WHAT OTHER NEWS PAPERS ARE SAYING
PASTE THIS IN YOUR CARWATCH THE WATER
People
cars should read)
P whodrive
the newspapers. They should watch'
for the results of some of the many'
court cases, in which motor accidents
furnish the central theme. They
might learn a great deal.
Mr. Justice Jeffrey gave two de- -
cisions in damage claims in London.
In one case a retired fanner and his'
wife had been struck when crossing
a street in. London and the amount
awarded them was $12,000.
The other was related to an auto
mobile smash near Wingham in June
of 1984, and the amount involved
there was $20,500.
The average man does not possess
$12,000, nor could he raise it. The
number who have $20,500 or any hope
of ever accumulating that amount is
smaller, and yet these are the figures
which are being dealtwith in auto
smash cases in the courts today.
It might do no harm to Stick those
two figures some place in the car
where you can look at :them when
you are inclined to step on the gas
and take even a small chance.
Dunnville Chronicles.
With the coming of spring, atten-
tion should be given to school water
supplies. There are 5,631 rural and
319 urban public schools in Ontario.
The Separate schools number 588 of
which 470 are rural. Thus there are
in all, 6101 rural schools in the Pro-
vince. In most of the rural schools
the water supply comes front a well
in the school grounds. There may be,
ample opportunity for , pollution .of
the well water.
'The startling history of illness and
death in a family in the vicinity of
the little town of Madoe where a
farmer and his four children died
presumably of arsenical poisoning as
a result of the use of water from the
farm well; where the farmer's wife
and later the deceased's brother suf-
fered from prolonged illness, due to
the same : cause, is detailed in the cur-
rent issue of the Canadian Public
Health Journal, by Pref. Wylie. In
the case referred to, the source of
arsenic resided in the porous rocks
through which the ground water fil-
tered to reach the well. The water
was bright, clear and sparkling. It
had no visible impurities. Examina-
tion disclosed the presence of arsenic
in considerable quantities.
Occurrences .of this particular kind
are said to be extremely rare, un-
fortunately there is not a similar
rarity in the occurrence of disease,
such as typhoid fever, carried by well
water.

WHY NOT CINDER PATHS?
The number of fatalities in Ontario
involving ;pedestrians and especially
school children, upon the highways
and byways is mounting each year
due to the increase in motor traffic
and the speed with which the modern
vehicle travels. Now with the speed
limit raised front 35 to 50 miles per
hour there is a likelihood • that there
will be more fatalities and thus it
might now be a good time for the
Department of Highways to consider
the advisability of constructing cin-
der paths along the sides of the pav-
ed roads so that those who walk or
ride bicycles will not be forced to tra-
vel on the pavement to the great dis-
tress and danger of everyone. It
should not cost a great deal of money
to construct these paths and there
would be little or no upkeep if they
were gravelled at the outset.

APRIL 1st, YOU KNOW .-
A fellow can go too far with his
April fool jokes, in the opinion of a
tax collector in this county. The said
collectorwas half-heartedly going his
rounds on Thursday last, when, to
his surprise and joy, he took in four
nice fat cheques in a row -taxes paid
in full. . Happily he, proceeded to the
bank and deposited the cheques, only
to have them returned "N. S. F." He
frowned, began to protest and turned.
to leave the bank, only to be con-
fronted by four,. grinning taxpayers.
The .April fool gag was paid in full.

EDIT,ORS'. MISTAIKES
An Editor, who had his attention
called to a mistake in one of his col-
umns, didn't feel so aggrieved when
he recalled that on the same day
there was a letter in his post office
box that did not belong to him; he
called No. 98 on his telephone and
got 198; he called for a spool of No.
50 thread and got a spool of No. 60;
he got his milk bill and there was a
mistake of ten cents in the com-
pany's favor; he felt sick and the
doctor told him he was eating too
much meat when he hadn't tasted
meat for two months; the preacher
turned •in his church notes with the
name of the society president mis-
spelled and the editor got the blame
for it; the garage' man said his car
was missing bceause it needed a new
timer, and he leaned the spark plugs
and the flivver has run fine ever
since. And no doubt you can pick out
a few more that could•not be blamed
on the editor.

