decentralized playgrounds would be a splen did municipal boon in acton which now requir es moderate decentralization wonderful buys an advertisement we road the oilier day said some wonderful cars at 200 perhaps you have met some of these wonders in your travels perhaps your meeting has been such that you wondered why these cars were on the road there may have beon a day not long ago when it was ustified to keep some of these cars in service now with product catching up with demand for better cars it would seem time to eliminate tome of these accident risks from our high ways we know there is a real temptation to keep the old cars in operation but when cattle aie found diseased it is made compulsory to de stroy them so that humairhealth may not be en dangered would it not seem reasonable to scrap machines which are a menace to the lives of citi rens unless they meet standard requirements of safety perhaps it would be reasonable to make a payment from the unsatisfied- creditors fund and see that some of those wonderful buys were removed from service at least with each one sold a proof of financial liability should be enforced what is work labor at the present time seems to have a growing feeling of indifference and lack of re sponsibilify half hearted effort lateness in re porting on the job and doing a minimum of work are some of the conditions complained of by employers employees who wouldn t think of stealing a nickel from their employer would waste time for which they are paid a habit which amounts to the same thing it 15 a trend which could have serious repercussions to the individual and the country at large marty workmen are watching the clock to uch an extent that they aren t getting much satisfaction from their work nor giving much comfort to those who employ them if only we were taught that work is the greatest happiness in life and that in doing an honest days work we are not only loyally serving ourselves but our fellow men was what mane beynon ray had to say about it the pioneers toiled from sunrise to sunset to leave canada the heritage if is today while we would not wish to se those long days return we should all be prepared to give of our best on the shorter hour schedule thomas a edison ust before his death said i am wondering what would have happened to me by now if fifty years ago some fluent talker had converted me to the theory that it was not fair to my fellow workers to put my best efforts to my work i am glad that the eight hour day had not been invented when 1 was a young man if my life had been made up of eight hour days i do not believe i could have accomplished a great deal this country would not amount to as much as it does if tho young men of fifty years ago had been afraid that they might earn more than they were paid for with a forty hour week for the railway and freight boosts announced the price end cost wheel spins again but the consumer never wins there ought to be a law in our reading thin week we came across this bit of modern philosophy which suggontj more truth than fiction but loo many in ihls age of jelsurearldelcknajh9 lljue hoping llm othorfollowwlll ctsfrylhetoahi there ought to be a law that would make everybody rich the lawmakers ought to put an end to need by voting lo guarantee everybody an income of j 50000 a year ii wouldnt matter that prices would increase i wed all be gelling a thousand crisp dollar bills every friday night the only work anyone would have lo do would be lo collect the cash but whore would we collect bank clerks would be loo rich to be bank clerks nobody would be foolish enough to run a printing press to turn out money even iho law makers wouldn i attend any more sessions they wouldn i have to because thoy d bo rich too we would all liko to go to miami or hawaii but no pilots or sailors or train crows would be working to take us thure thoy too would be too ridi lo want lo work there wouldn i bo any milkmen or mailmen or motornien there wouldn i oven bo any sales hiiiiuso there would bo hothlnn lo soil everybody would bo gloriously happy under iho new law for well for an hour or so then tho folly of tho law would bocome painfully obvious wed all suddenly remember that buying power does not como from having a barrolful of money wo d loarn all over again that buying power comos from production of goods and services with markol valuo buying power comes from creating clothing and cars harvests and homos and all iho other goods- that people want and need buying pow or comes from providing services like telephone communications transportation and taking care of the baby while parents go out for the oven ing money is not produced it merely represents production for tho purpose of making exchange faster and easier no amount of legislative hand outs of money can over support a sane economy only produc lion can do thai there ought to bo a law against tho fanciful pictures painted by people who promise to pass laws tint will make us all rich while wo sit on the sidelines and watch bowmonville states lets be just canadians when our american friends come to canada they are visiting a foreign land they want to have the feeling that this is a nation different from their own they do not want the stars and stripes wav ed in their faces proud of their own flag though ihey are canadians who drag out tho american flag on every possible occasion and some im possible ones do so with the idea that they are being courteous lo american visitors this is not the case the only time the amencarrflag should be flown in this country is at some oint canad lan american undertaking to fly it at any other lime is bad manners american tourists want to see the union jack or the canadian ensign flying in canada not their own flag and we could do with a great deal more display of our flag es peciallyon national holidays dominion day found it noticeably absent canadians should get away from the idea that americans are flattered when we name our restaurants the new york beanery or use some other pseudoamerican name for our tour ist enterprises in the hope of inveigling tourists lo come in cheap imitations do not make an american visitor feel at home there are fine canadian names which are seldom seen cana dians perhaps should get to know their own his lory belter we must do everything we can to build up a sound reputation for hospitality to smooth the way for american tourists in search of canada we must see to it that american visitors get full value for the money they spend here and most important we must be ourselves american tourists want to get to know can ada and canadians we must impress them with tho facv that we are a courteous fair dealing peo ple glad to welcome them to our country and that we are canadians and nation among nations editorial notes 1 we read this definition somewhere which seemed so all inclusive that we pass it on so that readers can readily recognize the various
