We have a news release from the United Kingdom that outlines a ‘Diary of the Week‘ and gives the main acâ€" tivities throughout the land. In the fiveâ€"day period between October 12th and 17th we notice that the Duke of Edinburgh had duties to perform in Invernessâ€"Shire, Scotâ€" ~land, Eton Wick, Bucks, Chatham, Kent and two affairs in London. The jobs range from opening a hydro electric scheme to unveiling a war memorial and attending a navy reception. ovER THE > BACK FENCE Elwood‘s out and Buck‘s in . . . and for our dough Elwood‘s in the bucks too! The change in headmen at the Canex has brought down some criticism on the heads of the board of directors, undeserved criâ€" ticism, if we may venture an opinion. Mr. Hughes is retiring after fortyâ€"seven years as gnen\ manager and willâ€"continue for one year on his salary of $15,000 at the end of which time he will be pensioned at the rate‘of $7,500 per year. Not a bad arrangement, must admit we envy him very much. We imagine that some of his severest critics | are â€" just jealous. Bit of a ‘kuffuffle‘ (good word!) about the ban prohibiting Britishâ€" made automobiles in Canadian Motor Shows. In our mind, busiâ€" ness is business and because a group of twelve or so automobile companies got toâ€"gether and were smart enough to form the National Automobile Shows Inc., to display their cars they should have the right to exclude anyone who was not part of the formation. At a very substantial cost the N. A. S. Inc. erected the automotive building at the C. N. Exhibition and displays space in that buildâ€" ing is in ration to the amount of money invested by each of the forming companies.

Let‘s hope that the powersâ€"thatâ€"be don‘t decide to keep the surface chopped up as badly and as long as the stretch nearer Waston last spring. Things are under repair from Burgess corners to Maiton. Smoother roads will make for. more speed, more speed means more tickets issued by Maito® Police, more tickets means more revenue in Maiton treasury. ‘The Malton Police can really tab speeders with uncanny accuracy, they nailed us for going exactly thirtyâ€"six miles per hour. For many years the Times and Guide has been bettered (shall we say) by a column entitled Touring Notes. In it our columnist has given many reports of the cycling journeys he had made throughout the land. At other times he talks Of safety and of how important it is to obey the traffic laws. Last week we got him bicycling up Main Street WITHOUT A LIâ€" CENSE ON HIS BIKE.

In addition to the monies raised this year a certain amount was deposited to the general acâ€" count of the Red Cross.

Redecorating Is Now Completed Municipal Officesâ€"Council Room It seems that every time some money is tentatively laid aside by council to erect the proposed new municipal _ building, _ something comes along to warrant the spendâ€" ing of the money elsewhere. Counâ€" cil is of course anxious to keep within the budgets set. . No new building is seen in the immediate future but town emâ€" ployees at the town hall have a right to expect pleasant working conditions and as a result the municipal offices and council chamâ€" ber were redecorated last weekâ€" end. The brighteningâ€"up operation is most successful. Woodwork, walls, ceilings and floors have all been gone over. Work was accomplished while the staff was away over the Thanksgiving weekâ€"end. Miss D. Garbutt Presented With Life Membership To Auxiliary The Annie Kitching Evening Auxiliary heid a very successful and enjoyable October meeting at the home of Mrs. A,. Gardhouse. Some 45 members and friends gathered to spend the evening which included, a call to worship service, a presentation, some busiâ€" ness matters and an auction sale. The call to worship was conâ€" ducted by Miss Iris Aikens. The theme for the year is "The Means of Grace," with the Act theme being "God‘s Grace," which was likened to a clear stream bringing newer and abundant life. During the meditation Miss Aikens was assisted by Mrs. J, Cameron, Mrs. G. Cameron, Mrs. F. Prior, and Miss Reva Nattress in a prayer for the missionaries all over the world. Mrs. Hillard gave the scripture reading. Mrs. Kell had the pleasure of présenting a life membership pin and certificate to Miss D.
