Theêre is a lot of irutih i wat this geutie- mani savs. H1e could bave seiecled nîo bel- ter word iban "svntbetic" ho describe the attractions of the city. We bave heard af men, born and bred iin thc large cilies, wvho once they bad a iaste af ife in a small coin- munitty were neyer satisfied la go back ho tic bribht lits of a big, city ha live. Tic letier from wiich ive bave quoted goes ou ta say "I believe that nine oui of every len men eati do wbat lbey wani ho do anîd do il betier iin tic smalier communihy. Far more tbaui hall of tlîe people of tie New W'orld live in or adjacentho thie small town. and tbey are cither influenced, or eau bc iufluenced. by thie country weekly in lie mauner tiat cannaI be approacied by thecbicg ciiy paper." Tic more we travel, aud tic more we meet men af importance in every phase of livelihood, tic more convinced we become that anc can rcaily gel more satisfaction in life, more real uuadultcrahed joy of living, in1 tic small commuuity than in any other place. Saturday Night Parking a Real Social Affair Little acts af discaurtesy vcry oflen bring discredit la a lown, and wiilc no dis- courtesy is intendcd, ncx'rtheleçOs some of Bowmanville's Saturday nigit main street parkers are hardly fair to shoppers. This applies perbaps more ho Bowmanvillc re- sidents than ta rural people. Ticre is a tendency anthie part of some people la select a favorable spot on main street early an Saturday evening, p)ark their caris tiere, and then sit in the car for tic evening ho watch lie maddening crowds go by. This is a greal inconvenience ta thase who wislî ta pull up la tic curb for a fcw minutes while they drap into a store ta do some buying. Tic merchants most thougilfully removed their cars and trucks from lie main sîreet on Salurdays and park tient on side streets or at tic rear of ticir stores. This ielps ta solve tic problcm. However if some of Bawmanville 's perennial park- ers would do likewise, it would be a very courteous gesture loward thic farmers and country folk who do licir shopping icre. Il is bardly fair la make a visitor tathie town park uis car away up Temperance or Division Street, and tien carry al is parcels froe thle store ho bis car. Il would be a very nice act af courtesy if Bowman- ville citizens wouid leave Main Street ab- solulely free for rural sioppers on Satur- day nigit. Not only would it relieve lic congestion of traffie, but it. would pave thie farmers a great deai of carrying. hI essence it wouid leave a muci beiler feeling towards our lown. Nebraska Shows It Can Be Done - And Did It Because we feel sa strongly on thic mal- ter we frequently refer ho matters af fin- ancing government workes, municipal, pro- vinéial and federal. Wbiic periaps we have been guilty in years gone by of advo- cating lie debenlure form of paymenl, we feel now that only in- exceptional cases wierc a real nccd exisîs siould this sort of civie financing be used. Pay-as-you-go is fast becoming tic palicy af belter admîn- IUtered organizations. Last week 's Financial Post gives prom- inence ta an article "Down Oame thie Taxes " by R. A. Farqubarson, staff wriher. It tells the slory af tic state af Nebraska, thieanc state an Ibis cantinent wilh no debt, 1ia sales tax, no cine tax, no nuis- ante tax. To Canadians this may seem 100 good ta be truc, but il Is a ladt, and it lias been accamplished hecause thie mcin behind thie government af Nebraska have thc cour- agre ta say "No." C Space doci liaI peril going itîto detail on Nebraska's success.

AI Lincoln, tic state capital, tiere is a magnilicent $10,000,000 capital building. Il was paid for wien complcted with no debl hanging over il for a quarter af a century. Don 'Ithiink that thie government bas neg- lechcd hhings in eutting thie taxes down from $66,000,000 a year to $44,000,000 a yeaîr. The highways are aniong the finest in the tUnited States,.

Tiere is a very miuci dis- torted vicev af taxation in Canada as comn- pared wiihi taxation in Great Briiaiiî, and Canadians are alleni told liai their hax burden Is nothing compared ta tic burden of tic British taxpayer. Here is anc way ifn vich Canadians have beeti very much foaled. It is truc that tic British incarne tax is a great deal higier than it is in Canada, but ini Great Britain they bave far less nuisance taxes and far fewer iidden taxes. Canadiaus pay taxes thaltich aver- age v'oter forgeis about. How many of us realize that every tin-e we buy a box af matches, a package af cigarettes, a box af face pawder, we are paying taxeýs. How many stop la i.iink tiat an every item purciascd lie buycr is payiug au 81,7 sales tax, whici really amaunts ta muci mare, because thc tax is pyramided? Not oniy is lie sîraigit 8%/rbeing paid, but il is also beirig paid on goods purchased and used in tic manufacture of thc taxable articles. Be- twecnl excise tax and salek tax a 12%7 tax would be more near tic truti. Publisher C.

BOWLES, graucbing for the fun af il. The]i Ex-Chancellor, Victoria depressian is passing - surelyý University, Toroni HOW FAR CAN TAXATION GO? (Globe and Mail) "Oid Bils Column" in the Dunnville Chronicle replies: "We have reached the limit." Bill was protesting against equaiized assess- ment increases on Dunnile, Caledonia arnd Hagersville, and concluded with the comment: "Dutnnville's taxes are more a burden under present conditions than ever beforc in our history, and further pressure by the county rnay 'kill the goo se that lays the golden egg'." We leave the mystery' of equalized assessments in Haldimand to 1401d Bill." The goose-killing business has more general application tied up with the observation: "Having in mind the county's heavy debenture debt, which we ail realize miast be reduced." A county wishing to know how it stands in the debenture debt procession may note that in 1926 total county ddbts in the Province were $15,874,753; in 1931, $17,956,328, and in 1936. $14,560,523, of which more than 13,500,000 was for roads. Haldimands debt in the latter year was reported at $375,676, cornpared with $438,406 in 1934. If there were but one debt to be paid. or endured, it would be less serious. Dunnville, with a population of 4,001. had a per capita debt two years ago of $51.94. Penetanguishene. with 60 more people, owed $3961 per capita, and Perth's population of 4,184 owed $157.02 each. Caiedonia (1,370 people) and Hagersville (1,345) had per capita debts of $33.10 and $2607, respectively, and probably were not worry. ing about the 1,187 folk over in Chippawa who owed $159.04 each, or the 1,268 in Richmond Hill in debt $233.32 each. It is even possible the 674 people in Cayuga. who have a municipal debt of $8271 apiece, feel superior to the 675 of Newcastle who, te the extenl that (bey can control, owe no man a cent. (It can be dupe). It is the aggregate and the duplication that hurt. Counties. cities. towns and villages, and townships have their general debt oj. $120.- 600,000. The cities, towns and villages and townships have school debts of $76,600,000 and local improvement debts of $88,600,000. Includ- ing utilities debts, ail together owe $431,500,000. School boards. village councils, township councils and county councils ail corne along with débts on the same people. Then the Province piles it on thicker than ever and the Federal Government enlarges the heap with another blanket of debt. Every $100 of debt at whaever source costs a certain amount of taxes to maintain. Is this the word? For the debts and taxes, which we ail realize shouid be reduced. are zetting heavier and heavier.
