GREATER responility for alert caution rests on the motorist using the highways now that the speed' limit has been raised. In every case speed must be governed by the circum- stances. The change in the law does not to the slightest extent relieve the motorist from "responsibility, for careless or reckless driving. Indeed, in this respect the faster move- ment of traffic on the highways will thrust upon drivers a greater_necessityfor caution. In villages, in heavy traffic, at cross roads or railway; crossings, where adults or children are using the highway, near schools, and at curves and bridges, care must be exer- cisedbytfe motorist in accordance with the circumstances.: Obedience to the law and courtesy to others is expected at -all times, • . The raising of the speed' limit in no way lessens thew necessity for caution. The change in- the law will not miti- gate the offense of recklessness or carelesrn* § on the part of any driver. Attention is particularly directed to the provision for cancellation`of the car's license Which may follow subsequent.conviction for reckless driving. The safety of the highways trust be maintained. The Department hopes that motorists will realize this and will strive through carefuliiass and courtesy to continue to keep Ontario highways safe for all who use them. • Ontao D riepartment of Highways The, Hon.

The pries in full, twenty-four• lines, was published in this book but the -writer of these magazine articles claims, putting forth much proof, that the first twelve lines were' originally written by John Roulstone and given to Mary Sawyer the day after the school in- cident, and that little was known about it for several years, except in the immediate family, but that later - on the heroine. of the story told it on. many occasions and allowed bits of the yarn made from the first fleece of the lamb. to be •sold for charitable and patriotic purposes..„,This writer claims the -fist half of the poem is clearly written by a young, rather than a mature person, and points out the difference between it and the rat ter,l moralizing half. It' appears that Mrs. Hale never made an particular claim to 'this poem, any more than' including it in her book, but 'that her descendents since her death have tried to establish her claim to the authorship of:it all. It may be, of course, that no dispute. as to. authorship occurred during her' life 'time. ' The little school house in which the lamb incident is supposed to have taken place has been proved, remod- elled and repaired by Henry Ford and a tablet to Mary'Sawyer and. also one to John Roulstone have been placed in it.

The matter is argued' out in detail in two issues of the Independent and settled, at least to the satisfaction of the writer of same, that Mrs.' Hale .wrote only the latter Part of the poem, taking up the first twelve lines which had been written and in use several year's before her, book came Set of tart Very IA, °,il chic IsiC9 THIS special offer holds good until May 7th.

'The lamb grew so fond of her that it followed her all around and did "follow ,her to school one dray, which was against the rule," and the teacher had to\"turn it out," because, as Yen may imagine. it would "it made the children laugh school." insc o See lamb a to e the and pl y It seenns according to the story told by Mrs. Tyler of this early exper- ience, that she got the lamb into the b,nilding and under the seat, 'where it lay down 'quietly and was covered by a shawl, but that it jniliped up and followed her up to the teacher's desk when she went to recite, so then "the teacher turned it out." A young man, John Roulstone 'who was taking tuition with a clergyman in the neighborhood, called at the school the clay the lamb was there and he went home and the next morning rode over and handed the young Mary the DRAGGED BY CAR; FATALLY INJURED Dragged by a motor car as it backed down a steep hill, on the ap- preach to -her home on the Huron - Ashfield boundary, Mrs. Emile Mc- department. will be prepared to en- Lennan, aged about 25 years, re force the statute requiring all motor ceived injuries Monday morning car drivers to have permits.

MOTOR CAR DRIVERS TO REQUIRE PERMITS TORONTO July 1 is forecast by Hon. George S. Henry, Minister of Highways,, as the date by which his plan of issuing the permits in the middle of the year instead of the first of the year, when ,license markers are issued, has been recommended to Hon. Mr. Henry by his department offi- cials, who wish to distribute more evenly over the year the double work of issuing the motor car marker plate and the individual driver permits: • It is Stated by Hon. Mr. Henry that *Iter the permit law comes into force any person who has driven a car for six months will be eligible to receive a permit without examination. Any person who cannot thus ^qualify, how- ever, will be required to satisfy a Government examiner of his fitness to be behind a steering wheel. New car purchasers will also require to be ex- amined unless they have previously owhed machines and can thus qualify under the six -months' rule. The fee for the permits has not been determined upon, but it will probably be either 50 cents or $1..The'. permits are not to be 'a source of re- venue for the Government, but a means of control, and- persons found guilty of recklessness in operating, their machines will be liable to have -their permits suspended or canceled. !GODERICH: Owing to the fact that the new liquoract will' be placed.: in the hands of the Provincial police Inspector Fellow has received notice that his services will be dispensed with in that connection.
