was effective from january hi wc ve heard rumours and maybe they are wishes only that this year would not be a fitting one to hold a reunion of the old boys and girls and with dominion day coming on saturday thtt day hm bn mentioned at a suitable dale there will be eigumenft pro and con on all phases of such an event for instance acton will be a bit topty turvy this year with sewer construction but then again this is the year of becoming a town it has always tavemed that if one waits for all the obstacles to be cleared for any big event the event is not held acton missed its seventy fifth anniversary celebration two year ago and the hundredth anniversary of the establishment of a post office and the naming of the town because a war inter fered the point is that if acton is to celebrate the occasion of becoming a town this summer at any date plans should be made now and invitations should go out this spring holiday plans of many people are made early one more point we would like to make wt do not believe it is the duty of council to head l p or financially support such a reunion there arc nine citizens on council who give a lot of time and effort to ihe community and surely among ihe 2652 other residents of acton there aie enough to spark plug a reunion here for 1950 if each community organization will ap point a couple of members to represent it the work will start rolling and be ust as successful as it has in the past its a different world grandfather was a fine man who withstood tht buffets of fate for fitd by a firm faith in the greatness of queen victoria and frit infallibility of sir john a mncdonnld ht come into the 20th century unafraid wasting little time on specula tion about the future and confident he had done the right thing in the past with all affection for grandfather we think the old nun should be praised as much for his children as for himself grandfather was spared i share in two world whs that tore at the vitals of canada he never knew tht dra n of taxation tl at ate away his hardearned profits he went to led not later than ten and rose not later than sovon his sweet slumbers und sturbtd by tele phone radiq or low flying airplane it was a good way to i ve we suspect grandfather would be acutely unhappy in the present aqe of cynicism lo which we have become accustomed old rocks of tradi tion and security to which we clung have been changed and in some cases washed away we live faster more exhausling lives even if we have no blisters and dislike travelling slowly in cold weather it can be argued that modern men and wo men are making a mess of civilization and may extinguish it altogther with o few atomic explo sions but when we think what individualistic unrestrained grandpa would do if he had an atom bomb to fling about at those who offended him we are glad that the ob of running this dis tiacted world is not in his hands ottawa jour nal i a world ideology what a lot of tcouble that long erky word ideology causes us so many people don t like it they prefer old ways and old words ideology is like a piece of barbed wire it sticks in your ctullet if you swallow it you will never be the same again butaftoraluidoology isasojdasdiumfii dom for christ brought an ideology into the world thoughsome of us havebeen trying to contract it into a more comfortable mould of mere theology ever since the christ child brought a vision of what the whole earth is mant to be he pointed the thjpe of a new world order he asked us to relate every private and public action towards that vision he offered us the secret of how id rise above the grooves of wlf interest and of planning our lives or our nations life he brought us the source of a passion to death and beyond it for this vision ha gave all men an illumination a source of direction outside themselves he offered the secret hope of handling m dividual by changing human natureones own nature one s own nation and the wide wide world that is christian it is not quite canadian yet put it can become so and then we shall enjoy the finest years in alt our hisloryt rural ckuch cutibae ol tfce cetmuity talk is circulating that more urban
