visible bat mothers do like to know once in a while that son and daughters do care for them sometimes the things that mothers are always dbing fos the com fort of others are overlooked sometimes the sacri fices become commonplace by their repetition yes wear a rower write a letter but tell mother too that you do appreciate her evevyday oversight and kind ness tell to the world with your floral emblems that you honor your mother or her memory she will appreciate your loyalty but she will also enjoy that kindly word from you of appreciation you can strew roses in her pathway any day with these kindly words qb schools on the roads ratepayers throughout the county would take a similar view to warden hewson that the tax rate should be he same or lower this year with munici palities securing greatly decreased school grants from the county it would naturally be expected that tho rate would be lower since the expenditure was lessened by these amounts of course if expenditures of 4000 are to be made on road machinery the rate cannot be reduced it would seem that this expenditure would need explanation by the committee townships have been purchasing new road machinery the province has taken over some miles of road formerly maintained by the county isn t there some danger of the machinery getting into collision on some of the roads the need forgood roads is admitted by all bui schools require upkeep also and if grants are decreased to the municipalities a similar lowering of the county rate should be made taxpayers will have an additional amount to meet unless the county rule is lower by the same amount of the decrease of grants perhaps that is the reason that oach member of tho committee found it necessary tp explain re garding the tractor expenditure at the

the clear cut evidence of other witnesses who were plainly endeavoring to give as clear a picture as possible of their findings it would be email wonder indeed if juries found the stories a bit confusing it ia noticeable always thaf where the evidence given is intended to influence the decision that invariably it becomes selfcontra dictory before conclusion and ends in a great deal of confosion for the witness in view of this we have often wondered just why witnesses will attempt to cover up vital faqts when giving evidence hie public always pays the brampton conservator gives the

you will what material benefit to the public at large was derived from these expenditures and put opposite the figure it cost and in nearly every instance the price will be ridiculous for the good accomplished its perhaps an easy way for governments to come out from under responsibility but its certainly one of the things that makes the cost of government high and the public always pays the
