'Three thousand copies of the
Scriptures for university' grada
OW. The Bible Society presented
the three thousand Scriptures to
the graduating students at the
Convocation of the Andhra, Intiver-
say, India, this year. Perhaps this.
Is the first time In India t•but Mich
a large scale distribution of Scrip-
tures has ever been made on a
single occasion. Several Canadian
Missionaries were present at the
Convocation, and were thrilled to
witness this great distribution of
the 'word of God.
"The wonderful thing about it
all", writes Rev, John Ttart., • "is'
that when asked presentation
might he made to the 'Christian
graduates, the 'University Authority
' asked, 'Why not all the grilatates?'
So to all the three thousand grad.

The Recreation Council has pat-

COURTESY STILL; PAYS
Most of us can retail' the day
when the visit of a government in-
srpector of any kind meant unpleas-
antness of the worst kind. 'The
trouble started during the war when
inspection -staffs were hurried and
when inspectors knew that replace-
ments would be hard to find. During
the War, too, most of the legislation
which demands inspection of, busi-
nessmen's books was originated and
the various bodies in charge were no
'-ddubt green about the selection of
personnel.
We can recall visits from Inspec-
tors in various departments which
left us with an undeniable urge to
kill— when high-handedness and 'an
overbearing attitude seemed tote
the visitors' chief stock in trade,'
overbearing attitude seemed to be

made during the'past few years. Per-
haps goVel-nrrient *agencies' "have re-
ognized t3ie .reality' that 'their in-

Last week our office was visited
by an inspector the Unemployment
Insurance Commission and it was an
entirely pleasant experience. He was.,
most certainly not the kind of man
one would try to push around, but
he did exhibit that kind of courtesy
which indicated his awareness that
the subjects of his calls are citizens
and equals in the freedoms of this
land.
This trend to a more courteous
treatment of taxpayers is one which
can be heartily commended. All too
often the inspector is calling on a
business %-hich keeps several sets of
records and devotes a good many
hours a month to the maintenance of
government plan for the collection
of income or excise tax, to the col-
lection of unemployment insurance
premiums, etc. This he does with-
out any remuneration for lost time,
simply because the law says he has
no choice. It is therefore more than
aggravating when the person who
has gone to al! this trouble is sub-
jected to arse. We hope the change
for the better is a permanent oni.

they have no experience whatever.
The net, result is a need for complete
readjustment to the realities of life.
Sports for boys and girls in the
minor age groups should have one
paramount purpose—to teach good
sportsmanship. It should be equally
important for a youngster to win
or lose with neither a braggart's
c,9nceit nor a failure's gloom. The
mOdern world is thickly sown with
useless young men who "tried out')
with some famous professional team
and then came back hothe to roost.
• Th plan of giving all youngsters
a chance at hall or hockey is much
more likely to produce good citizens
than all the championship teams
have ever done.
In sharp and encouragmg-. con-
trast is the Brussels system. Busi-
ness operations over the past 50
years have been carried, out with
such goo judgment that the com-
missioners. were able this .year to
erect brand new and completely
°modern building; to house the switch-
board, repair department,. office and
garage. In addition, the system has
been . changed, over to the more
modern "Common battery' Oper-
ation—a definite improvement from
the standpoint of both, company and
subscribers.
The shareholders and commis-
sioners have .ample room for pride in
the progressive steps • which • have
been taken to brinc, their sl-stern into
stride with the modern civilization
of which it is an important part.
HOUSES ARE SCARCE •
. Of all the things we 'need ih this
-town, houses certainly top the list.
Never since • the erection of the
homes in Hillcrest has, there been
such an acute shortage of Eying
accommodation, in either purchase
or rental class. Even small apart-
ments are at a premium. Housing
has never been too plentiful in recent
years, but the situation has become
more drastic recently.
'The demand for homes has been
increased, of course, by increased
employment here. All the older es-
tablished firms have been going
great guns and a new one has been
added within the past two years.
The result is that more families want
to live in Wingham, a condition
which most communities in Ontario
would be glad to face.
The solution is not simple by any
means. Rentals in a town this size
are hardly high, enough to attract
the investment of dolalrs in new
homes. 'Many of the new families in
town are younger people who have
not had the time necessary to build
sip ,savings for a building program of
their own; A government sponsorea
project such as the Hilicrest develop
ment has its drawbacks, one of them
being an additional burden*on tax-
, payers, since the sites for such new
homes and the services to them must
be provided at a very low rate for a
pre-set period.
The problem, however, is suffic-
iently important to merit some deep
thought and 'study oh the part of
civic leaders. We have all been cry-
ing for more industry in town and
now that We have it we find our-
selves with no places for the Addi-
tional workmen to live..

I believe I am expressing the
feelings of every member of Coun-

ations to the Wigham Kinsmen
Club for the successful _promotion.,
of their first trade fair in this

Having watched with keen in-
terest all the preparations, enthus-
iasm and hard work put into this
venture, it was a real thrill to see
it carried through to such a suc-
cessful conclusion,
This is what makes a service

witnessed last week.
This is not only a credit to the
kinsmen themselves but a fine
thing for Wingham and the whole

(Kodacolor CU) is a real boon to

used: in daylight or with flash
without the addition of filters or

just load it into your camera and

, You should *particularly enjoy
Using this type of colts filrri for
