HEATING TINSMITHING DUI: `Res. 1071.] _ ern Preliminary gures set the North- Ontario gold output for March at approximately $2,125,000---the highest record thus far attained -by the gold mines of the Province for any one month. It is said that the `April record will be equally as large and that construction "work now in progress will result in another up- ward swing next month. There are now about 7,000 men employed in the industry, or nearly 25 per cent. more than one -`year ago. Of. these, . 5,000 are in the Porcupine and Night : Hawk district, with 1`,200;in the Kirl<- 5 land and Larder Lake districts, and the remainder in the outlying areas. Thus we haveeprobably 30,000 peo~ ple and more" deriving a living from the industry, without reference to the number of shareholders, who, while .- smaller in number, prot largely from this natural mineral wealth of . the great Northland of the` Province. ..u:u ucuaua U1; Wllalfls HOW Known as the Blue Water Highway and in 1923 the number increased to 9_720. After the tourists over this route leave the Georgian Bay, the best road to Toronto, on the round trip,- takes them through Barrie, and so this town must naturally benet from the development of traffic over the Blue Water Highway. ` Ald. Huxtable is to be commend- ed for interesting himself in seeing that Barrie is linked up with the Blue Water Highway movement. Last year there `was a tremendous growth of tourist traffic over this route. In 1922 forty-seven cars started north from Sarnia on whatis now known as Hun Rina W94-.. u-:...L----_- --4n - Dr_i Doolittle, the" veteran motor enthusiast who visited Barrie last week, is a firm believer in the value of a motor camping place to a com- munity. It is to be -hoped that the committee appointed by the Town Council may be able to make ar- rangementsfor a suitable camping ground. These are growing in de- mand every year and the more they are used by touring motorists the more money will be. spent in town. Where suchaccommodation is not provided, the tourists will not_ tarry but will push on to some place where _ camping facilities are available. The grorvth of newsprint produc- `tion has been one of the most re- remarkable industrial developments" in Canada_ According to a report recently issued bythe. federal gov- ernment, theproduction of news~ print in 1910 amounted to only 215,- 000 tons, whereas in 1916 it had grown to 6085000 tons; in 1920 to 875,696 tons and to 1,261,051 tons in 1923. Production last year was . six `times the production of 1910, overdouble the output of 1916 and over 50 per cent. ahead of 1921. St. Marys has a by-law which pro- : hibits fowl running at large. The by- glaw provides that anyone convicted `on the charge of allowing his or -her fowl to molest or trespass on the `pro- perty of a neighbor is `liable to ane not exceeding $50 or less than $1, or imprisonment in the commonpjail for a period not exceeding 21 days. Wandering chickens do not add to the joys of gardening, nor are they likelyto promote`the best of feelings between neighbors. Judge Karel of Wisconsin advo- cates a law requiring; every young man who gets married to present a life insurance _p_olicy. .This, the Judge stated, would be adquate proof that he is of sound health and also that he is in a `position to accept some `of the responsibilities of mar- ried life. The Judge s idea has much ; to commend it. When the Civilservice Commis-_ sion is revising the salary schedules for urban`p'3`stal._employees, it should- not overlook the claims of rural mail carriers, many of whom are scan- dalously underpaid. ` -- vuu wnyuuuc Luau auuunel`.

As the gravel is` exceptionally good, it was felt that some arrangement should be made with Mr. Dunsmore to keep thefpit open, and Coun. Reynolds was authorized to take the matter up. No action was taken with refer- ence to a communication from D. F. Symons, on behalf of the summer colony at DeGrassi Point, asking that something be done to the road lead- ing in to the Pointand on which the summer residents their. own expense last summer. `In m..'n Al`I.....1_I_ ;,,, did some work at ` INNISFIL NAMES TWO 13951) sum. _By a vote of 8 _to 5 the`Town Council on Tuesday night passed a resolution yvhich, without `mention- ing any organization or the names of any individuals, really charged a number of highly respected women citizens with circulating. obscene literature- Those who voted for this resolution could hardly have realized its full meaning" or they would not have been a party to cast- ing such a stigma upon these ladies. who mu-st becredited with the best ` of intentions even if some nd fault with their judgment and omethods. Just to whatextent the pamphlet was distributed, we do not; know. Our- information is that it was distributed ` in `envelopes with some temperance M literature, the object being to have T . the envelope taken home to the mo- ` thers- _The leaflet"is entitled Con-- ` serving Our Best, a Talk to M0- thers, and is from the pen of Dr. Margaret` Patterson, Toronto's wo- _ man magistrate. Having read it care- ` fully, we cannot understand how it 4 could be classed as obscene In re-. ` cent years there has been much dis- _i cussion regarding the education of children in sex matters, and while not a few advocate action along this_ line there are many others who hold opposite views. Though the pamph- let in question contains nothing that might not be `quite properly read by parents, _it is not the sort of thing for promiscuous distribution among children. And whileit is stated that the literature was not intended for the children but for the mothers. it may be taken for granted that when unsealed envelopesrare placed in the hands of children they will,'in .a ma- jority of cases, be curious. enough to . examine the- contents. But even if objection to the method of [distrib- _ ution is granted, there does not seem "to be any justification for classing_ ._ the leaflet as "obscene literature." , Action seems to have been `taken , somewhat hastily by the Council. There was no reason for immediate- ly` disposing of the complaint. Scores of less important matters are refer- red to committee. Had the latter course been-followed and every mem- ber. been given an opportunity to read carefully. for himself the leaflet complained of and to enquire into the circumstances, we are satised that a resolution such as that adopt- ed on Tuesday would .not have been passed. ern Baptist Church, after a trip through, Canada writes: Not one churlish Canadian did we encounter on a trip of 2,000 miles through ve provinces in that great Dominion. There was not only an airof rene- ment everywhere but also one of pos- ' itive consideration for the comfort . of tourists. Nor did this consideration bear Amarksof the mercenary spirit. They were not polite for a purpose. They were not courteous` for cause.

Skilled Tradesmen Huntsville Forester: It was re- ' ported in the'LegisIature a few days` ago, during discussion on a bill lef- fecting horseshoers, that there are only ten boys apprenticed to black- smiths throughout Ontario. Thus is illustrated the story of the decline of skilled tradesmen. What the fu- ture holds in store for many lines of trade is aproblem inviting serious reflection. One cannot but believe that if the attention of our young men could be diverted from the quest _for avenues of ease and` white-collar jogbsto the securingof early ground- ing in some useful trade, the success and happiness of future generations would be more secure.
