little investigation will convince any-

Soldiers' Land Settlement Committee
of Huron County Council Meet at
Clinton
This committee to whom it was ee-
trusted to collect data and to investi-
gate to what extent the Government
would assist the returned heroes of
Huron to settle down in civil life, met
in 'Clinton on the 20th inst.
The committee was composed of
Warden Campbell, Chairman LaPorte,
Ex -Wardens Livingston and Govenlock
and Councillors Ford, Beavers, Petty
Young, Sanders and Moffatt. County
officers Holman and Lane were also in
attendance.
By request, Mr. A. Murray Allan, of
Stratford, representing the Department
of Soldiers' Vocational Training Work,
was present and gave -a very interest-.
Ing and instructive talk of the work
being carried on by the Government in
re-establishing returned soldiers in
their former occupations, and fitting
the disabled ones for useful and pro-
fitable employment in every sphere of
life, Instances were cited of the good
work where soldiers returning to all
intents and purposes totally disabled,
were now earning good wages in fac-
tories, etc. His work was intended to
make the returning men not only use-
ful citizens but also to make 1118111 feel
independent -of charity, or any resem-
blance of it, and to restore their self
confidence, Young men, who; when
enlisting had not completed their edu-
cation or trades, were taken in hand
and assisted liberally to do so. Sur-
veys of factories and other places of
employment were being made to as-
sist those looking for employment or
wishing to learn trades. Any returned
soldier, wishing'auly information Of this
nature, should drop a card giving Itis
name, regimental number, date of dis-
charge

Murray Allan, industrial Survey Otii-
cer, Stratford, and his case will re-
ceive immediate attention,
The Clerk presented such correspon-
dence and information as Ile had gath-
ered, and the committee discussed very
fully all the phases of the question so
far as the Soldier's Land Settlement
scheme has developed. The legisla-
tion so far enacted is in the formative
stage and nothing very definite can be
determined until that is complete.
But every Reeve and his council, and
every other citizen can do much to-
ward0 furnishing the names and other
information looking to absorbing these
brave boys into the civil life of our
country. This work can be begun at.
once and the sooner the better, to head
off any murmurings. of discontent that
may possibly arise through any real
or apparent indifference on our part.
Cards will he sent out to each reeve
and such information will in due
course be collected.
The following resolutions, which ex-
plain themselves, were adopted by tete
committee, and. ordered to be forward-
ed to the proper authorities and pub-
lished in our county papers:
The first, while expressing apprecia-
tion of the efforts so far in attempts
at repatriation, calls attention to a
phase of that work which needs very
serious attention. Farming being the
basic industry of our country, upon
which all others depend, it was felt
that very generous measures must be
ad,ipted to induce the boys to get back
to the land. This is made more ap-
parent, when we consider the liberal
inducement held out in other walks of
life. Canada being essentially an agri-
cultural country, the lack of labor on
the farms is the most serious obstacle
M production that the farmer is up
against, and any measure of liberal
bonuses or other inducements, similar
to that rendered those wishine to learn
trades or go to school to induce our
young men to settle on farms, will do
much to restore farnlinn to normal
a,nditions and help put it where it be-
longs as the greatest and most needed
of occupations.
The resolution, which was moved by
Mr. B. W. F. Beavers, of -Exeter, and
seconded by Mr. Jas. A. Ford, of Clin-
ton, is as follows: "That we the
i commlttee of Huron County Council ap
pointed to consider the Soldier's Land
, Settlement proposition, wish to place
on record our appreciation of the ef-
fort of our governments, both Doman-
; ion and Provincial, towards repatria-
tion of our brave soldier boys and
recognizing in a tangible manner their
patriotism, sacrifice and bravery, and
we pledge our support to the further-
ing of any scheme whereby these ef-
forts for world freedom on the part
THE DIFFERENT CLASSES OF GOOD ROADS
AND HOW THE COST IS APPORTIONED
In case tiny good roads enthusiast is still unfamiliar with the
Ontario Highways Laws, the following synopsis may be of in-
terest:
COUNTY ROADS:—A County Council is authorized -lc
assume by by-law a system of roads kr construction and main
tenance; the province contributing 5o% of the expenditure on
construction and 20% of the cost of maintenance. The road:
assumed are usually such as will accommodate the greater part
of local market travel. The mileage assumed is generally from
12 to 20% of the total mileage of the county. These roads,
are built in accordance with the Department's regulations. A
standard type is graded to a width of 24 feet to 28 feet between
ditches with broken stone or gravel to a width of from 9) to '18
feet.
PRVINCIAL COUNTY ROADS:—These toads are under
County control but to them the province contributes 60% of
the cost of construction and maintenance. In general they
are planned to form branches or feeders of the Provincial High,
way System. The road allowance for these roust be not les;
than 60 feet while the paved or metalled surface is to be
double track not less than 14 feet in width,
PROVINCIAL COUNTY ROADS:—These roads are under
is borne in the proportion of 40% by the province; 30% by
the town, and 3o% by the municipality through which the road
passes. Outside the suburban section the province assumes
70% of the cost.
.SUBURBAN ROADS; --In construction the province con-
tributes 40% and the County and town each 30%; for ma.inten-
ance the province contributes 20% and the town and county
divide the remainder equally between them.

