"5 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1960 Still the big reason why tourists BEAUTY, BALLYHOO CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3 but with Indians peeping over fences the chil. dren get frightened." But the embattled Indians have apparently won out against the paleface critics of their Indian Camp and will continue. The tourists may be frightened by the vells of the Indians and the war-paint and head-dresses, but gladly pay a dollar at the turnstiles to see them at closer quarters, Don Hurley, local florist, left his flower and bridal bouquet arranging, to plan a Niagara Storybook Land, This has huge 12 feet high storybook characters at unexpected spots along nature trails on a 26-acge site, Visiting youngs- ters can picnic to nursery rhyme music and ride in electric cars, on ponies or on a minia- ture railway train, Every few minutes a helicopter can be seen hovering over Queen Victoria Park and the falls, Paul Ostrander, 35-year-old Hamil 'tonian, former RCAF pilot, paid $30,000 for a secondhand 'copter and now takes people up at five dollars w head, Honeymooners can hold hands over the Falls now instead of standing in the spray and watching them, The Falls View Observation Tower and Burning Spring, highest spot for observation of the Falls, has pulled a switch, While you are up there, you can go down a replica of a Canadian mine and see minerals being mined in a most realistic manner--providing you pay a dollar, Niagara Falls, famed for years as a place where honeymooners could enjoy quiet, even amongst the thousands of tourists, has found that every visitor -- just married or with a family -- will spend dollars if the attractions are provided, Alderman A. J. McKinley, city councillor, said at a meeting in August "unless steps are taken to limit the number of signs being erected the city could take on a honky-tonk ap. pearance," He suggested control of the number and size of signs to prevent a repetition of the "honky-tonk conditions" in Niagara Falls, New York, More important, motel operators who have invested thousands of dollars are wondering whether Niagara Falls will develop into a gigantic midway as everyone jumps on the gimmick wagon, How much the tourists spend this year on the attractions already provided will prob- ably decide whether Niagara Falls relies on natural beauty or modern day attractions to lure tourists, At the moment everyone seems undecided, ONTARIO TODAY at? QUIET MAN CONTINUED FROM Pace 10 over by his son-in-law, But he still goes home to the farm every week- end, And he still retains, and always will, the earthy touch, For ten years he occupied the post of Minister of Welfare, He started out in this portfolio unob- trusively but with the years sold himself more and more both to Mr. Frost and to the members of the house generally, Came 1955 and the premier moved him into Municipal Affairs to reorganize this key department, A year later he was moved again, The same job was required in Agri- culture, x For nearly four years nc he reorganization of this department and of the farm policies of the province has been underway, There have been two great prob- lems to be met in this department, One has been the growth of market. ing -- necessary, but also carrying potential dangers, The second has been the changing trend in farming from the small unit to the larger or "corporate" farm -- also ne- cessary but carrying with it inci. dental stresses and even tragedies, It is a measure of Ontario's Agriculture Minister that he has been willing to meet these problems, On marketing, particularly, he has exposed himself to rabid criticism by undertaking to hold down the ambitious leadership of the hog producers. His fourth floor office in the east block at Queen's Park is one of the coolest and airiest spots in Toronto, It overlooks the peaceful lawns and flower-beds of the park in Queen's Park Crescent, And when you enter it the man behind the desk is almost invariably as cool and as peaceful as the office itself, He discusses his problems frankly but with the slow, quiet confidence of an old hand who has learned that bad things and bad times are never quite so hopeless as they may seem, and that there inevitably will be change though it is seldom either good or lasting if it is brought in overnight, visit Niagara Falls PAGE TWENTYY THREE Trial Package FLAVOURED CHILDREN'S SIZE ASPIRIN I ™, 0s ---- THIAL = Fe = E B12€ FLAVOURED Children's s Size ASPIRIN I ON fylsalicylic Acid Tabl cetylsalicylic Aci oles |, | atu Hi ; 3 i ) ") Genie.
