Impressive Tribute Paid Rev. Raoul Rouleau Instantly Killed In Car Crash Early Friday

Bishop Brodeur and Diocesan Clergy Among Many At Funeral, Monday, of Cornwall Parish Priest, A Former Resident Here

*■ Members of St. Francis de Sales parish, Cornwall, with His Excel-

lency Bishop Brodeur, members of the diocesan clergy and many relatives and friends, paid an impressive last tribute to the memory of Rev. J. A. Raoul Rouleau, their parish priest, killed in a highway crash at Glen Walter, early Friday morning of last week.

Many Alexandria and. district relatives and friends of Father Rouleau were present at the funeral, Monday morning in Cornwall, and others were present for the Libera in Sacred Heart Church here, and at

Large Crowd At W’mstown Fair Despite Cold And Rain

Attendance Down From Last Year’s Record Turnout But Officials Pleasantly Surprised — Show Hall Exhibits Exceptionally Good

Ontario’s oldest agricultural fair at Williamstown, yesterday, was not fortunate enough to escape the rains which have plagued this area almost daily. But officials were pleasantly surprised by the attendance, which was down considerably from last year’s record 4,000, but nonetheless good considering the day. Clear weather Tuesday saw the grounds in good shape, but then the rains returned Wednesday morning to hamper activities and no doubt cut the attendance.

It rained until 2 p.m., cleared for a couple of hours, but then the “wet weather returned to send many home earlier than usual. the interment in Sacred Heart

cemetery. Father Rouleau was a former resident of Alexandria, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Euclid Rouleau.

He died in the wreckage of his automobile which met in collision with a loaded transport on Highway 2. just east of Glen Walter. He was 56.

His Excellency Bishop Brodeur pontificated at the Solemn Funeral Mass, at 10 o’clock Monday, in the parish church, which was crowded with mourning parishioners, rela- tives and friends. Assisting him were Rev. Henry Bougie and Rev. Elzear Danis, deacon and sub- deacon of the Mass. Monsignor R. j. MacDonald and Monsignor ,J. A. Goulet were deacons of honor at the throne, and Monsignor J. A. Brunelle was assistant priest.

Master of ceremonies was Rev. Rheal Gagnon, secretary to Bishop Brodeur, who has been charged with administering the parish during the vacancy.

At the side altars, Low Masses were said by Rev. Rolland Rouleau, brother of the dead priest, and by Rev. Adalbert Lalonde.

Following the Libera, Bishop Brodeur delivered the funeral oration.

A lengthy cortege estimated at 250 cars accompanied the remains to Alexandria, where the Bishop sang a second Libera in Sacred Heart Church prior to interment in the parish cemetery. Assisting here were Rev. Emilien Houde, parish priest, and Rev. J. D. McPhail, rector of St. Finnan’s. Rev. Hollis LaPierre was cross-bearer.

A very large number from Alex- andria and the neighboring parishes was present for the last rites at Sacred Heart.

Attending the funeral were the 42 priests of the Alexandria diocese as well as several monsignori and priests from the Ottawa and Kings- ton dioceses.

Father Houde recited the prayers at the grave.

The pall-bearers were: Joseph Dellsle, Floyd Sheridan, J. W. Le- roux, Fred Legault, Floyd Doyon and John Drouin.

The body lay in state in his parish church from Sunday afternoon until the hour of the funeral, and an estimated 3,0.00 people filed by the bier to pay a last tribute. Divine office was recited by Bishop Brodeur and the priests of the diocese and members of various Cornwall par- ochial associations attended the wake in turn. Units of Nativity Gnard provided a guard of honor through Monday night.

One of two brothers who are members of the diocesan clergy, Rev. Raoul Rouleau was born at Bourget, Ont., April 24th, 1898, a son of Euclid Rouleau and his wife, Elda Beaudry. He obtained his primary education at Bourget and attended .Ottawa College and sem- inary before completing his theo- logical course at St. Augustine’s Seminary, Toronto.

Father Rouleau came to Alex- andria in 1916, when his father pur- chased the Ottawa Hotel.

He was ordained a priest Novem- ber 30th, 1923, in St. Finnan’s Cathedral here, by the late Bishop Couturier and served at Cornwall’s Nativity parish, Crysler, Lancaster and Moose Creek before being named parish priest of St. Francis de Sales parish, Cornwall, 12 years ago.

To mourn his tragically sudden death, Father Rouleau leaves four brothers and two sisters: Dr. Bruno J. Rouleau, J. E. Ubald Rouleau, of Cornwall; Romeo Rouleau, Alex- andria; Rev. J. D. Roland Rouleau, parish priest at Glen Robertson; Miss Madeleine Rouleau, R.N., of Montreal, and Fleur Ange, Mrs. O. Lafleur, Detroit, Mich.

Father Rouleau was driving alone and was returning to Cornwall from the Lancaster cottage occupied by the diocesan clergy, when the acci- dent occurred. He suffered multiple head injuries and met instant death while his car ' was completely wrecked. The eastbound Smith Transport vehicle careened into the south ditch but did not overturn.

Cleansing Rains Crime is never exactly ramp-

ant here. But the wet weather appears to have had a dampen- ing effect on even minor mis- demeanors.

Chief Eddie Dupuis reports only one call on his services in 11 days, and that one so minor he can’t even recall it.

W’mstown Loses Beloved Citizen

Williamstown and the surround- ing community suffered the loss of a beloved citizen in the death of Miss Jessie S. Cattanach, which occurred in Toronto, September 17th, following a long and painful illness.

Miss Cattanach was among Glen- garry’s most brilliant educational- ists. She entered Queen’s Univer- sity at the age of seventeen, with three scholarships to her credit—the Niçois Foundation, the Marion Stewart, and the McLennan, which latter she used.

Her chosen profession was teach- ing and from the principalship of the Williamstown Public School she went to the staff of the High School in 1911. For seventeen years her personality and her work among: the students endeared her to them all, she being as she was, an under- standing adviser and friend. In il928. Miss Cattanach went out from the school on leave of absence. But, although she was unable to return to work, her interest and contacts with her former students remained.

