Although much taken by sure prise Mr. Forsyth made a fitting reply, He had always enjoyed his association with the county council and it had been his honest en. deavor to secure co-operation in ils deliberations, With characteristic modesty he referred to the beginning of his public career when he was elected to the Claremont school board at the age of 22, He was a member of the board for 17 years and was then elec.ed to the Pickering town. ship council, For eight years he had belonged to the township board, during six of which he had been associated with the county coun- The provincial governments were much Mke county councils, but more ornate, while the Dominion government was still more ornate, Mr, Moore defined politics in the sense that it had to 'do with the af- fairs of all, When looked upon in this light it became the noblest and best service of man and not merely party strife, Full of Business The toast to the County of On: tario was ably proposed by Byron Stiver, reeve of Scott, who, accord. ing to rumor, may be a candidate] for the wardenship next year, It was replied to by Ex-Warden Al- bert W.

Shinto gods of heaven and earth sat at the meal served by the rul- er of 75,000,000 subjects as the fi- nal aet of his enthronement. The Daijo Sal, or great new food festival, was celebrated in the Shinto fAith by an Emperor clad in simple robes and sitting bare- foot on the floor of a bare, wooden hall, The food was of the simplest type, steamed rice and millet, fresh fish, fruits, seaweed broth, the broth of a shell fish called awa- bi and thin rice wine called sake. All except the wine were served in wooden boxes and eaten with chopsticks held only in the right hand. His Imperial Majesty, as head of the Shinto religion, had undergone spiritual purification for the meal for Rearly a year, He bathed in a sacred tub called the "onu no fune" or sacred bath boat, and was cleans- ed again with holy water before sitting down to the communion, Millions of persons throughout the country bowed in prayer as he broke bread h 1 the spirits which founded the Semi-mortal Nippon- ese dynasty more than 25 centuries Ago. . Faith, Humility Three words of the Shinto faith deseribe the banquet: "Faith, humility and reverence." A Profitable Habit EGULAR saving soon becomes a habit--one that is just as hard to break as any other--but one that is profitable, for it increases with interest and leads straight to greater comfort and happiness--to assured independence at a time when you will desire this above all things, Save regularly--at a bank, where your money is safe, steadily increased by inter- est, and always at hand to help you if you need it.
