WILL ‘THE JINSTALLATION of: meters kill even a new shopâ€" in downtown Waterloo? scant nine years, will soon be adding more modern stores in their area. This will create a the tremendous amount of proâ€" loo‘s modern stores but a wide selâ€" ection of free parking. Evidently little concern is felt over the Union â€" street shopping area and many downâ€" where its take from the main section of the city will be alâ€" understand there is work goâ€" ing on with the idea of starting to develop it as soon as po# sible. It would be one Hâ€" of a slap in the face if it did beâ€" come a reality only to die in its tracks because of anything as unnecessary and unsavory as parking meters. J.H.S. WATERLOO COUNCILS Bylaw and Legislation committee moved to support an effort by the St. Catherines council to abolish _ capitol punishment (hanging) in the case of murâ€" der. Suggested instead was Jlife imprisonment. Now we aren‘t particularly â€" bloodthirsty, but we think this is about the most stupid thing we have ever heard of. â€" A man must be temporarily off his noggin or be as cold blooded as a fish to kill anâ€" other human unless in war. If he were either, does our esteâ€" emed council members or those in St. Catherines think that for one damn little moment the threat of life imprisonâ€" ment would stop him? Do you as an individual feel that if you ever got to the point where you wanted to rub someone wut that was getting in your hari, that threat of a life senâ€" tence would deter you? Sure the thought of spendâ€" ing the rest of your life in jail is a horrible one, but you wouldn‘t have to. You could knock off your rival or your motherâ€"inâ€"law, be sentenced to life imprisonment and be back out again in a few years if you behaved yourself. Excuse for such nonsense is that we have to bring capital punishment in line with modâ€" ern day thinking. What a joke! Are our esteemed members now trying to tell us that we are more civilized than the pioncers _ that â€" settled this country, just because we don‘t wear a gun on our hip? Life today is strictly a ‘cut your throat for a nickel cash," policy and it gets more so every day, week and year. We guarantee if this juvenile type of nonsense is passed and beâ€" comes law, that there will be one hundred percent increase in the numbers of murders in this country.

During this winter adults and children used the lake‘s icy surface daily to skate and play hockey. Weekends found the area crowded.

C The lake freezing could be accomplished only after a thin film of ice had formed. The artificial freezing of a large body of water like a lake "is pretty original thinking," said Mr. Bobbie. Then, plastic tubing, running from an ice making machine, would be spread over the thin base. A good surface of ice eould then be built up by conâ€" ice cushion might run to $50,â€" 000 or $75,000.
