Britannia'' la still the soog, Runtime Beown. of Morley Avenue, Toronto, 114 no less than five sons at the front and three have been wounded. Very few families possess so noteworthy a record. THE next few weeks will be a time of anxiety to many a youth who writes or • has written on exams. One trouble with some students is the vstay they „ ; procrastinate in the earlier periods of study leaving too much to make up at the close of the term. Nothing like "digging in" early in the year. NEARLY 9,000 casualties out of 80,00o men at the front or ready to go tell the story of Canadian loyality and patriotism to the Motherland and the rights she is maintaining at the battle front. It is a titanic struggle without any doubt but if lasting Peace is enthroned and mili- tary despotism smashed for the time to come it will not be in vain. • t• Priallibitibn, we will ere Mighti'y unto p1be ii the tattitnates to i,epitir that re judgmetft of doonty court God and it $00k o Retnembyance willOleelt'e voice, In explanation it may foe 5315 and Poeta to .Police Magls. be written and in Viet cry t le miqu oe .tha.

We will have nothing to do with a lic• ense under a Commission or withont Commission. We are out to annihilate the trade. Nothing else will do." ANGLICAN SYNOD, ToeOrtro — "In view of the danger occasioned to the Empire bv the ravages of this deadly and insidious foe to our race, this Synod most earnestly advocates and approves of the policy of total Ptohibltirm uE the liquor traffic during the time of the war and instructs the committee on temper- ance and moral and social reform to take alt steps in their power in conjunction with other religious bodies to procure legislation in order to achieve this re. suit REV. MR ARMITAGE, A•i"MIE ANGLICAN SYNoD, TOEONTO It IS the Church that is on trial and not the liquor traffic " M ARE. BREMN, AT THE ANGLICAN SY. non Tottorvro —"Some things you can- not regulate. The only means is aboll tion. If ever there waS a curse that can- not be regrilated It is the liquor traffic. Abolition for the length ot the war is good but tor all time is better." HARD times is talked over the war but as far as Ontario is concerned there is very little foundation for such a plea. One proof is the fact that up to June1St. 1M 5, the Ontario government issued ar,000 motor liCe,t1SeS, as many as for the whole of lora. People appear to have money for anything they really make up their minds to spend it on and the excuse of financial shrinkage appears to be More an 5551155 than a valid reason when it is offered, The Patriotic funds Under various names, have been gener- ously supported but there 15 no reason for letting as the call is yet very in- sistent, The more the affairs of the late Mani- toba government are probed the greater necessitarto wear a clothespin on your nose. It would appear that the scape- goats could tell a story, if they would, that would show as crooked a trail in public affairs as would be fittingly repre- sented by a snake rail fence. Evidently the Salt bas lost its savor but the "high- er-ups" have a good right to be made bear the brunt and their share of public dishonor placed where it properly be- longs. We do not believe in belittling public men without cause but when they desert the principles of uprightness they should be told about it. The Tor- onto News a very warm supporter of the Conservative faith, says of Manitoba's affairs :—"The revelations of political misdoings in Manitoba are disturbing to the last degree, Clearly all who are in- volved must be exposed and punished," Toararro C, T U. 'We deplore the continuation of the open barrooms with their deleterious Influence. In view of the action of other Nations, we had hoped that the Government of this Province wodld take more drastic meas- ures entirely to prohibit the sale of at. coholic liquor during the war. Be it, therefore, resolved that we urge up= the lucal unions to continue every effort to agitate and educate public opinion on the question." RI REV Da. HEEDGE RETIRED IMODER- AToR. AT THE PRVIIYTERIAN GENERAL ASsEMBLY.—"And then there is the curse of intemperance in our land. Even though we may not be prepared to assert that prohibition will necessarily whet -10 the nallienium, we must surely feel that these Stern days call for total a stinence from some things and temperance in all things, What Russia has done with her vodka and Pramie with her abalothe, we in Canada can do with the saloons that imperil our youth and lead some to ap untimely grave. All that is needed is the united effort not of a narrow bigo- try, but of a national self-respect and an energetic Christian' sentiment to sweep this curse awa,y." fillips of Comity supply the balaoce of mash necessary.

