Unfair
JULY GETS A POOR SHAKE from the
poets and the literary gentry in general, com-
ments The Printed Word. Bartlett's remitter
Quotations mentions it three times, but only
one of these references is laudatory. In com-
parison, April is favorably noted twenty-eight
times and May gets thirty-eight pats on the
back. This is unfair. What's the matter with
July? ' What's the matter with poets? What's
the .matter with people?
July is the best month, The all-around
best month, in Canada anyway. For one thing,
it is a good month for getting no work done.
Another advantage is that you don't need
clothes or much food, so work is unnecessary.
People are away, so you don't have to talk to
them or listen to them. There is no question
about July's being the best month. Its only
to July
rival, August, is apt to have frost towards
the end, except in some favored spots in the
Dominion. June is out, of course, because of
the mosquitoes; but in spite of them Bartlett
has fourteen kindly references. Even March
is praised more often than July.
The fault is not July's, but with the poets
and 'everybody. We live in anticipation end
don't appreciate a good thing when we have it.
Bartlett lists fifty-eight honorable mentions for
Spring and only sixteen for Summer. Y et
Spring isanerely the promyse of Summer, When
the promise is fulfilled we lose interest and
complain about our clothes sticking to the chair.
the poison -ivy Willie got' into, the odd ways
of tourists, the auto traffic, the crowds on the
trains, the slice, the thrice -putted green, the
stones on the beach, the umpire's patent bias—
and how fast the Summer is going.
Big Majority Increases Responsibility
ELECTION RESULTS removes one major
worry that has been hanging over the country,
states The Financial Post, There is no question
of an ample working majority for the new
government. Had either of the major political
' parties been forced to depend on a minority
group for parliamentary support, there would
have been no hope of stability at e time when
a strong, stable government is of the utmost
importance.
But the present top-heavy majority is
potentially hazardous for the country. A one-
sided house increases the risk of government
extravagance and of the Cabinet ignoring
parliament.
Lack of a more powerful opposition means
still greater responsibility for Mr. St. Laurent.
In any democracy, the party out of power is
only second in importance to the one that is in,
In constructive criticism, in keeping the gov-
ernment on its toes end in fighting for economy
in the spending of public money, the Opposition
has a vital contribution to make.
Editorial Comment...
THOUGHT FOR TODAY—The strength of
criticism lies only in the weakness of the
thing criticized.—LongfeIIoW.
When you and your family set out on
that long anticipated vacation this summer,
leave carelessness and thoughtlessness at home.
Don't let them' spoil your holiday!
A LITTLE EASING in the • business boom
may teach all of us a lesson. After reporting
that the current recession in the United States
is not nearly es serious as alarmists would have
us believe, The Financial Post comments: "Some
measure of temporary slowdown can have most
salutary effect." •

MANY PARENTS SAVE
, FAMILY ALLOWANCES
FOR THEIR CHILDREN
Monthly Cheques Will Pay
For Education or Other
Future Expenses
As a parent, you may be inter-
ested in the constructive way
thousands of Canadian parents
are using their Family Allowance
payments, They do not feel the
need for using this money for the
immediate requirements of their
children, Instead, they regard
thse cheques as instalments to-
ward buying their children the
golden key to tomorrow's oppor-
tunities --education.
So, every month, these parents
deposit all or part of their Family
Allowances in special savings ac-
counts at the Bank of Montreal.
They know that, if these cheques
go into e child's own bank ac-
count from the first, he will have
over $1,000 to his credit at the
age of 16-a fine financial back-
log for a college, education.
Besides, when he is old enough,
you can encourage your 'young=
ster to add to this fund by reg-
ularly saving something himself—
out of pocket -money or earnings
from his newspaper route. The
savings habit will benefit him
all his life. And, in the event
of emergency or opportunity, this
money mikes a valuable extra
reserve.

open an "education" account at
