SACRIFICE, IS EVIDENT
' Many of US who never move too
far out of the routine course of life
may 'be inclined to believe that those
Who seek or are called to the higher
offices of governnient have Simply
risen to• the privileged positions n
our reasonable well-to-do nation, Big
salaries and the right to give orders
to others seem, from this distance,
to spell:0dt a pretty nice existence,
The stiddent death of 'Canada's
3ni1lister for external affairs, Dr„,
Sydney Smith, is proof of the -fact
that high office is anything but a
bed of roses. Though one can he
certain, it. is more than likely that
the strain and worry of a most de-
manding position hastened the ltll-
timely passing of this very able man.
Had Dr. Smith retriained at his
former post in -university work, he
might have lived a much longer life.
The statement of such a possibil-
ity is not merely conjecture, for in
our time we have seen the same
thing happen to other world leaders.
Think, for instance of the sudden
aging and death of rra.nklin Roose-
velt; Joseph Stalin. The illness of
President riserthower and. Anthony ,
Eden. Winston Churchill alone
seems to have survived the strain of
high office without detrinctental
effects.
There may have been a day when
leadership in world affairs stimu-
lated and enriched a man's life, but
there has been a great change during
this present century. With the
threat of new and ever more horrible
wars hanging over us all, the leaders
must live under a type of pressure
which is deeply destructive to their
minds and bodies. rew of us would
be willing, :knowingly, to make the
.sacrifices which are demanded,
educate a retarded child as it does to
educate a normal one.
A new bill to cover the increased
grants,.allOW*s. school boards.to pro-
vide buildings and, equipment for re-
tarded children with local associa-
tions operating such school's; or their
operation by school boards.
The minister of education told
members of the .Nanaimo school
hoard amt he hoped they would hot
be .too hasty abOut taking over the
operation of schools for the retarded
because the local associations for re-
tarded children ,are doing an excel-
lent job. Ile aded that the increas-
edgrants 'are, in effect, an incentive
for' these associations to continue
their, work.
In Ontario, where the work of
associations for retarded children
are doing an .excellent job, similar
recognition of their great worth to
the community as a whole would in-
deed be welcome.

DST STILL MESSED UP
• Recently 'Charles MacNaughton;
South Huron, addressed
the Legilatrtre on. the need for pro,,
• viintial.. government action on the
problem:-of daylight saving time. It
is to be hOped that his words will he
folloWed by some concrete action,
for it would be hard to imagine any-
thing More thoroughly messed up
than-time changes in Ontario.
The thorniest part of the entire
question will not arise until next fall,
when some municipalities will revert
to :s_taridard. time at the end of Sep-
tember and the remainder at the end
Jd October. As a consequence we
wasee a repetition-of tangled school
transportation and shopping sche-
dules.
Women's Institutes all over On-
tario -have been circulating a strong
ly-eworded resolution asking that
daylight time be abolished alto
gether, It is doubtful that complete
abOhtiort will take place because, to
State the case quite .simply, there are
more, people who want than ,there
are who don't want it. We have all
sympathy for farm people when they
insist 'that the daylight time is a
serious, drawback in their daily life,
but 'it is quite evident that large
town ,and• city dwellers -enjoy
extra hours of summer daylight and
they aPpear to be in the majority.
It .would likewise he impossible
for towns the size of Wingham to
abolish the fast time, for that 'would-
perpetrate the Confrision.throughout
the summer months.

standard time in the fall should most
certainly be set for the entire pro-
vince , and if is obvious that no
authority,exeepe the provincial gov-
ernment hastbroad enough scope to
settle the matter, It is apparently
contrary to government policy to
mess around in questions which cre-
ate controversy, but this is one time
when a government decision is nec-
essary.

Ontario might well look in the
direction of British Columbia where