She combined with her teaching, work in the public library, where as librarian she gave freely of her time and services for many years.

During her long - Illness, Miss Cattanach remained actively inter- ested in the work of St. Andrew’s Church, arid of the Women’s Mis- sionary Society, of which she was a^Life Member.

A brief memorial service was held in Toronto, Sunday, September 19th, which was conducted by Rev. D. A. McKeracher, assisted by Dr. A. D. Matheson, principal of Em- manuel College, Toronto University.

The funeral in St. Andrew’s Church, Williamstown, was on Tuesday afternoon, September 21st, during which her pastor, Rev. G. W. Irvine, paid high tribute to Miss Cattanach’s Christian character. The high school was closed, the staff was in attendance, and the student body represented.

Poll-bearers were: Messrs. W. J. C. Barrett, Bryce McNaughton, W. Cattanach, Mac. McRae, Alex. Mc- Baln and Stewart McGillis.

Left to mourn the loss of their sister are: two brothers and four sisters: C. A. Cattanach, Williams- town; J. Arpad Cattanach, Toronto; (William paid the supreme sacrifice in World War I); Miss Mabel Cattanach, Toronto; Mrs. Charles Girdler, Toronto; Mrs. Bryce Mc- Naughton, Martintown, and Miss Alice Cattanach, New Haven, Conn.

The driver, Clarence Yeldon of Brockville, escaped injury and damage to his rig was estimated at $700.

OPP Constable Elwood Foster of Lancaster, investigated the accident.

Roger Chenier, 28, formerly of Alexandria, is still in serious con- dition in Notre Dame Hospital, Montreal, after being buried in a tunnel cave-in in Lemoyne Park, Montreal. The young man received

Grotto Dedication Set For Sunday

The solemn blessing and dedica- tion of the Fatima Shrine on the grounds of the Retreat House here, called off last Sunday because of the tragic death of Rev. J. A. R. Rou- leau, will be held this Sunday after- noon, September 26th.

Rev. Leo MacDonell said today the program will be the same as that announced last week. o

Airforce Day Held At Lancaster

Officials took full advantage of a lull in almost steady rain, Sunday, to complete ceremonies at Lancas- ter in observance of the Battle of Britain.

It was the largest parade in com- memoration of the gallant stand of Empire airmen yet staged under the auspices of Cornwall Wing 424, RCAF Association.

Only event of the program to fall prey to the foul weather conditions was the pre-service parade from the centre of the village to the church.

The service was held in packed St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, with Capt. N. F. Sharkey, pastor, in charge. Wing Commander Frank Aldridge was organist.

Guest preacher at the morning service was Wing Commander J. Dunn, of the RCAF, who reminded his listeners of the devotion to duty and self-sacrifice of the Battle of Britain heroes and urged both vet- erans and embryo servicemen to continue the fine tradition estab- lished.

Following the service, the parade moved off to the Cenotaph, where a wreath was placed by Air Vice Marshal G.-E. BrookesrC.B., O.B.E., national president of the RCAF Association. The, president of Lan- caster branch of the Canadian Legion, Denis Lynch, also plated a wreath at the base of the memorial.

Cut flowers were placed along- side the wreaths by Mrs. Peter Mc- Laren, Lancaster resident who has “mothered’’ the fallen and kept fresh flowers at the base of the

] memorial for years. Following the wreath-laying cere-

monies, the parade held a march- past, with AVM. Brookes taking the salute.

Afterwards, all those taking part in the parade were entertained at the Moose Head Inn, Lancaster.

Units participating in the cere- monies included Wing 410, RCAFA, Ottawa; Wing 424, RCAFA, Corn- wall; Legion branches from Corn- wall, Lancaster, Alexandria, Haw- kesbury and Apple Hill; Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron 325 (Kiwanis), and Royal Canadian Sea Cadet Squadron, Stormont.

The parade was led by the RCAF Training Command band from Trenton.

Two Injured Slightly When Car Left Road

Edgar Cadieux, 39, of Pointe Claire, Que., was sent to hospital with lacerations and there was ex- tensive damage to his late model car as the result of an accident on Sunday afternoon on County Road 23, south of Glen Robertson.

According to police, the car went into the ditch as Mr. Cadieux was proceeding north. A passenger, Donald Hay of St. Catharines, re- ceived only a slight injury. Mr. Cadieux was taken to Hotel Dieu Hospital, Cornwall, suffering from shock and cuts.

in Montreal. The accident occurred last August 30th while Chenier was employed by Carrit Construction digging a tunnel in the park.

His wife, the former Gisele Bert- rand, and daughter, Nicole, seven, reside in Alexandria.

It was the second serious accident to befall the family within a year. A brother, Rolland, lost his left arm last March as the result of a fall from a tree while he was employed with a tree surgery firm.

Road Surfacing Now Complete

Asphalt surfacing of Highway 43 between Alexandria and Apple Hill is now completed and work is pro- ceeding on gravelling the shoulders. The contractors, Harvey Construc- tion Co., have only to lay the sur- face asphalt on the stretch of the highway in Alexandria from the town line to Main street. This will be done today, if weather permits, as well as the shoulders, which will taper to either sidewalk.

New sidewalks, which are to be laid on Kenyon street west, will have to await the coming of Spring. We understand petitions have been signed by some 95 percent of prop- erty owners, but there remain the engineering work, drafting of the by-law and its approval at Toronto. These will take time and there isn’t too much time until first frost. o —

Fine Weather For Crossing

Destined to dock at Greenoch, September 15th, Miss Ruth Mac- Leod, one of the five Glengarrians now on a tour of Scotland, writes that the Atlantic crossing on the Franconia was perfect.

