who goes out of their way just to
tell me that I am not workng out
niy life in the right way. One thing
I am 'sure of is that my 'life belongs
to me to do with as I wish, so long
as I, do not interfere with _ others.
There is no greater impertinence in
my mind than to signal out some one
eIse and tell them that they should do
so and so. We all know lots of
things we should do and that should be
sufficient to keep us both busy and
thoughtful. One of the greatest evils
of this age is of interfering with some
one else, "One Who Knows" asks am
I my brother's keeper. Yes we are,
only .so far as we have love in our
hearts to give to him and to help him
out of the mire, and not to keep him
there by pushing him further in.
Yours truly,
C. R. Wilkinson.

Editor Advance -Times,
Dear Sir;.
In regard to the matter of the ac-
tion of the Utilities Commission in
cancelling the Water privileges of
Messrs Howson & Howson and to
which reference was made in your iss-
ue of this week, we feel it should be
stated most definitely that the reason
of our action in this matter was not
so much owing to the condition of the
flume as the fact ofthe 4scarcity of
water in the river at certain times of
the year and therefore in case of seri-
ous fire we would find ourselves com-
pelled to face a very dangerous situ-
ation, hi fact it is doubtful if at cer-
tain times during this summer season
we would have had sufficient "head"
to operate the large water wheel for
more than from two or three hours
at the very outside.
Seeing that this condition is quite
common at certain times of the year
the Commission feel that such a chan-
ce should not be taken and that the
interests of the Town in general
must take precedence at all times and
we therefore regret exceedingly that
such a course on our part was nec-
essary.
We are moreover quite anxious that
some arrangement may be made with
Messrs Howson & Howson that will
be satisfactory to all concerned and
With this object in view we are work-
ing on a plan which we are hoping
will meet the desired end, although as
yet not fully decided upon owing to
the extra cost it will entail. We real-
ize that Messrs Howson & Howson
deserve every consideration and our
intention is to do our very best for
them at the same time we realize al-
so that the interests of the town in
general, must at all times have our fir-
st consideration.

The Fall Fairs are now more interesting and' more
instructive than ever. They offer an educational ad-
vantage as well as pleasure, and the'good roads enable
you to attend and return'the same day.
Visit several • Fall Fairs. Take the family with you.
Ask the neighbors to come and bring their families, and
you will enjoy your community party. Meet the people
of the next county and learn what's going on. You may
pick up something about live'stock or field crops which
will be useful to you. When you travel over miles of
'good roads you will think of the advantage they have
brought to you over those who lived in thelast generation.
They have widened your sphere of travel three Or four
tinges over. `.
Remember this, that the roads must be. maintained,
and that you and other users of them will pay the cost.
Use them sanely. Don't exceed the speed limit of 25
miles, and if you use a truck don't over -load ft.
Because overloaded trucks break down road found-
ations and fast driven passenger cars tear up road sur-
faces, the law provides these restrictions. It is in your
interest to obey. If you do not obey, you are liable to
a fine.

A CORRECTION
Editor Advance Times,
Dear Sir:
Speaking at Wingharn on Wednes-
day the 4th inst., Rt. Hon. Arthur
Mcighen, leader of the Official Oppo-
sition in the House of Commons of
Canada ended his remarks on the
Australian Treaty by stating that the
Member for North Huron voted for
the treaty. That statement is contrary
to the facts. The Electors of North
I-Tnron having Hansard of` date, June
23rd., 1925, page 4986,. will there see
Mr. A. G. Smith,
Editor Advance -Times, Wingham
Sir:-
I notice in your paper of Scpt 2nd„
a letter signed "One who knows",
finding fault with 'inot•hors allowing,
their daughters to attend dances In
the open air. . This looks to me an
insult to all mothers whose daughters
attend the innocent recreation of,dan-
cing. "One Who Knows" no doubt
considers' himself or herself as a
judge. Any one with an evil eye in
their head can generally see some evil
in all healthy recreation. What about
the mothers who attend the dances
with their daughters? Some few out-
siders no doubt do at times try to be
x11 for the
smart but why condemn
few. If "One Who I.Cnows".does not
approve of dancing why does he want
to interfere with those that do. , I
wonder if "Cane Who II.nows" has any
sons or daughters who do' dance. It
is the personal freedom of any iiidi-
vidual to dance if they. want to. "One
Who Knows" advices mother to diis-
guise themselves to watch their
daughters.. No mother would deceive
her - daughter that . way.. The one
thing that irritates rite, is for• :some
