Not wishing to take issue of the merits or demerits at this time of the proposition of building 50 war­ time houses in Exeter, but I do take issue with the methods employed by our municipal council. We ask the ratepayers to attend a meeting to be held before the municipal clerk, who is not an elected repre­ sentative of the ratepayers and therefore could not give any infor­ mation that could Im regarded as official. Would it not be better for the council to be present and show their confidence in the integrity of the -citizens of Exeter. Is it a good policy for a munici­ pal council to make application to the Ontario Municipal Board to dis­ pense with the vote of the rate­ fl capital expenditure I payers on which is not according to the Muni­ cipal Act. Then again there is no stated amount given in the notice. Why keep the ratepayers in dark on this important item. Why such an unreasonable quest to trail the ratepayers Exeter to Toronto to register any objections they may have. Have the ratepayers not a right to have a hearing in Exeter on questions of this kind. The best traditions of democracy regards it as tyranny I when people are called upon to pay j sums of money ■without the right to have any say in the matter. A Ratepayer, S. M. Sanders. HURONDALE W.

Many were opposed to it. Some thought they would be inviting the wrath of Provi­ dence by insuring their lives. So lecturers were sent out to explain life insurance at public meetings. Grad­ ually, as people learned of the benefits of life insurance, the early hostility gave way to implicit confidence. Since its beginning 100 years ago, the Canada Life has issued some 800,000 policies; it has paid policy- holders and beneficiaries, or accumu­ lated for them, more than $940 millions — $100 millions more than the premiums it has received.
