They.;said that if the Bank of Mon -

ten cent collection fee would have
be charged to - all all patrons pay -
ling through banks. The directors
felt that.._ since no collection fee
for payment of taxes, hydro, fire
insurance, etc. was levied on pat-
rons, the sameshould be applied
to telephone. Whereas up to one-
quarter of the Dungannon patrons
formerly paid at Lucknow, it was
felt that they should have the -same
.payment privileges now afforded
the other patrons. The directors
felt this matter should have fur-

° WITH Blot SMILEY'
My - daughter 'asked nie a ques-
tion•..that bad me ` stumped; the
other evening: I'd just finished,
to bed -time
1lYng her a , about
Mufik1e•Uhkle-Unky, 't e' .great-
grandfather ,of all the Monkeys in
the jungle, and one of her favorite
characters.
* * *
The'old ape had lust put a herd
of wild elephants to rout, by spit-
ting thumb -tacks among them, from
his perch in the ''Biggest Tree in
the Jungle, Kim thought the story
was`_about average,and.condescen,
ded to utter a couple of amused
snorts when 1 reeled around the
roomy holding one foot in the air
and 'howling with pain, as -I. made
like a wild elephant which had
stepped on a thumb -tack.
* * *
Then she popped her question,
which, as usual, had no connection
whatever with anything that was
going on. 1 was just tucking her
in, when she turned the big orbs
on me, and asked: "Daddy, if
there's a Mother's Day and a
Father's Day, why isn't there a
Children's Day?"
* * *
I tried to laugh it off, and told
her every day was Children's Day,
around our house. After she was
asleep, though, when 1 was sitting
downstairs trying to pick out the
choice parts in Peyton Place with-
out reading- the whole; 1'J S' novel,
1 got thinking about it.

The more I pondered, the more
I was convinced there should be
a Children's' Day. After all, child-
ren are pretty important. If ,there
---wire no -•;-children; -there.- wouldn't -
be any mothers el- fathers
. If there ere
were no mothers and' fatiets,
there'dbe no Mother's Day
Father's Day. If those
two. great
annual farces were abolished, our
retail merchants would be teeter-
ing on. the brink of 'ruin. See
where logic can lead you?
* * *
Gradually, as• 1 considered it, the
cruelty and thoughtlessness of the
whole thing ate into my soul like
iron. The poor Tittle kids, We
give up all our peace on earth for
them, work our heads to the bone,
sacrifice and slave for them, but
We're . too selfish to give the most
important • people in the' world—
Our Children ---one single, crumby,
little day of their own.
* * a:
"By George," I said to myself
(I was getting pretty worked up)
"it's inhuman! . Abominable! What
kind ofallous brutes are we, any-
way?" Right there and then, I
resolved that I'd be the founder
of international, non -denomination-
al Children's Day. I'd , be famous,
like the old skirt who invented
Mother's Day. I'm not a child, but
she wasn't a mother, and look what
a rat -race she started. ,
* *, *
Since then, I've given it a lot
of thought, and I think 1 have the
details pretty well ironed out. I'm
anticipating a little ' trouble with
a few old-fashioned mothers and
fathers, but 1 think the vast major-
ity of modern, progressive dopes
--uh, 1 mean parents ---will be with
me.
We want to make it a red-letter
day. Something the children will
look forward to with fiendish de-'
light. And the. parents with un-
disguised fear and trembling.
* * *
First thing to do, of course, is.
to get up before them in the morn-
ing. This may require staying up
all night, but it'll be worth it, be-
cause, you see, well be giving
them breakfast in bed. They're to
have anything they want for break-
fast, even if it's a bagof jellybeans.
* * *
And that sort of sets the p tern•
for the day. The kids are to 'have,
and do,. absolutely anything they
want. They've been saying for
weeks that it's far too hot to wear
a jacket and hat. O.K. Let them
go out in their bare heads and
feet, even if you have to nurse
them for a week, afterwards.
School is out, as are lessons and
practice of all kinds. If they want
to go picking pussy -willows in the
swamp, let them. And if they come
home mud to the eye -balls, greet
them cheerily
* * *
Answer all their questions im-
mediately and exhaustively. None
of this grunting: "Ask your father."
Keep thinking up new things for
them to do and eat. Let them
watch TV as long as they like,
and in the evening, .send them off
to the movies. When they get
home, give them a little benzedrine
and"keep them up all night, read-
ing stories to them. • 4 * •
The more I think of it, the more
wonderful the idea seems. It would
be sheer hell for the parents, but
I think one treatment would be
enough. .1 haven't ,quite had the
nerve to Set the date for the first
one. However, I think we can set
it, tentatively, for , some time in
the year the Social 'Credit party
takes over the government of
'Canada. Fair enough?
