!Brussels lost Last card party of
season in Cranbrook

W. are not promised skies always blue,
Flower strewn pathways all opr lives
through, a i
We are not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.
But we are promised strength for the day,
Rest for the labour, light for the way,
Grace for the trials, help from above,
Unfailing sympathy, ♦uyinrg love.

April showers are supposed to bring May
flowers but the cold snow showers we were
treated to last week were no encouragement
to coax flowers into bloom. Saturday
brightened the prospects with brilliant
sunshine and the warmth of spring in the air.
If only it continues that way without any
more of nature's chilly surprises.
Here we are with Daylight Saving Time
again. How many forgot to turn their
timepieces ahead one hour on Saturday
night, were suddenly made aware that they
were one hour behind time and had to hustle
to make it to church for morning service. The
time change makes dark mornings for early
risers and an excuse for we lazybones to turn
off the alarm and cuddle down for another
hour of sleep. It also means we can
anticipate those 10' 'Iv Ione summer even-
ings to be enjoyed outdoors.

After 18 months of study, a professor who
had been asked to head an Ontario
• commission on truck safety, has reported
that Ontario must get tougher with truck
drivers. He said they have little regard for
provincial highway speed limits; that
speeding is the most common reason for
truck accidents; there are a great many
speeding violations and they are increasing.
The report tabled by the commission in the
Ontario Legislature last week made 61
recommendations to control the problem.
What has happened to all those truckers we
believed were the most careful, and
courteous drivers on our highways?
While P.C. leadership candidates fight
among themselves, amazing other Canad-
ians with their antics, the Parti Quebecois
have had something else added to there
already burdensome troubles. Students have
been from the first, a strong foundation and
most vocal, in support of Levesque and the
P.Q. A recent survey of the voting
tendencies of university students appear to
indicate that many have lost faith in the P.Q.
and are no longer enchanted with the
government of their province.
