Would it not be a good idea then for the police officer on duty near a hotel to warn anyone that appears fipsy, that if involved in a car accident, it could have seriâ€" ous consequences. It would seem to us, that while the ?oliceman would get little thanks for his efâ€" forts from the average indulger, that he would at least be making the effort to avert trouble before it happens. It would almost apâ€" ar from some of the court hearâ€" figs that some police officers have deliberately allowed drunks to operate their cars so that the offiâ€" cers might pick them on a @runk driving charge. Vould it Bot create a better feeling and be: gafer for all concerned if the offiâ€" I)%erenl people react in differâ€" ent ways to the effects of alcohol and while possibly one man who had been drinking might be shocked enough if involved in an accident to appear sober, it is alâ€" together possible that another man might appear even drunker than he is. Dr. R. M. Mitchell of Sudbury, president of the Ontario Medical Association claims that a man who has been drinking may beâ€" come involved in an accident and yet appear perfectly sober to poâ€" lice questioning him. o Many times when this happens, there is a police officer on the corâ€" ner. Other times these same inâ€" dulgers are picked up for driving while under _ the influence or worse still after they have been responsible for an accident in which they are the least likely to get killed. _ __ â€" Almost every night of the week, and particularly on a Saturday night, dozens of people leave loâ€" ca) beverage rooms, weave Auidly up the street and crawl into their cars. f‘robably the greatest single service | the â€" supervised â€" playâ€" grounds perform is the keeping of children off the streets during the summer season. They don‘t get into mischief and they don‘t get killed by cars. J.HS. With so many children using the playgrounds, the clean record certainly speaks well for the reâ€" creation director and his choice of supervisors. â€" No child in the summer playâ€" ground age group has been an aute fatality accident victim this summer. Nor were there any acâ€" cidents in the playgrounds. That Waterioo city playgrounds have become increasingly popular with the smaller set is seen in the 5,000 attendance increase over last year. A total of 29,034 children _ attended during â€" the sevenâ€"week season. It also to our mind, proves that Don McLaren and his supervisors must be doing a terrific job to atâ€" tract the interest of so many chilâ€" dren _ and _ hold â€" this interest throughout the entire summer hoâ€" liday period. Even if the cop himself does not care about living, he might at least consider the high cost of having car body work done. J.H.S. w"‘ * # This has not happened once, but several times and while he apparently likes to live dangerâ€" ously, motorists having to stand on their brakes to get stopped in time hardly appreciate his blase indifference. One of the younger Kitchener policemen is going to be picking pieces of car bumper out of his northern posterior if he insists on walking into fast moving traffic and escorting his friends across the main drag. Waterloo and Kitchener people and others locally are known for a good cause. The heroism of Mitchell has done more than merely catch the public fancy. It has embued some of the collectors with almost fanatical zeal in the task they have set themseives. The John Mitchel! Memorial Fund has now made such headâ€" way, there seems little doubt but that the objective will be reached. in fact, there is always the possiâ€" bility that the fundt will be overâ€" subscribed, for money is still pouring in. Smail and large firms have done their own collecting and many of them have subscribed funds far in excess of their number of emâ€" ployees. Certainly the most of them could have had a lot of use from the buses during the past few days. 2 Local lawns and flower gardens have benefitted and are beginning to assume almost a summer look. Of course it is summer as yet, but fall is sneaking in mighty fast Regardless of the farmers‘ feelâ€" ings, most city folk are glad to see the rain, but wish it wouldn‘t try to imitate winter while it was at it. No recent word from the crossâ€" town bus front and we are beginâ€" ning to wonder if those people on the edges of Waterloo are going io be caught without transportaâ€" tion during the bad weather. Heavy rains for a couple of days of this week have been termed "million dollar rains", but while the dairy farmer is rejoicâ€" ing the tobacco farmer is cursing every drop that falls at this time. would apprehend those who JHS JHS FP _ _Preston is currently in the throes of a meter situation.

The only service meters perform there is swelling the citfy coffers for space nlrndx paid for by the taxpayers. salesman from out of ton can park all day if he wants He couldn‘t get away with the same manoeuyre before meters were installed. Preston will find that not only will the meters aggrayste the parking problem, but that they will also lose a certain class of shoppers adverse to shelling out to this type of holdup. While we had one prominent Kitchener merchant tell us today that he doubted the Friday night opening would come for all stores within the near future, he did say he thought it a good idea. Presently, _ these _ oneâ€"armed bandits are not in use during the evening hours and those wishing to attend a theatre or other forms of entertainment, may park at the metered sections without hayâ€" ing to shell out. If, as it has been rumored, Kitchener stores are coming to the Friday night opening, what is going to be done about the parkâ€" ing meters? drank not wisely, but too well, before the drinker was allowed to operate ‘his car?

Of the 125 descenâ€" dants, 69 were able to attend. 69 ATTEND RUPPEL REUNION The park crews have not done much work on the upper diamond this year. And, with smaller crowds attending games there this season, the cleanup costs have not been great. _ The park board, while it would not turn on the floodlights for the combined Gueliphâ€"Waterloo team, allowed it to use the field for games which were sometimes cut short by darkness. Turning on the lights for even two minutes of baseball would have cost about $500 service charge, the board said. Minor baseball teams, which previously had to play on the diaâ€" mond in the gark oval, took over the enclosed field this year. Clubs from the city‘s minor system used the field nearly every night. However, the ball diamond has been in use almost every night. Waterloo Park earned $60 from baseball games this summer in rent. The Guelphâ€"Waterloo Royâ€" als, who played five games in the park this year, paid $10 rent for each game. Another $10 rent came from Elmira‘s intermediate team which used the baseball diaâ€" mond for one game. Last year the field was used all seltson by the nowâ€"defunct Waâ€" terloo Tigers, who ending the seaâ€" son with a huge deficit, failed to pay any rent. bntt t nds lt ioh ie atud J No action was taken on a proâ€" posal by the Union Natural Gas Company to supply natural gas The PUC will have to raise the water rates to finance the expenâ€" diture, W.
