So watch The Standard for up and coming ev- ents, SPRING -•- At last Well it finally arrived. Yes sir, we've been waiting on it for the past five months or more, and what do you know? Spring has arrived! There's only one problem, and it's a dandy, Somebody forgot to TELL THE WEATHERMAN! The past weekend saw record temnpera!tures recorded hereabouts with a nine. degree below zero being reported last Saturday night. Oh what those in charge of the arena wouldn't have given for some of that last December. At this time of the year, they couldn't care less. Early Tues- day morning -- when spring of - tidally arrived - we were blan- keted with about as much snow as one would care to see fall in the period of a few short hours. On Wednesday the snow was still With us and seemed very reluct• ant to disappear. Although it has been reduced to more of a mush than anyithing else. The situation along the main chug hasn't been much worse all winter, with melting snow making the walking almost ankle deep in slush and water when trying to cross from the highway onto the sidewalk. Our town fathers could do worse than have it removed before wanner temperatures ar- rive, No doublt their snow re- moval budget has been hard pres- sed this year, but there is enough snow along the side of the street now that nothing but problems can result if it is allowed to stand lunch was being prepared, and a much longer. social half hour was spent. NI We had a post card from our golfing buddy, Fred Elliott, of Clinton. Fred is currently en- joying the golfing season in Caro• Lina and Florida, and is getting his usual head start an the "suckers" forced to stay home and battle the last throws of winter. There'll be nothing less than three or four bisques the first few rounds this year, I'll tell you. We've finally learned our lesson, cin Jini? Needless to say, receiving the card returned our thoughts to the game we so dearly love --one we've been trying so hard to forget all winter - and we're finding it awfully hard to wait until the nice warm days of spring. And will quite possibly be so anxious by then that we'll forget all about those three or four bisques and wind up with another expensive spring tune-up. Fred was accompanied south by his partner and our earstwhile golfing enemy, "Web" Martin, aviro also hails from the neigh• Inuring town of Clinton. Every Thursday Afternoon during the summer months the aforemention- ed two gentlemen take on yours truly and a fellow by the name of Jinn Graham of Clinton in what has turned into a weekly "grudge match," Graham is a fellow wvho when he's in shape, hits -'em as far as Arnold Palmer and Jack Niklaus. He's lost twenty pounds over the winter, so it -just might not be such an expensive spring tune up after all. Lot's just wait and see, Old Buddies! ' /AGE TWO O1INIII�IIAIfIAIINWpYIIIWIIWIIIMI UGAR and SPICE THE BLYTH STANDARD WIDN!FFF W Y,. 4WH;y IT'S TIME TO PROJECT Is Defence Minister Hellyer, as he presses relentlessly for unification of Canada's armed forces, marching thein straight into the twenty-first century, or straight into an abyss? It depends on whom you listen to, these days, as one acheiral afiter another goes down with all guns blazing. But I don't like the idea myself. What will happen, for example, to the old, friendly give- and-take atmosphere that was prevalent among the services in World War II? You remember. When our air force used to bomb and strafe its own troops and ships. And the army and navy regularly took pot-shots at their own aircraft. All this jovial camaraderie will be lost. Another thing. Who will the new forces fight when they go ashore on leave? If there are no soldiers, sailors or airmen to tangle with, they'll have to fight among themselves or beat up civilians. A bad show, either way. But these are minor things, which could probably be ironed out in about 80 years. There is another, and more frightening prospect implicit in the formation of a single force. Dictatorship. "Oh, come now," you say. "Don't be ridiculous. It could never happen here. This is a democracy. Canadians would never put up with it. Don't kid yourself, Canadians who will put up with the kind of government, taxes and weather we have now would put up with anything. And the w►ihole business would be as painless as kicking off your old galoshes and putting on a new pair of rubbers. Let's project a little. Say 20 years into the future. Here's she picture. We have a doddering, fumbling, inefficient government. So what's new, you ask. Don't interrupt. The only reason this government is in is that the opposition is even more hopeless. By its tax policies, this feeble federal government has ali- enated both rich and poor, and has infuriated the middle-class. The provinces thumb their noses at it. Quebec treats it with Gallic scorn, awhile bleeding it to death with blackmail. The United States is angry with it for its crushing taxes on the two-thirds of the country owned by the U.S, corporations. The United States is also disgusted with it for its vacillating foreign policy" A dim picture. Yes, but there is one flaming torch in the rt of this darkness. That is Un•iforce. It's the only thing in the country that Canadians are proud ef. it is a crack force in every sense. Every one of the 100,000 men is handpicked. They are the physical and mental elite of the gener- ation. Their pay equals that of the average university professor. '[their equipment is the best in the world. Their esprit de corps is superb. And they've earned the right to swagger a bit, and push civilians off the sidewalk and openly pinch the bottoms of young matrons. In the Lower Frombosia incident, they proved themselves a tough efficient and ruthless fighting machine. In the Upper Cam- bodia affair, they stamped out communism, socialism, democracy and the entire native population in two weeks.

