our editorial comment new inventions this is a pushbutton age we push a button to ring a bell sum mon an elevator open doors start powerful machinery bring light into darkened quarters and a score of other things are set in motion by the simple act of pushing a button not so very long ago pushbutton toothpaste joined the ranks of the many products we buy nowadays and use simply by pushing a button a most convenient way of getting things done but dont look beneath the button because what you learn may come as a shock and a revelation this is especially true of pushbutton dispensers of heavier products like toothpaste while they work efficient ly to a point some models appear to be very wasteful as a prying off of the pushbutton will reveal a good weeks supply of dentifrice will be found in the bottom of some of these dispensers because the mechan ism fails to eject the last halfinch give or take a little of toothpaste in the can handy but wasteful at least until perfected arent they lindsay post part of the food cost if we are not aware of the inter dependent nature of the nations eco nomy we might give it a bit of thought the next time we go into a supermarket to do a bit of shopping notice how prices are going up ward well dont blame it all on the supermarkets thomas g mccor- mack president of dominion stores limited told shareholders at the companys annual meeting that retail food prices are affected not only by rising costs within the industry but any rise in almost any major com modity increases in labor costs steel prices freight rates and many other economic factors find their way into the retail cost of food it may be difficult to associate a boost in steel prices with higher cost of food since it is difficult to think of steel in terms of what we eat one apparent connection of course is in the realm of tinned goods the con tainer is part of the purchase price and if it costs more to make the con tainer the socalled tin can is made of thinlyrolled steel dipped in tin well the consumer has to dig deeper into his pocket steel prices also hit the food budget in other ways when steel prices go up the farmers have to pay more for their farm equipment truckers pay for their vehicles cost factors rise in rail transportation boosting the demand for higher freight rates other rising costs which enter into chain of production and distribution also strike into the consumers food budget and as mr mccormack says there are few major commodities that do not have an in fluence on the food market many give plug for small town many have been the articles written on the subject of the small town versus the city and last week tlfe editor of the elmira sigrct added a little more weight on behalf of the small town what our elmira publisher points out is just as true in stouff ville or any small town throughout the country city dwellers have made the following observations ive met more people in the two months ive been living here than i met in toronto in two years the main advantage in living in a small town is that awful tension is gone it cant be understood unless you have ex perienced it its such a strain you just live on your nerves the signet goes on to say an analysis of the above statement proves it is more advantageous for either young or old to live in a small town than in a large city providing one is seeking happiness rather than greater materialistic gains small towns provide the nucleus of the essentials for the building of fine character and fine canadians consider the advantages of a family in a small town over one in a city they arise can eat an unhurried breakfast and proceed to the schools offices or places of work in from five to fifteen minutes from the time they leave their homes usually on foot coming and going to and from home they meet many friends and neighbors with whom they have much in common pick up their mail 3o a bit of shopping en route enjoy ing gods great outdoors and breath ing fresh clean air usually they can come home for a hot lunch or dinner at the noon hour again enjoying the companionship of those about them no racing to catch street cars or buses inhaling gas laden air or push ing and jostling among the crowds recreation facilities especially here in stouffville are as good as any major city there are other recrea tion facilities too not found in the heart of a large city because five minutes in a car or even on foot takes one to the great outdoors for picnics etc a short exhilarating walk takes one to the tennis courts the ball park the hockey match the swimming pool with no hours of time wasted getting there or coming home ah yes to the visitor in a small town who says what do you ever find to do in this place most mem bers of the community can look upon him with a superior stare knowing there is always something to do in a p small town and it is usually done un hurriedly yet at a steady pace with none of the tensionridden ulcer- making nervewracking backstab bing manner found in the cities laff of the week from the tribune files from the tribune july 15 1926 people lined the street along the route the oldest man in the at the aurora flower show held last

