Oshawa a nd District Building Corrections 4 Through typographical errors in Saturday's Reformer in a list of building permits issued last week it was stated that A, J, Stalter was making alterations to his house on Vimy Street East. This should have read King Street Rast. It was also made to appear that Mr. W. H.

A. Crockett pefore the Committee of the Legis- lation at Toronto on Friday, on the ground that the financial statements and minutes of the year would not be before the people in time for them to vote, Major Tolmie suggested that each municipality should have the right to pass an optional date. Hon, Geo. 8, Henry stated that the fiscal year would have to be put. forward a couple of months. It was argued that in the west the early collection of taxes torced the farmers to sell considerable grain at a low price. E.

The contest between the supporters of "God's time and Borden's" was in- teresting at times--but before the nothing when it comes to re-hashing all the old stories of the British em- bargo against Canadian store cat- tle. On estimates for the Depart- ment of Agriculture, the old question | was revived, and the Minister, Hon. W. R. Motherwell, talked in optim- istic tones of the possibility of hav- ing the embargo lifted now. At any rate, between himself and Hon. P. C. Larkin they were going to try it, and there was a prospect of bring Dr. Charles BE. Grand Rapids, Mich. here for a ser- jes of addresses on May 4th. For more than a year and a half Dr. Barker under the_auspices of the Rotary Clubs has been delivering his addresses throughout United States and Canada.

The farmer mem- bers pressed their old objection that the farmers did not want it and that daylight saving only helped the idle rich who wanted to stop work at four o'clock in the afternoon to play golf or tennis. J. J. Hughes, of King's County, P.E.L, discovered that daylight saving was largely re- sponsible for coaxing the young men and maidens away from the farms, among other things. The debate cost the country some six or seven thou- sand dollars--and that on a resolu- tion which would have probably been outside of the powers of parlia- ment anyway. LJ * Some astute statistician has figur- ed out that it costs $2,000 an hour to have parliament sit and debate anything. so that a three-hour de- bate on something outside of parlia- ment's powers is rather an expensive Juxury, It accomplished the good, perhaps, of putting the rural con- stituencies on record as against the new summer time, and next session Mr. Kay is vowing to bring in a bill which will ask for amendment of the British North America Act if nee- essary, to give the federal parlia- ment control of time in the Domin- ion. w® - What's a matter of ancient *® his- something happening. The discus- sion provided a chance for the old row between Conservatives and Pro- gressives as to the wisdom of Hon- Manning Doherty's trip to England to crop up again and while there were Conservatives ready to critic- ize Mr. Doherty there was Progres- sives equally ready to defend him and his actions. The situation is | that a representative of the Agricul-| ture Department is on his way to| London to take the matter up and the government believes there is some hope of getting the embargo lifted at this time. * LJ The western premiers are talking over the return of their resources | with the federal government, and | while probably the conferences will | last for some time, back and forth, before there is anything even 2ap- proaching a settlement of this long- standing difficulty, the conference does appear to be making some head- way. Of course, difficulty arises from the fact that the older provin- ces all feel that they have a claim in the matter and they are likely to hold out for what they term are their rights.

Dr. Barker handles his subjects entertainingly, and what he has to say is timely and in- spiring. Each address occupies ah- out an hour.

The speaker touched on the hous- to industrial unrest, a blight on the life of the working man and a hind- rance to marriage. Other phases of the problem were also touched on, the speaker emphasizing that the one and only solution was the daily prac- tice of the teachings of the Master. | The Duty of Parents The problem of the social evil was also touched on by Rev. Mr. Cobourn and a stern warning issued to parents regarding the early train- ing of their children and imparting to them proper knowledge regarding | sex. He touched on the minimum | wage law now in operation in On-| tario, whereby women and girls were guaranteed a living wage. a girl did not receive a sufficient wage to enable her to live respect- ably she either had to deprive her body of something it needed or else sell her soul to sin and shame, Rev. Mr. Cobourn told something of the rescue work being done among girls by the Methodist Church, a home in the west having been open-| ed where girls of tender years were committed by magistrates and judges | until they were 21 years of age. Convincing instances of where girls had been rescued from lives of shame and made useful members of society were related. In closing Rev. Mr. Cobourn point- od out that all this work, so neces- sary if Canada was to become Christianized, needed the moral and financial support of the people of the Methodist Church. Envelopes were distributed in the pews, and an offering taken up for the work.
