The roots going deep into thei soil of the country! The branches spreading wide,: offering shade and shelter! The tree ever strivâ€", ing upward, seeking the light! If this is the aim, the purpose, the design, of the University of Toâ€"| ronto, it is well for the province and the people. It would be well, indeed, if this were the aspiration' of every universityâ€"every seat of learnffi)glof! education in general,â€""to grow like a tree." It would be a noble motto for a town, a nation, the individualâ€""to grow like a tree"â€"deepâ€"rooted, broad in its branches, seeking the sky. The modâ€" ern trend is to growth, but too often it is growth without purposeâ€"growth like the weeds; too often it is growth, without security,â€"there are no strong roots to hold against wind and weather; too often, there is no. upward reach,â€"no high ideals and aspirations. In a few, brief, vivid words, President Cody pictured true growthâ€"‘"to grow like a tree," with health, balance, beauty, high purpose, firm faith. Dublin speech that "eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." There doesn‘t appear to be much vigilance these days, and as a Cconsequence the liberty that British people struggled and fought to attain is gradually being filched by Sovietâ€"minded individuals. For a few dollars to ease the burden| of relief a great many municipalities appear to| have traded off their rights and privileges to the provincial government. In other cases the fact that the municipality has solicited aid from the province in the matter of bonds or debentures has been taken as excuse for the province assuming a dictatorship over the municipality. The other day North Bay was told it could not appoint a city solicitor without the approval of the provincial authorities. Sudbury has had its difficulties in| conducting its own affairs without interference from provincial authorities,. For months the pro-l vince refused or neglected to permit the paymenti of Sudbury police because the province had not been consulted previous to their appointment. I6 is all very well to reply that if the municipalities ask the province to aid them they must expect the province to hold some supervision. The truth is that this soâ€"called supervision is being extended to municipalities that have received no special assistance and have asked no favours from the province. To suggest that municipalities are not fit to conduct their own affairs is to beg the question. Certainly the municipalities have shown as much competence and carefulness as the provincial and Dominion governments. The truth is that there is a presentâ€"day tendency, especially on the part of the government at Toâ€" ronto to filch from the municipalities the powers and privileges that they possess. As a matter of fact men come closer to selfâ€"government in their municipal administration than in any other deâ€" John Philpot Curran is credited with stating in a\ i Cbe Vorrutpine Advanee Another Merger in the Porcupine Area The activity in the Porcupine go‘d area is indicated by ‘several mergers and combinations leooking to increased development of the territory affecte2d. One of the latest mergers is that of the Preston East Dome and the two adjoinâ€" ing properties known respectively as the Royal Dome and the Judson Gold Mines Negotiations have been und:tr way in regard to this merger for some time past, and last week i was reported on reliable authority that an agrsement had been reached wherety the Preston East Dome would take over the Judson and the Royal Dome. The two proâ€" perties will add something like 200 more acres to the Preston East Dome holdings. It is understood that with the comp.etion Pl the merger the Presâ€" ton East Dume will have a total dcreâ€" ‘reston East Dome Adds Two Other Properties to Holdings.

