just a v nolan son publishers notes and comments paving the streets white there is snow still on the ground it is not too early for our newly elected council to be giving thought to their road pragram for the coming spring and summer keevcelect elmer daniels has mentioned a number of times in unofficial circles that he favors a program of progressive street paving in stouffville which over a period of time would eliminate the growing annual bill for oiling and graveling this writer for one looks forward to implementation of such a program in 1935 certainly after last years fiasco when our streets were never worse council should give more diligent thought than ever to this proposal possibly not even in the country would one find such a stretch of pot- hoed thoroughfare as can be found on church st one of our busiest secondary streets each year sees additional streets being added as more subdivision land is opened up and each year our bill for oiling and graveling climbs and after all is spent what have we got its certainly time that a sane progressive plan of annual paving was commenced and not too cheap a job either but one which will put a hardtop down to stay under such a program the annual oiling can gradually be curtailed and equally important citizens will not be bounced from curb to curb on our narrow streets tv -k- new powers for cbc one of the main complaints about the cbc has long been its highhandedness naturalborn omni- pqtense as pogo would say with television this divinity complex gets even fuller scope a recent television play likely upset a great many good people of alberta though it perhaps pleased other meilow foothills folk by setting the opening scene in the cocktail lounge of a calgary hotel cbc writers have plenty of license even though alberta hotels do not but the real offence was in the timing the plot hinged around the calgary stampede and the main character a swift current wheat farmer was in town for a bit of a holiday after getting all his crop in either the cbc has the impudence to move the stam pede from july back into the fall or it has found a way to grow saskatchewan wheat awful fast or its attempts at getting canadian culture onto the air waves are based on imperious ingorance rather than knowledge of two of the most important yearly events in the canadian west ponoka alberta herald ft k this wont do mr marler the new minister of transport mr marler has a good deal to learn about his ministerial responsibilities he has recently come up to the big time from the bush league down in quebec and he makes his debut in ottawa with a lame and unconvincing effort to per suade parliament that theres nothing wrong if a tca north star and an rcaf harvard almost collide in the air over moose jaw mr marler says reports of this incident were grossly exaggerated however in the next breath he confirms the fact that these planes altered course to avoid each other if that is normal and in conformity with air regulations then mr marler better be put in charge of oxcart transport and leave the air age to someone less earth- bound a tca pilot captain crispin said the air force trainer was close enough to really scare us and he thought the other pilot had not seen his north star the training plane said mr marler crossed the course of the tca at an angle of 38 degrees and that was in conformity both with the authorized prefiight plans of the two aircraft and the air regulations if this is the case then mr marler would have the public believe that there is so little coordination in making frelight plans of tcas transcontinental routes and those of rcaf training stations encountered along the way that only the alertness of pilots to take evad ing action will prevent accidents if the separation of planes in the air under canadian air regulations is only ooo feet then this rule should be changed at once mr marler might do well to call some of his officials on the carpet his disappointing performance at the outset of his parliamentary career however is entirely his own doing the crash over moose jaw last april took 37 lives one of them that of rodney adarrson a member who would otherwise probably have been sitting op- p ire mr marler in the house today only yesterday an accident in kentucky taking 15 lives reminded newspaper readers of the moose jaw crash and the fact that another such crash almost occurred there only a few days ago what seems routine to mr mar ler and his officials is highly disturbing to air travelers if parliament is satisfied with his lame explanation it is capable of swallowing anything the telegram fr k it a great man is dead the death of mr robert saunders is a real tragedy even to the noint of being a disaster the whole do minion has lost a great man he had held some of the highest positions in the province of ontario and might have attained greater heights had he lived we knew bob saunders to a degree through our press connections and his dynamic personality has kept us wrapped many times during press and muni cipal sessions he talked slept and ate hydro for years he seemed incapable of tiring and the momentum he gave to the great st lawrence project should see it carried to a successful conclusion work to him was life itself and he loved every minute of it too suddenly and too soon he has been taken he made

of a rule which really matters if there is real affection and un derstanding and imagination on the part of both adults and children in a family the matter of rules will not be a perpetual battleground the golden rule which was golden two thousand years ago is still golden in the 20th cen tury therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you do ye even so to them the tragic thing is that it is so seldom the guid ing light in relations between individuals even in a family as a modern observer has opinted out this way of life has not been tried and found to be a failure it just hasnt been tried what better place is there to try the golden rule than in your home copyright the value of struggle several years ago an englishman who had lived for many years on the island of samoa where robert louis stevenson made his home told me that the climate was so pleasant and jthe soil so fertile that the natives were enervated and became listless he had a lot of respect for the natives but the sterner virtues such as reliability and initiative were lacking the samoan language had no words such as grit handicap courage and difficulty life came easy and they had no need for these words on the other hand it is wellknown that in severe climates such as scandanavia and finland the rugged life makes charac ters sturdy and enterprising so struggle has its place in the development of worthwhile men and women i once wrote a story for boys which illustrates this truth several years ago a squadron of the british navy lay at anchor in a fine natural harbour on the east coast of scotland the ships were being refuelled before proceeding elsewhere un expectedly a storm arose and its fury was such that the naval ships chafed and fretted at their moorings chains were snapped and in a few hours a great deal of damage was done the hurricane came from the east and for a short time it looked as if the vessels would be dashed against the rocks there is only one thing to do said the commander we must put out to sea and face the storm so the ships faced the hurricane and found safety b doing what at first seemed a foolhardy thing we often hear people talk about a sheltered life a life where one is shielded and protected from unpleasant experiences actually there is no such thing if one does try to avoid danger and difficulty disaster is sure to follow in pilgrims phogress john bunyan tells of mr timidity who was always trying to avoid taking any kind of risks he spent his ife waiting until he was absolutely safe and sure about everything before he made a move the result was that instead of being safe his want of courage was his chief undoing most of the difficulties we meet could easily be overcome if we were brave enough to face thm squarely there is a good illustration of this in the old testament as the israelites approached canaan spies were sent out to view the land and to make a report they returned and made their report to moses and aaron they said it was a wonderful land with abundant water and fertile soil it was a land of wheat and barley and such fruit as they had never seen before they brought a cluster of grapes so large that it required two men to carry it so far it was a magnificent report but they added we were not able to go against the people for they were stronger than we we saw giants the sons of anak and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers and so we were in their sight braver men than these however spoke up and urged a forward movement such men as joshua and caleb so the israel- entered the land and possessed it and just here is an interesting thing nothing was ever seen or heard of any giants no doubt there were some tall men there but their size was greatly exaggerated in the eyes of the timid spies fear magnified diffi culties they were fearful with nothing to be afraid of joshua like the british commander knew that the way out of danger was to face and conquer it there is truth is this old verse by aaron hill tender handed stroke a nettle and it stings you for your pains grasp it like a man of mettle and it soft as silk remains our quotation today is by frank crane if every man were