The meals are out of this world, Ruth writes, the entertainment such that one can’t take in everything, and the accommodations are per- fect. The sea has been smooth as silk right across, she reports, and the weather so favorable that the ship was ahead of schedule and had to anchor off-shore for a few hours.

According to the itinerary, the party is spending -three days this week on the Isle of Skye. o

Suffered Stroke While Here For Funeral

Archie Danis of Truxton, N.Y., is reported to be .dangerously ill In Hotel Dieu Hqspj^J, Cornwall^ after suffering â'sts^eÿfelë' a'guèst at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Romeo Rouleau in Alexandria on Monday. Mr. Danis and his family were here to attend the funeral of Rev. J. A. R. Rouleau, accidentally killed on Highway No. 2 last Friday. o

Many At Funeral G. W. McDougald

A large number of sympathizing relatives and friends were present at the funeral of George Walter Mc- Dougald, held August 28th to St. Finnan’s Cathedral and cemetery here.

The Solemn Mass of Requiem was chanted by Rev. Donald B. MoDou- gald, a cousin of the deceased, with Rev. J. D. McPhail as deacon and Rev. E. J. Macdonald as sub-deacon. Present in the sanctuary were Msgr. D. R. Macdonald and Rev. A. L. Cameron.

Pall-bearers were Cyrille Gagnier, Donald McDougald, Alex McKinnon, Archie McDougald, Alex McMillan and Alex McKinnon.

Mr. McDougald passed away at Hotel Dieu Hospital, Cornwall, where he had been a patient following a fall which injured his hip. He was 80 years old.

He was born in 4th Kenyon, a son of the late John Angus McDougald and his wife, Nancy Ann Chisholm of Lochiel. At one time he was em- ployed at the grist mill here and as a railroad construction foreman, but spent most of his life farming on the homestead. He was married three times — in 1906 to the former Sarah McDonald, in il920 to the former Florence Chisholm, and in 1942 to the former Stella Reeves, who survives, along with his three daughters: Mrs. W. J. Crichton (Anna), Miss Sarah McDougald, R.N., and Miss Grace McDougald, and a sister, Miss Katherine Mc- Dougald, all of Montreal. There are also three grandchildren — Mar- guerite, Nancy and John Crichton.

Floral tributes were received from: his wife, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Crich- ton, Misses Sarah, Grace and Kath- erine McDougald, Orphidas Reeves, Mr. and Mrs. Solyme Brunet and family, Dr. and Mrs. J. p. Gilhooly,

Mrs. E. Lortie Dies The sudden death of Mrs. Emerie

Lortie of Morrisburg, Sunday eve- ning, caused much sorrow to her many friends iç that district, where she was -highly esteemed and re- spected. Her health had not been good for some time, but she was about her home daily. She was re- turning with her husband and daughter-in-law from -a motor trip to Prescott when death came with- out warning.

Bom in Alexandria in 1903, she was a daughter of -the late Mr. and Mrs. Richard Ladouceur, her maiden name being Marie Yvonne Ladou- ceur. She was educated in Alex- andria schools and in 1926 was mar- ried here to Emerie Lortie, who sur- vives. They went to Morrisburg to live in 1936, where her husband is section foreman for the CNR. Other survivors are five sons — Roger Lortie, St. Catharines; Gerald and Claude Lortie, at present sailing on the lakes; Leo and Robert Lortie, at home, and one daughter, Mrs. Russell Sheldrick of St. Cath- arines; also three brothers — Her- moine Ladouceur, J. Ladouceur and Richard Ladouceur, all of Cornwall; and three sisters, Mrs. Florid Doyon, Cornwall; Mrs. Raoul Henault and Mrs. Adel-ard Clement, both of Montreal.

The funeral Mass was sung at St. Mary’s Church, Morrisburg, Wed- nesday morning, -by Rev. W. L. Terrien. Interment was in Sacred Heart cemetery here.

The Eastern Ontario Ministerial Association met on Monday, Sep- tember 20th, at the Abenaki Club in Hawkesbury, as the guests of Dr. B. T. Holden of L’Orignal. The meeting opened with worship led by the vice-president, Rev. C. R. Wood, who -then called for consideration of unfinished business. Only one outstanding item of business had been carried over, the matter of funerals on the Lord’s Day. The association heartily agreed with a resolution of the Vankleek Hill sec- tion of the general association, as follows:

The ministers of Vankleek Hill, meeting in Trinity United Church parsonage in June, gave careful con- sideration -to the subject of the sacredness of -the Lord’s Day and worship on that day in relation to Sunday funerals, and have prepared the following statement—

1. Sunday funerals interfere with the normal worship ser- vices on the Lord’s Day, both in the congregation involved

Had Threshers For 11 Days

These persistent rains are not only hard on the grain crops and the farmers’ stock of patience. They can add to the farm wife’s labors and detract from her food supplies.

That was the case with a Dunvegan area farm wife who had the threshing crew at her home for 11 days before the operation was completed Tues- day night. The mill had moved in a week ago last Friday, but so had the rains.

There was one consolation, though. The crop was ‘real good’.

Vankleek Hill Man Wins Decoration

Cpl. Roger Portelance, 25, of Vankleek Hill and Temiskaming, Que., has received the Belgian Croix de Guerre, second class, with palm, for service in Korea just before the signing of the truce agreement July 27th, 1953. Awards were made by the Belgian government to six Canadian servicemen in all,

Cpl. Portelance led a patrol from the lines of the 3rd Battalion, Royal 22nd Regiment, on the night of May 22nd, 1953. He found a 20-man enemy patrol and called down mor- tar and artillery fire. According to the citation, he held his ground, directing the fire on the enemy, and withdrew only after he was ordered back.

Good Progress On Sewer Job

Work is proceeding on the north- end sewer as fast as weather T#!! allow and it is expected two weeks more will see the contract com- pleted. Laying of the pipe is com- pleted on Bishop, Dominion, Elm and Maple streets and there remain only the Main street and McDougall

[avenue stretches, where digging has yet to be done.

