A familiar dilemma being faced by families living in the suburbs is where to do their shopping. This problem in recent years has become common to many areas in both Canada and the United States. With the rapid growth of large areas adjacent to great cities and the subsequent influx into these suburbs of many new residents from ,these same cities, one of the problems to be dec1ded is where to shop. Should they change their present shopping pattern of buy- ing in the big city and begin investigat- ing the possibility of buying locally? The various municipalities located on the fringe of the Metropolitan areas are separate entities featuring com- plete shopping facilities of their own. The value of shopping locally was aptly described in a recent feature length article appearing in an American publication of wide circulation in which a young suburban couple describe their experience in buying a combination washer and drier from a citydiscount hduse. l ‘ We shall let the young housewife recount her own story: ‘ ~ “Taking advantage of one such fabulous offer, we found that delayed delivery, lack of service, and inconven- ience was the unadvortised accompani- ment to the discount. And we were lucky at thatfforiI understand that some unscrupulous dealers will sell ap- pliances and' the like which do not bear the manufacturer's serial number ‘â€" in that case, the manufacturer may not - stand behind the merchandise if Some' thing goes wrong. Well, we bought a dryer from one of the warehouse “20- ' 40% on." concerns.

And then we discovered that there would be a $10 installation fee. They didn’t tell us that “installation” in this case meant no. more than plug- ging the cord into our socket, they did not explain that this model required a vent, and they didn't warn us that we'd need a 220 volt circuit to operate it. The dryer, which was to have been de- livered the following Monday, finally ap- peared ten days later. Meanwhile, I'd spent over a dollar on telephone calls about it, and had missed two days of work on days when delivery was prom- ised but didn't take place â€" another loss, since I don’t get paid for days I don't work. When the dryer finally did arrive, the deliverymen explained about the vent. They" couldn‘t install the thing. For another 810 they’d Come back another'day and do it, but they didn't quite know when. By this time I' was furious and determined not to lose the rest of my vanishing discount. But there sat my dryer, useless. My husband finally installed it, spending money for tools he’ll probablynever use again, since he’s not the handyman type. I noticed that my dryer had not been delivered in its original crate, and that there was a chip in the enamel, but I decided to overlook it rather than go kthrough the ordeal- of sehding it ac I” The next time you dread a shop-- ping trip to the big city, look around at homevfirst.

"Grandma says you're all ’rhumbs. but none of them are green!" Proposes Local Hospital Dear Mr. Editor: Many old timers like myself will recall the lines in a one time famous play. spoken if I remember by Lilian Langtry, a famous actress of yesteryear. They were: “You may tell the Jersey Lily that the sights will knock her silly. climbing up the golden stairs." The present altogether phen- omenal growth of Richmond Hill, and, in fact. of the entire North Yonge St. district is met- aphorically speaking a climb up a golden stairs. a climb of the type that would drive even a reasonably sensible person silly. It is not, however. a climb we can merely sit down and enjoy. If more houses, industries and population are to be of bene- ‘fit to North Yonge St., all of us must play a part in steady- ing the golden stairs. Our town planning and revised building regulations, the skill of our builders in the construction of *beautiful homes. ‘the induce- mé’nts we are able to put be- fore' prospective . industrialists are all helpful. However, we can not afford to forget any- thing in that connection. I! .we do we will not attain. the possible height. “ For that reason I would sug- gest that such subjects as acci- dents and health should receive our serious consideration, not later on when factors concomi- tant with our growth will make the solution of new ’problems ’difiicult and expensive. but right now when such solutions may be evolved with compara- tive ease. .

I I know that hospitals have been and still are classified as luxuries and that their operaâ€" tion often entails municipal de- ficits. But after checking with well informed authorities, I do not hesitate to say that our dis- trict could have a hospital with- out any capital cost to the mun- icipalities. A hospital that ». would not involve yearly defi- cits to be paid out of tax monâ€" ies, a hospital with a schedule of rates et to be determined, but lowe rather than higher than those prevailing else- where, a\ hospital that any and every physician in our locality would praise.

Any and every ef- fort I make to further the cause of such an establishment is absolutely gratis and will re- main so. Sincerely yours, Russell Fox, P.O. Box 97. Richmpnd Hill WHO IS THE GREATEST A few weeks ago, on a panel discussion ~ on /television, a group of four leaders was ask- ed the question: J‘Who is the greatest man in the world." It is an interesting question for any one to hazard a guess. The panel was made up of four in- telligent Americans and I felt sure the answer would be an American citizen. Three of the four said “Al- 'bert Schweitzer of Africa." It was a magnificent tribute to one who has given more than 40 years of his life to serving â€"- in every way he can â€" the na- tives of North West Africa. The story of his life is one of the most thrilling of all time and it is one of a" man, tremen- dously gifted, but utterly hum- ble and self-enticing. A few years ago I told, in a book for boys. 8 story of Schweitzer‘s boyhood, and I want to repeat it here. He was not a quar‘relsome boy but he did enjoy the games in which he took part and he enjoyed a friendly tussle. One day, when returning from school,-he wres- tled with a boy somewhat big‘ ger than himself. Albert real- ly thought the boy, was strong- er than he. but he resolved to do his best. To his surprise the big boy was not so strong after all, and Albert soon had ' ’ him lying on his, back. Then it was that this boy. whose peop- le were very poor, said some- thing that Albert was never to forget. Lying there, defeated, the boy whispered: “If I got. broth twice a week as you do, I should be as strong as you arei" Albert Schweitzer then realized how poor this boy was and how frugally his parents lived. Many years afterwards, _ when he became a famous man. he wrote: “This caused me much suffering. for I wanted to be like the other boys and live as they lived. Broth became nauseous to me; whenever I saw it steaming on the table I could hear George Nitschelm's voice." From that day Albert tried in every way to be like the boys of the village who were for the mom part quite poor. When his parents had a comfortable overcoat made up for him he refused to wear it. His mother took him to get a new cap and when the shop: lady produced a fine-looking cap he refused to try it on. "Well, what do you want. stup- id boy?" thelshoplady fairly shouted. Albert replied: “I want a cap like the ones the village boys wear." The boys of the village wore wooden clogs during the week and ,lea- ther boots only on Sundays, so he did thesame. A willingness to put himself in other people's place and see things as they do has been a characteristic , of this great man. He knows that over and over again one must make al- lowance for others and remem- ber their handicaps. This would be a better world if more peo- ple di that. A wise man once said: ‘If we could read the se- cret history of our enemies we should find in each man’s sor- row and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.” Let us train ourselves to’ see the good in other people rather than the evil and to make allowance for their weakness if there be any.
