Her Royal Highness Princess Margaret has decided that duty to her family and her Church must transcend above her own deep personal feelings. In an age of general selfishness, her example stands out like a bright light in the darkness. It will, perhaps shame _ the press agents and circulation managers, radio sponsors and others, who have tried to capi- talize.an unhappy situation for their own benefit. In all the history of commer- cial radio ,which has witnessed some epic efforts at debasing the \public taste, surely nothing was more blatantly vulgar than the use of Peter Townend's name in a radio quiz show. And the mass circulation papers showed little more regard in their frantic efforts to out-do each other, Regard for duty and respon- sibility is so rare today, that the sacrifice made by the Prin- cess has all the greater impact. So long as there are people in high places with as fine a sense of duty as that displayed by the Princess and the Royal family, there is still some hope for de- cency, even in a world domina- ted by materialism and tinselled glitter, SOME PAINTS ARE POISONOUS When doing a repaint job at home on any of the children's toys or furniture, be sure that the paint free from lead. Youngsters may bite and _ lick their toys or the bars of crib or is chairs and, if the paint has a lead base, there is danger of poisoning. Most modern toy manufacturers, being well aware of this danger, for their products that is not harmful but if old paint left around the house from various paint jobs is used, it may not be safe. When buying paint for use on toys, consult the paint dealer as to whether it contains lead. use a coating Canada has 95 daily newspa- pers, about 1,000 weekly news- papers, and 177 radio stations, of which 22 are government op- erated. M. A. CARON Plumbing and Heating Phone 695--Haileybury Eaves Trough Work Civil Service News The regular meeting the executive of the South Temisk- aming Branch of the CSA of O. was held at the home of T. R. Mills, Lake Shore Road, on the evening of October 25th. Roy Edgar occupied the chair as President replacing Reg. Tombs whose resignation was accepted at the last meeting. A new me- mber was Les Gibbons who re- places Ellis Vipond of the Eng- lehart area who also wished to be relieved of his duties. Roy Edgar will be our voting delegate from South Temisk. to The Association's annual meet- ing in Toronto on November 7-8-9 and it is hoped that Gordon Emerick will be able to accom- pany him as-an observer. Reso- lutions have been received from Monteith, Geraldton and Strat- ford who asked for our delega- te's support. Briefly these reso- lutions dealt with appointments to the permanent staff-overtime- the 40 hour week-transfers and pay increases. It was the decis- ion of the Executive that Mr. Edgar use his own discretion entirely in all matters being vo- ted upon including the office of President and other officers of the Association, It is not known just who will be seeking office of but Mr. Harold Bowen, Presi- dent, will probably be one of those nominated. The date of South Temiskam- ing's annual meeting has not been definitely settled but will follow as soon as possible after all reports from the Association annual have been received. It is fondly hoped that more memb- ers attend than in the past and to aid in this a guest speaker from the upper brackets of the Association will probably be here to present policy and aims and to show how we as a Bran- ch can best do our share in backing them up. Member's wives will be welcome as they are affected as much as_ their husbands and at the close lunch will be served. Publicity J.

