THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1958 To The Editor — Dear Editor: It is high time we checking up on the speed of these auto drivers in Olds. It much use asking the police to step in after some one is killed. These punks particularly shoud he fined and better sent to jail be- fore a killing takes place. had some Something New! Stereo — Orthophonic High Fidelity, by RCA Victor An amazing new pick- “up fitted with a diamond stylus allows two recordings in one groove. This new unit is on display on our floor. Ask for an § piyn Counci! evening demonstration. A resident. eae ener i Chee ob NEW 1959 RCA VICTOR TELEVISION ear Me Ee The Kiwanis Club of Olds was instrumental in arranging for the purchase of the ten acre yark and playground site which is discussed in your editorial column appearing in the September 25th issue of the Olds Gazette. Your editorial infers that the whole ten acre site will be lost if a school is erected on that location. This is not correct. \ The correct fact is that a mini- mum of three acres will be retained for community park and recreation purposes. The Olds and District Memorial Swimming Pool Assoc- iation has aleady been assured of a site for he purposed swimming _ pool in this three acres. ' H. F. Galvon | President Kiwanis Club of Olds ete i Editor’s note — Our contention was and still is that the whole | ten acres should be retainetd as ‘a park. The present kiddies play- |. ground is 1.3 acres and noone can dispute the fact that it is much {too small to accommodiate’ other | than very small children. A three yacre site less a swimming pool area would be in exactly the same cat- egory. Olds would still have no park. 11 PELSLY NAM | New Features Better Chassis 26 and 27 Tube Functions Stereophonic Speaker units (on DeLuxe Models) New Cabinet designs 17” and 21” MODELS ON THE FLOOR @ We have several 1958 Models at Reduced Prices Keep Your TV in Top Condition with Authorized TV Service Bird Electronics Ltd.

The Hon. Lester B. Peason, Leader of the Opposition in the House of Com- mons, on his tour of Central Al- bearta will spend half an hour at 2 ware on arrival the students will be waiting out- side to give him a welcome. They will assemblein-the Auditorium where formal introductions to the teachimg staff, the Local School Board and the Divisional School Board will be made.

Each child will be issued with a Library Card, good until October 31st. mr ke an excursion to tue ‘Library where every child will ‘ one se a book. The books will then be exchanged within the grade!

From the Town Hall comes the ' news released by Harry Morris, Town Clerk, that on Wednesday, September "24th, Pat McCaffery was nominated and elected Town CounciHor. Other Councillors are Bill Niddrie and Walter Pollock. The Hospital Board representative re-elected by acclamation is Bob Teeling. : It is not unusual these days, when rushing to town for machin- ery repairs, and having taken a short cut, to come face to face with a_ bold notice which says simply ROAD CLOSED the not- ice had ‘been t_at_either_end of the road instead of two thirds or a third of the way along the road, one would have been very appreciative. Unfortunately, _ it seems that whoever is responsible for putting up such notices hasn’t too much idea of the most conveni- ent place to put them. Invariably, ‘ one comes across obstructions that prove to be bull-dozers or mech- anical diggers of sorts and maybe a brand new culvert waiting to be buried in the large trench which extends right across the road. Lastly. there it is, the notice that tells one what by this time one already knows. ROAD CLOSED! Many a farmer must have said many ‘things under his breath when encountering such a frus- trating experience. Mrs. F. Scott who recently cele- brated her diamond wedding an- niversary, has returned home af- ter a days in hospital. Mes. W. Pollock is on the sick 5 list in the Innisfail Hospital.
