A oneeting of the Liberals of Sea - forth Will he held in the Town Hall on 1111enday evening, May 26th, at 8 Vane for the purpose of electing dele- gates to attend the Liberal Conven- tion in Hensall on Wednesday, May 20fh. A full attendance is earnestly re- quested. or in other words to consider them as having earning powers. So much for the earning powers of women. When it comes to their spending powers, bhat of course, is another question altogether. WEEK END FATALITIES Eighteen lives were snuffed out in this country on Sunday last, Half the number of deaths were the result of motor accidents and many times that number were injured, more or less seriously, through the same reuse. Every week the list of 1::unday fatalities increases and this is only spring. Sunday was ordained as a day of rest, and it used to be just that. But Sunday ae it was observed a few years ago, and as it is observ- ed to -day, are two very different things altogether. We can readily understand a man getting his family into the car on a Sunday afternoon in order to give them a drive through the country, es- pecially at this time of year, when everything one sees holds the beauty and growth of the spring in all its magic colors. But such a man to see this beau' -y and have time to enjoy it, must for- sake the highways for the concession roads. If he does, his afternoon has been well spent. He and his family return home benefited and rested, while his chances of accident are not one in one thousand. It is, however, not love of beauty that actuates the average man to -day when he takes an auto drive on Sun- day. It is, simply, an itch to go ani keep going, and his family have ac- quired this same malady in a greater or less degree. Nothing but the highway will do for him. Any highway will do be - reuse he has no objective in view, no desire to see anything but other cars and n -o ambition but to pass as many -of these same cars as the speed of his car will permit. The highways are already crowdel every Sunday with this class of motarists and every Sunday their number increases. Nine times this kind of driver achieves his ambition by exceeding the speed limit, but the tenth time there is an accident, and then an inquest over himself cr hs passengers or over some other driver and his passengers, who will be the victims of this speed malady. There can only be one ending. Sun- day accidents will increase with the increase of Sunday driving, as Sun- day driving is- known to -day, until the utter folly and danger of venturing on the highways on Sunday for any rea- son but that of necessity, will be fin- ally pounded home into the minds of all motorists. That day is not yet, but it does not take a mind possessing much vision to see it coming, and when it does come we have no hesitation in saying that the people of this coun- try, physically and morally, will be the better for it. EARNING POWERS Statisticians have produced figure' s to show that the earning powers of women are only one-half those of men. A very interesting fact, if true, but one which no woman will ever believe and one which man, while he would like to think it was true, if he is honest, will have a very hard t'me to believe. And even if it is true that the earn ince powers of women are only one- half of those of men, no figures will ever be produced to show that men can or will do more work than wo men. In fact, it is very probable that it is because women do so much work for men for nothing, that their earn- ing powers are rated so low. Take the average mother in the homes of the smaller towns, villages and on the farms in the country. Their average work day is from sun to sun and at the end of the week the amount they have earned is much, but the amount they have been paid is nil Just where would the bank account of the man of the house be, or rather lrew much would it amount to, with- out this free labor in the home. But how many men think of that? When they achieve a measure of success in the world no matter how great or small it may be, they claim all the credit, and when the result is failure, they lay all the blame on the women. We hear a great deal about the amenity of labor on the farms and in •. the Smaller communities. There is .1 an even greater scarcity of help in the homese Of these communities, but herer much de we hear about it? the feet Of the matter is that the '40ffitteet of the homes have Worked so •• • rani ttneeniPlainingly for so ge,fiefatIonn that no one has ev- for efietItto cornpute their •,,, 'Tne Ms of -dello* and cents, ,t• • • ONO.; zifis,itg 6' $'t Thomas McMillan Replies to Mr. Bennett The following is a synopsis of the speech delivered, by Mr. Thomas Mc- Wlillan, M.P., for South Huron, in the Rouse of 'Commons on Tuesday of this week: The response of Thomas McMillan., Liberal M. P. for South Huron, to the ecoldings of Hon. R. B. Bennett in his London speech of last Friday was swift and vigorous. Mr.' McMillan, who was termed by the leader of the Opposition an "aposeate" from the frseal principles previously held, took the first opportunity to rise in the House and reply. "Talk about desertion of principle and apostasy," he said, "but there ori the Opposition side sit the aposeates." "I have before me," be continued, "a few gems of expression which are said to have fallenfrom 'the lips of the leader of the Opposition in Lon- don last Friday. In the first he says he saw me in the House of Commons vote for higher duties on fruits and vegetables than had ever been pro- posed before. Surely the leader of a political party ought to be fair and big enough not to .strike anyone be- low the belt when his face is turned. When he said I voted for higher du- ties why did he not tell them that I had voted in the same .breath for duty-free fruits and vegetables from all the rest of the British Empire? But even with such a qualification that expression was `whopper' No. 1. There sit on the opposition benches no less than 10 members of the sha- dow cabinet gathered about their leader who were sworn into office in lf,26, and who scarcely allowed the ink on their signatures to dry before passing order -in -council No. 10E8, en- ter which they were enabled to place high valuation on certain fruits and vegetables. They raised the duty on tomatoes all the way from 30 to 76 per cent., or an increase of 255 per cent. "On onions, the item we are dis- cussing, they