of our heroic sons twill be recovnired,
not only according to their merits but
that they will be dealt with 111 a man-
lier, commensurate ,with our apprecia-
tion of their heroism and our ability
to deal generously with theta. But
we are of the opinion that more at-
tention should be given by our govern-
ments to devising schemes fur the re-
taining of our boys on the farms by
assisting such after the manner of the
benefits allowed others for vocational
training or further education, said as-
sistance to take the form of bonuses
or gifts other than loans to those
who wish to return to fart i life, and
that the Legislature of the Province be
asked to pass legislation empowering
C1'unty',outwits to supplement such
grants or bonuses made for such pur-
poses."

Messrs. Young, of Colborne, and Goveu

o Solve Canada's Employme i t Pro le
EVERYONE in Canada should understand just what
the Government is doing to solve the unemployment
problems that ,,nay arise through the demobilization of
our fighting forces.
(1) Employment Offices.
So that everyone -7 -male or
female, soldier or civilian—can
get quickly such jobs as are
available the Government is co-
operating with the Provinces in
establishing a chain of Public
Employment Offices.. Employ-
ers are being urged to ,make use
of these offices to secure any
help they need, Farmers, for
example, lwho need hired men
should 'apply to the -nearest
office. • There will be a -Public
Employment Office in every
town of 10,000 people—and
wherever the need for one exists.
There will be 60 different offices
in all" -ogle -halt' are alyea 11y in
operation.
(`.°). Employment f)ppwinaities.
The war held ftp lunch work
that will now be carried on at.
once. Public works, shipbuild-
ing, roadbuildilig, railway work
—construction of bt'idges, itn-
provement of road -bed, making
of new cquipnic'nt--these will
provide new opportunities for
employment. in addition, the
Government has sent a Trade
Mission overseas to secure for
Canada a share in the business of
providing; materials and pro-
ducts required for reconstruc-
tion work in Europe. It has also
set aside the
large sunt of
V25,000,(l0010 be loaned through
the Provinces to encourage the
building of workmen's houses.
This will mean much nem- work
in the spring,
(3) Land and Loons• for .Soldiers
To help soldiers become far-
mers the Government has de-
veloped a programme that
includes the providing of land,
the granting of loans, and the
training and supervision Of
those inexperienced in farming.
At present, the soldier is grant-
ed, free, in addition to his or-
dinary homestead right, one
(14101 rtc'r-$eet 1011 of 1..)r,.uin.i011
lands, He also receives s a loan
up 10 1111' maximum of $?,501).
These original plans ttt'a now
being broadened. If Parliament:
1'tl1ieS t'lu' 11CW proposals during
this session, the Soldier Sot Ile-
/tient Board will be able to buy
suitable land and re -sell it to
the Moldier at cost.
Land up to the value of
$5,000 may be bought by this
plan ---the money to be repaid
)n Z0 sears, The low interest:
rate of 5 per cent. will be ,
charged. These new proposals
well also permit. the Soldier
Settlement '.Board to loam the
soldier -farmer u1) to ,(2,500 for
purchasing equipment, e'te., in
addition to $5,000 loan on his
farm.
