OLD Huron Couuty has a fashion of
dealing promptly, and generally wisely
with public affairs. To Peet. County it
took zx ballots to select T. H Elliott, of
Cheltenham, as Warden. 2 days were
spent in the contest, Dropping the
"low man" after each ballot would soon
put a stop to the "perseverance" dis-
playedsuch a case. taxpayers
The
in
dont receive very much value for
expenditure of the per diem where a
wrestling bee of 21 rounds is supposed
to be necessary. In Huron we help
solve the difficulty by alternating the
political parties represented in the
Council.
AT Simcoe the other day the Jailer
nearly dropped dead on account of the
arrival of a man from Dunnville carry-
ing his own committment papers, usual-
ly borne by a Constable. A sentence of
days in jail for rnnoing his car while
boosy was to be served but the chauffeur
was sick and could not go to jail at the
time so agreed to make the trip himself
when health would permit and did.
That man, whose name we don't know,
may be a loon when "corned" but he
possesses honor not known to many who
face the dispensers of Jaw and order,
It is a plan worth trying and cuts down
expense. Most culprits would not be
able to locate the jail alone.
To read the comments in some of the
newspapers regarding the unfortunate
Bulpitt death near Goderich, a person
might be lead to believe every Home
boy was a martyr and his employer a
monster, Such is not the case by any
means and right in Huron Couuty scores
of cases could be cited where the so call-
ed "outsider" shares with the rest of
the family in the best that is going
This is not hearsay evidence but the
outspoken story of the parties immediate-
ly interested. There are cases where
the fault is not all with the employer
when trouble arises and patience, kind-
liness and forgiveness have been meted
out almost to the 7o times 7, limit, when
incorrigibility was the return proffered
to the family for all that had been done.
While fair play and Justice should be
accorded to all who come to odr Cana-
dian land there is just a danger that in
the minds of some extra susceptible
folk persecution may take the place of
prosecution and in that way a very
wrong impression be created, Thorough
investigation will not be found fault
with and wrong doers justly punished
but the situation will not be improved

OLD fashioned lamella continues to
get in its work in kind) ng barn fires and
fire and causing at the same time boost-

Lames quite a bit as if old time
aristocracy in the Old Land was in for a
tumble to democracy. The "upper to"
and the "lower 5" are no longer what
they used to be as far as the standing
of days gone by and democracy runs a
good chance to win out. Blue blood
often ouly has the advantage in maybe

