It has been suggested by members of the Waterloo Counci} that the wood poles now adorning King Street for the use of hydro and telephone companies, be replaced with slim steel poles. Why go to this expense® Why not take a realistic view of the whole matter and take all the wiring underground, where it will eventually have to go anyway The time is long past when the streets of any progressive city should be cluttered with hundreds of poles sticking up out of sideâ€" walks and roads. They are not only an eyesore, but a menace in both peace and war, vulnerable to the elements and enemy aircraft alike. Underground wiring, while fairly expensive to instal should pay for itself in a short time through less upkeep and a cleaner street. The city will benefit generally through having a cleaner street and the companies involved, through less repairs. Locally there might be some difficulty because the trolley wires must be supported, However, this condition could be remedied by carrying wires from poles set up off the street lines, or some methods found for generaling electricity directly to the buses. There seems little real reason for ducking this issue, as has been done in numerous other cases. Sure it‘s going to cost a lot of money, but it will cost a lot less if done now than it will if left for another There seems little r done in numerous other but it will cost a lot les ten years. The trout season opens for another season next week, and with its opening will come some of the "fish derbies" that is helping to kill off our game fish. One of these has been going on in the Owen Sound district for years. Numerous prizes are given for the largest trout taken, and the prizes, not the fisn attract many who are not normally interested in fishing for the sake of the sport. Opening day in this district is one mad rush to see who can get the biggest trout. There are, of course, a few real sportsmen who get mixed in with the mob, but their aim is the sport and not the prizes given with the idea of getting a lot of publicity . es c im on c eran it en E: m : Fishing for the most part is carried on from the spillway and the dam at Eugenie. Here, particularly on the spillway, drunken parties and numerous brawls enliven the fishing. Drunks sprawl out and go to sleep right on the gravel roadway. The hord of cane pole fishermen jostle and shove each other for the favorite spots around the bridge. Oh, }t's nice clean sport all right house a sport. + Actually the whole affair stinks, as do most sports when comâ€" mercialized. It does a lot of harm to the district, not only by destroyâ€" ing the fish, but by driving away decent sportsmen who would ordinâ€" arily come to the area over a long term. By catering to the whims of local merchants whose only aim is publicity for themselves, the people of this district are allowing the destruction of a wildlife asset they cannot replace. All fishing derbies, unless they involve taking of coarse fish, should be banned by law. Cheap commercializing of our natural resources has been almost entirely responsible for the downward treng of fish and game. Actually there is no good reason why anyâ€" one should be allowed to capitalize an wildlife which belongs to the general public. Until public indignation is aroused to the point where the Department of Lands and Forests stop this sort of slaughterâ€"it will go on. If this trend is not stopped, it wili gradually become worse rather than better. There is always someone looking for publicity or profit, and ballyhooing fish and game is a cheap and easy way to get it. It‘s time the Department woke up to the amount of damage being done by this type of thing and put an immediate stop to it. If the people want fish derbies so they will have an excuse to get out and try for some stupid prize, let those who sponsor the derbies have them on carp or perch or some other type of coarse fish, the destruction of which would be of benefit to all concerned. 32 King East PREâ€"SCHOOL CLINIC WILL BE HELD IN WATERLOO DURING THE WEEK OF MAY 5th, 1952 For the children who will be starting to school mext fall. whose children have not been registered, are asked to register not later than April 30th, 1952, with the Principal of the school which the child will attend.

Our mental progress lacks a normal chance And lags behind our physical advance, Because ambitious minorities Become conservative authorities Who can too soon afford to bribe with cash Their spokesmen to rehearse and to rehash With parrotâ€"like monotony the claim ‘That by their mulish stubbornness they aim To treasure their traditions more than gold And keep the faith their fathers used to hold More sacred than the life of any man Who might oppose or scorn that holy plan. Alas, what speck of reason could there be In the assumption that our ancestry Of more than some ten thousand years ago Should ever have advanced enough to know More than posterity discovered since With the scientific methods which convince. Throughout the countless ages of the past The leaders had only themselves to blame For squandering their own ambitiousness And their submissive peoples‘ energy In vain upon uncounted battlefields And on erecting castles domes, and tombs, Such as the Palace of Versailles in France, The Moscow Kremlin in the Russian style, And Taj Mahal of mystic India. Why must our species labour for its dead And let the living starve for lack of bread? The credulous majority Will still perform or perpetrate What the alert minority Cares to inspire or instigate. Our modern slant on history reveals That every human institution is Lather precarious in origin, Unnatural in its development, And quite unstable in its character ; So we may encouraged to believe That our scientific methods can improve And fundamentally remake them all. Every nation writes its history Still with the biased and §elfl-centred aim Of making ardent patriotic slaves Of every generation that it rears; But those who can abjectively survey The universal history of man Are bound to come to the conclusion that The chiefs and tribes and king and nations all Are like the passing waves that rise and fall, Whereas the ocean of mankind remains Regardless of the storms that it sustains.
