The Let Era and Express Thursday May 9 Common Isabel Colville Tuesday Wednesday thursday Days are strange things arent they They are measured out for us 12 hours into which we put much or 1 of ourselves ac cording to our nature or our en vironment There are certain things we do at certain times like work or eat ing and then we spread some pleasure here and there like but ter on our bread or filling in a cake These add a touch of gla mor to the commonplace And when we combine a sense of help ing in however small a way some cause it is an added pleasure On Tuesday afternoon last week in company with Mrs Roy Cody and Mrs Allan KBOMEY PILLS up in T A I Bears looking into for the whole family ONTARIO TRAVEL 738 Parliament Toronto Department of Travel Publicity Hon Bryan Cafhcart Cash

Phone TW Open fill pm Sot noon offkas oil principal Round Cody I went to the tea in aid of the Canadian Cancer Society held at the home of Mrs Harry Beer It was good to see so many pre sent for can you think of any more worthy cause than to fight the disease which has caused and Is continually causing such fright ful and wide spread suffering for it makes no distinction between youth and age wealth and pover ty worthy and unworthy I suppose there is not a worker in the research field of medicine who has not dreamed of conquer ing this scourge I hope I live to see that triumph It was pleasant to meet so many friends and especially to meet Mrs Rourke whom we have missed sadly She tells me they still have cats and speaking of cats we have three who are high ly individualistic One performs like a temperamental pianist on that instrument One is a scien tist who is u to solve the mystery of TV He stands on his hind legs and with his paw tries to follow the movement on the screen This is Popeye and Sam bo is the one who refuses to drink milk but sits by the tap till some one runs fresh water for him But to get back again to the tea It was a joy to see the centre of the tea table adorned with sweet peas They are so like spring it self They are like butterflies or delicate birds and they seem to whisper spring is here The tea was a delightful contribution to a worthy object Then on Wednesday evening we settled down with grunts of anticipation to see and hear Car men We were not prepared for the truth and freshness of the presentation Carmen looked the part and was the heartless co quette till love at last killed her in the person of a discarded lover Don Jose a part well sung al though I thought he fell a little short in some scenes the toreador was also good The choruses were excellent and the whole opera was splen didly put on in spite of the limit ed space imposed by TV I thought the English version of Carmen though gaining in intel ligibility lost a little in being se parate from its original tongue The greatest lack was the lack of color for which this opera is fa mous But let us hope the CBC keeps up the good work and brings us many more Our Canadian towns are not like those of Europe where near ly every town has its opera house and where even the children are as familiar with opera as ours are with hit tunes It is our loss but thanks to radio and TV it is being remedied On Thursday afternoon I atten ded the meeting at Trinity United church The meetings are always interesting but what I especially wanted to speak of was Caroline Ions talk on the weekly newspaper She stressed a thing which a good many people do not seem to realize the essential difference between a daily and a weekly paper In a daily paper it is civic national or international news which is es sential There must be headlines which will catch the eye and these are often the work of an ex port Then take the weekly paper It must cater to its subscribers and they arc people like you and me Besides world doings those of the community loom large In a city peoples interests are scattered all over the place in a town or vil lage they are centralized In other words we arc interested in one another and like to keep in touch with our neighbors Then WI News The annual meeting of the Newmarket branch with the el ection of officers took place on Thursday April The

matter of margarine in the following few lines and be tween them The only substan tia argument against margarine is the vested interest argument It is said that one out of every six Canadians is partially or wholly dependent on the dairy industry for a living The argu ment is a good reason for not taking any measure that would kill or cripple the industry sud denly From my pavement viewpoint I think that the above pattern is right on the target and that gain fully employed Canadians all along the front of the secondary manufacturing processing and service industries will be only conserving the general welfare by seeing to it that they do not use their superior power poli tically or economically to bite too deeply into the earning power of their rural brethren It is manifestly true to assert that as one of the financial writ ers expressed it the trend to ur- HOW BOUT THAT Bv RALPH TEE banization and is taking place in every industrial country around the earth On the other hand it is no less factual that as one of the wise men phrased it Nations break down upon the farm and when any nation weakens along the farm front it declines every where AH I feel like saying is that whether we like it or not we are going to be as dependent as ever upon the comparatively small ratio of our population down on the farm despite our yen for forgetting Mr and Mrs Farmer except in emergent times of thin harvests andor electoral battles as at the present minute In closing may I just say that while I was impressed by the above assertion that one out of every six Canadians is partially or wholly dependent on the dairy industry for a living the stub born fact remains that our lives depend upon the energies of 15 out of every Canadians who are at work in Canadian fields and barns and rural homes Student LAST TIME YOU BRING- ANYONE TO SEE ABOUT BUYING OUR HOUSE YOU TOWN BROKERS CARE WHO YOU THEY TEAR THINGS UP YOUD THINK OWNED THE PtACE I FIRST IN WE MORNING- WERE
