Editoi I KIMTOKIAL ITEMS They are setting along in the To- ronto suburbs. A York county school trustee proposes that as an aid to betterment of the times a "birh con- trol clinic" should be set up. Christianity in Russia seems to be spreading under persecution. It Is ever thus wivh measure's that are banned. In place of liquor being smuggled, it is now Bibles being tak- en into Russia by surreptitious means. The happy motorist has slightly changed the reading of the Kouth The ant'-birth controllers are re- tired in the Parry Sound district. There the public school taxpayers are paying $640 a year to a parent for motoring his own children to school. There is no school in the section, as of the sixteen families within the limits, but or.e household has children of school age and it has been fount! expedient to arrange for their educa- tion in an Indian reserve near by. Meanwhile, the father earns an hon- est penny and the children have the.li daily motor ride. But what do tht neighboring parents think about jt? That was a significant declaratioi which Mr. G. F. Rogers, chief direct- or of Education for Ontario, made at Fort William recently. He declar- ed that he concurred with the dele gate to the Urban School Trustee? Convention, when they resolved that Ontario is "examination mad," anc under the adoption of other stand ards of passing from high school than a final departmental examination in Toronto. There can be no doubt tha very many educationists and othe McK EE BOYCE cnangeu uie ""K " - , ;!, _mjn Commandment.

The former Minister of Labour, Peter is well off. He has a job to go that he has donned overalls and re- turned to his job as engine driver. Peter is well off. he has a job to go tn. He never could bear to loaf- even in parliament he always is busy. - - Did John Aird act as an intermed- iary between the Beauharnois Power Corporation and the Ontario govern- ment with respect to the $125,000 pay- ment? Did he turn over the equiv- alent in cash and retain the bonds to cover the marks of the transac- tion ? If he did we wonder if the castigation he has received at the hands of judges was worth while. A good name is greater than riches. Every now and again an agitation i> ^et on foot for better pay to the judges. The plea put forward i? that good lawyers are so well paid that they refuse to go on the bench But it well known that there is never a vacancy in the Courts that jtors remain. the Mini.-ter of Justice i not delayed with applications for appointment anil but few of the would-be judges t to the remuneration offered and would IK- insulted if it declared that they were not fully qualified. | does injustire to pupils of cxcellen record, whose class work is shown ti be exceptionally good, but who arc unable, eiher through nervous temper- ment or the effects of torrid weather very generally prevailing at midsum me:- high pressure examinations, tt do full justice to their attainments.

Is it to enablt politicians to back down from theii former records with as little jmblic ity as possible? As has been well said, however, the eyes of the world will be upon the delegates when they return to their countries and have tc give account of their ongoings. Mean- while, the correspondents at Ottawa tell us the visitors have ample to eat and drink as the master caterei is a millionaire, a man of ideas, and with carte blanche from the Canad ian government to feed, house, and otherwise entertain the delegates there will be no evidence of hard times in official circles while the vis- editor ha>- receive:! i\ number (if pamphlets ami mnp- from the Biiifuu "f I".f"i -mat on i.f the Prov- im : of No-. .-.

RANDLE STUART On Tuesday, June 21, at Trinity United C'hurch the marriage of Don- elda, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jasper Stuart and Arthur County Council Doings Grey County Council last week dropped the county rate to !) mills on the dollar on an assessment of $34, 850,000, a drop of half a mill from that of last year. The nine nvills Is made up of six for the general rate and three for roads, of the latter one and three quarters mills will go to meet the expenses of provincial high- ways and one and one-quarter mill? for the county road system. It was also decided by the Council that there would not l>e any road work on the Provincial system this year, a motion moved by Reeve McCauley of Flesherton and seconded by Reeve Lillicrap of Meaford for this purpose being lost by 20 to 14. It was a straight issue between rural and ur- ban reeves on the vote. A report on the amount of taxes due the municipalities of Grey was to the effect that every cent owing the County had been paid. Hanovei has the largest amount of taxes in arrears, about $2300, with Flesherton having the smallest amount, about $50. The figures did not show that either the towns or townships were hardest hit in the collection of taxes Osprey township has $G,500 in ar- rears; Collingwood $5,000; Artemesia $4,200; Glenclg $3,000; Durham, $2,- GOO to $2,700; Thornbury $2,500; Kep pel $2,000 and Sydenham, $2,000. These figures are given by the var- ious Reeves and are only approximate At Meaford 90 per cent of the first installment of this year's taxes hav e been paid. A committee was appointed to probe into the cost of criminal justice in the county, the committee to be com- posed of Reeve R. J. White of St Vincent, Reeve Chas. Holme of Nor- manby and Reeve D. J. McDonald ol Bentinck. County Crown Attorney Henry was present and gave his re- port on the cost of his department. Following are the amounts to be paid by the various municipalities to the county under the 9 mill rate: Artemesia, $17,010; Bentinck, $17,- 640; Collingwood, $20,250; Derby, $13,500; Egremont, $21,960; Euphra- sia, $20,250; Glenelg, $11,700; Hol- land. $13,725; Keppel, $12,150; Nor- Osprey and Artemesia General Store Groceries Flour & Feed SPECIALS Japan Rice 4 Ibs 25c Matches, 3 pkg 23c Minute Tapioca 2 pkg. 15c World's blend coffee l /> 19c Corn Starch, 2 pkg 15c Special Blend Tea, Ib ..29c , Mens' Okie work shirts 79c Mens' Redlock Overalls 1.00 Mens' summer shoes 1.95 PARIS GREEN.

One of the principal mediums for the distribution of wee'! seed: in Canada is dirty seed, partic- ularly clover and grass seed, because of the fact that most of the noxiov* weeds hav c seeds of about the same ' size and shape as the seeds of clovers ' and grasses, and hence are difficult to remove. This reason alone should ' be sufficiently important with the in- telligent fanner to ensure the prefo>-- ence which is due it for inspected seed. Read The Advance regularly.
