Long, minister of Col- lier St. United Church, gave a very ne Dominion Day message at Ki- wanis on Monday night. Tracing the economic and social phases in our }u'story, he believed that We were coming into a new phase, with the breaking down of nationalism, which has been so marked in the past cen- tury, and the co-operating of nat- ions for the common good. Canada, with her vast area and amazing potenmialities, has an important part to"p1ay'in this. TL- L:._A.-.___ ,1 .1 'r\ vv gnu; nu muc- The history of the Dominion goes back to the time when French ex- plorers landed on our shore, bring- ing with them French culture, F`reynch language and French form of government. French colonization in Canada started primarily to exploit the fur trade, for in France, in -Eritain, this country was known to be rich in fur-bearing animals. For more than half a century fur was the main impetus for colonizing` the country. nu _ __.._.., . Then there was a shift by con- quest from Frenc-I1 to English, and Canada became known as a source for lumber, our second economic phase.

During the month of June the ; Provincial Old Age Pension Commis- sion granted seventeen applications for old age pension to residents 01 Simcoe County. Against this there V were twenty-one deaths, making a net decrease of four in the county list. The commission also reported the refusal of two applications. Two applications previously refused by the Onrtario Board were also granted last month. The reasons for their previous refusal was that one had not been a resident of the county long enough and the othei was not of age at the time applica- tion was led.

Cameron, of Toronto, met with the council re- garding his property on Vancouver St. At the request of Mayor Rob- nrtson he occupied a place on the dias. At the last regular meeting of council it was decided to have Mr. Cameron remove his garage back off the street, the same to be done by Sept. 1st, and it was in re ference to this matter that he ad- dressed the members. He admitted encroaching on Vancouver St., but felt that his ower garden was an asset toward beautifying this section of the town. He suggested that the council g-ive him a lease to use part of the street, which did not in any way interfere with the grading, to be removable at any time at the requesut of the town. He maintain- ed that by movin_.r: his garage and flower garden back a few feet would put him to considerab`c expense, lJ11'!l.{.
