Of the many problems to 'be solved
by the Ferguson Government, per-
haps }Ion, G. S Henry has the chief.
He is heir to the reckless extrava-
gance of Mr. Biggs. In nearly every
+county of Ontario, as in Huron, lead-
ing roads were torn up in sections
and perfectly good ,roads destroyed
that had been thirty. or forty years in
the makng, for a new foundation that
'in many cases cost $60,060 a mile,
whereas by proper use of the old
.foundation a better road could be
made for $10,000. This foolish ex-
penditure has been going on for three
years on the Huron :road and the
public have been forced to make de-
tours over almost impassable roads,

to have lost sight entirely of the value

favor of good roads they will not
stand for foolish extravagance. 1'he
•election made that dear. The extra-
vagance of Mr. Biggs was the great-
est deciding question at that time.
Roads were not only tont up, but wi-
dened to eighty-six feet, which only
served to make more room for weeds
to grow. Hon. Mr. Henry's duty,
- which he seems to realize. is to take
stock of the whole system and curb
extravagance. Many of the new
members are awake to this fact and
no doubt will make themselves heard.
Strict business should take the place
of past neglect. The new minister
can save millions, and yet give bet-
ter roads, and win the confidence of
the people, and we believe he will.

As a consequence, their teeth were
not •examined, their tonsils .were not
investigated, • their eyes were not
tested, their adenoids, if they -had any,
were left undisturbed, The appendix
was as much a .mystery to the doctors
of those days as it is to the doctors
of to -day. They regarded it as an
organ without a function, and which
was neither, harmful or beneficial.
And so our poor grandparents .had to
worry along through life, from the
cradle to the grave with their aden-
oids, their appendixes and their ton-
sils.
And then how sadly neglected was
the social nature of our grandparents
in their childhood days when the
various churches did not think it ab-
solutely necessary to have their young
people organized into societies, which
took them away from home in the
evenings. Poor things! they had no
other resource'but to find their rich-
est, dearest treasure in books, friends,
music, polished leisure.
How pitiable was their condition as
compared with that of the young
people of to -day.

took part in a musical programme,
During the return by auto in the
"wee sma' hours o' the morn," a
dense fog prevailed. The driver went
very slowly. Somehow both fell
asleep but suddenly were brought to
their senses as the auto started to go
into a ditch. With strenuous efforts,
they managed to get on solid ground
again. On the trip to the city they
counted three deserted autos resting
in this same ditch. The 4th of July
brought disappointment to Walter W.
Hoover a native son of .Duluth, and
world famed oarsman, who in 1922,
at Henley-on-Thames, England, cap-
tured the Diamond Sculls and
brought this famll'us ,trophy home.
He was eliminated from the
1923 race by H. S. Gollan. the deaf
and dumb English oarsman, who on
the 6th also eliminated Hilton Bel -
yea the celebrated Canadian sculler,
and the former also on the 5th, had
meted the same fate to the Boston
oarsman, Russel Codman, Jr.
When the news was flashed across
the ocean of Hoover's defeat and his
wife here heard of it, she broke down
and the big tears rolled down her
cheeks. One of his oars struck a log
and splintered it, otherwise he would
have from Gollan on the •4th.
Speaking of sculling matches' re-
minds me if the long ago in the very
last of the 70's, when in company
with the late Erwin Johnstone, of the
9th concession of McKillop, and the
late Hugh Mowbray, formerly of the
8th concession, and other members
of their households, we took in a July
12th excursion to Toronto. When
there, we crossed by ferry to Ed.
Hanlon's hotel, then the home of Ed.
Hanlon, the famous Canadian oars-
man, and champibn for a time of the
world. His fame and prowess great-
ly advertised Canada in his day. On
this excursion trip, Mr. and hire.
Mowbray and I visited the Toronto
Mail Bldg., where we were courte-
ously received and shown around, and
escorted to the top of its high tower,
where we had a splendid view•of the
city and on that day the placid waters
of Lake Ontario for miles away. This
was a long, long time ago, and ohl
the changes since, to all of those
who participated in that 12th of July.

