The first rule of health is regular elimination. Otherwise, ” constipation soon develops. Headaches, poor appetite, loss of en- -ergy, sallow skins are usual consequences. Beauty and health may be seriously impaired. Here's where bran is so important, It supplies two things needed to prevent ordinary constipa- tion. Vitamin B, to tone the intestines. "Bulk," which gives them exer- cise. Both promote regular habits. A safe, pleasant way to get your daily bran is with Kellogg's ALL -BRAN. Two. tablespoonfuls daily of this delicious ready -to -eat ce- real will usually prevent and relieve both temporary and recurring constipa- tion.

V. Fortunatus. PRAYER 0 Thou who didst open the eyes of 'Thy servant of old that he beheld won- drous things concerning the future wrote down as directed and sent to the seven churches which were in Asia. He regards himself as the brother and companion of these early; church members and he tells them that he also, is enduring afflictions and he en- courages them, pointing to the pati- ence of their Master who is even now speaking to them through him. The Christ which John saw in the vision which came to him in his exile was not that of the companion with whom he walked and talked for three years in Palestine. Then he was the lowly Naza}ene, despised and rejected of men and at last put to death on the cross. In the vision he is the vic- torious Christ. How does John des- cribe the one he saw? "His head and his hair were white as wool." "His eyes were as a flame of fire." "His feet were like unto the brass." "His voice was as the voice of many waters." "His countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength." Ill -2,s awesome sight caus- ed John to fall at his feet as one dead. He had been givetl a glimpse of the risen and glorified Redeemer. In circumstances somewhat similar to the present, a somewhat similar~ ef- fect had been produced upon other saints of God. When Isaiah beheld the glory of the Lord he cried, "Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts" (Isa. 6:5). When Ezekiel be- held a vision of the same kind, he tells us that he "fell upon his face" (Ezek. 1:28). When the angel Gabriel ap- peared to Daniel in order to explain the vision whish had been shown him, the prophet says: "I was afraid and fell upon my face" (Dan. 8:17). The effect upon the Apostle was greater for he became as one dead. What followed? "He laid His right hand upon me," adds St. John, "saying, Fear not." Then follows the declara- tion, "I am the first an the last; .I am he that liveth, and was 'dead; and, behold, .. I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death." This is the first vision of the Book of Revelation, and it contains the key note of the whole. As distinguished from the Gospel according to St. John in which Jesus, the Only Begotten of the Father, is seen clothed with His humanity, He is here head over all things to His church. And He is this as the glorified Redeemer who has finished His work on earth and snow carries it on in Heaven. John beheld him as a High Priest, but as One clothed with judgment. Thus we are taught what to expect in the Book. It will record the con- flict of Christ and His people with the evir that is in the world, and their victory over it. It will be the story ,:pf the Church as she journeys through the wilderness to the land of promise, encountering many foes. but more than conqueror through Him that lov- ed her, and often raising to heaven her song of praise, "Sing unto the Lord, for He hath triumphed glorious- ly, the horse and his rider He hath cast into the sea,"—Condensed from The Book of Revelation by Dr. Wm. Milligan. life, open our spiritual eyes that we may see Thee as the way into the glories of the Promised Land. For Thine Own Name's sake. Amen. S. S.