some of the nabobs are as poor as the

Inshector Field's Report
Of East Horan Schools
Dr, Field reported for East Heron to
Huron Co. Council ae follows ;—Dur-
ing the Fall term there was a larger
number of schools with a small at-
tendance—in some cases reaching al-
most to the vanishing point—than in
any previous year. There are other
schools that have increased in at-
tendance, so that. throughout the In-
spectorate, the average of the last few
years has been maintained, While
the email school with an attendance
of 10 or under has for some time been
looked on as a problem to be dealt
with, affording little return to the
community or teacher for time or
money expended, neither the local or
Provincial authorities have been dili-
gent in applying a remedy.
In the early part of the year and
continuing until the warm weather,
there were in different localities of
the Inspectorate outbreaks of measles,
whooping cough and scarlet fever
with a little small -pox by way of var-
iety ; these, with the ever -prevailing
colds, seriously affect the attendance,
especially in rural sahools, where the
spread is more general ; the progress
of the pupils is much affected by the
resulting pool' attendance, Not much
care seems to be taken to prevent
contagion.
PLENTY TEACH.EIt8 TO SELECT FROM
All the teachers employed in 1923
were fully qualified ; the supply now
seems to have overtaken the demand.
In recent appointments boards have
had generous lists to select from.
There are 12 male teachere out of 89
in the rural schools artd 3 out of 32 in
the urban schools, Only 2 public
schoolteachers have Fitst•clase cer-
tificates. 21 teachers employed last
term were without previous ex-
perience; 20 had one year's exper-
ience. With only a very few excep-
tions, however the work done by those
teachers has been highly creditable.
Brussels added 2 teachers to their
staff this year—one to the Continua-
tion and one to the public school ; the
attendance in both depaittnents had
increased considerably.
SCHOOL IMPROVEMENTS
A fine new brick school was put up
ill S. S. No. 10, Grey township, at the
cost of about 97,000. Ratepayers were
a lung time considering the project,
but when they did build they put tip a
school that is certainly a credit to the
oommunity,
SOHN JOYNT, M. P, i'.,
NORTH HURON,
who takes his place at Toronto this
week at opening of Legislature.
Seaforth public school board ex-
pended about $12,000 in improve-
ments ; they put in a new steam heat-
ing system and Metalled sanitary clos-
ets in one of the vacant rooms.
There are at present 12 rural schools
and 4 out of the 6 urban schools that
have sanitary closets in the basement;
6 yeare ago Wingham was the only
school that was so provided. The in-
crease shows the consideration that
some courrnunities have for the nom•
fort and health of the children.
Average attendance of urban
schools during the Fall term was 93
per cent, of the enrollment ; that of
the rural schools was 85 per cent. ;
during the teem now beginning the
average in the ut'bau schools way
drop 2 or 3 per cent., but in many
rural schools the average commonly
drops to 85 per cent., depending on
distance and weather conditions,
DOUBTFUL IF SPECIAL GRANT WILL BE
CONTINUED
Salaries of teachers have in
general undergone no change since
last year ; as Tong as the high grades
continue, salaries will be stable a-
round 81,000, that amount being ne•
cosset to secure the highest percent-
age of the bonus grant, It is very
doubtful if the present Government,
will continue this grant, as it involv-
ed, in this Inspectorate alone, an ex-
penditure of 831,800 I think it was a
mistake to base this grant solely on
salaries, as when it is gone there is
nothing to show for it ; had part of it
been based on building and equip.

Canadian wheat exports for the
twelve months ending September
30th, 1923, amounted to 225,747,861
bushels, valued at $269,445,816,
while for the twelve months ending
September, 1922, they were 160,637,-
898 bushels, valued at $194,577,125,
according to a report of the Do-
minion Bureau of Statistics.
Exports of bacon from Canada to
Great Britain increased almost 3,-
000,900 pounds during the first
nine months of the current calendar
year. For this period, during 1922.
there were 70,988,000 pounds of
Canadian bacon shipped to the
British market, while this year the
corresponding figure rose to 73,-
934,000 pounds.
The value of -ib; rlisbindos export,

The year 1923 will see a new re-
cord in Alberta coal production. It
is expected the total production for
the year will reach 7,000,000 tons,
in comparison with less than 6,000,-
000 last year. The production up
to November 1st Is 1,500,000 tons
greater than the production for the
same period last yoar. The record
production previously was in 1920,
when 6,400,000 tone were produced,
The pay -roll this year is ezpected
to exceed $18,000,000.
Great ipterest Is being manifested
in the International Dog Derby to
be run at Quebec during the Winter
Carnival on February 21st, 22nd and
23rd, 1924. The race is for teams
of huskies driven by Indiana, trap-
pers, traders, mail carriers and oth-
ers. At present ten entries have
been received and others are ex-
pected from the north shore of the
St. Lawrence and from the Abitibi
mining district. As navigation will
soon close, it will be necessary for
entries from the latter district to
mush 400 miles to reach Quebec.
About five American teams will
probably take part, their object be-
ing to regain the gold cup for the
United States.
What might have resulted in a
very serious train wreck was avoided
in the nick of time on the Canadian
Pacific Railway Parry Sound sub-
division, by section foreman Con -
rani, who while patrolling the track
near Brignall recently discovered
two large iron nuts on top of the
rails, securely fastened with hay
wire. The foreman had just time
to unfasten the wire and remove
the nuts to clear the trek for a
train was due in five minutes. Two
boys in the vicinity admitted, after
questioning, that they wired the
nuts to the rails. They were sen-
tenced to the local shelter for one
month and their fathers were re-
quired to give bond and report to
the authorities for two yeare.