H. McClinton, Secretary 'Huron Poultry Association, asking for grant. Provincial Treasurer advising Coun- cil of the mill Provincial tax to be levied on the equalized assessment. School Inspectors Field and Tom asking increase in allowance for travelling expenses from 5850 to $450, on account of increased cost of hotel bills since day of 51 hotels and on ac- count of war tax making postage higher. They spent 125 days in the year travelling. Secretary of Provincial Winter Fair advising date of Fair, Dec. 4 to 9, and asking for a grant. Harriston High School enclosing ac- count of 551 for maintenance of County of Huron pupils. Inspector Bullard reporting the elec- trical equipment at the Jail satisfac- tory. County of Oxford asking eo-opera- Mon in seeking legislation fixing muni- cipal elections every second year, as one year was not enough for council- lor to show what he could do or for people to judge his ability. County of Welland asking co-opera- tion in having license fee for foreign automobiles reduced one-half. Premier W. H. Hearst with refer- ence to Hydro-iadittla in Huron Coun- ty. 0ounLy seemed to oecupy unique position, be wrote, and probably re- quired special legislation to cover its case. Council to draft out what special legislation it required and be would take up the matter. Miss Mary Duff, Secretary Bluevale Literary, Social and Debating Society, with copy of a resolution adopted by the Socrety;that time had come for ap- pointment of an Agricultural Repre- sentative for County, A. Porter, Treasurer, of Patriot- ic fund, showing payments for the County, with names and particulars, of 53,463,86 during 5 months ending May 15th. At the start there were 12 names on the roll, and last month 39 with total payments of 5899. Pay- ments all came from headquarters at Ottawa, nn money raised locally being distributed locally. Payments by months being $270.60, 5729.43, 5081.93, 5883 and $899. Count y Jailer reported 4 inmates in the Jail and made requisition for 50 feat of hose, also a request for an elec- tric stove for Mrs. Gviffin, County Auditors reporting Treas- urer's books and hond all right. Re- ceipts hot year 5184,083.19, expendi- tures 5184,092 28, overdraft 59.07, Executive Oommittee recommended on account of extra expenditure this year no actino he taken to appoint- ment of a District Agricultural Repre- sentative ; 00 6011011 be taken to have auto licenees reduced ; that memorial to have municipal elections once in 2 years be accepted ; no actioh with re- ference to special legislation govern. Ing Hydro radials in this County un- til report of the Hydro commission is received ; that no action be taken with reference to the memorial asking for the privileges for nnunicipalitiee of assessing mineral rights. This was adopted. A. touch of humor was supplied to the Council proceedings in the follow, - Ing motion t Moved by J. A. Stewart, ecteonded by 0, olein that a split be THURSDAY of next week will be poll. ing day in Perth Co. on the ,Canada Temperance Act, with Sheriff Magwood as Returning officer. The tactics of the antis are much the same as those followed in past campaigns and most of them if seriously considered for s few minutes, would show their flimsiness and selfishness. Surely ample proof has been afforded. of the danger of the traffic to the Nation in the past year by the action of Russia, France and Great Britain. Perth Co. swinging into line would make it easier for the maintenance of law in Huron Co. in the broadening of "the dry" zone. As Ear as enforce- ment is concerned it will depend much on the people. The law perhaps could be improved in some particulars but if a goodly body of the electorate stand be- hind the strict observance and see that the officials do their duty there will not be much room for complaint. We have not seen an intoxicated man on the streets of Brussels for the past 6 months arida there are violations of the law they are done very quietly and will be snapped as soon as the proof is at hand. We noticed a handle was being made ot the resignation of Inspector Johnston in Centre Huron but the story would have been spoiled it the fact had also been Stated that it was done to accept a more lucrative appointment at the hands of the Dominion government. Lloyd George says the liquor traffic is a greater menace to the British Empire at the present time than the German and Aus- trian armies, If that is a correct state- ment the duty of every loyal subject in Perth Co., is to give it a death blow on the a4th by a cordial and consistent support and when carried continuing to roll the old chariot along in the best in- terests of the home and community. There's a great opportunity for a hearty rallying of the young men who have the franchise.
