Taps on the brake pedal give warn- ing flashes to the cars behind. Coup- led with turn indicators and/or hand | signals they give unmistakable indi- [| cation of intention to slow down and turn off the highway. There is nothing in the law to re- quire a motorist to give this addi- tional warning. It is just a matter of common sense and self-protection. And it is also something else that is very important . . . it is a matter of courtesy. A driver should make his turn off ~a busy highway with all reasonable speed. A leisurely turn can back up the line of traffic unnecessarily. But firm braking at the last moment may invite a rear-end collision if the car behind has not noticed, or has not be- lieved the turn signal. That is why warning flashes of the stop light, op- erated by light taps on the brake pe- dal, ave always worth while when high speed traffic is following close behind. Such signals are public evidence of a man who is driving well. A driver who is thinking ahead, thinking be- hind and thinking to the side. A dri- ver who wants to keep out of trouble himself, and wants to help the man behind to do the same. ee 3X mn Good dyiving should not end at the edge of the lake.

A proper sense of caution. Courtesy -- especially towards swim- mers, and those in smaller boats. Helpfulness and tolerance towards all other water users (and even mis-us- ers!), and a due regard for the rights and comfort of those on shore who might be affected by noise, wash and jetsam. Great SKILL importance for small craft handlers. But it is important, nevertheless. Work at developing your skill--many people and organizations will be glad to assist. In addition, to being safer, it is much more satisfying to know you are doing exactly the right thing when you are directing horsepower-- whether it be car or outhoard.

For instance, always make a point of entering a boat in the pro- per manner: don't jump in, don't move around any more than is necessary. When you have to move, do it quickly and keep your weight as low as pos- sible in the boat. The important thing is to develop the correct habit by paying equal care to these points in all conditions. . Use the same cau- tion in moving in a boat in shallow water, ten feet from the shore, as you would a mile out in the lake in a high wind. Check to see all safety equipment is in good condition, how- ever short the trip. That way you build and strengthen the correct ha- bit. Remember that every exception weakens the habit. Every time you "don't bother this time" you weaken the habit that may one day protect you in an emergency. The fourth element of good boat handling, KNOWLEDGE, can be ac- quired in several ways. By instruc- tion, and observation. Through the hard--and often costly--school of ex- perience. Or by reading. In this last category a booklet that should be in the hands of every small boat owner, and every one who ever takes the controls of a power boat, is "Safe- ty Afloat". It may be obtained, with- out charge, by application to the De- partment of Transport, Ottawa. Opportunity for All "I am no reactionary who has had to be dragged into the twentieth century. I am as concerned as the next man to help the weak and the needy and those who, for reasons over which they have no control, can- not fend for themselves. Of course, such people should not be left in dif- ficulty; of course, as Canadians, they have a right to a decent standard of living. THE PORT PERRY STAR, THURSDAY, JULY 9th, 1959-5 "By the same token, it is no less proper that a man or woman who, over a reasonable period of time has contributed out of earnings to a na- tional unemployment insurance fund, shall be entitled to draw on it, again within reason, at such times as they may be genuinely seeking work but are unable to find it.

Frequent cutting or a short rota- tion of crops keeps this weed pretty well under control. "The rising militancy and NT, Effective control can be obtained siveness of the Canadian labour move- ment is reflected in a growing unwil- lingness of the unions to accept find- ings of conciliation boards and their tendency to strike for further gains and concessions. "The Canadian Labour Gazette re- ports that the number of man days lost through labour disputes in 1958 amounted to 2,879,120, which almost doubled the record for 1957. By far the larger majority of these days were lost in three major strikes, all of which followed refusal unions concerned to accept the award of a conciliation board or a special government board."
