lIBERAL CLASSIFIEDS - GET RESULTS When an accident or illness strikes, time is an important factor, and sufiering is alleviated and lives saved, if the proper transportation to hospital can be carried out at once. What is more distressing is to real- ize many victims of highway acci- dents must wait on the roadside while police frantically search for an ambulance. The ambulance service in this area is operated by Mr. Roy Bagley of Richmond Hill. Mr. Bagley by ag- moment serves both Richmond Hill and Vaughan. The councils of these two municipalities have wisely agreed to continue their present ambulance subsidy at least on a trial basis. They will continue to pay $100. monthly An ambulance service is a dire humanitarian need in any commun- ity, and with the expansion in our suburban areas, Richmond Hill, Vau- ghan and Markham, we the citizens shOuId put forth an effort to meet this necessity. This misconception has been fan- ned like a prairie fire by many stories. Even a few eminent authors have joined the chorus â€" one of which suggested that the profession of politics in modern America usually found the politician crawling in the gutter. The problem faced by politicians is that their lives are thrown bare to the public. No other group of people in our soeiety garner so much person- al publicity. The facts good or bad are there for all to judge, as it should be. No group of men in a trade or tofession are immune to fault. We ave all known people in all walks of life that have turned up as bad eggs. Every human being has potential good and bad within him. Consider- ing the glare of publicity which sur- rounds them and the problems that beset them, politicians have been a retty decent lot throughout Canad- an history. Whatever we say about them we must always remember that the art of politics is holding power, power deleqated in Canada from the elector on an election day for a specified periOd of time. If the politician is to be successful in his profession then he must maintain power, and to ac- complish this he must correctly un- Some confess confusion amidst the claims and counter claims and the promises and more promises, but the only answer to this problem is to assess the claims and promises in the light of past performances and There is a popular misconcep- tion abroad in this election year that politics and politicians are funda- mentally dishonest with themselves and with the public they seek to con- vert _to_their point of view. The issues of the campaign have been discussed by leaders and cand- idates in a long campaign and there is no excuse for not knowing the party platforms and candidates. The political parties and candidates have worked hard in an effort to present their claims for support before the electorate and if there is any lack of information the fault must lie with the individual voter who has failed to take advantage of the many op- portunities to meet and hear the candidates and see and hear the leaders. It is very easy to find fault and make excuses. Some are critical of the political parties others talk dis- paragineg of the candidates, some people claim they are too busy and many just take a “don’t care atti- tude”. None of these excuses are good enough. Just pause for one moment and contemplate the fate of many thousands of people in the world who are today denied the privilege of (hing to the polls to select a govern- ment. We still have this privilege and night, so let's make good use of it. Democracy is on trial in a troubled and much disturbed world and if it is to work successfully every citizen must play a part. One of the best guarantees that democracy will work is for everyone to take an interest in public affairs and register a vote on election day. Next Monday is election day, and we urge every qualified voter to go to the place of voting and register a vote for one of the candidates. This is a duty of good citizenship in Can- ada.

In a busy month his calls reach 40. An average of only 25 calls per month makes the service uneconom- ical to operate. Expenses are under- standably high when one considers eQuipment, staff and insurance. The closest other ambulance is in Wood- bridge. When emergencies strike a. com- munity needs a fast reliable ambul- ance service. There is no way to fore- cast when injury will strike but one can be prepared. towards the cost of operating the service until the end of August, at which time the whole matter will once again be studied. There is also the question of the new hospital shortly to be built to serve the southern part of the coun- ty. _This would make an ambulance servxce a necessity. Those among us who term them- selves as politicians, either part or full time, should earn our respect for their interest in public business. Whether we belong to a particular party or not we should be broad mind- ed enough to understand the high human qualities that motivate men and women who enter the rough and tumble of public life. They deserve our respect even though they may not win our vote. derstand what. is acceptable to the majority of the electorate. The art of winning elections has little to do with political theories. On the other hand, it has a great deal to do with leadership. Govern- ments change hands because one leader is able to persuade the elector- ate better than another. He may use an old or new political theory as part of his campaign, but unless he can put his story over to the public, and unless he can get the public to believe in his qualities of leadership he is starting off the wrong track. Election campaigns are gruelling and demanding and the unsung heroes and heroines are the men and women who man the polls and work untiring- ly to get the vote out. They never get their pictures in the paper and they never head a torch-light parade election night, but they are making a useful and necessary contribution to democracy. Thus politics is the art of leader- ship at its keenest point in our society. In the rough and tumble of an election, politicians, like ordinary people, get excited. Like ordinary people too they say things which shouldn’t be said, make promises in the heat of the campaign which on second thought should not have been made. There is not a man or woman in any walk of life worth their salt who hasn’t done as much, or even more. Next Mbnday your most import- ant duty is to vote. It is an important duty to vote, and it’s good advice to vote early. The polling places and locations have been well advertised, but it is a safe bet on election day some votes will be lost because voters attend after the polls close, and some others will say they didn’t know where to vote. You have often heard the expres- sion “vote early and often". Of course you can’t vote often, but you can vote early and if you do so you will earn the gratitude of tired and over- worked party campaigners. One of the really big jobs of any political organization is to get voters to the polls. If you go to the poll early, your name is struck from the party workers’ lists and you relieve the many workers of unnecessary work on a very busy day. All can make some contribution to better government by taking an active interest in some political party. Having done this the plain duty of a good citizen is to go to the polls on election day and register a choice for the candidate he thinks will best serve Canada. make your choice. We believe Our system of govern- ment is the best in the world, and while it may be far from perfect, we think that what is needed most to make it better, is the active interest of our people in the political parties seeking election.

