THE EXETER TIMES -ADVOCATE
And yuh know, rub caul Hardly
male any Mersey being crooked
these days there is tOQ much
petition.
The finer the weather on. Sunday,
the greater the crop of auto 1`atalitY
reports in Monday's papers,
**a 'pan **a *I4
Autosists are°neglectful of two or
three things required by the Act,
One is that changes ofaddress must
besunt to. Department of Highways
and tl'iat owners of autos in ,CCi-
denta must give their names and ad-
dresses to the other pai'tY in the ac-
cident
as well as to officers when
requested. Violators in both cases
are subject to penalties.

And now health specialists come
out and encourage ladies to wear
even less clothes than the present
styles call for. If there is further
curtailment what is left won't be
worth making, outside the shoes and
stockings, but it probably would en-
courage industry, along the line' of
-manufacturing powders, and in-
crease the barber's trade.
MOTIIERS' ALLOWANCE
Under the provision of the On-
tario Mothers' Allowances .Act, 44,-
184 mothers throughout the Pro-
vince, with 12,786 `dependent child-
ren in their care, received during
July, 1925, the sum of $149,898.
The number of children 'in each.
home ranges from two to eleven. Of
the beneficiaries, 3,393 are widows,
522 are wives of incapacitated hus-
bands; 159 are deserted wives for a
period of five years and upward, 110
are foster -mothers to orphans.
BIRTH CERTIFICATES .
At the instance of Dr. Forbes
Godfrey, Minister of Health, a new
ssaale of fees for the issuance of
bil•th certificates has been author-
ized by the Provincial Government.
In cases' where women apply for
birth certificates of their children,
as required under the Mothers' al-
lowance Act, and also where the ap-
plications are soldiers or soldiers'
dependents seeking to prove pension
,claims, the certificates will be issu-
ed free. In other cases there is an
increase in the 'fee. The fee for
each certificate where the applicant
knows within three. years of the
date of his birth will be $1 instead
of 75 cents. Where searches of
records over a period osf three years
is necessitated, however, the charge
will be 50 cents for every additional
three years.

�entgllLifePolicy?
A Policy on your life will do much towards carrying
out your intentions—whether you live or die.
Nothing can absolutely • replace your life—but a
policy will in some measure offset the financial lass
,which will come to those who now look to you for'
luPPIXn ;t
It may pay off the mortgage, supply food and cloth=
in for your family, keep the children at school.
It may be all that is left of your life work—to keep
(you in comfort ire your old age.
But—your Policy must bti large enough.
TheTwenty Payment Life
policy is selected by many for the following reasons:
Premiums cease in twenty years—therefore yoour,
policy will be fully paid for before you reach later' life
--when your earning power will have declined.
Cash values increase year by year, and after.. the-
rMMrd annual premium the policy cannot lapse as Iorg,
sufficient value exists.
Dividends are paid during the twenty years and a
rlong as the policy remains in force thereafter.
After two years the policy is indisputable, and
y'on may reside or travel in any part of the world,.
Oangage in any occupation (except aviation)
without affecting your insurance.
A twenty pay life policy will provide an amount in
Fitrerlt of death equal to twenty. or thirty times the annual
tum, and produce an estate of $2,000, $5,000,.
0,040, or more as arranged.
An Easy Savings Plan
These active progressive years of life in whichyou
are earning the most money are the years in which
premiumscan be most easily met.
Twenty years is a convenient period and premiums
spread over that length of time are moderate and easy to I
handle.
If You Are: ; Insurable
A do not delay decision on this important matter -delays

as ever. "

A. court ruling that will be ap-
proved by many juveniles is report-
ed in Pennsylvania. A boy was
charged with stealing apples. The
judge instructed the jury that only
after apples have been picked by the
owner off the trees can they be stol-
en. Unpicked apples, the court
held, are regarded as, attached to
the land, and; therefore, "are not
personal property.
For the three full months of
September, October and ,November,
the duty of 25 per cent on grade
sheep imparted into Canada from the
United States for breeding purposes
will be removed. The reason for
this step Is the fact that for the past
two or three years there has been a
gradual decline in the sheep -breed-
ing industry in the Dominion. It is.
felt that with the/ removal of the
duty encouragement will • be given
to Canadian sheep •Breeders to hue

GRADING CREAM '
Grading cream and paying for it
on a graded basis will be introduc-
ed in the creameries' of this Province
early in 1926. It is therefore im-
portant that cream producers be-
come familiar with the - standards
for' the' different grades and plan
how they can produce cream that
will bring the highest price. Grad-.
ing the cream and paying for it on
a graded basis provides at once
three markets for cream; one for
special grade, one for lst grade and
gone for 2nd grade cream to suit any
one of these' markets. If he pro-
duces special grade cream, he will
be rewarded by ,receiving the high-
est possible price. If. he produces
lst gradehe will receive a slightly
lower price. If 2nd 'grade cream,
a still lower price. Off grade
cream is of little value and should
be returned.` The care given the
cream will decide which market it
will sell in. Therefore the cream
Producer who makes proper arrange-
ments for taking care of his cream
will be rewarded by receiving a bet-
ter price than the man who will not
go to 'any expense in taking care of
his cream.
Sale of fully 100 patent medi-
cines has been placed under the ban.
in Ontario by the provincial board
of license commissioners acting in
conjunction with federal authorities.
The medicines and remedies affect-
ed are -those containing a high per-
centage of alcohol and not suffi-
ciently medicated to prevent their
use as beverages. Their sale by
druggists and other vendors has
been declared illegal under the Pro-
prietary# and Patent Medicine Act.
PUT MILLIOfiS IN POCKETS
OF FARMERS
The Gbderich Star quotes from a
former Exeter Old Boy, says: "Hdn.
Frank -W. K. Tom, of Toledo, Ohio.,
is in town with hiswife and family
of three daughters and a son, oc-
cupying Eagle's Nest cottage. Mr.
Tom is a member of the House of
Representatives for Lucas County,
Ohio, and a member of the Deep
Waterways Committee of the house
and is much interested in the pro-
ject, which, he says, is bound to
come and is destined to do more
for the agricultural interests, both
of Canada and 'the United States
than any tariff adjustments could
possibly do. The saving by water
shipment . over rail would put mil-
lions in the pockets of the farmers,
for the simple reason that the,Liver-
pool market fixes the price of wheat
and any reduction in the cost of
transportation to that market means
just that'much more in, the ,pockets
of the agriculturists. And the Liv-
erpool market not only sets the price
for export hut for domestic ti:on-
sumption also,so that the increased.
price the farmer would get would
apply to all his wheat.
The Chicago drainage canal water
steal has a bearing on the deep wat-
erways development for if the Great
Lakes are to be made accessible to
Ocean : vessels it becomes more im-
portant than ever that the levels in
the harbors on the lakes"'should not
be allowed to recede. The Chicaga
drainage canal takes all the water
that flows into Lake. Michigan and.
some of 'what flows into .• Lake Hur-
on, so that the present diversion is
a very serious menace •and.:- Must be
checked. An organization of fifteen
states has been formed to fight Chi-
cago, on this diversion and Ur. Tom
is confident Chicago will be forced, �
in time, to abandon this method of
sewage and install proper'; disposal
