“it Just Isn’ t Your Town — it's Also You '

The man down the ‘street. growled,
“No, I didn’t go.to the meeting. There: are
too many darn meetings and ‘I’m ‘féd' up."

‘The man in the. blue car complained, ..
“Why doesn’t. the council do something

about those potholes? The streets in this
town are a disgrace.” :

The woman in green had another
angle. “I’m tired of being asked to join
things or. donate to this and that or to go
and help with projects. I can't call my
soul my. own anymore.”

The chairman of too many commit-
tees gripes: ‘Why can’t they get someone
else to do this job? I've been doing it for
years.”

Of course there are too many meet-
ings but how else can the wheels of com-
munity activity turn?

Certainly the potholes are bad but
the season is not right for fixing them.
The il has many p
man wouldn’t serve on.council unless he
gets paid. He’s the first to complain about
his taxes, though.

Sure there are a lot of organizations
and fund-raising campaigns. But they are
all worthwhile causes.

And the chairman of too many com-

bl and that -

mittees would wonder if he was peing: left
40n the, shelf. if he wasn’t asked to, serve

’, with his wide Amowledge of the matter

concerned.
Of course: we all get fed up some-

times another tax notice, another com- ;
mittee, another. meeting, another dona-

tion...

Brother—there's: no end to it! But ‘it’s
your town isn’t it? It'doegn’t matter whe-
ther it is Canal :Flats, Edgewater, Inver-
mere or Athalmer, Brisco, Radium or
Windermere. You live ‘there. It’s..your
own and your town is the way you make
i

Darn this town, you say. They don’t
do ‘this and won't do that. It’s a heck of
a place to live!

But, Brother, let the other fellow nay
that! Let the other end of the valley say
your town is a hole in the wall, that the
people are: unfriendly ‘or uncooperative
or just plain ornery and: Brother they've
had it.

Remember. ‘this—your town is just a
shell; just a. framework .for the spirit

The Undertakers Now Make Their Bid

The provincial government undoubt-
