politician named gordon has term ed a onehorse weekly wc will use the horsesense greeting of wishing you all a happy and prosperous new year the good newspaper section mr hugh tcmplin in his reminiscences a week or so ago of that inside page of the fergus news- record has an interesting comment on his contem poraries he says to the north of us and in all that broad expanse of territory from lake huron to lake simcoe there tire many weekly papers and wc believe that innny of ontarios greatest weekly newspapermen have been developed in that area and that mnny of the best and liveliest weeklies of the present time are to be found there mnny of the brightest weekly papers in ontario come to the news- record office each week as exchanges and wc study them nil they ore not confined to the territory wc mention but it is surprising what a large proportion of them come from that district which is bounded on the east by ftarrie on the west by kincardine and the lake on the nortli by winrton colhngwood und georgian bay and on the south by a more indefinite boundary which might be fixed by a line drawn through acton and st marys in thnt district are a number of papers which are noted for their readable editorials many of the towns have much in common ind often a problem will be discussed by several editors fnem different viewpoints it is one of the delights of our work to reiiu these exchanges und many nn idea has come from them how little the milton keformcrcvhknuy found much food for comment in the columns of tut full pitiss of december 13 commenting on the dinner sponsored by judge elliot referring to in our columns as a news article of that date the reformer says tun acton fpci press was a little out last week when it stated that judge elliot had given a banquet to a number of halton lawyers nndafew friends at the milton inn recently the facts of the case are thnt these lawyers were attending u session of the equaliration cf the county assessment commission und his honor simply invited themto take dinner with him nt the inn thats alt there was to it as to judge elliots retirement from the bench wc understand the government is desirous that he continue on for the present we ore sure this would be very satis factory to nil concerned should his honor accede to the request it doesnt so much matter whether it was a banquet or dinner or whether it was tendered or given but it will give a feeling of general satis faction to know that possibly judge elliot will not retire from the bench at the present time most haltonians would like to see hjm occupy the judge ship for u number of years yet we have known of a lot of very eminent persuaders who tried to change the judges decision at various times without avail and possibly we took it for granted that on ibis occasion persuasion was futile should tlie govern ment succeed however in persuading him to con tinue on it will certuinly find favor in every quarter of the county and we trust he muy be persuaded io accede to the request we find in the article we used both words dinner and banquet and according to that source of information it i sometimes neces sary to turn to to settle an intricate point wc find websters dictionary says thnt a dinner is tlie prin cipal meal ot the luy eaten by most people about midday but by muny between six and eight p ui also a formal repast or feast answering to this as one in honor of some person or event and as to banquet the same uther authority says a feast often u complimentary or ceremonious feast follow ed by speeches we fiave no available

wltt ings for only a matter of ten or eleven years so service with paul the labor involved possibly in history farther back such functions were usual but of late years they have not been the getting together around the table where the social side of the various men was brought out from a different ungle was the feature it is said that the most direct route to a mans heart is through his stomach and possibly this was the reason that better understanding was had around this table provided by mr and mrsiv mason councillor thctford summed the matter up in his very concise speech and reeve alason in reply possibly showed the other phase that made this event rather important the group of men had been together in regular business session throughout the year and yet an entirely new phase of cuch individual was shown in this social function which is bound to make for a better understanding throughout 1920 and reeve mason pointed out that the opinion of his associates- often at variance with his own views were none the less respected and admtrod and usually opposition and a careful study of the question revealed weak points the getting together at the reeves home was more than t pleasant social time and undoubtedly better under standing of the municipal work and of each other will be the result of the evening so spent acton will be better guided as a result of the development of this
