A. Welsh. The new inspectars wiil make spot checks o! licensed premises througlaut their territory, which will coincide clasely with existing county lines, and will wark under the direct supervision of the chie! inspectar. Tley will be empawered ta take immediate action against '~.l 4cne lles "who permit drunkenness ar dirty premises in- stead o! filing a camplaint ta the Ontario Liquor License Board." "Dirty premises or drunkenness will bring immediate action," said Mr. Welsh. "No time wîll be last in invaking penalties, as in the case at present with the inspectars filing reports for later consider- atian a! the Liquar License Board." Object o! the Gavernment's re- vamped liquor policy ta "ta de- centralize official actian ta bring about speedy remedial action an any violation a! regulatians." "We are cutting out the red tape and serving full warning that we mean business," le said. The liquor commissioner also warned municipalities receiving 20 per cent o! taxes collected on liquor sales in tîcir area that they will lave ta provide bctter police supervision of licensed premises or face ioss o! iquor-tax revenue. "If we get no work fram a mun- icipality, they get no money," le added. Mn. Welsh said the Ontario Cabinet is continuing its study a! aIl problems involveci in a mare efficient contraI. o! licensed pre- mises throughout the province.

ONTARIO PONýYPOOL A letter trom our bulldozer friend, Clyde Bryenton, tells us he is well and wishes to be remem- bered to aIl his acquaintances. Says he likes the people around here better than the ones where he is. He noticed the horses have very short legs up there. Upon enquiry, discovered that it is so cold in winter the horses have to be towed to get them started, thus, wearing their legs down. The folks around here staged a dance during the evening of July 5 in the Orange Hall. Everybody and their Auntie was present ana thoroughly enjayed the evening's program, which included the prie- sentation to Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Hyland, of a kitchen suite. The bride looked stunning, the groom looked stunned, especially when he felt the occasion demand- ed that le go to the centre of the stage to voice his thanks. It hap- pened to us one time, so we know' how hie feit. Your tongue sticks to the roof of your month, legs feel ail rubbery, ahl the smart wisecracks you know just don't seemi suitable, your hands seem to be as big as dinner plates, be- sides being in the way, you try to put tlem in your trousers po- ckets; no good, tley're too sweaty, how about the waist coat? too small, s0 you fold tlem, only ta realize you look like Napolean refusing his first lance carporal's stripe. You let tlem, hang at your sides, anly to realize they might drop off. By this time you notice the young folks in the audience are getting restless, the older anes look bored, wisl you would sit down, you're flot saying anything worthwhile anyway. At long last you sit down. The crowd immed'.- ately breaks into frenzied ap- plause, then sings "For they are Jolly Good Fellows." Then, goes on with the business of enjaying itself. These affairs are alright, because it gives the recipients a fine boost in the furniture line, at the same time costing each donor very little individually. To say nothing o! the social evening. When you dance tili you sweat like a hien hauling rails, get your best shoes and pet carns trampled on, get a bawling out from the wife because you pay tao much at- tention to a nice little grass wi- dow. Sneak outside to split a bottle o! beer with the boys, only to have your breath give you away later on. You buy a package o! cigars 'with which to treat your cronies, lay the coat on a chair, only to have a hefty two hundred paund plus person sit on that very chair and squash the giblets out o! the cigars, besides breaking two ten cent pencils that you neyer used anyway, but just kept in the breast packet because you tlought it lelped make you look like a big- shot. Finally, it is time ta go home. You're dog tired. It has been a great evering. Now for same sleep! Then it is that you can't locate the car keys, the wife has got lier second wind, is discussing quilt making with a couple o! oth- er outraged biddies, the youngest boy is trying ta buy a coke, the other lad has walked anc o! thec village girls lame, will be back! right away, the fellow living on1 the next farmi expects you to waitj while hie buys a bottle o! bloat cure from the hardware man. AtJ last you start for home, develop1 a couple o!fifat tires, run out of gas. Yau just snuggle down in bed, when a blasted whip-poor- will perches in the nearest tree1 and goes into lis sang and dance.i When hie decides ta, fly away, the alarm rings, it is time to rise. The radio says it's gaing to be 96 de-1 grees, your lead is splitting, it ]oesn't heIp matters when you re- alize you have ta mix cement ini behind the evergreens where there1 is na wind, for that new drivingc shed.è The rural correspondent doesn'ts cill any o! the foregoing, except1 that, the groqm- suitably thanked te audience for their kindness,r agaod time was lad by aIl. Nuts!1 Hape we get an invite ta the next0 ne.-t Neil Curtis had ta have the brio- t, ken bones in his land reset, rec- fi ntly, besides having lis head in- d bad, because a lot of jeople de- pend on spuds ta pay jhe mort- gage off and provide gro#îries for next winter. Then, we mt*n't for- get the expensive seed, feftilîzer, spray material, hired help, costiy machinery that have to be finanè- ed. .The tobacco farmers in this area are in the same boat too and are keeping their fingers crossed. While the folks who go in' for cattie, are going around in circles, trying to figure out where the winter feed is going to came from. Bill Miller is building a new 30x70 barn. The local Synagogue now las the roof on. One o! the summer resorts is feeling the pinch of wa- ter. Rye and wheat wîll soon be ready for the grain binder.

