Minnows and other small fish do not seem to be particularly effected by this latest dumping, but with the heat of summer, it could get bad enough to start killâ€" ing fish as well as contaminating the water and creek bed. The program designed to make sure Waterloo firemen were on their toes and had the necessary knowledge and ability to do a Grade A job, ends this week. Indications are that the proâ€" gram is a good one. If we reâ€" member rightly, Waterloo police have also been schooled in the latest methods of their trade. With these two branches reâ€" ceiving instructions to insure full value for the taxpayer money, how about the other branches of the civic service. Would it not be a good idea for al civic emâ€" ployees to receive instructions as to the latest and most productive way of doing their jobs? J.H..S. Driving north on King St., Tuesday of this wek, we were folâ€" lowing behind three other cars when suddenly they scattered all over the road as though a milk truck had dropped all its bottles. We said something nasty about the driver in front as he suddenâ€" ly stepped down on his brakes and swerved towards the middle of the road. Waste is being dumped into Laurel Creek and in sufficient quantities to not only contaminâ€" ate the creek, but make it very high smelling on a warm evening. The plant formerly thought to be dumping chemicals powerful enough to kill fish in the creek, is not responsible this time, for the contamination does not start at their outlet. It would seem to us that with all the trouble that dumping has caused in the past, that those havâ€" ing an outlet on the creek, would be doubly careful of what they allowed to enter the water. Cerâ€" tainly there is no excuse for dumping into a stream of water which runs right through the heart of the city. Driving around our roads and along those through the country, a person could be pardoned for thinking that some drivers must deliberately iry and run over evâ€" ery bird er animal they see. This is true in a few cases. There are those sadistic enough to get a thrill out of killing for killing sake and in the most brutal manâ€" ner. Luckily there are not too many persons of this low calibre while there are many who will swerve their car to avoid hurting the smallest form of life. MY EUTURE BOSS NOU CAN PEPEND ON Much preparatory work has already been accompitshed, such as the work of over 1000 volunteers who have éeovered Toronto and district obtaining rooming for the visiting delegates. A large eafeâ€" teria has also been organized to assist in the feeding of the crowds. Preparations have been made at Toronto for an audience of upwards of 20,000 visiting delegates from Eastern Canada and the Northern United States. The sperial feature of the convention, for which an additional day is allotted, will be the graduation exercises of the 23rd class of missionaries from the Walchtower Bible School of Gilead. This school has, since 1942, graduated over 2200 -I-lo.-‘ aries and sent them to missionary feids in over 100 lands. The interest in the operation of this mitsionary school is expected to swell the attendance of the Toronto convention to the largest of the 21 North American assemblies. A full program of Bible lectures, discourses and demonstrations will be highlighted by the outstanding Bible lecture, "God‘s Love to the Rescue in Man‘s Crisis" by Mr. N. H. Knorr, president of the Watchtowerr Society of New York, on Sunday, July 25 at 3 p.m. to date at the C.N.E. GRANDSTANDS, Toronto, from JULY 21 â€" 25 The Toronto Assembly is one of a series of 21 district assemblies being held in North America this year. Four of these conventions will be held in Canada at New Westminster, B.C., Saskatoon, Sask., MHalifax, N.8, and the Toronto gathering. Of the 21 North American conventions. Toronto alone has a five day program. All the rest are four days A delegation of sixty from Waterloo are completing arrangements to attend what is expected will be the largest assembly of Jehovah‘s Witnesses in Canada Cause for all the fancy driving was a baby robin, still unable to fly. tI had evidently hopped out of its nest and landed on the road. The parents were flying franticâ€" ally about it, but were unable to do more than scream advice, to which the frightened little bird paid no attention. e _ Of all the poorly marked, poorâ€" ly â€" constructed â€" detours, â€" these around the new culverts take the cake. While those north of Elmiâ€" ly run over anything. If they would go to all that trouble to save the life of one small bird, then they must be a pretty good bunch. Too bad all drivers do not feel the same way. J M..5. Been doing any country road driving recently? if you have, then you have no doubt run into some of the cement culverts beâ€" ing placed north of Elmira and the one now under construction on the road to Salem. As I swerved around the small bundle of feathers, I thought I had beter stop and go move him off the road. This proved unnecâ€" essary, for suddenly a little girl darted out onto the road, scooped up the bird and returned to the sidewalk where she placed it on the grass of the boulevard. I guess it all goes to prove that you can‘t tar everyone with the same brush. I doubt if an{ of the drivers in the cars in front of me that day would deliberateâ€" AT SPEED recently are three ships of Britain‘s Mediterranean Fleet, the cruisers H.M.S.

When it comes to someâ€" thing of benefit to the average Canadian citizen, it takes years for even the first move to be The whole setup is fantastic. CBC is making hundreds of thousands of dollars out of teleâ€" vision and radio, but so long as the program leaves the studio, it is evidently unimportant whether it ever reaches the listener. Dealâ€" ers and manufacturers spend thousands of dollars on advertisâ€" ing, knowing even while they are guaranteeing the set that there is no provision against interference. Thousands of TV owners living in good residential districts are being constantly plagued with poor to lousy reception. The man who installed the set just shrugs his shoulders and claims he can‘t do a lhm, about it. The radio diâ€" vision of the Department of Transport, make a good effort to iron out interference, but they have no real authority to force either a manufacturer or a priâ€" vate individual to fix their maâ€" chinery so it cannot ruin the reâ€" ception. It‘s hard to understand why, with TV sets being sold by the thousands, there is no legislation or not even any contrivapce which will guarantee good recepâ€" tion. Dozens of people have told us that beer was served to juveniles and that it turned into a regular debaucle at times. A Centennial attraction is one thing. Drinking by teenâ€"agers is something else again. _ If it had been only one person mentioning it, we might have thought he got a bum meal and his indigestion was still botherâ€" ing him. When a couple of dozâ€" ens come in with the same story, then there is definitely something to it. ra arte not only so rough a truck has trouble getting through them, the one on the Salem road is abâ€" eolutely dangerous and there is not even a marker to indicate the soâ€"called detour. On a sagging section of snow in crude hand letâ€" tering is the word CLOSED. Nothing is said about being able to get around the barrier, and at night, the sand hole referred to as a detour, cannot be seen from the road. The Centennial Hofbrau may have been a financial success, but it certainly left a bad taste in the mouths of a lot of people . . . not through the food they served either. Just why these paving concerns are allowed to get away with the ruts they call detours, improper lighting, destruction of property adjacent to the project and anyâ€" thing else they think of, is hard to understand. The county where the building is going on must have some kind of inspection on these culverts and anything reâ€" lated to them. If they have and are allowing the construction company to get away with anyâ€" thing and everything, then they are as much as fault as the builâ€" ders.
