THUItSDKY, 'SEPTEMBER 5th, 1935 TRAINING FOR.BOTH The Galt Reporter deplores the scarcity of domestic servants and endorses the movement to establish a training school for household assistants: It is easy to understand • why intelligent, energetic girls dislike -Working as servants in some homes. In all too many families it is a case of "only the maid" and she is shoved into a back, room, with little or no furniture, less heat, and"'-ei-Pe---ctiect fo-- give a 24 hour. service for short pay, as icing as she remains on the job. In the meantime, she gets her meals. True, Many girls are worse. than useless, but on the tTkted, like human beings and paid adequate wages. Those are the homes that are rarely .without competent, content- ed domestics. They give the girls a regular afternoon and evening off, the same as the girls. in business, and when they get a home like that, -those domestics are in- finitely better off than the average girl clerk or office assistant, who must necessarily spend more on clothes, and frequently pay bo-ard in addition. Incompetence in any line is disastrous to success and this applies to domestic servants as in any other line of business. But should a school for domestic servants be established there might also he another to train house- holders how to treat good domestics when thy get them. • WORTH KNOWING A lady from a -nearby town was, on Friday, calling at the business places in Goderich, sellingsomething for a small sum by which you might get a good, big fat priZe. Though_the object was a worthy one, and she was a good saleswoman, she hadn't sold many tickets or draws when she called on The Star. We didn't buy one because we have bought draws for years and only won on -one occasion, when we got $5. out of a hat on a horse race. That was long before we were grown alp, so it wasn't yesterday, or last /ear by any means. Had we won every car for which we bought tickets, we would ',Ave' at letter -one for every week in --the year, but as we - didn't -win -anyrwe have quit -buying that class of -securi- ties. But the _lady was an,affable soul, the kind one likes to meet, whether busy or not, and her thanks seemed just *is -genuine as though we ,had spent the small sum she asked. Before she _left she said she was collecting' stamps, so if any of our readers have any stamps they wouldaike to exchange, if theywill leave them at The Star, they will be called 'for, or better still we would give them the lady's address. She is woith knowing. . IS DEPARTMENT UNDERSTAFFED?

And who can do it? • Ontario doctors are considerably disturbed about the new Provincial railing. which became effective on Mon- day. For six months prior te September 1st the Ontario Government had been paying the medical "relief bills from a pooled fund, towards which the municipalities had paid twenty five cents per month for each persist) on relief. From and after September ist, the munici- palities are expected to finance their own medical relief accounts. Happily this will not disturb the local doctors to any appreciable, extent,- as- the -relief --question -iar this - district is of very minor proportions to what it is in the majority of localities. • Mr. David Williams, editor of.

Ye gods and little fishes, it makeS bite wonder haw industry prevails at all—outside of the east Simcoe town;• -- Provincial and Township regulations require the re- moval of noxious weeds from roads, streets and vacant properties. In these days of financial blizzards, it key be difficult for some property owners to comply with the laws, but all who can possibly do so, should have the weeds cut down now,though this date may be too late to destroy next iear's crop. Every farmer and gardener can always rely upon an over abundance of weeds; but where vacant lots are not given attention, the neirObors suffer from the weeds in neglected lots. Italy's war -aspirations must have been rudely jolted last Friday, when the announcement was made -that Eth- iopia had transferred -1500;000 square miles of territory to Anglo-American- interests. Mussolini, however, cone tinued his prepaintione for war and called more men to the Itallah colors. The 'dear was later cancelled : - The opinion is 'expressed in many quarters ,that none of the newly elected members in Alberta have had any legislative experience. Is that really not an .advantage?

(The Carlton Place Canadian) At the beginning 'of -this century an automobile with e a speed limit of 25 miles per hour was a world's wonder. Today many standard tars can "hit" 90 miles- per hour. Whatis2-5 Miles per hour, accidents were few: today when one speaks of 'gliding *long at 60, our motoring casualties exceed one million per annitm. In days of yore when people Were perhaps more virile than today, it took it man of -good physical and mental capacity to handle a spirited team of horses.
