of Esquesing Jim Snow served ville Milton Georgetown and a large part of Now Acton Milton Georgetown and are included In one new riding HaltonBurlington Oakville will be in a riding by itself Burlington South will have its northern boundary at the Queen Elizabeth Highway George Kerr wilt no doubt now seek reelection in his home town of Burlington Many had thought Jim Snow might choose to run here In the north For one thing he had stated he felt a candidate should live in the riding he represents Mr Snow lives In Halton Hills However he has announced he will run in Oak ville where he owns a business He explained to this paper thot about per cent of the people he repre sented before are In the new riding Now the big question iB who wilt commit himself or herself to an nouncing candidacy up here Recreation spreads out Some of the members of the new recreation advisory committee expressed discouragement at their last meeting One or two of them wondered if they were really doing any good The recreation assured them he needed their ad vice and direction since he is so new here But a new facet of recreation Is emerging from their meetings recently Its the increasing interest in recreation in the town ship Pam Sheldon in particular has pointed out the need for recrea tion at Speyside school and there was a good response at the public meeting called there Volunteers can be organized through the recreation department to make a program that will run smoothly Playground sessions will be held there and at Ballinafad for the first time this summer With the population of the town ship increasing steadily this is the place to look for more ball dia monds and tennis courts and classes And the recreation advisory committee can help it happen Yes it was mild

boy This isnt like you I admonish me I am not normally a gloom- not but neither do 1 go around grinning like idiot My wife early In our ac quaintance nicknamed me My average expression could probably be described as saturnine Thais why I was a little alarmed to find myself breaking Into broad smiles this week When I actually found myself being jolly with the boss I knew it was lime to stop ind pull myself together 100k Hill I said to myself you have not been drinking you are not senile nobody has left you large sum of money Pull yourself together Why are you going around all inside like

My wife practically every thing else tied up but the kid is getting rubber waders and fishing rod my golf clubs my 25 shares of mining stocks and the beautiful thai his great grandfather on his fathers side fashioned with his own hands Thats all I own but it should set him up well for life And that may be only a start We took him to see his other great grandad on the weekend touching meeting their first There was a little more than eighty years between them but they were close buddies from the start Great Grandad was waiting arms open Great stuck out his arms Great Grandads eyes got all red around the edges grinned It was as simple as that For the rest of the weekend there really w any body else around of much account There was only one cock of the walk all 11 months of him This despite or because of he fact that Great Grandbabby had no less than the following heeding his every wisn one great great aunt two great aunts two great uncles one gran one grandad one mother and four assorted cousins young enough to be his brothers and sisters Talk about a spoiled rotten kid To my mind Ibis is the way a baby should be brought up amidst a veritable horde of people who love him because he is a beautiful baby and love him even more because he is heirs w ith all that fine blood in him This happens among a few primitive tribes but has almost vanished from our vaunted western society where even grannies and grandads let along the greats arc neatly tucked away into nursing homes where they are lucky to get a perfunctory visit once a month from their own children let alone ever have a chance to cuddle and kiss the tiny ones who bear their blood and bones and spirit No child in this world has ever been spoiled a surfeit of love And who has mure time and love to give than the grands and the greats At any rale as I old my daughter she had come in from pacing off her grandfathers land That boy obviously knows which side his bread is buttered on You have trained him well He has me hooked He has- his great grandfather hooked If he plays his cards right he might ind up as a member of the landed gentry as well as Ihe owner of a 15-year- old pair of hip waders Ottawa
