Mr. Hrrsen is director of the Canadian Mrntal Health As, turv-ciatinln for Waterloo County. Waterloo County officials are to be complimented on their realization that area governmental change is something that is urgently required and for the fact that they did not confine themselves to remain within the present county borders. - They recognize that, just as electoral boundaries had to be changed to fit in with the present situation, so also do county boundaries require change to fit in with present areas of influence and growth patterns.

One rather disturbing thought is that there seems to be no mention of individual municipalities being able to retain their identity. The rather offhand mention of the borough system could be worked in to accomplish this end, but it seems rather difficult. It is, however an excellent start and could easily be- come the bases of other briefs that have yet to be worked but. ‘ Waterloo will definitely be included in this years' Santa parade, according to members of the K- WJaycees. They are looking for more floats from local industries and businesses. How about this community pitching right in and make this a parade to be remembered. Contact Jim Cam, l , SH4-2248. One thing seems rather apparent, that is that some type of amalgamation of communities must and will take place, regardless of how individual municipalities may feel.

Editorial Comment 150 I would suggest that some people be tied then all the logs and posts along the driveway in Waterloo Park would not be necessary to keep humans beings from driving on the grass. When I was a boy, I always had a pet - a dog, a eat, a bird, and once even a rooster. My last pet was a Shetland sheep dog which I had up to three years ago. He now lies sleeping in the pet cemetery. He was a real pal of mine Hor almost 14 years. Every day we would walk three or four miles, now I walk very little and am beginning to feel a little bit old. When my children were small I would read them stories writ- ten by Thorton W. Burgess. He was a famed author of child- ren’s stores about such charact- ers as Peter Rabbit, Mrs. Possum, Old Mrs. Toad, Hooty the Owl, Roddy Fox, Bobby Coon etc. I enjoyed thes stories about ani- mais as much as the children. By FRED SHIN" A few days ago there appear- ed in a local paper an article which I judge was written by a non-animal lover. It stated that cats as well as dogs should be tied and further mentioned that cats stink. How about the fumes from cars and buses that contaminate the air, or the rivers and lakes that are being polluted? All this is done by humans. As I mentioned, my dog lies in a pet cemetery, just outside Paris, France. Iris a large come- tery where some 100,000 friends of man are buried. One of the monuments there is In memory of Barry.

It was in De- cember when he lost his life. He had come upon a lost trav- eller. Tthan, dazed with cold and hunger, saw this strange dog bearing down on him, covered with icicles and barking and be- came filled with terror. In his fear he struck the dog on the head with an iron bar he carried. Mortally wounded, Barry managed to crawl back to the monastery to let the monks know someone required aid. The monks followed his bloody trail back and saved the traveller who became grief-stricken when he realized his tragic mistake. The following also took place in France: Eight lions. two tigers, and two bears escaped from a circus at the community of Val- encunnis. This caused consider- able panic among the inhabitants, however all the animals were re- captured bcfore daybreak, Barry saved the lives of 40 people and was killed by the 4lst. He belonged to the order of St. Bernard and braved the winter storms in the French Alps for almost seven years seek.. ing travellers who became lost overcome by the cold or had fallen into one of the deep snow- drifts. "Sorry, wrong numbers," says Delhi Telephones. The firm ad- milled that more than 10 per cent of the 10,000 numbers listed in its new supplementary dime- tory were wrong.

Won't Ring True One of the full-grown lions had walked calmly into a cafe causing the patrons to disappear witho t paying. The lion siezed a leg of mutton and left by the back door. A tiger walked into a butcher shop and ate an entire lamb. He was captured fast asleep after this meal. One tardy home-goer met with a lion on a street corner. This king of the jungle just sniffed his hand and then went on " way - leaving the man in a dead faint. Another lion smashed the door of a battery and curled himself up on a mat, where he was soon captured sound asleep. On Tuesday. Oct, 5, 1926. a fine wedding took place at the home of Mrs, Frances Kuwnig. Her daughter Elsa became the bride of Harold Rotharrrncl, The ceremony was performed by the Rev John Schmirder. pastor of St. Matthew's Lutheran church. Gradually the prices have boon going up, so, the women, in order to keep in line (they al- ways like to keep upt0~date), have had to do the same wrth their skirts, They continuously raise the hemline and there is no telling where this will stop as there is little danger of prlees coming down. Well, enough about our arit- mal friends. Sometime when you are driv- ing up tho Breslau hill on the Kitchener-Guelph highway, think about what happened some " years ago. The road is now paved, but back then a Toronto-bound bus became mired in a mud hole for more than two hours. Back in August of 1926, a tea- ture of the first fashion show was longer skirts for the Ladies. The cost of dress goods was much loser than they are today.
