Let Down Almonte. ¢ year ago, the un- derwriters' inspector came to Al- monte and when the fire depart- ments gasoline pumper was cranked up it refused to perform. The in- ghester was quite peeved and told the council so in his report. A year later, Thursday to be exact, the in- spector again came to town. After testing a few hydrants incidentally, the water pressure was excellent, he asked to see the pumper in action. To the mortification of the local citizens and the rage of the inspec- tor the machine 'again let the town down with a sickening thud. And now the people are wondering what the inspector will say in his next report.

Cannot Vote Yet Almonte.--Failure to fyle in suffi- cient time the petition seeking the privilege of voting on the establish- ment of a liquor store in Almonte will prevent the voters from ex- ressing their opinion on this sub- ject at the coming municipal elcc- tion. The petition, with more than its quota of names actually neces- sary, was forwarded to the Liquor Control Board, but the officials -of the board stated that two months must elapse after the petition is signed before the question can be voted upon. It is expected that the question will be balloted on at a spe- cial election early in the new year. Conservatives Meeting Smiths Falls--The election of offi- cers of the Smiths Falls Liberal- Conservative Association will take place at a meeting to be held in the town hall on November 19, it was decided by members of that organi- zation. A large number of local citizens assembled as the meeting was advertised to take place on this date, but on a motion moved by Wilson McCue, K.C,, seconded by W. H. Stinson, it was postponed, due to the fact that it had been ad- vertised only one weck previous to the date set, instead of two,' thus violating a 'clause in the constitu- tion.

One section struck George McGil- livray, 16, cutting off his right arm above the wrist. A second piece broke Harry Beckstead's right arm. Floyd MacKenzie was struck by a section and knocked unconscious but he suffered only minor injuries. STATE INSURANCE SCHEME FAVORED Head of Trades Congress Outlines Plan To Aid Idle Montreal.--Fear of unemploy- ment by those who are at present employed is one of the chief fac- tors creating unemployment to- day, declared Tom Moore, presi- dent of the Trade and Labor Con- gress of Canada, speaking at the People's Forum in the Church of the Messiah * recently. People still drawing the same salary as a year ago and having thelr jobs as secure as they were two or three years ago, were not spend- ing the same amount of money to- day because they were a little fearful of what the future might hold for them. This fear is playing its part in restricting spending and is thus accentuating the volume of un- employment, and whether through unemployment insurance or any other means, statesmen must find something to bring back the feel- ing of security in the minds of in order that their spending pow- er might be exerted to the full during what is called unprosper- ous years, Fear also played its part with the bankers in restrict- ing credits, and caused govern- ments to promise much and per- haps do little. Problem of State He pointed out that the num- ber of unemployed in Canada, in- cluding women as well as men, although the former had not been registered, was the equivalent of one in twenty of the population and that there was more absolute hunger and destitution in Mont. real today than Would be found in any city in the British Isles or the older European countries, be- cause the people here had failed to realize that unemployment and allied problems were no longer the problem of the indivi®n~! ~lone, but were problems of the State and the community and should therefore be dealt with by them. The hungry man was not al- ways in a position to argue or con. sider all the aspects of his actions, and while law and order must be maintained it should be done with a broad understanding of the dif- ficulties that had to be faced. They would always have in their midst those, who, through malice or ignorance, tried to exaggerate conditions which would excite those whose minds were nog in » normal condition, but they were a small majority and the remeu was not to try to suppress them but to remove the cause that pro- moted communistic propaganda. Mr. Moore pointed out the ad: vantages of moratorium for those who had built up homes and were unable to maintain payments. claiming that this would be a rea' help in the present situation, and touching on the question of die- carding machinery in favor of old-style 'man power sald it was just as logical to suggest that all technical schools should be abol- fshed and the buildings used to house the homeless. While he iid not preach the capital levy he thought more money could be raised by taxation, and money that was supposedly lying idle in the banks could be borrowed to provide employment on public works. A brief reference to gold and international credit led the speaker to the question of disar- mament which he claimed was es- sential to the development of the social life of the people. Then he touched on the necessity of preparing in times of prosperity for the returning cycles of de- pressed trade, claiming that on this continent in particular the Oshawa"s Welf 3 Prizes Tickets Now on Sale "by All Kinsmen Nove SNELL'S Under