the I•Iouse c'onstnittee. It will be late
in the evening, however, and,discus-,
sion .may not cone before Wed-
nesday. It is announced that in the
province the 'following changes are
to be made;
Of the three ridings of•Fron'tenac,
Lennox and Addington, Lennox is to
be dropped, half going into each of,
she other two; the two Durbatns will
be merged and also the Northmnber-
lands. In. the west, the two Norfoiks
will 'become o'qe, and one each of the
Hurons, Bruces and Wellingtons
disappears. It 'has not been decided
• whether 'Center Simcoe, represented
byCol. Dougal Carmichael, is to dis-
apear, The Middlesex situation has
not been dealt 'with. In the several
Western Ontario counties where
three ridings are being reduced to
two, boundaries 'off ' the ex'is'ting 'fed-
eral constituencies will be followed,
in a general way, Thus, in Huron,
Goderich is to go into 'the north as
for federal purposes, and Clinton and
Seaforth into the south riding. With
the disappearance of Center Bruce
that county will be divided approxi-
mately in the middle.

the (minutes of the March meeting,
g,
the secretary dealt with the cor-
respondence, following which Mr. S.
F. Carron gave a very interesting
talk on the Possibilities of Huron
County, a
Mr, Carron stated that although
comparative stranger in the county,
he was beginning to get better ac-
gnainted and was pleased to be able
to say he belonged to 'Huron County.
The speaker intimated that Huron
was a county of many possibilities
if fully developed and he made a
few 'suggestions in which Huron
might ''specialize. He also remarked
that Oxford county 'had shade itself
famous for dairy ca't'tle. feel
county for alfalfa and clover seeds,
Kent and Essex for seed corn. In
conclusion Mr, Carron. hoped to see
Huron excel in some particular fine
of agriculture.
Following Mr. Carron, Mr. Jas,
Love gave an address nit the tre-
mendous extravagance in 'the civil
service, pointing out where many
civil servants only work very short
hours but -receive large salaries.
Many of those employed in the
civil service are not capa'bleof giving
100 per cent. efficiency as younger
officers might. Mr. Love, in order
to substantiate his statements, quoted
several paragraphs froth Grattan
O'Learys second letter on the civil
service. The comments on Mr.
Loves address showed that it was
thought some saving could 'be done in
the civil service, but just where to
start seemed to be the difficulty.
Mr. W. V. Jefferson opened
pointing
up
theiscussion on the egg -pool,
out the advantage of pooling 'the
eggs in the early summer months
and having then sold but ofcold
storage when egg .prices are
•higher in the 'winter. Mr. Jefferson
stated that last year's eggs ran about
13 cents a dozen snore than when
they were pooled in the spring.

Mr.Forrest spoke
cal Standing," snaking some very
clear and 'concise remarks which were
much appreciated, pointing out how
differences might easily occur. He
also conunented on the govern-
ment's endeavor to reduce rail and
water freight rates,
Mr. J. M. Eckert made a few re-
marks on some vital political issues,
but as it was getting tate, he sug-
gested that the issue be dealt with
at the next meeting. Mr. Dorrance
and Mr, Turnbull endorsed
the view
and it was decided to discuss the
the work of the Progressive party at
the May meeting,
Mr. Jefferson spoke on .behalf of
the programme committee and said
he was glad to find that so many
were 'twilling to join the discussions
and complimented those who did on
the very brief and concise manner in
which they expressed 'their views..
'The meeting' adjourned to meet
again in May.

We cannot understand why it's nec-
essary for any society to be feeding
hundreds of young lien in our cities,
when there is so much demand for
men out in •the country, Instead of
feeding them, if they would -chase
them out to where they could earn an
honest living they would be doing
them a more charitable act in the end,
and also helping the overworiced far-
mer as well.
