considerable effort to label the present government with unsavory accusation in some quarters but the public did not appear interested in the type of accusation and gave their answer on thursday with an overwhelming ma jority for mr frost and his colleagues the people have spoken and elected the govern ment of their choice in true democratic fashion there fore it is now the duty of everyone regardless of party to abide by the decision and give support to the government that they might carry out their plans on behalf of the people the laborprogressive party it should surely ap pear have been virtually wiped from the slate by the people of ontario who have demonstrated that they want no part of a party that wishes to tamper with our way of life water situation in town grim there are constant complaints in town about low water pressure particularly at the east end and on more than one occasion lately some householders have complained that they could get practically no water t all from their taps in consultation with the chair man of the utilities commission some months ago we were given to understand that some action was to be taken to remedy a bad situation stouffville is growing fast and will continue to do so and some steps must he taken and taken fast to bring more modern service to our antiquated water supply six months have elapsed since we were told of impending improvements and we arc still awaiting action the chlovination system being used on the water is cutting down our 12inch main supply from the reservoirs to almost half the supply available and such conditions cannot continue with more and more services being demanded there has been some talk at utility commission meetings of cutting out lawn taps but this would appear to be a paltry remedy to the situation if the little water being used for this purpose is shorting the supply there will be much difficulty in supplying the evergrowing number of new houses it would appear that some action must be taken to either sink new purewater wells so that chlorination will not be necessary and therefore all the water can be allowed through the main line or some new system of- chlorination be installed which will work with a villi flow passing the 12inch line from the reservoirs there has always been cpiite a firm understanding that the supply of water on the town property was quite adequate providing it was properly harnessed and supplied to town yellow butter wrappers brantford expositor remember the red leno some packers used to put rn baskets of peaches it was claimed of course that this was merely intended to make the peaches look more attractive the effect however was not quite as innocent as that customers ended up by buying what they thought were ripe peaches only to be dis illusioned when they took the deceptive colored cover ing off vigorous protests over a period of years some of them led by this newspaper resulted in the banning of the red netting and so in less victimizing of the customers before long however another variation began to be played on this theme bacon started to appear packaged in paper marked with colorful nearlooking wavy stripes of course nobody would admit that the idea was to make fat bacon look lean but oddly enough thats just what it did in several instances well thanks again to strong complaints this sort of packaging is either prohibited or about to be pro hibited and again the customer is protected before relaxing in any vigilance however take notice that a new menace at least its new to our notice has arisen at least one company is packag ing butter in a distinctly attractive and distinctly yellow wrapping again there will be assurances that this is simply and solely in the interest of pretty merchandising as a matter of fat in this instance the real stuff inside is quite ellow but what if some less scrupulous firm were to adopt the same method actually there is no need for subterfuge at wrapper level because under our quaint laws it is permissible to artificially color butter while definitely not permis sible to give margarine the same treatment the question thnt may now be asked with interest is this if it u legal and even laudable to wrap butter up in nice yellow waxed paper should it not be equally allowable to wrap margarine the same way while the answer should be obvious we have just a faint expectation that any such policy would bring loud and heartrending protests against the wicked trickery of the margarine merchants whats sauce for the goose is not always sauce for the gander

facing a second one i expected to find him depressed but to my relief he was cheerful and very brave as far removed from selfpiy as a man could be few things have astonished me more than the courage of those who have had grueling experiences the absence of selfpity has made me ashamed of myself and re minded me of franklin roosevelts sayms we have nothing to fear but fear itself if one has a stout heart what happens i doesnt matter so much my rmtnd margaret brown who has lived 40 years in china with only three or four visits to her home in canada told me a story of courage which i once wrote in a book for boys and i wish to repeat here it is true in every detail wanc chanchsi was a sixteenyearold chinese boy work ing on his fathers farm in 1931 when the nevs came that the japanese had seized mukden and were planning to take the whole of the three eastern provinces away from china he was i filled with indignation at th unfairness of it a and when he learned how his people were being humiliated he resolved to join the army of resistance there was then no official declaration of war but many chinese showed deep resentment and there was considerable fighting he left his home and joined the twenty- ninth army under sung cheh yuan one of the first military leaders to resist the japanese vng foccht against the japanese at hsifengkow in 1933 and there received his first wound his ripht leg was badly injured but after a few weeks he recovered and was nursing a deeper resentment than ever though he and the other chinese soldiers fought bravely the skilled and wellequipped enemy steadily encroached into chinese territory wang could not con ceal his sense of shame ov thk ntght of july 7 193 wang was on duty with his comrades just outside the great city of peiping which had been taken bv the japanese they were attacked and returned the fire and the great war officially began that first night wang was wounded twice but he fought courageously and after a brief convalescence he rejoined his regiment slowly the chinese armv was driven south but under sung chen yuan they fought with determination and in february 1s38 they won the first of chinas great victories at taierchwang and proved not only that the chinese could light but that they could sometimes win victories against overwhelming odds at taierchwang wang was severely wounded he lost one leg the other was injured and more terrible still he lost an eye for months he lay in the hospital suffering and wondering if there was any chance of ever again helping his people the thought which oppressed him most was that millions of chinese scarcely realized that their country- was being torn apart limb from limb if he could only walk again he might help to wake them up thfn one day a man came to the hospital and taught the crippled soldiers how to make crutches the thought came to wang that he might walk freely again and he made plans for the future his friends were amareri when they heard him and asked how can you travel with only one leg and one eye 7 ive cot my mouth left he quickly replied so horblinc alonc on crutches wang went from place to place telling his people the story of japanese atrocities and aggression in seven years he visited eight provinces and spoke hundreds of times his reputation spread and he delivered ad dresses in schools amusement places churches and in the open air anvwhere he could get an audience he became well known throughout china in november 1913 he was appointed to an important position by general feng yu hsiang and the crippled country boy became a national hero destined to play an imoortant part in the right for a free china ocr quotation today is by george ii- morrison cowrnge is not the absence of car but the conquest of it report from pffiemmemt by michael stair mp ontario hiding reports current on parlia ment hill indicate that by late summer not a single member of the federal cabinet will re tain a company

controversy which is still go ing strong is that dr mccann has decided to drop his direc torship quietly at the first mo ment which may be politically opportune unless unexpected developments occur in the house of commons this wont come about immediately the action will be taken probably after parliament has prorogued and the issue has been pushed to the sidelines to do anything about it at the
