Its vantage points — on the Rainbow Bridge overlooking Niagara's cataracts and . the Lewiston - Queenston Bridge overlooking the world's great- est concentration of hydro-ele.c- trie power—"have special mean- ing this year. Canada and the U.S. are pre- paring to celebrate 150 years of peace and friendship. The flagstaffs are located at two -of the most-crossed paints in the continent-wide unforti- fled border that dates to 'the end of War of 1812. Treaty Signed The 150th anniversary of the peace treaty whidh ended the war and the subsequent end of hostilities will be marked in December and January. The treaty was signed ,at Ghent in Belgium 'on Christmas Eve, 1814. A last battle was fought before word of the successful negotiations reached the New World—the battle of New Or- leans January 8, 1815. Location of the U.N. flag at Niagara Falls is symbolic of the efforts to insure world peace and understanding be-• tween . nations, Each set of 'three flags is used as a photographic back- ground by thousands of visitors to the area. The background is enhanced on 'the Rainbow Bridge by the Falls and on the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge by the Robert Moses and Sir Ad- am Beck power plants in the United States and Canada. 0 Auburn datives Attend Funeral hi Flint, Mich a AUBURN — Relatives from this district attended the fun- eral of Mrs. William Coates at Flint, Mich., last week.

Parkinson's Law states that work is extended to fulfill the time available to, complete it. In modern business might we say that man's desire is de- veloped to surpass his ability to satisfy it? • I wonder if we might clas- sify people according to the parable of the Good Samaritan? Let. us first consider the rob- bers. They undoubtedly felt that what's yours is mine and I'll take it. They found the "cer- tain man" at -a disadvantage, beat him up, took his posses- sions and left him to live or die as the case might be. We don't have highway rob- bers now but there is still some of this element around in the person of bank robbers or thugs on a dark street, However there are more refined ways of bring- ing about the same results. Interest rates are a subtle and acceptable method. If you are a farmer and have enough security you can borrow cap- ital at five percent. If your security is a bit light you can borrow from mortgage ;comp- anies , at '71/2 percent. If you are still less secure you can go to finance companies and may have to go to; 25 or 30 percent. You won't get beaten up physically but financially you can be left destitute. The second group is repre- sented by the priest. I'm sure this doesn't apply to our min- isters or priests 'of the present day but 'this type of person is still around. He, has accumulat- ed a good deal of wealth and feels what's mine is mine and I'll keep it. • He probably feels that the Samaritan simply got what was coming to 'him for letting the robbers take him at a disadvantage. While he does- n't approve of the robbers he probably does believe quite strongly in survival of the fittest. The Levite is quite close to the priest but he does have some sympathy. He doe's look at ,the injured man. He un- doubtedly says, to himself, "Too bad about that poor man. If I could I'd like to help him but I just don't have any spare money and besides • I'm in a hurry; After all I worked for fry money and I'm going to keep it." The Priest and the Levite represent 'the good respectable people who pay their way and provide for the needs of their families. Then comes the Samaritan. He is the ordinary "Joe". He hasn't too Much or too' little: He gives the first aid accord- ing to his ability. I'm quite Sure 'the SaMaritan, didn't like to walk but he walked and put the stranger on a donkey: Ile didn't have' a 'lot but he pre- vided care for the needy. I Wonder how Much the giving of the ",two pence" lowered- the Samaritan's standard of living!

Highway 21 to the. W. A. Si-matter Pen Company of Canada iiimited plant here, was outlined recently to. Town Council. B, M. Ross, consulting eng- ineer for the town, gave de- tails of the proposed project. to council. He said 90 percent of the cost of the project would be paid by the Ontario Depart- ment of Highways although the two-lane section of Highway S. lies entirely within Goderich Town limits. Lacks Approy41 The project still lacks final approval of 'the town and the Department of Highways. Mr. Ross said a recent traffic count on 'the section designated for widening showed am ;average of 3,600 cars used it each day. Peale days reached a traffic volume of 5,000 cars, and with- in a few years, he said, 8,000 oars a day would be using the road. Included in the $322,000 cost of widening is provision of storm sewers and sidewalks where necessary. large number of the very poor? Can we have an extremely rich nation unless there are several poor nations? We supposedly have taken a step past extreme capitalism and are moving toward social- ism. It seems to me that there is a further step to be taken—co- aperativisan. This is the spirit practiced by the Samaritan. It might even call for some- low- ering of our so-called "standard of living". Just what is this "standard of living?" Is it to be measur- ed in terms of the accumula- tion of possessions or in terms of the welfare of men? Let's say with the "Good Samaritan"—"What's mine is yours 'so I'll share it". a Apple Day At RCAF i The First Clinton (RCAF) Group of Cubs and Scouts raised $105.00 during Apple Day this year.
