. _ Around W ateriloo It is too much to hope that the war waged on them by Waterloo shooters for the past three years, has depleted their numbers to the point where they no longer conâ€" stitute a nuisance. It is even a lot to expect that some of them , remembered the shooting and are mesting elsewhere. Council might also be well adâ€" viced to consider some concessions to worthwhile businesses lryin? to locate here. This move, 0 course, should only be made with the provision that the incoming business would not be st ing on the toes of those Iocllecelp:ere for some time. Waterloo has been passed by several times by worthwhile inâ€" dustries for no other reason than that no suitable land was availâ€" able at a reasonable cost. A numâ€" ber of land owners have seen the move coming and have boosted prices until they scared prospecâ€" tive businesses right out of the district. this time we begin to hear of these birds making a nuisance of themselves in parts of the city. but so far this year there hasn‘t been a word. Weather conditions have been adverse almost every â€" Friday night this spring, but a number of shoppers are getting out and taking a chance on getting wet just so they can shop at night. While we refuse to give our own opinion on this matter of night shopping, the picture now would seem to indicate that much of the shopping public would like to see it come. Some of the merâ€" chants feel that it must come eventually, why not now; while others are loathe to giv« up their free Friday nights to work while there seems to be a fair amount of business during the day time. This is a top move and one that should have been taken care of by past councils, when land prices were much cheaper than now. If by moving any or all of the bus stops, traffic on King St. is made safer and quicker, then there should be no hesitation in doing so. While the bus company may feel they are doing Waterloo a favor by furnishing transportaâ€" tion, probabilities are that they would find things were in reverse if they were not allowed to ‘coâ€" ver the King St. route. Past councils have been inâ€" clined to let the PUC have their Past councils have been inâ€" clined to let the PUC have their way in most matters whether it was good for Waterloo or not. Present council has refused to be led in any direction but the one they have studied and decided upon. While it is too much to exâ€" pect them to be right on every throw, their number of hits are high compared to the number of errors they make. J M.S. The "Gathering of the Siskins", to be held this Friday night at Hillcrest should be well attended. J.H.S. Authority to purchase land for the location of future industries, has now been given its third reading by Waterloo Council. No one wants to see the transâ€" portation company lose money on their operation, but after all that is the concern of the company and not the city. So far as losing a great number of customers is concerned, it is doubtful if such will occur. Most people don‘t mind walking a block or so to obtain transportation, if they are sure it will be there when they need it. Those going to the affair and not having transportation, need only travel as far as the Waterâ€" loo Arena and transportation will be provided for them. Those atâ€" tending and not having their cars full, are also asked to go to the Arena where they will be given passengers. . â€" J.H.S. Reaction has been good to Friâ€" day night opening of stores in Waterloo. While there are only a few open now, indications are that there will be more in the imâ€" mediate future. Actually the licensing of bicyâ€" cles as applied to this city has been a good thing. Few if any of them have been lost or stolen that police were not able to trace and return to their owners. Prior to the time that licenses were issued, few that were stolen were ever traced, as the police had no inâ€" formation on which to identify the missing vehicle. J.H.S. * Waterioo Council has now offiâ€" cially requested that the Kitchâ€" ener PUC remove the bus stops now at the corners of Dupont St. and King St. and Laurel St. and King St. These stops are to be replaced with one at the corner of Princess and King Sts. The Siskins will be presented with their new jackets as a triâ€" but to the clean, hard games they played. 2 So far there have only been 700 renewals. There are 1,900 biâ€" cycles owned and operated in this €ity. 0 _ Chief Lloyd Otto says that all of these vehicles must be licensed by the end of June if the owners wish to '(:ontinue_vto operate tppm. A written reply to the request, received from an official of the PUC stated that "while the PUC did not refuse to make the change it was thought that a considerâ€" able number of coach patrons would be inconvenienced and might be lost as a source of reâ€" venue to the transit service." Waterioo bicycle owners are advised.. that.. their.. license.. is valid only until the end of this month. Vol. 96, No. 23 J.H.S. What no starlings?

