Hilltop Herald HILLTOP HERALD NEWS 'As the final days of this term come to a close I shall give you a last look behind the doors of Port Perry High School. For the past few weeks the students have been busy with their studies so the activity of the school was rather slow; therfore I have not appeared in my usual column, Cadet Inspection was held on Fri. afternoon, May 28. Present at the inspection was Col. M, C. Finnely, the oficial Commissioner of the Ontario Regiment and Capt. J.

Karel Espie, Cadet Capt. Ian Beare and Cadet Captain Don Popert. Congratulations go to these students. The remarks of the Inspecting Officer were high in praise to the cadet corps for its deportment, steadiness and self-discipline. We trust that many of you parents were present to see the fine display the students performed. This year the Cadet Corps was hon- oured to go to the Seagrave United Church to worship with them on Sun- day 'morning. Also the Cadet Corps gained experience in marching down town last week. Last Friday evening the annual Cadet Dance was held in the audi- torium of the High School. This Friday, June 5 the senior stu- dents will attend a school picnic in their honour which will give them courage to face the exams the follow- jing week. And two weeks after that dear old Port Perry High will be closed for another year. I suspect there isn't a student alive who isn't, longing for glorious Sum- mer Holitlays! 'We're proud to see many of our ex- graduates back in town. At this time I would like to express my appreciation to you people who have read my column, and also to the students who have supported me, and especially to the principal Mr. Mac- Donald, who has so kindly helped me in many respects through my term as "Press Reporter".

Sept 30 has been selected as the day for the re- vote on two liquor questions declared invalid following a County Court hear- ing, April 28. The two questions which will be vot- ed on are as follows: Are the town residents in favour of the sale of liquor under a dining loun- ge licehse act for consumption with meals on licensed premises? Are they in favor of the sale of li- quor under a lounge license for con- sumption on licensed premises? These two questions were voted down in the last election, but a county. court hearing presided over by Judge J. E. N. Kennedy, declared the elec- tion invalid, R.M.T. Dymond at Uxbridge May 30, 1959: The Liberal leader has said we con- servatives have no platform; yet in the next breath he says we "stole 11 planks from his platform". He has little faith in his own platform, appar- ently, Our platform is clear and definite; it is to continue the pattern of the past ten years; steadily increasing help to the individual citizen of Ontario by lifting from him, the home-owner, the farmer, the small businessman as much of the load of municipal taxation "as possible. See the record of 19568 for Ontario Riding; the municipal tax levy was about $21¢ million; the Provincial grant was $1,967,000. That surely is not going to stop suddenly after June 11th; it has steadily increased over ten years, you can trust the Frost govern- ment, to continue in this way. He says the Conservatives did noth- ing for highways; yet we have the best highways in Canada. He is going to set up a Highway Authority and build highways faster without increasing your taxes. It costs about $1 million to build a mile of super highway like 401. He says he will pay the cost by pledging the credits of the Province. This is from the man who for 4 years has steadily criticized the Frost Gov- ernment for: 1. Too much government by autthority or commission, and, 2. for increasing the Provincial debt. too much. In other words, if the conservatives do it it's wrong; if the liberals do it it's good. This is the entire program of the liberal opposition, so shot through with contradictions and inconsistencies that the people of Ontario are going to think long and well before entrust- ing their business to a party led by such thinking or lack of thinking. On the local level, my liberal oppon- ent has sought to inject the personal into his campaign. Like his party he is so bankrupt of political philosophy and ideas that he has to deal in per- sonalities. I have never campaigned on personalities and I won't begin now; but I will say to my opponent that if he wishes a fight this clection on issues of personal integrity and personal morality I am prepared to put the record of my conduct before the jury of my people for their judg- ment: will he do the same? He has imputed improper or un- ethical conduct to me in the choice of my campaign manager. If this is so, then let him make a specific charge; this is only his duty to you the people he seeks to represent. If he knows of wrong-doing on my part, you ought to be told of it. He has said that I have not used the facilities of the riding? What facilities? Again he "beats about the bush"; let him call a "Spade a Spade". He tells you I have not represented you well. I have heen in Canada some thirty years. In thut Extracts from Speech by Hon. Dr. Dymond at Uxbridge, May 30th Extracts from Speech by Hon. Dr. time I have got an education and established myself in medical practice it is true, but I have served the coun- try of my adoption for over 3 years in the 2nd world war, overseas; I serv- ed my local council for some five years, and the School Board for almost three years, and now I have served this rid- ing for four years as your member, 2 of these have been service to all Ont- ario. Again 1 will say I will put my record of public service before the jury of the people, lay it along-side his re- cord and leave you to judge. I think I know what the verdict will be. DR. M. B. DYMOND He says I have done nothing -about Highway TA. He forgets that I be- gan agitating to have 7A rebuilt' ten years ago, years ago before [ had any thought of being clected. Where was his 'voice then? What was he doing ? I could tell you. He forget that it was his party took over 7A in 1934 and did not as much as put a load of gravel on it. They talked about it; the conser- vatives are doing it; thé contracts are called now. building will begin this year. That is the record all along the way; the Liberals talk about it: the Conservatives do it. He says I have done nothing to improve Lake Scugog even thought we have a Conservative. member at Ottawa. This is Federal business; he apparently does know where Provincial authority extends; but he forgets we had a Liberal gov- ernment at Ottawa for 22 years; what did they do for Lake Scugog? Let No my friends, I do not believe you, the thinking people of Ontario Riding are going to change sound, constructive representation as I have tried to give you for a Will-o'- the Wisp', grub-bag of political tricks; being your member calls for the abil- ity to see your needs in the light of him answer that. the needs of all Ontario, and then hav- ing the ability to go ahead to work for your interests. That I believe I have done; that I promise you I will continue. I have built a reputation for "getting things done" for the peo- ple, that record stands for all to see and read. I do not intend to throw away my reputation or to treat your business lightly or in any careless fashion. Obituary MRS. THOS.