A lot of filling remains,’ however, and the streets in the station area can probably be termed a mess. o

and in the surrounding pas- toral charges of the same and other communions by— (a) cancellation of regular

Sunday services; (b) drawing churbh members

away from regular ser- vices of worship that are conducted.

2. Sunday funerals compel a number of people to do avoid- able labor on the Lord’s Day in contravention of the Fourth Commandment.

3. Extra avoidable preparation for Sunday funerals comes at a time when a minister is crowded with -preparation for -the regular services of wor- ship.

We, therefore, the ministers of Vankleek Hill, humbly request the official governing body in each con- gregation to take such action as shall support the ministers in their efforts to arrange funerals only on week-days.

Exhibits were reportedly never better at any fair in Eastern On- tario, the horse and cattle classes being well filled. The domestic science classes in the show hall were outstanding, especially so the flower show.

The biggest midway seen at Wil- liamstown in years suffered from the rains but judging was on sche- dule.

Results will appear next week. o

Former Alexandrian Seriously Inj'ured In Tunnel Cave-In

Eastern Ontario Ministerial Association Against Sunday Funerals

Page 2 The Glengarry News, Alexandria, Ontario, Thursday, September 23rd, 1954

ED I T O R I A IT’S OUR OPINION kS

The Speed Limit Is Fast Enough We heard recently of a district farmer

who has finished completely with Alex- andria. He has wiped this town off his map, closed out accounts at the local banks, settled his bills and won’t be seen here again, ever — not if he can help it.

He was oile of the many caught by the police speed watch in the last few weeks.

As we heard it, he is one of those fellows who never drives over 40, even on the open road. And evidently he was below that mark, but slightly over the 30-mile speed limit when his car crossed the tape and the coppers copped him. He doesn’t see himself as a speeder and is boiling at' the ‘injustice’ of having to pay a fine. So he has said goodbye to our town and intends to do his business elsewhere.

We can understand his,anger. No one likes the feeling that he’s being pushed around, is being treated unjustly. And no one enjoys paying a fine, even when he knows it is deserved.

But having said that, we feel impelled to point out to this area motorist that he was breaking the speed limit when caught in the net. And he is only one of many who have had to pay for that infringement of the law.

Alexandria has a speeding problem. Too many motorists and truck drivers insist on travelling fast through narrow streets

that were not designed for today’s traffic. And the police have a problem in coping with speeders. It’s not easy to catch them at it and it is sometimes difficult, too, to prove a speeding charge in court.

That is why, as we understand it, the speed watch was put into play and there has been no secrecy about the fact a drive is being conducted against speeding on our streets. Signs at the entrance to town tell of the 30-mile speed limit and there is also warning that a speed watch is in use.

Undoubtedly there will be border-line cases where motorists who drive sensibly and carefully will be caught by the speed watch at a moment when they are but slightly over the speed limit. Such instances are regrettable.

But if the drive to impress the speed limit on drivers is to prove successful there can be no exceptions. All who are found exceeding the limit must pay and if that fact is understood area motorists will soon be impressed with the idea that it is wise to observe the speed limit in Alexandria. And our streets will be safer, not only for our citizens but for everyone else who frequents this town.

If you are caught by the speed watch, why not chalk it up to experience and re- solve next time to observe the 30-mile limit. You’ll get there just the same.

Industry’s Value To A Community To those of our citizens who appear

lukewarm to the thought of bringing new industries here, we might quote some figures prepared in the U.S. in an attempt to measure the increase in economic activity resulting from new industry.

.They show that the average increase for each 100 new manufacturing workers in a district is 296 people in 112 households and that the number of employed persons rises by 174. One hundred added workers also bring school enrolment up by 51, retail sales by $360,000 and personal income by $590,- 000. They call for five new retail establish- ments, 107 new passenger car registrations, and 38 trucks or busses. (Fierures were adjusted to 1950 price and use levels) :

It was quite fair to take manufacturing as the example. Basically, all wealth must come from production. A country has land, water

: and air, and from these and what they con- tain it starts to earn its living; it starts to fish, to plough and sow, to dig for its minerals. Thus, it acquires its raw materials and, having got them, it can begin to manufacture. And that is where it really starts to develop.

The point was well illustrated in the same survey by a breakdown of the item of increased employment. It showed that; the increase of 174 employed persons from the 100 new manu-

facturing employees was achieved despite a loss of 31 employees from agriculture, 2 from min- ing and 2 from personal service. Increases of

• 25 in construction, 13 in public utilities, 38 in wholesale and retail trade and 14 in pro- fessional and related services much more than made up the loss.

It can be seen from these figures why some towns are alive and booming while others, like Alexandria, though possessing all the facilities for progress, continue ta struggle along. Industry is the answer. A plant employing 100 workers is in reality providing the pay checks of 174 people, an impetus to every business and profession, and is benefitting every citizen.

With that in mind it is difficult to see why every businessman in town — if only out of self-interest — is not actively behind the Board of Trade in its attempts to attract- new industry. The next few years should be decisive ones in view of the nearby Long Sault power development.

The new county-wide industrial or- ganization should have wide backing, too, for anything that benefits one section of our county should have happy repercussions on all. In united action there is strength, and it is to be hoped the new county committee will have smooth sailing.

It’s Wonderful ! (The Christian Science Monitor)

Following close upon, the announcement by one major publisher of “crime and horror” comic books that it was dropping its lurid line, comes the news that 24 of the nation’s 27 comic-book publishers are setting up a self-policing organization. (The only large firm not in the new group doesn’t publish crime and horror material).

Self-policing by an industry is not new- Major league baseball as a consequence of the notorious “Black Sox” incident named Kenesaw Moun- tain Landis, a respected federal judge and an avid baseball fan, as a “czar’’ to formulate a code of ethics for the baseball world and to enforce it. When the movies came under heavy fire on grounds of taste and morals, the industry followed suit and made former Postmaster General Will H. Hays arbiter of its ethics.

