Then came the Reformation, the hand. was removed and the peor,2e 're- joiced in their new-found freedom. A new age had dawned and the Elizabethans rose to greet the ris• — ing sun of their prosperity: Canada to day is a 'country dis- covering itself, grasping afresh something of the vastness of its territories, aware of its yet unde- veloped resources, of its growing influence in world affairs, develop-. ing a sense of nationhood in 'a people until now more conscious of their Scottish, Irish, English, Dutch and German background than of being ^Canadian, aware that in their membership of Elizabeth's Commonwealth, they are part of a great association of free and sov- ereign people able to live in-peace, harmony and, cooperation in a world of rival ideologies, suspicion, and strife. Will vice prove ourselves a new age of Elizabethans? One thing 'is sure, the first Elizabethans did , not simply have prosperity thrust upon them; r`they took 'a lively part in the moulding of their . destiny; they were a people of vis ion, a people of courage. ' • What were the outstanding char- acteristics of that first Elizabethan age? Perhaps we, the new Eliza- bethans,-,can learn, from them.

CHIEF SIMESTS SAFE SUMMER DRIVING The greatest menace on the road today comes-from the 'driver with an "It can't happen to me" atti- tude, Chief of Police Gordon Deyell stated here today. This type of motorist, he explain- ed, drives too fast, disregards traf- fic laws, takes foolish chances. In short, he is a potential murderer— of himself and of others. "What all drivers must do this summer is. make sure they drive to survive," the Chief said. To help see motorists through the dangerous driving days just ahead, Chief Deyell came up with these "Four Summer Safety Sug- iestions": 1, -Slow down and live! .Speed is Anierica'S 'nuraber eine highway', killer. 2: Know 'and obey your traffic laws! Last year, most of the driv- ers involved in' traffic fatalities were violating one or more laws. 3, Stay alert on long trips! Stop for coffee. every couple of hours, get out of the car, walk around and stretch your legs. 4. Keep night 'driving to a mini- mum! And be especially careful at dusk.

He has put ,a tremendous amount of . hard work into the safety campaign for the past two years, with the valu- able assistance of other police offic- ers here. Perhaps this newspaper seems tarldilly dCeii p ie d 's afety general and the safety of children in particular. Nevertheless we are eternally conscious of the fact that children are growing up in a. world which scarcely resembles the one in which their mothers and fathers were reared, There are so many more hazards today than there were even 20 years ago. The most terrifying aspect of the new age is that it takes a dreadful toll of young people in their teens. We are all familiar with attitude of insurance companies to. young driv- ers. In fact most auto insurance firms don't want to have anything to do with 'them at all. At first glance it appears to be a terrible in- dictment of the modern generation, but that is not really the case. The young people are just as honorable and sane as they were in any other time, but it is simply the fact that youthful high spirits and the urge for excitement will not mix with fast cars and busy highways. The whole thought behind the ,safety program just completed is to iMpress more fifinly the attitude of Carefulness on yOung minds,, before these children become young adults and potential hazards. It 'is .a frame of mind which requires a good deal of practice, fok it is, somewhat un- natural ii-i'a'hoy of 15 or 16. to OW; very much thought to his own safe- ty. Those are, the dare-devil years, when death or injury seems an `utter impossibility, until an accident has happened. Mankind has grown pretty smart during the pasftwo or three decades. We are now handling• the products of -all sorts of brilliant scientists. We can go places in a hurry, and we all seem to have plenty of money for the-vehicles in which we travel, ',HOTTER THAN HADES Following the several meetings and entertainments which have been held recently in the auditorium of the town hall, we have heard num- berless complaints about the heat of the room—and every one of them is amply justified. On each occasion when a large crowd gathers there, even in cooler weather, the atmos- phere soon gets unbearably thick . . and when the meeting takes place on a hot night it's a fine place to stay away from. • The interior of the auditorium was redecorated a few years back and from the standpoint of appear ance there was a vast improvement. In the process, however, all the win- dows were closed in so that there is no Chance noW to get any cross- ventilation. A ventilating fan was placed in the ceiling, but apparently its capacity is nowhere near great enough to handle the job. It is quite apparent that either more fans should, be installed or the fancy work taken off some of the windows, The Vgingham AdvancerTimes Ptiblithect at Winghani, Ontario Wenger Brothers, Publishers W.

Folks who have never been into the real north country have missed a most interesting' ex- perience, for Northern Ontario does not resemble our part of the pro- vince in any way. The trees,' of course, are entirely different, but so are the waters in the lakes, the bird's sounds and the animal life . . . not to mention the fisherman's appetite. • One of the'highlights of the trip was an adventure with a beaver. Fishing in a remote bay on the lake, we saw an full-grown beaver swim past two or three hundred yards away. Soon another beaver was ob- served swimming directly toward our boat, and it kept right on corn- .in \g until it was close enough to climb up on an extended paddle, It turned out to be 'a baby of the spe- cies',.evidently strayed from its home lodge and nosily grunting and slap- , ping the water with its .tail in an :effoit to` locate. the mother, . '• 'On a walk along one of the de- serted logging roads a monstrous .ruffed grouse cock stood. in our path until we were within a few yards and a cow moose and twin calves ambled across the path ahead of us. Bears could be seen without any trouble by simply leaving some fresh kitchen waste at the 'camp dump. Naturally the fisherman will be wondering what results we got, Un- fortunately the any was too bright to catch any of the five pound and over speckled trout which are not' uncommon and the lake trout were definitely not responding the day we trolled Lake Kasasaway for them. But oh my! the pike and pickerel. As the camp owner said., -they were' "a dime a dozen"—nice fa't fish that were positively delicious as they came from the sizzling pan. We shduld put in a little plug here for the .Canadian National, for the railway company has recently designated several of the mileposts along the route as stops. for the benefit of the fishermen and the camp owners, so that more and more parties can reach the wilder- ness lakes. The service on the trains is excellent and personnel most obliging. The train on which we travelled included a snack 'car in which the passengers can buy sand- wiches and coffee rather than being forced into the higher priced diner. A plug is also in order for the camp owners, Bob Lucas of Mark- dale and Jim Thurston of Toronto. The latter is a son of publisher Manic Thurston of the Fleshertcm Advance and the boys are in the process of -building up one of the finest fishing 'camps- in the north- land. Hot and cold running water, showers, gotid beds, excellent boats and -motors and a guiding service all add to the enjoyment of the holi- day', not to mention some of the best meals we have ever tasted, turned out by the fine hand of Mrs. Thurston t If you would, like to "know On- tario better" we tail think of no finer place to startt,
