It has been agreed to advocate leg-
islation providing that all vehicles us-
ing the Highways at night shall car-
ry Tights. This should not require
to be advocated. It is so evidently
fair, and' indeed necessary, that the
Legislature should take it up, even if
the Government does not introduce a
bill,. It has been far too long delay-
ed a:Iready. A person driving a horse
and buggy without lights does not re-
alize the danger he is in. from being
struck by a motorist. All automo-
bile drivers know that many a time
they have driven very close to a
horse and rig, which they did not see
until they were up to it, whereas, a
couple of sma:li lights on each side o
the buggy would have made the au-
toist sure of seeing the vehicle and
would thus have assured his turning
out.

phone Association, at 'tile concluding
session of its annual convntion held

lution instructing the executive to

joint board to deal with Telephone
matters in the province. '- he execu-
tive will also -Consider the appoint-
ment of a field man. for all Ontario
Companies to assist local telephone
systems in the administration of their
affairs. It was . suggested that ,.the
membership fees in the association
be "increased to meet the salary and
expenses of the field pian.
T. H. Ashley, of the Bell Telephone
Company,said that co-operation
was needed among the. Ontario tele-
phoile systems, including his own
company, so that. much useless over-
lapping would be eliminated. One
of the obstacles to telephon4 compan-
ies, he said, was "free service" when
hundreds of people used their neigh -
bars' phones.
Officers for the ensuing year were
elected‘as follows: Honorary Presi-
dent; F. E, Webster; Greemore; Presi-
dent, J. M. Govenlock, Seaforth;
Vice -President, J. R. Forbes, Water -
down; Secretary, A. Hoover, Green
River; Treasurer, F. D. McKay, Tor-
onto. Anson Groh, Preston, was ad-
ded to the executive and the special
committee 6n uniform bookkeeping,
was appointed as follows J J. Hunt=
er, Kincardine A. D. Bruce, Union-
ville; Anson Groh, Preston; Robert
Sample, Perth and M. A. Gee, ::Wheat-
