Our staff has started holidays, lcaving us somewhat shortha&dcd. As a resuit, there just wasn't enough time ta set in type al the news receivcd. This situation wiil probably continue throughout the summer nionths and we ask subscribers and news correspondents ta bear with us. Incidcntally, due ta the holiday next Monday, we shahl be even shorter for time than 4 usual. Advertisers and correspondents are re- quested ta have copy ready as early as possible. t. t t t t IN THE PAST - This wcek we received an article from Douglas Cunningham who wvas living with George Mason an Argyle St. He found it while browsing through sorte aid papers. It gives details of Bowmanville back in 1849 when there wvere 500 inhabitants, anc physician and surgeon, one grist miii, anc oatmeai miii, one tannery, anc distil1cry, anc carding machine and cioth factory, anc axe factory. anc ashery (whatcver that was), seven stores, four tavcrns, anc brewcry, one drug- o~t nc pottcry, twa wagon makers, three black- sitW, anc chair factory, twa bakers, two watch- gsnakers, six shoemnakcrs, six tailors. There were àlso five churches and with ail those taverns, dis- tilleries and breweries here, they certainiy must have needed thcm. FLAGS OUT- This weekend should sec falks digging into their closets and trunks ta find flags ta fiy on Dominion Day holiday. This is a practice that in recent years scems ta have been aimost discarded but certainiy would be worth continu- ing. It rcminds us that Canada became a coun- try instcad of several independent provinces on that day, 96 vears ago. Rather important, don't you thînk? Unfartunately, we are stili squabbling about some of the details, but they should be iran- ed out 'i another 100 years or so.
