Lord Willi/lesion rendered eplendid
semice in India, and always urged
the extension of good relations be-
tween the British people and the nat-
ive races of the Indian Empire. la
0 remarkable address, delivered last
year, after his return, he pleaded for
"abeolute equality" between white
and colored people.
"The gospel of self-determination"
he said, "everywhere is eagerly re-
ceived by colored races, and the
Great War strengthened the convic-
tion in the mind of the colored man
that the white man's civilizetiOn had
mane defeets. This led to the color-
ed man repudiating his position of in-
feriority and to his belief that the
moral basis of Eastern life was in
many ways higher and nobler than
that of the West.
'The white man has a difficult task
to bring healingand contentment to
Eastern peoples and it is imperative
that we should discover, if possible,
some means of .solving thi$ question
by peaceful methods and not by a
clash of races which would . be the
most ghastly tragedy the world has
ever known.

A brief outline of how the oil elec-
tric engine came into being will per-
haps convey to the reader a better
understanding of it and the great ini•
portance that is attached to its in-
ventor. It is a well known fact that
increased fuel costs and competition
by the motor buses on the public high
ways have provided a problem for the
steam operated railways that was not;
to be considered lightly. For . 501110
years past t he engineering depart-
ments of. all the large railways both
in the United States and in Canada
have been seeking to devise some
method of power that would cut down
operating costs and at the Name time
give the same satisfa-ction which it
must be admitted steam locomotives
have been giving. In other words
they wanted an engine that could be
run more (menet:ilk:illy.

The clerk presented the following
communications:

the Wardell spoke of the pleasant
day's proceedings and the pleasant
visit to Kincardine. He also spoke
of the appointment of valuators.,as
taken up so far by adjoining coun-
ties.
Under the head of enquiries Me
McQuaid spoke of the nuisance pre-
vailing with regard to the camping
of gypsies or others on the pubic
highways. Mr. Saunders said that the
statutes provided for such things and
that any person living in the munici-
pality has the power to prefer a
charge and have the nuisance' abated
by law. In .sonic municipalities by-
laws were passed prohibiting such eondition except that we reeommend
and notices were put up. These by- ,guere fences as follows:'100 feet on

The road and bridge committee re-

May and proceeded to the east boun-
dary of Grey township, where we
met the Road and Bridge committee
of Perth County. We examined a
cement culvert between concessions
4 and 5 Grey, which had fallen dosvn.
It was agreed that it should be made
passable in the meantime until it is
possible to construct a new one.
We next examined the Albert An -
net bridge between the Oth and 711.1
concessions of Grey and found the
north abutment was undermined awl
defective and it was agreed that it
should be reinforced with concrete
under the direction of Mr. Patterson.
We next visited the Bowes bridge
and also the Menzies bridge on the
boundary of Grey and we 000010 -
