RAMAGE. Editor and Proprieter Such sentiment runs through our m.ad when we think over the fatality to the Durham youth last Friday night through no fault of his or the motorâ€" ist. Sympathy in large measure g0€s out to the bereaved parents, but that will not bring back their boy. Youth must have its sport, and innocent children suffer for an accident no one "Better a fence at the top of the hill Than an ambulance down in the valâ€" thought of happening. The same conditions as brought about the colliâ€" sion between car and handâ€"sleigh might not occur again for years, as a split minute either way would have averted the tragedy. And then again such sleigh.ng conditions on Chester St. hill might not occur again in Durham is surrounded by hills and the hills that make forsuch a romanâ€" tic setting, also result in tragedies. It has been to us an old story, this risk of sleighâ€"riding on Durham hill, and many a strapping Was handed out to school pupils by the late Prinâ€" cipal Allan for infraction of the town byâ€"law. Other hilis there were, of course, but in former days, these were not properly lighted and not nearly so attractive. The Chester St. hill has generally been regarded as a safe hill for hand sleighing, and the fact that a governâ€" ment highway crossed at right angles the foot of the street, was not before brought home to most of the citizens. Some sand scattered on Chester St. a few yards before the Highway inâ€" tersection, when the road is packed hard oricy, would prevent handsleighs reaching No. 4 Highway with its posâ€" sible danger, and allow the children to still enjoy riding down that hill, which has little traffic, at a minimum of risk. We would suggest that the Council have a heap of sand laid at side of road near this intersection, and instruct some citizen living nearâ€" by to scatter some across street there when it is iceâ€"covared or otherwise Creditors‘ Arrangement Act where more thrifty. in time he saved by it will be terminated in Ontario enough money to emigrate to the and extended in its operations in United States and open a dry goods Saskatchewan, is now before the store.

Th e Review believes that the Goâ€" ing away with this Act will be a forâ€" ward step in securing better times for the larger majority of farmers and business men also, and lead to a greater feeling of security. A story is told of Jacob Meyer, American merchant prince, that when he was 15 years old he applied for the job of janitor in his native town of Bratovsk in Russia. He was deâ€" lighted when he was accepted, but when they asked for his signature on a formal blank, he had to admit that he could neither read nor writeâ€"he couldn‘t even sign his own name, So he didn‘t get the job. However that defeat was an important milestone in his life, for he made up his mind to show the authorities what a fine serâ€" vant they had imissed because of their stupid rules, Never did anyone work so hard, never was anyone encugh money to emigrate to the United States and open a dry goods store.

If the denâ€" sity is one, then one person would have one square mile of land for himself or, if the density is 200, one person hasn‘t very much of the square mile. Belgium, the peaceâ€"loving little country, has the greatest density of the 25 countries listed. There are 698 people for every square mile ot land. _ The Netherlands follow with 606. The United Kingdom, includâ€" ing the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, comes third with 491. Then follow in order Japan with 470 _ Germany 361 and Italy 344. China‘s vast area has a population density of 235. That is less than the teeming population of British India, where there are 248 persons per Poor warâ€"torn Spain whose populaâ€" tion density in 1930 was 121 will probably have a greatly reduced figure by now. In 1934 mysterious Russia in Europe had a density of 58 persons, It makes one breathe more freely when United States shows 41 persons but the figures for Canada and Ausâ€" tralia make one absolutely lonesome.
