A NUISANCE
We have just heard of a couple of youths who set out to reach
a certain destination by pinching, that is, by thumb-wagging their
way. These boys are the sons of well-to-do parents who were per
fectly well aware of the adventure upon which their off-spring were
setting out. Yet they allowed their boys to act the tramp, the
whiner, the part of youths who sought -Something for nothing,, and
to make general nuisances of themselves.'' Yet these same parents
would have -been pained had their hopefuls 'been taken in custody
by the police under the charge of being tramps and ne’er-do-wells.

WHY?
We were calling on one of our farmers one morning this week
when the present financial situation as it affects the farmer -came
up for discussion. Here is one of the farmer's remarks;
“You see this binder? Well, when I bought it I gave my old
binder and one hundred dollars -for it. My son bought a new bind
er this harvest, and paid two hundred and seventy-five dollars for
it along with his old binder. The new binder simply is not worth
the difference. How do you account for the additional money my
son was expected to pay fqr his new machinery?”
We’d like to see this situation threshed out somewhat. There’s
a nigger in’the fence.
STRANGE .
The way some school boards are acting just now shows that
the education of some of the parties thereon has been sadly neg
lected. \ '
These boards have found occasion to squeeze some of their
employees. This is not to be wondered in financial times such as
these. But what, does surprise us in that the 'boards have not pro
ceeded on the principle of retaining the most efficient workers but
have just fired or reduced Salaries right and left' with little consid
eration of the efficiency of the Workers concerned. iS-uch a procedure
has not the advantage of either rhyme oi' reason. It’s simple stu
pidity or a false conception of charity or of justice.
Folk are ordinarily encouraged to work in the expectation
that thei'f services will be rewarded on the basis of fidedity and
efficiency. School boards in some places do not believe in any
such teaching.

SPECIAL LICENSE FOR
POLICE DOGS
Voicing a “regretful denuncia
tion” against police dogs, J, McNab
Wilson, manager of the Toronto
Humane Society, said today there
were far too many of these dogs in
the city. “They give us more trouble
than all other breeds put together,”
said Mr. Wilson. “If people want
particularly to keep police dogs
they -should be kept under special
license,” he thought,
. Of late police dogs have been re
sponsible for a number of attacks
on children on the city streets.

The voluntary resignation
F. McGregor, who had been
pointee of the Liberal party
turning officer in the pending by
election, has peen tendered to Jules
Castonguay, Ottawa, -chief electoral
officer, who paid a recent visit to
this community.
“I had too much, other work on
my hands and I told Mr. Caston
guay that I could not posmiy take
the office,” stated Mr. McGregor,
when asked by the Beacon-Herald
for his reasons for resigning from
office. , j
It was alleged that Mr. McGregor
attended the Liberal convention
held in Hensail recently as. a dele
gate and that this was the cause
of the resignation, but. Mr Mc
Gregor gives vigorous denial to this
allegation.
There are three candidates in the
field. Lou'is Rader, Conservative;
W. H. Goulding, Liberal and Wil

are being made by" the Liberals to
get Mr. Black to retire in order to who bores the others by reading an
