4 The Canadian Stategyan, Bowmanvile, Oet. 20, 10U EDITORIAL COMMENT Another Day of Decision Tomorrow, October 21st, Bowman- Ville's aduit population will again vote on two questions involving the sale of liquor with meais in dining rooms and in cocktail lounges here. This com- munity voted on the same questions tbree years ago and in that plebiscite those in favor outnumbered those against, by a considerable margin, but not enough ta meet the 60r' require- ment ta bring about the change. This vote will be interesting in that it will give an indication how the new, young vote rs, who have came of age in the past three years, feel about this particular subject. It will also show if the "Yes" committee xvere wise in leaving off the ballot the questions con- cerning beverage rooms. They may have alienated support fram those who patronize beverage rooms and ordin- arily would bave v<ted for the exten- sion of liquor outlets. Only time will tell. The campaign bhas bcen compara- tively quiet, conducted on quite a high level by bath sides. Bath sides have appealed more ta reason and logic than ta emation, reaiizing no doubt that the arguments that hold good for and against liquor a fcw ycars ago, no longer have aniy iarticular impact or appeal on the electorate. We respect the convictions oif thase \Vho wrotc letters ta the editor, hacking up their arguments witFî scriptural quotations, but frankly, anid regrettably we doubt very much if maniy of ihose under 50 years of age were swaYed by those Jet- ters written with intense sinceritv. We find aourselves in a difficuit editoriai position. We are too young ta recail the frcc-,w&liceiing days of the open bars although we can recal maniy stories about them handed down from genirration ta generation. We xvcre brought up under prohibition and have watchcd its rigid, unworkable regula- tions bpiniîg whittlecl axay littie by littie. During the \var we lived in count- tries such as Enigland, France, Ger- rnany and Itaiy where alcoholic bever- ages were almost as common place as soft drinks and most of the local popu- lation treated them xith respect and restraint. Only the yaung Canadian servicemen made fouIs of themselVes, havîng bad little or nu experience at bomne with alcohol. To them, over-in- dulging was a great thrill, and even the hangovers were a ncw experience. The situation as we see it Is that restrictions concerning the use and sale of alcoholic beverages are gradually being lifted by provincial governments rigbt across Canada when the depart- ments concerned feel the public is ready and able ta handle freer use without going overboard. This trend, under contrais, will continue until eventually regulations will be the same for al] communities. There have been cocktail bars and liquor with meals in dining rooms in the cities for quite a number of years. Now, even aur neigh- boring Oshawa ta the west is numbered among those that have these facilities. It is understood that recently in Oshawa at least three motels, servicing the same type of trade as The Flying Dutchman here, have been grantcd dining room and lounge licences. This, in effect, places the local motel in a non campe- titive position, a highly undesirable and dangerous position for any business ta be in. We don't for a moment criticize the Dutchman management for openly taking the lead in tryîng ta gain sup- port for set-vices it must have ta remain in business and take care of its custom- ers as they expect and demand. Whcther we like it or nat, alcahl is here ta stay and the soonter we learn ta live with it under contrai the hetter. While we agrce that life for many would be far hetter if heer, xine, aie, liquor and even hard cider had neyer came into existence, il is here and will neyer again he stamped out. They triedf that and it didn't work. People quite abviously are goîng ta drink, if thev have ta make their own, s0 it is up ta us ta provide education, example and rigici contrais. until aur citizens have became sufficiently civilized ta realize it is far mare harmful and dangerous ta make gluttons of themselves over alcohol than aver food. These are our thoughts far what thev arc worth. There are same who wili agi-ce with us and those who dis- agree, but we feel justified in expres- sing an opinion on this subject, be it right or wrong. As for voting tomairaow, we shall nat presumne la make Up your minds for you. This is your own persanal decision. Ail we suggest is that you make an effort ta get ta the poilis and vote according ta your convictions. That is yaur priviiege and duty as citizens of a democracy. Stay Home If You Don't Know How to Vote That fatuous slogan "Vote as you please, but vote", wbich suggests it doesn't matter how yau vote as long as you (4on't appear ahhetic, leaves us unirîpressed. If you can't be intel- ligent about it, wby go and caîxcel out the vote of someone who bas studied the issues, assessed the candidates and brought bis brains ta the ballot box? We are forever being warned by well-meaning people that if we neglect our priviieges ah the polling-booths we may lose them. Well, there arc people in thîs western hemisphere wha once had free ciechiens who have lost the privîlege. 