Executive Director of the Canadian Federa- tion of Mayors and Municipalities) Recently, I ran into a business-. man from a certain southwestern Ontario town. We occupied adjoin- ing seats in a parlor car en route to Toronto. He was beaded for Ot- tawa and I was returning to Mont- real after ,attending the annual meeting of the Canadian Federa- tion of Mayors and Municipalities held at London, Ontario. We got to talking, and' when I told him where I'd been be let loose a blast of verbiage that shot the temperature of the car up at least ten degrees. "Mayors, city governments!" he bellowed. "There isn't an honest mayor in the country! They're all in it for what they can get out of t! Not one of them couldrun a out the thhinking of a lot of people who tack like that. "City halls," he scowled. "We ought to shut them up! City offic- ials! Fire the lot! They're just a bunch of pint-sized functionaires . Ottawa and the provinces aren't much. better; but. for my money, I'd have them run every city aiid town in the country. City government is a waste of money, a mess -pot of inefficiency and petty eorrul t ion." When he'd shot his bolt I turn- ed to him, and for the next hour and a half he hadn't. a chance to get a word in edgewise. "The government .of your city and mine It him is morn nr successful business. 'That's why 1 they're mayors! Second-rate, third- rate fellows; some of them scoun- t drels!" I grimaced but held my peace.] j I'd met up with this kind of per- son before. For a quarter of a cen- tury, I've been trying to straighten ess a mirror that reflects the kind of people who live there, the at itude they have towards the om- munity and their willingness to ump in and work together for the ort of community they would like o have. Municipal government is he instrument bh,at is set up to do his for them. If i1 fails, the fault isn't in the mechanism, it's in the •ieople who operate it; and, if they fail, it's in the people who put hem there. "It's as simple and clean-cut as that." i liskcd him if he'd voted at the last civic election. He shook his head, but before he could give me his excuse I softened his embar- rassment by telling him he was in good, company. On an average, not more than one out of every four civic voters went to the polls to help elect their municipal govern- ments last year. I asked him if he'd taken a hand, at all to help nominate a candidate for this municipal council or to help get him elected. He shrugged a negative "what's the use?"; and tlien I reminded shim that if h Church, Hullett, on Saturday af- ternoon for the weddings of Lois Marjorie Jamieson, Reg.N., and William George Le Souder. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert. L. Jamieson, R.R. 1 Londesboro, and the bridegroom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. D. F. Le Souder, 301 Front St., Stratford Rev. S. H. Brenton, pastor of the church, officiated at the ceremony. The •wedding music was played by Mrs. Douglas Gill, Grand (lend who accompanied the soloist. Mr. Douglas Gill, who sang, "I'11 Walk Beside You," immediately before the ceremony, and "Beca.use" dur- ing the signing of the register. Given in marriage by her father, the bride was attired in a gown of white slipper satin with yoke of silk net and fitted bodice and lily - point sleeves. The full skirt, drap- ed in font, was edged with French lace and fell into a slight train. Her .finger-tip veil of silk illusion was held in place by a halo of lace, and she carried a bouquet of red roses with white streamers. Mrs. H. J. Donald, sister of the bride, attended As matron of hon- or, wearing a floor -length gown of mauve nylon marquisette over tat' - feta, with tucked bodice and lull skirt. Miss Jean Le Souder, sister of the bridegroom, as junior brides maid, wore a gown of yellow silk net over taffeta with embroidered bolero, early wearing a heal rens matching their gowns, and carried bouquets of Talisman roses. The best man was Mr. Edward Le Sou -' der, Stratford, -while the ushers were Mr. James. Jamieson and Mr. Leonard Le Souder, brothers of the bride and bridegroom, respec- tively. A reception for 70 guests follow- ed at the home of the bride's par ents, the bride's mother wearing a dress of mid blue crepe with lire ir'm,m'ng.

(Continued on Page 4) the sum total of the somebody I elses who did determined who ran for public office and who got elect- ed. Did he ever go to a city council meeting? I asked. He laughed: "I wouldn't waste my time . , A few more paring questions like that and then I brought up my heavy artillery, Mr. Jones" I said (Jones or Smith or Black or Brown, it doesn't matter, most of us Canadians— three out of every four—are more or less like my friend in the par- lor car), "Mr. Jones, let's get a Sew things straight" i4 put my hand on his knee and talked to him like. a Dutch uncle. "Have you ever stopped to figure what municipal governments do? For inat.'rnce, they collect your gar- bage because it isn't hygienic to pave your streets so that you can keep it around your house. They go to your office in your car; and v:hen it's icy, they sand them; and when it snows. they plough them. 'They sweep them in summer, and at night they light them. They keep guard over your family and Protect your property. They see that you get water fit to drink, and they keep the sewers clear so that your family and your store and your factory and your streets are tree from contamination. "They fight your battles for you. They see that you're not charged more than you should pay for your telephones and for your lights and for your bus fares. They see that you get ten gallons of gas from the pump when you ask for it and 2 000 pounds of coal in every ton. They see that you get pure milk and that there are no typhoid germs in the oysters that you buy. They plant trees on the city's streets and flowers in the parks. They check up on your wife's hair dresser to make sure that she is physically fit, and on the waitress in your favorite restaurant to pro- tect your food. They give band con- certs in the summer, and see that. your kids have a place to skate in the winter. W.O.A.A.
