Municipal Borrowings

Summerside Town Council has decided to borrow.S300,000 at 41.9 per cent to cov- -.-r the cost of capital expenditures. It was originally intended to borrow 99250000 at ill.-I; per cent. but when it was realized the Federal Government was to issue bonds at 31.1,, per cent, the councillors came to the conclusion it would be necessary to raise their interest in order to sell their issue in competition with the Federal issue. They acted wisely in view of the fact that in Ontario the Provincial Government there had t6 purchase the debentures of nine municipalities amounting to b1,141,08l, for which there was no market. The pui'- chases authorized include 399.000 from the town of Hawkesbury; S35,000 from Schrei- ber; h96.359 from the township of North York: 54,300 from the village of Elmvale; -1953.422 from the town of Riverside; 390,- 000 from Bracebridge; ?5598,000 from the city of Niagara Falls; b28,000 from the township of Westminster, and b137,000 from the township of Bertie. This is said- by bond houses to be the first time that the Province'of Ontario has had to em- bark upon this type of rescue operation.

llowiilerlzing llursery Rhymes

There is always someone attempting to upset cherished memories of happy. by- gone days, and taltc the early joy out of life. The latest is a modern versifier Michael Hall, who has come to the con- clusion that childrenls rhymes are the foundation of juvenile dclinquencyhand has spent two years re-writing 300 of them. For instance. he says Tom Tom the Piper's Son "met" a pig-he did not steal it, as the old rlgyme says. The Goosey Goosey Gander "helps" the old man down the stairs. She does not throw him down. Another of Hall's rhymes changes the sad story of Cock Robin's death in the joyful tale of his wedding to a sparrow ”in a wheel bariow;" then all the birds of the air, instead of "a-sighing and a-sobbing," go "a singing and a-throbbing, when they heard of the love of dear Cock Robin. Now Hall wants to persuade the United Nations to give his revised version official backing "for the benefit of the children of the world." He realizes that nursery rhyme reform will not come quickly or easily. "It will take at least half a century to get parents to think of the characters'in our nursery rhymes as well-meaning creatures rather than the barbarous sort of beings we have known so long." Alas. this is even worse than bowlderizing Shakespeare.

The Yukon Trail

10 many people the Yukon is still the land of '98; a distant. rugged and forbid- ding wilderness of mountains and ice. They are the people. suggests the Northern Miner. who could benefit most from a trip along the Trail of 231.

Yukon's 206,427 square miles stretch from British Columbia on the south away up paste the Circle to the Arctic Ocean; from the border of Alaska on the west to the McKenzie watershed on the east. It was first opened up by the search for gold (as so many parts of the northland haw- been opened-). but it's known now to be rich in many other minerals as well; sil-

, and only time will tell what else.

Thanks to its mineral wealth, Yukon is growing. Not in the fabulous mushroom fashion of '98. when fortunes could be dug from the creeks with shovel and sluice box to make men wealthy in a matter of weeks, but slowly, more solidly. with the aid of modern equipment and mining know-how.

Mineral output in 1948 was 54.2 million. In 1949 it was 55.1 million. Last year it rose to 57.8 million; This year the total will increase again. Days of lower metal prices may bring set-backs. but they would not be more than temporary. The frontiers of the country have bden too well opened

hool text-books destroyed by the Com- munist invasion.

Dr. George Paik, Korean Minister of Education, now lecturing at the University

of California. had long been trying through

government channels to find enough paper for the printing of some 62,000,000 need- ed textbooks. The Committee For A Free Asia learned of the plight and was able tofpurchase the newsprint at a cost of up-

wards of 5100.000 from supplies in Japan.

In a message to President Syngman Rhee. accompanying the gift, Braton Wil- bur, chairman of the committee, a private. non-profit organization. said the committee believed that "by assisling boys and girls in Korea to have school books from which they may learn the lessons of a free soc- iety, despite the bloodthirsty attempts of the Communists to destroy that society, we will make a substantial contribution toward the continued growth of freedom in Korea. in Asia and throughout the world."