IIOT OR COOL SUMMER?
The amateur prophets suggest that
because of the unusually high tem-
peratures that have been character-
istic of this winter we are likely to
have a cool summer. The records
do not tend to support such a pre-
diction. In the past, when there was
an exceptionally mild winter, the
succeeding summer usually was hot.
That was actually the case in seven
summers following the nine mildest
winters in the last 96 years. The
mildest winter on record in Ontario
was 1931-32, when the mean tempera-
ture for December, January and Feb-
ruary. was 32.7 as compared with the
normal for those months for the past
96 years, 23.8. The general, explana-
tion offered: by weather experts as
to why 'warm summers follow warm
winters is that trends in weather per-
sist. It is also the case, as in the
present winter, that tremendous ar-
eas of the country are clear of snow
and ice so more heat from the sun's
rays can be absorbed and given off
by radiation.
FREAK WIND AT ELMIRA
PULLED "HAT TRICK"
The Elmira Signet tells this one:
"Amandus Herz, Ernst Street, El-
mira, wore two hats to work the oth-
er morning. It wasn't to be different
-it just happened that way, and
chances are one in a million of it
ever happening again. It happened
like this: ,
"On his way from the house to the
garage to get his car for a regular
morning drive to Kitchener, where
he. works, Mr. Herz was greeted with
a gust of wind and twirling snow that
lifted his hat from his head and car-
ried it across the back yard and out
of sight. Unable to find his "head-
piece' in the blowing snow, Mr. Herz
returned to the house and got his
best hatfor replacement.
"Driving one block east to Arthur
Street, .Mr. Herz picked up his usual
three co-workers for Kitchener and
turned south. .After covering about
two blocks, the four persons in the
automobile were suddenly startled
when a dark object blew in front of
the car and hooked, itself on the ra-
diator cap.
"You guessed it -nothing else but
Mr. Herz' hat that had blown away.
The wind had carried the hat almost
three bloeks across back yards to
cover the shortest distance between
the 'I' routes covered. by Mr. Herz."

The Sinking of the "Titanic"
On April 15, 1912, occurred the greatest sea disaster in the his-
tory of navigation. The 'Titanic, bearing 2,200 people and majesti-
cally proceeding on her maiden voyage from Southampton to New.
York, hit an iceberg 800 miles off the coast of Halifax. In three
hours she had sunk and only 600 people were saved. Jack Kannawin
will tell the story of this terrible disaster on Friday, April 16, when.
his ,programa,'This Week in History" is offered to the listeners of
the CBC from the Toronto studios at 7.30 p.m. EST.
The Titanic was presumed to be unsinkable: She was the last
word in luxurious ocean travel and so sure were her designers that
no ill -fate could overtake her that she was equipped with only twenty
lifeboats. Her's was the first wi 'eless equipment to send out the
distress call of "SOS" and the Carpathia hurried to her aid but
found only the 'lifeboats and the struggling survivors.. The beauti-
ful new ship had gone down with her captain, E. C. Smith, on the
bridge and she carried to a watery grave such internationally known
figures as Charles M. Flays, Benjamin Guggenheim, and John Jacob
Astor.
Program of Chamber Music
"Echoes of the Masters," a CBC national, network presentation
from Toronto on Thursday, April 15, at 8,30 p.m. EST, will be under
the direction of Geoffrey Waddington. The program will be devoted
entirely to chamber music presentations and the major work selected
for this date will be the "Symphony No. 1" by William Boyce. The
celebrated Eighteenth Century composer was associated throughout
his career with the composition of church music. He is not particu-
larly well known as a composer of orchestral music but nevertheless
his contributions in this field were important and the symphony an-
nounced for this presentation is typical of his spirited work. The
symphony is in three movements: (1) Allegro, (2) Andant dolce and
(3) Vivace. Boyce was born in London,' England, in 1710.
