COUNTY I1OSPITALS • An issue, of considerable importance to Huron CountY is the question of building a memorild hospital. The County Coun- cil has the matter under advisement and - tie being generally discussed. The pro- position is brought forward by the Clinton News -Record that in place of building one large hospital there should be three stnall- er hospitals at different points and the Goderich Signal confesses to seeing some merit in the idea.

Phone 84 WING -Hall, ONT. Box 62 en e' i in the case of 'Huron County. : One' is convenience in the location of a hospital;" the other, 'is efficiency, Of these two questions the more important is that or efficiency. Except a hospital be equipped' to Tender the highest possible degree of service to the patient it will be . of relatively small consequence to him that he should be able to reach it at a minimum of inconvenience, The -beet hospitals to -day are located in the larger cities. We Snake no reference hereto the care to be found in a small • hospital. Often the service ,in this par- ticular in the lesser hospitals is to be pre- ferred. But in equipment, and in the at- tention which is obtainable from phy- sicians, the wealth and resource of the cities surpasses whatever may be possible in smaller centree, Huron County is not far removed from large cities and in. critical cases her citi- zens may readily avail themselves of the hospital accommodation to be found in these. There is here some argument for . the adoption of the hospitals in different locations where they will be most ready of access. But Huron County is a great county, and it is for her citizens to decide whether the time has not come for the building of one hospital, which shall be the best that the combined effort ani resource of the county can afford.—Lon- don Free Press TUE $ IN YOUR TOWN Just a dollar on a mission sent. makes a lot of people glad each time the coin is spent. You pay it to the butcher for the • meat to give you strength; he takes it to . the grocer from whence it goes at length for some pretty lace or cloth his better half to buy, or help to get her winter hat to make her rival sigh The dry goods ' .man.sends on the coin to pay his market bill, and though the coin is often spent, it stays a dollarsstill; and every time 'tis spent at hone, some act of good is done, in booming local industries it's bound to make them run. But if you take the. • shining coin and break the local chain, the chances are that from afar 'twill not ,return again. If once it passes out of town, the butcher and the baker, the grocer and'the dry goods man, the furn- iture man, the carpenter, the wagon man and blacksmith, the shoe man and the printer, everyone will lose the chance to touch the coin ere the setting- of the sun. fust keep the coin at home, just keep it moving well; and. every time it changes hands somebody's goods 'twill sell. That single little dollar has thus a wondrous power to make somebody happy a dozen times an hour. It pays the bill and wards off ill and ne'er the power relaxes to soothe the doctor, buy the coal and pay for clothes and taxes. Salemi Mr. Chas. Kitchen has disposed of his Overland Car to Mr. Geo.

TAB WINS', UM GIRLS ROB TUB MAILS (Goderich Star) Oftentimes one notices a post office box key carelessly left in the lock of the box, and we suppose in the majoritymajoritycases of the key is promptly placed inside the box or returned at the wicket and the box holder recovers his key and thinks nothing about the matter further. This does not always happen however, as is shown by a n investigation which took place in Goderich last week, which un- earthed a systematic scheme of robbing Itis Majesty's mails; and but for the fact that the guilty ones were found to be a couple of young girls and that the charge was purposely laid under the Juvenile De- linquents Act, they would have to serve a term of years in the penitentiary for the offence, the law giving tbe magistrate no option in the matter. This shows how serious the offence is and the youthful offenders should, and no doubt will, take warning and avoid temptation in this matter again Box -holders also should be more careful not to leave their boxes or the box unlocked and so put tempta- tion in the way of those who do not real- ize tbe serious nature of the offence. The discovery of the robbery that has been going on came about by the invest- igation of the non -receipt of a remittance by a party i n town. This remittance was by postal note, and the number hav- ing been preserved, inquiry was made at Ottawa by the Goderich postmaster as to who collected this remittance. The name having beeh found out, Assistant Post Office Inspector McLean came up from London on Monday of last week, and with the assistance of the police, the modus operandi was discovered. One of t h e girls was found to have no fewer than four postoffice keys which she had taken from boxes in the postoffice, and the prac- tice it seems was to use these to open the boxes and abstract tht mail, If the letter was found to contain money, the money was kept and the letter destroyed. Some- times it was necessary to fill in the name of the person to whom the postal note was addressed, and in the case of the note which was investigated, the payee's name had apparently not been sufficiently care- , fully filled in t o prevent a new name being written in, which was done and the note cashed. In another case we under- stand the remittance was for $50, which was shared up by the two girls. One of the charges was thus made of stealing, anp another of receiving stolen goods and forgery. Considering the youth o f the offenders, the charges were purposely brought under the Juvenile Delinquents Act, and the magistrate let the girls go on suspended sentence, they to report io re- port to the Children's Aid Officer once a week.

Our lists were corrected this week. LOOK for the sealed package, but have an eve out also for the name Some Sane Advice. The Kingston Whig passes on some sane advice to those desiring to stop a sub scription to a newspaper. It says there is probably no man engaged in the newspap- er business in Ontario who is not ac- quainted with a man whose excuse for discontinuing his subscription is that he already "has more papers than he can read", It is only an excuse offered to ameliorate the presumed lacerated con. diticin of the editors feelings. It has no such effect for in the first• place an editor never worries over the loss of a subscriber except when he leaves the country with- out es But l why not be out paying up arrearag truthful and say to the honest newspaper man just what you feel in your heart? Go into bis office and ask him bow much you owe, pay the delinquency and tell him frankly that you don't want his die- reptttabie, blackguard sheet any longer. Say to him in a sorrowful tone of voice that you deeply regret his inability to pub• lash a newspaper worthy the name and ad• vise him to sell his plant to some man with a thimble full of brains and seek some occupation which does riot require Much wear and tear of the mind, Do this and then yon can go away with the -comforting assurance that the newspaper man respects you for your candor and will cherish no hard feelings because you choose to borrow his pnpet instead of buying it. That ].name is Your pro tection against inferior imitatibns, lust as the sealed package is pro- tection against impurity. The Greatest Name in Goody -Land ~w Sestsd Tight KW Meet WHAT WiNS It's the everlasting climbing that gets you to the top, And the everlasting sticking to the task you'd like to drop, -It's the grit and vim and muscle In the rough and tumble tussle That will bring you home to victory and the distant goal you seek; It's the ever up and working, Never lying down and shirking That eventually will land you on the mountain's sunny peak It's the patient perseverance to the pip •which you have made, That will bring you through the dangers, and the pitfalls which are laid; It's the steady. constant driving, To the goal for which you're striving, Not the speed with which you travel, that will make your victory sure, It's the everlasting gaining, Without whimpering or complaining, At the burdens you are bearing or the woes you must endure. It's the holding to a purpose, and the never giving in, It's the cutting down the distance by the little that you win; It's the sure and firm endeavor Not the brilliant stroke and clever, That shall bring you home to gladness and to days of joy and song, It's the iron will to do it, And the steady sticking to it, - So whate'er your task, go to it! Deep your grit and plug along! LIFT CORNS OR CALLUSES OFF Doesn't hurt!
