Since the adoption of Government sale the value of brewery and dis- tillery stock has .adva`nced by leaps and bounds. Why talk about hard times when the people can afford not only $56,- 000,000 for liquor, but the added cost of combating the steadily mounting crime wave; of increased jail accommodation, of the increas- ing number of abandoned illegiti- mate children, of the destruction of property and most appalling of all, the wanton cutting off of human life at the•hands of drunken drivers. We must also count the loss of useful business of the money spent in liq- uor, the unemployment through the lessened demand for clothing, boots and home comforts that the money would purchase. The warfare against the terrible foe, strong drink, is be- ing carried on in all countries and is worthy the greatest sacrifices Of time and talent, money and effort. The meeting on Tuesday was held in Mrs. Pedlar's home. There were sixteen ladies present and a splen- did service was held. 'Mrs. Amy had charge, several hymns were sung and prayers were offered. A respon- sive reading was led by Mrs. Skin- ner. and 'Mrs. Christie gave a read- ing "Influence of a Mother's Pray- er." A memorial service was very ably'•eonducted by Miss, Murray in honor of our members who have passed on before and in honor of those Who have been in high office in our W. C. T. U., Mrs. May R. Thornley, Mrs. Letitia Yeomans and Mrs. Gordon Wright and this, the 17th of February, being also the thirty-third anniversaryof the death of Miss Francis Willard.

Adnniasion t Gents 5Oc: tax included Ladies Please Provide Lunch 1 cOMMVNICATIQN orroR In an ,article which appeared in the Times -Advocate last week Coun- ty Clerk G. W.. -Holman suggests .a way to help the people of Huron County in, the situation caused by hard tinges and unemployment. while the objective is eoniu.endable- we believe that there is room. to question the means 'ray which Mr. Holman would relieve the situation. In the first place the unemploy- ment in the rural sections is not so ,narked in the summer months as it is in the winter, Last summer in this community there, were fete ,men leaking for work. Just what the conning summer will demand is dif- ficult to .predict. Mr. Holman suggests that the work of laying the five ,piles of pavement south of Exeter complet- ing the link in the Highway from London to Godericlt .be delayed for two years :and that toe county spend the • one mill rate estimated would be required to pay the county's share on certain county roads and that ordinary work mien with pick, shov- el and wheelbarrow be employed. Huron county has already. invested considerable money In roadbuilding machinery which has proved. 4 con- siderable factor In- reducing the heavy .cost of roadbuilding, The pick,, shovel and wheelbarrow when it conies. to roadbuilding is out .of date and I would imagine is too ex - Pensive to •c u ider. Imagine put- ting a gang of men with wheelbar- rows at the task of cutting down the Saltford ' hill for example. It would be an endless task and the cost would be tremendous. Why go back to the methods of a half cen- tury ago? In Mr. Holman's article he outlines a, program of between 100 and 150 miles of road to be un- taken in two Years. This would re- quire a small army of men. aird we wonder how far the one mill would go in meeting the expense. On the other hand Practically all of the roads designated by Mr. Hei- man leads to the Blue Water High- way and the Blue Water Highway leads to Goderich. For the past five or sister years while the Provincial Highway has been under construction Exeter has suffered more or loss through the disorganized traffic and has been: locking forward to the time that the Highway might be completed 'and the traffic restored to normalcy. This cannot come too quiokly as far as this community is concerned. This southern end of the County has waited patiently long.enough and its interests should not be fur- ther sacrificed. the3ame At time ewe would trot distinctly oppose the •road improve- ment program outlined by the Coun- ty Clerk if the County Council should deem it wise to proceed with it. - Let additional money be -raised and devoted to this purpose. The in- dividual taxpayer would, we believe, not object to.the difference in the amount of his taxes if devoted' to this worthy cause. But first let the reeves oaf the various municipalities establish offices where men who wish to be so employed next sum mer can register their desire tor such work. Let the amount to• be paid 'per day be stated. However, in planning this program we must . gu;ard; against any obstacle being placed in the way of the -farmer ob- taining labor at wages, that he can afford to pay. We are an agricul- tural community and the interests Of the farmer must above all things be •considered. His interests are •our interests. His prosperity or lack of it means our prosperity or lack of it.- So the County must not put on a program -of public works which would make his path in 19.31 more difficult. Hence the wages offered by the County should not exceed the wage of the average ,farm laborer (board and lodging taken into con- sideration), else the farmer -who needs hired help would . be more 'h:andicapped than ever. After the registration of the mendesiring, em- ployment there would come up the Problem of the transportation ot. these men daily to the scene ,ot their labors, or else- the providing of meals and lodging by the roadside, :Surely a' big problem to be worked out! But first of all let us .have u registration, If a sufficient number .or men register their willingness for the work - we will • be behind the County Council in any project -that they de^ide upon.
