ju ttomu auoc editor what geese is it wont be long until wild ducks and geese begin to number themselves across our skies southernbound on this seasonal subject a little lad writing an essay for his teacher outdid himself with the following offering geese is a low heavy set bird which is mostly meat and feathers his head sits on one side and he sits on the other geese cant sing much on account of dampness of the moisture he aint got no between- thetoes and hes got a little baloon in his stummick to keep from sinking some geese when they get big has curls on their tails and is called ganders ganders dont halt to sit and hatch but just eat and loaf and go swimming if i was a goose id rather be a gander action too little and too late reeve elmer daniels made a very significant com ment at the last council meeting which passed by council with very little attention he stated that time was fast running out for doing any sidewalk work in town this year it would appear that there has been little combined effort made to have sidewalk work done this year which means that double the amount will be needed next year while there is still time there is little action taking place once again citizens who attend the many functions at the fine new high school as well as the students who must go there each day appear destined to stumble along over coarse gravel and cinders and play tag with the cars on the muddy road leading to the school the high school is a public building and even if no homes existed on the street one should at least expect a sidewalk we agree that the home owners on the street will benefit and should contribute this sidewalk is a necessity and should not be delayed be cause of bickerings between ratepayers and the muni cipality serving your community municipal elections throughout the district will be taking place in less than three months and it is not too early for ratepayers to be giving some thought to this important business undoubtedly municipal elec tions this year will create more than ordinary interest due to the large increase in the number of voters and the growing perplexity of municipal problems due to the rapid development of the whole suburban area in richmond hill stouffville in markham and whitchurch townships there are thousands of new residents who will be exercising their municipal fran chise in their new homes for the first time all are vitally interested in municipal government as the great majority are homeowners with a stake in the com munity municipalities in this district have been fortunate in that through the years they have enjoyed good municipaj administration the best possible guarantee of continued efficiency in municipal government is the active interest of the ratepayers with so many new residents in the area and so many major developments underway it is very likely that some of the new citizens some representatives of the newly developed areas will seek places on municipal councils and school boards this is as it should be and we hope that new citizens willjiot be backward inoffering their services on public bodies too often new candidates decide on nomination day to contest an office and learn to their sorrow that the job of getting known and getting elected in a municipality is a bigger undertaking than was anti cipated those who are interested in offering themselves for municipal office or for positions on school boards- would be well advised to make plans well in advance of nomination day in fact its not too early now to make any such intentidns through the press and in this regard we assure you we will be most cooperative if you are interested in offering your services in pub lic office whether it be for municipal council or school trustee we suggest you make your intentions known as soon as possible once a candidate has announced his or her intentions through the press the way is open for friends neighbors ratepayers associations or kind red organizations to press the claims of their candidate for the support of the people of the whole community administration of municipal affairs is important business in any community in communities such as richmond hill and surrounding municipalities the ad ministration of municipal and school affairs takes on added importance due to the growth and development now under way it is important to the future welfare of the district that our public servants be men and women of ability and vision the liberal telephone call brings a prayer a telephone call to liberty 11311 in cleveland will bring a oneminute recorded

time and during the last cen- tury some of the important ones have been first noticed by amateurs especially in the country or at the lake or sea shore where no electric lights dim their brightness on any clear night the stars shine down in aii their beauty some 9000 stars can be seen with the naked eye ail over the earth throughout a whole year but only 2500 to 3000 stars can be sefn with the un- aided eye in any place at one time telescopes have been used for iess than five centuries star gazers can find out a great cieai about the heavenly bodlei with ust their two eyes the indians used to test the eyesight of their children by- pointing out the second star in the handle of the big dipper and see if they noticed that there was a tiny star beside the main star a little rider on the back they called it like many other races they often called the big and little dipper big bear bear astronomers lra minor and crsa major and use latin names for many of the constellations it is fun to look at the stare or the moon through good herd glasses but it is much more ex citing to have the privilege to view them through a telescope in most areas some amateur astronomer owns a telescope and is glad to allow another star enthusiast to catch a glimpse of the heavens through its lenses observatories are stationed in definite places and are usu ally open to the public at stated times a visit to a planatarium like the one in chicago is in deed a high occasion a glimpse into the wonder and the majesty of the night skies simple star maps are inex- by xancy cleaver a reai find for star

arna bontemps a negro teacher in virginia usa wrote a book for his people entitled we have tomorrow 11 was widely read as it deserves to be it was good reading for anybody bontemps reviewed the lives of scores of negroes who had made good in the best sense of that word his main contention was that the future held great opportunities the injustices of yesterday should be forgotten as water that has gone under the bridge ijnioucht it was a good book and i agree with the author that much as we define people of yesterday it is the present and the future with which we have to deal let us forgive and forget the past 1 we have tomorrow many of us think of heroes of yesterday and the struggles in which they tool part forgetting that each day presents a challenge and an opportunity it is a great mistake to think that all the romance and adventure is over actually the events of everyday life are just as exciting if we have eyes to see it a young man once called on bishop phillips brooks the famous boston preacher the bishop talked of the great days of the past of stirring times when the nation was young and grow ing and every new day brought its adventure the youth was thrilled as he heard of brave men who held their lives lightly if only liberty and truth prevailed to the bishop he said i wish i had lived in those faroft days i think i too could have been a hero then the bishop said something very wise and true my bo he said every age brings its opportunity and it you cannot be a hero now you would not have been a hero then somehow the past with its adventures and fierce struggles seems so wonderful to us that we find it hard to believe anything happening in our day is important or interesting but it is there is an old proverb distant field look green strange to say this saying is very much like one written thousands of years ago and found in the bible wisdom is before him that hath understanding but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth years ago a sunday school was established on the outskirts of a large and growing city the school like some other causes in the community had quite a hard time in the beginning the people were so busy building their homes arranging for streets and drainage for firehouscs and postal delivery and a score of other things that while there were many children eager to attend sunday school there were not sufficient teachers in the community there was a welleducated young man who wa keen to go to africa as a missionary he had read of livingstone and many others who had gone there and he could recite from memory the story of their hardships and thrilling exploits several times he was approached and asked to teach in the sunday school but he was not intereseted his mind was on africa and of the needs of those neglected and ignorant people to the boys and girls who were running the streets of his own district he was more or less indifferent not long ago the man died he never went to africa and he never realized that he could have been a missionary right at home there have peen great heroes in faroff time but there are equally great heroes today there have been occasions in history when it seemed as if evil would prevail over goodness but brave men stood out boldly for righteousness and truth who will deny that there are forces of evil today which must be checked and overthrown