It was with sincere regret I read
Of the death of Miss Kate Cowan,
and to her brothers, sisters, relatives
and friends I tender my sympathy in
this their hour of deep sorrow. In
her removal by death, a splendid wo-
man has gone from all earthly scenes
one who
whilst in`t '
his life to the
hest of her ability faithfully did her
duty to her God and fellow beings.
She has been summoned home by
her Heavenly Master to receive her
glorious and eternal reward in the
Heavenly mansions of the skies. Her
teaching to live good and useful
lives has been and was indelibly im-
pressed upon the future lives sof
many hundreds of her former pupils
and others.
Well do I remember that dear old
homestead on the.sixth concession
where she was born, grew up from
girlhood to woman's sphere and em-
barked out in life 'as a successful
school teacher, and teaching in var-
ious parts of the fair Dominion of
Canada until recent years. Hun-
dreds of times, often as a barefooted
boy, I have visited her parents' hos-
piahle hone and kindly, was I treated
there. Again in sad memory I see
the bridge on the concession over
the Little Maitland' River and close
to their entrance gate the waters of
that stream flowing through the old
homestead, the comfortable home,

scenes of the long ago. Never again

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS
By W. H. T.
tT #$
Our poor grandfathers and grand-
mothers! When we think of the
handicaps under which they labored
in their childhood as compared with
the children. of to -day, we feel our
eyes moisten with tears of sympathy.
We fain woulii bring them back to
earth that they might live their lives
over again, from childhood on, and
have the benefit of the privileges and
advantageswhich vhtc the modern child
enjoys.
And yet we must admit that they
cut quite as respectable figure in the
world as does the supposedly more
fortunate child of the present age.
They grew up with good strong
healthy bodies. They lived to a good
old- age. They commanded our hon-
or by their deep and fervent piety,.
which was nurtured and strengthened
by daily prayer, and daily searching
of the Oracles Divine. They further
commanded our honor by their steel:
ing integrity and uprightness of char-
acter. And they commanded our re-
spect by their sound common sense,
and tee extent' and solidity of their
intellectual attainments. -
To begin with, as is common with
human beings, they were born young
and in the case of many of them,
their natal hour t was n
ofP reside
d over
by a learned M.D., but by a kindly
old lady, who performed the first nec-
essary offices for the wee animated
mite. Soon it was nestling in the
arms of its Joyful mother, and who
can imagine her thrill of ecstasy as
• she felt for the first time her first-
born's
rstborn's breath? Soon it was drawing
nourishment, not from a 'bottle, there
were few "bottle babies" in -those
days, but ,from nature's fount which
yields for the infant a better food'
than the most skilful chemist can
compound. The babies of those days
knew not the solace of 'the modern
baby's "comfort," neither did they
know the joy of riding in a perambu-
lator, Bat they grew and thrived
amazingly despite these drawbacks.
The years pass on. School age is
reached, The .boys and girls missed
the good of kindergarten training, for
the kindergarten and its methods are
of ater'da'te. The first thing learned
was the alphabet, and then words of
ewo and three letters, but this way of.
lvai•ning to read.has been superseded
•by'a way';that i5 thougb't to 'be better.
These children tiad the- natural in-
stinct for' play, and they; indulged in:

On July"16th, the sena'toral 'Hon in in the• State of Minnesota to
select a senator to fill the unexpired
term of the late Knute Nelson took
place. There were three :candidates
in the field, Gov. •Preus, of Minn.,
Republican; Magnus Johnson, Far-
mer -Labor., and Carley, Democrat, the
latter having the honor of getting
around20,00Q rotes and his name on
the ballot; Magnus Johnson has
swept ;the field probably with around
90,000 ahead of Gov. Preus. Probable
total, vote of 540,000. It certainly was
a surprise and a terriffc blow to the
Republican forces. The result goes
to show great dissatisfaction with
the present state of affairs. t -low
there is one thing and only too evi-
dent, The farmer, the honest tiller
of the soil and back bone of this
country is not getting a square deal.
The price he receives for his grains
and other produce often does not pay
for growing the same. Also the
same only' too often .can be said of
his hogs, cattle and sheep and such
like, but when all of these are turn-
ed into the manufactured product and
sold to the ultimate consumer, a dif-
ferent tale is told and a public's pock-
et book is outrageously skinned
thanks to so many profiteering hat -
pies of middlemen. The latter ought
to be eliminated as much as possible,
so ihe•fartner could receive more for
what .he has to sell and, the ultimate
consumer pay less. The farmers'
vote went tremendously for Magnus
Johnson. They thought: well, condi-
tions can't be any worse now, even if
he is elected and there might be a
chance they would be better. A case
of any port in a case of such o digsat-
• r the future may

