Four Blyth Young Men Escape Almost Certain Death in Sunday Morning Crash' An accident early Sunday, morn- ing at the southern outskirts of Blyth sent -four Blyth young mon to the hogprtal: The 'car, driven by -George 'MoClinohey, }apparently failed to negotiate the turn com• ing into town at the Elliott bus lines building and swerved into the ditch on the west side of Highway No, 4, The vehicle con- tinued up the ditch for a consider. able distance -before coming to a halt inside the fence on the field owned by Edward Watson, Two of the young men were ap. Itarently thrown from the car and it took several hours of work to release the other two from the wreckage, Miracuously none were killed, The three youths riding with Me.

George was kept in hospital until Monday to undergo treatment for head and back injuries, John is still a. patient in Clint. on Hospital and will probably re• main so for considerable time as 'he suffered a fractured vertebrae in Ills hack, It was necessary to remove Don to hospital in London for treatment on a severely injured arm muscle, along with head in- juries.

No, 07 Single Copies Six Cents ... AT LAST! So what's all the cheerin about around the old Standard of Tice these days? Well, that' right, you guessed it. Holiday time has finally arrived! We don't want do leave you with the impression that we're lazy or anything, but goldarnit we are really looking forward to two weeks away from the daily grind — what with all of the hot, humid weather we have been hay. ing for the past, several days, But never fear folks, it's going to cool off for the next couple of weeks at least. It will probably get hotter than old hades again along about the last week in Aug- ust. As you probably know, we usu- ally take the first two weeks in August for our holidays, but an excess of job printing has held us up a week, And from the weather conditions so far this week, we probably .should have continued on schedule anyway. 13ut as we ail know, there is al. ways enough work piled up when one returns from holidays with - amt leaving a pile of it when you leave. We haven't really anything fancy planned for the two weeks. ;Just a lazy fow days around the cottage near Bayfield doing just what we've been wanting to do every day for the past fifty weeks, Namely golfing, swimming and boating, then golfing boating, golf• ing, golfing, wimming, `golfing, ;;offing and boating, in that order. It's going to be great, you know. We'll sit around one day making plans for all, of the work to e done. the next. And glen just sitting, aropnd the, next clay with the feet up: she-ing,' readintantl.: giving orders to the "better half" and clucking from the punches. It's our first holiday since the young lad has been able to get g about and fend for himself a - bit, He's fourteen months old s now and just full of pep, vim and vigor. He really seems to enjoy cottage life and loves to frolick around in the water, So we prob- ably should have dhanged the , word golfing to baby in tile fore• going paragraph. But anyway he's great fun and we enjoy every minute of it. We also plan to get in a few visits with friends during the two week interval. Visits, we might add, that we have been meaning to make for quite some time now and just neverseem to get around to it. On the top of the list are , our good friends in Sarnia, Cliff and Marie Walsh. So throw out red shingle -- or carpet — Cliff, We'll be coming around the corn• er one of these days. We don't mean to get t`oo'°per. sonal In these little writeups, but just thought it a good chance to warn Cliff to sharpen up that old golf game, Although we'd better not shout too loud, he's liable to sic the young lad on us. Layton has been caddying at the Sarnia Golf and County Club now, and with his size and this experience,. could probably makeus eat our words, While speaking of Cliff, there's an extremely good show making the rounds of local theatres now which tells the Wold ,War II ex. ploils of his old regiment, "Tha. Essex Scottish," By all reports i' is a thrilling picture, one which every Canadian should see. The name of it is "The Devil's Bri- gade." So here we, are.:, Just windings_ things, up'. for •-�another� week. -ane: we'd better shut up or.*'ll never make those holidays. BE SEEINC YOU IN THREE WEEKS -- Aug• 1st 28th.

