there has been mourn ing throughout the land and it will not end when the last funoral ritcthaic been perforjiiedovur the tired body and it has been laid among his foreboorors the things that made king george vi qreat and beloved wore the simple things the taking up of heavy duties which were cast upon him whon an older brother failed in his responsibili ties the hoalth which was not robust did not dotor him his family life and example to all and his steadfastness to duty ahead of self are per haps the background for the love and respect that he commanded in the millions over which he ruled these are the things that will live on in history and in the hearts of his people this is the spirit that will live on after the human frame has been laid to rest such a king is not dead while

real was renew ed vhon a headline drew our attention to an article abput 1 17 year old lad bob moajess the boy submitted an old chunk of cardboard on which commercial painters had cleaned their brushes to the curator of the art gallery toron to for constructive criticism he received his painting back with a letter from the curator congratulating him for being aware of ihe accidental effects that can rosult from lines calligraphy blots and the use of a sprn gun naturally when the truth was learned there were many excuses offered for the curators re marks and possible praise to our mind he isnt the first curator that has made mistakes we don t pretend to bo a connoisseur of art but some of the canvases hanging in some of the exhibits weve seen dont look too appealing there could probably be violent support from cultural groups about the propriety of uch abstract pieces called art but a painting to us is still something that shows a real object through his skill the true artist must present the character and the finer tones that an ordinary photograph can not suitably record we were once told that true art in all the artistic things like music painting and writing led the way and acted as some sort of indirect prophesy of the future perhaps it is true and perhaps it is not one thing is sure though we have no desire to interpret the blobs of paint and color the irregular lines and unpleasant effects achieved in me modern painting to us as to many others the true artist will still be measured by the depth of his painting the attention to detail and the ability to portray vividly the type of thing ordinary people can recognize it will be a lot more trouble for a 17 yearold boy to submit a dobbedup effort and have a curator offer encouragement if reality is the key note of painting and not blobs of color ity i thought i told you to just use that thing on hsh a continuing work followingthe completion of sewers last year acton council made a splendid restoration of many of the streets and citizens have every rea son for pride in them unfortunately the pro- qram of street repairs is one that has been deter loratmg over the years with lack of materials as one of the items that has deterred attention to that group known as pedestrians for instance the residents of cameron st have for years been promised sidewalks and everyone will admit
