THE WINGHAM ADVANCE-TIMES ItIR ESl14Y,. JUNL 25th, 19(4 HOLIDAYS MEAN HAZARDS With the advent of summer holidays there is an added danger that your child may be the one to suffer injury; that :Your car may be the cause of an accident. With this thought in mind it is well to settle down to new consciousness of the dangers, By all means get as tough as you can with the young— sters. They will` be wandering farther from home now that they have more time on their hands. If Buster owns a bicycle you'd better get his dad to take him out for a refresher course in the safety rules—and don't fail to remind him at every turn that he is in charge of the most dangerous vehicle on the road. Before long you will be grooming the family chariot for the annual holiday trip. It's a grand thought . , . getting away to the lake or to see friends in Detroit, or something similar. The only danger lies in the fact that several million other Canadians and Americans will be doing the same thing, The highways are congested to overflowing and vehicles are so thick on the busier arteries that one small slip on the part of one driver can bring suffering and death to the occupants of half a dozen other cars. This should he one of our happy times of year. The time of release from routine and strain. Let's keep it that way. Eternal care, not only for yourself, but of the other fellow's shortcomings is required. 4 ! NEWS OF BEL,CRAVE VtzltrT jr+ The dresses, numbering over 30, dated back to 1868.

BLYTU MAIN STREET AROUSED IN EARLY MORNING "Disturbed" is hardly the word to use in describing the reaction of local residents to a performance which took place on Blyth main street dur- ing the early hours on Tuesday morn- ing. "Hostile" would be a better explan- ation—and rightly so. Sometime prior to and around 2 a. in, residents ivere awakened by the racing of a motor ,the screeching of brakes, the screrning of tires, and the rustle Of gravel as it apparently flew away from sliding rubber. Whoever the guilty parties were— and there are those who' claim they know them—they were needlessly re- sponsible for disturbing the normal sleeping hours of many citizens. There is entirely too much frivolity and speeding 'among motorists on the main thoroughfare of the village. It is like a three-ring circus to stand on the sidewalk and watch the perform. ance almost any evening. These Who are responsible for any of such misdemeanours would do Well to change their tactics before Some child or adult becomes a victim. If it is not stopped, the proper authorities Should see to it that it is stopped. There are places established in the district for those who wish to impose their speed and daring on otherS. • There people will pay to Watch them. Certainly illyth's main street is not the place for such antics,—Blyth Standard, T.B. SURVEY IS SAFEGUARD The X-ray survey which will be carried out here next week provides an opportunity to safeguard health which none should miss. Every erson over the age of 12 in this district is invited, yes, urged to spend the few seconds required for an examination. The ,mobile unit, resembling- a bus, in which the equipment is carried will be stationed at the town hail for three days. There is no undressing, no embarrassing questions are asked. It is this type of survey which has decreased the incidence of tuberculosis in the province so sharply. Cards have been left at practically all of the homes in Wing-ham and the surrounding townships, However, there may he a few families which have been missed, and they are urged to come in for examination regardless. There will be more cards available at the town hail. There is no reason for any person to hesitate. If, like the vast majority, you find that you are free of any infection, you can remain safely re-assured in the know- ledge. If, however, you are not so fortunate it is vitally important that any trace of T.B. be discovered at once, for in its early stages the disease yields readily to treat- ment. Taken over the entire province, the campaign to stam pout tuberculosis has led to discovery of carriers, who were unwittingly spreading infection to others. The service is provided by the Department of Health, and a portion of the funds required for its maintenance are derived from your contributions through Christmas Seals. Don't miss this opportunity to check on your owns condition. * DID YOU EVER HEAR OF RUBBER FORMS? In the printer's languages "forms" are the frames in which the individual pages of a newspaper are put to- gether. Obviously the size of the form predetermines the size of the page. We can recall one former employer who, under stress of too much copy, would shout, "We're fresh out of rubber forms !" That cry is one which we have been using lately in the Advance-Times office. For the past few weeks we have been bulging at the seams, Most of the trouble arises because so many of our contributors are sending in their copy later than usual. Both advertisers and news contributors have been putting us on the spot. We are well aware of all the difficulties involved in getting material for the paper, and the thousand and one reasons for delay, however, this newspaper is maintained on a fairly fast schedule and it should he apparent that if material does not reach our hands until Tuesday morning there is bound to be confusion, The paper is completed and ready for the press by Tuesday night. Much of the work must be done on and and Monday, so when the bulk on Monday and Tuesday is too great we simply must hold copy over until the week following. No person in the community is more anxious to get every last bit of news and advertising into the paper than its publisher, but being human we are hound by certain physical limitations. The most miserable part of late copy is that the generN quality of the newspaper suffers, where simply is no time to treat all the material with the care it deserves, Mistakes are bound to occur in the rush and feelings are hurt. During the past, week our firm has been proud to receive a trophy for its second newspaper, The Mildmay Gazette. That trophy signifies tat the paper in question was judged best in its class in e province of Ontario and Quebec. We would like very riuch to bring a similar recognition to Wingham. Your co-operation will assist us tremendously.
