'The Advocate started its career as a newspaper under the management and editoralship of the late W. R. Davis, one of those fighting editors of the early days of journalism in Western Ontario, who, through the 'columns of their weekly papers, did more to advertise, to induce settle x•aert and to direct the government of the newly settled Huron Tract and ethers, than perhaps any other single agency. For nearly three-quarters of a cen- tory The Advocate has gone cut to, its many readers each week without a break, and what is still more re- markable, it has remained under the same family management, its foundey having been succeeded 'by his son, Mr. H. D. Davis. The Expositor expresses the sincere wish that the present genial editor will, at the very least, be spared an- other twenty-five years to round out the century of usefulness and good will which has enabled The Advocate, not only to hold its own, but to in- crease in stature during the years of its life, now 70 in number. • ONTARIO FINANCES Mr. S. C. Tweed, Liberal member for North Waterloo and chief financial expert of the Opposition, has deliver- ed a thoughtful criticism of the gov- ernment's financial statement, one that gives the people of the province something to consider and one, in some instances, that it is not easy for the administration to answer. LOCAL BRIEFS (Continued from page 8) fined="in; the 'Scott Memorial Hospital for the past few months, has sufe fiently recovered to 'be able to return to her home in Mitchell• this week.— Mr. J. F.

Burchill and family, of Brus- sels, and Mr. W.

Holmes, of Detroit, are spending the holiday with friends in town.— Mrs. McLeod, of Manitoulin, and Miss Glendenning, of Toronto, are guests a the home of Mr, and Mrs. W. E Southgate. 'Specifically and for purposes of division, Mr. Tweed moved that "This House condemns the failure of the government to relieve the municipal taxpayers from their 40 per cent. con- tri'bution to the government's share of old age pensions, notwithstanding the increasing revenues of the prov- ince." This point constituted one of the chief features of the North. Water- loo member's speech. After taxing everything in sight for its own rev- enue, Mr. Tweed told the Legislature,! the government had placed on the shoulders of the municipalities a large share of the 'burden of the cost of old age pensions. Under the fed- eral Old Age Pension Act passed in 1927 the Dominion government had assumed one-half of the cost of old age pension's, expecting the province to pay the other half. Instead, Mr. Tweed asserted, the Ferguson ad- ministration had passed on to the municipalities the responsibility for 40 per cent, of the province's share. That there has been a great deal of dissatisfaction with respect to this matter cannot be doubted. It was very openly expressed when the attitude of the government was made known some time ago. Many- of the munici- palities took the stand that the pro- vincial authorities had "passed the buck." It was charged, also, and ap- parently with some reason, that the government had not demonstrated much real enthusiasm for the prin- ciple involved and had only taken ad- vantage of the federal provision for the paying of old age pensions when it was no longer possible, from a po- litical standpoint, 'to evade the re- sponsibility any longer. Still another point ,,discussed by Mr. Tweed was the five cents per gallon gasoline tax. During the last fiscal year, the Liberal critic declared, the revenue of the provincial highways department including the gasolinz tax, totalled $17,016,125, while the expenditure on account of roads was only $4,855 853. What, he asked, had become of the difference—$12,160,272, The difference, he said, was not used to make new roads, because the money for that purpose was raised by de- benture issues. According tt the government's handling of the matter, it was evident that collections in the highways department offered a very happy source of revenue to cover ex- penditures in other lines. This, Mr. Tweed held, was obnoxious and ob- jectionable in various ways. Why should the motorists 'be the ones who had to pay? Unless the revenues se- cured from the sources mentioned were used for road purposes exclus- ively, the motorists were being unjust- ly •taxed. Who can find reasonable fault with this position? The excuse for the five cent gasoline tax—indeed the only ex- cuse for any gasoline tax—is that the money is needed for the improvement and maintenance of the road's of the province. If all the money secured via gas tax, motor markers, drivers' licenses, etc., is not used for high- -Way purposes, then it is very evident that the motoring public is being im- posed upon. It would be just as fair for the government to place a tax of one cent a loaf on' bread as it would be to charge the motorist five cents a gallon on gasoline unless it can be shown absolutely that all the revenue derived from the 'gas. tax goes for the purpose for which it is intended. The theory of the gas tax is sound, name- ly, that those who use the roads should pay for them. Most decided- ly so, however, it is not sound and it is not fair to collect money from the motorists, ostensibly -1 for road