who were reelected on june 27th such as bob mcgregor in east york stand to draw 8000 in sessional indemnities on top of this they will receive the 2000 expense allowance thus getting paid off at the rate of 10000 which to use the current expression aint hay wrong emphasis students often seem to forget that their main purpose in going to school is to receive an education sports activity is healthful and beneficial of course but it should not be allowed to obscure the real class room objective football in particular has become such a spectacle that it is not hard to understand why some people think it is the main project of the day high school students in hazelton penn who went out on strike because of the abolition of football are a little bit mixed up when they parade reading no sports no school sports are still the sideline giving up football is admittedly drastic but it is no reason to stop studying the best way would be to try to work out some sort of a compromise perhaps staging the sport on a curtailed basis boston post newmarket wins honors we extend congratulations to the newmarket era- express on winning second prize in the cwna news papers competition for best editorial page being surpassed only by the midland expressharold published in a larger town the newmarket paper was given the david williams memorial cup which they will hold for one year as a mark of their fine work for best allround paper in this class the highest number of points went to the chilliwack bc progress while newmarket scored 72 staying well up in the list of 50 or 60 competitors the tribune which holds the cup for best allround paper in ontario and quebec in towns of 1500 or less in the competition conducted by the ontarioquebec division did not enter the larger field the publishers feel that because of their large circulation they are confined to a competition with only very large towns where it is possible to produce a paper which a village the size of stouffville could hardly measure up to however some day the publishers may reverse this decision as we did back in 1938 when we stood third for best front page however our paper was in competition in the class circulation 1000 to 2000 now with nearly 3000 we are not eligible for that class and would be in competition as we say with the larger towns only throughout canada forbid city boys playing with time it is surely high time that parliament should take some action to prevent interference with standard time we have a spectacle of the need for this right now after putting up with socalled fast time all summer the government for the city of toronto proceeds to extend fast time for no good reason fast time is credited with saving hydro but nobody has been able to prove that and hydro officials have made statements in the past jusl last year when toronto offered to change to fast time that they could see no saving here in the country children must rise at 5 in the morning standard time in order to get ready for school they are on the road before daylight and if you ever had any experience in getting children up at such an hour and starting them off in the cold gray dawn you will know what you are forcing on the rural districts by interfering with standard time toronto may say the country folk need not follow their way of living but the country cannot ignore the city time the- city is big milk must be delivered on time and to their liking and with the two times standard and fast there is always a perfect muddle hence the country very well has to submit to the dictates of the city if the dominion government would enact a law that would stop the boys down at the city hall from playing around with old father time everybody would be very happy perhaps the law might permit a summer change story for grandchildren a young pilot went up from barksdale field la the other day in a jet fighter plane and at 10000 feet flew into a storm- he prepared to bail out unhooked his belt and was sucked swiftly out of the cockpit the plane going from under him at 350 miles an hour crashed far below the pilot floated down by chute and landed in the branches of a tree this incident in the life of an aviator will soon be forgotten by the world but quite properly may endure as a family anecdote a century ago the fortyniners travelled west by wagon cart and pack mule and about half a century ago those same pioneers told stories to their grand children so we were awakened in the dead of night by the yell of indians among our horses and i climbed out of the wagon with my rifle crept a hundred yards through the camp walked into a redskin we fought and i killed him then what did you do grandpa oh i just went back to sleep and thats what young major charles cole of barks- dale field

hollywood and bricklaying picture proceeded it is a pity that this little incident was not included in the picture as it might have provided a comic interlude but my friend says that such incidents