The new Comics Magazine Association of America has named Charles F. Murphy as its code administrator, a man not nationally known as were Judge Landis and Will Hays. But neither do “comic” books hold quite the place in American life that baseball and motion pictures do. Mr. Murphy is a young New York City magistrate who has been an active campaigner against juvenile delinquency.

Self-policing, particularly by the movies, may not have been perfect ' in every respect. But as a remedy it is immeasurably better than letting the abuses run on and better than censorship, whether by government or pressure group. American parents, certainly, will wish Mr. Murphy and the new organization every success.

As for what brought all of this about: an aroused public opinion — it’s wonderful!

Public Relations Many business executives overlook

the homely roots of goodwill while coveting the fruits of wider esteem. Employees who are completely sold on their company will do better work and will unconsciously win goodwill for their employer by then- attitude of confidence and keenness. —Lachute (Que.) Watchman.

Seven Islands; Sept. 12, 1954. The Glengarry News. Dear Sirs:

I am sending you some samples of our iron ore from Knob Lake, hop- ing you will be interested in having this in your newspaper to the bene- fit of your Glengarry readers. I am also sending you a picture of my train leaving Silveryard on Septem- ber 1st with a train of 100 cars of ore and three diesel engines, with Engineer Ken Martin at the con- trols and Brakemen Roger Leblanc -and McGrath.

We are having the experience of our life out here in this wild coun- try of lakes, rivers, mountains and wild' animals. There are people here from all walks of life. We are having a very good time; working under these conditions, we have the very best of everything.

I was very sorry to hear of the death of one of my best friends, David Lalonde. You may give my best regards to Fred Deer and Dr. Villeneuve, and the Ostrom boys, Ernie and his brother, Clarence.

(Mr. Sauve lists the names of friends to whom he asks us to send a copy of the News.)

The boys out here are very inter- ested in The Glengarry News when I receive it from my sister, Mrs. W. Sabourin of Glen Robertson. I would be interested in having it sent to me direct to Seven Islands.

I remain Yours truly, FRANK SAUVE, Conductor Q.N.S. & L.

More About Meters Editor, Glengarry News. Dear Sir:

With reference to your editorial comment in last week’s issue on the installation of water meters, the estimated cost of which would be around $16,000.

Municipalities which have adopt- ed this system -take care of the capital outlay by means of a monthly rental charge to the con- sumer for the meters which, over a period of time, will pay for same. There ’should therefore be no im- pediment to a change in the present system on this score.

Yours truly, E. G. TUCKER.

PUC Chairman Replies To Letter

The Editor, Glengarry News, Dear Mr. Editor:

In last week’s issue of the News, we noticed a letter protesting our

(Continued on Page 3)

Medical Authorities Favor Fluoridation Of Water We don’t know whether our new water

filtration plant is equipped to handle the fluoridation of drinking water; nor do we have any knowledge of the extra costs which would be involved, though we understand the process is inexpensive. But we would like to know that our water commissioners have looked into the matter and have some definite reasons for not giving our chilàren the benefits of fluoridation at a time when a new water supply is introduced.

There has been so much written, both pro and con, on this method of preventing- tooth decay on a community basis that we are certain most of our readers are familiar with the subject. They have read of the experiments carried on' over the past decade at Brantford and other Canadian centres as well as in U.S. cities and towns which more and more are adopting the fluoridation pro- gram. And they might well have been con- fused as to its merits because of the wide- spread opposition engendered, the claims that there was a danger of poisoning from over-dosage of fluorine and other criticisms.

Health authorities have hesitated to give the program complete approval, pos- sibly because of these claims. But now comes word that leads to the belief all these fears have been set at rest. The arch-con- servative Canadian Medical Association has given its blessing following a thorough in- vestigation by a specially-named committee. And the Health League of Canada conies out flatly with the statement that those who are

leading the opposition to fluoridation of water are ‘generally ill-informed persons who know little about the scientific basis of the opinion of health authorities’.

Writes Dr. Gordon Bates, general di- rector of the Health League:

“A survey conducted by the Fluoridation Committee of the Health League of Canada was undertaken to discover the opinions of medical authorities in the Departments of Preventive Medicine in Universities of North America con- cerning the value of fluoridation of communal water supplies as a means of preventing caries in children’s teeth. The result has been an overwhelming vote of confidence in fluoridation.

“An examination of the facts concerning fluoridation of water provides definite evidence of the fact that fluorine added to water sup- plies in proper quantities will prevent caries without damaging the human organism.”

With such evidence from health auth- orities, there seems little room for doubt as to the potential benefit this community would enjoy from introduction of a fluorida- tion program. It would seem then that the only other hurdles to overcome are the ques- tions of cost and the adaptability of our new filtration plant.

We would like the assurance that our PUC is sufficiently interested as to at least make extensive inquiries along these lines. If we can cut dental bills in half through fluoridation of our water supply, perhaps those now decrying the recent increase in water rates will eventually come to believe that they are getting a bargain.

WITH OUR

RAMBLING REPORTER By ED.

Picture of the week—a motor- cycle cop weaving through Main street traffic, wlhistling while he works. Highways must be happy ways to him.

POOR MARILYN BELL • She swims Lake Ontario and a, pleased populace showers the 16^ year-old with money and other gifts of every description. There are various estimates of her take, al- ready put as high as $60,000.

At first thought one would say she is a very lucky girl. She has gone, overnight, from not quite rags to something short of riches. And! there are all kinds of prospects of her raking in plenty more dough. Even Hollywood is beckoning.

But, wait! Trouble looms. A cloud already appears on her hori- zon and from behind that cloud Ottawa’s tax gatherers can be dimly seen, licking their chops as they eye that mounting Marilyn Bell fund.

If we can classify her as a pro- fessional at 'the time she conquered the lake, they whisper, we’ll be able to grab as much as $30,000.. And what about the gift tax? Some- body has to pay it, and the recipient is usually stuck in such cases as Marilyn’s.

