Historic centres always attract tourists. Tourist trade is one of our great sources of revenue year in and out. Therefore it is beneficial to all citizens to see that the proper upkeep of such historic centres are kept in good condition and made attractive. During the past week there has been considerable publicity ‘given to one of the important historie spots in Ontario. It is located just west of Bathurst street on the lake shore drive.‘ It stands back off the highway and is most difâ€" ficult to reach unless you khow the way. Thousands of our citizens do not know the history or the part that the fort played in the early days ofâ€"Ontario and Toronto. Many have never visited the place nor seen the effort put forth to make this one of the outstanding attractions of Toron?o. A few faithful have tried to keep the place in repair and to make it interesting. On the 24th there was held a ceremony with a few motables present. This, however, is not enough. It is high time that the City of Toronto assumes its responsibility to have the fort put into m state of repair and the grounds and approach fixed. With the fullest @oâ€"operation of the city officials and the various interested societies this spot can be made the centre for all tourist attractions. From the statements made it would appear that the city has a definite responâ€" sibility to see that the buildings and grounds are kept up. As citizens of the community, as individuals sharing in the tourist trade, as proud members of this centre we should lend our powers to see that action is taken to place the fort in the forefront, with necessary repairs and publicity. It can be made an outstanding attraction. Right here and now we wish to state that we are all for forming a Committee for the Protection of Hapless Males Not On Anyâ€" body‘s Best Dressed List. Let‘s consider what the average Canadian male does each morning. He rises to the reveille of the alarm clock and slips into a shirt that long since lost its will to live. Around his throat he fastens a tie picked at random from an extensive collection of three strips of frayed material. The suit choice is an important one, of course. He stands in deep perplexity before the foot of cupboard space allotted to him by his better 74. Will he wear the blue or the grey? Since he painted the porch last spring FORT YORK For instance, this year May 24 fell on a Thursday. No one is too sure what should have been done. Some stores took Friday, other places of business closed Monday, while a number adhered to the official Thursâ€" day holiday. The Good Queen may end up by having her birthday celebrated on no less than three days and, no doubt, this would have shocked her efficient soul no end. In her lifetime she would have sent a message to the Prime Minister, ‘we are not amused‘. And frankly, we feel the same way about the endless conâ€" fusion that results from official rigidity conâ€" cerning midâ€"week holidays. Around this time of year various authoriâ€" ties take it on themselves to select Canada‘s Best Dressed Men. This is a spring custom which makes the selectees happy, the tailors hysterical with joy and the rest of us ashamed that we just haven‘t had the time to drop into Gents‘ Furnishings to pick up that smappy. little pepperâ€"andâ€"salt job at $36.50. ANNOUNCING THE CPHMNOABDL The move has been mentioned many times but evidently representatives of the people are so hideâ€"bound by tradition that they fear to make a change. Argument for the holding of all holidays on Monday is overwhelmingly logical. When a holiday occurs throughout the week, there is confusion, disruption in production and loss of a beneficial long weekâ€" end to workers.

The quickest way to give the community a faceâ€"lifting is to roll up your sleeves and pitch in on a oneâ€"man beauty campaign that will inspire the whole street. Community beautification depends on the attitude of every citizen. No byâ€"law ever invented will work a miracle. If it does, congratulate yourself and take a bow, good citizen. If it doesn‘tâ€"shame on youâ€"and remember that one homeâ€"owner on a street with pride in his home and communâ€" ity can set off a spark that will beautify the whole neighborhood. Good example is conâ€" tagious. The kind of community in which you live depends on you. What interests us is why the writer did not sign his real name, or the name of the group he was representing. Was the letter written on behalf of a group who are afraid to reveal their identity because the move would appear then to be simply a matter of malice? They wished rather to give the imâ€" pression that a private citizen was up in arms. Spontaneous combustion, instead of a straâ€" tegical attack. We have no intention of disseminating the views of individuals or groups who do not have the intestinal fortitude to sign their names to communications criticising others. Names need not appear in these columns but we refuse to print letters from faceless phanâ€" toms motivated by heaven knows what. UP TO YOU, JOHN HENRY Never mind the chap next door, the lazy character who never puts a lid on his garâ€" bage. Take a look around your own yard toâ€" day. Does the bright spring sun reveal a wellâ€"kept lawn, no trash, lovely trees and shrubbery, a clean and wellâ€"painted home? Recently a chap whose first name is alâ€" leged to be ‘Harris‘ (family name?) wrote to this paper and in similar vein to three or four other papers in West York. On checking the address and signature, it has been learned that no such person exists at the address given. The missive is typed beautifully, set up somewhat like a regular press release, and appears to be a planned campaign against a public figure. â€" Rarely a week goes by without the editor receiving an anonymous letter. The usual procedure is to flip the letter in the direction of the waste paper basket and forget about it. At this point it‘s best to wave one‘s arms and scream about the High Cost of Living. This will naturally be swept aside with feminine scorn and complete disregard for facts. Why doesn‘t he get a raise? Mr. Bileâ€" grass next door got one in January for $500. We wonder if, in 1952, the Wardrobe Watchers would just whisper the good news into the ears of the honored ones? That way lies peace in our time.â€"Voice Writing.

