In this case it won't. The hospital plan will surely emerge as typical social legislation; *the kind,where the citizen of inde- pendence and spirit becomes nothing more romantic than an old-fashioned sucker, We've all heard that old saw about "if you can't lick 'em join 'em." Here you have its wisdom un- diluted. , -Although the entire hospital plan A is still clouded with rumour there is. plenty of evidence now that only those who go' along with the scheme haveanrchatice of winning: 'One of -the major factors which leads to this conclusion is the recent statement by the hospital services commission that there will no longer be a special and separate charge for such things as X-rays. The 'cost of these services 'will be borne out of the general ward care rate in each hospital, And of Personally, we have no regrets for the return to not v ial, living. We behave, _ourselves nnidi better wan we -are fully occupied. But we do have one real regret. `At this season our homes and gardens have achieved what could well be termed the perfection for which they have been nurtured since the snow , disappeared. Hedges, lawns?And flowerbeds are- in full, magnificent color ; their grass which was dry and brown three weeks ago is now racing the lawn mower with its verdant growth. Soon all fall before a sharp overnight frost, f course even this pang brings , its own reward, as do most human pains, for most of us live through these last days of fall with a keen sense of the beauty around us and an awakened appreciation of the fine autumn days the Lord will send as before the darkness of early win- ter doses in. Perhaps all of this points only to the complacent belief that there is no Use complaining about what appears to be unpleasant and much deep hap- piness to be had from enjoying life's natural pleasures as long as they last. the "V/Ingham Advance-Times itokibbaiwgt at iroliktbatho, Ontario itteliter Heather* Publisher* Barry" ]'eat r.

Your first impulse may be to blame an autocratic government for what seems to be thinly-veiled com- pulsion. That attitude is worth re- examination, for no government could possibly make such a wide- spread plan function without the participation of a powerful majority of the people. It is our firm belief that the necessary number of pari ticpants will he found a short time after the plan is put into effect, By then the high cost of remaining aloof will have, become all to evident. As a, matter of fact, the only sensible plan is to get into the thing now, when distinct advantages are offered for pre-registration. FUNDS FOR A. PURPOSE Congratulations to the Lions Club, whose Frontier Days have for the first time in three years, earned a worthwhile sum. Chief reason. for our • evident satisfaction lies in the knowledge that every cent the Lions can bring in is turned back to the residents of this community for assistance to blind and crippled per- - sons, or for Whatever other worthy causes may present themselves (and .Usually do) in the course of a year. One of the basic rules of money- gathering, where -service clubs are -work they plan for those who need their assistance in this locality The -Wild :West function means a lot of time and effort to the club members, most of whom are busy men. 'Not one .whit is begrudged as long as the results are worth while. COMMUNITY SPIRIT IS STRONG Last, -Saturday afternoon the folks in Whitechureh and the sur- rounding rural area staged a very successful event, When they sponsor- ed a field day. The proceeds from the function will be used to improve the ball park which was opened a few months ago under the sponsor-- ship of local organizations. So far we haven't heard a word from that section about grants or public aid. They want :a ball park in, Whitechurth and by golly they've got one, Perhaps there is one aspect even more important than the mere ac- complishment of a physical end. In the process the entire coMnitmity 'has been provided with an opportunity to work as one' for a common pur- pose. in the process those fine old bonds of neighborliness and interde- pendence have been strengthened and a small community has been in- jected with a fresh sense of its own importance in the general scheme of things, Many larger centres could do worse than look with keen interest on the spirit which has impelled the Whitechurch folks to work together On a. common project. In a com- munity of that size there is nothing more important than 'the common enterprises of the neighborhood, Towns 'the size of \\Ingham would he much healthier with some of the stint enthusiasti. mo.
