Four utiles between Dun- gannon and Lucknow, just finished, has the appearance of a new, smooth, paved highway, and in great favoi with motorists. "It will take some years before we can put, the final stamp of approval on salt roads, but they ai'e infinitely better and safer than the old gravel road, and cost only p200 per mile," said County Engineer Roy Patterson when asked about it. The construction is simple, the highway is scarified, and a mixture of salt, clay and fine gravel rolled in. Last year 20 tons of salt to the mile was used: This year the ratio has been cut to 15 tons. The percentage of clay to gravel is six. The three- inch surface when used becomes as hard as stone and is dustless. Huron County, already proud of its toad system, and with an unlimited supply of salt available, is aiming and in a fair way to lead the province in the matter of good roads.

Solution of his disposal, at least for the sum - A CANADIAN WRITES TO LONDON EDITORS (A letter in the London Spectator) Sir: — Could anyone suggest to London editors that it would be a good idea for them to buy an atlas to which their staff writers could re- fer when mentioning places in`Can- ada? Particularly, this applies to the Tittles and Observer, two papers that have been taught to believe were infallible. Punch snakes fearful how- lers in its verse when'refetring to places outside England. Recently ethe Times had a photo-. graph of the Ring, when Prince of Wales, on horseback on his ranch near Manitoba"1 Now the King's ranch, as everyone knows, is in Al- berta; the next province eastward is Saskatchewan, and after that, six or seven hundred miles away, comes Manitoba. Believe it or not, there are quite a number of places between the "E.P. Ranch" and Manitoba! The Weekly Times had an editorial on Canadian Provincial Debts in which came the quite unpardonable words "....the every unsatisfactory budget before the Vancouver Legisla- ture." Don't they know, in London, the t a caplist of 'British Columbia a is Victoria, on. Vancouver Island? It is possible that geography even that of the empire, has been left out of the curriculum in English schools? I feel sure that the Times office has its radios, and telephones, and televis- ions, and cablegrams, and everything n to date—except o a Ido pmap.wish they would buy one. It would save a lot of bail feeling on this side. In the+Court and Personal column of the Observer I see a notice word- ecl as follows: "Sir Percy Vincent will visit Canada in August where he will be a guest of tate State of Van- couver." Now where and what is the State of Vancouver? We in Bei- tish Columbia know all too well what 'the state (with a small s) of Vancou- iver is just now but—the State? That lhas an American savour, we don't !grow States in Canada. Perhaps the editor meant Province? And why of :Vancouver? Please tell him this is a town. And now to cap all comes a really flagrant breach of Imperial diplo- macy. In the Times Weekly of April f9th is a photograph of Vancouver, captioned below, "Vancouver, the !capital of British Columbia"! But here words fail rte. Perhaps you inay be able to do, something labut ]t? — Yours truly. IH. Glynn -Ward, Treanna, Sidney, British Columbia.
