Mrs. Hugh McLeod.
Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Clarke and
family of near Gerrie, visited on Sun -
clay with Mr. and Mrs. Walter Hors-
bttrgb,
Miss Alice McLeod is holidaying
with her grandmother, Mrs, D. Zeig-

Mrs. J, Strong and Mr. Roy Strong

with Mr, and Mrs. Thos, Strong,
is MR. SPOTTON RIGHT
George Spgtton, M.P. fo • North
Huron, has been attending to Itis
business .college interest while at Ot,
tawa. He had a number of form let-
ters run through the mimeograph ma-
chine at the House of Commons and
then used his franking privilege to
have these sent out free of charge.
Mr..Spotton is at least quite frank
about the whole matter. : He says
those in charge of such work at the
House of Commons were quite in ac-
cord with his plans,' and also contends
that it is necessary for a man to keep
in touch with ,his own business while
attending to public business at Ot-
tawa. He also statesthat it is a cus-
tom generally followed by many of
the members of parliament, and that
he is one of those who makes least
use of the stenographic and postal
privileges of parliament.
Be that as it may, it is difficult to
see why the people of the country
of large should have to pay the ex-
penses of members of parliament who
find it necessary to keep . -a hand on
their own business while at Ottawa.
It is only within recent clays that

on Mr. Spotton's theory it would be
quite all right for him to have cir-
culars for the McLagan Co. printed
and mailed free from. Ottawa, and if
the rule were made general in its ap-
lication we can see nothing to pre-
vent all other business men at Ot-
tawa from doing the same thing.
The incident shows that there
should be a statement given to the
people of the country showing to
what extent the free mail service is
used, and if. it ever was intended to
cover the point claimed by Mr. Spot -
ton. A business house having no
member of parliament in its person-
nel would seem to be somewhat
handicapped in carrying on its pub-
licity work.—Stratford Beacon -Her-
ald.
In our childhood
most of us learn to
greatly dislike the
words "don't do
that", but of course
when we grow up,
we learn that most
"don'ts" have a lot
of reason behind
there.
However, some of us never do
learn.
.. For example, there's the man who
habitually exceeds the speed limit. I
followed one of these chapsgforiabout
3 miles yesterday on the Lake~Shore
Road., He didn't hit less ,teian fifty
at any time. Luckily traffic was
light. He was indignant when I wav-
ed hint to stop.
"Sure, I know I was driving fast,"
he. said, "but the road was clear and
I'm in a hurry."
• I had to explain to hint that no
man can drive a car at excessive
speed and get away with it
always,
You see, in the city a driver runs
at a much lower speed and his mind
and motions are keyed to that speed.
In an emergency he knows what to
do, and does it instinctively,
Occasionally on the highways he
"steps on it" and at the first emer-
gency he's in trouble almost before
he knows it.
No two ways about it. I know 'I've