COUNTY COUNCIL Continued fromi Page One Thursday., , The Warden expressed his pleasure at `seeing Mr. Ritchie in attendance, after his illness. Under the head of Reports of Coun- ty Officials, Mr. 0. 'Ginn, Corn Borer Inspector, gave an account of his work during the past, year. County Engineer Patterson gave his report of conditions at present and of the work during the year. Mr. Patterson went fully into the general cost of labor and other con- ditions under which the work was carried on. kr. Patterson said tarring treat- ment bad been resorted to and con- siderable valuable information had been gained in this new type of road, rendering the _cpst much less than by gravel construction. Mr. Patterson also answered sever- al questions re road construction. 'Mr. Haase, Provincial Engineer, was asked to address the council. He congratulated the county on its road programme carried out this year but declined any lengthy remarks. Mr, W. H. Golding, of Seaforth, was present and spoke to the county regarding hospital legislation re training of nurses. McKibbon-Thompson: That this council place itself on record as being opposed to the order -in -council which r'ebuir•es all hospitals to have at least fifty beds to be eligible to carry on as a training school for nurses. That as a council, we believe that this decree will work a serious handi- cap on our small hospitals and will force them to increase their fees or close their doors which, under present conditions, will be a serious handicap on the patients, on the municipalities and also on the county. We believe these small hospitals are filling a long felt want in many municipalities and we are of the opin- ion that the training that the stud- ents receive in the well conducted smaller hospitals ism such that the graduates are well qualified to take their place among the graduate nurs- es of any hospital in the Province. We would, therefore, beg the Hon. Minister of Health, Dr. J. M. Robb, to give this question his very serious consideration and have a suitable amendment made to this order -in - council cancelling these clauses and that a copy of this resolution be for- warded to the Minister of 'Hlealth.— Carried. Under the head of enquiries, Mr. Eckart asked why the debentures in- debtedness was not included in the treasurer's statement. It was pointed out that it was not customary to do so, that this year the payment $12,950 on the highway de- bentures and the interest on the 15 year patriotic debenture issued in 1918 the principal is due in 1933. The County Property Committee re- ported and the report was adopted with the Warden in the chair. The Finance 'Committee reported and the report was taken up with Mr. Cutt in the chair. The report was adopted. The Legislative 'Committee reported with iMr. Armstrong in the chair. The report was adopted. The report of the Education Com- mittee was taken up in committee with Mr. McKenzie in the chair. The report was adopted. The Executive Committee reported and the report was taken up in•'com- mittee with Mr. R. H. Thompson in the chair. . The report was that By-law No. 5,. of •Goderich Township, be taken up in the whole eouncil. It was moved by 'Messrs, McKibbon and Goldthorpe, that the request for confirmation of this by -lave be grant- ed„and that a by-law be passed con- firming the same. The Good Roads Commission re- ported and the report was taken up in committee with Mr. McKibbon in the chair. In considering the report of the Good Roads Commission, Mr. Elliott moved, seconded by. Mr. Keys, that an amendment be made to Clause 6 that the road between Bayfield and Brucefield be kept open during the winter months, providing that the Provincial Government keep No. 4 Highway open. .A standing vote was taken and the amendment lost and that part of the clause adopted. j The report wiia then adopted, McNabb -''Geiger: That owing to the present serious depmgs.sign and our heavy rate of taxation, *Well ordin,,, arily is very bulr,,densome, wn would recommend that the Provincial: High' way Department be ;equestgl to al- low no paving bet done • in the county' until circumstances are unproved and that any necessary expenditure should be expended in our own county. ---,Par- ried on a vote of 21 to 7. 'Moved by Messrs. Eckart and Goetz that all unpaid debentures be placed on the treasurer's report as a liabil- ity. --Carried. Mr. Cox, ex -reeve of Goderich town- ship, was present and was asked to address the council. Under the head of enquiries, Mr. Geiger asked about the committee to be appointed. to suggest amendments to the Municipal Act. The Warden said that he had been puzzled to pick out a committee and u;gggsted the matter be taken up by the council. Mr. C. A. (Robertson, M.P.P., being present, was asked to give an opinion on the matter. He spoke of the meth- od of committee work and appoint- ments in the Legislature and the use- fulness of practical appointments to consider all matters affecting legisla- tion.. It was moved by Mr. McKibbon, seconded by Mr. i'McKibbon, that a committee of three be appointed to have same renumeration as county councillors to be limited to three years, the Warden to ascertain whether the committee can be of service before being called together. 'Messrs. Robert Livingston, W. H. Golding and Harry Eillber were nam- ed the committee. Ballantyne -McKenzie: That this county council recommend the return of Warden Beattie as Reeve of Sea - forth, for the year 1932, as we consid- er the Warden of the previoute year to be a benefit to the county eouncil ow- ing tq his exper.ence, and a copy of this resolution 'be sent to the Clerk of Seaforth.