not have been the hardest hit centre but certainly thinks it was actually by the standards of the prairie northern ontario and apots such as ottawa and montreal toronto had something like a semi tropical december and janu ry true toronto had 22 inches of snow decern ber 12 and some of n was mill on the sidewalks of downtown yonge street mi weeks later true the temperature did drop to 15 below zero during a january cold spell this made for bracing weather in con leant to toronto s usual dull rainy winter and the native just couldn t take it while transplanted snow urn tn from more igorous climes plowed through the locly atuff with noses upthrtfm into the cold clear air native torontonians enwend beside their hrcpuics i or hugged each other in sardine fashion in strict cars there are two schools of thought on why native torontonians couldn t stand the snow and cold ns well at outsiders from say ottawa the long under wear and the porridgefor breakfast schools proponents of the long underwear theory hold that torontonians can i expect to weather old fash toned weatheiin a new tangled idea like short cotton underwear puj thenall of them women included in long woollen underwear for the winter and torontonians will be almost as hardy as other folks they say rut the porridgefor breakfast school believe this is all nonsense that underwear doesn t majtc any difference the trouble with torontonians and the cold they contend is that the queen city natives cat cold breakfast food on cold mornings they p re scribe heaping bowls of hot porridge taken inter nalyatew ore bnvtng

age considerable amount of groceries and other family in europe and the growth of larfe industrial centre have been important contributing factors another factor has been the rapid expansion- of wartime in duatnes which give strawy employment and payjitgh wages many thousand of citnens have had more ready money than they were accustomed to having before the war they have not been able to

liquor drinking we have m doubt that there are many good cihens who will nut see any reason for alarm in the growth of the drink habit they prohably believe that drinking will dr crease in volume

enough or it and much of it is both worn nut and primitive townships arc learning that ordinary gravel trucks are too light for effective snow plough ing and for the county roads big fast equipment with blower attachment is highly desirable in southern ontario where heavy snowfall is the exception rather than the rule there is not eiwiugh equipment of any kind for the mileage to be cleared more effective work under emergency conditions could probably bc done if townships and county would co operate more allocate the roads each would undertake to keep clear and have adequate ninchiu cry in
