erial support were very gratifying. A
very large percentage having decided to
.
to pay at least the Minimum of $1500
(exclusive oi Horse keep $150).
An, inspiring feature which revealed the
strong appeal which the church and the
preaching of the Gospel still makes to
young men of ambition, lay in the fact
that Albert Lott, sought admission into
the Ministry. Although blind from birth
his aim has been to preach the Gospel
and by consecrated effort lie has already
taken his 3rd year in Arts at McGill Uni-
versity. The district took no direct ac-
tion but with the expressed hope that
some form of Christian service would
open up to him, . encouraged Mr. Lott to
continue his studies.
At the afternoon session Mr. Geo. J.

Canada's Population .
Arrim9ements for the taking of the de-
cennial census of Canada in June 'of next
year are almost completed. Iu. the col-
lection of the information -respecting the
population of the Dominion more than
1,200 enumerators will be employed,
The results of their labor will be compil.
ed and published.
The Census Department upon the basis
of the average increases in population in
the past 20 Years estimates the number
of the count . ry's inhabitant at about
eight and three-quarter millions. That
method of computation however, is not
considered infallible particularly with re.
SPect to the Western Provinces. At the
last quinquenial census of the Prairie Pro.
vinces Saskatchewan showed an increase
much greater than the normal or than
.
had been estimated by the Census De-
partment.

Petitions are being circulated through.
out Huron County asking the Dominion
Government to suspend the Canada
Temperance Act, a federal measure to
permit of the Ontario Temperance Act,
which is considered more effective, being
.
put into effect in the county: .
It is necessary to have the petitions
signed by 25 per cent of the electors of
the county before the Dominion Cabinet
can act in the matter. The petitions are
being very largely signed and will be
forwarded to Ottawa in a few days. It is
excepted that the change will be readily
granted and that the 0, T. A. will come
into effect in Huron during next month.
With the 0. T. A. in force in Huron
the authorities would have the machinery
of the Ontario License Commission at its
command in securing rigid enforcement
of the act Should the 0. T. A. cease to
exist at any time, it is pointed out, the
suspension of the Canada Temperance
Act could be lifted and the federal mea-g-
ure would again become operative.

BE SURE You VOTE
_
,
� For the Gunn Ily-Uw on Monday)
October 4th I
! .------.
Not for a long time has Wingbarn been
privileged to vote on a by-law which will
be the means of bringing a more beneficial
industry to our town than the one which
will be voted on next Monday. If the by-
law carries Gunns' Sonola phonographs
will be manufactured in Wingbam. before
the end of the year. I
All that is asked for is a loan of $10,000
for a period of seven years and a fixed as-
sessment of $10,000 for a period of ten
years, with no exemption in taxes. I
We have yet to hear of any good reason
why any ratepayer should vote against
the bylaw, '- By supporting it you willbe
helping to make a greater Wingharn for,
in Mr. Gunn's own words he made it clear
that it would be foolishness for him to
have bought'the Walker & Clegg factory
unless he could supply at least one hun-
dred men in the next twelve months.
'
When more families come to Wingham
to reside, property will naturally be in
greater demand and will increase -in value.
Other towns would gladly welcome an
industry which looks as good as this does,
It is a patrotic duty for every ratepayer
to turn out and vote for this bylaw
on Monday, Oct. 4th. See their exhibit-
ion of grafonolas at the Armouries on
Fair Days, Thursday and Fri Jay of this
week.

Merchant As -Fireman .
While the strike on the lakes of the sea-
man, firemen and* cooks is said to be
broken, considerable difficulty is being
.felt in getting capable crews for the boats.
The steamer Glenmount which cleared
for Fort William, bad a mixed crew, the
majority of them from Toronto. She,
came down with no deckhands and three
acting firemen, and would not have had
these only they, bid from the strikers who
boarded the boat at Fort William and
took off the nonunion crew. One of the
'
three was a haadware merchant at Port
Albert who stood his watch as fireman for
the novelty of it.' another was a book-
keeper in the Canada Steamsnip Lines'
office in Fort William.

Shy At Home
Do you patronize the town you live in or
are you disposed to follow a gipsy plan of
running all over? Every dollar you
spend in outside places when it could
have supplied your needs possibly as well
at home is giving the local business man a
genuine black eye. Talk about loyality,
such a line of procedure will never spell it.
flow many of the outsiders you support 1
spend a dollar on you or your commun-
ity? Did you ever hear of them. contri-,
buting to the tax rate or donating to some
good local cause? Never in a lifetime
The drying up or dying out of the towns
and villages would be jone of the worst
things that could happen to any country-
side ond would place the public in the
bonds and power of folk who could arid
likely would make them settle for every-
thing they bad to buy. X"p the home

Pined For Blocking Roads :, -
John Watson was fined two dollars with
out costs at the Police Court Tuesda3
morning for blocking the road. Watsor
had stopped on a narrow piece of roac
to have a talk with a friend in a motoi
truck which he met. A motorist camc
along and wanted past, but it was onl�
after considerable tooting that Watsor
moved his horses and wagon. The
practise of blocking the road, both bV
stopping to talk and by heavi. wagonE
that refuse to give an inch of road to a
motorist that wants by, is an all toc
frequent one, and the fine of two dollars
in this case is just a nominal one to serve
as a warning.
