Stratford Beacon -Herald. But isn't he lucky that they didn't ' blame him for starting it? • A to Col. °leek says ' that the glamor ,and romance' of war is gone forever. For this weshould be devoutly thank- ful, as there is not a doubt but diet the glamor and the romance which onlehew surrounded war down through the ages has done much to 'keep it to the fore as a m.et ed of settling national disputes. There is •eemething splen:clid about the sight 'of marching teen in 'trim unifarms, the sound, of drumbeat and music of military •.bands. But there is no ro- mance, no glamor' about the sight of ' mud -caked, weary and bedraggled • stragglers returning from the un- speakable trenches after days of hors ror. During the Great War there ' was many an act of thrilling ehiv- alry, of highest bravery, but it is not necessary to subject men to such • ordeals to bring out these qualities. ' Every day life sees them numberless -times. We do not just look for them in common circumstances. that is all. No war today is justifiable, except the war to defend the weals against attack, to defend the home and fire- side, The Huron County council voted last week against the abolition of the county council. That seems nat- total, of course. No body of men is likely to see itself as a useless or- ganization is which may as well as not be dispensed with. And per- - haps they are, right. The idea of ganization, which may as well as province in the legislative assembly at Toronto does not anneal. If the 'county •Council will guide its affairs with .diseretion, looking well to the interests of the people at large; re- sisting the temptation to waste time and the hard-earned money of the taxpayer, it will probably find itself ' backed up by the people. 'But care is necessary, the county council is right at hand and when trouble comes neaple are always ready to hit the head that shows itself the nearest The redilotion of the number of legislators is another economy sug- gesSed. But probably the members of the legislature will be just as un- willing to efface themselves as t?ie members of the county council. As • a matter of fact the people of this nrevince would probably be just as efficiently represented by half the number c'f legislators as they are st present and business is always put ' through more auickly by a small body than by a larger one. One lean could represent the county of 'Huron cr any other county. just as well as TWO. But the trouble would be to persuade the people that such was the •ease. Both north and south would imagine that something was being ' "nut aver them" if the suggestion were made that only one rnan be elected in I3uron. But something of the'cart will probably have to be done. Two much rf the respan's money is being used nip in governing them. A severe cut in the number of legislators and the retention of the county councils. whose members are directly respon- sible to the -steeple and are not sub- ject to the party whip, would seem to be a rational way of redueing pub- lic expense. • CONST AN CE Me. and Mxs.