1h wasn't because thcy stayed away, it was hecause thev were bribed into voting for the wrong men. Demacracv i sn't dependent upon vast numbers of 1ersi)is using the bal- lot boxes; it is depenident upan repre- sentatives heiîîg elected te parliament by informed aiîd respuuîsible persans - the more the better - who know whomn and what thcy are vating for, and wby. Hitler didn't risc ta power because voters were apathetic. He got there because great numbers of unin- formed, misled, excihed people vohec[» unwisely. Canada cauld be in trouble with its multi-party system and regional and provincial pressures and intereshs, and parties making promises they know will nleyer have ta keep. This country necds good government and gaod opposition. We are not likely ta get it if we con- tinue ta harangue the uninformcd ho get aut and do their duty by vating far hockey players, xrestling champ- ions, arators, pretty-faced paiiticians, Bible-quoters, or men with depression- complexes and big promises. Hereticai though it mav secm, we prefer a slogan of aur own, "Vote or not, as yau please, but if you do, picase vahe intelligentiy." -United Church Observer Tax Reform As the campaigm warmns up and the election speeches groxv sbriller, it is pleasant ta find bath lime Liberals and Conservatîves agi-ced an ance aspect of taxation reform. Joba Diefenbaker, the Conservative leader, bas suggeshed that taxes paid ta municipalities for services and schools (ini ather xvards, praperty taxes) should be deductible from the taxable income upon xvhicb incame tax 15 caiculated. He would place a $500 ceiling on the deductible amounit, sa ensuring that the iess weaithy praperty owners Nvould he the mies ta benefit most. \iearivhile Liheral adx'crtising in PeherýberotugIihi s stressed that a Liberal Goveruimcit xvould nat oîly reduce incorfl tax ini the future, but also permit ionicownier hropertv taxes ta be allowed as a deduction on incame tax. This î-ef<wm bas becri advacated for some time by the Canadian Federa- tion of Mayors and Municipalities and aiso by this newspaper. The abject of this proposai is ho relieve the praperty- owner, who now bears a heavy burden in municipal taxation, from a substan- tial amaunt of double taxation. Indus- tries may now deduct their municipal taxes as a business expense in calculat- ing incame tax, and there is no reason wbv lomeoxvners shauid not be treated in the samne way. Sucb a reform wauid also give municipalities same mare ice- way in raising tax manies ta meet the' increasing demand for municipal and educatian services. Bath the municipali- tics and the Federation should note Ibis pr-omise by bath the two nmain parties and baid the nexh goverîment ta it. -Peterborough Examiner Ut %arnmbian ibtt#iff Durham County'a Great Family journal i k Established 111 years aqo in 1854 vWM-I Aima Incorporating t '~e The Bowmcnvilie News The Newcastle Independeni W The Orono News Authertsed cm Second Class Mail by the Postl 011e.

Dear Editar: I saw hy >,oui- paper you are going tri have a vote for liquor and I'd like te express sanie views on the question. TIn Billy Graham's hookiet "The Christ Centred Home" I would like ta quote the foliowing: "Frm earliest time alcoho] has been onc af the major enemies of the home. Alcohol is producing mare than 60,000 aicoholics annually, aiîd in the case of every such persan, soon- er or later it is the home that suffers. Alcohol is one of the major enemies of the home. It not orily rabs the home of the father and mother but it deprives the cildren of the essentials of life". No wonder there ai-e sa miany broken homes, juv- enfle delinquents, teenagers in trainhing schools, police courts, Mien the ' ycame home and find their parenîts drunk.

The Bible says that we are "tri resist the Dcvil and he wili fiee frai us". Before that. Goci says "Submit yourselves ta God". If you have sLibmitted yaurself ta Christ ,ou can resist the Devil and the Bible prom- ises the Devil will fiee frai ,you. You can keep the Devil an the run 24 liaurs a day.