--Carried. Rader -McKenzie: That the'Mothers' Allowance Board be paid the usual sum of $145 to be divided as follows: Chairman, $65; secretary, $35, and the other three members of the Board, $15 each.—Carried. A number of by-laws were given the necessary number of readings and were directed to be signed and sealed. This completed the business of the session. Mr. Geiger, seconded by Mr.- Mc- Kibbon, moved that the Warden leave the chair and that Mr. McNabb be ap- pointed chairman. Mr. 'McNabb took the chair and af- ter a few remarks called on Mr. Mc- Kibbon and Mr. Geiger, who presented Warden Beattie with a beautiful word- ed address and the county council's parting gift, a gold headed cane. Warden Beattie replied thanking the council for their splendid gift. The meeting was then thrown open and a number of speeches of congrat- ulation and good fellowship were made by the members of the council and ex - councillors C. A. Robertson, M.L.A., and Robert Turner. At the conclusion of the speaking, the council rose and sang "Auld Lang Syne" and "God Save the King." On motion of Messrs. G. H. Elliott and John M. Eckart, the council ad- journed to meet per statute in 1932. REPORTS OF COMMITTEES: Finance Committee. Besides the passing of a number of accounts, the Finance Committee -re- commended that all Division Court Clerks be notified that the county will not pay for blanks or any other supplies ordered by t;iem, other than from the Comity Clerk.—+A. P. Keys, Chairman. County Property. The County Property Committee re- ported as follows: IVe visited the Registry Office and found everything in fair condition. We visited the Magistrate's office and found everything in first class condition. «"e visited the different offices in the Court House and found them in good repair. Since our last meeting we had the Crown Attorney's office repaired and redecorated and put in good shape. We visited the goal and found sev- en prisoners in custody and every- thing was nice and clean.—J. J. Moser, Chairman. Advisory Committee. The following are the recommenda- tions passed on by the Advisory Agri- cultural Council at a meeting held in the agricultural office, Clinton, on Saturday afternoon, Novemiber 14th, 1931: (1) In view of the fact that many farmers find themselves in rather ser- ious financial difficulties at the pres- ent time, and as a considerable num- ber are applying for mem loans, the Advisory .Agricultural Council recom- mends that the interest rate on farm loans obtained through the Agricul- tural Development Board, be reduced to 41/a per cent., and that special con- sideration be given to applicants in the amount of loan granted, if, after investigation, it is found that the ap- plicant is worthy of a larger loan than the amount stated in the regula- tions, which, at the present time, is 50 per cent. of the value of the pro- perty. (2) In view of the interest taken by the Junior Farmers of the county in the Horne Plowing Competition conducted this fall, the Advisory Agri- cultural 'Committee recommends that three plowing demonstrations be con- ducted in the county next year for the benefit of our young farmers who are interested in better plowing. It is suggested that these three demon- strations be held in East, West and South Huron. (3) The Advisory Agricultural Council are of the opinion that much can be accomplished with our Junior Farmers through judging competitions and, in addition to the two judging competitions annually conducted in the county, the council wishes to recom- mend that competitions be included in the prize list of our local fall fairs, and tl(at special coaching elasses on line stock judging be arranged in dis- tricts, where a . number of interested boys can be secttred.J--+I.

The County Gaoler reported as fol- lows: I beg to submit for your informa- tion the following report for the past six months: There have been sixty-seven pris- oners committed as follows L. C.

We have at present in custody sev- en prisoners.—J. B. Reynolds, Gaoler. Legislative. The Legislative Committee report- ed as follows: 1We would like to have the Indigent Act amended so as to make the in- digents or the parties placing them in hospitals, furnish the information as to indigents. That no indigents be placed in any hospital by any medical man or other party, before first getting the consent of the reeve of the municipality from which such patients is taken. The county should not be called for proof of indigence, this should be obtained before the patient is placed. That no indigents be placed in any hospital outside our own county un- less our hospitals are not able to take charge of such and that the county be not held responsible for any patient placed in any hospital contrary to the provisions of the following clauses: We want the residence clause amended by the changing of months to years. It is not reasonable or just to allow an indigent to live his life in municipality A and by crossing the road into B for three months to make B responsible, The clause as at pres- ent constituted seems designed for tramps and not genuine residents. Re the resolution of the County Council of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry with reference to bus traf- fice, we recommend the adoption of the part of the same as follows: "That whereas inter -urban bus lines and inter -urban freight lines are