Their work was inspired by the re­ cent appeal of Highways Minister Hon. T. B. McQuesten for a province­ wide decline in highway fatalities and injuries during May and June as a tribute to King George and Queen Elizabeth while they are visiting Can­ ada. Statistics of the accident recording division of the highways department revealed that unless every motor ve­ hicle operator and every pedestrian in Ontario joined in the current accident prevention plan, some 2,000 people might be prevented from seeing Their Majesties and taking part in the cele­ brations connected with the Royal tour. Records showed that an average of 100 persons lost their lives each year during this period, and 1,900 others were injured — many of them incap­ acitated for lengthy periods. Theoma- jority of these accidents, it was point­ ed out, were classed as “preventable” and could be avoided in 1939 by the elimination of three fundamental but easily corrected accident causes — momentary inattention, impatience and excessive speed. much enjoyed.

Dear .Maitland, queen of rippling streams; Thou fount of early boyhood dreams, Where oft I swam in youthful glee, Or fished thy nooks; as suited me. Once more I greet thy rippling tide; Thy verdant banks I sit beside. My bared feet stem thy waters clear; While memory comes with yotith to cheer. Long years; wide space, our friend­ ship spoiled As mid strange climes and streams I toiled. But let me whisper in your ear; As on your banks, I linger near. They may boast, of their Souris, Peace, and Red; I’ll still place the wreath upon thy head. Shy fishes still haunt thy stoney deep, While the swallows thy glinting sur­ face sweep. The quaint old cedar, as of yore, Keeps vigil on her native shore; While hidden ’neath this sheltered nook, The timid trout snatch swiftly at the angler's hook. How wondrous that in the lapse of years, Your life not torn with hopes and fears, Flows peacefully onward with undim­ med joy; Like as I knew you when a boy. Flow on, dear Maitland, within thy quest, To Mess mankind is thy behest. My times are ordered, I bid adieu; A long farewell I leave with you; Business and Professional Directory Wellington Mutual Fire Insurance Co. Established 1840.
