An' watch his witehin', pibrcin' een

An' beggars, de'ils an' outty-sarks

"Stop" Signs Mean What They Say!
This is the sad case of a truck driver who failed to heed
the silent cottunind of a "stop" sign. ttesdlt — heavy
property damage . personal injuries and human

BACK TO THE BASIS' -
Through all the noise and corn-
-motion entailed in the selection Of a
neiv leader at the Liberal convention
in Ottawa last week, one strong
thought finally emerged, One of the
important delegates. from' Winnipeg
gained almost universal support
from the floor of the convention
when he demanded‘ that the officers
of the Liberal, organizafnin be se-
lected from the rank And file
hers rather than from the NIP's and
Senators. ,
The delegate was expressing, of
course, nothing more than the elec-
tors of the ctumtry made clear last
June, The Liberal party' 'andthe
Liberal government had, through
the long years of administrative
power and re-election, grown a little
too far removed from the ordinary
Citizen.
