'Ot’her Editors Say It says that "unionâ€"made products are better made. Whether you drink it, wear it, eat it or drive itâ€"if it‘s Union Made, it‘s a guarantee of skilled workmanship and a mark of superior quality." This is not only nonsense, but a reflection on the workmanihip of the 75 per cent of Canadian craftsmen who are not members of nor beholden to trade unions. (From The Printed Word) A publication caled "The Canadian Unionist" publishes an adâ€" vertisement from a London, Ont., brewer in which trade unions are buttered up to the extent that Mr. Gardiner‘s surplus is noticeably reduced thereby. With this in mind, Mr. Average Motorist, unless he wants the picture of a child going down in front of his car to haunt him; would be well advised to make sure his brakes, steering and reflexes are in top condition. On top of these he should automatically cut his speed every time he notices a youngster within jumping distance of the road. A matter of seconds lost, sometimes also means the loss of a life. We are prone to attach a great deal of importance to these seconds without understanding what we are trying to save them for. Slow drivers on the highways are a menace. Slow drivers in congested areas are a must! Small children are completely and utterly thoughtless. If they decided to cross a road, the majority do so without a thought as to traffic or any other hazard. They are like a chicken. All they want to do is get to the other side. It isn‘t that he is thoughtless or unmindful of others. He just lives in a world that is moving a little too fast for him to be comâ€" fortable and he does much of his driving without thinking of the consequences. Yet many times he will take chances with the liyes of other children. He doesn‘t slow down enough when in the vicinity of a school, or a playground. He spots one standing at the side of the road or a group pf them playing around some parked cars, but he refuses to curtail his speed. The average driver is as careful as his driving experience perâ€" mits. He loves his wife and his children and the mere thought of involving them in a car accident sends cold shivers down his back. Age is a barrier to all out participation in outdoor winter sports. It at the same time sharpens the enjoyment for that available inâ€" doors. Even the younger people seem more reluctant to leave their homes during the winter than during the summer. M Maybe there is recompense for the snow we shovel and the heavy clothing we wear during this period of the year, in that our families remain closer to us than at any other time of the year. Without the winter months, some families would become almost strangers to each other. Meals change with the weather and the appetizing aroma of hot food attracts the attention as soon as you arrive home. Appetites are keener too, for somehow cold weather has the opposite effect to that of summer. Hard as they are to find, there are compensations for this time of year. The home seems cosier at night with the fire on and all the doors and windows closed. The family is more inclined to stay at home than they were during the warmer weather. The weather now has definitely taken on the complexion of winter. There is snow in the air and in some places much of it on the ground. Some young people enfoy this time of year. The average person past forty shudders in time with the fall of the snowflakes. Their first reaction is to reach for heavier underwear and the winter coat. Editorial Comment!