It is to be hoped that this generous gest- ure may be the forerunner of assistance on the United Nations level and of much great- er magnitude to these unhappy people.

Ottawa families are all in a flurry over the report that their milk supply is deficient in quality. Ottawa has no stand- ard bacteria count. The recognized stand- ard bacteria count is 200,000 in a cubic centimeter of raw milk and 30.000 in pasteurized milk. Dr. Johns, Federal bac- teriologist, reported that after laboratory pasteurization of some raw milk received by Ottawa dairies the bacteria count was more than 200,000. The bacteriologists and Dr.'”Day said the high bacteria court was no cause for panic. but to see the standards of milk improved an additional milk inspector is necessary. C O 6'

Perhaps the. most outstanding news- paperman Mr. W. R. Hearst developed and exploited was the late Arthur Brisbane. It was he who introduced the practice of "writing down" to his readers which made the Hearst papers so popular with "the man in the street.” Brisbane editorials were as simple and easily-read as the A.B.C., and were intended to reach and in- fluence the many thousands of immigrant readers and their offspring who settled in New York and other large cities in the States. Hearst was so impressed with Bris- bane's style that he made it mandatory on all his many newspapers-simplicity of language and bold-type editorials.

It is reported that next month several Quebec M.P.'s will receive promotion as senators or judges, and by-elections. will ensue. The Montreal Gazette says the Progressive Conservatives at headquarters have asked the Quebec party men to sur- vey the prospects there, as they are of opinion that the Government will select. candidates sure of election in order to win the by-elections to counterbalance Pro- gressive Conservative wins elsewhere. En- couraged by the party's upset victories i-.i Winnipeg, Brandon and P. E. I., the Pro- gressive Conservatives are wondering about their chance of repeating, even in Liberal party strongholds in Quebec.

Not a few trite reniarks by distinguish- ed men are polished into gems of first wat- er. and then literary authorities overlook the fact. A case in point: The present. the seventh Duke of Wellington has damp- ened the legend that his great ancestor once said, "the Battle of Waterloo was won on the playing fields of Eton." The Duke offered E30 to the National Playing Fields Association if anyone could prove to him that the victor of Waterloo uttered those words. But an exhaustive search has fail- ed to produce definite proof. The closest anyone has come to pinning down the state- ment is Robert Birley, headmaster of Etor: who said the famous quotation first appear- ed in Montalembert's "De l'Avenir Politlque de l'Angleterre," published in 1855. Mont- alembert quoted the Duke of Wellington as saying at Eton: "It is here that the Bat-

tle of Waterloo was won." Which. surely,

is near enough the fact to justify the quo-

Sir.-I am a capitalist. I own three apple trees and about 100 square yards of ground under them. And believing in free eli- terprise, I cared for them just as I saw fit. I pruned them some. but the spraying in spi-ii-gtlme was neglected. Two of them are late varieties and might be better than thev are. But the one in the ”midst" is a yellow transparent and gives us more value than the others. The fruit now is falling. small ones and the most infected first. we make apple sauce from the best. eat a few raw and feed the poorer ones to the chickens. Yes. I am a capitalist. Little I thought that any of my neighbors would care anything about my uoi-my apples. But. still I am a "have" and there are a iiuinbcr of "have nois", made up of boys ill to 12 years of age. They have ll. den or small shack built fortliem- selves. But feeling both lungry and thirsty B. troop of five or six made a raid on my fruit. Just. as the North Korean Reds would do. they proceeded to shake the tree We do not shake the tree. There are plenty falling. so the writer bounded out to protect his world- ly goods and the enemy took to flight. One large hand wngcn was left behind with it flour sack in it.

But. to finish the story: A les- son has been learned. which is to feed fewer apples to the laying hens. use the same number as before for apple sauce. and let the family of small children whose father is in Korea have what they reed, and if any left, take them to the boys' den as it peace offering.

We need ii. Scout Master right now. What a field to work in. No end to the moral results that would follow. "God loved the world of sinners lost" - even young thieves and liars. And I must. say that the writer was no "George Washington" at all.
