But it’ is the reponsibility of the individual to see that his or her name’ is on the list: and the time to do that is now — during August or September. ~ Residents ofthe rural areas such as Robson and Thrums may, of course, fol- low this procedure for school board pur- poses. The procedure for having. your name -added.to the voter’s list is quite simple: Regulations set out by the: Municipal Act These declaration’ forms are avail: able ‘at both village’ offices’ and at the school: board ‘office and take ony, a-mo- ment to fill out.

He was a 38-year-old railroad engineer — father of two, children.’ After receiving the praises of his company he said sim- ply: “If the letter saves. one - life, I'm glad.” * I don’t know who you are, it’s true, but I do know you were scared to death Sunday evening near 9 o’clock when you drove your car across directly ‘in front- of my speeding passenger train. It was so close that I, in the cab, could see you and the young girl (your sweetheart, I presume) throw her hands up. in front of her face and cringe up against you in stark horror. If. I were that. young girl I'd. pull - away from you, fast. You don’t have good _ sense, son. You . probably” say you love her. I wonder. Those we love we try to protect. But not you. Wouldn't that have been a nice Communists Attack ol’ Charlie Brown Those communists are ‘at it again; at- tacking’ yet another cultural giant of the: Western world. The: target this’ time is good ol’ Charlie Brown, hero of the world-syndi- cated Peanuts.comic strip. According to the Italian communist newspaper Unita, Lucy is a fascist; Linus . has a. “suicide complex” from whieh he saves himself. by carrying around a blan- ket: to ‘substitute for the motherly bosom; while Snoopy the, dog “varies between his own life as a dog, and the aspiration to become another beast or man.” Charlie’ Brown comes out well in-a back-handed sort of way, ‘ described’ as “the only. one who is precariously bal- .shoes. . Christmas present. to hand your mother — a broken and battered: body. And. how do you think we, in the cab of that en- gine, would: feel? We are human beings too: We have young ones waiting home for us to return to. We, too, could have been killed. You and your girl were one second _ from eternity, ‘son. I hope you read this and know it means you and that your girl will, too. Next time you go driving around, stop and look. We don’t want to hit you, but we are helpless as we cannot swerve away from our given rails. ( If I were you, son, and you too, sis, Yd thank God for that split second He granted ‘to you.

Hutchison didn’t know for sure. Mr. Nicholas suggested he drop into The Times next day. That was it. Hutchison went to work as a cub reporter, filling pastepots and filing cuts. Since then, by dint of hard work, much study and a sincere concern for Canada and his fellow men, Bruce Hutchison has reached the very top of Canadian journa- lism, s He's a worry-wart type of man, always convinced we stand on the brink of doom. But he has a wry sense of humor, knows how to poke fun at himself. Though born in Ontario, he was brought up in Victoria, and though he’s often away, he refuses to live anywhere else. In summer he rusticates and works and’ chops wood and meditates at Shawnigan Lake, which he planned as'a hide- ber ‘of people beat their’ way prong the bush to consult with When his name was‘ on the front pages of the newspaper the other day I'looked up a speech he made in 1951 to ‘the ity of British veh was then making him: an honorary ‘doctor of laws. way, but to which,a terrific num-|. deeper that the minority shall: have’ the chance to prove that it is right.”.
