THE people are waiting anxiously for
the new potato crop 111 the hope that the
profiteering at from ten to ,Re pct Lag
will speedty toboggan.
OLD roosters are still gnntrtl at 25
cents per pound ou the city market.
There's a lot sf chewing on one of these
old lads but the consumer does not
crow much about it.
EVEN up the high cost of paper by

THE world famous Detective W. A,
Pinkertou says you canuot refo'm a

lesson than shame to a criminal, hence
he favors the lash anti the rhumbecrew,
Wonder if he is right after all the at-

little abatement of crime?
OVER. $52,000 were taken in at the

Daily tax is $Io,Ooo, but even so some-
body must be making a pile. Talk
about being hard up, it don't look like
it and proves that folk can get bold of
money somehow when they determine to
do what they want to The lesson is
clear even if the expenditure ,may not
always be wise.
You may be sure it is not a good sign
to read in many newspapers that com-
panies in various cities, known as
"Wreckers" are busy demolishing scor-
es of buildings lu the towns Rad villages,
(some of them large, well built strut-
tore) for the sake of the timber, lumber
brick, doors, windows, &c., secured, all
of which have risen to such unknown
prices. It seems a pity that this new
order of things is in vogue tor in many
cases the buildings will possibly never
be replaced.
DON'T be a grouch and cry over mod-
ern and almost invaluable improvements
and novelties that have found their way
into this loth century. You would not
be happy for a half day if the world
backed up to the "good old days" of the
ox -cart, monthly mail, the scythe and
cradle. This is the best age people ever
bad the opportuuity of living in, Of
course there are fade, fools and excesses
but we don't have to ride in their bus
unless we want to. Make this the
golden era by being first class citizens.
Don't whine.
A lengthy list of U. F, 0. picnics is
published at which addresses will be
given by Cabinet Ministers, M. P, P.'s
and others. This is wbat THE POST al-
ways argued for viz the thorough so-
quaintance of our parliamentarians with
the geographical situations and history
of the land and heart-to-heart talks with
the electors. It is a good counter if the
story to be told is fele, brotherly and
free from selfishness and grab. The
0' people are the folk who should rule not
some small percentage who by thence
have been elected and want to rule to
please their party no matter who is hit,

