Holman waited upon Sir Adam Beck on
Friday last. regardir,g Hydro -radial rail-
ways for Huron County. Chairman La-
porte of the committee pointed out that
large areas in the county unsurpassed in
fertility and in the character of its citizen-
ship, were left very inadequately served
by steam railways and that consequently
,production was much hampered and the
areas in question were not contributing
what they should to the national life and
wealth and that the crying need of Huron
was for better transportation facilities.
Sir Adam said that during the war the
commission had refrained from extensive
operations but that very shortly the whole
matter of hydro -radial development would
be gone into thoroughly and that when
the time came Huron County's needs
would receive every consideration,

ial to our brethren who gave their lives for king and couistry.
For the Past 22 years, whenever the; was mom, no child has been refused ad-
mission, whether sty fee could be paid towards its maintenance or not. Over 450
have been sheltered within its walls, 37 of whom were rescued front Roman Catho-
lic Institutions, and God alone knows how many of the others may have found
their way into similar places, had it not been for the watchfulness of the Members
of the True Blue and Orange Associations,
The preaent building, which was remodelled when first purchased, has outlived
its usefulness. It has not the requirements necessary, not only in the way of
equipment' but we are alsO handicapped for actommodation. We want, through.
out Easterri and Vliettern Qtitario, to taloa $300,000.00 for the erection of a. new
IVIiinsters and Ladies' Aids of the Churches, and have your neighborhood .advised
of the fact that between the 7th and 12th of July, they will be asked to Subscribe
on behalf of the helpless children.
There are thousands of persons of the opinion that the True Blue and Orange
Association is only organized for the purpose of parading ott the 12th of July in
memory of the Inunortal William. This will enlighten them differently, and be the
means of advertising the two societies as being engaged in one of the most Christ -
like works possible and when canvassing for subscriptions, emphasize the fact that
the doors of the Home are ever open to any child, whether their parents were
membere of the True Blue or ()range Associations or not.
Is the caus,e not a worthy and &serving one? IIand your subscription to any

THE DANGER POINT
• FOR BATTERIES
One thing that a good many 'automo-
bile ',owners can't understand about bat-
teries, is the way they hang on and keep
giving service right up to the minute when
they refuse to work at all.
"These folks reason" says Mr. A. M.
Crawford, local Willard Service Station
Dealer, "That the light ought to get a
little weaker and start a little slower until
the battery gradually wears out."
"Sometimes a battery acts that way,
but another one may keep right on work -
until it is actually ready to fall to pieces.
When the cells are open'ed up for inspect-
ion, the active material is in some cases
so broken up that it will not hold to-geth-
er. This may be due either to old age or
abuse. Of course, we never open a bat -
try without the owner's consent, but a
battery in this condition could not last a
great while and might go out of service at
any time on the road,"
Most car owners are anxious to know
the truth about their batteries and prefer
to have a brand new battery when they
know their old one is approaching fhe
deadline." ,
. .
We believe we 'offer you the fin-
est collection of "Talcums to be
had in this town.
All makes of importanc,eand
popularity can be had here, and