F front
the frying pan into the fire. Magnus
Johnson is a native born son of
Sweden with a powerful voice and it
is claimed butchers the English lan-
guage at times. He is a fanner, owns
land and works on the same. He is
no dude in dressing and does not be-
lieve in stiff collars'. As a farmer he
remedy might
tog

g
or could be applied to help the pres-
ent unsatisfactory conditions and
lessen their grievances, if he only
proves a capable senator. But it is
claimed he belongs to the radical el-
ntent of the Senator Bob LaFollette
stripe of Wis., also Senator Brook -
hart of Iowa and Senator Henrik
Shipstead. of Minn., and others of
like calibre. This class of men look-
ed with disfavor and even showed re-
sentment and disloyalty upon this
country's entrance into the late
world war, to assist the Allies to de-
feat Kaiserdom and Prussian milit-
arism in its barbarious efforts to
gain world domination. Needless to
say, Magnus Johnson got every ra-
dical vote in Minnesota.

LO GAN.
Dies from Effects of Accident. —
William Lawrence, aged eighty-five
years. died on Saturday afternoon
from the effects of an accident when
a horse rolled on him in the morning
at the farm of his son, Henry Law-
rence, of Logan, At the same time a
team of horses. belonging to Mr,
Henry Lawrence, was struck by a
train at a level crossing on the Huron
highway, about three and a half
miles east of Mitchell. Both horses
were killed and the driver, Charles
Workman, narrowly escaped death.
Mr. Lawrence was helping his sat,
Mr. Henry Lawrence, to get his hay
into the barn. While driving the
horse, ;the brute choked white a load
was being hoisted up into the mow.
Mr. Lawrence could not get out of
the way of the rope and he ran down
the embankment of the drive way
into the barn and when, nearing the
bottom he stumbled and fell and the
horse, which had fallen, also rolled
down the embankment and over Mr,
Lawrence before he could get out of
the way.
Dr. Hall was called, but he was so
badly crushed that medical aid was of
no avail. The deceased had been a
resident of Logan for fifty-one years
and was one of the most industrious
men who had ever lived in this com-
munity, He had always enjoyed the
best of health, worked hard right' up
to the very last and,was shocking up
fray in the field the night- before he
met his death. He could drive a team
of horses the coldest days in winter
without wearing'an overcoat or a pair
of mitts. He was. an Anglican in re-
ligion. Mrs. Lawrence died some
years ago and two sons and three
daughters survive: George, Henry,
Y,
and Mrs. James Williams, of Logan;
and Misses Nellie and Alice at home.
The funeral, which took place from
the family home Monday afternoon to
Trinity church cemetery was a very
large one.
Horses Killed.—During the same
hour in which the accident befell the
late William Lawrence; a team of
horses belonging to his son,Mr
g g
Henry Lawrence, were killed. por-
tion of the highway' between Stratford
and Mitchell, three and a half miles
east of the town is being' built and
men and teams Were busy unloading
and drawing a car of crushed stone
which was standing on a siding near
the main track and a young marl by
the name of Charles Workman was
doing the teaming for. Mr, Henry

track with his load when the morning
express train came along and when
the animals were struck one of them
was thrown over fifty feet and the
other about thirty feet, the wagon