Dr. Poling Sees Hope For World In Practical Idealism Because war cannot be isalated, peace cannot be îsolated; and neither thc U.S. nor Canada can ever again be secure uniess ahI other nations are equally secure Sudh was the message deliverec- by Dr. Daniel A. Poling, president a! the Worid Christian Endeavor Union, at thc closing service of the International Christian Endea- vor convention at Trinity Unitý-c I CluncI, Toronto, on Sunday. "Christian Endcavor knows that cammunism and Clnistianity car. neyer be reconciled," le saici. "There is a great gui! between God. and anti-God. But if ar faith is strong enougl, war won't came again. Already there arc signs o! weakness and disintegra- tion within the gadless goverri- ments. Clnistianity will prevail." Re!erring to members of Christ- îan Endeavor as practical idealists, le said they looked for bath op- portunity and secunity. Beiieving that patriotism begins at home, tley'asked fia gaod ýor tlemselves' that they would na f slare witl a1 mankind. "The Torono convention ha demanstratcd thc faith o! yout( that there is a better way thar war, that Christian realism can win thc p'eace," le declared. "To- ronto las been the platform of high purpose ta young Christians of Canada and the U.S. Tlcy lave ieclarcd their determination ta spread goodwill throughout tîcir lands and beyond the seas. The interdenominatianal, inter- racial and world-wide Christian Endeavor mavement, with its 3, 000,000 young members and 50 na- tional unions, lad showed the Pro- testent dhurcI low, withaut uni- aormity, it could cross ah ulnes of division and unite in the feliow- shp o! service, le said. Rev. J. Clinton Hoggard, direct- or o! Christian education o! youth in the African Metlodist Episcopal Zion Clurch o! Yonkers, N.Y., was pleascd to iind Toronto so quiet on le Sabbath. He called upon mem- bers ta influence their legislatures, to make Sunday a day of rest.

Walter Judd, Minnesota representative in the U.S. Congress. A medical missionaxy in China for 14 years, Dr. Judd said, "sup- pose the Marshall Plan restores a rough balance, with Russia on one side, the democracies on the oth- er. Which way the balance tips depends on Asia, and the hub o! the wheel in Asia is China. The Chinese are a free-thinking people and they want a democratic way of life, according to Dr. Judd. "But tley will yield to the inevi- table (communism) unless we wake up." FaIl Fair Dates Are Announced The 1949 list o! faîl fair dates tîrouglout the Province o!

Smnall Percentage Play Hookey From Canadlian Sehools Playing hookey is the cause of anly a small percentage of absen- teeism in Canadian schaols, says a report issued by the National Committee o! Schoal Health Re- search. It amaunts to only a fraction of one per cent. This research organization is financially supported by the life insurance companies doing busi- ness in Canadla and has just com- pleted a study of more than 15,- 000 Canadian school children. The stud y makes available for the ft tme an accurate, national picture of student absenteeism. It reveals that more than 80 per cent of ail absenteeisma is due to medical reasons and that par- ental neglect appears ta be the most important of non-medical causes. The study involved the keeping o! detailed records for 'the school year in representative areas and a further year's analysis of the data so gathered. Urban and rural students were treated separately while absences were analyzed as to specific cause and by age group and sex. The fre- quency o! school absence was studied [n its relationship ta economie and social status, size of family, school progress and par- ents' occupation. About a quarter million people participated in the gold rush of '97-'98 to the Klondike.

In many cases, the difference lies more in financing than farming. Many successful farmers follow one simple ruie to finance improvements. They know that keeping too much cash around leads to easy spending. So, as soon as they receive payment for produce, they set part of it aside in a special savings account at the Bank of Montreal. Then they just "forget" they have this money until they need it to finance bigger and better crops, more livestock, or labor-saving equipment. You, too, can boost your profits by saving regulariy at the B. of M. G. E. Moody, branch manager at Bowmanville, invites you to drop in now and open your Fpecial account for farm-progress financing.
