teachers salaries st bur lington high school was diseussed and resentment shown by tbe county board reeve robinson of oarville in- traduced the followi rtaolutlon which was carried wtiereas this council has requested the various high school boards to economic in their expenditures during the current year and whereas this council rias been ad- vised that the burlington high school board has increased the salaries of several of their teachers vithout re gard to our request azul whereas other high school boards til the coun ty have refused to increase their tea chers salaries in deference to our re quest therefore be it resolved 1 that the council of the town of bur lington be requested to cooperate with us in an effort to induce the high school board of burlington to revert to the scale of 1930 3 that the education committee be authoriz ed to attend a joint meeting in bur lington to be arranged reeve robinson of oakvllle in speaking to the motion satd that early in the year all boards had been asked to economise by holding tight on all expenditures as the county paid about half of the expenditures some boards had coouearted but untortunadely burlington had defied the county council and was the only oosrd in the county to increase salaries he had asked his board not to increase salaries and forgo the schedule yearly agreement which was done in vule even though they had lost tea chers in doing it now the oakvllle board was after him because burling ton was allowed to increase then- teachers salaries what is the matter in burlington mr vanscriver queried deputy- reeve buck of trafalgar in reply deputyreeve vanscriver stated that the first step in his mind was to gat special leglslatlrm passed so that burlington school board would i have to be elected by the people and be responsible for the expenditures unfortunately the board has the idea that comfort and luxury was necessary at the burlington high school and nothing was too good for scholars or staff further views were expressed by fothest representatives of ttae munici palities in the county who were of the opinion that if other muntdpal- tues were trying to cut clown bur lington should be forced do so the equalisation of assessment for 1911 was the only other important matter to come before one meeting the same assessment as last year was public school field day the annual field day of george town

trading at home- newspapers have published column after column lecturers have sounded the theme of loyalty and even sermons have been preached on the subject yet buying away from home con tinues some of the mote pessimistic say the movement is spreading to the ruination of small towns and the ul timate destruction of our economic system certain it is in some localt- ties entirely too much is bought from outside sources and home institutions are suffering almost any right thinking and wen- informed persons will after honestly considering the subject admit that the continued patronage of foreign institutions will not result in the most good he knows that town schools churches places of amusement and places for the purchase of necessities depend upon loyalty yet it a that he us continuing to- spend much away from home perhaps the trouble lies largely in no one having been able to teach the buying public to think the thing through perhaps the effort has not been spent in the right direction per haps somewhere along the line of merchandising a slip was made that started the tide in the wrong direction whatever the reason there is but one solution and that is for tne home town merchant to co the people of his territory that he is in a posi tion j give equal or greater values than the other fellow and that is exactlyxwhat he can do in this day and age immense rentals and other overhead short hours and high sal aried help the necessity of- frequent sales at a sacrifice all are consplcu ous by their absence in the towns given a loyal trade territory and i fair

the first bennett budget estab lishes it as an effort to assist such basic industries as agriculture coal iron and steel and secondary indus tries such as silk and linen manufac ture and plants founded on basic pro ducts at the same time tt recognises a nrpnable deficit between expenditures and revenue on the farmer basis of taxation of more than 100000000 in the present fiscal year and through the tariff and direct taxation proposes to reduce this total by some 75000 000 f toe major assistance to agriculture will be a fire cent per bushel reduc tion in freight rates on export wheat and an import flinty or 25 pents bushel on feed corn increased duties pa canned fruit arid vegetables will help canadian producers andcanners and at the same tune give the gov ernment a persuasive instrument in negotiating trade treaties with british dominions new and higher duties an leather and ltsmanirfaporre and upon fresh meats are designed to improve the market for other canadian farm pro ducts in fact for the first time the tariff is ha ng seriously developed in the interest- of the farmer the re sult will be watched with great in terest while i experiment win un doubtedly work to the almost immedi ate advantage of mixed farming scarcely less general in its interest is the action taken with respect to coal anthracite hitherto free under all schedules goes to 40 cents per ton under general and intermediate tar iffs taut remains tree under the brit ish preference which will undoubted ly stimulate use of canadian bitumin ous and of british anthracite coke which was tree win pay 1 per ton another stimulus to canadian fuel while bituminous which was previous ly taxed at so cents per ton goes to 73 cents in addition to these tariff items the subvention in freight rates on canadian coal is extended to 2 per ton while duties on steel made in canada go up and those on steel not made in canada but re quired for secondary industries go down the entry of used cars to canada except as settlers effects is banned and the drawback of 28 per cent of duty on auto parts now made m cana da is withdrawn in recognition of the principle that cars must be made and not opjy assembled in ca tumqaliaf of american fu in to fmfi la met with a boost from so to 40 per cent in duty while a duty of 38 cents per cubic foot is placed on oranges except fzom british do minions or possessions this is the equivalent of approximately 85 cents per case and is probably a forerun ner of one of the terms of the new australian treaty a tax of 4 cents per pound on bulk teas entering can ada is purely a revenue gesture there are three other highly im portant features of tariff changes one will give the government power tt impose an excise tax to punish any individual manufacturer taking un fair advantage of the tariff to exploit the consumer hitherto no one could be punished without punishing the whole industry represented a sec ond provides that a surtax of 33 13 per cent may be imposed by the gov ernment against any country deemed to discriminate against canada and the third will give authority to lower any duty in the discretion of the government the jump in sales tax from one to four per cent is purely a revenue re as la the reestahllshment of three cent postage on all but city letters and two cent- stamp tax on cheques of all sues ttie new sche dule of income taxes

sober workman it is quite a pleasing and satisfactory nmrmmriltlm on the other hand if he is said to be even aj moderate drinker he wfjl not be likely to obtain a position as the sober workman the power to think and to be alert as well as the sense of sight sue greatly impaired when under the in fluence ot liquor no workman could be a success under these circum stance his power of concentration is ln- palred in as much as he cannot think quickly or clearly this naturally prevents him from taking any special in his work and submerges any inventive power he may possess his sense of vision is dulled evm though to a small extent but may cause the workman to overlook the finer though often very important points in the course of production then tool the workman frequently ees double causing innume nun or mistakes a man suffering the effects of liquor is much slower in his raovements and not much of an asset to- his employ era not only does he- turn out less and poorer work bufoften keeps back his fellow employees a workman who drinks liquor fre quently falls 111 thus being amserr for few days or a week perhaps from his work consequent he not only loses his otherwise good health but does not earn enomgtf money to sup port his family from the various foregoing facts it is easily seen that a workman who is not always sober cannot give the best that is in him and therefore he