Poor kid. At 16 she is destined to take time from her school books to start, prematurely, that annual., losing battle with the insatiable Revenue-men. While her school- mates are about their ’teen-age fun, she will he sweating out the third- degree tactics of the Ottawa tax gatherers who accept the word only of tax consultants or chartered ac- countants. They dare not challenge those fellows who can do tricks with figures and who know all the loopholes in the tax laws.

The only out, Marilyn, is to hire a big-name consultant. He’ll save you so much money you’ll soon have to go out and conquer another lake so you can pay his fees.

There’s no easy money anymore, except what we collect for the Ottawa coffers.

Hear what happened to the girl who wore cotton stockings? Nothing.

BATTLE OF THE SEXES • A woman driver takes the Cana- dian male to task with the assertion that he is a crude and primitive beast when he spots a woman at the wheel. She tells of bullying tactics on the road or in city traffic, of men who deliberately set out to scare the damsel who drives or to make her look bad. She writes of males who appear to resent a woman driver .and take out their tantrums by jockeying her out of position, by outbluffing her at intersections, by holding her out of line or otherwise letting her know that she has no business behind the wheel.

In the U.S. or in other countries, she claims, women drivers are ac- cepted as naturally as women in offices. The American recognizes that the oar of today could be handled by an eight-year-old boy, and that women are every bit as capable drivers as are men. But, she writes, as soon as one crosses into Canada one is btought forcibly again to the realization that, with the Canadian male driver, women are still something that shouldn’t be seen behind the wheel and they set out to show her.

That is something of an indict- ment of we Canadian men and, truth to tell, we think there’s a lot of fact in what she writes. We’ve seen that look of scorn and derision on male motorists at the sight of a woman driver and more than once we’ve felt their resentment. We’ve never actually seen them go so far as to bully her or try and make her look bad, but we can believe it hap- pens. Men have had that experience, too. There are a lot of people driving cars who seem to revel in throwing its weight around without any thought of possible tragedy.

But why should the Canadian male feel like that about women drivers in this day and age? In our ramblings we’ve been taken for a ride by lots of women (in a nice way, of course) and we can’t recall one in whom we didn’t have perfect confidence. On the other hand there is more than one male driver we daren’t drive with again.

The only answer we can think up is that we Johnny Canucks are still backward enough to feel that wo- man’s place is in the home. There’s a lot of sense in that, too, but just try and keep them there.

DEATH ON THE HIGHWAY Struck Down

While Seeking Aid Walking along the highway to secure help for a friend whose car had stalled, a 34-year-old café manager and owner was hit by a speeding car. He died a few days later, leav- ing a widow to carry on the business. She was faced with many problems including unanticipated expenses and business indebtedness. The situation was grave, but her husband, with love and foresight, had thoughtfully provided for just such emergencies.

ASSURANCE ONLY 1 WEEK OLD Seven days before her husband met with his accident, the local represen- tative of the Sun Life of Canada had sold him Endowment Assurance Policies of $1,000 and $2,000 respec- tively. The actual first premiums for these policies were paid only about two hours before the tragedy oc- curred, but there was no thought of the swift impending catastrophe in the minds of any concerned with the transaction. A very short time after the assured had died, the full proceeds of the two policies were paid to the widow by the Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada.

Most contracts contain generous cash and loan privileges and offer a wide range of settlement options when the sum assured becomes payable.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

(Continued from Page 2) water rates, from E. G. Tucker, and we feel that some further explana- tion should be made.

In the first place, he states the rates are outrageous for a town of this size, and to some extent we agree with him. The rates ARE very high, but we are living in hopes that now, with an adequate supply of purified, filtered water, our town will grow. With an increased population and the bringing in of industries (which -the local Board of Trade and the Municipal Council are endeavoring to secure), our Pub- lic Utilities Commission would secure a larger revenue, without any material increase in expenses, and the water rates would then come down. So the only thing to do is to help boost our town and our efforts to increase -the population.

Mr. Tucker mentions the system we had adopted for assessing water rates as being wrong and obsolete, and suggests that meters be placed in every home. This may he so, but it would entail an expenditure of around $16,000, and we are not in a position to do this at the present time.

Regarding our present rates, we stated that a home having complete equipment would be charged about 12 cents per day, which would be $7.44 every two months. Our rate is $7.02

Mr. Tucker calls our attention to a $21,00.0 deficit in the water de- partment. This was created by too- low rates during the last 20 years, much lower than other munici- palities comparable to Alexandria.

He also asks why we do not use the surpluses from the electric light department to make up the loss of the water department. May we ex- plain that while the PUC of Alex- andria manages both water and light, the light department is sep- arate and is controlled by Ontario Hydro. Under the Power Act, we are not allowed to use funds from the sale of electric power for any purpose other than that of the hydro-electric department.

We are endeavoring to have, and there will be, a reduction in our electric light rates shortly. Just how much this reduction will be, and how soon it will be in effect, is entirely in the hands of Hydro for their approval. They set our rates and we must abide by them.

Regarding the “supposed” sup- erior water which Mr. Tucker men- tions, everyone must admit that we have far superior water from that produced -by the old system. We are producing a purified water, safe in every respect for your health. We are encountering a slightly musty taste which we hope to over- come in the very near future, so that you will have more palatable water, especially for use in coffee.

While we are on the subject of coffee, you mention the price being so high, and we agree with you. Remember some 20 years ago when you could buy a pound of the very best coffee for about 30 cents; today it costs more than $1.25 a pound. A quart of milk then cost a nickel; today it costs 17 cents. A loaf of bread that cost fiveicents now costs 19 cents. You could buy a pound

of -the best cut of beef for 25 cents which today costs over 75 cents a pound. A pair of the best shoes that cost $4.00 or $5.00 now costs from $12.00 to $20.00. Twenty years ago we could lay six-inch cast-iron water -pipe for around $1,50 a foot. Today it costs us $3.50 a foot. Laborers worked a 10-hour day for $2.50; today we pay them $6.40. for an eight-hour day. Federal and provincial direct and indirect taxa- tion, postage, telephone rates have more than doubled in the last 20 years. I could go on and cite a lot of other increased costs. So how could you expect us to erect a $170,- 000 filtration plant, producing chemically treated, purified water, and maintain the same water rates as heretofore.

