that • haage'i%u , sktae'thab 'L
have bees made a vier to
arcing and conspleting the syste��yy
atthentim ottha ginandeslgn
tion, but which have since been r
!Mead, an attempt was made, ,by b
law, to make each ,township pay
all expenditures within the to
Thie by-law was found to be illeg
and was repealed, but nevertheless
understanding continued to exist t
the expenditures within each town*
were overate entirely from those
other townships, in spite of the. fac
that the eyatem was operating as
county system.
A system whereby the expenditur
in each township, aside from the go
ernment •grant, would be met by th
township, is, on the whole, very u
fair for the following reasons:
1.—Provincial highways .pae
through few townshipa and the count
portion must be met by the county.
2.—d'mvincial county roads are u
equally distributed so that some town_
scrips have no roads on which more
than 40 per cent. grant is paid.
3. Te Department of Highways
gives more a'tten'tion do petitions for
increased mileage, grants, etc., 'if
they know that the whole county is
behind the petition and that it is not
for the sole benefit of a segregated
community.
4. ---The interest of the tow -ns in the
county system is not so readily de-
termined.
5.---Practioaily all of the main roads
of the county were originally buult
and maintained by the county, the
councillors of those times recognizing
the interest which each municipality
had in the roade of other m•unieipali-
ties, and the automobile has increas-
ed this interest very considerably.
6. —The administration of the work
s done by the county council, having
n mind the welfare of the county and
not specially that of the individual
l u nisi palitios. ,
The special report on equalization
ubmitted last January was based on
he direction from the council and
on what the council expected, and not
'together on what the members of
he committee thought most proper.
The special levies proposed in that
•sport were distributed over a period
f years so that ample opportunity
-sold be given to modify it if found
dvisable.
To my mind the only proper basis
er equalizing County Road expendi-
lres is to have an equal ,proportion
f main roads in each township desig-
nated and equally well maintained.
.his condition exists and our re-
ords .show that it is equally costly
maintain roads in all townships.
ach township enjoy+. the advantages
f .good main roads in other town-
ies and if it so happens that, dur-
g a certain time, the construction
a bridge or other cause makes it
eeessary to spend a little more in
e township than another, the lib-
el Government grants and the fact
at it is apt to happen in any town-
ie, make this condition very easy
'bear until the expenditures equal -
themselves. I would therefore re-
mmend that further consideration
given this matter before special
les are raised.
The annual returns to the Depart-
ent of Public Highways of the ex-
nditures on our County Road Sys -
in may be summarized as follows:

(During the summer it is noted that
the roads become worn and rutted
during prolonged dry apelia. The
only remedy for this condition is
prompt attention to dragging where
necessary after every rain. Our
dragging costs for 1921 were $1,369,96
plus $8,392,19=$4,76216, and it is
believed that to increase this amount

a big improvement to the roads. --,Roy

WHY ENVY THEM?
Why envy the nobleman, back in
ancient Egypt or Bagdad with thirty
slaves toiling fur him?
He had swift -running slaves bring
him fish from the ocean and bird
tongues from the mountains.
To -day, with a few coins, you can
get a tin can of shrimp brought from
Japan, a package of dates from Syria,
a bag of nuts from Brazil; sardines
from Norway.
Your slaves --machinery and power
--bring them.
For a few cents you catty buy en-
ough matches to start 1,000 fires.
When the ancient nobleman's fire was
doused by the rain, he shivered in the
cold until slaves made a blaze by
friction or brought firebrands from
afar.
Plenty of old settlers, now Living,
can recall the days before matches,
when they ran a mile from the near-
est neighbors, with a shovelful of
blazing coals.
Your real wealth is measured, not
in money, but in the number of things
you obtain to eat and wear, the ease
with which you get them, the com-
forts and conveniences of your 'home,
methods of transportation and amuse-
ment.
It is only a few centuries since
even the richest kings had no sewers,
running water, rapid transportation,
or any of the commonplace things
that brighten the lives of all to -day.
Each year adds to our comforts
and conveniences.
BEETLES GNAW THROUGH
LEAD CABLES.
A tiny beetle, smaller than a lady-
bug, is causing much damage to tele-
phone cables in California, reports
Popular Science, by gnawing tunnels
through the protective lead covering
of the cables. The rain -water pene-
trates to the wires inclosed in the
lead tubing and causes short-circuits.
No effective method of combatting
these destructive beetl`e's .has as yet
been devised and the telephone com-
panies have sent an urgent appeal
for aid to the entomological bureau
of the Department of Agriculture, in
Washington, D. C.
We have frequently heard J. J.
Morrison alluded to as "the soul of
the U. F. O. movement"; now Agnes
McPhail, M.P., calls him "that com-
mon old soul with a bald head," So
the U. F. O. secretary is sufficiently
identified,—Hamilton Herald.
