The Clinton News Record, 1932-12-15, Page 5`TH1JRS., DEC. 15, 1932 OF INTEREST TO YOU AND ME Canada lacks comedians Mr. Ohar- lesivorth, head of the Canadian Radio 'Board, says. 'Pshawl °B1 has never seen a really popular play put on by •Ern amateur company. St, Jerusalem, ' Quebec, is said to e in such a happy! position financial- 1ythat no taxes will be levied this year. If ire had only known this sooner, 'but wd paid our taxes the ,.tither' day. The; gossips will have it that, Prem ler Bennett is to.be married, thougll, 'how they imagine he can have found any time to arrange the preliniinar, les to .such a'step during the past year is beyond us. Britain wanted to talk over war debt. , payments with the Unites) 'States before paying the instalment due today. But the U.S.A. said "No, "Put up the money, we can talk after-. ."yards" So John Bull is handing over -the cash. r`« «« As a sample of the silly things • people will say about their political - opponents we think the charge that "the Conservative Party was sponsor-. • ing the new C. C. F. organization, niade by Mr. Heenan, seems to take the cake. A man going down cellar to at- tend to 'the furnace felt and received 'fatal injuries, the other day. Wives -s'hould' be careful what they insist upon their ,husbandst doing around 'the' house. Men are clumsy crest - `tures at best. ...:. We have very grave doubts of that story of the woman being brought to 'life when her grave was opened by -grave robbers. We may be wrong, of course, but we doubt if anybody 'ever cane to life after the under- taker got through with him. e «°« Another death from monoxide pais- -ening, at Kitchener this time. How long before people will be made a- ware of the danger of being around. 'an automobile with engine goirig and 'inside a building? The greatest care should be taken during cold -weather when fussing about a car. « « "It looks as though a necessary piece of bank equipment is a screw- ; 'driver inside the vault," remarks the i'ergus News -Record. "And if bank staffs are to be locked in vaults after this, it might be a good idea to pro- -vide better ventilation and have a push button inside the vault that ' would -ring an alas n bell outside the , `bank." I r « « On another page of this issue ap • pears a letter from Miss Agnes Mc- Phail, M.P., in which she explains, to her own satisfaction at least the effect winch would follow the intl., ing by the Government of cheaper money. It is a rosy picture, but. alas, It is only a picture, we fear. Sucli a plan might work all right if Canada were a self-contained coun- try, trading only with itself. In- deed, our forefathers got along with the use of little money at all, they simply traded with each .other, but it is a very different matter when we are trading with the world, and we cannot go back to pioneer times. . The remedy for the present economic situation is not quite so simple as lifiss Agnes would have us believe, LONDON ROAD On 'Thursday, Dec. 8th, Mrs. Le - beau was hostess for the meeting of the.
