Men nowadays, she said, didn't even take the trouble to do the wooing, they simply sat back and let the girls run after them. How about it, girls? As a matter of fact men do seem to be having things coating their way pretty well, it used to be that fathers were responsible for the sup- port of their daughters until they :tarried, when their husbands took site is mueh more independent un- married. But there does not seen to be any indication that women have decided to pass up marriage, when it is offerers to thein in attractive form. But if, as the writer above quoted says, men are not even taking the trouble to do the wooing, and I'm a- fraid I have seen sone indications of it, girls are throwing away their chief charm. - There never was a time when girls could be so indepen- dent and if they wished to do so they could :lake tha, young men "the the Mark," as never before.

Carried, Legislative- Committee The legislative eomrpittee report, as follows, was adopted:.," We believe that all provincial and any other offices maintained in this county from which the Bounty de- rives no revenue .should be maintain- ed as to equipment, stationery, tele- phoning, etc., other than by , this county, and we recommend that the authorities at Toronto be petitioned by the warden and clerk to pass leg- islation to this effectas we are of the opinion that if the council pro- vide the office, light, heating and caretaking that parties using these offiees or their employers should pay the upkeep of the same. We recommend that the legisla- tion by which the cost of voters' lists used in legislative elections only is charged to local municipalities. should bo repealed as these lists are never used by and are of no use in municipal eleteions. Mae recommend better legislation be asked for protecting the taxpay- ers an the ease of hospitals, charit- able'institutions and indigents than at present exists, 'as the counties with the House of Refuge, Children's Shelter and Mothers' Allowance Act and Old Age Pensions are very much overburdened with these extra taxes and also that these acts be made much more understandable in their applications. Asked to Bear Costs We recommend also that in re-' garcl to delinquent children, commit- ted to reformatories, the parents be compelled to bear the costs where possible and that in any event change of residence of the parents or guardian should necessitate change of responsibility for playing tate cost of their matntenance, that is if a delinquent child is commit- ted, from Huron County and the par- ents or guardians remove to anoth- er county, the latter county should be charged for maintenance in the same manner as obtains in tine Moth- ers' Allowance Mt. We recommend that laws now ob- solete or which have become emn- bersome be repealed such as: (a) Clauses of the Police Village Act, re declaring the election carry, ink the ballot box to the county clerk instead of the nearest township clerk. (b) The method of sending out the school grants to county treasur- er instead of the local treasurers. Since the government has taken charge of the school inspeetors the law re school payments should also IX changed as the present method involves a great deal of unnecessary official work and responsibility, The finance connnittee reported: We recommend that all accounts preferred against the county should be paid out on the order of the war- den in 'writing except those provided by statute, and even then should be submitted to him. Carried. We are of the opinion and recom- ntend that the police magistrate' ac- counts should be audited by the comity auditors for criminal jus- tice :t oeutits and s report made to this council. This has been sugges- ted and requested by Pollee Niagis• trate Reid. tearried. We would also recenrnrend that the rate for county road purposes be 1 i-10 mills op the dollar and we would strongly urge the Good Roads Cottmnission to keep within the es- timates, Canted, May Put Snow Plow It was moved by Reeves J. ala Eckert and W. H. Sweitzer that e snow plow be put on the roads in the spring, thereby saving the roads. This was referred to the Good Roads Commission. A motion by Reeves L. xl. Rader and W. J.
