',a:Os/Idea would seem to point to
ca r,°413t that the blame for motor se-

e -
e n lies not with the cars them-

'teem, either from •behind the wheel
ar from the back seat.
No doubt every driver who started
silk on a -week end trip had right in
the front of his mind the fact that
owing to the civic holiday, week end
traffic, always heavy, would perhaps
&4e doubled, and on this account de-
termined to be a careful driver.
And it payed, This carefulness
saved the lives of no one knows how
many -it always does pay. A car is
no place for a fool, whether he be a
driver or a passenger. There will be
no safety on the public highways un-
til the reckless and the crazy driver
are barred and their permits perman-
ently cancelled. And ,the sooner it
takes place, the better.
it pay? And the answer to this
question in all but a few minds would
be a most emphatic No. That is
wrong. Big corporations like banks
and insurance companies or railroads
and large wholesale and retail stores
are not, as a rule, very charitably in-
clined. They don't work for human-
ity alone. Yet in these institutions,
a yearly vacation for all employees
is an established custom.
Big business does not give its em-
ployees a two weeks' vacation each
summer because it is a nice, a kind
or a Christian thing to do, but be-
cause experience has taught that a
vacation is necessary if efficient ser-
vice is to be maintained. In other
words that it pays.
There is no bigger business than
farming, but too often it lacks the
organization and improved methods
that spell success in other lines of
endeavor. A yearly vacation for both
the farmer and the boy would go a
long way in changing that by giving
them a better and more frequent op-
portunity of seeing how the other fel-
low does it.
OS THIIS TIROL ?
In Wednesday's Globe a letter ap-
peared in the People's Column, writ-
ten from Bowmanville by a man. who
said in part:
"When I passed through a summer
resort called Grand Bend, a couple of
hours' run from Sarnia, I saw more
than a half dozen of American flags
flying from the hotel and a large one
at the mast head on the golf course
sand no sign of a British or Canadian
anrblem in the vicinity."
Is that true? There are hundreds
of American visitors at Grand Bend
every year and if the American flag
is much in evidence, it may be an
evidence of the citizen's intention of
paying a compliment to these Ameri-
can visitors.
International
rules that a foreign flag may not be
flown separately or above the national
flag of that particular country, which
in this case happened to be Canada.
If the statement of this writer is
true, no matter what the intention of
the citizens of Grand Bend may have
been, the result is a very doubtful
compliment to American visitors, be-
cause there is something very insin-
cere in the actions Df a man who will
boost a foreign country at the ex-
pense of his own.
We are inclined to the belief, how-
ever, that this writer must have been
jest a little too critical. Grand Bend
is too good a summer resort. and its
.citizens are too good Canadians and
too wide awake business men to de-
liberately fall into such an errcr. It
must have been an accident.

members of the K.Y.P.S. met to finish
the hoeing of the beans and at the
conclusion a weiner roast was enjoy-
ed in Mr. W. Kyle's field, down by
the river -side. Even nature seemed
in tune as the northern lights in won-
derful splendour shot darts of flame
from the Northern horizon. The ever
changing play of shooting lights prov-
ed very interesting and awe-inspiring
to all. Games and a sing -song around
the camp fire was followed by the
roasting of weiners in the glowing
coals and these were accompanied by
other pleasing delicacies. A short
speech from the president, Miss J.
lvison, and the hearty singing of
God Save the King brought the pleas-
ant evening to a close. -The regular

FARM BOYS AND
HOU DAYS
The St. Thomas Times -Journal and
the Toronto Globe have been discuss-
ing, through .their editorial columns,
the right of a farm boy to a holiday
like other boys.
In this connection the St. Thomas
paper says:
Unless he has this advantage at
least annually he cannot become the
sort of citizen that the present day
demands. For a boy to labor six days
in the week from sun to sun, no mat-
ter how useful his work may be, is
to ensure his becoming narrow, self -
'centred, dull, stale, and dissatisfied.
Nor is it sufficient to send the farm
boy for a visit to some of his rela-
tives. Such a visit may do good. but
is quite as likely to prove harmful.
To this the Globe adds:
It is just as true when applied to
the farmer or the farm boy that all
work and no play makes Jack a dull
boy. For years there has been an
outcry about the exodus of young men
and women from the country to the
town, and many harrowing stories
have been told of farms deserted and
forsaken because the young people
had left them for the bright lights of
the city. There may be many rea-
sons to account for this condition.
May not one of them be this lack of
a regular holiday in the life of the
-farm boy?
Both papers are right because there
can lee no question of the truth of
the saying that all work and no play
snakes Jack a dull boy. At the same
time most farmers would find it an
.almost impossible task to give their
%boys a vacation in vacation time.
Vacation time in cities and towns
is harvest time in the country. And
harvests are like time and tides, they
wait tar no man. When the harvest
is ripe, it has to be garnered or the
-farmer has lost a year's. work and a
large slice of his capital and farming
is not such a lucrative profession that
it will stand much of that sort of
rosinesse
ut there are other seasons of the
'year besides summer, that would
are just as well for vacation pure.
