GORDON ROWLAND Life Guard Read the Advertisements — It's a Profitable Pastime (By PklYiES SCOTT) RIC1#, RIGH PEOPLE 1 Fve just been reading about and looking at the pictures of Guy Lombardo's return to his old home town. I suppose that everybody in these parts knows who Mr. 'Lom- bardo is and. all about how - some thirty years ago he and . his musi- cal brothers got a little band to- gether in London and then went to the rich U.S.A., and ever since have been popular and famous. No heed to go into all. that. London is very proud_ of this story. As is the way in such ro- mances, it somehow makes the people of London feel better to know that one of their boys made it. There's absolutely nothing in that at all, of course. The truth is that the Lombardo family might just as well have been living in Kitchener, or Woodstock, or Brant- ford or, even, Seaforth, and their story would have 'worked out just the same. But it happened'. that they were living in London, and so now London is very happy about, the whole thing. They were very happy last Mon- day anyway, and when Guyand his mother and his brothers step- ped off the special planethat brought them back to the old home town, they organized "a big parade Mrs. Kerr Speaks to First Church W.M.S. First Presbyterian Church's Wo- men's Missionary Society heard Mrs. James Kerr give an account of the main developments at the General Assembly of the Presby- terian Church held in Toronto re- cently. The meeting was directed by Mrs. D. Glenn Campbell, who op- ened the meeting with the reading of "Out in the Fields with God." followed by a prayer. The secretary's report was given and' the treasurer's report was read by Mrs. J. McGregor. Twen- ty calls were made on shut-ins during the month, Mrs. Herr selected the hymn, "Jesus Shall Rein," for the shut-ins. The scrip- ture reading was given by Mrs. John Gordon. The topic, "That They Might Be Healed," was prepared by Mrs. W. Manson's group, and was given by Mrs. D. Glenn. Campbell, Mrs. J. McGregor and Mrs. E. Geddes.. A prayer, prepared by - Mrs. C. ,Brodie, was read by Mrs. W. Man- son. The closing hymn, "Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee," and prayer ,by Mrs. Campbell, con- cluded the meeting. Logan Sets Rate Oks 8.5 Mills Logan -Council adopted an 8.5 mill rate for 1955 at the regular meeting Monday night. The reeve and counc,1ors adopted the rate after estimating forthcoming ex- penditures. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and adopted. Road accounts, totalling $6.290.27, and general accounts amounting to $7,249.85,were ordered paid. The report of J. M. Poelmann, on the Cameron Drain, was read and adopted, and the clerk was instructed to prepare a by-law with five-year 4% debentures. Counci1lo1:-'Earl M. Oppenhauser was appointed Logan's representa- tive to the Monkton Confederation Community Park Board. The ratepayers on the Sykes and Second Concession Drains are to be notified that 75% of their as- sessments will be accepted until July 20, After that date, deben- tures will be sold on the monies still owing. The township mill rate for the year 1955 was(set at 8:5. Council then adjourned to meet again on August 2 at 8:00 p.m: Husband: "If I can't make it back from this trip this evening, I'll send you a note." Wife: "Don't bother. I found the note in your pocket this morn- ing." for them and, as far as 1 can gather from the press reports, the parade was really a success, be- cause they went through fifteen or so red lights and travelled tee. miles in twenty minutes. A real success,! But the thing whichstruck me about the pictures of the parade. was that it was made up of noth- ing but Cadillaes. One fellow drove his Cadillac down from some- where up in Muskoka, just ,Sobe could get into the act. Ile did too. Now nobody needs to be told these days that a Cadillac is some thing like a badge. You wear one to show that you are a rich man. I assume from this that a parade made up entirely of Cadillacs must n'iean that it is a parade devoted to proving that everybody in it is well loaded with the long green. Some ' w, this doesn't seem to me to be much in the spirit of homecoming. It is a very nice thing for a man to make a financial success of him- self. As far as I can see we would all like our friends and relations to have 'that kind of success, be- cause we would like to 'think that none of them would be suffering from want or deprived of the good things of this life. But surely you have to draw the line somewhere. Surely when you get to the point where money becomes an end in itself and your time and energy is devoted to showing off to every- body elsehow much money you have got, then something has gone wrong. And here's a funny thing. It very often goes wrong with the people who don't have the money, not with those who are the rich ones. For instance, I am absolute- ly sure that that lush and ostenta- tious parade in London was not the Lombardos' idea. It was the idea of some character who never had and never will have a million bucks, who thought that the right way to welcome back a successful hometown boy was to show off as much as he could. And everybody else seems to agree. "It's only right," they say, "to give our favorite son the very best!" But there's an old saying that the best that money can buy is never good enough. Money can't buy love or loyalty, or decency or truth. You can't put a price tag on friendship. Now the I.ombardos are lucky people. Because they themselves are nice people, they have the kind of friends who are nice people too. When they came back home they found a lot of other things besides Cadillacs. They found old friends who have not forgotten them in' thirty years. They found old mem- ories and firm loyalties. Oh, the Lombardos are rich, rich people, all right. But they are rich in a way that a big par- ade could never in a million years ever express.
