LAWRENCE WILL RECHIRE REMOVAL OF TOWN OF IROi^OtS Canada's "Father of Waters" the St. Lawrence, whose course has been altered countless times in the past 200 years as men sought to utilize its fullest navigation and power advan- tages, is to be jointly attacked under one of the largest diversion programs known in all of history, through the agreement just reached between Can- ada and the United States. The international development is expected to yield electrical energy amounting to 2,200,000 horsepower, which will be equally divided between Canada and the United States. When the work which has now been broadly outlined is brought to com- pletion, and it is estimatel that the joint project will require .«even years after a start is made, a laroje section of the St. Lawrence will have many characteristics of a "brand new' river. The site where the community of Iroquois nov/ star.ilj v ill just be wat- er. Before that time comes, the town will have to pick up its five chur- ches, schools, stores and places of in- dustry, along with homes of its 900 people, and move them a full mile in- land from the present location. When that has been done they will still be on the banks of the river â€" the new .About half the residence and busi- ness places of Morrisburg will have to be moved in the same way. Tlie Can- adian National Railway will have to alter a portion of its route, and new paths will have to be cut for some highways.

Last year's rate was 39 mills and the pre- sent one shows a reduction of six- tenths of a mill. This lower rate is m.ade despite the fact that the first payment for the street paving is to be made this year. The frontage tax on the various properties facing the pavement will be in addition to the regular rate as stated above. MARRIED NUHNâ€" WARD â€" At the Baptist parsonage, by Rev. J. R.

A Record Breaker We have heard of a good man\ ball games with high scores, but Flesherton takes the record for the highest of scores. In a game in town on Thursday last between the Flesh- erton and Dundalk boys the latter were held scoreless, while the local swatters counted a total of 54 runs crossing the plate in less than foui innings, while Flesherton was still at bat in the fourth when the game was called on account of darkness with one man out. If Flesherton doesn't hold the record for runs scored in a game we would like to know who does.

Owning Your Home Folks who some years ago bought houses and settled down in thsm made an exceedingly lucky stroke. A lot of thioe folk are now getting their living quarters at a rate far below what the average renter is pay- ing. They might not be able to build a new house for less than double what their home cost them. The favorable result of a good in- vestment in real estate should be considered by every family that is ambitious to acquire an independent position. There ra.iy not be so much chance in future years to make money by the advance in value of a home that one owns. Still, in a general way. the people who own their own dwellings come out rather better than those who pay rent. When you hire another man's house a part of the rent is in the nature of a compensation paid to the owner to look after the property. The oc- cupant might just as well care for it himself and avoid having to pay this charge.
