stouffville should be a firm believer in the biblical say ing the last shall be first and the first last he was last on the bal lot paper but came out first in the election priutingwjl come a triflle higher for rural municipalities this year all farmers wives must be added ti the assessment roll by the assessor and when the voters list are printed they will be a mighty sight larger than in previous years but then the ratepayers shouldnt grumble about paying to put the women on the list when they are satisfied to pay for the men voters in stouff ville 200 additional names will be added and in whitchurch township goo names extra will be added this amendment to the municipal act pssned by the 1922 legislative be came effective on jan 1st 1923 the speaker in the mennonite church on sunday evening in the course of his sermon chanced to re mark how ready some peopfe are to dole out their thousands to strang ers or to foolish projects of which they know little about how many of our readers have been foolish in investing money in a commonly dis cussed western venture and today repent their notion a prosperous farmer in scott township ontario county has just ontoaveored to settle with his creditors at 2 be on the dollar largely because he trusted his money to strangers the writer recalls one or two aged cou ples who are in straightened circum stances today through the same mis take a desire for undue returns on their money imagining they would get it through strangers it is a question whether the aver age rural community appreciates the tremendous force that can be exerted through united effort along any line given a certain reasonable and feasible purpose and design and the will to accomplish there is little that cannot be accomplished through the hearty cooperation or a unniber of men and women who wiil work to gether in harmony an individual can do much through sheer force of will and unflagging in dustry but when a number of indiv iduals bring to the accomplishment of an undertaking all their resources of labor and determination and work toward a common end in united and harmonious manner they oan do wonders and a getting together of our stouffville citizens that shall elimin ate all factionalism pergonal griev ances petty malice and jealousies from everything pertaining to the general welfare of the town in a manufacturing commercial and busi ness way will do for this town more than has ever before been accom plished for it in any other manner the key to the situation is united harmonious action a putting to the wheel of every shoulder and the dis carding of the besetting sins of sel fishness jealousy political jangling malice and knocking add to this a little fuller realization by everybody that jte can do and should do his pro- 1r share according to his ability to promote local interests and there will be such a public spirit that will accomplish great things i goodwood many still have colds lucky are they who

express the sym pathy of the community in their re cent misfortune the webbs school thats an awful old barracks that has been doing service as a school for many years over in uxbridge township in webbs division which adjoins claremont school section to the north its an old frame build ing and the wind whistles through the crevices as freely as it ever did through the chinks in a pioneer log school after the plaster subsided as a fuel consumer the old box stove in webbs school could get away with as much wood as the fire place in a lumber camp no pupils or eachers ener died of pneumonia con tracted there but it greatly stimu lated the handkerchief trade in zero weather that portion of the boys or girls anatomy near the stove was nearly roasted and the portion away from the fire was nearly frozen its a lonely old school in a lonely locality and outsiders rather shy at the prospect of teaching there young lady from webbs dlvist od tlui tribune last week si knows for she attended that schoo and although it is home sweet hom she realizes it is a lonesome spot and one that would not attract a good teacher now the inspector t r fergu sou of uxbridge has ordered a new school or oae of these days the legislative grant will be cut off the section ratepayers realize the necessity for a change from the old order but the question is should a new school he built or should the ratepayers form a consolidated school section with claremont as reported in a recent issue a meeting of ratepayers flatly voted down a proposal to unite with clare mont consolidated schools are not gripping the country very noticeably and webbs ratepayers are not anxi ous to be one of the first to break the ice in any event before another win ter both teacher and pupils will be or should be comfortably housed in a warm comfortable building so far no one lias been in to suggest to this paper that the old school should bo repaired we invito discussion on the matter and freely open the col
