JOHN W. HANNA
REPORTS
The present session in Toronto
seems to he developing into a pre-
election session, with five by-elec-
tions well spread across Ontario,
set for January. The decision of
the Roberts government to hold
these by-elections early in the new
year was a necessary one, but also,
a bold one for a new administra
tim Both Opposition parties have
begun concentrating on issues
which they hope will give them am-
munition for their campaigns while,
of course,: the government has been
endeavoring to put its best foot
forward for the same reason.
A number of Bills already intro-
duced into the House indicate a
streamlining of government de-
partments and procedures as well
as measures which will certainly
tend to assist eontinued develop-
ment of our economy, The stand-
ing' committees of the House have
been established and have already
begun their important work. It is
interesting to note that most of this
session's -committee chairmen are
younger Conservative members.
Prominent among those heading
important committees are James
A. C. Auld, M.P.P., (Leedel for
Private Bills, George E. Gomrne,
M.P,P. (Lanark) for Municipal
Law and R, K, McNeil, M.P.P. (El-
gin), as chairman of the Commit-
tee on Agriculture.
A great amount of talk was heard
in •the Legislature, and a great
many words appeared in the To-
ronto press, about organized crime
in Ontario. The leader of the Op-
position made an impassioned at-
tack upon Attorney-General Ro-
berts on this issue and was repaid
in kind, Prime MiniSter Roberts
once again reiterated the govern-
ment's view that our Canadian po-
lice forces were, and are, on top,
of the growing problem of criminal
activity, especially in our larger ur-
ban centres, and that any necessary
further action would be promptly
and decisively taken.
On Friday there was released by
Metro Chairman Fred G. Gardiner
and Municipal Affairs Minister
Fred M, Cass, a report on the or-
ganization and administration of
the Municipality of Metropolitan
Toronto prepared by provincial
government officials at 'the request
of Metro council, The impending
retirement of. Chairman Fred Gar-
diner has created a most unstable
situation with, respect to Ontario's
greatest urban concentration of
people and municipalities which it
is hoped the new study will help
the council to correct without in-
tervention by the provincial gov- , ernment.
Check tire pressures before start-
ing on a trip. Under-inflated tires
make steering difficult, cause driver

of one operator we heard about recently
who received a call in the middle of
July requesting to speak to the bearded old gentleman at the
North Pore. "At this time of the year?" asked the operator in
amazement. "Yes," replied the young voice, "I just found one of
his boots in Dad's closet. I thought he might need It before next
Christmas."

Children get bored during the
Christmas season.
Sure, Christmas is a season of
excitement for the young ones. The
trouble is they get so excited wait-
ing for Santa to come that they be-
come impatient and need something
to occupy their time.
The wise mother will give them
something to do,
Children enjoy making things
with their hands. They are anxious
to-help decorate the house and the
tree,
Many parents brush them aside,
saying, "You are too little"---- and
the children are left with their
boredom,
Give the kids a chance to help.
Put them to work with a cookie
cutter, Draw simple designs on
cardboard for them to cut out and
dolor. Let them paint holiday mes-
sages on boiled eggs with water
colors.
