the stouffville tribune established 1888 member of the canadian weekly newspaper association and ontario quebec newspapers association member of the audit bureau of circulations authorized as second class mall post office department ottawa issued every thursday at stouffville ontario in canada 5200 in usa 250 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments l reduce forest waste the canadian forestry association stresses how vital it is to the canadian economy that we give every possible protection of our forest resources it points out that our purchasing power abroad depends in large measure on the sale of wood and wood products for example canadas total exports in 1948 were valued at 3075000000 and onethird of these dollars came from the sale of forest products linking forest care with canadas preparedness pro gram the canadian forestry association says nothing can be more subversive to our nations de fence effort than reckless forest destruction every canad ian can help by using his or her influence in preventing forest fires which annually destroy enough merchantable timber to supply our pulp and paper industry for four months better methods of processing both in the forest and at the mill will need to be devised to overcome the loss from waste assessment and taxation assessment and taxation in the province of ontario are now being studied critically and in some cases severely criticized by rural property owners and municipal council lors the population of urban centres is spilling over into rural parts recreation areas are problem makers and social services are creating costs of which add up to a sizeable burden on the land protests are being voiced and commit tees are being organized to study the situation carefully and report their findings the development of the suburban areas is imposing heavy school taxes upon farm lands and the farmer it is claimed is paying much more than his fair share of the school taxes in other instances tourists and summer resi dents aije building 10000 homes which are assessed for 500 in which case roads used by the cottagers are paid for largely by farmers however the recent judgment set down on the appeal case of several york county townships including markham and whitchurch concerning their equalized assessment will only dump a heavier burden on smaller municipalities such as stouffville it is the contention of officials in these smaller muni cipalities that the farms in the locality are not too highly assessed when their selling value is taken into account has the crest been reached has sport reached the crest in a monetary way numerous signs seem to indicate that it has not that interest is declining it is probably greater now than ever before but some of the turnstile music has slowed down coming close to home exhibition hockey games to date have not drawn too large a turnout stouffville had a tri- county league championship baseball team this summer but at no time did the team receive the patronage it de served now we are on the threshold of another hockey season and it remains to be seen if the crowds that are expected will appear horse racing in canada and the united states has shown a decline in patronage and wagering it is believed major league baseball patronage was definitely much lower and there were even some unoccupied seats at the world series minor league baseball also has experienced a sharp decline in attendances just 10 days ago when ottawa and toronto met in a crucial interprovincial union rugby game there were over 5000 empty seats at varsity stadium in toronto hamilton has been the hotbed of rugby from time immemorial yet many times this year in the close rugby race the hamilton games have had vacant seats what is the explanation of this situation when work is plentiful and wages are high this may be the answer most sport like everything else costs more today when two people go together as so often is the case the total outlay runs into a fair sum there is- more sport now and the sport fan therefore can afford to be more choosy undoubtedly at times the weather is a factor and radio and television are deterrents especially in the united states but there is a feeling that the high cost of living is a great factor in canada in other words it is felt by many people that the dollars are needed more elsewhere now that the dollar doesnt go so far the fact that higher taxes are coming may also be making the average individual a little more cautious how far state ownership how far has government invaded the field of private business in canada how far does government plan to go what is the real and full cost to the taxpayer of gov ernment firms or government projects that compete with private industry those are questions which a lot of people in this coun try would like to see answered they will be if ottawa heeds the request of the canadian chamber of commerce for a full investigation into these fundamental matters at one time any schoolboy could trace the boundary between the field of government and that of private indus try he couldnt do that in canada today it would take an expert or several experts to find even an approximate line there has been steady encroachment on the part of government directly or indirectly into the fields of power transportation communications beverages grain handling export and scores of other undertakings and this drift has continued despite the fact that almost every government concerned has come out flatfooted against socialism and state control very obviously if something is not done to check this spread io redefine the limits of government in industry we are going to have socialism by default regardless of any finespun theory it is just not pos sible for private and state ownership to work together in the same industry on equal terms when government steps in ordinary competition steps out we have had all sorts of warning examples in the past it is about time that we heeded them about time that we canre out and stated definitely whether industry is going to be owned by people or by government financial post days of yore from the files of the stouffville tribune

miiltr high ways for parents only by nancy cleaver youk childs piano practice many outstanding musk- teach ers are agreed that the piano is an excellent choice of a musical instrument for a child harmony and melody can be made on the piano and before very long a student has the satisfaction of playing a tune by himself it is an excellent foundation for learnin to play other instruments later in life there is a wide choice of music for advanced students to meet every taste or mood piano music can add greatly to enjoy ment in the home without another musical instrument at the same time an able pianist may encour age family participation in singing of solos duets or as a group and may lie the centre around which a family orchestra is built in music for your child william krevit an experienced teacher makes some excellent practical suggestions to parents for success in the venture of their child learning to play the piano over and over again he stresses the importance of never forcing a child either to listen or participate in music this pressure produces a spirit p rebellion which destroys the attitude necessary for real music ho suggests that a child of average musical ability should start piano lessons between eight and ten because at that age he has sufficient coordination of mind eye ear and hand the piano itself should he as good a piano as the family can afford and should be kept in tune it should be placed in the room in a position where the lighting- is good so that the notes can be read without eye strain but it should not be beside a window where a childs interest will be constantly distracted by happenings he can see through the pane a child should have a regular period for practice which is not too long for sustained concentra tion twenty minutes to half an hour is long enough for most juniors the practice period should not interfere with the regular play time how can a mother expect tommy to practice wholeheart edly if his pals are out enjoying a game of baseball a child who is too tired cannot learn music or anything else practising should never be used as a punishment if it is music will soon become not only a burden but actually hated by a child money bribes for practising for a definite length of time are not a good plan but a natural reward for acquiring a certain degree of proficiency would be to attend a good concert playing the piano or any other instrument develops habits of regular concentration technical skill and the imagination it is an emotional outlet the ability to play far outstrips the enjoyment of passively listening to music a boy or girl who plays well should does not affect ordinary lights is it necessary to purchase diff erent light bulbs when a change over is made from 25 to go cycle current this is but one of many ques tions hydro technicians are fre quently called upon to answer in connection with the present fre quency standardization- program now underway in the 25cycle areas of southern ontario v commenting on these questions hydro chairman robert h saun ders pointed out that such elec trical appliances and equipment as common incandescent lamps toas ters heaters or stove elements are not affected by the higher cycle he added that the governing principle of such appliances was their resistance to the flow of cur rent which caused them to give off light or heat the frequency or cycle of the current is not a factor in the operation of common lamps or space heaters for example the filament of the ordinary light bulb used in most households consists of a wire which offers resistance to the oas- sage of electrical current this resistance causes the wire to be come white hot thereby throw- be given the opportunity to play j ing out a brilliant white light occasionally for a visitor or guest the hotter the wire becomes the and to play at a concert this brighter is the light plan promotes in a child a sense of accomplishment and adds greatly to the popularity of an adolescent or adult witli a group the creation of music gives a great many people pleasure long fellow called it the universal language of mankind music knows no barriers of race or
