And, accord- ing to reports, drivers weren't even trying to kill or injure, either. Per- `speed god. No doubt a better show- ifng in the wayvof increased casual- ties will be made with increased num- ber of automobiles driven, which is inevitable. Some persons may argue there is something of a curse mixed with the blessing of auto transporta- 23011. It will be noted that few of xese accidents happened where there are signal-men`, human or mechanic. Motor card may be seen turning` short corners on the wrong side of the road in the Barrie vicinity al- most any hour. A silent policeman would" serve for indisputable evidence in the -event of an argument on $535 `score, if for nothingtelse. Motor- islts `look for the silent cop. If he is not present they may be inclinedito, `take a cut-like others.

Au-nib Av` I-Inn n'ln4--'l-u.In ` A The Ottawa`Journal recently point- ' ed out the unfair attitude which the` public often assumes towards a news-,` paper, in asking it for free publicity. 5 It questioned whether those interest-' ed in a certain fund or organization would go into a dry goods store or | a grocery store and calmly ask for $2.00 or $3.00 worth of goods gratis; I Yet -they will think nothing of going; into a newspaper office and asking f_ the publisher to donate a certain a-E mount of advertising space, the only} thing he has to sell, to their enter-[ prise. This point `is very well taken, ! comments the Renfrew Mercury.; Seldom does a week go by that thel local newspaper is not asked to put] in this, that, or the other thing fori nothing, when it is simply for the` benet or convenience` of some or- ganization or -person, whose aim is -134.-- L... ____ .. ............ 3.... ..........LI......... . A cry is heard for trained men for the pulpit. At the recent Conference 1 in Toronto it developed that there are ( forty-four members, trained preach-5 ers, doing other "than [pulpit work; and thesewmen retain their standing? at the Co ference and come under?` the terms of the superannuation I fund. Out of less than 200 preach- ers in the Conference this is a large percentage. It might develop on_ close .-inquiry that a number of these` forty-four ministers who have desert- i ed pastoral .work are holding jobs that might be lled equally well, "if not better`, by laymen of good execu-V 1 tive ability. ! \aAAAuInv|\IA Dr. Routley emphasized the need for preventive` measures, applying particularly to children. He said that much insanity is due to infect- ious diseases or social diseases con- tracted in early life. (U'l"I.... ....L1:.. ........l... 4... 1...`... H 1.... 'HALT DISEASE IN` CHILD IS DR.

Routley of the Ontario Red `Cross Society, before al meeting under the auspices of the- Simcoe _.County Medical Association in Barrie last Thursday night. In connection with the Norwood Old Boys Reunion the Register issu- led a special edition containing num- erous photogravures of men,g1ocal views, business places,` etc. This num- ber was a great credit to the pub-; lishers, `Messrs Keefer & Son,-and must have added much to the interest of the re-union. At the recent com- petition for prizes offered by the 'Manager of the C.W.N.A.,'the Reg-I I ister had the distinction of winning] first place, among those exhibited, for the best Canadian weekly using; la ready print. ' I WhenVman s faith becomes as un- shakable'as his prejudice it may be said the reaction from war is at an end. Meanwhile acts `of violence will be charged to the war, in spite of the fact that few of the violators were closer. to war than a parade behind `the lines. --V LI-Ill) In w'u alnvsv Lwnnv vs V951. English spelling, passable when writ- ten, but utterly absurd when spoken. From the northwest corner of a large room comes yea"; instantly from the southeast corner comes nay. _ The acoustic properties of the room are not so perfect as to make the wand react clearly; hence confusion -and guess-work by the recorder of e votes. Yes and no are dis- tinct. There is no similarity. They cnnvey the meaning the voter intends. Why resort to an absolute vernacular Awhich, compared with the improved form, has now become as childish imitation. Yes" and no are men's i words. Let them be used in coun- ' cils where men are gathered. What" ' Vlnan would regard nay as a serious -answer from the girl of his heart?

In Brandon Liberals and Con- servatives have the same candidate ' and strange combinations are moot- ed in other ridings. To the average person it has become a meaningless tangle, and citizens are weary of_ the lack of stability of government. The] present` election promises to increase rather than diminish the confusion. Apathy in registration shows the voter` is taking little` interest in it... The campaign in one of personalities, `not of platforms. The! Government stands on its record; other parties have a common plank--economy of administration. Electors have not much faith in this time-worn phrase, and, frankly, they fail to see what is at stake. There is little difference in the. pree1ection promises of the various `groups. * | of motorists say they prefer to see a] silent cop, rather than none at all at a crossing.
