* After Lhaving two lads about 16 ‘teenish cut across in front of us tonight without even look: ing, we might add; pay partiâ€" cular attention to highâ€"school WELL, THE KIDS ARE off to school and many:a parent drew a deep sigh ofâ€"relief for the are the Joe boys and they must comes around next year. There is also another indiviâ€" dual who must look for these TO YOU HARASSED people who are still calling in about the starlings . . . we‘ll get to your district as quickly as posâ€" sible, but the concentration of birds has been exceptionally heavy this year and the turn out of shooters has been exâ€" ceptionally poor. I‘m afraid that starling shootâ€" ing comes under the heading of work instead of fun and you know how hard it is to get someone to work on these hot nights . . . particularly when there is no pay in the effort. However, even a sfuall group is better than none and we have cured some districts. We‘ll attend to yours just as quickly as we can. AM AMUSED BY a myth curâ€" rently finding its way around that I am independently wealâ€" thy and that I don‘t really need to own this paper to earn a livâ€" ing. i1 know who started this stupidity and believe me if he had thought about it at all, he wouldn‘t â€" have opened â€" his mouth. If I was even wealthy let alone independently so, I sure as Hâ€" would find something easier to do than publish a newspaper. There is also a little matter of beating my brains out on TV, radio and fourteen other dâ€" things that keep me on the jump most of the seven days and nights. I‘ve heard people sound off before that all I did when I wasn‘t at the paper was fish and hunt. You‘re right too for the most part, but I seldom get a chance to bust a partridge or shoot a moose without a camâ€" era being pointed at me and who in â€" Hector do _ you suppose wrote the instructions for the camera to follow beâ€" fore we started out. The individual who started this stupid nonsense is young but not so young that he shouldn‘t know better. Incidâ€" entally, if you have proof of my wealth, because I don‘t, then by all means communiâ€" cate with my bank manager. He‘s like me. He doesn‘t beâ€" lieve it either. IT USED TO BE that when a man stopped coming home for meals, his wife worried about his interest in another woman. These hot days she doesn‘t worry at all. She knows that worry at all. She knows that friend hubby is simply staying and having a sandwich in his air conditioned office, rather his hot home. J.H.S. J.H.S. JHS V ol.

The new City Hall will stand partially on the fire staâ€" tion site. This is the prediction of Waâ€" terloo Fire Chief Clayton Baulk. It is anyone‘s guess when all these changes will come about, but Chief Baulk has discussed future fire hall sites thoroughâ€" ly with members of Waterloo Council‘s fire ard light comâ€" mittee and the committee apâ€" proved his iceas in principle.

Several Twin City Boy Scouts enjoyed a day‘s outing at the Canadian National Exhibition Saturday, Aug. 29th., under the direction of Scouter Richard Williams. This was the big day they had planned and been anxiously waiting for, and they were filled with excitement as they boarded the Grey Coach bus bright and early Saturday morning. Arriving at the grounds, the: boys paired off, and started on their tour of the exhibition grounds. It was suggested to the boys that a tour of the Ontario Building should be a must, because of its importâ€" ance to. Scouting. It is in this building that it was felt they would learn something of the Conservation of their country, and gain ideas on Forestry. There would also be many departments which look after our Province, and gain some knowledge of the Provincial Government, and the way in which it operates. The Governâ€" ment Building was also stresâ€" sed as a further important }stopping place. Checking in + #k A restaurant on Badenâ€"Powâ€" ell Road was chosen as the checking in spot, here the boys all met for lunch and later on in the day for supper. Followâ€" ing supper the boys took off in a group to watch the Armed Forces Display, and they proâ€" ceeded to the grandstand to enâ€" joy the evening performance. After the performance the tired boys and the tired Old Owl headed for the bus, and soon were homeward bound. "Did I say TMMIRED" â€" they sang all the way home accomâ€" panied by a group of fellows from the YM.CA. in Galt. It was a grand day and all enjoyâ€" ed themselves immensely and are looking forward to another such day next year. Almost forâ€" got â€" the Scouts enjoyed the company of a Wolf Cub Pack from Niagara Falls, New York at the Exhibition.