THE LETTER BOX o the Editor The Haileyburian Haileybury, Ontario. Oct. 26, 1955 : Dear Sir: We wish to express our ap- preciation for the space you gave us in the Haileyburian during our recruiting Week. The Week was most successful,' phone Squadron's ranks and the Cadet strength has increased considerably. Although we are prepared and can give the young men in this district the opportunity to serve Canada and themselves with training in the militia, the success of our efforts is in a great part due to the co-opera- tion of the local newspapers in publicizing our activities. Sincerely yours, R. J. Poppleton, Capt. O.C. "C" Sqn Alg R (26 Armd R) Haileybury, Ont. Qet. 30/55. To the Editor The Haileyburian Haileybury, Ont. Dear Sir: Quoting "This town is very low as far as assessed yalue is concerned", makes me agree the assessed value is low and has not been brought up fora num- ber of years, but on the other hand, what has been' done to justify a raise in value is be- yond me. We have the same old roads as was 30 years ago. I will admit they have been grad- ed and a few drums of oil pour- ed around and kept ploughed in winter but I am sure our pres- ent tax rate covers all that. We have had, and are _ still having the odd house going up on these so called cheap value lots, but I am sure the town is getting more out of it then they are prepared to offer. Show us a program of what is to be done to better sidewalks and roads and only then should the question of a tax raise be brought up. Sincerely Yours, Ben J. Bourget We are indebted to Duncan E. Sutherland for the following extracts from a letter he bes received rom "Corky" McCrack- en, a former resident of Hailey- ury. Dear Dunc. No doubt you will be very. surprised to hear from me after so many years have passed. I often think of people in Hailey- bury and on every opportunity inquire about so and so. Mother has been very good in keeping me up to date, and if there is any special item in the Hailey- burian, she sends the copy to me. Just a few lines about myself. ! left Peru in 1953 after living in South America for nearly 15 years. My wife and I did enjoy it down there but decided it was time to settle down in our own country. I am working for a consulant geologist in Calgary. The West is a wonderful country but we often say that some day we will return to Ontario. Both mother and dad are very well. That North country still has a strong [pull on their heart strings and they have of- ten mentioned going back. I do hope you and your fam- ily are well. Please give my re- gards to any of my old friends. If you happen to see "Spud" and Johnny Valentine, please give them my regards. "Corky" McCracken 2223 Carleton St. Calgary. North Bay, Ont. Oct. 31, 1955 The Editor The Haileyburian Dear Sir: Just because Tri-Town Rai- ders folded this season is no reason why football should be considered dead and buried in this area. After all, it was the Tri- Towns which, along with North Bay, Sturgeon Falls, and Sud- ury, got football organized on an inter-city basis. A spokesman for the North- ern Ontario Rugby-Football Union has stated that "the leag- ue needs the Tri-Towns." However, the Raiders proba- bly will have to pay some sort of penalty for dropping out of the circuit and leaving the other teams in the lurch. This is only fair, since all teams were sup- pose to post a bond at the start of the 1955 season. (Only one, Sudbury, did so, however.) -- What's needed in the Tri- Town area is some _ unselfish executive spadework during the off season. Petty differences must be brushed aside and plans made for the proper organiza- tion and operation of a football team next season. The Tri- Towns showed on several oc- casions that they had the mak- ings of a good football club. They had more losses than wins, that's true, but most of the time they put up a stout battle. The NORFU hopes to see the Tri-Town Raiders back in the fold next season, and hopes that football men up that way will waste no time making plans along that line. Yours Truly Britt Jessup North Bay THE BIBLE TODAY The Bible speaks in the idiom of the people it addresses any- where in the world. An example of this is shown in a paraphrase of the 23rd. Psalm for the Nava- jo Indians. The great Father above a Shepherd Chief is, the same as I am he is, and with him I want not. He throws out to me a_ rope, and the name of the rope is love, and he draws me, and he draws me, and he draws me to where the grass is green and the water is not dangerous; and I eat and lie down satisfied. Sometimes my heart is very weak and falls down, but he lifts it up again and draws me into a good road, His Name is Wonderful. Sometime, it may be very soon, it may be longer, it may be a long, long time, he will draw me into a place between the mountains. It is dark there, but I'll not draw back. I'll be af- fraid not. for it is in there, be- tween those mountains that the Shepherd Chief will meet me, and the hunger I have felt in my heart all through this life will be satisfied. Sometimes he makes the love rope into a whip, but afterwards he gives me a staff to lean on. He spreads a table before me with all kinds of food. He puts his hands upon my head and all the "tired" is gone. My cup he fills till it runs over. What I tell you is true; I lie not. These roads that are "aw- ay ahead" will stay with me through this life, and afterwards I will go to live in the "Big Te- pee" and sit down with the Shepherd Chief forever.

A number of smaller children went on a trick or treat ex- pedition in the evening, but most of them had their fling at the Hallowe'en Party in: the school auditorium. The party was a real success and everyone, big or small, enjoyed themsélves. Ice cream, candies, and apples were generously handed out to the many children that attended, and for the older children who attended later in the evening, there was round and square dancing. But this afternoon. and ey- in organizing and handling of the distribution of prizes and packages of candies and fruit. To show your appreciation to them and the Rotary Club, the Hallowe'en party boxes will be left in the stores all this week, so donate generously to help us reach our goal in order to meet the expenses of this party.
