The chief cause of roads being blocked is the rail fence, the majority of which are all ready in bad need of repair, The plan that is adopted in numerous other town. ships of firat requesting the oteu- pants of farm lands bordering on the roads and concessions to low- er their fences during the winter months and where they do not comply with the vequest, the fences r, and Mrs, McPherson and daughter, Audrey, accompanied by Mra, Cecil Pridham, all of Toronto, visited at the home of Mr, and Mrs, John Mark on Friday of .ast|U week, Mr, and Mra, Orr Shunk, Mr, and' Mra, James Shunk spent Sunday with friends on Scugog Island, What 1s the matter with our church, or should we say the con- gregation, Is it last of interest on the part of the ple who do not attend, or does the fault lie with those who do, Or is it because they stay at home to - entertain their friends who use Sunday as visiting day?

H, Crittall never forgot 'that 40 years 280 he worked as a village black- smith, and because he and his eld- est son believe in carrying precepts into practice, Silver End, im the county of Essex, claims to be the happiest town in the kifigdom. Its population largely is made up of ex-service men, many of them badly wounded or mutilated. There ia not a man out of work. There is no poverty, There is no smoke, no soot, no noise, Every family has a mice house with gar- den, electric lights, bathrooms, and modern conveniences. It all has ha ed as an after- math of the World War, When the conflict was over many of the employes of the Crittal Manufae- turing Co! y came back from the army looking for jobs, Their places had been filled, but Presi- dent Crittall was eager to ao something for them, The company has plants in Braintree, Maldon and Witham. One day Crittall and his eldest son, V. G. Crittall, who is managing di- rector of the concern, heard of a large tract of flat farm land, situ- ated almost in the centre of the triangle formed by the three towns, "We'll buy this and build a mo- del factory here," sald the two men, So said, so done. A plant was erected, designed to manufacture bronze handles and other fittings for doors and windows, The name Silver End was given to it, The employes work from 7 in the morn. ing until noon and from 1 o'clock until 5. The early hour for start- ing was chosen by a vote of the men themselves. There is no work on Saturday or Sunday. Silver End beat even Henry Ford to the five-day week, Out of 321 employes, 225 are ex-service men and of these 115 are suffering from war disabilities, The method of pay is original. Every man when put te work, is given a shilling an hour, thus earning 45 shillings a week, After gaining experience, a newcomer is put into one of three plece-work gangs. Their earnings are pooled and shared equally, whatever. op- eration each man performs. long ago the weekly wages pald to each man topped $22.50, which is high for England, The men have a liherty In the factory that is rare in England, They are allowed to smoke as much as they please. Having built the factory, the Crittalls proceeded to construct a garden city to house thelr work: ers. Roads and streets were con- structed and 400 residences put up, substantially huilt of brick and concrete in pretty designs. Tennis courts, cricket fields and a miniature golf course were lald out, President Crittall built his own home in Silver End, It is constructed of the same material as the workmen's and his nearest Not |4 (2 The October Bedding Sale Is Going Over In a Very Big Way Why wouldn't it?
