Follows These Rules of : CARE and •SAFETY!.. Christmas Trees are filled with pitch and resin and • when dry can easily ignite and turn into a roaring flame. To prevent this, keep your tree fresh .and green by putting it into a container of water, or water mixed with sand. Cut the trunk diagonally at the end above original cut. Be sure water is kept above the cut. Ornaments on the tree can be dangerous, too! Don't use cotton or paper on the trees unless flame -proof. Never use lighted candles on the trees, or nearby. Keep ash trays and cigarettes away from the tree. Remove piles of opened gift wrappings. Do not place electric trains around the tree. Be sure the tree is kept away from. an open fireplace or heater. Check lighting sets for frayed wires, loose connections and broken sockets. Don't plug too many cords into, one out- let. If any extensive wiring is planned, call an electrician— don't try to do it yourself! Last of all, 'Lights Out' when you leave home and when you retire for the evening. REMEMBER! Nothing can render these displays absolutely safe, and that if accidents are not to mar the festive season, constant vigilance and care must be exercised. To the Citizens of Seaforth and District We Extend Best Wishes for a Happy Holiday Season! SEAFORTH FIRE BRIGADE R. J. BOUSSEY, Secretary' JOHN F. SCOTT, Fire Chief • A Turning ay RAY ARGYLE -1. The Nineteen Sixties, 'which began as a decade of promise and achievement, will be half over when the New Year ushers in 1965. A half decade has slipped by in a train of. great events. And very few of the world's(I three and one-half bil- lion pepple have been unaffect- ed by , the swirl of change around us. The 1960s, the prophets told us, was to be a hard, challeng- ing decade. But it was also to be a decade of fulfillment, when man's science would be put to work more successfully than ever. in combatting man's old problems, of war, poverty and disease. It also was to be the decade inwhich man would break free of his primitive earth -bound ex- istence, and leap outward to the stars. Read by these guideposts, then, is the promise being ful- filled? The answer can be only yes, that the promise is being ful- filled, and that perhaps this is one of those few decades that mark genuine turning points on the high road of history. The break from the past con- tinues apace, not just in time but in achievement. The ar- rival of 1965 puts the world closer to the year 2,000 than to 1929. And as radically differ- ent as the world is today from 1929, changes of the next 35 years will be vastly greater than of the past three and one-half decades. The 1960s opened with man's first flight into' space, the orbit- ing of the earth by Russia's Yuri Gagarin, In that same first year ofthe decade a man who seemed to personify this exciting and challenging era, John F. Kennedy, was elected president of the United States. His brief span of office ended in shock and tragedy, but not before it was clearly demon- strated that nuclear war is not inevitable. T h e• accomplish- ments of the Kennedy admini- stration in moving the world away from the enforced con- formity of one .great power or another, and toward a world of diversity among peoples and nations, are yet to be fully ap- preciated. The 1960s have marked at the same time, the end of monoli- thic Communism. No single Communist super state, be it Russia or China; is any longer able to .dominate all other Com- munist states. There is this same parallel in . the West, where the U.S: can no longer automatically expect its chief allies, notably France, to rub- ber stamp its every whim. The other'great, political de- velopment of these few years” has been the final emergence of former colonial countries as in- dependent nations. In numbers, they now form a majority in the United Nations. They are. still as children, these new countries. But in the main they represent col"bred peoples, who have achieved their independ- ence at the same time as the racial revolution in the United States reached its peak. The world is already quite a different place from 1960. With the exception of De . Gaulle's France and 'Mao's China, the old post-war Leadership has fad- ed out. It is gone in Russia, in Britain, in Germany, in the A burglar who had entered a poor farmer's house around midnight woke.• up the farmer.

"Let me get up and light a match," said the farmer, "and I'll hunt with you," 4 hit U.S., in Canada, and in most other countries - A new generation which has not personally known war is coming into its majority in the 4960s. This new generation is not yet of leadership age.But it is already making its will felt in the social and political patterns of the day. There can be optimism in 1965. Our problems are as great —one half the world hungry,' the . other half struggling to bring its social and political outlook abreast of its scientific achievement. Bit they are not insoluble.

Wrife to Canadian social worker Doris Clark in care of this newspaper. BETTER SAVE. YOUR REPUTATION DEAR DORIS—I met a police- man about 28 who is quite nice. He took me out, and I found he was fun to be with, and it was surprising how interested we are' in the same things. Then people said he was mar- ried and living with another woman! I asked him, and he explained that he and his wife are parted, and he has a house- keeper who looks after his four children. We seem to be made for each other, but if people see us -,to- gether they might think I'm going with a married man. But I sort of feel he needs someone to be by his side. TWENTY-ONE DEAR TWENTY-ONE—Well, aren't you going with a mar- ried man? And one who de- ceived you into being interest- ed in him? Better break away while there is still something left of your reputation — and your virtue! DEAR DORIS—Last week I was at a wedding, and we danced. I was never so embar- rassed in my life. My hands were so clammy and wet from perspiration it wasn't funny. Could you give me some pointers on how to avoid this embarrassment? DANCING BRIDESMAID DEAR BRIDESMAID — Carry a handkerchief or tissue in the hand which holds your part- ner's, to absorb the moisture. Or wear a short white glove while dancing. Use an anti- perspirant at other perspira- tion points.• DEAR DORIS — Too much church seems to be threatening the serenity of our home. My husband is out at church meet- ings so often I am beginning to think•of him as a star boarder. The average is five nights a week. If I ask for the slightest help with an errand or -the children, he never has time. I'm beginning to lose the in- terest I have in my home and myself. GREEN PASTURE WIDOW DEAR GREEN — It happens in the best . of families. And When a wilting church horse is Just A Guy Who Can't Say No, who in the ch rch will call a halt? He'sthe one who must maintain a balance. It hasn't occurred to him that marriage is a sharing, That if he and his children are to become gooti pals, they need his gift of time and love, And so do you. My minister suggests your minister be your counsellor; perhaps after one more try at getting your husband's ear. TO CHRISTMAS STOCKINGS --In1a message to the Canadian Save The Children Fund, Father Olivier of Viet Nam says: "Keep the Canadian Christmas stock- ings coming. Even if they come in the middle of summer, these packages do something wonder- ful for the children." This stocking may be the only gift a child receives. If your group wants to work towards next Christmas, 'write to me for the instruction sheet about making the stockings, what to put in, where to send them. Deadline is June. They go to many corners of the globe. MEM Y •• « 7 7 • .4% .,, .. N,, . ,s, • y,.
