Maple Trees - According to Mr. Ross Knight, who has had discussions with Vaughan Township Council, and the engineers in regard to the installation of water servi- ces, the Maple trees on Duffer- in Street are being removed mainly because of the installa- tion of the water main on the east side of Dufferin. Had the water been installed on the west side of the road, at less cost for land according to Mr. Knight, then the trees could have re- ‘mained. When in our own'sub- division. the water mains are sometimes on the south and sometimes on the north side of the road, it makes one wonder just what the rules are.

This coincidence of the sixth day of the week with the num- ber 13 usually occurs twice within a twelve month period, although it occasionally occurs only once and sometimes three times a year. I It is most unchristian to show faith in superstition, yet at various times and places and circumstances, superstitious beliefs are brought to the fore and aired, discussed, believed- in and followed in this present- day. supposedly enlightened icivilized part of the world. A common superstition in the present day western society is the belief that misfortune'will strike one on Friday 13. In tracing the origin of this belief, no clues could be found as to why Friday 13 is consid- ered such an unlucky day. Like so many other super- stitions, the belief may be based on nothing more than ignorance or fear which involves peculiar attitudes toward nature, many material things, and the super- natural and God. On the other hand we cannot forget that since the beginning of the Christmas era. Friday has always been regarded as a black day as it was on a Friday that our Lord was crucified. Also, there was in Christ's min- isterial body, 13 members - Christ himself and his twelve Apostles.

There is hardly any of us who has not helped to perpetuate superstitions. Just think about building} owners or lessees who‘ do not allow unlucky 13 to be used as an address or as the floor or room numbers on their prop- erty, not because they, them- selves, may be superstitious, but more than likely because they know that a great many human beings are, and would refuse to be in any way associated with the supposedly unlucky num« ber. And who has not heard about or even known travellers who would not think of journeying on the 13th day of the month. The time has surely came for enlightened folk of this day and age to put away all their superstitions and not allow them to become such a strong influence in their lives. and there is no better time and place to begin regarding Friday as a day just like any other day. a Friday," especially if it is Friday 13 as‘ it is then doubly unlucky to do so, Then there is the old saying ‘never commence a new task on clover.