increased the duties by 276 per cent." • Then Mr. McMillan gave a list of vegetables with the duties under the present budget and the duties under order -in -council of the shadow gov- ernment. ranging from 5e to 250 per cent. higher under the scale favored by the shadow cabinet. "Yet," he continued, "the leader of. the Opposition will stand before an audience in the City of London and tell them I voted for higher du- ties than were ever proposed before. Do you think any man will ever be- come Prime Minister if he goes around telling people the like of that'?" "Whopper No. 2" was quoted from Mr. Bennett's speech as follows: "Sir John A. Macdonald an•e others believed that the principles which made the American Republic a great nation would do the same for Canada, and so the national policy of protee- tion was born." "That." said Mr, McMillan, "is not even half the truth. The real reason is that the U. S. represents the larg- est free trade area in the world, which, together with its diversified developed natural resources, is what has made the U.S. a great nation." Going on, Mr. McMillan quoted Mr. Bennett to the effect that "Laurier adhered to that policy till 1911." "That, sir," he asserted, "is an- other of the hon, gentleman's 'whop- pers.' If the hone leader of the Op- position will search Canadian history he will find that not only Laurier but all the leaders of thought in Canada had long maintained that the natural avenues of trade on this continent were north and south. They held to the view of freer trade with the Unit- ed States, and Liberals went down to defeat on three successive occasions fighting for a renewal of these con- ditions. First in 1886 on the policy of unrestricted reciprocity under the leadership of Edward Blake; in 1891. uneler•Sir Wilfrid Laurier, and a third time on the reciprocity agreeMent of 1911. "Liberals still feel that reciprocal trade agreement with the U. S. would be of great value. Canada does $428,000,000 more trade annually with the U. S. than she does with all the rest of the world, which showe the power of natural trade laws. It would have been wrong, however, for any government in Ottawa to have ignored the provocative challenge of the new American tariff. It is the first duty of any government to in- terpret properly the enlightened sentiment of a sane Canadian people. Our people feel as they have never felt before that many of the blows levelled at Canada in that astonishing tariff document are unusually wan- ton and worthless even to the U. S ; for the Canadian Government to have taken all this lying down would have been to humiliate and misrepresent the sentiment of whole Canadian people." CHISELHURST Notes. — Rev.

'Hensel' Bey Presides At Grotto 1Weetings.—The following item which. will, no doubt prove very interesting to our readers, appeared in the Bor- der 'Citiee Star, Windsor, and refers to Mr, J. Wilson Berry, son of Mrs. Annie Berry or Mrs. T. J, Berry, of this town, who holds a very respon- sible position as assistant general manager of the 'Mutual Finance Cor- poration, and the Guaranty Trust Company of Canada at Windsor, who as Monarch, presided at last Friday evening's elaborate ceremonial ses- sion in the Romany auditorium, Ouel- lette Aivenue, Windsor, when some 75 candidates became members of Othmar Grotto 'Mystic Order of Veil- ed Prophets of the Enchanted Realm. This was the first Grotto ceremonial at .which all the work was carried out by local officers: "Under the direction of J. Wilson Berry, Mon- arch of Othmar Grotto M. 0. V. P E. R., 75 candidates for admission to the Grotto were initiated last night prior to a ceremonial drama which drew the applause and commendation of visiting monarchs from Haniilton, Toronto, London and Port Huron. The ceremonial which was the first to be held in Windsor entirely under the direction of local officers, was greatly enjoyed and the local officers were complimented by the vistors. J. B. Serber, of Akron, Ohio, a grand coun- cil. officer, represented the Grand Monarch. The celebration was known as "Grand Steward's Night" in honor of E. Blake Winter, Grand Steward, who acted as toastmaster. The revele which followed the initiation ceremony introduced several innovations in en- tertainment, and drew much applause. Mr. Berry said that the ceremonial was one of the most successful ever staged by Othmar Grotto. R. S. Rid- dell, chief justice of Othutar Grotto, acted as second in charge of the cere- monials, and other officers of the Grot- to also participated in the initiation. After the candidates and members gathered at the Prince Edward Hotel, at seven o'clock, they marched up Ouelette Avenue to Romany Hall, where the program took place. The drum and bugle corps, under the direction of Gordon J. 'Ruttan, took a prominent part in the parade. The chanters, Gordon Ukens, James B. Mallette, Robert J. Sallans and Frank Lewis, also participated in the pro- gram at Romany Hall. The local Crctto is a unit of the order known as the Mystic Order of Veiled Proph- ets of the Enchanted Realm, and is international in its scope, numbering many units throughout Canada and the United States. The local Grotto was started some three years ago and now has grown to about 000 mem- bers. The Grotto since its inception here has done much in the way of providing Christmas entertainment for under -privileged children and another of it objects is international friend-. ship and good will." because of improvements inits 60 horsepower engine.. INSPECTION of the Pontiac Big Six 1 reveals a number of advanced features which enable Pontiac's big engine to deve- lop maximurn power with remarkable ease and smoothness. For instance, the engine, itself, is the largest in any six priced so low. A carburetor of latest design is equipped with an accelerating pump to assure rapid pick-up and full power at high speeds . . and an automatic spark control enables the engine to operate efficiently under all conditions. To these must be added the principal fac- tors in Pontiac's quite exceptional smooth- ness . . . the harmonic balancer which counteracts torsional vibration in the crankshaft . . . the new type of rubber mounting which insulates the engine from the frame. See the Pontiac Big Six. Arrange for a real test on the road. Then, when you are con- vinced of Pontiac's outstanding value . . . use the G.M.A.C., General Motors' own deferred payment plan.
