the tribune stouffville out thursday september 8 1949 the stouffville tribune established 1888 member of the canadian weekly newspaper association and ontario quebec newspapers association member of the audit bureau of circulations authorized as second class mall post office department ottawa issued every thursday at stouffville ontario in canada 5200 in usa 250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments some wise thinking the goderich signal star observes that the beauty queens are not always the most beautiful girls nor can the best blooms always be found at the flower show neither are those elected to parliament the best men in the country there is no moral in these observations says the paper just thoughts provoked by newspaper pictures of some beauty shop queens the editor certainly doesnt have his thoughts easily diverted ontario government would aid public works the ontario governments recently announced plan to set up an imposing sum of money to be loaned to municipal ities for public works such as sewers and water systems seems to have the commendation of many of the large daily newspapers the financial post points out that the plan is good but politics and reckless loans must be avoided as we see it the municipalities will not benefit much if at all any solvent municipality now may borrow money for these purposes at three percent and the government is not likely to make an interest rate much below this rate thus we wonder where the saving- is to be found even if the government loans bear interest at 2v percent the saving will be nominal however until the conditions are announced we await the announcement before we will feel there is real aid in the plan fair time its only a matter of a very few weeks now before fall fairs across ontario will be in full swing these fairs are pleasant events for the respective communities to con template because they promise welcome relief from the humdrum affairs of everyday rural and urban life this is true of the largest and the smallest of these annual events a fair is a fair and they are all happy occasions when the carnival spirit is abroad they foster a spirit of friendly competition among people in many lines of endeavour and are excellent places to become acquainted with modern trends in industry and agriculture they are grand places to go to renew old acquaintances and get brought up to date on the news that doesnt hit the newspapers and the radio yes fair time is a grand time and just to make sure that these annual institutions get the encouragement they deserve now is a good time to make up your mind to ensure their success by participating in them actively or as a spectator looking for noahs ark living in a mechanical age many of us are tempted to think and say that the last frontiers of the unknown have been breached that the age of adventure has gone by how wrong this is can be seen from a glance at our daily newspaper even with all seas and continents explored mankind still hunts adventure and will go to the frozen mountain peaks the upper airs and the depths of the sea to find it last week a gentleman from california dived a mile below the surface of the pacific an ottawa man learned more of the secrets of the birds by breaking the glider record in a 90mile odyssey men are crossing the atlantic in tiny boats but topping them all a group of americans is en route to mount ararat in the hopes of finding traces of noahs ark we confess that this noahs ark search which has been mentioned in the tribune on various occasions appeals to us more strongly than any of the other strange quests of modern times here surely are all the elements of which adventure and romance are made in the first place the search has a religious background like the quest of the holy grail on the way to the historic peak seekers would meet caravans of camels richlyladen beautiful circassian maid ens kurds turkish horsemen of the border country rus sian counterintelligence agents who are taking a notorious ly low view of the ark project there would be locusts and wild honey wine cooled with sherbet followers of the prophet with their prayerrugs great feasts of mutton around the campfires since wood is highly perishable it seems altogether unlikely that any trace of the ark which originally must have been bigger than the queen elizabeth will ever be found but what a gorgeous time could be had looking for it petting in public ottawa apparently is undergoing a severe spell of public amorousness with the active participants clad in bathing suits some of which are described as skimpy one official claims that this sort of thing is turning public play grounds into passion parks and he wants a civic ordinance passed to stop it he thinks it may put wrong ideas into the heads of children and that it is in general a minor civic disgrace we sympathize with the ottawa official and with all ottawa authorities if the practice is as prevalent as is claimed were inclined to think however that the report was slightly exaggerated although with a sound foundation on facts any undue display of affection in public we think is exceedingly poor taste and we doubt if canadas capital is more afflicted with poor taste per 100000 of population than any other canadian community it could be said that kingston is troubled by the same problem only it is in a way divided here we have seen a certain amount of bussing embracing and carressing in public on past occasions but those so occupied wore at least a minimum of conventional dress and we have also seen only too often examples of the obviously blind determination of many women to wear unconventional dress in places where such clothing was never intended to be displayed sunsuits and bosomharness and slacks combinations we submit were never meant for general street wear once again it is a question of taste we think parading such clothes through the streets reveals a startling lack of taste and too often a startling misconception by the wearer of her physical attributes however we have long known that women will wear what they wish for that reason and others we would never recommend a civic ordinance regulating dress but it could be stopped if some civic- spirited photographer were to photograph rear views and publicize them complete with names that would do the trick in some other city of course
