From the above it will be seen that in the quantities shipped to Canadian
ports, Ooderi'ch exceeded all Canadian lake and bay ports, with . somewhat
larger volume going to the export transfer ports of Montreal and Port -Colborne.
Of the total annoiint shipped to Canadian and American lake ports, about- orie-
third went to United States ports. .It is gratifying to note that the major part
of this movement was via Canadian boats, some 174 in all, as against 29 Ameri-
can boats which discharged at American ports.

Throngs of people attended the
first day service of 'Knox Presbyter-
ian 'centennial, when. Rev. G. E. Ross
D. D., of Fredericton, N. B.,.. preached
both sermons. Dr. 'Ross, was pastor
of Knox Church from 1910 to 1915.
Everyone attending the services was
asked to sign the register and so

did nbt get started until .'
,almost 11.30
Dr. Ross was assisted in the ser-
vice by. `Rev. D. J. Lane, the pastor,
who read the scripture lesson, . Ephe-
sians, the fourth ' chapter. Mrs.
Harold Lawson, Clinton, sang. a . con-
tralto solo beautifully.
Dr. Ross offered a prayer after
which the choir sang the anthem, "0
Praise the Lord".
Mr. Lane expressed his apprecia-
tion at having Dr. Ross here but stat-
ed khat he was very sorry that Rev.
T. D, S. 'McKerroll, Moderator of the
General Assembly, was unable to at-
tend the services, owing to the .fact
that he had to be in the Maritime
provinces at the end of this week.
Taking as his text the phrase,
"Truly God hath done great things
for us whereof we are glad", Dr.
Ross spoke reminiscently of his days
in Goderich and of the historical
background which the church has
built up in the past4decade• •"This is
a great day and a great week for the
Presbyterians of Goderich", said 'the
speaker:. He told the congregation
that it was exactly, 25 years ago that
he received a letter from the late Dr.
Strang, who was • at the time clerk of
the session, asking him to come to
Goderich. The induction took place
on November 9th, 1910.
Dr. Ross delivered a message of
congratulations from the congrega-
tion of his church in Fredericton to
the congregation of Knox Church and
to Dr. T. Wardlaw Taylor.
"When we .look at the ,record of
the past, there is . much to thank God
for, and much ,to be proud of", said
Dr. Ross. 'God often works out his
finest purposes 'by an indirect meth-
od and 'so we must never fail the
God who never fails us", said the
minister.
Dr. Ross reviewed 'church history
from the first record of Presbyter-
ianism in Goderich, 105 years ago to
the present time. There have been
but 11 ministers in Knox Church
since the time of its founding, one

CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE
In Huron -Perth _Riding --for Federal House-. --Nominated on Friday
At Enthusiastic Convention At Hensall.
At the Conservative convention at
Hensel' on Friday afternoon, Mr. Frank
Donnelly, barrister of Goderich, was an
easy winner: Three of the others with-
drew in his favor, and the fourth was,,
not present, leaving Mr. Donnelly as. the
Conservative, standard bearer for the
Huron -Perth riding.
The others nominated were Charles
Berber, Seaforth; Richard' Parks, Sea -
forth; James Morley, Exeter, and Mr.' R.
H. Taylor, of Dashwood.
Mr. Donnelly's mover and seconder
were Jack Broderick of Seaforth and
Mrs., Arthur Cole, Hibbert Township.
Sam. Hannah of Seaforth and Mr.
William Frays' a of Exeter presented the
motion making Mr. Donnelly's nomina-
tion unanimous. •
There are now that candidate, in

Mr. Lyle Lesner, K.C., of .Sarnia, presi-

The Candidate
Mr. Donnelly said there might be some
suggestion that he did not live in the
riding and that was so. He lived in
Goderich, which had previously been in
the riding but had been shifted in the
last reci:thtribution. He pointed to the
ill -will which had been created in North
Huron )as the result of the nomination of
an outsider• from a considerable distance.

in the riding had been nominated, If

God, through six decades,` she has
prospered. The late census showed
a membership: in Canada of 870,000
persons while the world merfibership
stands at the 50,000,000 mark. Thus
the burning bush emblem has main-
tained a place in expanding the work
at home and abroad, declared Dr.
Ross. However the glory of the
Church does not consist of her num-
erical strength nor her material
possessions, but it consists of her
spirituality. "Be it never forgotten"
warned' the speaker, that the church
is not a mere organization for social
improvement, but it is a living or-
4ganism with the redemption of sin
as its aim."