FROM THE MINISTER'S stUY '''here is a record of G, IL Chesterton, on one occasion sttg• gosling that when a person is interested in getting a satisfactory boarding house and starts out to look for one he frequently does not ask the right questions. Instead of asking whether the room is warm, whether the bed is comfortable and the meals satisfactory he should instead fix the land lady with a steady eye and ask her "Lady what is your complete view of the universe?" What he was suggesting was that one's whole way of conduct is determined by that which he really believes, It is fairly obvious of course that one's every action is a revelation of what he really believes, whether the individual is conscious of the fact or not. The overwhelming majority of people in our part of the world are quick to affirm their :belief in God and doubtless they are quite honest in that, But what kind of God? A first cosmic urge? A super Santa Claus? An arbitrary dietatar? A tienigh old man in the sky? A New Testament devotes a considerable amount of space to an attempt to clarify people's understanding of What Goct is like. The people with whom Jesus talked believed in God, but in many different from ,the God in whom he believed, Jesus encouraged people to address God as Father, Ile apparently believed in a God who embodied the hest qualities of fatherhood that we can comprehend. Recall his words "If you being evil can give good gifts to your children ho'ty much More shall your heavenly Father give good gifts to them that ask him," in providing good gifts "Your heavenly Cattier knows that you 'have need o1' these things," There must have been times when it was not ea$y .for Jesus to keep his faith in the goodness of God, for life for hl`tn Was no primrose path. lie clung to that faith however and the last words to pass his mortal lips were "Father into thy hands 1 'commend my Spirit." It was what Jesus believed about God that was •hack of his way of life and what We believe about God Is tire most basic thing about us, 1.1.11!!!!lilf 1111111!!!!!

Driver Drowsiness Drivers: Drowsiness behind the wheel can cost you your life. Fighting heavy eyelids with eyes just aching tp close is a dangerous struggle. If you're even a little drowsy , . . stop driving. A short rest can be amazingly refreshing. By stopping for a hot hover - age .... a short nap „ or a brisk walk you can help pre- vent a serious accident. To avoid drowsiness while driv- ing, make sure you have lots of fresh air and keep your eyes busy checking front, sides and rear. Remember . driver drowsinesscan be deadly. DON'T RUSK IT!

THE NATIONAL SCENE By Raymond Canon Strike Out 1 am one of those unfortunate people who have suffered considerable financial loss as a result of the postal strike. Having just found out that negotiations have been suspended for the time being, 1 will feel the pinch even more before it is all over. But then, having talked with numerous people on this matter, 1 have come to the conclusion that there are a considerable number who are in the same financial boat as I, and that my annoyance at seeing negotiations drag on is also shared by an increasing number of people. 1 do not argue with the postmen's right to strike. After all, they were given this right my the government,, and, whether we like it or not, they can use it as often as they wish. However, what is disturbing Is that so many innocent citizens these days have to suffer from strikes, to say nothing of the loss which the postal workers, among others, will undergo, since they have no strike pay coming in, What this walkout and all the others we have seen .this year does make one wonder if there is a superior way of settling wage disputes than resorting so often to strikes. When the cost of all the strikes in one year is added up, it is quite evident that we are paying a high price for this right, and frankly the price has risen so high that it is about time that serious effort was made to find a substitution, One of the first places to look for a possible solution as in countries where strikes are a rarety. In this respect, one of the most notable .is Sweden whose low number of strikes should make us green with envy. While the Swedes do not have all the answers, it is worth the effort to study how they go about it, and see if something workable might be implemented here. After all it was from Scandinavia that we got the idea of the ombundsman, an independent official to whom private citizens can appeal If they think they have been unjustly treated by the government. The Swedes have used this idea as well in their labour relations, and such is the confidence placed in these authorities that labour as Well as management adhere to their decisions. 1 also like the attitude shown by the Swiss labour unions. Not too long ago these unions decided not to ask for a reduction in the work week since such an action would only serve to lower he standard of living -- a standard that the workers had striven Bard to reach, and did not wish to upset. Judging from some of the statements made -by labour unions in this country, especially on subjects such as wage parity, working conditions, etc., such an action would be as welcome here as the proverbial skunk at a garden party. And yet it all goes to show that unions can take responsiblo attitudes, and avoid running the, risk of killing the goose that laid the golden egg. This is not to say that labour management relations In other countries are superior to those to be found in Canada. You have only to look to France and Gt. Britain to see examples o1 some of the most irresponsible action on the labour front, We must, however, get rid of the idea that we can afford wage parity with the 'United States, that we can go on demanding and receiving sizable wage increases, and that the ultimate weapon is always the strike. Strikes may have their place in wage disputes, but When fcfey consistently cause hardship 'and inflation, it is about time we found some suitable replacement, A nation that loses over 5 milltbn man - days of work in one year is certainly not functioning properly, and all of us who suffer financially or otherwise from a strike throttgh no fault of our own may well ask just how long we have to goon before sono+thing concrete is dobe. The July meeting of the Burns' U.C.W. was held at the home of Mrs. Jack 'Riley on Wednesday evening with 16 members and one visitor present. 1U's.