pur- poses, and then spend it for othe" things in which the whole public is concerned. A GOOD IDEA, IF OLD FASH ION ED. Much comment has been made in the daily and weekly papers of this country during the past few months regarding the increase of crime among boys and even girls. Many and diverse causes have been given and an equally large number of remedies have been advanced• to cure this unhealthy as well as this new and unenviable record which our Can- adian youth is seeking, whether wil- fully or not, to establish The primary cause, of course, lies in the lack of parental authority in the home. But homes are no longer homes in the sense that they used to be. Nor does parental authority carry the weight that it used to •carry. Perhaps it was the a'buse of par- ental authority in other days that is the cause of the lack of it in these. Perhaps the upheaval in the homes caused by the war had much to with it. Certainly the car was a contribut- ing factor, and it may be a combina- tion of all three. Whatever the cause, the fact re- mains that this lack of parental authority is showing its effect in the •conduct of the youth of the land, both at home and abroad, and en ef- fect that is by no means a pleasing cne. Not only has there been a waning in parental authority, but there has been a falling off in the authority once exercised by our municipalities. Con- duct on our streets and highways is passed up to -day with a wink or a anile that would not have been tol- erated a very few years ago. In speaking of this lack of public control, the Aylmer Express makes a very timely suggestion when it says• 'It may be an old-fashioned notion, but we believe that the revivaleof the •old curfew by-law would be of "xeat benefit in Aylmer. It is not at all uncommon to see boys of public school age, running the streets at 10 o'clock at night, and the language used by them at times, is not at all elevat- ing." That is a situation that is not pe- culiar to Aylmer alone. It is to be found in every town and village. It 'has been so, of course, in all times, but only in very recent years has it become so noticeable and it }s becom- ing increasingly more noticeable ev- ery day. No reasonable man or wo- man wants a boy's life to be all work and no play. On the other hand, ev- ery thinking adult person knows the probable end of the boy whose life is all play and no work. There is something the matter with a boy that is not full of animal spir- its, and he has to work off steam if he is to remain healthy, either in body or mind. But the mode of a boy's activities are changing with the years. A boy used to have chores to do and games to play after school hours. At the end of the day, having indulged in a combination of the two, be ex- perienced a healthy fatigue that made home and bed more attractive than the main street. The boy of to -day, as a rule, does tot have chores to do and he does not play gatrnes to any extent. His games are played by professionals and he follows their progress through the newspapers and over the radio. When night comes he is neither worked out tor played out. Ito craves for some excitement 'or something to do, and Ire goes to the street to find it. khat is largely why our Main Str'ee'ts are rdiVe With boys at night, regardless of the 'Weather or the tern- "Mttra : 'And on' the streets aa'ii'ight V +nt~ •:,Yidt improving their bodies, 1, ,46'�+i,:urA '„pf ",fltt'° ..+':fl.'.�''sy y,r• ,fJ.: K•. Eetailitif John Leeper.4-41). Tuesday evening last, the death occurred of one of 4ii' respected residents, to the person '' the late John: Deeper, who had reacted in our village for a num- ber of years, coming heare from his former home' in 'St. 'Catharines. Mr. Leeper had been he declining health for some years and very frail on his feet, but for all of that was of a bright and active disposition, going for a wank every day until a couple of weeks or so, when he was unable to do so and was confined to his bed. He was so poorly that neither medi- cal skill or good nursing availed' and he passed very peacefully away at the good age of 78. He leaves to mourn his death one son by his first marriage, and his widow, whose maid- en name was Mary Carlile. The fun- eral was held from the home here • on Wednesday afternoon last and was conducted by Rev. A. Sinclair, pastor of the United Church, who had visit- ed him during his illness and . bore testimony to his fine character and disposition. The remains were inter- red in the Hensall Union Cemetery. The funeral was a private one. Al Great Old Horse.—It is not of- ten that we refer to any particular horse or horses in our correspondence but this week we can hardly help make reference to a horse that is so well known as "Silver McKinney," the pet horse of the late Thompson Murdock; and one that he treated with more care, attention and patience than often falls to the lot of many children, and in which he took so much pride. But as with people, the years passed that made "Silver Mc- Kinney" quite an aged horse that could not be expected to do much ac- tive work in this rushing age, and a good home opening up for him in the country, where the grass grows tall and the oats are ripe and good, and not much service expected, Silver Mc- Kinney took his departure from our village this week, where for many long years he conveyed the mails be- tween the post office and the railway station, and will now be enjoying the more quiet rural life. In his prime, Silver McKinney was a race horse with some good records standing to his credit, and if any horse ever miss- ed his master, he was that horse. A Trip to Kingsville.