The present session of the Ontario Legislature has been a difficult one for the government. Debates have been long, and bitter. The opposition parties have done their homework, and cabinet ministers have been hard pressed to defend their departmental estimates. In Eleven of the day camps are operated to serve boys and girls between the ages of seven and twelve years. The camps are located across the borough in wooded regions with many acres available for exciting experiences in a natural environment well removed from housing and other mah-made developments. I.

By Donald McDonald. All this may be seen as a curtain-raiser to what may well be the most significant by-election in recent years. It is to be held' in the western Ontario riding of Middlesex South. Middlesex South at first glance seems safe enough for the government. It is next door to the Premier's own riding, and has traditionally been a rural Tory stronghold. But like much of Ontario, Middlesex South is changing. No longer is it solidly rural: forty percent of the population now lives in London suburbia. In the 1967 general election, the NDP won the suburban area. doctor with a leather wallet handicrafted by patient Eddie Syrup, who” work has won miles in Canadian National Exhibition competitions. To fill the wallet, a sum of money was presented to Dr. Wicks by W. Belshaw, Thomas Head, Assistant Administrator and F, D. Beauchamp, executive director National Sanitarium Association, on behalf of the staff. American Beauty roses and a casserole dish from the nurses were presented to Mrs. Wicks by Mrs. E. Eldridge, director of nurses and her assistant, Miss Margaret Scott. In that election, the government held the seat, but they dropped 4,000 votes in doing so. The second-place Liberals also dropped 800, and the NDP, though it ran last, improved its standing by an additional 3,200 votes. _ In many ways, Middlesex South is a microcosm of the whole province; the byelection will be a weather vane many will watch to determine how the political winds are blowing. Throughout the riding there is discontent with the government's swift moves toward regional government and county school boards. The heavy burden of new taxation these steps have brought in their wake has aroused a mood of protest. Farmers are concerned .about the continuing problem of low farm income, and are unhappy about continued divisions within their own organization. In the As so often happens, many people will take out their irritation on the government. So Mr. 'Robarts' administration, already vulnerable on a number of fronts, will have to fight hard to keep an anti-government swing in check. The fact that it will provide some of the answers to these questions accounts for the growing interest being shown in the upcoming Middlesex South byelection. Suburbs, high housing costs and soaring property taxes are a major worry'. ‘ Can he do it? Will the NDP maintain its forward momentum and squeak through? Are the Liberals fated forever to limp along in second place? Tea was arranged by Mrs. J. Smith, chief dietitian, her assistant, Miss E. Blaschok, Mrs. R. Ross and Miss Evelyn Wraight, Dietary supervisors. The charge nurses served the refreshments. Coutthard, retired assistant superintendent, Dr. D. R. Garrett, Dr. W. K. Kerr, Dr. H. Hammock, Dr. A. S.
