that a town may bo rather accurately judged as fur as progrcssiveness is concerned by tho way in which ir supports itmicwsrmper- in otherword a creditable and prosperouslooking newspaper may be safely taken as an indication of u live and enterpris ing community the reason is plain a live town nutu rally demands n representative newspaper or newspapers and there will always be found someone to moot the demands almost without exception it may be found that a town has just about as good a newspaper as it deserves sometimes better than it deserves chronicles of ginger farm written hpeolau f tbo vtm

tho most important addresses on the programme referred to motor ac cidents and the penalties which should he imposed as follows i am satisfied from my oxperionco on the bench and elsewhere that tho majority of ac- ci dents are duo cither to cutting in or out or to carelessness at an intersection and at tho base of these two faults lies speed which in each instance and under its individual circumstances is excessive i have made if a practice to enquire from counsel in every case where speed or cutting out has occurred why such haste i have never been able to obtain a reply showing any valid reason for other than a moderate and careful speed i wish magistrates would try tho same question if they do they will perhaps make violators realize that motoring is not a question of miles per hour generally hut rather why they should not for a moment or two slacken speed and avoid the nccident life is lost and families destroyed just because for a hort minute or so the cur was pujider instant control this is negligent or reckless driving the tale of disaster is appalling and it wiundvor bo stopped until the magistrates impose imprisonment us well as lines on nil offcjulers against the humane rule of du re for otheis this comment by mr justice hodgins is woithy of the consideration of every motorist who uses our highways hence wc pass it on tor genernl perusal editorial notes thanksgiving sundny and thanksgiving dny were trom the point of weather alone real cause foi thankfulness as beautiful fall days the improved railway crossing on mill street must be a real pleasure for motorists now the im proved grades and the tondwny between the ties is to say the least an appreciated improvement measured up as a small unit in the days of remembrance at thanksgiving and armistice time acton has always measured up and this year was no change in the unswerving loyalty and duty in thotobsorvation of this great day the residents of acton and the dis trict turned out on monday in goodly numbers mid in a spirit of reverence and remembrance fittingly paid tribute to the glorious dead and renewed an obligation to carry on the work of promoting pence which task had been undertaken by those who fought iiitlicrreatwarandravcthcir bring about peace never yet has acton ond the d tfttrietf ailed in thiadtity itmcasureduptoitb obligation on monday nomination day in u week owing to a change in the statute governing municipal elections the nominations this year will be held on friday november 21 instead of monday just exactly a week before the election date the reason buck of the change is to give returning officers more time to prepare ballots and other necessary documents the posters arc out announcing this date and the elections the reeve and councillors aro required to bo nominated one publtchutilitics commissioner and four members for the school y board three members of the board retire this year and chairman bcswick has also resigned irinking it necessary to have four incmhcrs fleeted judging from the quiet attitude of the ratepayers just a week boforo nominations it would appear thqt the ad ministration of the year has been viewed with much satisfaction acton has made good progress and had a good business administration 0n friday evening of next week november 21 the ratepayers afo called upon to appoint those who shall adminis ter the affairs for 1031 it is a time for selecting men who in your judgment will best administer the sptfiidiug of tho thoutumdc of dollars underthen care your vote is not a favor to hand out in return for good fellowship it is your voice in the admiuis- tration of the affairs of acton for tho best advant ages of the community os n whole use it not as a means of personal satisfaction but as your influ