It is Mr. Wagner‘s prediction that the historical schoolhouse â€" Waterloo‘s first â€" will colâ€" lapse in five to 10 years if it continues to be left neglected. The trustee said it is a dis grace for the oidest school in Ontario to be left like this. It‘s being carried away by termites, said the trustee. Two years ago the trustee urged city officials to move the antique school to a corner of the MacGregor School grounds at King and Central Streets where it could stand as the foâ€" Kitchener Scouts from _ the Twin Cities, as they. hiked off to Banff, Alberta to attend the Canadian Rover Moot being held there August 27th to Sept. 1st. With packsacks on their backs, Owen Whitby of the 5th. Kitchener Rover Crew, and Jim Kingham of the 24th. Kitchener Scout Troop, started out August the 17th. Last Friâ€" day I received a postcard from them saying "We‘re Here", and mentioning that they had met and joined some of the Rover Scouts from the Green Acres Region. The Canadian Rover Moot is much like a Scout Jamboree, hoys associated with the great game of Scouting get together from many parts of the counâ€" try, from Newfoundland to British Columbia. The boys came to the Moot in planes, trains, trucks, buses, and some, like the two fellows from our community, on foot. I will conâ€" tinue their story further in next week‘s column under the heading Banff or bust. Ontario Rover Moot On the Labor Day weekend the Brighton District Boy Scouts acted as hosts to 250 Rover Scouts from all towns and cities from A to Z across Ontario at the official openâ€" ing of the Ontario Rover Moot at Presqu‘ile Point Park. The camp programme consisted of: Sports Activities, Jungle Actiâ€" vities, Water Demonstrations by the Brighton Yatch Club. To close off the evening a large camp fire was enjoyed with an interesting talk by Mr. Bob Thomson M.P. for Northumâ€" beriand, a former Queen Scout and Rover. Monday morning an interestâ€" ing discussion period was held and such topics as; â€" The meanâ€" Rover Skippers; and the Rover Uniform. Chairman for the disâ€" cussions was Camp Chief W. T.

Two years ago Mr. Wagner‘s suggestion was "held in abeyâ€" ance" when the Ontario Pio neer Community Foundation also asked for the relic for its Pioneer Community Village at At the beginning of this year the Waterloo Park Board atâ€" tempted _ to refurnish the school but was not allotted the necessary monies by Waterloo Council. The school has been closed for many years but was long a point of interest for tourists in the park. In 1957, during Waterloo‘s Centennial, the building was equipped with light and left open for inspection. It is now filled with park equipment. Waterloo y Planners‘ _ Idea Passed Mr. Wagner said he isn‘t planning to again press for its restoration and location. Howâ€" ever, he feels someone should do it because it will be a prized historical possession, one of the most prized in Ontario in 50 years. The KW > Suburban Planr ning Board has given approval to a Waterloo Planning Board plan for a grade separation beâ€" tween Dearborn Street and the proposed _ controlled _ access The plan shows a grade seâ€" paration between Dearborn and the major road, with a simple interchange. It also shows Westmount Road ending in a Tâ€"intersection _ at _ Dearbora Street to the east of the major thoroughfare. However, the suburban board, attached one condition to its approval: that befce any development or building is permitted in the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Henry Sturm â€" boulevard and Dearborn and Westmount, further consideration be given to the possibility of providing a cloverâ€"leaf arm. The 1,400 lot Stanley Park subdivision plan proposed by Buildevco, was given approval subject to certain conditions proposed by the Kitchener Planning Board. No solution could be seen for the problem at this time. Concern was expressed by the board about possible futâ€" ure traffic problems which might be created at the interâ€" section of the controlled access road system with River Road and Ottawa Street. avenue section of Kitchener.~ proposed 13â€"iot subdivision beâ€"