Your writer mentions our new schools, sewers, roads surfacing, etc., of which we are very proud. These are for your enjoyment and plea- sure, along ^rith a lot of other facilities we have, such as police and fire protection, a beautiful park and beach, churches, a movie house and an arena. So let us co-operate and boost our town and help your elected officials -to make it a better town in which to live, educationally, morally -and socially.

Thank you, Mr. Editor, for this space in your very valuable paper. May I again mention that any in- formation which the citizenry re- quires as to how and why we are spending their money, or regarding any other aspect of municipal af- fairs, will be gladly supplied to them by the PUC or the Town Council or -the local Board of Trade. We are always willing and ready to serve you in this respect.

Alexandria Public Utilities Commission, GEORGE SIMON, Chairman.

P.S.—Regarding Mr. Tucker’s re- marks in which he states his taxes increased about 50%, I may state, in the past two years the present Town Council reduced the mill rate for General Town Purposes in 1952 by three mills, and a further 1!4

mills in 1953. But this was pretty much offset by the increase in Schools and County Rates, over which we have no control—G.S.

Re : Article of Life and Family

The Editor, Sir:

I would be much obliged if you publish in-extenso the text of those chapters about children which were cut off from my article in this week’s News. I am told that the reason for said amputation, is lack of available space.

Children you will agree are a very important part of the normal family, and my article as published

is almost meaningless and the" title misleading.

Thanking for anticipated favor. Sincerely yours,

O. R. DETRAIT.

Herewith the “Amputation” Now, if women have been slaves,

what of little children, children of the alleys, of the slums, children who turn pale when they hear their father’s footsteps, children of pov- erty, children of crime, of brutality, my heart goes to you wherever you are. Children have the same right as you and I, and ought to be treat- ed as though they were human beings, and should be reared by love and kindness and not by brutality.

When your little child tells a lie, don’t rush at him -as if the world were about to go into bankruptcy, be honest with him. A tyrant will have liars for children. A lie is bom of tyranny upon one hand and weakness upon the other, and when you rush at a poor little boy as if you were going to kill him, of course he will tell a lie. But be honest with him, tell him you have told hundreds of them yourself. Tell him it is not the best ways. You have tried it.

When a child commits a wrong, take him in your arms, let it feel your heart beat against its heart, let the child know that you sincerely and truly love him. That is the Christian way to teach little children.

O. R. DETRAIT. o

How Banking keeps pace*^

New ideas in bank premises give you speedier, more convenient, more informal banking service.

Modern machines help bank staffs keep up with greater use of services by more and more customers.

The chartered banks have opened many branches in 'ecent years to meet the needs of growing Canada.

Tjxlay Canadians have 9,200,000 deposit

accounts in the chartered banks—3,800,000

opened in the past ten years. Within the

same period, branches have increased to

4,000 ; bank staffs have almost doubled to more

than 50,000. Banking has grown in size and

scope, continually adapting its services and

improving its methods of operation, keeping

pace with the greatly-increased banking _ .

requirements of the Canadian people.

Popular Midget Team Match Returns To Friday Night Card

An estimated 600 fans — the largest wrestling crowd seen yet at the Gardens — so enjoyed the mid- gets’ team match last week that by popular demand the foursome is being brought back tomorrow night.

The little giants were in fine fettle and they staged a match that the tans really went for. Mighty Schultz and Pancho the Bull proved too much for Mickey Langlois and Prince Nicol, after 38 minutes of gymnastics, but the losers had their big moments, too. Tomorrow night’s

return match should be interesting to say the least.

There was also a rousing climax to the main bout as half a hundred fans chased Vachon to his dressing room after particularly rough tac- tics had brought him a two-out-of- three decision over popular Ray Lortie. Lortie was momentarily knocked out by the wood chopping tactics Vachon was addicted to and the fans didn’t like him at all. We hear he won’t be back.

Lortie will meet Jerry Dugas in

Maxville Curlers Plan For Ice Nov. 1st

Members of Maxville Curling Club are planning for a November list opening of their second season with artificial ice. Plans are going ahead, too, on organization of the big opening bonspiel sometime in late November.

The inside of the roof is now re- ceiving a spray of white, which should add to the attractiveness of the rink. Representatives of the ice plant will be in Maxville later this month to fix pipes under No. 1 ice sheet which gave trouble last year.

Tickets are now going on sale on a draw for a $10 doll all dressed up in 50 one-dollar bills.

St. Laurent Blasts Duplessis’ Cry Of Autonomy For Quebec Province

QUEBEC. — Prime Minister St. Laurent bas told bis native Erencb Canada he stands by the taxation agreements that have spread wealth across a united Canada, and if Quebec thinks this is bad it can vote against his party.

Mr. St. Laurent, speaking without a text for two hours in French to 300 Liberal party organizers in the new Quebec Reform Club, rapped Premier Duplessis’ Union Nationale government calling its autonomy platform “a screen” and in effect said Canada is more important than one province.

Political experts in the Liberal party described the speech as one of the most daring in Canada’s political history in a country where it is a political axiom that the party

ruling Quebec rules the House of Commons.

Apart from aiming a body blow at Premier Duplessis’ powerful Union Nationale party, Mr. St. Laurent hit Quebec nationalists who want to be separated “from these cursed Protestants”.

He told Quebec — the only prov- ince to reject taxation agreements, federal aid to education, and shar- ing in the Trans-Canada highway project — that:

1. The federal government will never recognize that a single prov- ince is more important than the entire country.

2. Although it was said in Quebec they would lead to a “frightful dis- aster”, federal - provincial taxation agreements are here to stay unless a

Your stake in the search for Better Health

Everyone has a vital interest in science’s efforts to help us live longer. But life insurance policyholders have a special stake in this work.

