big and little are for the small man The Printed Word which can be addressed at either of Can adas two largest cities is also for the small town the bulletin claims The small town has practical evon essential merit for the preserva Man of Canada This is entirely aside from the sentimental attachment for ones childhood haunts and the charin of treelined street in village The very small village probably hasnt grown bit since the motor vehicle in creased the mobility of people living in villages and farms Offsetting some of the trend toward the really big cities has been the estab lishment in big towns and smaller cities of retail establishments selling goods of kind and quality thatformerly might ha been available only in the largest stores and exclusive shops But there is an offsetting threat to the smaller communities and regrettable trend in concentration of industry within ten or twenty miles of the Montreal or Toronto city halls This trend is due to the determined effort of the labor un ion leaders rather than the labor union members to obtain the identical wages andworking conditions in community of 10000 to 20000 people that prevail and perhaps justifiably prevail in the great metropolises The unions refuseto recognize that man with decent job in town easily can live on lower wages as well as or better than his city brethren work go home to lunch and ill so in clined get in game of gait between quitting time and dusk Or he can go fishing He doesnt spend twentyfive per cent of his day away from home in the more Job of getting to and from his job He has better house for less money He can have larger lot on which his house is built And the social life Ls at least as good as in the city still despite small town vantages the majority oflndus trial workers seem to prefer city life and so keep the cities growing The employer in small town has cer tain disadvantages to overcome In some kinds of business if he is in small town his customers in other communities par ticularly the cities are suspicions that his product is not as good as that pro duced in the city That is only minor sales problem Another disadvantage is that the operation if part of large en terprise suffers from decentralization This has advantages in some industries but distinct disadvantages in others The unions for reasons apparently not sound have argued through the years for in dustrywide bargaining In recent case construction firm which operates or has been operating 11 different plants across the country has been told by the unions that conditions in one communitY are the same as in another But this it can be said flatly is not solAnd persist ent success in th gument will result Jnrturtber corneatrationmLJndustry in the biggest centres and not in places like

age It is asked with his fond expectation that one will underestimate his age There are many such persons cherishing the illusion that they look younger than their years The Cape Breton Post has found Whenlthe question is asked the suns ance is directed not so much at the ques tioner as at oneself There comes an un tidy feeling of being flatter One wont say what he bclieves to be the truth It comes of wanting tohei sustain another persons pleasure in himself One doesnt wish to attack happy personal illusions But its poppycook this desperate cul tivation of youth after youth has gone this placing of youth on pedestal this whistlinginthedark assertion that you are as young as you feel when the fact is that sometimes feelings are the biggest of illusions What this youthvauntimg continent of North America needs the writer believes SEPTEMBER 1940 The Barrie Examiner told of the big old water tank was thing of the past Quite gap in the landscape is noticeable no near the CNR roundllouse Aliandale The tank which stood just east of the coal hoist was pulled down as it was no longer needed since the new water main was laid to link up the three hydrants with the remaining tank standing south of the YMCA The foundation of the east tank was laid about 36 years ago but was not built on until later The tank broke several years af terward but was replaced The water supply was pumped from the bay by electric power very successful and enjoyable piano and vocal recital by pupils of Miss Eva Rumble ATCM of Hillsdale was held at Craigllursi Hull lwith the stage beautifully decorated with baskeis of flowers making lovely setting for the talented and charming boys and girls Those presented in piano numbers solo and duet were Marjorie McLean Dorothy Duns more and Edith MdLeau all of

grow old grace fully fewer people going around asking one to guess their ages and so convinced that one will tell 11b to help to sustain pet vanity Recently when an old timer told or memory he was cautioned that he ought to keep it secret that he ought not to let on that he was living so long ago How preposterous to pretend that one has no deep memories nor storehouse of rich experiences Theres little use in living long unless the whole of experience figures in the person one has become The youth vanity begins very young nowadays It accounts for the reluctance of adolescents to grow up and for the unwillingness of many young people to be grown up after they have reached physical maturity The writer concludes in bygone centurieswhen the average of lifetime wssbrlefer young men were eager to take on the full stature of mat urity lit they were to succeed this side of the grave they had to be quick about it News olrlormver Years Brock Evelyn Baker Jean McMaster of Craig hurst and Lois

Premier Bennett is older lle celebrated his 60th birthday yesterdayand more experienced and more astute than his rivals leading the other three parties He is colorful politicianyappea ing as campaigner and imagi ative in governing Above all he has glowing record of eight successful years as premier These factors have combined to give him the confidence to chal lenge the CCF on this basis