you push your trade, protession or call-

THE JUNE SESSION
OF COUNTY COUNCIL
Council Rejects Majority Report
on Hospital Grants.
The June session of the County
council opened at the court house,
Goderich on Tuesday afternoon of last
week. Warden Petty in the chair and all
the members present except Reeve Cutt
who was absent thiough illness.
Among the communications received
were the following.
From the Department of Education,
Toronto, showing the amount of grants
to the schools in the county, as fol-
lows. Public schools, $2,123.53; sep-
arate schools, $100.03—total $2,228,
56.
From the Deputy Minister of High-
ways approving of bylaw No 16 ap-
pointing Mr. T.R. Patterson county
engineer.
From the same notifying the council
of the grant to this county from the
Province on good roass, amounting to
$57,168,13, this being sixty per cent.
on construction work and forty per
cent, on maintenance on a total expeni-
ture of $131,399,09 in the year 1919.
From the Government whip, Mr.
Andrew F. Hicks, M,P.P. notifying
the council that Hon. F. C. Biggs, Pro-
vincial Minister of Public Works, will
address a meeting at 'Clinton on the road
policy of the Government on June 15th.
From the Provincial inspector of
hospitals and public charities, reporting
on the County Honte. This report con-
cluded with the significant statement:
"My visit was a pleasure."
From the clerk of Victoria county
advocating that pr lige magistrt(tes'
fines be paid over to the counties in-
stead of the Province.
From the Provincial board of license
commissioners giving a statement of
expenditures in the enforcement of the
Canada Temperance Act in Huron.
From the Chatham Chamber of Com-
merce, enclosing a resolution asking
the Department of Highways to have
a permanent surface put on roads des-
ignated as Provincial highways, partic-
ularly the Alain traffic lines.
From K. D. MacLennan, enclosing a
claim of $6.75 for damages to his
automobile.
From the Deputy Minister of Educa-
tion, with reference to the proposed
new school inspectorate to be made
from portions of Huron, Middlesex and
Lambton counties. The letter stated "1
that it is difficult to say in what way
the placing of Stephen and Hay under
a new inspectorate would interfere
with the old associations to which you
refer, 2 it does not appear to be pro-
bable that the introduction of consol-
idated schools will affect the situation
for years to come. 3 it appears further
that a complete reorganization of the
inspectorates in the county of Huron
is not only desirable but necessary,"
From the Harriston High school en-
closing a bill of $417.36 for Huron
pupils attending that school,
From the clerk of the county of Ox-
ford proposing that the Government
be asked to pass legislation to increase
the width of sleighs.
From the county of Renfrew, with
reference to increasing the bounty on
wolves owing to their destructiveness
in the northern counties,
Reeve Grieve of Seaforth was added
to the hospital colnmittee in place of
Reeve Cutt.
Gaoler Griffin submitted his report
showing seven prisoners at pre*ent ins
careerated its the county gaol. Mr.
Griffin also applied for increaser •4
Salary for hiinself and the gaol matron,
Mrs, Griffin.
On Wednesday morning snxatSeller
eomrnunications were received iaaltxA-
ing the following:
From the Western oatatto United
',lb of May last when his horse shied
and voing to the unprotected condit-
ion ci the highway at that point the
earn:ttee 143, overturned and the occu^
pants thrown out, Mrs. Parish injured
and other damages sustained. '1'11e claim
was for $too,
Front. R, DeLong, caretaker of the
court house, and Turnkey Knox, as
king for increases of salary.
Under the head of "Enquiries" many
matters pertaining to coontYw0Y
k were
brought up and discussed. Mr. Doig,
wished the matter of the control andl
ownership of crushers definitely set-
tled. He suggested that the townships
which had paid for crushers be reins- 1
bursed by the county, less the town-
ship's share of cost, and that the crush-
ers then become the property of the 1
county and rental be paid by any I i2
township using thein, Dr. Clark spoke
of the necessity of reflooring the Salt -
ford bridge. These matters were re
(erred to the good roads commission.
The special committee appointed to
report on the question of union gaols
reaffirmed the position taken by the
large proportion of prisoners in the
Province were confined in seven gaols
in the larger centres. The mainten-
ance of gaols in Huron and Bruce
counties was expensive in proportion
to the number of prisoners confined
therein. The average cost per year for
each prisoner in the Huron gaol in the
year 1918 was $735,75; in Bruce
county 6920; while in the larger Gen-
res the average was about $243 per
prisoner. The committee was of opin-
ion that the continued maintenance
uneconomic and also undesirable from
a humane point of view and recomm-
ended that the matter be drawn to the
attention of the Prime Minister of Ont-
tario, to the local members of the Leg- ,
islature and to the county councils
throughout. Ontario, "with a view of
awakening more interest in this im-
portant matter and, effecting a speedy
and touch needed remedy for what has
become an obsolete, extravagant and in
many cases wasteful method of caring
for prisoners," 1
A resolution was adopted expressing
regret at the absence through illness
of Reeve Cutt.
Another resolution placed record
its sorrow of the council at the death
of the late county engineer, Mr. Donald
Patterson, and instructed the clerk to
forward a letter of condolence and sym- 1
pathy to the widow and family.
The council was waited upon Wed-
nesday afternoon by representatives of
Goderich, Cilnton, Seaforth and Wing -
ham who asked for increased aid to
hospitals in the county. A committee
appointed to deal with this matter seat
in a majority and a minority report
over which the council got into quite
a tangle on Thursday evening. The
majority report (recommending a grant
of $8,000 to each of five hospitals on
condition that the town in which such
hospital is situated raises an equal
amount) was voted down. The minor-
ity report which was adopted recomm-
ended larger grants to the existing hos-'
pitais in the county, but did not name
arty amounts. •

"You can't imagine what it meant
to me to be free from pain after hav-
ing suffered with Neuralgia for 12
years," writes Mrs. Brunner, 624 Elm
St., Buffalo, N.Y. "I am 68 years old
and have been under different doctors'
care for the past 12 years. When my
attacks came on the agony was un-
bearable. Even the sound of human
voices was unendurable. When visiting
in Toronto I heard of T.B.C,'s and
took a
box home with me.
"One of my bad attacks came along
soon after. The T.E.C.'s gave me
quick relief and the attack, which gen-
erally -used to last for days, was over
in half an hour. Since tbet time I
have never been without them and
have no further fear of my old en-
emy." Neuralgia or had headaches
need no longer make you suffer.
