After the organization of town- | ships, pathmasters were appointed and it was their duty to exact from | each of the dwellers along the roads | & certain amount of labor and ma- | terial. This system was the first | toundation of the county roads and | the old '"'corduroys" were the result. | Then they were "considered good-- | now they would not be considered at [ am. But the farmers had little | money and transportation facilities | were lacking and it was the best sys- f tem possible. Its greatest drawback | was that' a conscientious and able | man, who built his own stretch of | road well, left it and had to use a | poor piece of road by some other | farmer and there was little uniform- | ity. | Then the Toll Road act came into | force, by which companies built and | maintained the roads and erected | gates at which fees were charged for [their use. Single horses, teams and passengers were charged different | rates, and later the fees for passen- | gers were 'discarded. Of these the Storrington road was the most suec- cessful because of having no costly | bridges to build and maintain. The | Perth road was started by John A. { Macdonald, afterwards Sir John, and | his brother with the idea of linking up with Perth. It cost £20,000 and extended only into Loughboro town- ship before becoming a financial fail- ure. The Portland road was a simi- lar venture. The Bath road was built by a company, stock being taken by residents of the section. The road to Philipsville was largely backed by Kingston city. It started at the Cataraqui bridge and had five toll gates. The York road, the old- est and best, was built by the British government for military purposes. It was one of the best in Canada and has still a wonderful foundation, The goods roads movement in pro- vincial circles was a big step forward and under it the most progress has been made. There are 225 miles of roads in Frontenac county and they are laid out like the spokes in a wheel--straight to different outside | points and many of them. Few cities are so well supplied. The suburban area idea, by which city, county and province share the cost of.roads near the city, was first started by Toronto and has proven a big success all over the province. "The boundaries of a city are as far out as you can reach for busi- ness," said Mr. Fair. "Good roads mean better business.' Kiwanians Sparks, Harry Lockett, Frank Day, and J. S.

The Wiser Counsel. Both the French and the Germans are bellicose people. Many Ger- mans mutter beneath their breath that the day of revenge will come, and the French are determined to place themselves in such a position that another war shall not find them ill-prepared. But if both French and Germans are made to understand that, if another war does come, Pa- ris, Berlin, Lyons, Leipzic and many other cities will be bombed to anni- hilation they will surely per- celve that it iy not winning the next war that is vital matter of life and death for both of them, but war does not happen. The cholo be- tween being victorious but destroyed, and being defeated with annihila- tion, is merely ome of the terms.
