Dunning as Minister of Finance in the Federal Government is a popular one according to the concensus of op- inion expressed. by the press of Canada. Mr. Dunning is a man who challenges the admira- tion of Canadians because he came to this Do- minion as an English immigrant and by his own application, talent and ambition rose to political ` eminence at an early age. His experience. as Pre- l mier of Saskatchewan and the ability he has shown as head of the railway department mark- ed him out as the most likely successor to the late Hon. J. A. Robb. His appointment was no surprise to the Canadian public because Premier King foreshadowed it in one of his western speeches and from the first it seemed the logi- cal step for the Prime Minister to take. llnlilpn his In-i11Inn+ n.-n.4nncm.~n.- .lA.. l\.... e.4nNours% .4LLecAN.4n1AN uAnxz7rs- we DELIVER FREE TO ANY PART or TOWN MARKETS u . 1-. 1.-.... has been properly identied in Toronto as a.

Unlikke his brilliant predecessor,-~_*Mr. Dun-_ ning takes hold of the important portfolio of finance while still a young man. He lacks some of the qualifications so outstanding in _th_e `make- up of Mr. Robb but in some other respects he is better equipped to tackle the biggest job that has confronted him during his active, public life. Mr. Robb s_ rise from the back--benches to high cabinet rank was unusually rapid. He was an untried man and hehnade good in a spectac- ular degree. Mr. Dunning has had the advan- tage of administrative training in the province of his adoption and that will be a great help to him now. He was a particularly successful poli- tician in the provincial field. as was indicated by the approbrious name applied to his organiza- tion. That kind of ability and experience will . not be so useful to him henceforward but since 1 his arrival at Ottawa he has dem_onstrated that he has the other requirements looked for in an administrator of national affairs. ll_. l\_.____f_- .

J. McKnight of Tottenham and the secretary, J. T. Simpson, County Clerk. There is no doubt thatethe lion's share of the work entailed by Old Age Pen- _sions in Simcoe falls upon the shoulders of these two officials. The other threesmembers or the board admitted the fact quite cheerfully in 3 urging special consideration for their colleag-i U85. W`! , NI ,1,,..-r 1:-..

C. A. Dunning, Hon-. W. R. Moth- erw`ell, Hon. Chas. Stewart and Hon. Robert_ Forke. That is a large representation for three , provinces. No doubt if Mr. Crerar accepts the railways. portfolio Mr. Forke will be retired to the Senate, a change that he will much enjoy, and his department will be turned over to some representative from the East or from British Columbia. Some years ago the West used to complain that it hadn t arfair sh-ow in the` cab- inet at Ottawa. .,That may have been so in those days` but even the narrowest, prairie par- `ti-san must admit today that the pendulum has swung far in the other direction. ' .I IIIX HITCH` $3&$ -u-v-w . in these days when a growing disinclination to participate in civic affairs is the SLlb]8Ct of much comment, it is good to recall arecord such , as that of the late Judge Ross. Almost from his coming to Barrie he served on public bodies, a period of over three decades. -Nor did he con- fine himself to any special activity. Public L1- brary Board, Town Council, Board of Trade, Board of Education, Hospital Board, Children s_ Aid 'Society-to all of these he gave freely of his time and. talents. He never shirked respon- sibility and when he accepted duties he saw them through to completion.` Thoroughness and attention -to detail "always 'characterizedr .-his, work, as any who were associated with him on any of these boards will testify. in every way he was a good citizen and `his services to the com- munitywill not-soon be `forgotten. -. ` In `hie ru-nCA'c:nr| ha aninunri an nnvinhln rP- ` IIIUIIILJ Wlll HUICDUUII LID lUl8ULL|:|lo 1 in his profession he enjoyed an enviable re- putation as -a sound lawyer while he practiced.