Then you must care enought to polish, revise, scrutinize and even delete what one has written. One’s waste paper basket should be kept full of discarded manu- scripts and one’s desk drawer full of rejection slips. “1 hope that some of my students will take up writing for recreation as well as for examination. Words are important, you see, because they enable commun- ication to take place,” he emphasized. Mr. Youle-White collects Airola paintings, Satok drawings and prints and also modern first editions.

They are: A Commentary on Hem- ingway’s Old Man And The Sea; Notes to Shaw’s Caesar and Cleopatra; Typical Examination Answers to Shakespeare’s Macbeth; The Secret of Studying; Typical Examination Answers to Shakespeares’s Hamlet. His other book is found at the English Ex- change, an-d it is An Inquiry Into The Symbolism of the Old Man And The Sea. Mr. Youle-White’s present project is “Democracy In Canada” (an intelligent young person’s guide to Canadian Institutions and Social Services.) His lecturing experience has been considerable.

He was special lecturer at the Norman MacKenzie Art Gallery, Re- gina, Sask, and is now part-time lecturer in History and Apprectiation of Art at the Ronald Satok School of Fine Art. Mr. Youle-White said that his major writing areas were quite diversified. They include art-histor- ical writing and art criticism (especially painting and sculpture); literary criticism (favorite periods are the 17th and 19th centuries) ; educational philosophy; amateur-psycho-analyses; essays and belles-lettres. “I chose these particular areas only because I am in- terested in them_ and because they are important to me because I believe they help to contribute to that rich background of learning and culture that every teacher should have in order to further enrich the lives of his students,” said Mr. Youle-White. “I also write about the paintings in my collection and am an inveterate writer of letters to the editors of the Lon- don Times and the Toronto Globe and Mail,” he added.

His teaching experience includes posts at Kerrobert, Saskatchewan; Colborne High School and three years at Glebe Collegiate Institute in Ottawa. His present position is that of head of the English department, Thornhill Secondary School. Mr. Youle-White’s interest in writing was due to the personal encouragement of the late Lord Wavell, son of the Field-Marshall, and also to the friendship of Bonamy Dobree and George Wilson Knight, plus the acquaintance of a host of other writers from the late bil‘ Beerbohm Tree up to Sir Maurice Bowra, John-Heath Stubbs, Maurice de Sausmaurez, Arnold Hauser, Sultan Mohammed Want, etc., plus the beneâ€" ficient influence of his frequent visits to Wadham College. by Elizabeth Kelson “WALTER” PLEADS FOR WATER SAFETY AT ALL TIMES That nice young boy, Walter Safety, is soon go- ing to be as famous as Elmer, the Safety Elephant. And for a good reason. Just as Elmer tries to deal with traffic safety, Walter tries to deal with another kind, and that is Safety on the water. Now that Water Safety week is over, don’t think for a moment that a memory of Walter shouldn’t linger on. Walter Safety, that bright little boy who paddles his own canoe, knows all about Water Safety. His main Job . . . in posters, films, and wherever he goes Wlll be to drive home what the Red Cross water safety people have been preaching for 16 years about the courtesies, rules and common sense of water safety. Walter is exceptionally water wise, and he’s chock full of knowledge about swimming, boating, water skiing and scuba diving. If Walter has his way he would have non-swimmers enroll in an approved course today. If you’re already a good swimmer, he would like it immensely if you took one of the Red Cross instructor or leader courses. In fact if there is anything you want to know about Water Safety, just ask Walter, care of your Water Safety Commit- tee, Richmond Hill Branch.of the lied Cross. 0 II I! M.

When a group is not prepared for such a horde of pests it can be dampening to >the enthusiasm! i The club held numerous field trips this spring and found that this year’s migration varied from previous records. The main cause was the extremely dry weather plus hot days very early in May. On May lst. earlier than usual, there was a local wave of warblers. Two weeks later, when there should have been increased activity, the woods seemed comparatively quiet. It is thought that the birds continued their direct flight to their nesting grounds and did not stop for feeding in this vicinity. The nearby marshy areas were definitely not wet enough to attract the usual number of water and shore birds.

The club was fortunate to be one of the first to visit this swamp. The trail was still just a vague line which further gave us the impression that we might be in the midst of some northern wilderness. Several had never seen black spruce growing.
