pau two the tribune stouffville ont thursday october 15 1942 ed st it t 1 i t 1 i i 5i j0uffmue ribira established 1888 member of the canadian weekly newspaper association issued every thursday at stouffville ontario eight to twelve pages average circulation 1650 copies subscription kates per year in advance in canada 200 in ujsa 2s0 a v nolan son publishers notes and comments he ran a straight course the services of warden c e toole of whitchurch township were sought by york county council on the toronto york road commission and the big legislating body handed him the appointment along with a salary of 1500 per annum for his services warden toole who did absolutely no lobbying for the appointment after due con sideration decided to accept the appointment and county council hastily convened and passed the bylaw then the hon mr mcquestin declared the whole thing illegal and held that by no means can the county council attach a salary to the commissioners job reeve toole declared from the outset that the salary was a factor in his acceptance arid without pay he could not nor would not take on the job- his resignation last week when the strange stand taken by mr mcquestin became an obstacle is just what one would expect from a man likeearl toole he did not ask for the job said only he would take it if he could be compensated so that he could hire other help on his farm and when he found the couiity council could not live up to their part of the bargain he promptly resigned what we think of mr mcquestin will have to wait for another time no time for kicking who ever stepped out of their way to take a rap at the merchants of stouffville through the press last week for having decided to close their places of business each night at six oclock instead of remaining open on tuesday and thursday nights until ten oclock was to say the least a bit premature with their attack the merchants are en titled to sincerity of purpose in trying to save current within reason as they are urged to do and no one should lay a charge against them to the contrary without proryf none was given if business is lost from the shorter hours the merchant will find it out over a period i of time and he will probably in that event decide to lengthen his services again until such proof is given it is also premature to attack the merchant on this ground the fact that the rural stores throughout markham and- whitchurch are fast falling into line with shorter hours to save hydro is proof that it is not just a selfish move on the part of stouffville merchants and so disgruntled should bide his time until he can prove his arguments and after a lapse of time he may be unable to do so farm implements rationed- farm stock sales might well be expected to take an upward swing regarding prices since all lines of farm implements were placed on a rationing order last week no farmer can buy a new binder or manure spreader without showing he really has to have it and then the order is likely to be very slow in getting filled the only types of new farm machinery and equip ment exempt from the rationing order are attachments repair and spare parts tracklaying type tractors irrigation or drainage equipment hand tools and milkcooer refrigera tion units farmers will be required to prove their new equip ment by filing statements showing the numberof acres in crop and in summer fallow the number of cattle horses hogs and sheep ownedand descriptions of similar usable equipment already onthe farms dealers must also undertake to turn in for scrap any old machine which cannot be reconditioned- if it can be re paired dealers must state how soon the work can be com pleted i tradeins also are covered by the rationing order which requires farmers to describe the machines traded in and state whether or not they can be repaired if such equipment can be repaired fanners will be asked why they are making tradeins where farmers contemplate switching to power equipment from machinery suitable for horxs mules or oxen they also will be asked to give reasons for the change the order is designed to obtain equitable distribution of farm machinery of all types and it provides that- no farmer may apply more than once for any equipment by fil ing application through another dealer britain wants more bacon from canada what canadian farmers do this fall will

the lesson as a whole- growth in grace is growth in christ we are to grow up unto him in all things eph 415 ever be coming more like him that the world may see him in us to this end we need to feed on the word of god and v spend much time in communion iwith our heavenly father by prayer and meditation in hebrews 511 to 14 the inspired writer bewails the sad fact that so many of gods children make such slow progress in the spiritual life after years of christian pro fession they are still as babes in christ unable to appropriate and to digest the deeper spiritual truths of the scriptures but are such as japs are cleared out of the malay need to be fed upon the milk of the peninsula this condition promises to become more aoute and prosecu tions are expected to multiply no doubt about it

on the 25th of sept he called at the paisley cider mill and found two cream cans there for apple butter mr miller said he was not aware that he had transgressed the law in any way as he had hot read

more than ever essential and the proceeds of the loan will be devoted to these vital purposes we are now in a most critical stage of the war and the most critical year in the history of the british empire and of the do minion the enemy hordes have overr run vast territories and have en slaved entire nations so that it will demand unprecedented sacrifice and effort to save the world for freedom and reestablish tlie democratic peo pies within their rightful heritage of full and complete liberty the enormous costs of modern war create the most severe strain on the general economy of the country with the result that an increasing proportion already more than one- half of tlie national income must be applied to war purposes arid this corresponds to a similar sacrifice on the part of our allies taxation which is admittedly heavy but as far as possible equitably distributed is inevitable and the balance of the financial burden must be taken up by voluntary savings only in this way and in no other form can any stable postwar conditions besafe- guarded and the evils inseparable from the operation of inflationary practices avoided to this end it is absolutely essential that an
