extra for the markers why charge a dollar for the markers when they 03t only 23 cents the amount paid to municipali ties in ontario in 1922 for the up keep of their roads being at the rate of 20 of the amount expended on roads was 70134961 we notice by the county council minutes of york which are just pub lished that geo s henry and en gineer james of york county were each paid 5862 for their jaunt last year to the good roads convention held in chicago the two cents was likely given in tips premier drury has announced that there will be a provincial election in ontario about the third w6ek in june this means that the campaign will be carried on during part of the seeding time but it will be a short fight as the members give us very little information during their ten ure of office as to what they are doing in parliament too short a campaign should not be arranged its the only time we hear from our representatives as a rule the editor of the uxbridge jour nal is a progressive educationistand condemns the drury government for suspending the adolescent school act so that those in rural sections between 16 and 18 years of agewill not be compelled to attend school if the parents do not wish them to we think that mr drury is on the right track as the present act is the very thing responsible for the great congestion in schools but it is not the only cause of course the journal should he one of the last papers to complain about a suspen sion of this act when uxbridge itself is being forced to build a 90000 school to relieve the congestion of the older building which is a tine edifice in addition the town is shortly to send a committee to the government appealing for relief of sort in building the new consistency thou art a to the women of stouffville i i the next meeting of the womens t 1 liberal club will be held at the i home of mrs w j thompson on tuesday april 24th at s pm a full turnout is expected in view of the j ladies now having the full franchise j premier king has addressed the i women of ontario in part in these terms i as respects dominion and provln- i cial politics the women of ontario have now the suffrage on an equal- i lty with men this newly acquired j right brings with it a corresponding 1 obligation there can be nothing but gain to the nation from the in telligent use of this new power nothing but loss through indifference to or neglect of it there are many public problems which are not less mens problems than womensbut which women have special opportunity of studying and- understanding women naturally approach public affairs from the standpoint of the family and the home there is no ideal of public service higher than that of improv ing the homes of the eountry and affording every opportunity for the education and development of the children and bettering the standards of living of the families the home is the test of civilization in this respect as in others women can do much to advance the cause of good government in this great work the liberal party needs your help it does not come to you asking only for your votes on election day we want your hearts and your intellects your sentiments and your ideas every day each of you may do something to enrich liberalism and promote the welfare of canada and its peo ple recreation wreckreation some school jewel the bill now before the legisla ture to do away with the office of deputy reeves introduced by hon g s henry is a step in the right direction double voting power would be given to those municipali ties entitled now to a reeve and deputy or if they have two deputies then three votes would be allowed the reeve from that municipality we hear so much about being over- governed that here looks like a good place to cut down in york county there are about 17 deputy reeves and they get 5 per day when in session so that a saving on an average session of six days would be s5 plus mileage being a total saving of over 100 per session play is what we do when we are free to do what we will it is the free and spontaneous expression of what is in us of inner desires emotions tastes talents fancies powers look at the things we do when dull care and drab work may be dropped and we are free we whfstle sing play games go fishing camp out dig in flower gardens cut grass go walking or riding fancy fowl or pigs or ponies or farms in most all these things there is considerable work but we do not think of them as work because they are done in the spirit of play we are doing what we wish to do it is not the activity itself that is work but our attitude toward it that makes it work or play even cooking or plowing or office work may be done in a spirit which brings all the enjoyment and benefits of play play under the right conditions is both creative and recreative it gives birth to new tastes feelings and powers and reconstructs old ones and it does these things fpr the whole man the physical mental nervous social moral and religious for the development of these sides to our nature it is most vital and has the highest sort of value in fact take play out of life the spirit of giveandtake the indulgence of grip or joke the enjoyment of free expression of at least some part of ourselves- take this out of the life of either old or young and life be comes drudgery and our souls as dry as summers dust but it is because play is so vital so central so important in the deve lopment of personality that it is most dangerous the greatest truths have the most danger points as the character of a man is shown by what he does with leisure so the charac ter of a boy is formed in his play this is a solemn truth we d not know how true it is until we stop to think much character is moulded in play life it is not what the boy learns at home or in sunday school but what he carries out onto the play grounds and plays there that implants itself into the boys soul and becomes a part of the boy in and there are always three sessions play life there is always developed per year with twoweeks sittings an attitude some attitude a right and this year it was three weeks or wrong attitude towards all the if this bill becomes law our own elements of christian character county alone would profit by some play tests constantly at the points pf 1000 yearly but think oof the sav- loyalty courtesy selfcontrol ap ing all over the province preciation
