honored for some years such has been the custom on this north american continent and none will question the edvisabitity of maintaining the custom it need not be an elaborate or ex pensive observance even the wearing of a flower in her honor may be uet as significant as giving an expensive gttf rtie important thing it that you remembered customs change with the years the mother whose memory we cherish wouldnt have been honored by the gift of an elab orate lipstick or a cigarette case or lighter she liked us to wear a flower go to church with her or perhaps have dinner with her and most of all to spend a part of the day with her and utt visit she liked the fact that we still considered her important enough in our lives that she had a place she liked gifts too but we can recall yet her admonish men when she said you shouldnt have done that it wasn t necessary of course it wasn t necessary but perhaps it conveyed the fact that it required some sacrifice on our part to present the tribute that s the important point to convey to mother on mother t day next sunday do it as you wish youknow her as your closest friend and companion she understands you as no one else in the world even if she is gone from you you recall her visions and ambitions for you her spirit lives on mother t day is important in her life but even more important in your life not all imports baby carnage block the udewalki in montreal according to a recent visitor to canadas largest city other communities may not ba quite as congested but all of them report plenty of brand new canadians says the financial pott in the first few years of the war births started to ump with over 250000 in 1940 and almost 300000 in 1945 and since the war we have been doing still belter with over 477000 or almost half a million babies bom in canada last year it is this rapily expanding birth rate which is the main reason for canada s recent spec tacular growth and the main hope for its con tinuing immigration

we appli then both parties can be sued one of the few newspapers which can ctatm to have successfully ud a municipal body for libel must be le prognws of chanv bly pq following a series of critical articles on the towns mayor chambly coun cil ordered the paper to explain itself to the satisfaction of the council and warned that if such an explanation were not given the council would order all group and individ uals with which it was associated to stop ad vertising in the paper such an orow beside being out of the province of a municipal council was a flag rant attempt to control comment in le pro gress tt is heartening that such an attempt was not successful and that the court upheld not only le progress right to oomment freely but that newspapers while pursuing an hon est function of criticism and comment can be protected from defamation under the cloak of municipal privilege the importance of a press free to report and comrnent cannot possibly be underrated peterborough examiner this might apply elsewhere over in britain people are excited by the new kind of prize offered by a london news paper instead of ihe contest s prize being a trip around the world or a furnished home with an obedient wife and soundproofed children the paper is offering to pay the win ning contestant s income tax for life of course as income tax will have to be paid on the winnings nobody is going to get clear away but the enthusiasm for the contest sug gests that among the deepest yearnings of the british people psychologists had better start listing the yearning to avoid paying in come tax an

back along with food besides the fine work of this newspaper in scaring the british government television is also getting in some good licks elsewhere almost any 10 yearold in the u s or canada who has any decent ambition to get ahead is ready with an opinion on whether contest ants in celebrated quiz shows should try for the next question rapidly calculating the undertow of income tax children and even muddleheaded adults are able to pass udg ment on whether the risk and effort of deal ing with a further question are going to be worth while as for the contestants who actually have to make the decisions it be comes apparentfhet the only ones who keep on against the politicians law that all returns for extra effort will diminish are the glassy eyed gamblers and those who care more about accomplishment than about money the printed word small fry win a point generations of small boys have persist ently advised their parents that it ts desirable to begin a meat by eating the dessert first but to no avail the response has always been the same if the soup is not eaten if every bit of carrot and spinach is not careful ly masticated no dessert at all from time immemorial children have submitted to this threat now they have adult allies an american dentist asserts that by all means dessert should be eaten first and vegetables last this procedure he claims reduces tooth decay the vegetables help to remove sugar from the teeth which otherwise carry particles of sugar when dessert is eat en last before small boys lay down the law and demand an introductory serving of ice cream or apple pie they should know that opinion on this question is divided while one to ronto dentist agrees that there may be sub stance to this theory the head of the faculty of dentistry in the university of toronto has little faith m it at any rate it would seem from the point of view of small fry that the position of par ents has been somewhat undermined and that the customary routine

up to the experienced driver to drive defensively as the british road services put it a defensive driver is one who is careful to commit no driving errors himself who makes allowance for the lack of skill or im proper attitude on the part of the other fel low and who does nqt allow hazards of weather and road conditions or the actions of pedestrians and other drivers to involve him in an accident he keeps continually on the alert recognizes an accidentproducing situation far enough in advance to apply the necessary preventive actions and concedes the right of way when necessary to prevent an accident defensive driving can be summed up m these three words control courtesy and concentration wherees the defensive drivet can be described in one word he anticj- pte dessert appear last on the
