Prime Minister Trudeau's ego must be
bruised and bleeding these days. It is
undoubtedly hard to take when those of his
own party are openly rejecting him. An
increasing number of Liberal MPs are
demanding he resign. They insist that
without a new leader there is little hope for
the Liberal party in the election expected next
year. They claim the people want a change in
personalities.
Trudeau is now a far cry from the
"darling" of Canadians who saw him as the
hope of a bright future for Canada, The
vaunted charisma has gone. Even his own
want him out.

What will they think of next? There arc all
kinds of toothbrushes available, short ones.
long ones, straight ones, bent ones. ones with
short bristles, long bristles. in colours to
match your bathroom decor. electric ones.
Now an ingenious inventor has come up with
a musical toothbrush. If teeth arc brushed
properly it will play music for 90 seconds, the
time he considers right for a good brush. It
might intrigue kids for a time. How tiresome
would hearing that same tune several times
every day be tt it was loud though to be heard
over the slushing and spitting of brushing.

There are those who claim that Canada
Postal Service -has improved considerably.

A correctly addressed, prepaid letter, clearly
marked rush, mailed in Ottawa on a Tuesday
did not reach its destination in Seaforth until

that, by any stretch of the imagination he
called "improved" service?
People sometimes complain that living in a
small community everyone seems to know all
about you and your affairs. That is, in a way
true. Yet the general public and those we
have close association with seldom actually
poke and pry into things that arc none of their
business. It is 'just general knowledge
enhanced by the human fault of gossiping.
There are no snoopers watching our every
move. How would we like the fish -bowl
existonge of :the .members of our Royal'
fancily? All the world interested- in our
doings, ambitions, inconsiderate persons
always waiting and watching to report any
interesting morsel, even more avidly for
anything they can fan into a scandal. Then
there arc those who have been dose to them -
who, out of disappointment, injured feelings.

lice. 'rhe latest of these is the American girl
that 'Prince Andrew was involved with. It
scents the phone calls and gifts front him
have stopped. She is said to have threatened
to reveal the intimate details of their
association, If she sloes she cared little for
Prince Andrew and has little respect for
herself, It must have been the prestige and

interested in.
