so called "smart, oute" people are no

young people to cultivate those gifts and

brutal attacks by participants in the
game. There is something exhiliarating
in a warm, well contested game bot in-
discriminate slagging or "laying for". an
opponent is a dastardly piece of business
that should rale the offender out of play
for the season. The rules ehonld be more
etriotly enforced and the slasher should
be hissed rather than applauded as be
sometimes ie. There is nothing elevat-
ing.in sport that degenerates in broken
beads, damaged limbo and endangered
dives through the great stress placed upon
the word "viotory." Let us have a loftier
etaodurd and live up to it or quit alto-
gether. The cure reete largely with the
publics who by refusing to patronize any-
tbiug but genuine, manly oompetitione
would soon drive out the rowdy, bullying
element.

This is a piece of road travelled a great

compare very favorably with those of any
of the towns in the County but perman•
enoy is one of the most important o00-
sideratioae in keeping them in good order.
The townships of Grey and Morrie should
take hold of this road question too as
there is not a main road in the Conoty
requiring immediate attention more thaw
the one from Walton to Morrisbank,
largely because the yearly amount ex-

The following are the Secretary Trees•
avers el the various Sehoo1 Sections of
East Huron :
Now that the Temperance peop'e and
the liquor men have eaob waited on the
^v-TTe11v. ent. oereferenoe to tie Prohibi-
tion question in Mario no doubt Premier
Ro80 and hie fol. wing will anon lay their
plane before the people. It looks at the
present as if a referendum will be the
ooura., and this is poaeibly the wisest
oonreo. The experience with Temperance
legislation,- both paet and present, has
proven that many temperance people
while very sympethetio are very apatbetio
and take little or no interest in aiding the
proper enforcement of the best license
law on record. We often bear, bat don't
believe the statement, that the Scott lot
was a positive injury to the oouotry. We
oould name not a few who nude its en.
actment in Huron Co. the date of a teeto-
tal life but if Prohibition legislation is
enacted and eaooesefally enforced a large
moral force will be required ae backing
and unless this is freely offered and people
are prepared to resolutely book np their
words we are not so ewe as to the wisdom
of placing the law on the statute book.
The dire results of liquor traffic to thous•
ands of homes need no portrayal by us
and yet there is very littlepraotioal in•
tercet taken by the majority of even
Christian people to stem the tide that is
carrying ao many to teatime's/ graves.
Woad any wider interest be taken if
Prohibition were a reality i0 Ontario?
Certainly there would have to be a maim-
ing of effort, a stiffening of baok bone, an
individual arousing a8 the real fight
would only oommenoe when the law was
pat into operation, We want to see the
boys and young men of this county safe-
guarded but we want it to come in tench a
manner that themembers tef the various'
oharohee and heads of families will show
that they possess the teenage of their cone
'lotions and will stand firmly and nobly
by the Prohibition banner. Are we toady
to do Ebel ? If an answer in the affirms.
*lye can be given in unmistakeable terms
then by all means let a8 have Prohibition

part will be taken the next three menthe.

The aim with this concern is to ac

on the plane they are adopting.
Nearly all the apples grown in Huron
County the past season were purchased
at around $2 00 per barrel, They are in
storage in Toronto and can be sold, and
are being sold out daily, at 94 50 per bar

crop for one half what it should bring
simply because they have no means of
