Why not build a road around Toronto for a change? % f s If this is a more pleasant journey for tourists than driving through St. Catharines Grimsby or Beamsville, which have been so rigidly skirted, then some highway engineers must have peculiar tastes.

The Queen Elizabeth Way carefully skirts Hamilton, diverts tourist traffic from all the smaller centres in the Niagara Peninsula which badly need the reâ€" venue from visitors, and ends nbmrtly with a large stone lion gazing smugly into the heart of the Queen City.

But in the name of all good husbands why did the survey overlook this allâ€"importâ€" ant business of tending babies? Who sits with them while the woman of the house takes in a movie? Who rocks them to sleep or walks the floor with them? Certainly, we know men who have dishâ€" pan hands. In fact, we know some who prefer one soap powder to another. The survey showed that 80 per cent of the men washed dishes, and to this we take no exception. Nor do we object to the survey‘s report that men serub bathtubs, clean rugs, wash windows, and whip up chocolate cake.

Last year, members of the House of Commons were told that at that time $750,000,000.00 would be needed to pay gratuities and take care of reâ€"establishment credits to men returning from battle. One year having passed since then, the cost of that important undertaking has now reached about $900,000,000.00.
