After every Perry Mason sea- son for the past few years there have been announcements that this was the end of the court- room wizard. Then, denials would come through and one never really knew whether Mason would show up on the screen until each year's fall schedule started. It looks like May 22 is the end with an episode entitled "The Case of the Final Fade - Out" in which the creator of Mason, Erle Stanley Gardner, will play the judge and mem- bers of the regular production crew will appear, along with Gail Patrick Jackson, the exe- cutive producer. The program will continue over the summer period on some CBC stations and on CTV's Channel 13 in Kitchener with a series of repeat episodes telecast during the last season. :k :R * Latest figures released by Nielsen Company show there are 9,440 color sets in use in the area of Western Ontario. This figure is not as low as one would expect, when you con- sider the fact that Canadian stations will not be color -cast- ing officially until October 1 of this year. This date should be pushed ahead so that Canadian TV sta- tions can compete with Amer- ican channels. Right now, these nine thousand sets are be- ing tuned in daily to the Buf- falo or Cleveland stations, de- pending on the individual's lo- cation in Western Ontario. Some TV stations are now ready to send color pictures into Canadian homes. Let's bring spring and summer color to Canadian viewers immedi- ately.

ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS SUGAR AND SPICE by Bill Smiley THIS FAM/LY TAXES US ALL All across Canada these days, municipal councils have been wrestling with the arch -villain of all time, a mysterious mon- ster called The Budget. Although he is made up from a combination of cone r e t e things like sewers and schools and streets, The Budget him- self is an abstract thing. He is like The Devil. You can't see him or hear him or even smell him, You can't really understand him, but you know he is there. a blind, maligant creature that cannot be Con- trolled. You can fight him—and get a bloody nose. You can ham- mer at him, chisel at him, chop at him — and all you get are a broken hammer, a dull chisel and a blunted axe. The Budget is like an octo- pus. He grows bigger every year. His appetite increases, his tentacles become longer and stronger and more strang- ling as he grows. And when you try to come to grips with him he exudes a cloud of black (or red) ink which obscures him from view. Of what ingredients is The Budget composed? Really, he's a two -headed monster, a regu- lar Siamese twin. On the one hand, it is just a big bundle of sugar and spice: new schools; new industries; a new Iibrary or community centre; wider streets; better lighting; sewage disposal and snow plowing. Progress, cul- ture, Civilization, comfort. At first glance it appears that The Budget is the most desirable thing man has dreamed up since The Devil. And on the other hand, he is snags and snails and puppy dog tails. That's what little towns are made of. And big towns, too. And the reason for all this, of course, is that The Budget, this big, ugly, unmanageable brute who is impervious to human feeling, fell in love, by some chemical accident, while a mere hulking lunk of .a boy, with a girl called Milly Rate, Most of us know her as Mill. She is just as unprepossess- ing as her husband. She is steely -eyed, relentless, unscrup- ulous and absolutely without mercy, charm, pity, looks, or any of the qualifies we norm• ally associate with that lovely creature known as the female of the species. I have known Mill Rate since she was a girl, and 1 am here to state, without apology, that she is a pig. It's difficult to believe that such a union could produce EUB Women Are Host to Daughters The regular monthly meeting of the Evangelical WSWS was held last Thursday evening with the daughters as guests. Mrs. M. Hoffman opened the meeting with the singing of a hymn and prayer. Piano solos were rendered by Joan Finkbeiner and Nelson McClinehey; vocal duet by the Bierling sisters, and piano duets by Mrs. Harvey Pfaff and daughter. Reading were given by Mrs. N. Co r r iv eau and Mrs, D. OBrien. The Scripture was read by Mrs. Mary Hey. A mission playlet was pre- sented by Mrs. 0. Greb, Mrs, Earl Horner, Mrs. J. McClin- ohey, Mrs. M. Brown, Donald Oesch and Rev. M. Shatto. Mrs, Shatto convened the business session, and a dainty lunch was served by the com- mittee in charge. mum Petroleums Limited Gasoline • Diesel HEATING OILS Valvoline and Veedol Motor Oil and Greases "Go With Arrow" ROBERT N. McKINLEY AGENT: DiAL 236-4830 ZURICH Nowsimminimmosisimaiimmuss progeny. But it did. His name is Taxes. Taxes' career has been about what you would expect from such parents. He was an un- pleasant child from the begin- ning. Unwanted, unloved, re- jected at every turn, whiney, demanding. He hasn't changed much, ex- cept that he's grown. He is now a big slob, over -fed, under - worked, menacing if he doesn't get his allowance right on time, sulky if some of it is held back. But he has a lot of promise, Around election time, He's going to cut the lawn and wash the car, and paint the trim and smarten the old place up so you wouldn't know it. But somewhere along the line, something goes haywire. He cuts the trees, paints the lawn, and washes the lake, and figures, after one year, that his allowance is not big enough. For some reason — and it certainly isn't his winning per- sonality — Taxes has become the most -talked -about man in town. Mayors develop dyspep- sia, councillors coronaries, when they try to deal with the de. linquent. They can't quite handle him.. He talks so glibly of govern ment grants on outdoor toilet systems under the winter works program, and potential pot- holes in the roads, and (with a heart -rendering sob) of the peo- ple on welfare, that he bam- boozles councillors with eyes like agates, and mayors with hearts of granite. All I can say is that the mu- nicipal councils have my bless- ing as they strive to cope with Taxes, out of Mill Rate and The Budget.
