town council had in tended to submit the matter to the electors in january of having a cer tain portion of their council elected for two year terms it was found out however that such a system of municipal council election is not pro vided for under the present statutes of ontario says the barrie examiner- the old scriptural injunction that the poor you have always with you is as true today as it was when utter ed two thousand years ago says the walkerton herald but instead of lazarus sitting at the gate and dogs licking his sores we have the indi gents listening in on the radio or playing the piano at the house of refuge and in fact so happy and contented are they that when 29 of them were granted the old age pen sion the other day they with one accord decided to remain in the refuge and let the world roll on the county going through the form ality of collecting the money and applying it towards their keep but walkerton which a critic described as the home of pride poverty and pianos comes to the front with bells on in the matter of old age pensions and leads all other municipalities in the county with 21 pensioners on the list n a flurry was created in almonte municipal circles when it became known that all members of the board of education who numbered among them some of the most in fluential citizens of almonte had re signed in a body this action follow ed a period of opposition by the town council to the board of edu cation the board acting in concert with provincil authorities to carry out departmental demands for better school accommodations at the least possible expense to the ratepayers requested the town council to sub mil a bylaw to the ratepapers the council refused litigation resulted and while the council won on technicality the matter is by no means settled the members of the board feeling that they cannot inaks headway have resigned to make room for the appointment of those who have been opposing the board and in hope that these opponents have a better policy which will solve the educational problems of almonte at the nomination meeting no names were put in nomination and it was stated that another meeting would have to be held wo have heard the complaint made unit churches paid too much attention to the collection plate and talked too much about money in this way peopio were being driv en away or kept away from church it always did soem that such criti cism was more invented than real because most of the churches around hcr are quite free from excessive collecting methods listening to some of the sunday evening sermons and services that come over the radio from united states gives one the idea though that somo of this criticism is not so very far off the mark a recent sunday evoning there was the start of some large campaign in buffalo a great evangelist was brought there for the occasion and there was so great a orowd that peopio were standing then came the announcement about the offering nndtho prayer before it was taken in that pray er a preacher asked the lork not to allow any person to give more than he should and also not let any person escape without putting in all that he was able to contribute that did seem to be a sort of a tubthumping way to unburden the soul to almighty god wc cant imagino by any stretch of the ima gination that the lord would look over the results of that collection in buffalo and suit a special blessing to each contributor such as was suggested in the prayer we doubt whothcr the lord pays much attention to many such peti tions peopio who make them arc sitting in churches that are mighty comfortable places they are listen ing to ten thousand dollar pipe or gans and paid singers there is plenty of evidence of wealth all around them see the new ford bodies at