and front wheels 'were smashed' and

There is one distinctive difference
between the system of long-terut
loans and the' system or short-term
loans recently 'inaugurated in this
Province. Those who hate followed
the preceding articles will have ob-
served that long -terra loans are made.
direct by the Agricultural Develop-
ment Board, 6 Queen's Park, To-
ronto, In contrast to this, no short-
term loans are made by the Board,
but are made solely through local
associations organized for this
purpose.
Short. Time Credits Described.
The reason for this-dilterenee in
method of operation lies in the differ -
fence in the nature of the security
and the nature of the loan. In the
matter of long-term .loans, the secur-
ity is a first mortgage on land, and
the personality of the borrower,
while important, is secondary.. In
the short-term leans, the security is
a note or lien on chattels, and the
personality of the borrower, and his
i
reputation in the community, s one
of the, big determining factors. Then,
10o, the loan is usually a small one.
With $2,000 as the maximum, the
average loan will no doubt be a good.
deal under $1,000. It would, there-
fore, be physically impossible for any
central office to grant and supervise
loans in all the different sections of
the Province for
small amounts. 8. No
other system of granting short-term
loans on personal or chattel security
by a central office for a whole Pro-
vince is in existence. Such loans may,
however, be granted with reasonable
safety by local committees familiar
with all the circumstances.
Not So Difficult.
Accordingly, a plan of organiz-
ation of local farm loan associations
has been devised, and this Is not
so difficult as might at first appear.
A membership of thirty is 'required,
and each member must take one
share of stock, value $100, and make
a payment of 10 per cent., or $10.
This stock represents capital, and is
held In reserve, There le little like-
lihood of any farther payment ever
being required on capital account,
After the necessary membership is
signed up, the township council and
the Government are each asked to
appoint two directors, and subscribe
for one-half the amount of stook
subscribed by local members; this tc
be added to the reserve. When these
directors hate been appointed, the
aseoetatfon elects a president, vice-
president and one director. These
officers, with the two Government
directors and the two township di-
rectors, conatitute a board of seven,
which, thereafter, looks after the
business of the association. A sec-
retary -treasurer is appointed, and he
is the only paid officer pernnitted.
When the association is thus formed
it continues from year to year with
the usual annual election of officers,
and applications for loans can then
be made from time'to time to the
secretary -treasurer, who will arrange
'to have them considered by the di-
rectors.
In practice, it will probably be
found desirable to hare meetings at
stated periods for the consideration
of the loans..In this way, loans may
be passed without any inconvenience
either to the borrower or to the
directors.
Associations Already Formed.
Although this plan has been be-
fore the farmers of the Province for
only a few month, ten associations
have been formed, and are doing
business, while two others have been
formed, but have not yet passed on
loans. Loans granted 'range from
8136 to 81,800, in individual oases,
and are for all manner of purposes
in connection with farm work. They
are repayable at the end of the year
with interest ,at 61,6 per cent., but, of
course, may be renewed for another
year it the director's feel that sueh
renewal is justified:
Each applicant submits to the ae-
socfation a detailed statement of his
assets and liabilities, and also signs
a prom eitory note. The application
is then endorsed by 'the president
and secretary of the association and
sent in to the Board for approval
and for issuing of cheque to cover
the total amount loaned to an asso-
otation. While, therefore, the sub-
-jest le approached from the stand-
point of helping the Than on the land
la carrying out his farming opera-
tions, It will be seen that due regard
le paid , to the queetlou of security,
and if reasonable discretion is exer-
cised there is no- reason why auy'of
the money so loaned should go astray.
Well Distributed.
The number oi' associations now
doing businessis regarded as a very
satisfactory start, ' With the ' new
system It was not expected that
such associations would spring up in
a night all over the Province, nor
was it regarded as desirable that
such should occur. The associations
now in existence are well scattered
over the province. The Board of
Directors selected includes some of
the very best farmers in the country.
Their interest in the matter and
their public-spirited efforts to assist
their neighbors in the matter of fin-
ance gives the associations organized
a good standing in their respective
communities.
The 'future of this plaint is now in
the hands of the farmers themselves.
It was placed on the Statute; Book
as an alternative system of merit in
itself, and of .value as an alternative
where.other agencies were found in-
adequate. or :unsatisfactory.
