torpedo boats wcrp on the list the dreadnought which was built only fif teen years ngo brought fifty shillings ton of ac- tunt displacement the other ships presumably went cheaper teach children danger from autos it is most regrettable that so many accidents arc occurring to children throughout the country through motor cars most of these occur becauso of the thoughtlessness of the children running- across tho btrcots without looking for danger fortunately acton has been largely immuno from these deplor able accidents parents should teach their children not to play on tho streets in town and by doing so accidents can bo prevented too many children have the habit of running across the road in front of auto thinking that they can tell the distance and how fast the car is travelling they should be impressed at homo with tho fact that there is danger in an automobile no matter how careful the driver is i lowers weepers finders keepers v tha old couplet of our school days losers weeper finders keepers is a clumsy fracture bf the golden itulc tho person who finds an article and keeps it after it has been advertised for is in tho eyes of tho law as well an morally as guilty as tho person who commits a deliberate theft moreover tho person who finds a thing of any value- and does not make an effort to find the owner is dishonest keeping a thing you find when the owner may be discovered is as bad as stealing it thd observance of thoprinciplcs of tho golden itulo will bring added happiness to any community newspapers in same families over sixty yeans tho markham economist savs two ontario papers have entered their fortyseventh year the thurold post achieved such longevity some six weeks ago and titr acton free irrss last week tho economist saw its birth in markham in july 1 856 just as years ngv and the newmarket lira was born in ibm the bra was founded by the late erastus jackson and his son lyman is now the proprietor- oditor the economist wasfounded by the late hon david hcesor and in i87 was acquired by his brotherinlaw tho late h r corson who took his son r- j corson into partnership in 1877 and tho latter is still tho ownereditor both the era and the economist have been published by tho same families ever since they were established we doubt if there arc any other papers in canada over bfty years old 6f which the same can be said j ilatepayerv letter and the waterworks it will not satisfy tho people of acton for the jteovo and the members of tho council to say that because ratepayer wrote under a nom do plume his letter a couple of weeks ago pointing out alleged delinquencies mid inadequacies in connection with tho waterworks installation and the carrying into effect of tho specifications of the contract that tuey have no obligation to answer the letter is bona fldo ratepayer is an interested citizen his criticisms manifest a keen interest in matters vital to the futura of the town it issurely up to the council and tho engineers to defend their positions there is an element of anxioty among our residents which these officials should endeavor to allay by frank statements and confident assurances it is quite probable they can readily do this if they will- tho interests of the town will surely be best served by presenting such statements and assurances without further delay the people of this town who are largely interested expect it more they demand it home trading and the taxes one day last week tho editor was stopped on tho street by a welltodo town ratepayer who wished to say something about the unusually large amount of town taxes he had just paid there was nothing un usual in his complaint about the high rate of taxa tion but when we noticed that ho was carrying an armful of parcels from a mail order house we won dered if ho ever stopped to consider to what extent he was himself to blame for the high taxes the volupinpoftrade sent annually from this community to the mail order houses would if done at home have enabled tho town business houses to be in a position to pay a much larger share of the taxes than they do now which would have relieved the general taxpayer to that extent we cannot dq our trading in other places without sharing in the loss which our towri suffers thereby the welfare of the individual de pends very largely on tho prosperity of tho com munity ip which he resides those cltitens who send their money to other places should not complain if they find a steady increase in the cost of maintaining their own municipal institutions thoir schools their churches and other local interests forest free press sgv bk- ife ki the adolescent school attendance act a great deaf ha been heard on tho most im portant topic of the adolescent school attendance tactrit is an innovation in ihlsrprtfvlneeand amost important one in order that the public and par ticularly those interested in educational matters may know of the action of the ontario department of education relating to this matter the following in formation is given tho adolescent school atten dance act by tho proclamation of the lleuf-gover- nor made on the 13th day of july 1020 will como into force and take effect as follows section 3 on september i 1021 section 7 on september 11023 and section d on september i 1 022 the purpose of bringing tho act into force by stages is to make it possible to adjust gradually school accommodations courses of study and employments in industries to the conditions set up by the requirements of tho act section 3 of the act which comes into opera- t ionon september i i02i provides for the atten dance at school or adolescents between fourteen and sixteen years of age the minister announces that in cpnfprmlty with this section of tho act pupils are expected to remain in fulltime attendance at school until ihoy are sixteen years of age unless employed ton the authority of a home permit or an employment certificate as provided for by the act but that it is not hni intention tp ihltruct attendance officers to make the act retroactive by endeavoring to compel young persons between fourteen and sixteen years of age yiho have been engaged in regular employment to return tdschool school authorities accordingly will in the beginning be charged with providing only for the continued instruction of those who are alpresent at school and not for tho numbers who might bo forced return machootby the strictest interpretation of the act at the same time the minister expects that hie act will be made fully offec- tiyo to tho extent that attendance officers be ap pofntodaccordlng to lav and their departments or- ganfrod lb ensure flrst that all young peropa be tween fourteen and sixteen years of ago shall be either at school or atvork and second that all those who are at work either at homo orjn gtn crn- l i shall hold tho permits or certificates ref vs measures to itnprove provincial finances the statutes of ontario for 1021 are not yet in tho hands of the general public and numbers of meas ures passed and amendments to existing acts have consequently ndt become familiar in addition to the usual appropriation and loan acts changes are made in the corporations tax act which wijl have the effect of increasing the revenue derived from tho tax on banks and other institutions further revenue may be expected from the land transfer tax act whict imposes a tax of onefifth of one per cent upon th6 purchase price on tho sale of land and nrowdes for its collection through tho registry offices an other revenue bill is one providing for the imposition of a tax on billiard and pool rooms and bowiing alleys the ontario companies act has bpen amend ed to require all companies incorporated outside the province of ontario and carrying on business in this province to file annually the same report as that heretofore required of companies incorporated in ontario and to pay to the provincial treasurer the prescribed fees in connection therewith by this measure it is hoped to increase substantially the revenue of the province and to obtain tor public convenience much desirabletnformation with regard to tho corporate status and affairs of all such com panies prluah knabaigo on cattle likely to be removed it must be gratifying to cattle raisers and the canadian public generally to learn that the british authorities are now pretty well convinced that tho em bargo which has existed against the entrance of can adian cattle to great britain was instituted on an entirely nonexistant claim hon s f tolmle federal minister of agriculture who has jusf re turned from an interview with the british commis sion says think wo have shown them in a most conclusive manner that there never has been and is aot likely to be for many years any disease among canadian cattle dr tolmie stated he had made it perfectly clear that tho british embargo against canadian cattle had been instituted on an entirely false claim tho embargo was placed on the as sumption that pleuropncumonia existed among can adian cattlo some thirtyseven years ago- after some thorough investigation this charge had been com pletely exploded it rested with the british authori ties as a matter of honor to take away this aspersion made again canadian cattle if the british authori ties wanted to exclude canadian cattle all well and gqod that was entirely their own business but if such a course was to bo adopted lot it be made plain that it wa3not because of any taint of disease tho minister said one of tho strongest points emphasized before the british commission was the fact that canada could export her cattle to tho united states france belgium and germany but that its natural market the mother country was practically closed to her editorialnotes domestic manufacturers and retail merchants who cry buy in canada and yet hold out for wartime prices for their goods were warmly criticized by hon walter rollo minister of labor at a mass meeting of
