THURSDAY, SEPT. 24th, 1942 PAGE THREE THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO 0F Interest to KYE'IS HOLUh1f RAGWEED As many people are aware, hay ever is caused to a great extent by ragweed. One would expect this ta be a signal for this weed to disappear from the landscape of Ontario. On the contrary, however, certain people have so littie sympathy for hay fever suf- ferers, that large patches of rag- weed are ta be found in the boulevards of Bowmanvjlle. This carelessness causes untold misery to those who are afflicted with hay fever. Surely those who are guilty of allowing ragweed ta graw on their property are mere- ly careless. If anyone does not recognize the weed itself, a glance at any of the botanical books con- tained in the public library wil! show excellent pictures of it. If the worst cornes to the worst, just ask one of those sniffling, sneezing hay ever sufferers found in such numbers hereabouts and no doubt will be left in your mind concenning the appearanco af this unpleasant invention af nature. Anyhow, why not eradicate any ragweed growing on your prop- erty and banish it from the face of the earth? You will be doing a great service ta countless hund- reds of yaur fellow citizens. Sa, no more ragweed! RED CROSS With the fall seasan getti.ng underway, all the countless ac- tivities that were suspended for the summen will again be gaing full swing. Among the activities in which everyone will be partic- ipating (we hope) is the Red Cross. Notbing cauld be more worthy af your attention and no matter what war work you are doing, if you have one free aiter- naon, the Red Cross deserves that free afiernoon. The Dieppe cas- ualty lisis wbich have been fill- ing the papers lately make it ap- parent that Red Cross supplies will be mare needed than ever. This coming winter, WORK and GIVE ta the Red Cross. -K- GOOD-BYE At this point we have the un- pleasant duty of writing the lasi Kaye's Kolumn. The summer months and the wark at The Statesman office have heen veny pleasant, and association witb bath the members af The States- man staff and with aur readers bas been equally pleasant. The former bas been ca-aperative and friendly ta a new-comer. As for aur readers who can laud taa highly their kindly praise and their lang-suffering tolerance ai mistakes and inexperience. A weekly paper is such that the relatianship between readers and news staff is a persanal, friendly one, not ta be found on a metro- politan paper. The experience this summer as part of such an organizatian bas been highly en- joyable. Words are weak tools with which ta say good-bye ta what is more a family of readers than a mere subscriptian lisi but it is unfortunately only taa nec- essary. By the time this is print- ed, the writer shaîl no longer be amang you. I should like ta emerge fromn the editorial WE long enough ta say good-bye and good fuck in the coming yean, ta ail of those who read Kaye's Kolumn. -K- AND GOOD LUCK, KAVE! Editor's Note - Speaking for the editor and the office staff, we say good-bye for naw, Kaye, and goad luck ta you as you resumne yaur studies ai Queen's Univers- ity at Kingston. We're going ta miss your cheery vaice and charming personality. Through TOWN~1- BOWMANV ,y 0ESD'y SEPT. 30th OUS at 2.30 and 8.00 Moving fil Vau\eý.