the Auspices of the Kinsmen Club of Oshawa . | Oshawa Armouries Monday mber 16 FUN, LAUGHTER, SONG FREE DANCING Proceeds in Aid of Welfare Fund Admission, per person--50c ORCHESTRA those who are already employed' public forgot the bad years as soon as prosperity returned in- stead of preparing themselves so that when conditions changed they would not be caught as they bad been in the yast. Insurance Favored Finally he expressed himself 8s being strongly in favor of un- employed insurance, declaring that it was immeasurably super- for to direct relief which was now being given, seemingly with great. er desire than the providing of work which would enable a man to earn his living and retain his self respect. Unemployed insur- ance should be participated in by three parties, the State, the em- ployer and the employed, and be maintained that if this were pro- vided there would be less laying off of hands, less closing down of plants for temporary periods, more confidence among the work- ers of security of a means of livel- fhood and consequently a greater spending of money earned on the products that were produced in the country. Incidentally he asserted that the government's blank cheque to help unemployed had apparently remained blank as the $10,000,- 000 that they estimated for pub- lic works only totalled the amount that had been cut off the esti- mates for public work the previ- ous year and he thought they should begin to write something on the blank cheque that would provide work for those who need- ed it and were entitled to obtain it, Direct relief was demoralizing to both the giver and receiver and work was the best cure for unemployment, so that as long as there was profitable work that could be undertaken there ghould be no ohstacles of finances or any other kind placed in the way. Outlines Remedy The remedy for over-produc- tion was not the discarding of machinery but shorter hours pro- viding more employment and more spending power. Reduction of wages would not bring about prosperity--the average for Que- bec was $80 a month, and if that was reduced by 10 per cent how were they going to absorb the products of the factories which gave employment, 'for the pro- ducer was the congumer of the product he produced to a far greater extent than before, ow- ing to the restriction of foreign markets to take care of the sur- plus of any particular country, Professor F. Clarke of McGill University presided. Spring Flowering Bulbs Must Be Planted in Fall When every onc else's garden is bright with spring flowering bulbs it 1s too late then to be scized with the inspiration to plant some in your own garden. Bulbs must be planted in the fall so they have the winter season to develop a substan- tia) root system Not only are the flowering bulbs of spring the most welcome assur ance that winter is finally gone, but they are so adaptable, They can be tucked into odd places in the nlanting that later in the season will be too shady, or tgo well filled with plants that defelop as the scason advances. Bulbs may also be planted among the peren- nials, and the bare spaces which occur when they are out of season can be nicely filled with annuals or autumn flowering perennials, Probably the best known of the very early spring flowers is the bright little crocus, Planted in masses it makes a colorfuy show of golden yellow, blue, white and pur- ple. There are also several other early flowering bulbs which will add variation and charm to the garden. Glory-of-the-Snow produces spikes of the gayest little azure blue flow- ers with pure white centers, and is a useful variety as' edging to beds or when planted in masses. It is especially worth while because of the small amount of foliage in con- trast to the large number of blos- soms, _ Another early flowering variety is the beautful Scilla. The grace- ful spikes of drooping bell-shaped flowers are bright blue, rose or white, S. campanulata, known as wood hyacinth or Spanish bluebell, is excellent for maturalizing in woodsy locations. And, of course, the display of early blooming bulbs would scarcely be complete without the courageous little snowdrops, They do best when left undisturbed 50 should be established where they may remain, After these'earlier varieties have paved the way there is wave on wave of glorious color to be seen throughout the well-planted spring garden. Narcissi readily adapt themselves to formal groups, to nooks in the shrubery and perennial borders, or to naturalized plantings, There are many variations of these fragrant flowers, and all shades of yellow, gold, orange and waxy white; also combination of these are to be found in this favored family oN bulbs, . Wherever only a few plants are included in a mixed group, or row on row of them are massed in im- pressive borders, the exquisitely fragrant hyacinths are the most de- lightfaul of spring flowers, There are large, perfect types for exhibi- tion purposes, and the single types and miniature or Dutch Roman hy- acinths for bedding or forcing. An- other interesting type of hyacinth, especially pleasing in the rockery, is the grape hyacinth, Its six-inch flower spikes are clothed with small round bells clustered like bunches of grapes The most brilliant flowers in the springtime garden are the tulips Colorful single and double carly varieties make an excellent showing in beds and borders.