You see, certain important medical research projects are supported wholly or in part by funds from all the life in- surance companies in Canada and their millions of policy- holders. As a result, skilled scientists in many Canadian medical research centres can carry on their task of attack- ing some of mankind’s deadli- est enemies. Their names: cancer, heart ailments and virus diseases.

Other vital studies are sup- ported in a similar way. These focus on obesity, blood clot- ting, nutritional and intestinal

disorders, hardening of the arteries and glandular diseas- es, to mention but a few.

Will all these efforts help you and your family to live longer, healthier lives?

Yes! Thanks chiefly to the advance of modern medicine, babies born today can expect to live about 20 years longer than those of 50 years ago. Many dread diseases have been banished or controlled. Ahead lies further progress that will surely benefit you and yours.

And, if you are a life insur- ance policyholder, you also have the satisfaction of know- ing that you have participated in this program designed :o bring the blessings of good health to all I ^

better system is found to spread the wealth across the nation.

3. Although the federal govern- ment admits the legality of the Quebec inoome tax, it has no inten- tion of making it deductible in its entirety from federal income tax.

4. If the English-speaking Cana- dians regard their government as their national government, that should also be the view of all other Canadians.

5. The Liberal party is going to tell Quebec frankly it favors spread- ing the wealth across the nation by means of subsidies. If Quebec finds that “a bad policy, it can vote against us”. The policy is not di- rected against any group, he said. The federal government only be- lieves it is the best policy for the majority of Canadians. o

IF you feel

ALL IN These days most people work under pressure, worry more, sleep less. This strain on body and brain makes physical fitness, easier to lose—harder to regain. Today’s tense living, lowered resistance, overwork, worry—any of these may affect normal kidney action. When kidneys get out of order, excess acids and wastes remain in the system. Then backache, disturbed rest, that “tired-out” heavy- headed feeling often follow. That’s the time to take Dodd’s Kidney Pills. Dodd’s stimulate the kidneys to normal action. Then you feel better—sleep better—work better. Ask for Dodd’s Kidney Pills at any drug counter. 53

Two recent evening services brought inspiration to large congre- gations here. On September 12th, Rev. D. C. Munro of Maxville, con- ducted the service, and was assisted by the choir of his Maxville church, under the direction of Mr. Charles Munro. Mr. Munro, a newcomer to this district, made many new friends on his visit, and the choir, of about 18 musicians, left an impression that will be long remembered through its heartening melody and messages in song. The choir and visiting min- ister were guests at the home of Miss Ostrom, after the service.

The other evening service, on the 19th, was under the auspices of the Masonic order, the local lodge spon- soring it. Members of the order from many places, many accom- panied by their families, engaged in the service, which was conducted by the minister, Rev. C. H. Dawes, chaplain of the lodge, assisted by D. A. Gray, master. A Masonic choir from Wales lodge, directed by Law- rence Daye, sang an appropriate anthem, and led the praise, with David Dawes, junior organist, at the console. Among distinguished brethren present were Ian Mac- Leod and Harold Stimson, repre- sentatives of Grand Lodge, who di- rected the procession to and from the lodge.

Knox Presbyterian Church on Sunday held anniversary services. Rev. H. G. Funston, B.A., of Vank- leek Hill, guest speaker, delivered eloquent sermons. At the morn- ing service he chose for his subject “The Christian Outlook’’. Text, Isaiah 43, 10th verse, “Ye are my witness saith the Lord, and My servant whom I have chosen that ye may know and believe me and understand that I am he; before me there was no God formed nor shall be after me”. It was pointed out that it was not the length of life of a congregation but rather the effectiveness of its witness to God that counts in a Christian life. God’s purpose in calling his servants is to make them witnesses to him in the world.

Christians while living in the world are to be separate from the evils in the world and not be led by those who through carelessness or ignorance are disobedient to the will of God.

The evening subject, taken from Romans 12, 1 and 2 verses, “I be- seech you therefore, brethren by the mercies of God that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice holy, accept- able unto God, which is your rea- sonable service. And he not con- formed to this world, hut be ye transformed by the renewing of four mind that ye may prove what is good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

The claim of God on the life of his people; His power through the spirit working in the hearts of his people, giving them new lives”, was set forth in the evening service.

Man's chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever, such is the goal of the Christian life, where there Is a readiness to offer not the left-overs, but the whole of the life in God’s service as a living sacrifice.

In the morning the choir rendered “I Know Whom I Have Believed”, by A. W. Whittle, with Mrs. Kenzie McCuaig at the organ. In the eve- ning, a duet entitled “Evening Prayer”, by Mrs. S. McKay and Mr. Charles E. Blair, and an anthem, “Thy Word Is Like a Garden, Lord”, by Edwin Hodden, with Miss Norma McDermid at the organ.

Very large attendance at both services.

The Requiem Mass for Mrs. Ar- cadius Massie, who died at her home here September 14th, was celebrated in Sacred -Heart Church by her pastor, Rev. Emilien Houde, assisted by Rev. Leo MacDonell and Rev. Hollis LaPierre.

Chief mourners were her husband, two sons and four daughters — George and Gerard, Mrs. Conrad Levert, Mrs. Laurenzo Levert, Mrs. Gerard Brunet and Mrs. Bruno Levert.

.Mrs. Massie’s death, at the age of 63, followed a lengthy illness. She passed away fortified by the last rites of the Roman Catholic Church and surrounded by all the members of her family. She was the former Ada Clement of St. Eugene and 42 years ago married Arcadius Massie at Glen Robertson. They took up residence on the homestead, Mc- Cormick Road, and farmed until two years ago when they moved into Alexandria, leaving the farm to their two sons.

Her passing will be regretted by all who knew her. Possessed of a cheerful disposition, she was a de- voted wife and loving mother, and she had won the esteem of a large number of friends.
