COMPENSATION COSTS
La the half year ending June 80,
the Workmen's Compensation Board.
awarded benefits amounting to
$8,991,646.78, of which $681,482.39
was for medical aid. The total
awards for the half year are nearly`
half a million dollarshigher than
for the same period in 1928,
There was 41,515 accidents includ-
ing 225 fatal cases reported to the
Compensation Board for the half
year, as compared with 35,202 for
the first half of 1928 with 276 fatal-
ities. ,The -drop in fatal cases is im-
portant but the increase of over one
thousand accidents per month in the
first six months of 1929 is of vital
importance to industry.
•Caxmnenting on these figures, R.
B. Morley, general manager, Indus-
trial Accident Prevention Associa-
tions, states that it is evident exe-
cutives generally; whether represent-
ing industries included in the mem-
bership of the Associations, or out-
side, must give an increasing amount
of attention to accident prevention
work. The Executive Committee' of
the Associations have planned a more
intensive campaign for the balance
of 1929 and have, lately admitted the
Construction Safety Association to.

effort put forth by the construction
industries to lower their bad record
of the past several -years,

SPORTSMANSHIP
Last week, we read, several thous-
and horse -race devotees, enraged at
what they considered a "raw deal,"
rioted at the Windsor race track and
assaulted the starter; apparently in
the belief that he was one of the
judges. The same week, we observe
members of a touring Welsh foot-
ball team, playing in Hamilton, were
attacked by hundreds of spectators
who invaded the playing pitch and
so injured one ofthe players that
he had to be carried from the field.
More pleasing reading is the press
comment on the deportment • of the
Englishathletics from the Univer-
sities of Oxford and Cambridge who
competed at. the Hamilton track and
field moot on Saturday. The unas-
suming manner of the visiting team
is noted. "There was an absolute
lack of parading or `grand -standing'.
so often seen`. at athletic meets where
stars of international reputation are
competing::' "At the close of each
event, after the winner had stood on
the dais for the flag-waving and
had received his prize, he, immediat-
ely returned to the bench reserved
for his team, and when they had con
cluded their -performances for the
day the athletes repaired to the dres-
sing -room,' donned , . their . street
clothes, and came back to 'the bench
to watch the remainder of the pro-
gramme. Their modest 'manner in
victory and -their sportsmanship in
aeknowiedging" defeat were pleasing-
ly noticeable throughout the after-
noon." Sport, apparently, is another
field in which we might well take our,
cue from the English.—Farmer's

CROP REPORT
From a. report gathered by the
Bank of Montreal last week, the
following item is taken:
Grain crops throughout the Prairie
Provinces • with the exception of
Southern Alberta and Northern and
Southwestern areas in Saskatchewan
have been badly damaged through
drought and, there seems little doubt
that the West Will harvest crops that
will be much below the average. In
Quebec crops generally continue to
make satisfactory progress. with i-
deal weather prevailing. In Ontario
warm weather and intermittent show-
ers have greatly benefited all crops
during the past week, and in, general
yields up to average are in prospect.
In the Maritime Provinces scattered
showers providing sufficient mois-
tore.and warns weather have helped
all crops. In British Columbia the
crop situation generally is favour-
able.
THE. PRICE TOO GREAT:
The editor of the Stratford Beacon -
Herald, who has been touring Europe
had the following to say in a letter
written in Berlin, Germany:
"My conclusion may be wrong, but
it does seem that too great a price
has been and is being paid for the
militatism of central, Europe. There
is only one place to get this money
and that is. by wringing it out of the
people.
Men with whom- I have talked
t'ind it hard to understand that
there is a border between Canada
and United States Ionger -than the
distance across the Atlantic ocean,
without a gun or a fort. All these
nations have been steeped and
`stewed in militarism. Miles of the
load over which I traveled this
morning, an extension of Under den
Linden, were paved so that it would
stand the movement of heavy ar-
tillery in ease of a revolution in
Berlin. They have paid, they . are
paying, and they will be paying for
years to come, an enormous price
for their distrust and suspicion one
of another. Everyone with whom
I have talked complains bitterly of
the enormity of their present tax-
ation, and the figures they mention
convince fine that I should forfeit
that right and privilege of every
Canadian taxpayer -thinking he. is
being unmercifully gouged by the
collector of taxation."
GODERIGH: Mr. Victor Newell'
of Detroit, now in: insurance business
made a flying' visit in Goderich and
renewed acquaintances there and in;
the vicinity. Miss Ruth Curwen is.
spending ten days with relatives at.
Detroit.
BRUSSELS: Another of the old-
time family 'physicians and counsel-
ors that for many decades were the
principal figures in both urban and
rural centres throughout Ontario,
has been 'removed by the -death last
Thursday of WHlliain Graham; 15 Al-
hambra, Ave., Toronto, formerly of,
Brussels in his 91st year.'" The de-
ceased man was born in Edinburgh,
Scotland, in 1833, the year :following
the accession of the late Queen Vic-
toria. He came to Canada at the age
of 12 years with his family, who
settled in Huron Co near Clinton.
He was educated at Goderich gram-
mar school and at Toronto Univer-
sity, graduating in medicine, taking
Post graduate courses in New York
and at the Royal College of Surgeons
London, England. He commenced
and continued in active practice 18
Brussels for 50 years. Then" he re-
moved to Toronto and practised for
a short period before retiring. In
Brussels he took active interest in
the Presbyterian church and all its
work, also in public affairs. In To-
ronto he attended Erskine United
Church. His wife predeceased him
by about two and a half years. One
brother in Scotland, a sister, Miss
Jennie Graham in San Diego, Cal.,
one nephew, Andrew Graham, of
Stratford, and a niece, Miss Florence
Foss, Toronto, survive. The body•
was brought to Brussels on Saturday
on the noon train, and burial was
made in Brussels cemetery. The
pallbearers were: -F. Hunter, Jas.
McFadzean, F. R. Smith Dr. T. T.
McRae, A. C. Backer and J. L. Herr.
Rev. A. W. Barker, pastor of the.
United Church, conducted the service
at the cemetery. The floral tributes.
were many and beautiful. Many at-
tended the last service to a well-
known and respected citizen of Brus-
sels.
WALTON': One afternoon last
week while Kathleen Farquharson,
daughter of Mr, and Mrs. William
Farquharson, was hurrying honk
from the village she was knocked
down by a car driven by Lorne Toll.
Evidently Mr. Toll did not see the lit-
tle tot running along the side of the
road until it was too late. After hit-•
ting the child the car ran into the
fence. Though not seriously injur-
ed ICathleen received some bad cuts
and bruises.