Uniteq Statesâ€"$3.00 Per Year i age of over 320 acres of contiguous minâ€" \ing land, the respec ive claims repreâ€" sented in the holdings all being favourâ€" able ground. In referring last week to the merger \of the Freston East Dome and the | Judson and Royal Dome properties, The ‘North;m Miner says:â€""The merged ‘properties, adjoining Dome on the l south, will cover a mile and a half along ‘the south porphyry contact, the north icantact of which on Dome xround has lproduoed some $70,000,000 in gold. On ; the Preston group very lit:le work has becn done, but location and known geoâ€" logical conditions would ssem to mark the ground as an important exploratory |bet. Most of Preston East Dome‘s preâ€" vious work has been conducted on its ! Clifton property to the southwest, but last year a diamond drill hole was put down on the Preston north:ast claim for geological information. Work on | Dome‘s lith level is stated to have adâ€" | vanced to within 300 ft. of the Preston I northeast corner and diamond drilling | this fall is reported to have cut values / within 200 ft. of the Preston boundary. 1 The Northern Miner learns that a reâ€" !sponsible group is benind the merger ‘ and that a substantial cash sum is to be partment of government. If they allow muniâ€" cipal government to be stolen from them they will lose all reai selfâ€"government. Yet people seem to be sitting back meekly while apparently Sovietâ€" minded individuals take over all manner of forms of government powers. The repudiation of conâ€" tracts was a regrettable matter, but much more (and more typical) was the stealing away of the right to appeal to the courts in the matter. On a par with this was the special legislation taking away five children from the care of their lawful parents, the right to appeal to the courts in the matter being denied the parents for the first time in the history of the province. Britishers in thel past give their efforts, their lives, to assure certain fundamental liberties and securities. If they exâ€" ercised any of Curran‘s "eternal vigilance" they could see these rights being stolen before their eyes on one excuse or another. The affairs of municipality should rest on the decision of that municipality within certain prescribed limits. The tendency to inaugurate complete dictatorship from Queen‘s Park should be resented and repulsâ€" ed.

In the interests of the health and comfort of the people of the town any such ‘mstitufiion should be located away from the town. In the interests of the people of the town it would be best to have the slaughter house under full municipal control. The general question from ratepayers seems to be:â€""Why not proceed with the previous plans to establish a municipal slaughâ€" ter house on the site chosen on town property on the outskirts of the town?" Harry Anderson has resigned as editorâ€"inâ€"chief of The Toronto Globe. That‘s bad news. A. A. McIntosh assistant managing editor since 1929, will succeed Mr. Anderson as managing editor. That means the Scots will still hold The Globe, and the Scotsmen in Canada will still have their Bible. That makes the news not so bad. Among the innumerable eulogies of King George V. there seems to be a tendency to forget the great part played in the glory of his reign by his beloved Queen. It is well to remember that the greatness of the rule of King George V, both as regards his influence and his power, seemed to be centred around his home life and the domestic virtues. The Queen was his constant companion, his true helpmate. On more than one occasion King George V. made reference to this fact. All honour to King George V, and honour, too, to Queen Mary, whose advice and support and assistance strengthened his hands and upheld him through prosperous and through trying days. There is very general regret at the serious inâ€" jury sustained by Fireman wW. Boyd while on duty last Thursday morning at the fire in St. Anthony‘s church. Every good citizen sincerely hopes for his early and complete recovery. At the present time, while sympathy is so general for this injured fireman, it would be well to consider the risk that! is the constant companion of every man on the fire brigade. There is never a fireâ€"never, indeed, a false alarmâ€"that the firemen do not run the risk of injury or death in the doing of their duty. On many an occasion in the past The Advance has pointed out this fact. The injury to Fireman Boyd proves its sad truth. What happened to him might have happened to six other members of the brigade last Thursday. The mass of ice that fell from the eaves and fractured Fireman Boya‘s skull dropped close to half a dozen other firemen. It fairly grazed the side of Fire Chief Borland. NO carefulness, no thought, can avoid such accidents. These are the risks that the gallant firefighters take in their duty. They know the risks and take them cheerfully for the sake of service. Because of this is it too much to say that they merit the highâ€" est honour and the most considerate thought from call citizens. advanced to finance an exploratory campaign under the supervision _ of Douglas G. H. Wright, wellâ€"known conâ€" sulting geologist. The first payment of $25,000 on a firm commitment has alâ€" ready been advanced." It is understood that details of the merger and a proposed plan of the reâ€" organization will be provided for shareâ€" holders this week. Preston East Dome has an authorized capitalization of 3.000,000 shares of $1 par value, of which 2.805,000 were issued at last reports. It is expected that with the substaniial cash accruing to the company under the plans of the merger it will be posâ€" sible to procsed with an extended proâ€" gramme of exploration and developâ€" ment at the property.