He said that from the beginning of 1946 starts have been made on about 600,000 new housing units. _ About 150,000 units had reâ€" ceived financial assistance, and 30,000 were built on direct Govâ€" etnment account. The rental inâ€" surance plan had accounted for about 19,000 more. About 120,000 permanent married quarters for the armed services were built from funds voted by Parliament. William Sauter, Sandusky, O., past president of the Ohio State Grotto, called for a motion at the spring festival of Xello Grotto here Saturday giving the Queen this title, and it passed unaniâ€" LONDON.â€"Among other disâ€" tinguished tributes, Queen Elizaâ€" beth II has been named the first mother of the world by the Mysâ€" tic Order of Veiled Prophets of the Enchanted Realm. While many miles over the sea a Queen was cavalcading through the heart of Logdon in a golden coach, the people of Waterloo at the same time were sharing their part in the worldâ€"wide celebraâ€" tion. Waterloo‘s observance was simâ€" ple, yet with dignity; humble, yet proud; colorful, yet modest. No fanâ€"fare, no royal robes, no mulâ€" titude. Nevertheless theâ€"city efâ€" fectively played its part in the crowning of a new Sovereign. OTTAWA.â€"Every sixth person in Kitchener is an immigrant acâ€" cording to calculations made by the statistical staff of the Trade and Commerce Department in a survey conducted recently. The department did not report figures for Waterloo. Of Kitchener‘s 44,867 total poâ€" pulation, 7,969 are immigrants. This is how the Kitchener figure was split: | Houses Being Constructed Fastest in Canadian History Waterloo will officially regust that the Kitchener PUC withdraw bus stops at the corners of Duâ€" pont St. and King St. and Laurel St. and King St. and these stops be replaced by one at the corner of Princess St. and King St. A letter from a representative of the Kitchener PUC was preâ€" sented to members of council Monday night. The writer of the letter stated that the transportaâ€" tion body will not refuse to change the stops, but recommendâ€" ed against the proposal because of the "inconvenience to a considâ€" erable number of coach patrons using the present stops. Reduced The Waterloo Arena was imâ€" pressively decked with many large Union Jacks suspended from the rafters. At one end of the building a stage had been erected and was backed with red, white and blue streamers. Against this patriotic background a large picture of Queen Elizabeth 1I rested with a large flag gently draped over a portion of the top of it. The parade route was a merry avenue of swirling flags and buntâ€" ing. The procession left the King British, 2,016; French, 53; Gerâ€" man, 2,568; Italian, %8; Jewich, Waterloo Observes June 2 With Colorful Arena Program ine CUanadian uirls in ‘iraming Uiass of the First United Church,, nail. m Waterloo, held their annual Mother and Daughter night at the church l'umu, hall, recently.

Both the junior and senior bands of the Waterloo Musical Society participated, followed by members of the Waterloo Legion, Boy Scouts, Cubs, Girl Guides, Brownies and many school chilâ€" aren. ~2,000 and 60,000 annually in 1945 to between 90,000 and 95,000 in 1948.

The Legion proudly marched behind their color bearers. Unâ€" doubtedly for a few the years melted, and they recalled when they too marched in "Good Old London Town."

