In the early 1940's tuition cost about one-half of what . it does to-day ; books and equipment about one-third; and, board also about one-third. Parents who plan to have daughters go to university can assume that four years in a higher learning is going to take about' $7,000 to $7,600 for each aspirant to a degree. Of if the parents are fortunate enough to live in a university town, the cost will, in direct' expenditure be some- thing less by the amount of the board.

AA poll of the storekeepers found 18 merchants anxious to close with supper hour through the week, but stay open until 8.30 pm. on Friday and close on Saturdays at 10 p.m. For too long, the shoppers' habit of €oming to town at 10 o'clock at night has nettled the store-keepers, who are mostly open for business' from 8.00 or 8.30 in the mornings. | The questionaire from the buginess- men found them in agreement on the Friday and Saturday opening hours for September to May, with summer hours being left in a store's summer 1600 to 2260 to the Aurora Banner. rush habits, v ABOUT 600 ENTRIES IN STOUFFVILLE 'FLOWER SHOW.

Living Cost Index Risesin July = OTTAWA--The consumer price in- dex, a barometer of living costs, rose by three-tenths of a point during July to 116.7 from 115.4, the bureau of statistics reported recently. It was the third consecutive mon- thly jump, powered by price boosts mainly in items other than food. Price increases were shown for men's clothing, rent, fuel oil, gasoline, hos- pital rates and knitting yarn. Within the food group a substan- tial drop in the: price of vegetables, coupled with decreases for fresh fruits and. beef, was over balanced by increases for bread, coffee, eggs, pork products and lamb. :The index, based on 1949 prices equalling 100, reached a peak of 118.2 in' December, 1951.

' . t CANADA NEEDS MORE PRODUCER-CONSUMERS The phenomenal post-war develop- ment of Canada is real and as solid as our utilization of natural resources permits, but it is much too light for heavy going in rough seas. : This country needs immediately twice as many producer-consumers as we have now. As it is, we are un- able to develop our natural resources and to produce food, goods and serv- ices at costs low cnough to sustain a strong economy in a world econo- mic reaction. | : Our first and greatest need is to double our home market to make pos- sible optimum 'effici¢ncy in the mass production of the cssentials of life. With thirty-million people Canada could do its fair share in maintain- 1ing defences against aggrestion by '| manning all of the defences on our own soil and by contributing to what- ever common defence may be neces- sary. : Eye Today we are concerned about the menace of Russia which, when it-is contained, will be succeeded by new or resurgent menaces. Only enough préducer - consumers and defenders ean provide "a firm basis for Canadian development and security. ---Lindsay Post. * * * BICYCLISTS LAUGH AT THE LAW-- .- Many motorists have been wonder- ing what rules and regulations bicy- cles come under when using the high- ways and the sidewalks. . Many mo- torists have been. "seared to death" who weave and waddle and fail to observe the mommon rules-of safety. Bicyclists are practically laughing at the law in face of the fact that high- way traffic rules which apply to mo- torists also apply to bicyele riders. Facts are, that there is also a spe- cial traffic by-law for bicyclists in Lindsay. Bicycle riders are supposed to signal for a left and a right hand turn, for a stop and are supposed to stop at stop streets and at the red light. Incidentally pedestrians are also, by law, supposed to stop at the red light. Bicyclists cannot, according to the local by-law, ride on sidewalks, but they do. to side step lively to avoid being knocked down by bicycles on the walks. : "If all motorists, all bicyclists and all pedestrians traffic rules and -regulations there would be fewer accidents. If bicy- clists laugh at the law, perhaps it would be a good thing for the police to pick up some of the offenders in order to teach all and sundry that by-laws are, made to be observed. 2 Watchman-Warder.
