Bert. d ntyre Ford Garage Brussels YEARLY REPORT OF BRUSSELS WOI EN'S IN, The business year of Brussels Women's Institute closed with a membership of 50. Eleven meetings were held during the year, one being addressed by the Government speak- er, Miss Matthews, of Simcoe. The aggregate attendance for the year was 315 and average attends ce 29. The receipts totalled $443,89 and cash on hand '$12.82. During; the year there _were 14 papers or ad- dresses given and three demonstra- tions witnessed. One paper was on .Agriculture; three on home econom- ics; one on Historical Research; and one, dealt with diet or health. There also were several papers on Current Events. The Women's Institute provided prizes, valued at $10.00 in one of the classes of the Baby Show held at the Brussels Fall Fair. The Institute bought a piano dur- ing the year and placed it in the audience room of the Public Library. Now there is a well-equipped kitchen, also piano, owned by the Iostltutc, for use of the community for a nom- inal rent. A baking sale and afternoon tea under the auspices of the institute was held on Saturday, the 'proceeds of which amounting to $36 was given to the Public Library Board, in re- turn for use of Library, which the Branch enjoys so very much. At the September meeting the Roll was answered by a Shower of fruit, resulting in 27 jars of different kinds of preserves being sent to the Child- ren's Shelter, Goclerich. In answer to the first call of the Federated Women's Institutes of On= tario, $5 was donated towards paying a doctor's salary at Tobermory; $10 WS given to the Navy League of Canada, and also to the Children's War Memorial Hospital, London. Over $28 was sent to the Armenian Relief Association. Bou Branch ssels B a ch cgntributed $2.00 towards the expenses of the Women's Institutes Booth at London Fair. At the Christmas holiday season a well-conducted and much enjoyed card party and dance was held under the direction of the Women's Instit- ute, which netted the Branch nearly $ 70.00. Some of the Institute members got up the play "The Rag Carpet Bee" which resulted in much enjoyment to themselves and one of the best con- certs in Brussels for some little time and cleared $100. aitrAt t TT is almost inconceivable that a car so low in price as the "Bigger and Better" Chevrolet should possess so many quality features. The minute you step into , the "Bigger and Better" Chevrolet, take the wheel in your hands and step on the starter, you realize that, no matter what the price, you are in a really fine car. For the interior luxury of Chevrolet ... its smooth, powerful motor ... its quick response to accelerator and brakes ... its riding comfort ... its up-to-date completeness ... all bear out the impression of big - car quality conveyed by the exterior beauty and style of the new Chevrolet Fisher Bodies. When you have looked closely into the deep-rooted, far-reaching quality of the `Bigger and Better" Chev- rolet, hewrolet, you will appreciate how ridiculously low are the now Chevrolet prices. 0-5.5-200 Tho G.hf.A.C, .

H. FEAR, Clerk. In his address Mr. Robertson told the meeting that Premier Ferguson le a "petty politician," and that he "doesn't measure up in the same class as the men at Ottawa." "His whole attitude is political ex- pediency, and what will be popular with the people. He is the poorest; minister of Education we ever had. He its not applying himself to that job, he is too much mixed up with petty ward politics in Toronto," de- clar'ed the speaker. TOWNSHIP BOARDS. He said that Mr. eFrguson had fallen clown on the Township School Board Bill, which he promised to enact four years ago. and that he hadn't sufficient courage to withdraw it now. He said that Mr. Ferguson had failen to give justice to small rural towns in the matter of educat- ional grants, and accused the Prime Minister of "dilly-dalling." He had devoted his whole energy to the liq- uor 'situation ,and yet, if he had given half as much time to the edu- cational situation, it would not be in the present condition. The speak- er also stated that the Ferguson Government had failed to treat the small urban parts of the province fairly in the matter of hydro distri- bution. "Ontario's debt had continued to increase since the Drury Govern- ment went out in 1028," he said; "the annual expenditures increasing from $37,000,000 to $65,000,000." In spite of a revenue last year, great, er than previously by $9,000,000 there was a surplus of only $287,000 he said. "and they talk of paying off the provincial debt by making pay- ments of $3,000,000 a year'." Mr. Robertson pointed to the in- creasing prosperity of the country under the King administration, and referred to the Robb budget. He dealt with the important part women played in the work of the party, and asked their active support, especially in the Liberal party's opposition to the Liquor Control Act. He dealt with the proposed Township. Schol Board Bill, and stated that the need, for strict economy was urgent. He also advocated the reform, or aboli- tion of the Senate, holding that that body is not consletent with modern democratic government. Touching on Federal politics, Mr. Robertson said that the interests of Western Ontario had been well look- ed after at Ottawa, and that the Government had lead at heart the in- terests of the people. He mentioned the work of Hon, W. D. Euler, Hon. 3. C. Elliott, P. C., and Hon. James Malcolm, particularly in this regard. BLAKE MILLER. Mr, Miller dealt with the temper- ance question, and asserted that the problem would never be settled un- til a Dominion -wide prohibition act 18 in force. He delivered an attack on the pre- sent Liquor Control Act, and held . that it embraced nothing of an up- lifting character to benefit tate hones of the province. A total of $50,000- 000 of hard liquor was to be sold in the province, an average of $18 worth for each person in Ontario., "If you pour $50,000,000 of liquor down Ontario's throat, then look at the results," he said. "Mr. Ferguson is not a manly per- son," Mr. Miller said. "He's a side - stepper. He lives on a policy of ens unciating promises. Ile is a hum - bag.'' 1']ir. speaker asserted that Mr, Fer- the tcin- gusol had"humbugged,"o porance people, the Orange order, and now was "humbugging" the French -'Canadians. For 18 years Mr. Ferguson has lived under the graces of the Orange[ Lodge," he said, "but now, casting bis eyes to New Ontario he thinks ETHEL P. L. and Mre.
