apart when the mothers of the continent and their part in the nationbuilding are recognized and extoll ed the other days should be just as full of mother thoughts but usually they urent and on this one day it is not too much to ask that mother get undivided attention it you arc away from home send her a letter and a little remembrance and the wearing of u colored llower in her honor is not much to ask if she has pusscd on to the great beyond jtnd only u memory of her and her influence remains wear a white llower to honor that memory and give a few minutes during the day to reflection sunday next is mothers day cheaper liability insurance the liability insurance carried by municipalise throughout the province is at the present time coming in for much consideration judging from reports of municipal proceedings in many communi ties two companies are very much after this busi ness ut the present time and nt the last meeting of acton council this was the main subject under discussion the globe indemnity company has carried much of this type of insurance but now a new company of messrs pliixton nnd hueston are in the field falmerston we read accepted the reduced rate offered by the new

secured in premiums is well worthy of consideration nnd citizens have been well represented by their council in making n full investigation iropohcd at the wrong time the wisdom of the new provincial government corporation tax is being questipobed by many who are intimate with business condifmmu generally the mail and empire says in this connection many of the corpora toions thus levied upon are the chief sources of employment for the wageem ners of the community owing to tho world depression they have all the burdens they are able to carry nothing should be done to increase their dilllculties or lessen their power to provide work for the unemployt d in saying this we are fully awake to the revenue exigencies of all governments at this time with taxes and assessments creeping in from many quarters business institutions are being made ii sort of tax collection agency for revenues which governments do not dare to levy directly business today needs every encouragement if more employment is to be given whero action ihiu spoken if the cemetery board was composed of men whose heads would swell with merited praise these days there are three men in acton who would require new hats put fortunately praise or blame bay little effect on messrs ii m mcdonald j bell and c ilansen the first conception of the transformation in fairview cemetery was quite discernible this week the terraced section in the beautiful grove has been a source of admiration by all who have viewed the work the display of the handiwork and artistry of the board and their workers will secure the co operation of all in other endeavors that they may undertake in various parts of the cemetery in the work of beautifying this sacred spot there has been no general upheaval but n wellordered plan seems to be quite apparent in the undertakings now to be viewed and in course of planning many other desirnhle improvements can be pointed out as fitting nnd seemingly necessnry but the start made has inspired the approval of nil nnd the work further planned will receive the hearty support of thosj deeply interested we add our compliment to the other wellmerited ones the board is receiving these

lint acton schools nttnined in the county musical festival nt milton on friday hns been a great source- of pride and satisfaction to citizens nnd parents generally the importance of the musical education in the schools has long been recognized as n valuable pnrt of the childs educa tion in acton to find that acton jias reached such a splendid position in its musical education system must be a source of gratification to everyone as well us teachers nnd jftipils much of the praise is un doubtedly due to mrs m r moore whose ability and faithfulness hnve betm largely responsible for the success nttuinqd to the pupils ability nnd fuithful attendance at practice nnd attention to discipline a share of the credit must also be given that threes of the prize soloists of the children of the county should be locnted in acton would also seem to point that individual talent is nlso to be found in this community the value of this training to the chil dren cannot be overestimated acton in this nnd other generations is having a love tor music incul cated that will be long an asset to the community congratulations on thesuccess attained are gladly extended to those whoso patience and ability have made the achievement possible that they will go on to new and grcoter attainments from this splendid musical foundation is tho wish of everyone just as in hockey or any other endeavor it
