There are any number of motorcyclists who stay within the speed laws and are careful drivers, It is of course, a case of a few spoiling it for the many. J H.S. « _ With Waterloo youngsters well looked after so far as a good swimming pool is concerned, why can‘t some service organization go a little further and prompt the idea of cleaning out Silver Lake so it would be fit for fishing and boating? Frankly we think the need for a.new road was greater in this #ection than a new sidewalk. JMH.SB. Trains are still shunting their loads across the main street in Waterloo and Kitchener at the busiest hours of the day. _ Recent heavy rains have shown the weak spots in many of the older roads in Waterloo, although even then they would have to g«; some to beat lznchener where t water was bubâ€"deep on some of the side streets. Certainly the new sidewalks on the Bridgeport Road will be wastâ€" ed if there is not somelhing‘donc :o drain the water from where it setties on the road, in small lakes, after every rain. . â€" Around Waterloo No person, unless they were completely encased in rubber from head to foot, would be foolâ€" ish enough to walk along the side of this road after a rain, unless, of course, they were résigned to the fact that they were goin{h:o get drenched by the first car t came by. Here it is not a case of a careful or carelqss driver.

S In former years, rail officials have always said, "we can‘t make any changes," and have got away with it. If for no other reason than to facilitate present traffic congestion, then the schedule should be changed so that the snunting could be done in the traffic slack periods. . . With industries located as they are in Waterloo, it seems imposâ€" sivle at the present time to do without the railways entirely. However, while admitting that they have a place, there is no reason why this place should be maintained at the expense of priâ€" vate citizens. completely new way to attract atâ€" tention to his shoe store and still give the looking public a chance io benefit for what effort they make. Five turtles will have letters spelling out the name of a make of shoe painted on their backs. There will also be five stones painted with the same initials. If and when someone spots the five turtles parking themselves on the right five stones, that person will be given $25.00 in cash as a prize. J M.S. While the Waterloo police have done a good job in cleaning up a lot of the speeding that has been going on in this city, there are still far too many motorcycle ridâ€" ers getting away with top speeds on King St. A child or even an adult can be killed just as dead with one of these vehicles as they can with a car. Vol. 96, No. 34 Sounds like a heck of an easy way to win $25.00, but turtles like mules can be awful cantankerous. Better start practicing a little hypnotism on turtles. If the lake itself was deepened and the control gates made so that they could be opened without all the fish getting through them, then there is little doubt but that Waterloo Rod and Gun Club could obtain enough fish to stock this yake and make it something worthwhile for the juvenile fishâ€" ermen. At the present time, few local boys get the chance to fish for other than suckers or chub until they are old enough to furnish some means of transportation for themselves. These fish are hardly worth catching from a food angle, and after all, what boy doesn‘t like to come home to his mother with a nice trout or bass on a willow stringer. â€" Silver â€" Lake would â€" support trout. The water is pure enough even now and the rate of lgmw\h would likely be good. ishing could be restricted to juveniles, both boys and girls Probably after the affair was given a start the Waterioo Recreation Commisâ€" sion could be persuaded to overâ€" see the effort of the young fisherâ€" men.

Good Fruit Crop Seen This Year OTTAWA.â€"The Bureau of Staâ€" tistics reported recently that a mild winter and heavy spring blossoming in Canada‘s orchards indicate a good fruit crop this vear. Last summer‘s dry spell killed a number of strawberry plants in Ontario, but all appleâ€"growing areas came through the winter with practically no injury. Soft fruits such as peaches, pears and cherries wintered well "and in most cases showed heavy blossom." Conditions also pointâ€" ed to a good strawberry crop this year with the possible exception of Ontario. Spring Flowers Form Setting For Holmesâ€"Gibbons Rites Lake, it is likely that the rich topsoil now clogging the lake, could be sold for a great deal more than it would cost for labor and equipment.

The 16th annual meeting of the federation concluded last Friday. In its resolution, the federation said education facilities across Canada vary greatly and in many areas "are deplorably inadequate, with little hope of improvement." National and internafional eduâ€" cational problems concerned the Tome and School Association as wel!l as provincial matters. The resolution will be submitâ€" ted to Prime Minister St. Laurent and provincial federations will urge their governments to make representations to the federal government for aid.