Since March is too early to wear running shoes, he selects the brown jobs with the fashionable sloped or rockin,-chair heel. They boast the knottedâ€" lace effect so popular this season. When he descends to breakfast he is conâ€" scious of tension in the air. When he reads the paper he gleans the reason. The Little Woman has just seen where Canada‘s Best Dressed Men have been selected again. And is her wee mannie in it? You can bet his battered hat he isn‘t. And why isn‘t he? in the blue he takes the grey. After all, it has the new Neat Look. In fact, the suit takes {;hu:toNut Look so seriously that it won‘t n.

Buses will leave the church at 1 p.m. sharp. Further details of the natâ€" ure of the picnic lunch will be given in the church bulletin.

No one in the final analysis has any reason to boast (glory) of his special blessâ€" ings and possessions, except one person. The prophet Jeremiah said, "Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: But let him that glorieth glory in this, t h a t He â€" understandeth _ a n d knoweth Me, that I am the I which exercise loving kindr judgement, and righteousness, in earth." Scripture again tells that, "He that glorieth, let glory in the Lord." The pastor, Mr. Piper, phasized the fact that the Chris is the only person who has t h kn wthdnfl-lhmfiutothl:mudhulbliu in love with one another. On this second Sunday after Trinity the Epistle, taken from 1st John 3â€"13 points out that love of one anothér is the true foundation upon which victorious living can be built. It was the basis upon which our Lord instructed His followers. It is the one factor that can bring together the world toâ€"day. Christians who are earnest and desirous of following the teaching of our Lord must take stock of themselves. Are we following the teachings as expressed in this Epistle? Are we living in accord with the life of our Lord? These are personal questions that can be answered only by the individual, Sit down and reason them out. When you read the gospel for the day taken from St. Luke 14â€"16 you will see the same teaching as put forth as in the Epistle. It is put forth in a different light but the demands are the same. Yes, we must learn to live in harmony. We must be ready to help our fellowmen in t}.m life. It does not mean the writing of a cheque. It means the personal aid. In order to secure the inspiration and aid we ourselves need we must support our churches. The call comes to us toâ€"day. That call is falling upon a lot of deaf ears. It is imperative for each one of us that more gtnqtion is paid to the invitation to come and learn how we can live victoriously. Read these two passages and follow the teaching.

Selections from the Bible inâ€" cluded the following from Psalms 66:8,9, "O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved." The congregational picnic is scheduled for Saturday .June 16th. More information will be given shortly. The Minister, Rev. R. C.

No doubt you will be hearing from the president of the Ontario Division of the Cancer Society, but may we at this agency take this opportunity of thanking the newsâ€" papers for your splendid effort this year, as always, to help wage the fight against Cancer. Yours very truly, Stevenson & Scott Ltd., S. C. Young, General Manager. Newspapers â€" have played | an essential part in achieving this success. A tremendous amount of editorial space has been given to the campaign as evidenced by the enormous number of clippings in the hands of Mrs. Fisher, Director of Publicity for the Ontario Diviâ€" sion. If the advertising department of your paper was able to put on any special promotionâ€"to arrange a sponsored advertising | suppleâ€" ment, for instanceâ€"then we should like to hear about it so that we may pass this news on to the Ontario Campaign Committee. Results of the campaign are not yet known but almost all units of the Ontario Division are very optimistic and feel that whereas they may not have achieved this year‘s greatly increased objective, they will certainly top last year‘s results.