It is greatly regretted that he -was spared `such a short time I to the distinguished position with which `he was i honored and which he had proved himself so well qualified to fill. Yes, it looks as though Mr. Bowes chat s- 1 worth something. A H "A mill hand has become an ooera singer. And ? a contemporary suggests that the mills should reciprocate. County Council dissolved just in time to! save some of ihe mem`ber s from going home to distant points on snow-shoes. LUD- But further, there was the fact that both Mr. Simpson and Mr. McKnight were often requir- ed to work late into the evening in order to clear up and cfompile the information required `before pensions could be recommended. lt was obvious that the County Council could not ex- pect these men to put in all t'his overtime with- out some remuneration and the best method of solving the problem was to declare a seven- hour day. This was satisfactory to Mr. Simpson and Mr. McKnight which is a good thing be- cause both of them deserve a great deal of cre- l dit for getting the Old Age Pensions system off ; to :1 good start in Simcoe County. Psyclriatrists are clever. They have discover- ed that when a fellow does something wrong 1 there is something wrong with him. Mr. Craig having had two three-year terms in the mayor : chair, the ratepayersapparently saw no reason why Mayor McCuaig should not -he accorded a third term. - ' Why should the countv council waste time`l Jiscussiiig whether or not. the per diem allowl -:1`nce should be paid members in certain cases? If members are on the job they should be paid, but not otherwise. " Roads of the county are worse than they were in 1914, according to one member of the ` County Council. We d-like to see that gentle- man ride over those good, old fashioned roads at 45 miles an hour in an old Ford car. i Reeve Charles Lovering of Matchedash com- plained that money was being thrown away on roads in scoop-shovel fulls. `No doubt when he got back to Matchedash from County Coun- cil he found his constituents using sco0p-shov-- els to clear out the roads.

SUNDAY TRUCKING Milverton- Sun-The Whitby Gazet_te complains that trucking on the highways on Sunday is on the increase, loads of furniture and other goods being seen passing through the town all day long. There is no doubt this is a matter for the Lord s Day Alliance to look into..vLocal freighting on the railways was stopped some years ago and it is not fair that trucking` companies, who are the greatest competitors -of our railways, should be allowed i this advantage over them. And besides they are the greatest roadhogs on the highways and traific on these days iseongested without them. NEW sr.4TE or MIND NEEDED Farmer's Sun--Waste not, want not. A- penny saved is a. penny earned. Perhaps the public mind.will now be open to this kind of-homely indoctrination. Anyhow, it must be preached in season and out. Our greatest need at present is a new state of mind. One way to get it is to ` expel from 1t.for good and all the crazy ideas of jazzed `nanceiwhich have been shouted and practised so long that even ordinarily sensible people began to think. that there is some truth in them. But `there never was, as millions of rueful people are now readyto admit, having learned better the hard and expensive school of ex- perlence. 1 ADVERTISING TEMPERANCE Pembroke Standard--'1"he Ferguson` Government has decreea that neither distillers nor brewers can ad- vertise their products in ,Ontario.\ Advertisements must not appear on bill boards nor` in the newspapers, -So far as the papers are concerned there were very few of them carrying liquor advertisements anyway, so this law does not mean any loss of revenue to them. However, the Government has decided, or has intimated, that leaflets ~n temperance shall be given with every: purchase of "'!_r and it will not be long until they discover that this -':l.~c. "as not the wisest to adopt. Why not use the Dress ~:' o:~.::_-op for this purpose just the same as they do to l `rlitcafe the people` about ,the use of our highways? UC). The plan adopted for dealing with applica- tions for this kind of relief .is that Messrs. Mc- Knight and Simpson do all the preliminary work and have an extensive batc of reports and forms prepared for considerati_0n of the whole hoard. In this way the other members do not have to meet so often and are thereby spar- ed inconvenience while the county is saved the money that would be entailed by their attend- ` an-ce. it was pointed out that Mr. Simpson could ` draw no mileage `at all and, as Mr. McKnight ` stayed on the job for several days at a time his revenue from this source would be negligi- l hle. l 1' 11 , 11 , --L1._[....L J.L,.L LALL ll.-\ -j_.:- 'rH_1-: LATE JUDGE.ROSS OPINIONS OF OTHERS EDITORIAL NOTES L \PARTR|DEEr%E new news M-.9. .
