Whenever the words occur "$20 per month for each year of service" it should read $20 a YEAR for each year of service. Sorry.

In the larger hotels the trade is more impersonal. There is justice in the demand that the trade or the government should be responsible for the care of alcoholics. If the liquor were not avail- able, there would be no alcoholics--that is if pro- hibition were strictly enforced--bootlegging and all.

CREIGHTON, K.C., M.P.P, a 'Space does not permit of the print- Ee ing of Mr. Creighton's complete speech in the Ontario Legislature, on March 28th. But the following ex- a tracts re the Budget and the work of the Government, will be of interest to iL the people of Ontario Riding, which & Mr. Creighton represents, t "Ontario Riding is chiefly remark- able for two reasons, It is an im- portant agrisnitural district. It has 2 some of the best mixed farming land # ~ in the province, and that is high 5 praise. It has been long distinguished as the home of livestock breeders, : Horses, beef and dairy cattle and by sheep from Ontario County have been 5 shown with success at the best live; stock shows on the continent, and this was go long years ago when the Hon- John Dryden sat for this riding and over fifty years ago held the cabinet portfolio now administered so accept- ably by that veteran legislator the honorable member for Peel, The other side of Ontario riding is industrial, and in these two phases it is really a cross-section of the older parts of the province, Along the shores of Lake Ontario, in Oshawa and Whitby, and during the war years in Pickering Township at Ajax where a huge munitions operation was carried 'on, we have developed a highly indus- trinlized area with a variety of pro- ducts, "chiefly metal-working plants headed by the large General Motors Plant .at Oshawa, but including algo leather and woodworking plants 'and substantial printing plants, I am glad to say that in all of these plants generally there have been for years now harmonious labour-management relations with a good level of union organization under capable leadership. The general esteem and regard in which the Provincial Treasurer is held mean that he stands in need of no commendation from me, Neverthe- less, I wish to extend to him my sin- cere and friendly congratulations on the high qudlity of his budget, and the able manner of its presentation, I know that it has been well received and that it will be generally approved by the citizens of the province. In the first place, it is a record of public business well conducted, - It in- dicates a surplus of over six millions accomplished not by niggardly use of public revenue, but in the face of gen- erous expenditure for education, wel- fare, health, and highways, and others including the government's splendid rogram of assistance to local school rds. There is no need to restate the figures, There is a degree of gross debt of well over five mil- lions, as well as reductions in both contingent and net debt. : In the second place, it forecasts our advancement in the right direction. It doesn't hestitate to make steadily larger sums available for health and welfare service, It is not easy to speak highly enough of the splendid things that the government is doing for education," ----- I think we all agree that no greater value per dollar can be obtained for our province's future, than by éxpen- diture in education, The government cannot be too much commended for the enlightened Progra) behind the large appropriation of over 38 millions, in- cluding the payment to local boards out of this year's surplys, Nothing in the government's pro- gram hag impressed me more than its work in agriculture. The affectionate and sincere concern of the Minister of Agriculture for all farmers and farm operations is very apparent to this House. We all know something of the effects of his stimulating program. It is bringing agriculture in Ontario to steadily higher levels, and more profitable results, Its expansfon is indicated by an increase of $1,750,000 in this year's appropriation, I am cure it is the hope of us all that he will long continue his leadership in this work which means so much to the province of Ontarlo, A third feature of the budget is its tone of confidence, It indicates that the government is approaching both the immediate problems of Dominion- Provincial relations, and the long range problems of our economic future with assurance. The hon. Minister has said he anticipates no difficulty, given a proper readjustment of our revenue situation in overcoming the Prospective deficit, and T am sure the Touse will support him in that con- fidence. : George Raymes Passes One of the best known citizens of Port Perry died on