This of course does not take into account cases to be heard under the Unmarried Parents Act, the Child- ren s Protection Act, the Public Schools Act and the Drainage Act, arbitrations, County Court work, criminal and civil, and the cham- bers routine. The recent rovision for ap- peals from magistrates dec sions under the _ `Liquor Control Act will add materially to the duties of the county judges. A very large number of cases formerly heard in the High Court can now be commenced and tried in the County Court, no matter. what amount is involved,` and this adds greatly to the County Court judge's work.

SECOND COUNTY JUDGE NEEDED Whatever the policy of the Minister` of Justice at Ottawa may be regarding the ap- pointment of more than one.judge in a coun- ty, the fact remains that the naming of .1 second judge for Simcoe County is overdue. Politics need not enter into the uestion at all. A talk with Court House 0 icials and with members of the bar, the latter of all political `shades, is proof conclusive that there is altogether too much work for one judge in this county. Before the death of the late Judge Vance, he and Judge Wismer had all they could do, but since Judge Vance s death no effort has been made to ll the vacancy, causing serious inconvenience to litigants and their lawyers. a Very great delay has also been caused by the lack of adequate judicial facil- lties for securing trials and decisions.