Kelsey Club Talks Extended
The Kelsey Club talks presented from Winnipeg every Sunday
over the GBC national network have been' extended owing to the
great interest that is being taken in the original broadcasts on the
subject "What We Have to Defend." The concluding discussions will
deal more directly with the various conflicting points of view regard-
ing present defence policies in Canada. In this way the actual is-
sues of the defence problem will be placed in front of the listening
audience,
Dr. R. 0. MacFarlane, Associate Professor of History, University
of Manitoba, in his broadcast of April 4, presented the "isolationist"
point of view. The "Imperialist" point of view was presented by R.
F. McWilliams, K.C., on April 11, and the argument for the "collec-
tive security" point of view now will be given by E, J. Tarr, K.C., .
on April 18, and the "pacifist" point of view, by J. S. Woodsworth,
M.P., on April 25. The series will conclude. on May 2 with a summary
of these conflicting arguments together with comments upon them
by J. B. Coyne, K.C'., and by Sidney Smith, M.A., L.L.B., President of
the University of Manitoba.
Broadcast From Coronation Boat -Train
The excitement and gaiety of the departyre on April 15 from
Windsor station, Montreal, of the C.P.R. special boat -train en route to
Saint John, N.B., with passengers proceeding to London for the
Coronation ceremonies on May 12 will be described for national net-
work listeners of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation during the
program "Night Shift," to be presented at 10.45 p.m. EST.
The boat -train will make connections with the last Coronation
sailing from Saint John and will carry among its many passengers
a number of prominent Canadians. R. T. Bowman , producer and
commentator of the "Night Shift" series, is planning to interview
them as to their plans while in London. Mr. Bowman, who will be
assisted by four observers, three of whom will be stationed at differ-
ent points throughout the train, also plans a tack with the engineers,
porters and others. The last words of the broadcast will be made by
a commentator located in the C.P.R. control tower, about a quarter
of a mile outside the station, who will describe the safe routing of
the train out of, Montreal
Gaily coloured flags and buntings will bedeck the train as it
makes its departure for the Maritime harbour where .hundreds of
Coronation passengers will converge from all parts of Canada and
the United States. The train will be one of the longest, it is expect-
ed, ever assembled for ,such a journey.
Coronation News
Seventeen special programs in connection with the forthcoming
Coronation of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, will originate
in the Toronto studios of the CBC during the next five weeks. The
production staff and artists, musical directors, script writers and
arrangers are at work on this elaborate assignment which will bring
to Canadian listeners interesting commentary, vivid dramatic inci-
dents, and magnificent music in honour of the solemn, splendid and
colourful' ceremony which takes place in Westminster Abbey on
May 12.
Prgctically every type of program now being broadcast on the
regular CBC schedule will be influenced by the forthcoming Corona-
tion. In addition to the more elaborate dramatic and musical pre-
sentations there will be numerous short features including talks on
the various aspects of the ceremony, its origin and ancient customs.
Books which have been written and published in connection with the
crowning of the new King, and music' specially composed for those
who have worn the Crown in the past, interesting sidelights on the
preparations now well under way for what is expected to be the most
impressive coronation in the history of the British people, as well as
strange anecdotes out of past centuries, all will be presented to the
listening public.
Early in. May, Dr. Stanley Russell, known for his brilliant dis-
cussions on the CBC "The Broken Arc" series, will be heard speaking
on "The Coining Coronation." His associate on the lecture series,
13. K. Sandwell, will review his impressions of the Coronation scene
as presented over the national network on the actual day of the cere-
monies. Professor J. F. Macdonald will be presented in a special
{'Book Review," Jack Kannawin and Harriett M. Ball will be heard
to brief commentary programs, and Mr. John Alford has been invited
to speak, on "Canadian Art at the Coronation Exhibition."

Address of Major Wood Clearly Outlines How the)
Plan Works and What Can Be Done.
