The P Ia Comes to Town
Today is a day that will be remembered in Wingham
for a long time to come—the day the Prime 'Minister
.COilleti to pay us a visit.
Mt'. fit. Laurent is apparently carrying on a tradition
started before tilt' last election, when he made a large num-
ber of stops at small towns across the Dominion in the
course of his election campaign.
Whether this, means an increase in the'importance ot
small towns in the political picture or not, we don't know.
We feel sure, however, that a large number of people .,
in Wingham, grit and Tory both, will be on hand to give
him a wholehearted welcome,

Rural Dumps
Anyone who is looking around for a good work in
which to engage, would do well to consider the question
of rural dumps, and their eradication. For here is a field
in which one could labor to good purpose for a long, long
time. ,L •
Rural dumping places are to be found along almost
any concession road in the neighborhood. They are simply
places along the side of the road where people have gotten
into the habit of dumping their old tin cans, burst mat-
tresses, dead cats, bed springs and other cast -offs.
Their orig,in is a matter of conjecture, but presumably
sonic lad). and ignorant person- first threw his rubbish
there through sheer inability to find a more suitable place.
Others, seeing the litter already there, apparently haven't
the wit to realize the place isn't a proper dumping ground.
In some places you can see garbage scattered in the ditch
for a hundred yards or more,
All too often the site chosen for this outrage is the
approach to a bridge. This means that not only is the
ground around polluted, but the river also. From stand-
points of both health and beauty, the habit is a dirty one.
Probably the first step in a clean-up of these blots in the
landscape would he the establishment of proper dumping
places. These should he centrally located and, most int-
por:ant, their whereabouts made known to all.

a tune-honored election dodge. guaranteed to influence a
good many people quite a bit of the time. Everybody
wants to lower taxes, particularly on themselves, and a
lot of people would like higher taxes on the other f ell ow.
This being the case. a pledge of lower taxes is a natural
for am one who aspires to office. As a vote-get t er,
the idea is pretty hard to beat.
Unfortunately, the idea is also pretty hard to put into
practice. however simple it may appear in election promis-
es. If we wanted to scrap our national defence program,
for instance, we could cut our taxes in half. Nobody, ap-
parentl. wants to go that far. If we could manage with-
out educating, our children. or if we let the old folk shift
for thernsell, es. -we could save quite a bit *ere. too. Not
rilan re WZ.1-1: to go that far, either.

De I and Taxes
It cannot be reclaimed because it is
gone out of our keeping forever. Don't
look for the flaws as you go through
life. And even when you find -them,
it's wise and kind to be sometimes
blind and seek for the virtue behind
them.
I think one of the worst habits and
the easiest to get into and the hardest
to get out of is fault finding.
A woman told this story of when
she was a girl, which made a deep
impression on her the rest of her life.
She went to work for a woman who at
first was kind to her. Then she start-
ed to find fault with everything she
did or did not do, Then one day she
heard a neighbor woman say, "I would
make that girl work faster than she
does and get far more done or I would
not keep her, or at least pay her."
When the woman came in she slapped
the girl and said she should have had
more work done. The girl said, "You
would not have done that if that fault-
finding woman was not ruining you.'"
The woman stared in amazement at
she girl_ Then she said that a woman
said to her the other day, "You are
not nearly as nice as you used to be,
what hqe gotten into you?" she said,
"You find fault with everyone and
with every thing at any meeting you
are at."
The girl grew do womanhood, mar-
ried and raised a large family, and it
was said of her, she was never known
to find fault or say an unkind word
about any one. They used to say to
her, "Don't you ever feel like being
grouchy, or finding fault?" She said,
"Oh yes, but my heart aches for the
people who have let themselves get
into the awful habit of fault finding,
