Pictures in the daily press, show-
ing Nikita. Khrushchev at his volts-
able best in the United Nations
General Assembly, have almost all
been typical of the man and the sys-
tem be represents. Most of the
photoS show the Soviet leader with
his fist .clenched-either waving it
in the faces of his opponents,. 't:0.7
smashing it down on his desk to.
emphasize Russian deMands.
The same clenched fist appears in
Soviet. -emblems all over the world-
a significant reminder that force will
be the underlying basis for all their
arguments.
The entire atmosphere at the UN
meetings was reminiscent of the
climate of world tension in 1938 and
1939. When so-Called statesmen
descend to hurling. crudely-worded
insults across the conference flodr,
one is. hound to be concerned about
the cause of world peace.
The consequences of a nuclear
war are so horrible to imagine that
we. in -the West have alm.ost lu led
ourselves to sleep with re-assurances
that no one will be insane enough to
"push the ibutto'); That is,a moot
question. Hitler Was insane enough.
to launch his, nation into utter ruin
-because of his own ego. His men-
tality:. was so limited that he was
willing to sacrifice civilization on the
altar of his conceit.
Whether or not Mr. Krushchev , is of the same temperament remains
to be% seen. He has suffered a re-
sounding diplomatic defeat in the
United Nations. He not only .failed.
to influence the West, he also failed
to gain any significant support from
• DEATH TRAPS
This year has seen an increasing
number of accidents which have oc-
curred at- the intersections of rural,
.concessions and' sideroads, says The
Seaforth Huron F,xpositor: a
number of cases the results have
been fatal; and in every instance
Substantial property damage has re-
sulted.
It probably is inevitable that this
situation should arise. Rural roads
in the average township-particular-
ly townships - in this area=-are well
maintained, and as a result motor
traffic is able to move along,in Com-
plete safety at maximum legal
speeds..
As 'Ong- as traffic Moves along
parallel roads there is. 11°H:rouble.
But at every mile and• a• quarter there
is an intersection, across which traf-
fic travelling on equally good roads,
and at maximum speeds, must pass.
True,:the Highway Traffic Act
spells out rhe vehicle that has the
right of way. However, this means.
little as Cars approach a common,.
and, as frequently is the case, a blind
intersection at 50 miles an hour.. Be-
cause of.Weeds„ or trees or dust, one
vehicle 'cannot realize the other is
at hand.
Costs of maintaining rural roads
are increasing each year, and each
additional demand quite properly is
examined in -the light of the effect
it will have on the tax rate. At the
same time, perhaps, the time has
come when municipal councils should.
give consideration to establishing
a greater number- of through roads
in their municipalities which would
be 'properly marked with signs.
F,qually important in reducing the
number of Accidents would be a pro-
gram to eliminate all blind corners
by clearing brush and trees from
intersections, , The .costs involved
might well be small, when compared
to the accidents which would be
avoided.

PLAN SOUNDS GOOD
Although w ve e do not, as yet, ha
too many details, the plan suggested
by the service clubs to number the
homes in town salmis like a good
one. If you have ever tried to tell
a stranger how fo find a specific
home in town yon will know .why
we are in favor,
It gets a little complicated when
the instructions are to "go up main
street to the second corner, turn left
and go three blocks. Turn right and
the place yon want ig-the third house
on the left-hand side. A white brick
house-or is it red ?" How much
simpler to say, 'without einbellish-
ment. "Forty-three Leopold St.".
There is another advantage, too'
-and that is in the prestige which
would be inherent with a properly
handled system of numbers. We are
all quite interested in. the opinion of
our- community which is or might
he held by prospective industrialists.
Numbered homes lend a certain city
atmosphere, with none of the draw-
backs that go along with big city
living.
The chills have not vet worked.
out all the answers, but the problem.
shouldn't prove too difficult. It has
been very successfully managed by
service clubs in other nearby towns-
as we expect it will be in Wingham.
NEW PEAK
Ontario farmer„ have caught up
to and passed their big-city cousins
in the consumption of electricity.
Presiding at the official opening of
the 1960. International Plowing
Match, Ontario Hydro Chairman
James S. Duncan said that the farm-
ers of Ontario have doubled their
electrical consumption during • the.
past ten years.
Through intensive development,
electrical service has been made
available to- 95 per cent of Ontario's
farms., including the remote north-
ern areas. Low-cost power assumes
added importance in the face of ris-
ing farm cost's which are causing
serious concern among all those en-
gaged in agriculture.
Ontario Hydro, said Mr, Duncan,
has been "remarkably successful"
in keeping power rates low in re-
lation to the rising costs of its op-
eration. Since 1940 the consumer
index shows an increase of 93 per
cent, whereas the unit cost of elec-
tricity to farm customers has de-
creased over the same period by 20
per cent.
Mr. Duncan, who concluded a 46-
year career in: the farm implement
business when he retired as head of
Massey-Ferguson Ltd., predicted a
"splendid future" for agriculture.
"Notwith standing the . man y
problems which are facing the farm-
er in the p resent, the long-term
future for ,.. those engaged. in agri-
culture could not be more promis-
ing," said Mr, Duncan, "The basic
problem which the world is facing
today is not too much..food, but too
little."
The hydro chairman said agricul-
ture is not 'only a basic industry., but
one which is increasingly recognized
as essential to the survival of the 4
to- 5 billion people who will populate
the .world within the next 40 years.

and ye say well, for so I am":._

What does it mean to belong to
Christ? We are to have evident
in our lives, the fact that we are
His-that He has the first place--
that He has absolut ,control,
Many of us are willing to be,
known as Christians, but we still
want to give the orders as far as
our personal lives are concerned.
Belonging to Christ, means that He
gives the orders, and we obey them,
This is a far cry from making our
own plans, and then asking for His
blessing upon them. He seeks firth
place in every department of our
lives. Pauls says "That in ALL
things HE may have the pre-
eminence". Let Him make the de-
"eisions -• all the •decisions in. your
life- -and the world will soon know
that He is Lord in,your life! .

"Jillius Caesar," by giving -me

after shuffling and snuffling for
four minutes, he blurted: "Well,
he's medium height and medium

She suggested he had dark .brown
'hair. Immediately, there was a
class snicker, and several kids
hollered: "No! 'He has grayish
hair, sorta curly." So I wrote.

a sort of red face. It didn't sound