Friday, March 29, 1046. He was born at Albion, Ont, 94 years ago, . When he was seven years old, his parents moved to Scu- od Island and took up farming there. is whole life from that time was spent on the Island and in Port Perry ~and a busy life it has been, George was one of twin boys, and torium couple Mr, land Mrs. Servey, of Parry Sound. about their own homes, The boys, "Johnny" and "Geordie" grew to manhood, Years passed, and time dealt kindly with them, for they lived lives of thrift and industry. The older residents looked upon them with respect and affection, for they have been good citizens. Now "Geor- die" is gone, and "Johnny" is lonely. George became a stationary engi- neer, and spent fort-tive years of his life keeping the machinery going down at the mill; first with Bigelow & 'I'rounce, and later with James Car- negie. terests in George's life. He loved his home and provided well, for it. And he loved his work, and did it without shirking. In 1882 GeorgedJRaymes married Mrgaret Best, of Preston, Ont, Five children were born of this marriage, all but one survive their father, Ms. Raymes died in 1943. The children are--DMurs. S. McMillan (Iithel), Port Perry; Mrs, Chas. Wells (Jeanette) deceased; Garnet: Raymes, of Wel- land; George Raymes, of Brighton; and Wilbert Raymes, of Toronto. The funeral services, at the McDer- mott funeral chapel, were conducted by Rev. Clifford Smith; and were largely attended. Interment was at Pine Grove Cemetery, Prince Albert. Seventy-tive Years Young A stream of beautiful cards of con- gratulation was so enlarged by the week-end that the recipient, Rev. J, A. Miller, of Toronto, decided to celebrate his natal day, Sunday, March 31st, at the chief source of the stream, that charming hill-top village "in Ontario County, Greenbank, where seventy-five years ago he first saw the light of day in the house south of the United Church. Among the scores of mis- sives received none were more ap- preciated than one from Frank Pettit, a Scugog pupil, now in Hamilton Sani- and another from the first Miller married, Captain At the morning service, Rev. Thos, Wallace tendered congratulations and the large congregation sang Wig id Birthday" so it was fitting that My. Miller should express his thanks to the audience and give grateful testimony of how the influence of a goodly home and an outstanding Christian com- munity had helped to prepare him for his life's work. Fifty years ago he was principal of the local public school, Superintendent of the Presbyterian Sunday School, women, local preacher for the Metho- dist church and active in the Sans of Temperance (1700 members in On- tario County), a Forester and Chosen Friend, and other community interests. His three years at Scugog Centre and Prince Albert were also full of profitable experences. Not forgetting local correspondence to the Lindsay Post, Port Perry Standard and Ux- bridge Journal, } Ordained at Depot Harbour forty- three years ago he has had a very varied career in the Presbyterian and United Churches. Thirty-nine years ago in the growing city of Toronto has presented the challenge for many types of service, whether in the pas- torate, or immigration chaplain pre- vious to the Great War, or as for four years as superintendent of the Gov- ernment Employment Bureau adjust- mens days after the war, or Church Extension work where he is credited with the purchase of thirty church sites and the organizing of eighteen congregations, Then again much time has been given to welfare organiza- tions, such as the St. Andrew's Society, (32 years), House of Industry (85 years), Neighborhood Workers, Big Brother Movement, Bible Society, etec., and now, retired from active pulpit work, he begins his tenth years as Chaplain in Toronto Police Courts and jail, perhaps the greatest challenge that has come to him. The "Star" adds its congratulations and the wish for many more years of useful service, -- el ~~ BLACKSTOCK Mrs. Joseph Sanderson A life of interest and concern for others ended on March 25th, when Elizabeth Hunter, widow of the late Joseph Sanderson, died in her 92nd year, at the home of her son, Simeon, in Cartwright township. Always keenly interested in community and world events, Mrs. Sanderson, failing in health for some time, was remark- ably active up to a week before her passing, She was born in Cavan Township, the daughter of Isabella and Samuel Hunter; and came to Cartwright in 1884. Her husband predeceased her on September 4th, 1917. Hers was a sincere and sunny spirit; and where there was trouble or sorrow, she was happy to be of asisstance. Her family and grandchildren were dear to her heart and her unselfish life made a deep impression upon those who knew her best.
