James of Bowmanville Statesman is in Van- couver attending the convention of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers | Association, of which he is president, his paper's editorials are being sup- | plied by the Town Council, the Lions Club and Rotary Club. This week the Council spoke and used the space, as might be expected, to address electors in particular. One article told of 'the duties of elected and appointed officials of a municipal- ity.,". Another explained why it was considered inadvisable to re-appoint a public health nurse and meet the wishes of the High School Board for an addition to the building. The need for economy entered into both de. cisions, The leading editorial was a ringing call to citizens to take a deeper and more intelligent interest in public af- fairs. It painted a soméwhat gloomy pictpre of "poverty in the midst of plenty", using some figures which un- fortunately, could stand correction, but contained wise and necessary ad- vice nevertheless. Canada has her particular job to do, we have a vote in Canada, and no other place.

Demo- cratic government is enjoyed by Can- adians in their Dominion, Provincial and Municipal Governments. The great weakness of this system is the growing apathy and indifference of the public to their own problems--a tendency to "Let George do it." The opportunity to let the Council say this alone justified the decision to turn the editorial page over to the elected, admirable as the idea was all around. Too much emphasis cannot be placed on the necessity for retain- ing democratic "Fo¥eriiment through public interest. There is a growing impression that apathy is letting de- mocracy down, permitting government by minorities which are too liable to have a minority point of view. It is not a great step from minority rule to autocracy. Public opinion at large is still sound, and will remain so if adequate educational standards are maintained and interest in affairs is active. That "the people get the kind of government they deserve" is true. They get the kind they demand, either by intelligent participation or indiffer- ence. Conscientious members of a public body appreciate this, and in Bowmanville they have done well to point it out. MYRTLE Strayed to lot 21, concession 8, a dog.

"Although highways and waterways play" important parts in moving to market Canada's agricultural produc- tion, the burden of handling - this enormous traffic falls largely on the railways", says an article in the cur- rent issue of the Canadian National Magazine.
