The annual meeting of the Chil- dren's Aid Society was held in the council chamber of the city hall on Wednesday afternoon and there was a large attendance of the 'members from both the city and county. The report of the president, Dr. E. C. D. McCallum, and that of the agent, William Black, showed that a large amount of very valuable humanitar- ian work was being done and that the officers were} inspired by the highest motives. All of the reports evoked applause. Dr. McCallum reviewed the work of the year and directed attention to three special problems. The first was the appointment of a suitable man as agent. In securing My. Black he felt that the society was very fortunate. Two new provincial acts came into force, the unmarried parents' act and the adoption act. They were carried out in a most sat- isfactory manner. Some points in the constitution had to be modified. It was necessary to secure the re- cognition of the liability for wards in the home by various municipali- ties. Referring 'to the making of wards, he said that the society was merely doing thé work that the city would have to do if the society did not exist. Seventy-five cents a day was charged. They were all indebt- ed to Warden Sibbitt of Frontenac county for the way the county coun- cll recognized its liability and paid its accounts. He regretted the loss of two very || valuable members in the persons of Mrs. Conde of the Salvation Army by her removal to Toronto, and Mrs. Bruce Taylor, who was obliged to resign from the executive owing to illness. W. M. Nickle, resigned as solicitor and he was succeeded by Francis King. Both rendered valu- able service. Referring to the future, Dr. Me- Callum said he would like to have better office accommodation for the agent. He regretted that there was so little knowledge of the govern- ment acts governing the care of children, and expressed the hope that there would be a more kindly disposition shown toward the little ones. Foster parents have a duty, and they should not use children simply to get work out of them. adopted them as members of r own families. poultry.

IS TAX-EXEMPT What are tax exempt securities? -- Tax exempt securities represent money borrowed by some branch of government (federal, state, munici- pal), to be used for government un- dertakings. These securities are | tax exempt because, although the state and federal governments can and do tax their own issues at times they 'cannot tax the issues of one another. The tax exemption is written into the bond to make it more attrac- tive and more salable at a lower in- terest rate. A rich man can keep the entire 5 per cent which he may receive from a municipal bond, his income tax may take half of the 7 per cent. he receives from the bond Nat- urally, this type of investment is a refuge for large incomes which aré subject to' a high income tax. The exact amount of tax exempt securities cannot be measured, and estimates vary from fifteen to thirty billion dollars. They have increased rapidly in the last few years and many authorities expect an output of about two billion a year in the near future. This compares with less than half a billion-a year prior to 1919, | PN 3 | match, with a Simmons Ban This 4-piece Bedroom Suite with Bow-end Bed, Chifforobe and Vanity Dresser, and Bench to ner Spring and Felt n our window Saturday--at Mattréss for . .

The United States company bases their right ta registration on the contention that they were first users of the name.
