Arthur Johnson, newly. ap- pointed head of the Salvation `Army in Barrie, delivered his .'inaugural messages at the Army Citadel on Sun- day last, A meeting at vwhich"Capt. and Mrs.-Johnson and their family were welcomed to their new charge was held on Thursday evening and further expressions of welcome were voiced on Sunday at the evening ser- vice.

Johnson was thirty years old when he entered the ranks of the,Sal- ~vation Army but since that time he has crowded into seven years a record of service which another man might have taken much longer to accom- plish. He was born on a farm near Uxbridge"and attended Utica public school as a boy. Early in life he left the rural district and went to Toron- to where he learned the carpentry trade which he followed with success until entering the Army training school. His marriage took place in Toronto sixteen years ago, _and when, Capt. Johnson took the training course his wife did likewise. Their rst appointment was to Hamilton where devoted service resulted in a greatly strengthened corps at the end of two years when they went to Par- is. After a year at Paris Capt. and Mrs. Johnson spent two years in Wel- land, -going from there to` Simcoe. Previous to coming to Barrie they were in London for a short time. 7'..--u Lnuvn J-`nunn nludltinnvu IJUVC, -auu UIIECU IIID JIUII-lGl.l\VB U81 _l.IllU words `found in the twenty-.second`and third verses of the `fth chapter_ of Galatians.

The text in the evening was from Luke 24:36, And. Jesus stood in the/midst of them and said `Peace be unto you . It wascpointed out that the Saviour comes into on s heart with joy, never with sad- ness, and that the person who takes Christ into his heart will bevhappy. At the close of the service Capt. Johnson told the assembled members of the Army that as their officer he would be ever in readiness to be of whatever assistance he `could to them. f1.._L TA'I.u.p-`Ann `Irina 6-1n:md-iv uvnnua A11` were In uuuuuu .LUl.' it suuu. uuuc. | Thev have three children.

Magistrate Jeffs took theview . that a term of imprisonment would not have a salutary effect on McC.oll. He was ordered to pay the costs of the court, to not leave Essa township and to report to the office of the pro- vincial police once. a month for a uvnn-In I Year. BARRIE TENNIS TEAM , IN FOURTH ROUND} I0N"A'BLET Barrie won every event `in a sud-H den-death match against Listowell,,3` in the third round of the Western l.

The advisory board had also dis- covered that on fteen per cent. of countyvroads no money had A been spent, indicating that _either these roads were not ofgsufficient import- ance or that `the systemswere too large, so they concluded thatfteen per cent.` might be deleted. Simcoe is a big county with a big road system and the roads have not been improved as the county had a_ right to expect. It was asking too much of one man to put 450 miles of road under one engineer and expect him to look after it. ' Mr. Squire pointed out that there are 1800 miles in the provincial high- way system. and there are nine resi- dencies, each man having 200* miles [of road to look after. n-1.~__._-__-.. 1.- __.-1_..:.:|:;... 1u .. o.....:.... `Iv 1 * I U1. ruuu DU IUUIS uLhU1'.' _ Referring to subsidies-, Mr. Squire stated that Simcoe county had three times as much county road as county- ' provincial. The .former received a grant of forty per cent. and the latter sixty per cent. The `average grant through the province was `forty-seven _per cent. Some counties averaged as -low as forty and others as high as i-fty-`three. `Consequently the De- partment _felt justified in doing awayl with the two classes of road and mak-' ing a grant of ftyper cent. The township subsidy had also been'in- creased from twenty to thirty per cent.` - - I 1u'__ 1ur--:.. ..1...4....J LL.-.1. 1...: 1...! .-3:".-n l CHI , Mr. Muir stated that he` had given the question of county - highway! systems much thought for the `past seven years_and that in preparing the . map the Department had tried to be fair. 'They had rst `suggested 216% ,miles and this had later been increas- I, 1 ed to about 280. At a later meeting ;on July 13 two -roads were addedi bringing the system to 292. miles.l This he thought was a reasonable `amount for one man to look after. I ` Members Ask Changes The representatives of the various municipalities were then heard. The! lrst complaint came from Reeve Rusk of `Barrie who asked that the county road from the `west be changed from Tiffin St. to Elizabeth St., pointing Iout, that the latter is a great deal, lmore.used than Tiffin St. ~n-_--_ 1m_..:.:... .: `r......:..t.`.1 ....1;n.1l P.-m 'more.useu Luau 1.111.111 Db. Reeve Martin of Innisl asked for three miles from Churchill to the lake. The traffic on this road, he said, is almost as heavy as that on the provincial highway due to the num- ber o summer visitors and it is a| very hard piece of road to keep.up. Mr. Squire admitted the traffic con- ditions but` explained that recent legislation permits the -municipality` ito levy a special assessment against property on this road for road work. The summer- people there won"; ob-l ject to a special rate for that `pur- |'pose,ihesaid. 4 pose," ne -sa1u. asked for about ve miles from :Co1dwater to the sixth concession.

Deputy-reeve McDuff of Oro was not at all satisfied with the way Oro had been dealt with in the revision of the highway system. The people in the north part of the township, he complained, had no road at all. In the, south they are not so badly off with the Provincial highway and the Edgar road but north. `of the height of land there is nothing. Mr. McDuff felt that Oro, being the fifth largest contribu- -tor to the county revenue among the townships, deserved more consider- ation. The provincial highway" does not serve local traffic. he declared. It is all right for American" tourists,- but the American tourists do not stop in` Oro. ' _ Qnnn1:'la`ln_fa1n-uni` ninnllfn D uu1uucuc- LFLGJ IAUL Jzanyu vu The most contentious point oil the day_was the road leading south]- from Wasaga Beach. The choice lay between the second line of Nottawa- saga to the own of Stayner and the town line between Nottawasaga and Sunnidale, two miles to the east. The matter had been threshed ,out on the floor-`of the council chamber on two previous occasions, each time result- ing intthe town line beingchosen, but in spite of this .the Department had designated the second line as a*county road instead of the town line, feeling -that Stajmer -was too important a cen- tre to be side-tracked.

The town line,` he stated, carries all . the traffic from Innisfil, Essa and the south to Waaga Beach and if -the road were changed these people would have ,_to go two miles 1 west `and then back again. He had had 3. traffic census taken on the two roads on a.. recent Sunday and produced sworn statements showing that on the town line there were 729 cars and 49 horse-drawn vehicles and on the se- cond Iline during" the sametime there were 132 cars and four buggies and . `wagons.

Sow Tohistle Menace The road question having been fin-_ ally disposed of, Warden McKinlay called _the attention of the members, to the prevalence of the sow thistle throughout'the' county and stated this weed is spreading alarmingly and has become a grave menace to farmers. Coun. Drysdale spoke on the same matter. They urged that the Govern-. iment take steps to help eradicate it. ` Repairing Detours I` Coun. Hambly asked the Deputy Minister what was he attitude of the `Department regardi g maintenance of. township roads used as detours during! provincial highway construction. He stated that it had cost his township $1200 to put one piece of road in shape last year. The question, he said, was one of vital importanceto every mun-| icipality.

With regard` to West Gwillimbury, he said that the township would receive an additional twenty per cent. subsidy for such roads, as mentioned by Coun. Hambly, giv-i ing them the status of county roads. ; Damages Claimed 3 Notice was received of injury to T.| Mccaskey, Marie McCaskey and Jos.r Adams as result of an accident on the] ninth line `of Flos, north of Elmvale,; on July 26, caused, it was claimed, by _the` condition of the road which was` under construction.
