mower. (1) The handie o! the mnower shouhd be long eneugh se that the operator cannet pull the mower back onto his feet. (2) Wheels sbould be large enough to give easy operation over rough or uneven terrain.