At a recent meeting held in Clinton
to discuss the Home Improvement
Plan, Major Wood of London, spoke
as follows:
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen:
I am happy to have this privilege
to meet with you on this occasion
because of the fact that you are giv-
ing attention to a project which will1
improve business and create employ-,
meat,
I bring to you greetings from Lon-
don. We are intensely interested in
all that contributes to the upbuilding
of the County of Huron and the splen-
did communities therein.
Your eight incorporated towns, in-
cluding your choice community of
Clinton, and villages, your sixteen
townships, and your 7,368 occupied
farms are of the finest and we hope
sincerely that continued progress may
be yours.
There is noting new about the sub-
ject "The Home Improvement Plan"
other than the easier method of ,fin-
ancing, concerning which your bank-
er will be glad to enlighten you.
It is a plan through which all are
bound to benefit. In other words the
benefits are not confined just to the
few.
With improving economic conditions
we all have cause for gratefulness.
Think of these things:
Steel production is 15 per cent bet-
ter than last year.
T h e production o 1 automotive
vehicles is this year scheduled for a
881/4 per cent increase over 1936.
The January 1937E production for
the automotive industry as a whole
was up 50 per cent.
Building permits are 26. per cent a-
head of a year ago.
The sale of special building mater-
ials is The demand gfor electrical increases. power is
resulting in records _ being constantly
broken.
We have had a 41 per cent increase
in copper exports, and a gain of 117
per cent in lumber shipments.
The saw mills of Huron County are
contributing to this gain.
Carloadings` are running well ahead
of the past year.
Western Ontario, on a per capita
basis, is leading in increases, and we
are hoping, through the building and
construction industry, to further im-
prove business and to increase em-
ployment.
Public opinion is in favor of the
construction of new houses and the
improvement of.homes.
Will the one hundred' per cent co-
operation of all citizens we shall have
this year in Western Ontario. over
$7,000,000 invested in remodelling and
repairing.
Let us each and all do our part by
putting the spirit of faith into action.
The construction industry has eon
tributecl largely to the prosperity of
our country and has provided the
sources of a large portion of our na-
tional income.
Certainly no more effective means
can be found through which to im-
prove business and to provide work..
A campaign for modernizing is
thoroughly practical because it is.
needed and economically justified.
Our Canadian Government has re-
cognized there is extensive need for
the modernizing and the repairing of•
homes.
1 It is generally recognized that many
,houses, structurally sound and- well
situated, are in a run-down condition,
The extent of this need cannot be
accurately shown statistically, but
visual evidence of the need for mod-
ernization can be obtained easily by
only a superficial observation of cer-
tain sections of any Canadian com-
munity.
Through home -modernizing, values
are maintained and even enhanced in•
excess of actual expenditures.
Modernizing is a continuing annual'
requirement and should be encour-
aged, and' in, this way standards of
living will gradually be raised anct
regular employment assured.
While homebuilding requires long-
time financing, modernizing can eas-
ily be met through relatively short-
time loans.
Modernizing, buildings having sound'
values will change many from losing
to profitable investments, and will of-
fer opportunities for immediate em-
ployment.
Improvement increases the value,
of houses. This is of decided impor
tante to those who loan money.
When a room is improved women
folk immediately discover the need of
new curtains, a rug, furniture, or•
some other merchandise. All such
calls create jobs. With more people'
at work more business will be done
by all.
Then again experience has shown
that for every dollar obtained on loan
an additional four dollars is expended'
by'those able to do so without loans.
Or in other words Uy those able to^
pay cash for the jobs they have done.
Thushome improvement which is
related to so many industries, is one -
of the increasing businesses which is
going to cause and maintain a lengthy
period of prosperity.
Every person can think of at least
one improvement, that would make his,
or her home a more comfortable place
in which to live.
Just stop for a moment and run
over. a few of the things that you
could do.
Perhaps a new furnace to replace,''
the one that seems to require more,
fuel each winter; , air conditioning:'
equipment; new plumbing and light-
tng fixtures; a coat of paint inside
and out; an extra loom in attic . or.
basnient for recreation or study; thea'
insulation of walls and ceiling; etc:.
