"THE TOWN BEAUTIFUL"
Everyone loves and achnires beauty,
Beauty is one of the divinest forces
that life holds. It is based funda-
mentally on order, symmetty and har-
trimly. The contour of a beautiful'
face; the bleed of colors ie a ntaeter
i'y oieture; the charm of a beeettiful
woman—all these have their univer-
sal appeal,
The city or town in which our home
is made should be no leas beautiful in
our eyes than ehe countryside we re-
vair to in summertime, the inountains
or the seashore. Our quest of beauty
Should begin where all good things
begin, at home. The communityere.

ing upon the homebuilders to keep
the home, the home, clean. • If the
full meaning and significance of home
is truly realised it will be seen that
home is not confined within four

we find our work to do and earn our

MAKING VICTIM A NEW NOSE
?oy Caudle of Lakelet, ' near Clif-
ford, wrote home from a Toronto,
hospital the other day after the first
operation and said it was a severe
one. Portions of the flesh off the
forehead has to be utilized in building
the new nose and. some five or six
operations have to be undergone, It
is to be hoped that he may have a
fairly presentable nose when it is fin-
ished. It will be remembered he had
rg nose cut off laet sun -Amer in a car
accident, while on his way up home
from the 24th of May celebration at
Walkerton.
SOUTH BRUCE TO BEOPENED?
,A fortnight ago J. J. Hunter, of the
Revievv-Reporter, made a guess that
the bye -election in South 3ruce might
be held in mid-June. Whether he had
inside information or merely a big
bluff, 'natters little, but it is surpris-
ingly strange. that Provincial Organ-
izer Clydesdale is in the riding, pros-
pective candidates interviewed, and a
convention is talked of.
The vacancy was caused by the un-
seating of M. A. McCallum, U. F. 0.
on the ground of illegal arrangement
between candidates resulting in the'
withdrawing of one from what had
started as a three cornered contest in
the provincial general election of De-
cember, xged.
Nearly $5o,000,000 for Roads
Since the passing of the Canada
e
Highways' Act in xexe, under which
the Canadian Federal Government
set aside $2o,000,000 to assist the
various provinces in the building and
improvement of highways, over 8,000
miles of highway have been built at
a cost of $48,990,092. Of this amount
the Canadian r•leeovernment has con-
tributed.$19,596,388. In addition to the
work federally' subsidized, the nine
provinces of Canada have carried on
extensive programmes of highway
construction and improvement, with
the result that a total of 5,788 miles
of road was improved in 5926,, at an
outlay of 42g,585,000, made up of fed-
eral, provincial, and municipal expend-
itures. The total amount spent on the
improvement and maintenance of Can-
adian roads in 1926 was approxim-
ately $45,000,000: The total mileage
maintained by patrol or gang system
according to a recent compilation is
46,824 miles, involving an annual ex-
penditure of $A5,978,000.

TOO MANY WOMEN VOTES
To the Editur av all titian
Wingham paypers,
Deer Sur:—
Sometoimes Archie Paterson Ends

'Free Press" in exchange fer it. Ay
coorse we always return thin), fer we

shtruck someting good, an is makin
the besht bit it has made since it turn-
ed Tory fer a few wakes at the toime
of the nointeen sivinteen elickhsun.
D'ye moind that elickshun, Misleter
Editur? Us Tories wus furninslit
a barrud jawb to bate the Grits, fer
the Union eecevernmint had made such
a mess, av tings that the whole coun-
thry wus woild to put Laurier back
into power, so Borden an Rogers an
Meighen had to ehtudy out a skame
to prevint thine Grits from gittin a
chance at shpindin the money which
wus goin purty free in thin days. We
gave votes to the evoiyes an mothers
an sisters an cousins an aunts av sol-
diers whether dead or aloive, (1 hey
heered av thim Grits gittin votes from
dead min, but we wint thim wan bet
-
tiler, so to spake, be votin all the fe-
male relatives av dead min). Thin we
got the min oversays rounded up to
all vote wid us, an devoided up theer
votes among the places wheer we
nayded thim wurst, an we skit tous-
ands av tillygrams to 'the farrumers
tellin thim that theer bYes wud be
lift at home, an not come undher the
conshcripshun law. If theer wus anny-
ting we didn't put into that elickshun
it wus because we didn't .tink, av it,
fer we wus in a bad .ox and cudden't
shtick at troifles, an the ind some-
toimes justifoies the manes.
Av coorse we won the elickshun,
but I see now that it wus a mishtake
intoirely to do some av the tings we
did, fer we hey had all thine Frinchies
agin us ivir since, Just tilde av the
whole Prawvince av Quebec, which
is naecherally Tory an Protickshunist,

What 1 mint to say wus that the

It will cosht that payper a lot av cash
