The conceit of the man! Does 'he imagine that those Irish people are going to be told how to be- have? Just let him,carry that far enoughsttnd his day's done! • • • 4 Canada is certainly taking a place in the sun this year. . First, a whole squad of people came from evety- where to study scientific matters in' the far north, such as what causes northern lights, etc., then representaa tives .from the far-flung points of the British Empire cameto sit.about a table in Ottawa and diseuss trade conditions and endeavour to improve them, and now scientists are conning • -from all over to view the sun eclipse) which will be visible in Quebec Aug- ust Slit, But, Canada is a gooci • place to come to any old time and -.any old year, whether there are any "-special stunts being put on or not. • * • * a Franklin D. Roosevelt is _the Decn- ocratic candidate for president in the United States and many Canadians liave,expressed rather hazy ideas as to his relationship to the late Theo- dore Roosevelt, ex -president and man of nternational fame. But 'Canadians can hardly be blamed for being a hit hazy as it turns out that the widow sof the late Theodore Roosevelt has been getting messages galore con- • gratulating her on her husband's -candidature. Franklin D. Roose- vele is a distant cousin of the late '"Theodore and seems to be the: only -one of the family to have become a .Democrat. He may get a few votes from none -too -well informed voters • on the strength of the family name. You will notice how quickly motor- ists pick up and use any condemna- - tion of slow driving. To hear some ' • of them talk one would suppose that -slow driving was the major cause of .accidents. Perhaps slow driving is ' the cause of some accidents, drivers who wish to go faster sometimes be- ing obliged to turn out when such a - 'turn is risky, but anyone can easily - imagine that excessive speed of 'motor cars. is a constant source of • •danger. Should anything go wrong with the running gear of a ear going at twenty-five or thirty miles an hour • no particular harm results. Where- as if the speed is fifty, sixty or morn, 'there is no telling what may happen. Even the act of applying the emet•- gency brake at that speed, if that becomes necessary,is a danger. There is no question about it, the speed at which a great many people drive, and. carelessness in observing the rules of the road, are the cause of the majority of motor accidents; M • f The St. Marys Journal -Argus tells `an experience in that town when a Chautauqua con'eert company sang "0 Canada," acid the audience was .slow to recognize and to join in the •.song. We have noticed the same thing happen here on more than one occasion. Very few people can sing the song right through, though most ' know the first verse of one or other of the several versions. The Journal - .Argus concludes; "The fact is that people are not yet familiar with the words of '0 Canada.' It is high time that they were. Any who do not know at least the first verse of our national anthem are invited to turn to another page of this is- • sue, where the words are print- ed. Learn the words and see if it doesn't snake you feel 'better!„ And here is the version •it gives. -.But probably tomorrow somebody will • Write in to say that this is *not the ' right one at all and will give anoth • er and quite different one, b CANADA (First Verse) ••"0 Canada! Our home, our native Iand, "True patriot love in all thy sone command. With glowing hearts we see thee rise, _ 'The True North strong and free; And stand on guard, 0 Canada, We stand on guard for thee! '•) Canada! glorious and freer "We stand on guard,we stand on guard for thee, s:D Canada, we stand, we stand on guard for thee. r• • • Already this summer several drown- ing accidents have occurred and Aug- - ust is the biggest holiday month, so it would be well for those indulging in the summer sports of boating, can- oeing and swimming .to be careful. 1°he'Newe-Reeord has often expres- sed the opinion that every Canadian child' should be taught to swim. It is a great mistake for parents to re- fuse to allow the child to learn . to ewim as sooner or later, in this coun- try of4rivers and lakes, every, boy and girl'' is'' going to be exposed to the danger of drowning, if living the normal life 1of Canadian youth, and a knowledge of how to keep oneself afloat may servo to save the life. Again,. and this; -is the point parents. sand guardians should note, a boy or THE CLINTON NEWS -RECORD PAGE .J girl whohas been taught to deport themselves in the water, to handle a boat or canoe carefully, is not near- ly so likely to take risks as the nov- ice, who does not realize the danger. The . other day one of the greatest, swimmers of this continent, John- ny Weissmuller, said this: "I am a champion swimmer, yet I would no cnoi,-e swim a half mile from shore alone without a boat in attendance than I put a loaded gun to my head and pull the trigger.. It is as dangerous as that. Don't show off , and just], keep cramps in the back of your mind when you are tempted to swim out of sight or aid of others." ,If a champion swiipmer takes such, precautions how' much more neces- sary it is for ordinary folk to do so, Teach the ,boy and girl to swim, to handle a canoe or boat, teach them the danger of carelessness and reck- lessness and insist upon proper pre- -cautions. It is the surest way to. prevent accidents; • WEEKLY PUBLIS'HER,S ELECT OFFICERS A Marsh President; Barrie Examiner I Gets Mason Trophy At the annual convention of the Weekly Newspapers' Association held at .Port Arthur last week Arthur Marsh, proprietor of The Echo of Am- herstburg, Ont., was elected Presi- dent.