—On Tuesday right last Messrs. D. A. Cantelon, Thomas Welsh, Fred Hess and John Passmore made an auto trip to Kings- ville to visit Mr. Jack Miner and hie bird sanctuary, arriving there in the very early hours of Wednesday more- ing. After resting a few hours they weee still able to get out in good time to see the wonderful bird collection that issa noted and of which men- tion is made in all our papers. They were not disappointed 'as to their most sanguine expectations for „being a nice clear morning, and being in- vited to a good place on the tower, they had a wonderful view of the birds at that hour of the morning, when they were all together and at a very conservative estimation they were sure that there were 3.000 geese alone, besides all the other birds. They gazed in wonder and great ad- miration and not only were they priv- ileged to that great treat but still a greaterone in meeting in person with the great bird , friend, Jack Miner, and ink introducing themselves as from •Tensall, not far from Grand Bend. as they put it, as that resort was known to Mr. Miner, they were most kindly and graciously received and found their host even more won- derful arid gifted than they had ever imagined. He was so' willing to im- part to them the knowledge they were so anxious to receive, and as one of the party was heard to remark he gave us a talk and took us into the bird world that city audiences would feel ready to pay thousands of dollars fcr, so interesting and entrancing was ii. But we venture to say that Jack Miner never had a much more ap- preciative audience, though small in number, and men who could take it all in ' and we venture to say that Jack .Miner was most favorably im- pressed with their manner, appear- ance and generally fine deportmen�t, and had they not have been too m•? l- est to let him know that they were not only good listeners, but also com- posed the celebrated Pike Bay Quart- ette, and had given him some of their best numbers, his admiration fo- them would have been nearly as great as theirs for the most celebrated bird man and whose name is now what may be termed a household one.

A splendid program is being prepared for the occasion. Everybody welcome.—The fall wheat in this section is looking very good, the heavy snow falls of the past win- ter just being what was needed.—Mr. Alfred Taylor was recently laid up for a few days, but is now in' his us- ually good health and busily engaged as mason and brick layer.—Our busi- ness men report the spring trade as very good on the whole and are dis- playing fine stocks.—The services in our three local churches on the com- ing Sunday, the 20th, will all he of a special character, appropriate to the occasion and the music by the choirs, as well as the sermon's, will be in keeping with Easter Sunday and large congregations will, no' doubt, be pres• ent. In the United Church the pas- tor, Rev. A. Sinclair, is having ser- vices each evening this week with the exception of that of Saturday, and the attendance thus far has been very ood with creasing numbers( each evening.and the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper will be observed at the morning s coon, . ,5unday,. the 20th, tiw Mr. Tweed, as president of The On- tario Equitable Life and Accident In- surance Co., is an experienced busi- ness man and naturally interested in the efficient management of any con- cern with which he may be connected. He believes that there is room for improvement in the administration of the Liquor Control Act. This is a big business; it paid Ontario a profit of more than $8,000,000 last year. At the same time, Mr. Tweedu oints out, p , this represents only13pee cent of P the sales, while the neighboring prov- ince of Quebec is able to report a 34 per cent. dividend from the opera- tion of a similar liquor business. Brit- ish Columbia, also, he noted, was able to report a profit of approximately 25 per cent. If the operation of the Liquor Control Act in Ontario were as efficient as the operation of the similar measure in Quebec, Mr. Tweed stressed, the profit of the gov- ernment would have been approxi- mately double—$16,000,000-awhat it was. Mr. Tweed took up various other matters in his address—the T. & N. 0. Railway, the provincial treasurer's surplus and so on. The surplus, he said, did not exist at all; it was merely made possible by the mainten- ance of a 'bookkeeping system not in accord with good accounting practice All. in all, the Waterloo mem+ber'e speech is a valuable contribution to the discussion of •public business and demonstrates the wisdom of sending to the Legislature men who have had experience in 'big business and ulna axe therefore in a position to expert- ly analyze complicated financial state- ments and to properly appraise fiscal claims and policies.
