Premier at pipeline ceremonies in his lap„ it was quite ,obyions that he enjoyed this: Part of the ceremony much mete than the shovel Work performed before a laege crowd at pert Blake, Friday. Whtle some would perhaps frown at the Premier's "playe ing'! on a belldezer at some official ceremonies, his actions Friday Were certainly in keep- ing with the proceedings. The grptuide were filled with officials from LontiOn„ the two governmepts, area _municipali- ties and other bediee, but Ming- ling with them were holtdayere in shorts and bathing suits, kide leading dogs pest the micro-, phones and' workmen who were eady to take over on the bull- dozer trent the premier. 144, it was almost acarniveietellePe phere for one of the largest undertakings imewn throughout the world in water With the blue of Lake Huron acting as a backdrop for the one-hour ceremony at the site of the main treatment and intake plant, Premier Robarts termed the project a "very logical" attempt to meet the problems of an inadequate supply of water for Western O titer i o—which, despite the fact it is surrounded by water, has a shortage. Premier Roberts was assis- ted at the ceremony by Hon. C. S. MacNaughton ' Huron MPP and minister of highways. The careers of both men are similar in the fact that both served for a term on the Ontario Water Resources Commission, It is the OWRC who will design, build and finance the entire project. Mr. MacNaughton noted the project was important to Huron, but more so to the rest of On- tario, "It's a brand new concept," he said. "It's bold, imaginative and, what's more important, it's sensible. We have a fresh, pure water supply available to other parts of the province." SILENCE IS GOLDEN "....Some people come here thinking they are some special creation and they forget all about their constituencies, but those people do not stay here for long, and during my time have seen a lot of them leave. Mind you, they were a lot smart- er men than I and could make wonderful speeches, but when it came down to solid facts they forgot all about the people who elected them. They did not pay any attention to their mail. I have seen fellows with mail piled a foot deep on their desks and who thought all they had to do was get up in the house and make a speech. More people talked themselves out of this house than talked themselves into it, and I would suggest to the younger members of the house that if you want to stay here, don't talk too often and then they don't know how stupid you are. That is the reason why I have stayed here so long. "When this flag issue first came up I thought the Prime Minister would at least give us a choice. I am sure hundreds of designs were submitted to him, as they were to all of us, but in my opinion he picked the one that was the least attractive. Had he gone to the Indians or Eskimos I am sure he would have found an artist among them who could have drawn a better flag than he produced. Starting next week, Trivitt Memorial Anglican Church will inaugurate a g 'Mid-week Church School" for public school aged children, Classes will be held from 4:15 to 5:00 p.m. each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Rev. J. P. Gandon, rector of the church, explained that it has long been his feeling that children cannot receive the amount of church teaching they need in the half-hour during Sunday School. This conviction was endorsed by many in the congregation during last fall's ((Partnership in the Gospel" program and the instruction to start next week is the result of this feeling. "These m id-week classes are not a substitute for Sunday School," Rev. Gandon stated. They provide an additional op- portunity for children to be taught the Christian Faith, and children will be expected to attend Sunday school as well." Children in public school grades one and two will have their classes on Thursdays and will be taught by Mrs. Gandon; grades three and four meet on Wednesday under the leadership of Mrs. IL D. Page; and Rev. Gandon will teach the grade seven students. This class will become the junior confirmation class and will include students in grade eight who have not been confirmed. Another change in the Chris- tian education program at Triv- itt Memorial is in the staff of the senior Sunday school. Mr. and Mrs. B. H. Lindsey have moved to London, and their places will be taken by R. L McDowell and Mrs. Max Har- ness. Norman Hackney, Harold Har- ness, Ray Smith and Clarence McDonald, John L.

He should take a second look at this matter. I believe he acted like a school teacher when he said, 'Either you pass this flag or you don't get any summer holiday.' You cannot talk to grown men like that. I was whip of this party when we had 208 members to handle. '. got along fine with them and from my experience I can tell you that you cannot tell grown men what they have to do. They know what they have to do with- out anybody telling them, You can ask them to do something, but you cannot tell them. "I hope the Prime Minister will come to his senses before he has destroyed the unity of Canada, If we are to have unity in Canada it has to be unity in ten provinces, not in nine, or one. We have to be all united and the sooner we are all unit- ed and go ahead with something more important than the flag, the better it will be for Canada. If the governenent hae any leg- islation that is more important than the flag, why does it not introduce it? Why does it put the flag ahead of important leg- islation? Nobody told the gov- ernment to bring in the flag and nobody innisted on its being introduced. Because we are talking to stop the government from passing this flag, and this is the only hope we have of stopping it, the Prime Minister thinks this is a. filibuster. This is not a filibuster. This is a question which, once it is set- tled, is settled for all time. The decision, once taken, cannot be altered." Wm.Denom me district farmer William Sidney Denomme, 64, of RR 2 Zurich, died in South Huron Hospital Friday, Septem- ber 4.