neighbors mr john brownsbergcr the sale price is 6200 mr warriner acquired the property about two years ago and had lived on it since that time a heavy downpour of rain passed over this location on fri day just in time to save the crops from serious drought fol lowing several days of extreme hot weather despite the big crowd in town ior the twelfth of july not more than 175 people came by train according to the railway rec ords it was a day for motor cars and this led many of the visitors to bring their own lunch baskets between fifty and seventyfive applications for the position of teacher of third book work on the staff of stouffville public school are in the hands of the school board who will select an applicant this week in spite of lowering skies and a heavy downpour of rain on monday morning which lasted until nearly noon the memory of the battle of the boyne fought in ireland away back 836 years ago and which gave religious freedom to the empire was gloriously celebrated parade was james chambers of cannington who had reached his 90th birthday and had been an orangeman for 68 years on the other hand the youngest walker was kenneth stewart aged 5 years son of mr adam stewart of uxbridge township editors mail wroxeter ont july 9 1958 editor the tribune dear sir i would like to have the privi lege of saying my say on as pects of that revealing editorial in the current tribune giving chapter and verse to show how and why contract farming keeps spreading i note espe cially that it ties farming in with big business operation and it has come about largely as the result of the costprice squeeze making things difficult for the producer and finally this trend makes it diffi cult for the small independent producer to operate at a profit and survive especially if hes inefficient it becomes clearer as the years pass that mechanized ag riculture is making yards here in north america at least in one respect namely that the average primary one would find the reason why the mass migration of rural youth to the pavements has been almost enthusiastically ap proved by the economic and po- litical leadership of the united states and canada apparently one of the unlookedfor fruits of this green revolution is that the farmer is determined to get his fair share of the national income and is using some of his new leisure to look into his marketing mechanism and go after a more appropriate slice of the urban food dollar personally i cant see how he can suffer the loss of much of his historic independence by as one columnist describes it acting like a businessman in the marketplace luck to him and to his work- trained family most of whom have been too long on a low- wage or nowage operating lev el city reader once a dawntodark farm boy nn itc just realized that i can na tanccr bra an what im wrtm wrong number did you ever get the wrong number on the phone of course you have and it was a test of your patience and still more a test for the other person you have called him to the phone maybe he was busy he finds hes not the man you want how is he going to react he doesnt know who you are and you dont know who he is you are like ships that pass in the night and neither need be identified you apologize i hope he may be gracious or he may be peeved and unpleasantly sarcastic and hang up with a growl if it is a lady youve called your chances of a courteous reply are better although i wouldnt say one hundred per cent but it is an interesting situation we are all more or less sensitive to public opinion and we often behave decently because we have a reputation to live up to but here we are on our own with no reputation at stake a lady once told me that her idea of a gentleman was one who used the butter knife when he was eating alone i have been known to forget it even when we had company but that is a digression it seems to me that when people go abroad they reveal their real selves it is well known that some thoroughly good citizens in their own town or village act differently when they are in a different setting there is an incident in the early chapters of the bible which tells of how moses committed a very rash act he saw a hebrew being lashed by an egyptian in a moment of furious rage he killed the aggressor and hid his body in the sand but before he did we read he looked this way and that way and when he saw there was no man he slew the egyptian so for the time being at least he felt he could get away with it he was unnoticed i suppose we are all as good as we are when no one is looking most of us have a good deal of regard for prevailing i standards and we are anxious not to offend or do things iribad taste the late dr george morrison a glasgow preacher be lieved that peter would not have denied jesus in the courtyard had there been any friends there but he was terribly alone and in abject misery so largely because he was unobserved he denied his master he probably would not have done it if john or thomas or any of the other disciples had been in the courtyard i once read that figures about young men and women moving to large centres every year to make the city their home is enormous all our cities have similar influxes now in the villages from which they come or the farms they were well- known and that fact itself was a salutary influence in the city of the thousands who pass they know none it is to say the least a real trial a few years ago j a r cairns a famous london magis trate tried to describe his emotions when he arrived in london from a tiny village in england he wrote it was like getting a douche of cold water in the face i never felt so utterly insignificant in my life i thought no one knew me and nobody cared that was an experience that would be paralleled by thousands to be utterly alone and on ones own no doubt brings a measure of freedom but it also has its perils the truth is that we are just what god sees us to be and what we know ourselves to be in reality we always have an audience perhaps tomorrow some person with a raucous voice may get your number by mistake what will you say heres hoping our quotation today is from the old testament quietness and in patience possesses ye your souls in for and about teenagers growing up is often a tiring task very often parents will com plain that john and mary their teenage children are too lazy to breathe this complaint is often accompanied by the obser vation that their children seem to spend every minute that they are not engaged in sports spraw led on beds chairs or couches parents have
