Page 4 The Haileyburian Across the Kitchen Table By MRS. MAC Once again, I have read and en- joyed, W. B. T. Smiley's column in the Bracebridge Gazette. This time he is giving the beauty of Canada and particularly Ontario, a pat on the back. He has a most descriptive pen, tipped at times, with golden sunshine and, at other times, with thunder and lighten- ing, with a bit of wind thrown in for good measure. Here are a few of his observations from last week's Gazette; "It is no wonder that Canadians carry on a deep, lingering, tongue-tied love affair News from the Evelyn Shoppe So, they've hit the moon? So, they've come out with '60 cars? 80? You haven't seen anything yet, until you discover "Kayonara,"' a subtle new nylon tissue tricot, by Luxite-Kayser. Lustrous shadings and intricacies of texture that de- fies you to guess how they've come about, they are truly exciting. In gowns, pyjamas, slips, panties, Half slips and the new "pettico- panty." 'In "amber gold," Luxite-Kay- ser's "'gold strike" that's so fash- ion right, ivory rose, the versatile neutral with pink undercast, blue frost, a delectable blue, red spice, will not disappoint you, an excit- ing color, midnight, a tone of so- phistication, and cinnamon, as flavorful as it's name. | The ""Vocama,"' by Madame Sar- ette, in housecoats and lounging pyjamas, printed or plain, in a siieded dull texture.

They do, believe me, they do, though you'd never know it by 'casual observa- tion" "Along the beach, golden girls walked and brown urchins swam, and fat ladies slumped in deck chairs and cars poked around and dogs ran and people waved and water lapped and motors roared.' '"'We lounged and munch- ed and sipped all evening at the cottage, and like good Canadians, we accepted the splendor of the evening with decent restraint, al- though, at the urging of one or two more flamboyant members of the group, we did admit that it sure was a swell night, before we gath- ered our kids and went home." "Maybe we all had too much Bliss Carman, William Wilfred Camp- bell and Archibald Lampman, as school children. Maybe we are just undemonstrative. But surely there is no nation on the face of the earth that loves its country so much and sings about it so little. That's why I am going to sing out once in a while, however cracked the voice or corny the tufe or bored the audience. Maybe I can incite enough people to form a quartette. Well, I'm one who would be glad to join the quartette, in one of the "corny and cracked" voices, for Canada is a beautiful country and I do appreciate it even after my trip to so many other beautiful countries. Canada's beauty is par- ticularly her own, especially in beauty of the snow, (no remarks from the nickel seats about the snow, please, it is beautiful,) and the thousands and thousands of lakes, large and small, that glisten and glimmer under sunshine or moonlight. Yes, I love Canada and Scotland is the only other country I'd want to live in. (We-e-ell, may- be Ireland or Wales.) Judging by the frightful faces in many of the store windows, Hal- lowe'en is almost upon us and the tiny ghosts and goblins, tramps and pickininnies will be knocking at our doors. I like to have the little ones come because I do think it is their special night and privil- ege, but I get rather provoked when twelve and sixteen year olds march in, carrying a pillow case to carry home their loot. U. S. Citation In April 1951 the 2nd Battalion of the Princess Pats Canadian Light Infantry earned the honor of being the first Canadian unit ever to receive a citation from a president of the United States. The famed Princess Pats distin- guished themselves in combat du- ring the United Nations advance into North Korea that month, In had undertaken recruitment of a special force to take part in ithe Korean war and the Princess Pais were the first Canadian regiment to land in Korea. By the time of the truce in July 1953, 22,000 members of the Canadian Army had taken part in Korean Oper- ations. rin the accidents. Mrs. M. Pritchard was installed as the president of the Haileybury Home and School association at the first meeting of the season, held Tuesday evening in the school auditorium. Other officers include J. Watson, first vice-president, Mrs. K. Sroka, second vice-presi- dent; Mrs. H. Macdonald, secre- tary, and Mrs. E. N. Fitzgerald as treasurer. Mayor A. H. Cooke had charge of the ceremony of instal- lation. The incoming president, Mrs. Margarite -Pritchard, opened the business meeting with a quotation by ithe founder of Home and School in Canada, Mrs. Ada Courtice. . . "The common purpose of Home and School Associations is to deal intelligently with the childhood of the nation, to discover the causes of inability and delinquency and to remove outstanding handicaps by creating contructional oppor- tunities for health and happiness in the home, in the school, in the church and in the community." The Retiring President, Mrs. Camplgell then read the Home and School Creed. During the business meeting, the members decided to adopt the banner system of attendance and arranged to hold a money raising event in January. Four standing committees were inaugurated as follows, Music and Art, Social and Hospitality, Publicity and Publica- tions and Children's Reading. Mr. Blackwell, the Public School Principal announced the holding of a report .card session at the school on November 26th, when parents would be able to interview teachers and discuss the report ecards. He asked for volunteers from the Association to act as "Grade Parents' and assist the teachers in setting up the inter- views. Following a discussion, it was decided to send a letter to the town council, asking them to pass a by-law prohibiting the sale of fireworks to persons under 18 years of age. The guest speaker for the even- ing was Constable Chivers of the Ontario Provincial Police who spoke on "Traffic Safety'. He spoke -movingly, and with great feeling about the problems of traf- fic safety and children. In the past eight months 133 children were killed on the highways, 82 on foot, 20 on bicycles and the remainder in motor accidents. Four children were injured in Haileybury in the first eight months of this year. They ranged in age from three to eight years. One of these children was riding a bicycle. After thor- ough investigation by the OPP, in not one case could charges be laid against the drivers concerned Constable Chiv- ers then proceeded ito describe 'these accidents in detail so that members could appreciate the causes. Since 1939, vehicular traf- fic has increased 300 per cent and there are now over two million ve- hicles in Ontario alone. Every day we expose four hund- red children to traffic on roads QW" ST.

Constable Chivers said that there has not been one child killed in Ontario while using the safety patrol, since its inception. He felt that we should have a special drive in our homes and _ school- rooms to keep our children safe. We should think safety, talk safe- ty and PRACTICE SAFETY at all times. : Following Constable Chivers talk, there was a period of ques- tion and answer and the questions flew thick and fast as members How Cold is Canada? Canada's winter season is really cold. Except for a belt along the Pacific Coast, mean temperatures in January are all below the freez. ing point and in most of the country average below zero, Dur. ing the coldest spell each winter temperatures of below 40 degre eR below zero are common in most'| Canada north of 50 degrees Ja} tude, except in the Pacific anf Atlantic coastal regions.
