At a stop an elderly lady ambled slowly from the curb to the oar. “Please hurry, madam,” urged the operator, “We’ve .got to get along.” “Oh, you men!” signed the old lady, as she put her ticket in the box, “you’re all the same.

The County was well represented^ delegates* coming fyom Grand Bend, Exeter, Zurich, Hensall, Varna, Brucefield, Bayfield, Goderich, Ben- miiier, Dungannou, Belgrave, Ford- wich, Brussels, Walton, Seaforth, Holmesville, Londesboro, Auburn, Clinton and the surrounding trick The meeting opened with a. worship period conducted, by ■VL A, Beecroft, Wingham, dis- brief Rev, ..................... ... .„T„ r with Mrs. M’prgan J, Agnew nt the organ. In his report, the .president R. H. Lloyd, Wingham, stated that it wns almost 2 yeax*s since a convention had been held. He said that partly this had been due to War conditions but also they wanted to have some thing definite about the C.TA. to bring before the people. He felt that the people of Huron ought to con­ sider themselves very fortunate to be under the C.T.A, He thought that some time 'during the after­ noon the propei’ enforcement of the C,T.A. ought to (be considered. A. T. Cooper, Clinton, the secre­ tary, in his report stated that at the last convention it had been de­ cided to do some constructive work in the Sunday Schools He said that a meeting had been called in God­ erich for this puppose and that a three-year programme had been drafted. They were trying to have a system whereby the teachers would be total abstainers and that temperance would be taught each lesson and that a certain Sunday Should be set aside each month as Temp erance Bunday. He. referred to the deputation which had waited upon Attorney- General ILeslie Blackwell. He said that the 'CTA is vital and that it was the best available tempernace law for this province. The Provin­ cial 'Police, he said, are behind the Act and that it was their duty to co-operate with the people. Frank Howson, Wingham, spoke briefly and. said that $500 would foe the objective to carry on the work efficiently. The county was going to be divided into five .zones for this purpose. How Communities Affected (Several people spoke of howjtheir communities had been affected since the CTA came back into force on April 1 off this year. Norval Anderson, Goderich, said they had the best tourist trade of their his­ tory this year in the County Town apd without beverage rooms. Dr. Burrows, Seaforth, stated that the CTA had loopholes which he thought ought to be closed. He said that he knew that Lhe express office in his own was handling more liquor than ever before in its tory, Frank Howson, said that, in opinion, Wipgham was one of the best towns, as far as drinking was concerned, ip this district, He said that it was very seldom that a drunk map .was seen, though there was some drinking around dance halls,. A. T. Cuoper satd that he believed that Clinton was about as clean as was ipossibble, although he (knew that there was considerable private drinking going on, Rev. <J. i.C, Au- derson stated that he had occasion on several evenings to be down ■town late at night and he had Yel to see a drunk man in the town, Rev. R. A. Brook, Hensall, said that as far as he could ascertain there had been no difference in the amount of business done in thi^ vil­ lage since the beverage rooms went out. He was very strong in his opinion that there would have to be a change, but the question was and is “how,” Rev. W. T. Cleave, Grand Bend, stated that there did not seem to be as much drinking but that it was cerainly much more open. He men­ tioned a case where people went for a Sunday dinner at a hotel in his village and there were people there having beer with their meal. “The Banner County" Royal M'oulton, district organizer Ontario Federation, said that he thought Huron County was the ban­ ner county as far as temperance was concerned, and were certainly lead­ ing the way. He thought that it would be the ideal condition if the youth of the county could be worked into this great movement and in fact if this were not done he was afraid that the cause eventually would die out. He pointed out over 375 millions of dollars spent in alcoholic beverages year. Dr. DeMille Speaks Dr. C. W. DeMille, Toronto, his- his that was last Dr. C. W. DeMille, Toronto, sec­ retary, Ontario Temperance Federa­ tion, in reply to some of the ques­ tions already brought out, stated that it was not legal to consume liquor in public places in CTA ter­ ritory. He said we must keep facts in front of the officials even if it means doing so every week, One government official fed been known tq state that it the hope and expectation that once the tern” peranee forces registered their Qpppgitiop, they would fold up, but he said that is just what the# lUUM not dQ- He said that formerly there was only one woman in Mh who. would take a driflh?' but that now there was one in every five. He also stated that 30 per cent of the drinkers developed as1 alcoholics between the ages of O and <Dr, DeMiMlIe stated that every court in the country was against the liquor traffic but unfortunately it was the same traffic that had the financial strength. He told of the head of the largest brewink indus­ try In Canada being a total abstain­ er. He stressed the need of a more intensive educational program and especially the avoiding of fanatic­ ism. He urged every one tp write to their member off parliament .and. also the premier of the province and tell them how they feel with regard to the issue. Personal let­ ters carry more weight than the individual realizes, the speaker .de­ clared, Dr, DeMiUe went on to say that he thought every interested temperance worker ought to go to his party meetings at election time and state hi® views concerning the issue.
