COMMUNITY HOCKEY TO HE OlifiANIZEO A new approach to community Minor Sports organization was dis- cussed by representatives of fifteen 'Western Ontario cornmunities • of Lake Huron .Zone Recreation Council's Conference in Walkerton last Saturday, • In order to assure more oppor•- tunities'for . participation on a com- munity level, these communities agree that in the 1957-58 season, all minor hockey would he con- ducted on a community basis with inter-community play only on the play-off level, In addition to pro- viding a greater opportunity for participation this would limit the amount of expenses in minor sports development. • The focal community organii,- otion necessary to develop this type of programme will he dis- cussed at a meeting to be held in the council -chambers in the town hall Wingham at 2,00 pm. on Saturday, November 9th., and those interested from each community in Western Coterie have been invited to attend. ir Quick relief for headache - JOIrs, 300's 19c 49c BABY -BRUSH &C OMB SET , 98c 59 BroiLeaLteFiypeLIDunsiod VeanettO . uporox, 8 i'b, bag .. ,. c ,... , $ 1. 19 BUBBLE $2 50 Genuine L4,, aE BATH tileit., tporo seatores .... . • ,v . 79c "Orient" bath luicory at ceopoinical Price - 12 oz. bag _ CELLULOSE SPONGES 5 for 29c Assorted shapes and sizes .. .. , I CIGARETTE LIGHTER Automatic triple-gear action tighter 49c -ROUND TOOTH COMBS . 29c 39c i 3-rows ball-point teeth. 1 White Nylon COMBS 4to„ 49c Bobby, Pocket, Curl Sr, Dressing DRESSER SETS - $4.98 Smartly styled mirror, brush, and comb set - only 1 $ Lady Schick ,95 ELECTRIC SHAVERS 1 8 .i ELECTRIC SHAVERS 1 Lady Sunbeam • '$1 2.95 i ENVELOPES Packet of 20 - regularly 10c ...,.,.... ..., • C ' 'rfw C 'FLASHLIGHT Prefoeusetl; 2-cell; 3-position switch; bolt ring - only 39c • FLOOR WAX 45 r C 2 f o 89c 1 lb. tin 'End-Gloss' Paste Wax, reg. 59c HAIR BRUSHES 9 98 Ladies' Roll-wave stYle,..; ..:.40 t.'

We had an interesting conver- sation last week with a Toronto wo- man who lived 'next door to the great George Bernard Shaw before she left :Rug-land sonic years ago. She recalled one of his pithy remarks which had to do with young people. The great 0.8.S. said, "Yduth is such a wonderful thing; what a pity it is wasted on those who are so young.", Perhaps because we live in the unnaturally stimulated atmosphere Of a post-war period, the young people of today appear on the surm„ face to be a a little more zany than we were at the same age,, Our standards, it must be recalled, were fashioned, for the most part in the chill sterility ot the depression years, when you fitful ',exuberance was tem- pered by ,a universal lack of funds Even at that we can all , recall the dire predictiRms of still another gen ,. eration, moaning about "What we were going to come to". There isn't very much point in vain regrets about what today's young people -lack. If any of us are in a position to rectify their 'short- comings, it behooves • us to do so quickly. The first man-made planet was launched' only a few, days ago. Travel to the moon and back has suddenly dawned on the human mind a,s something other than an .ex- cerpt from Buck Rogers. These young people of ours will soon be dealing, for us, with problems that will be largely beyond the scope of our horse-and-baggy imaginations. Maybe we had better treat them with proper respect. •I MINERAL OIL 16 and 40 oz. sizes - reg. , MeKibbeit Said.

They know that they will be able to get away with a, little innocent 'nonsense without getting into trouble., Due to the tradition which has been erected around this annual night of high jinks over the centuries, most Hallowe'en pranks are in the nature of good fun. Pareuts.would do well to remind their, youngsters; however, that fun and torture are two different mat- ters. Home owners who are com- paratively young and healthy don't really, Mind cleaning up after the pranksters and shelling' out to those ' who arrive at the door. But—many of the ,older people who have been made victims of cruel and frighten- ing Hallowe'en jokes live in dread of the event. By far the greater majority Of the youngsters who venture out' in 'costume on Hallowe'en night have sufficient respect for the property of other people to confine their non- sense to, pranks Which , do :not spell , permanent 'iarm. ,We do, however, ave a few sadiSts7 Who delight in , creating real mental suffering, usu- ally picking on the aged and defence- less for their fun. Never mind how much you trust year youngsters. Just make sure they know the difference between a joke and something vastly more Serious. $3.49 AND NOW IT'S ALL OVER Daylight .saving time ended in the town of 'Wingharnand-pra,cticai „ ly all other centres on Saturday at midnight and'it is hoped it has also ended some of the arguments on the subject. We don't suppose that town and country people will ever quite agree • on the subject of daylight time in general —,but it is to be hoped that some better plan can be worked out before next year so that decision about - the months during which it prevails can be reached. This particular question points again to the need for an informal but easily handled meeting arrange- ment fOr the representatives - of, a fairly widespread section of West- ern, Ontario, so that matters which are of concern to communities over the whole territory could he discuss- ed in a sensible fashion.

IT ' AFTER ALL Nothing is quite as gratifying to '-edithr as comments about Abe editorial column of his newspaper. Whether the, remarks are for or (agin' .doeSn't matter too -much — just as' lOng those all-iinPortant editorials are read. For this reason' our 'state of bliss is usually pretty complete. We •do hear many com- ments on the editorial column each week, • Last week was a particularly re- warding one. Our own editorial on the state of the nation's business and a letter from the mayor of the town' on, the same subject both brought forth a good deal of mention — chiefly from people who, for one reason or another, are closely related to the swiftly-changing problems of Small business. Another of . our editorials ' how- • ever, dealt with the possibility of finding more imaginative names for our streets, and it WAS not long be- fore tditor Wib McLeod of the Kin- cardine News came along With a thmight-proVoking. suggestion, He • says that since Wingham is SO thor- (nighty 'ensconced in the protecting folds of the CTA, and since our com- munity has long borne the shame of a street called -Carling Terrace, it high time we balanced things off by rpnintinre ORO Of the others "Tem- perance Street".

The towh council has been in contact with the CPR, but apparent- ly the problem of completely remov- ing the posts is a sticky one. The mayor tells us that one of the sug- gestions from the railway 'was to wait until the :freeze-up and then cut the pilings off at the surfaces of the ice, It certainly is ,hoped that they can come up with something better than that. Such a coarse would in all probability leave the stumps standing above the water level after the spring run-off when the river droPs. There are many in this commun- ity who can recall when the stretch of the IVIaitland from McKenzie bridge to First 'Bush provided "one of the finest natural- recreation areas to be found in any town this site.