Mayor Roberts and Ald. Frank Bauer did not favor the change. "The public will have to tell you you‘re wrong," the Mayor said. Of Kitchener‘s 7,696 immiâ€" grants, 4,051 were men and 3,918 were women. Both Ald. Waldon Ewald and Ald. Arno Hauck thought that no action was requiredâ€"on behalf of the city because council had alâ€" ready authorized the change. However, the city clerk advised that the city had rsquesled the PUC to consider thischange preâ€" viously but had not instructed them to do so. Kitchener‘s biggest period of immigration was between 1921 and 1930 when 2,638, almost half from Germany, came to the city. For many this was their first Coronation. For others it may be the last. But the excitement of this sunâ€"dripped day will remain u iong time in the hearts of Waâ€" terloo‘s people. Next best was 1949 to 1951 when 1,425 arrived. WATERLOO _ CHRONICLE QUEEN ISSUES MESSAGE OF THANKS LONDON.â€"The Queen issued a message Wednesday of thanks to the people who worked on the many details of the Coronation. "As I drove to and from the Abbey, I had a chance to see the ingenuity and gaiety of the decorâ€" ations on the route, which, I know, have been matched by others in the cities, towns and vilâ€" lages throughout the country and indeed throughout all parts of the Commonweslth. I am touched by the knowledge that so many authorities anz individuals should have gone to so much trouble in order to give expression to their loyalty and affection." Waterloo Council at Monday night‘s _ meeting _ unanimously agreed that the purchase of a picâ€" ture of Queen Elizabeth should be deferred for the present. An outâ€"ofâ€"town firm had sent a picâ€" ture to Waterioo on approval but council members decided that it was too small and should be reâ€" turned. & A pnintinfi by the noted Kitchâ€" ener artist, Reuben Jukes, will be considered by Council. zr. Jukes ainted a huge lz)ormm of the 5ueen for the Kitchener Memâ€" orial Auditorium. "I wish to express my gratitude to all who helped to make it so happy and memorable an occaâ€" sion," she said. The message mentioned the poâ€" lice, the military organizations, Red Cross, Boy gcouu and uther groups. ‘"To all of these and to the many thousands of others who have played a part, I send my heartfelt thanks." Council Defers Purchase of Pic Mayor Roberts suggested that the purchase be withheld until an official picture is issued of the Queen. He advised council not to act too hastily and said "we should be alert to the rightness of the picture we want." _ _ In a report to the executive council at the annual meeting of the association Wednesday he said that although the number of known cases of %‘B has increased, the death rate has fallen. According to Dr. T.Geddeâ€"Dahl, of Oslo, secretary of the Norweâ€" gian â€" Tuberculosis _ Association, there is a possibility TB may be eliminated in some areas of the world within 10 years. He said authoritiee are not agreed on how to proceed in wipâ€" ing out TB and most peopie don‘t realize how close is the possibiliâ€" ty of completely eliminating it. FLOOD AREA Exploratory digging will be undertaken soon at Elgin and Reâ€" gina Streets, Waterloo, by the enâ€" gineering department, to estabâ€" lish the cause of fooding in this area. Waterloo Council, Monday night, received a complaint signed by 14 residents complaining that water is flooding their cellars and gardens. _ Ald. Harold Paiken advised that he had been out in the area several times and the storm trunk has given considerable trouble. Predict Drop In Canadian TB rett, of Ottawa, executive secreâ€" tary of the Canadian Tuberculosis Association predicted a drop suon in the number of persons in Canâ€" ada inflicted with tuberculosis. "The increased number of cases found does not mean an actual increase in the disease. It is an index of improved, more efficient lacilities for finding cases. We beâ€" lieve that a general fall in morâ€" tality figures can be anticipated shortly." The engineer agreed there was no doubt that silt was in the drain. Findings of the experiment will be presented to council at a later date. WATERLOO 10 The drain situation in this disâ€" trict has come up several times, City Engineer Ernest E. W. Oke said, but to date nothing has been done. He said it was a serious matter and the situation wasn‘t getting any better. Ald. Arno Hauck recalled that the drain was faid over 45 years ago through mucky, soft ground. He believed silt was collecting in the pipe. _ was guest speaker Waterlog, Ontario, Friday, June 5, { GL 144 °24 Magistrate Tells Laymen To Take ‘Tip From AA BREAKâ€"IN AT ERB ST.

The frontageâ€"foot price of parâ€" cels larger than half an acre and smaller than three acres, within a width of between 100 and 300 feet has been increased from 30 to 60 cents. Islands of not more than three acres will be sold at $100 an acre. The old price was $45 an acre.
