This new time is necessary due to.the fact«that, repeated requests on our part, for All correspondents and advertisers to have their copy in early have failed. We, the staff of the Times and Guide, do our utmost to satisfy all concerned, but we find it almost impossible to do so unless we have the proper time. Articles or ads submitted at 11.00 Tuesday morning do not get our fullest attention because we Beginning with the next issue of the Times and Guide, the regular deadline for all news items and display advertising will be changed from Tuesday at 11.00 a.m. to Monday night at 5.00 p.m. This will apply for every issue from now on unless a statutory holiday necesâ€" sitates a change. Classified advertising only will be accepted until 10.00 a.m. Tuesday mornings. are short of time, and in many cases such items are left out of the edition, We cannot edit and rewrite (if necessary) an article that is handed in at the last minute, and for the same reason we cannot give promised space to articles which are worthy of a prominent spot. We find that despite constant reminders that copy must be in this office as early as possible, news items telling of an event two or three days previous are still left until Tuesday morning. We feel that this is not necessary, and from now on, all such articles will be refused here. The only news items that will be accepted on Tuesday mornings are those concerning events or happenings of the night before. We are confident that when our correspondents and advertisers realize that our paper has to be ready for printing by noon Tuesday, they will understand our reasons for the new time. We are somewhat handicapped due to the fact that this paper is printed outside of Weston, and at present there is no indication that this procedure will be altered. It is our aim to give complete coverage of all local events and happenings, and it is also our aim to give each item our personal attention. If you, our readers and correspondents, will coâ€"operate with us, and help us to overcome this problem, we can promise that you will be more satisfied with the way in which your news or ads appear in the paper. _ We can do an excellent job for you if we have the time â€" those extra few hours will mean the difference between satisfaction and complaints. The Weston Lions Club has done a wonderful work for Weston and it is contgnuing its good work. The ether day, the writer took a stroll down to the Recreation Centre and it was a revelation to see what has been done and what is being done to this huge Weston playground.

A weekly newnp.fir is a business organization, providing a public service, for a profit. at is our own definition of a weekly.

After careâ€" ful consideration and examination and personal interviews, it is our opinion that the Drew Government during its five years of office has achieved an ‘outstanding record and given to the people of Ontario a progressive, sound legislation. . â€" One of the chief items of their policy that did concern us, was the liquor plan,. Sales of liquor by the glass, aâ€"new‘ innovation, did seem to be creating more outlets for the consumption of liquor. Aftér exâ€" amination of the whole history of the temperance movement, knowing the attitude of the various governments on the question, having seen the temperance leaders go down to defeat by the popular vote over a period of the last fifty years, having been personally interested and observant of the results of control, prohibition and enforcement of legislation, we are of the firm opinion that the policy of the present government is a conscientious, sound piece of legislation to meet the situation. We find that they have made mdst exhaustive investigations and are detem;ineot to enforce the new legislation put on the statute book and to control effectively the sale of liquor. No two men have given more thought and consideration to the implementing of practical and realistic liquor laws than Premier Drew and Attorneyâ€"General Blackwell. On liquor its control and sale, Premier Drew has this to say: "One of the most difficult problems with which governments tare called upon to deal is the control of liquor and the licensing of sale No -government has ever found the final answer to this extremely difficult question . . . True temperance is the result we all should seek ... "Laws alone will never produce the ideal condition . . . Fundamentâ€" ally this is a problem of personal conduct based upon training, eduâ€" cation and self discipline . . . It is the duty of governments to pass sensible and workable laws designed to regulate and control the time and place and sale as well as the time, place and condition of conâ€" sumption . . . It is the duty of everyone to maintain proper standâ€" ards of personal conduct . . . "The system is not perfect . . . We have never claimed that it was . . . We do claim, however, that it is a tremendous improvement over conditions which existed when we took office, and with the coâ€"operaâ€" tion of all who are interested in this difficult problem, our system of controlling and licensing the sale of alcoholic beverages can be conâ€" stantly improved . . ." A Record of Achievement Never before in the history of Ontario has any government at the end of five years in office, been able to say that everything was paid for and that the net debt had been reduced. Every foot of highway constructed; every building erected; every hospital grant; every grant for rural Hydroâ€"Electric extension was completely paid for. In addiâ€" tion, your government paid from the debt of Ontario the HUGE SUM of $27,357,470. As you delve further into the personal activities of the various cabinet ministers, we are convinced they have met the various problems. Labor legislation has been effective. Social problems have been faced with a reality to meet the demands. One of these social problems has been housing, and the government has made plans that will give a measure of relief. The preservation of raw materials and their deâ€" velopment locally as far as possible means increased production and returns for the people of g_rltario. The educational advances and’plans Nok Msm on n on eani ce en en oc oen ts cé'rt'dnly will produce a fine éitizenship. The gigantic plans for Hydro development and the change over to 60â€"cycle is one of the greatest works ever undertaken by any government. These are only some of the factors why we are supporting the Drew Government candidates. Compare these achievements and the proposals of the Drew Governâ€" ment with the offerings of the Liberal Party, CCF Party or Comâ€" munistic Party. platforms. It is up to the people to register their conviction after a sane, sound analysis of the situation. We publicly make this announcement because some people have been questioning why we should support the Drew Government. * The old and historic St. Philip‘s Church will on Sunday next, June 6th, celebrate its 120th year of service to the district of Weston with special services both morning and evening. » Rev.

New Minister Welcomed To Harding Church ~ The congregation of Harding Avenue United Church, recently welcomed a new minister, Mr, W. N.

Mr. Hincks is a graduate in arts of the University of Toronto and has been studying theology at Emmanuel College, Toronto. fi‘g is the son of Dr. C. N. Hincks, the most outstanding psychiatrist in Canada, who is general director of the national committee on mental hygiene. Last summer he served as a student minister on the Sucâ€" cess charge, and under his vigorâ€" ous ]eadershig the church and comâ€" munity at Success, Orillia and Whitehall prospered greatly. â€" Although he had the chance of a medical career, Mr. Hincks chose the less lucrative, but to him, more satisfying work of the ministry. His studies were interrupted by a lengthy army career, during which he attained the rank of Captain. He served with the Canadian Ordnance Corps, later becoming staff officer with Canadian Miliâ€" tary headquarters in England. At the close of hostilities he was with the 5th Canadian Division in Europe, when he had the privilege of attending the Belsen trials in Germany. While in Holland he received authority from his genâ€" eral to conduct a series of discusâ€" sion forums, to promote better unâ€" derstanding between the Canadian troops and the Dutch population. These forums caufht on, and were effective in dispelling many of the misunderstandings that ha({ariae.n.

Progress is Byâ€"Wor As Community Cour Marks 2ndAnnivers Although the Community Council was actually formed some months prior to the hiring of a recreation director, the annivesary celebration dates from the time Gordon Alcott was selected from lmons] thirty applicants _ to become eston‘s director. During its«first year of operation the council overcame many handicaps, and what was then thought to be a full program both from the sports angle am{ from the educational viewpoint was organized. During this, its second year, however, Mr. Alcott and the executive of the Community Counâ€" cil have proved that an even more complete program could be formed, and now provide social entertainâ€" ment for tvefione from the ages of 6 to 60 and over. Their most recent effort was the formation of the Over 60 Club, which came into being through the work of the Junior Community Council. Anyone travelling around Weston on a Saturday might well be surprised at the youth activity taking place on the playing areas.