We felt that with beards so strongly in evidence hereabouts the past couple of months, it was quite applicable for reprinting in The Standard, A Problem Beard Approximately eight months ago, Six at the very least; A friend of aline motored to town, And looked somewhat like a beast. The townsfolk gathered from every home, The kids all hid in fright; But one old plaid was heard to say, "I'd like to meet up vith THAT at night." But after lie had explained himself, And the shotguns were all laid down; The Reeve stepped up, and said, "look here son," "We've got enough Russians in this here town," But he let the whiskers grow, I -Ie didn't need,_ the people's advice; Now, I swear, it's as long as your arm, And a nesting place for mice. Most everyone was afraid of him, IIe looked terrible at night; Was it a man, or was it a beast? No one could guess it right. One girl was brave enough to ride, But 1 don't think she was too afear'd; For on Saturday night as .they went by, All you could see, was a blond -headed beard. They were often seen at picture shows, And some of the queerest places; Along the river and in the weeds, Watching the submarine races. But, 11e didn't court her long, I can't say what the trouble was, I think she found it awful hard, To kiss him through the fuzz. His beard got caught in a gear one day, The boss thought it was a joke; I -Ie thought the beard was as good as gone, But the gear was what ended up broke. One morning, it was fifty below, And he started in to sneeze, But before he could reach a handkerchief, His beard had begun to freeze. Long icicles hung down to his knees, Ilt's the gospel, his another tells, Every time he would take a step, The icicles played "Jingle Bells," So his father took some blasting caps, And tied them to the ice; The rats and mice, they all got out, Right behind the lice. I-Iis old elan lit the fuse and ran, But my friend sneezed with all his alight; It wasn't that he was catching cold, He was allergic to dynamite, He says that he's never going to shave it off, Even though he's had all this trouble; Claims he doesn't want to look like one, With my scruffy growth of stubble, .41V111111li111111111111111111111111!II!f!!!

In public housing develop- ments governments provide ac- commodation for displaced famil- ies, in most private developments like Toronto's St. James Town, the poor are simply uprooted. Canada's municipal governments on the whole must bear most of the blame in failing to provide subsidized housing for poor or low income families. A hopeful and promising experiment is tak- ing place in Toronto St. Janes Town. A project called the neigh- bourhood Service Unit was start- ed in 1965. They rented an old Arouse and called it the Christian Resource Centre. The commun• ity has come to accept the Unit as it had not accepted the social agencies.

Cigarettes And Disease The following article is being published at - the request of Hui.. on County A'Iedical Health Officer, Dr. G. 1'. A. Evans, It relates to the dangers encountered when smoking tobacco, particularly cig. arettes. "These people are liars; they want your money and they don't mind if you die." This quote is taken front an article by a highly reputable British journalist, Way- land Young, writing in one of Britain's top two quality daily newspapers, The Guardian, early in 1964. He was advising par- ents to say anis to their children from time to time as the neause- atingly mellifluous tones of the television cigarette advertisements flow over the family, Fortun- ately, since then, cigarette adver- tisements have been banned com- pletely on commercial television in Britain (B.B.C. T.V. has no advertising matter of any kind), 11 would be well if this belated action in Britain were followed, Mill more belatedly, by C.B.C. t.ha'otrhaut its lraits natio n net- works. A Centennial Project? Even this \rout(' be, but a small bile at 1 vary large cake. While it is aclmit'ed freely, that among tobacco productE, the cigarette is Cie killer, t':^ p'P{t and the cigar a e les F i cr iminated, only be - e:21.152'3 they !•r } less likely to !a:11 cr.:ser'. They share t\l'it the cigarette, causal relation• ship in coronary thrombosis, chronic bronchitis and other ser- ious conditions and the exacer- bation of gastric and duodenal ul- cers. Really, the only logical measure would be the complete prohibition of the advertising of tobacco products by any of the media of mass communication 'Phe effect on smoking habits woad be profound and dramatic. There are many fields in which health education can be of value, but none in which Society while' pointing to the clangers of smok- ing, permits its mature and ins mature members to be exposed to inaccurate and misleading claims for products, which if us- ed, can bring about a premature death. Lung cancer differs from many other diseases, in that hav- ing it almost always means dying of it, dying soon, most unpleas• antly and in great pain controlled only by powerful drugs. The Reports to the Surgeon -Gen• oral of the United States Public Health Service (1964) states: Cig- arette smoking is casually relat- ed to lung cancer in then: the magnitude of the effect of cig- arette smoking far outweighs all other factors (Atmospheric Pollu- tion, vehicle exhausts, background radiation etc.). The data for Wo• nun, though less extensive point in the same direction. The risk of developing lung cancer increases with duration of smoking and the number of cig- arettes smoked per day, and is diminished by stopping smoking. In comparison with non-smokers, average male smokers of cigar- ettes have approximately a 9 to J!' fold risk of developing lung ca: cer, .and heavy smokers at leas: a 20 -fold risk." One frequently encounters' ill_ two arguments that it is Atmos- pheric Pollution not cigarettes that is the cause of lung cancer and that many life-long smokers die in old age of causes other than lung cancer, so it is as well to deal with them at this time, No doctor has ever claimed that cigarettes are the only factor in the causation of lung cancer, and atmospheric pollution undoubted- ly makes a contribution, but it is a very small one ill comparison with the smoking of cigarettes, It is most significant that in Fin- land and Jersey—Ohannrji Islands --.there is very little atmosphere ;pollution, high eonsumlption of cigarettes and very high lung can- cer death rates. With regard ,to the octogenarian cigarette smoker dying, for example, of simple old age, this is not at all in conflict with the overwhelming evidence to incriminate the cigarette, tip- ped cr plain, as a killer.- It has never been Said by any responsible authority that all people mato smoke cigarettes will die of lung cancer. What is undoubtedly true, however, is that to persist with heavy cigarette smoking in the face of the facts available is like playing Russian Roulette, PAGE EI.GHT LNDAnnual Anniversary LE FEATURING THE BIG "99c SALE" Stewart's Red II White Food Mkt.