The September meeting of the

/ oon, several members started out
for a game on the- links, but were
driven to shelter by rain,
Mr. Nelson Hill gave a report of

dren. It disclosed that the net
amount realized was no less a sum
than $1,362.37, all of which would be
applied towards assisting crippled

Mr. I. D. Bell of Toronto as guest
speaker .gave a half - hour address,
after the dinner, on the possibilities
of soy beahs. He stated' that Henry
Ford last year spent two million dol
on a commercial paying basis, the r
yield should then be from 30 to 40
bushe}s to the acre• Mr. Bell also.
stated that the straw of soya beans
was practically as good as alfalfa
for cattle, and tha: it wa', also a
high class fertilizer.
He advainced three reasons why
farmers should cultivate soya beans:
they were food for the cattle; they
built up the land; and they furnished
ready cash --$14. an acre -was an &v-
erage return from the second year,
and thereafter. Soya beans put
more into the land than they took out
of it, said Mr. Bell, who recommen-
ded alternating crops of corn and
beans.
A factory is being established in
Stratford, explained Mr. Bell, where
flour, various kinds of oils and var1 fi-
shes, glues for air planes and other
products would be manufactured, it
was hoped, in the near future.

North Huron. Mr. Sco+t, who ds pre-
sident of the United Farmers of On-

having hadpersonal•-contact with Ntr.

Mr. Scott began his discourses by
stating that he felt the Price Spreads

ses of the people today is, the power
of banks to make money. When tinges
become good the banks start pump-
ing money into circulation and with-
draw it from circulation when times
are bad. This system is so slow in
operating that tire people hardly not-
ice it,, 4r. Scott said. During the
war, Canada went off the gold" stand-
ard and two dollars were printed for
every once dollar that was formerly
in the country. Prices of farm pro-
ducts doubled. Since 1920 the banks
have been withdrawing money froth
circulation.
In explanation of this point, Mr.
Scott said, "If the banks lend you
$100 and von buy a good steer, but
prices go down until it takes four
such steers to pay the money back,
the :banks ae the ones . who have
been the cause of the low `prices and
they make the profit".
The depression hit Agriculture in
1920, asserted Mr. Scott. In 1920 it
took 8t5 acres of wheat to buy a bin -
dot' and ..Ili IMO it :Wok 25 acres of
wheat to buy a binder. Surely this
demonstrates that there is something
wrong with bur credit system,- he ex-
claimed.

The County of Huron is•experi-
menting with a new ' type of road-
way and if the process proves satis-
factory;, it w ll4.2 Ldoubt be used ex-
tensively on highways, over which
the County has justification. While
the process has been tried out in
other sections of Ontario, this 'is the
first time, as far as .can be learned,
it has been used in this section of the
province. As the raw materials, re-
quired may bo secuT ed in unlimited
quantities in this district, there is •no
doubt that a real test will be given
this type of road. .
Simple Process
The section of roadway, approxi-
mately a mile long, lies just west of
Hrucefield, on what is. officially
known as No. 3,, Stanley, and will
soon be completed. The process is a
simple one as explained to The Star.
First the- section was scarified to
loosen the-mitxure of clay and gravel
which composed its torp, then 26 tons
of salt whet' has been supplied free
-by the Goderich Salt Co., was spread
over the surface, The :lead machine
was then used to thoroughly mix the
salt with the gravel before it was
finally levelled.
It is claimed that- the road -bed
packs readily, particularly "if it is
sprinkled -with water, while being
levelled anal makes a smooth, hard
surface.
'Just and loose gravel has been .re-
cogn.izedl as a danger to, traffic and
since it has been imposni..ble, owing
to general conditions the past few
years to construct high cost pave-
ment, attention has been turned to
in�prbVing gravel roads. The County
of .Huron has improved the surface
of about forty miles of roadway' this
year by adding clay and calcium
chloride, and the result has been
dustless roads, practically free from
loose gravel.
Experiment With h Salt-.,
And now salt mm.
c3 n m beimi� usa� to de-
termine the possibility of its value in
road building. Through the generos-
ity of Mr. Wurtele, the section of
road described above, and another
short stretch will probably be treated
with salt with a slightly different
Mixture- of -cls -y, and gravel. -These ex-
periments will be watched with in-
terest as it will be of great value to
the County of Huron, if it can be
demonstrated that secondary roads
can be so improved and at the same
tme 'an almost 'unlimited market
c-eated for the use of a local product.

the public platform, that the Reconstruction Party has no
connection with any other Political Party, nor does it in-
tend to have any now, or at any future date.
(2) The old political parties are too shackled By the, moneyed
Interests to deal adequately with present day problems.

e15 planks in the Hon. 11. II. Stevens' Reconstruc-
tion. Policy- e may -he _...receised_.froim either • Miss- --I

political opponents today are gradually .sawing it off; and
will have it all sawed off before election' day;, so you had
better vote for Mr. Stevens, the man of action, who had
the courage to put the interests of the masses of the people