grad- ually monopolizing the use of the said highways; and whereas such traffic is a much harder strain on the said highways than the traffic of the ord- inary motor cars and will greatly in- crease the cost of maintenance there- of, there should be a more careful supervision over same and mort reg- ulation of the drivers employed on such bus and freight lines. — J. W. Gamble, Chairman. House of Refuce. The House of Refuge Committee re- ported as follows: The 'Committee held four meetings during the year in March, June, Sep- tember ward November. At each meeting the accounts for the quarter were audited and orders issued for the payment of the same as follows: March, $2,990.80; June, $3,665.15; September, $5,430.82; No- vember, $3,144.70. Total, $15,231.,47. There are at present 95 inmates in the House and during the last three years 16 have been admitted from the Ontario Hospital, cases consider- ed cured or sufficiently so to be allow- ed to mingle with the inmates of the County Home with safety. During the past year four of those 16 have died and a total of 10 deaths regis- tered during the past year. The physician's report, which will be found in the reports of the officers of that institution, speaks very highly of the condition, care and manage- ment of the County Home, and the committee has nothing but words of approval for the manner in which the farm and home have been conducted this year. We regret very much that some un- i justifiable remarks were made by an irresponsible inmate, which caused Mrs. Jacob ands,her two assistants much worry, but one needs only to consult those inmates who know how to appreciate good food and kind' treatment to be convinced that such unkind criticism shoii'ld receive no publicity. Early in the summer the pumping apparatus gave out and caused very much trouble and anxiety and could not be depended upon at all for the necessary water supply. The eoynmittee had installed a nero'v power pump, system and we were pleased, at`: our last visit that it WAS working very satisfactorily. luring'the year the eoin nittee took up the matter of erecting a suitable - Memorial to the deceased inmates who. were :buried in the small cemetery ow the Home farm. We had the lot part- ly levelled and it is the intention to,' complete the levelling, seed it down+ and erect a suitable fence. We had a cairn erected at the north; side of the plot with three white marble slabs containing the names of the 124 whose remains lie buried un the little plot, engraved thereon. The work was all well done and the cairn and the engraving of the names are credit to those who didi the work. At our recent meeting the- committee visited the cairn and ther work was very highly commended. I It is hoped the committee.next year• will complete the levelling and erect: a suitable fence. At the September meeting an agent. for a firm mianufacturing a tubular system of 'fire escapes, gave a moving; picture illustrative of how the sys- tem works. The agent said the cost of installing a suitable system of three escapes at the Home would be $2,250... The committee informed the agent that they were not prepared to enter- tain the idea of installing the systems during these hard times but would recommend to future committees tee. consider the advisability, especially one at the east end. During our several visits we noticed” with much satisfaction that the in- mates were well provided and cared for and we have every reason to feet proud of the home -like institution known as the Huron County Home.— W. J. Henderson, Chairman. Mothers' Allowance. The number of mothers on the pay roll receiving allowances ranging, $15 to 350 per month, was fiftyieight.. This is an increase of five over last year. The number of mothers who harve received the allowance since the act came into force 11 years ago-, is 153. During the 12 months from Novem- ber 1, 1930, to October 31st this year, which is the provincial government's financial year, the monthly payments were as follows, paid by the county: November $ 865.00 tecember 865.00' January 902.50 Pebi'iiai'y 890.00' _March 832.50 April 875.00 my 915.0 June 882.50 July' 862.50 August 837;50 fief?tember ..... 935.00 October 877.50 $10,540.00 This represents the county's 50 per cent.; the Ontario .Government pay- ing a similar amount, making in alh 321,080.00 paid to the mothers of Huron during the 12 months ending October 31st this year. The $10,540.00, the county's share represents a levy. of less than one- fourth of a mill on our equalized as- sessment of $44,271,175.00. The distribution of the paynents• made to the mothers in Huron was as. follows: 2 received, each $15.00 per month 4 received, each 320.00 per month 9 received, each $25.00 per month: 18 received, each $30.00 per month 13 received, each $35.00 per month. 8 received, each $40,00 per month. 1 received, each $45.00 per months 3 received, each $50.00 per month This is taken from the September report, given albove, and is a fair average of the different months. The number has changed slightly' more this year than previous years,. but the decrease in those ceasing to- be claims has nearly kept pace with,. the additions. (Several cases of irregularity have been dealt with during the year., Any cases that have been reported to the local authority here have been report- ed to the central authorities and an inspection made by the inspector ap- pointed ,for that purpose, and every attempt has been made to keep the system free from objectionable fea- tures.
