While the whole of the people ofOntario have con- tributed to the building of highways in the past, it may be expected that the cost of repairs and main- tenance will fall more and more on those who use the roads. The trafc which does most damage, naturally will be expected to pay most. To save the highways from unnecessary damage during the wet spring months when foundations are easily fractured and road surfaces broken, The High- ways Act provides that during March and April trucks (outside cities and towns) shall not be loaded in excess of one-half the carrying capacity of such vehicle as registered with the Department, without obtaining a per- mit as provided in Section 31." The attention of every truck owner and driver is called specically to this provision. In their own in- terest the Department urges their co-operation in obeying the law. In view of this public statement of the law, they are notified that rigorous prosecution will follow neglect or refusal to do so. NOW IS THE i TI_ME_. _ 'I1'-.-.. l\.__I`.. .l-.. ..

This recommendation would call for doing away with one class of county roads which now ex- ists.

Your committee would recommend that the government s contribution to roads -be fty .per cent. 10;," _, _.,,,,,,, I After recommending the appoint- ment of a provinciabassessment commission, the report goes to ex- plain its suggestion of graded grants, stating: In reviewing the nposition taken by a number of the states which have zhighway problems sim- ilar to those of Ontario, we nd that they have adopted `a .plan of -graded grants towards highway construction. The prcentage of these grants is based UJPOYI the ability of the mun- icipality to -pay; the counties [having a smaller equalized assessment re- ceiving a larger rpercentage of gov- ernment assistance than the counties with a `higher assessment.

The equalization of assessment, which is an important factor in the policy outlined, would be accomplish- appointment of a Pro- vincial Assessment Commission, an entirely new departure in the mun- icipal affairs of Ontario. The re- classification of roads would `also be carried out by an independen-t sbody appointed for the punpose. The roads would be redesignated so that in place of the present 40 and 60 per cent. highways there would be only one class, a 50 per cent. highway. Reclassifying Road-s Upon the matter of reclassication, the report states in part: Under the. county system as it developed, the portion of road tax paid by the municipalities into the county treasury has been supplemented by the government contriibution, and this amount was then expended in the township so contributing. It can, therefore, be easily a-ppreciatenl that many townships, :having a small assessment and a large road mileage, were asked to construct and maintain roads which would be sub- jected to trafc other than local out of all [proportion /to their ability to nnv- flan urnnlflninun efnuvnul-dun ALL.-.2- JUDGE MOTT SPEAKS ON CHILD WELFARE A complete thirty (lay all expense tour is being` arranged from Toronto to the North Pacic Coast, special train leaving; Toronto via Canadian National Railways, July 9th next.

Psycology should be applied in dealing with the boy. We` are all psycologists, though we may not realize lit. The instincts of life are the basic .fundamentals. Every na- tural boy is inquisitive; he wants to nd -out every thing, he gathers everything nhe can. This is essential, for the `boy is acquiring the power to gert. The wise mother will not curb this instinct, -but rather direct it -along" the right `paths. The pug`- nacious instinct which boys have is a valuable contrirbu-tion. It is a God-given power and teaches the boy to stand on his own feet. These instincts if rigwhtly directed will help `the `boy when he becomes a man to have power. They must develop normally and be kept in restraint, however. Anthur Patterson was the booster for the day and he provided six prizes for the ladies. They went to Mrs. Hardy, Mrs. H. A.