N~. 1Kealer.1 &Igoung On Sunday, October 10th, I had the fun of jogging through the Durham and Ganaraska Forests, with the Tor- onto Hiking Club. Frankly, I don't re- member how many times they have invited me to be their guest-guide, but 1 know that, every occasion has been pleasant. There appears an ad in the newspapers which says that - "You meet the nicest people on a Honda." We could paraphrase it to*read "You meet the nicest people in hiking clubs," especially the Toronto Hiking Club. The members of this particular group met your scribe at the Durham Forest headquarters where we lef t our cars, at 11:30 a.m., and away we wvent, each dressed to bis or ber liking, and each carrying his or her own lunch. In both dress and lunch, your scribe didn't indulge too heavily. Others were very warmly dressed, but ate sparingly, while others carried p]enty of clothes, and plenty of groceries. The day was cool, aund cloudy, with a threat of rain just right for my lik- ing because a bright sun causes me to squint, and a hot day dehydrates me, which doesn't make for comfort on a seven or eight mile bike over bush tra ils. \Ve \ent east along the Manvers- Clarke town-line, to have a look-see at some pulp-wood piles, where 1 was asked a surprising number (if intelli- gent questions such as when the trees had heptn planted; how mnuch would each tree pr-oduce; \Vhv, were only cer- tain trees eut; whv others were pruned eighteen feet from the ground: why somne ere left standing unpruned; howv rnan 'v sticks to a standard cord; xvhat was racani. hy "clear" lumber; wvas the pulp sold by the cord on the stump, or cut and delivered; how long did it take 1<) cul a cord; what methnd was used in se]ecting the tree to be cut, or pruned; why was the brush left on the «round, and wouldn't it become a dangerous fire hazard. A chap from South Africa asked the dimensions of a standard cord of wood; another, from Hong Kong, wanted ta know who bought. the pulp, where the milI \vas Sugar HIIGHER EDUCATION "Whah is Higher Educahioui, Mommy?" His litIle blue eyes searched earnestly. My mind spcd back across bistory's years To mea and wamen, saints and peers rthought a moment, theri I spoke, "Higher education is no pig in a poke, It's living and leamning day by day; Doing the best witb what you have aayway. Yes, you can find it ini a Univer-sity, Or in the throcs of an adversîty, It's in the kitchen at the sink. And in litIle clothes hiuc aad pink. It's in the nearest factory, Or in the hall, in a dormilory. You nught find At milking a cow, situated, and what product would be made from the pulp. So you can un- derstand that, these hikers weren't out just for f resh air, and exercise. We went south, along-the Kiecka Trail ta the 'frost pocket" wâpre it has been difficuit ta establish a Torest. As this spot wvas well protected' grom the cool wind, we sat on terra firma, and had lunch, after which, we plodded south ta look at, and discuss the depre- dations of the white pine weevil. Again, the questioning surprised me as the folks sought ta know why the weevil attacked the "leader" of the white pip.e; how the eggs hatched; what became of tbe larvae after the little rascals had eaten the heart out of the leader; wbere do they pupqte; how were they con- trolied; when was the best time of the year ta spray. and what spray was used. Believe me, a guide bas ta be pretty much of a walking encyclopaedia ta satisfy the searching questions of three dozen men, and women who seem thirsty for knowledge of many things that we, who live in this County, take for granted. The arrivai at the "Dell", seemed ta be the signal for a healthy swîg of the aqua pura that flops out of the ground a few yards ta the north, and for some ta champ on bread and water- cress. At the Big Gulley, the folks found it bard ta helieve that. at one time, the hig ditch didn't exist; they were quite impressed with the past efforts of the Dept. of Lands and For- ests bo reforest it; were pleased ta note that. where the sides of the gullev had hecome stabilized, trees were growing. Whiie in this vicinit ' , just north of McLean's School-house, they were shown the resuits of carefuil tree plan- ning on the estate of Andv Thampson (leader of the Opposition i'n the Legis- lative Assemhiv of Ontario.) Thr'n, it was along the Commonwealth Trail, and sa back ta the cars, where we parted, after wishing each other the best of luck, and hoping for a good hike next year. By that time, these legs of mine will likcly decidv thev wfil be too old. Sp ice By Bill Smuley IN DUTCH WITHI DAUGUHTER AMy daughher is furiaus with nie. Again.
