The system adopted in New York State is very efficient. Every mile of highway in that state, outside of the incorporated villages and cities, is placed under the direction of the State Highway Commission. State roads, of which there are about 3,200 miles, are being constructed entirely at the cost of the state. To country roads the State contributes half the cost of construction, and it .also gives one~thir¢ of the cost of township road-s. Th:- maintenance of these roads is based upon the French system where a patrolling foreman takes charge of from four to five miles 0 road. He is provided with a horse and cart, crushed stone, .and ‘ the ne- cessary implements and makes the minor repairs as they are needed. In this way the roads are always kept in perfect condition? While the town- ships and counties pay for part ol‘ "’0 their improved roads, the work on then: is done under the direction of the State Roads Commission. This has been found necessary in order to secure a uniform system of road ma- king. Statute labour has been 31,01- ished, and a system adopted under which the state contributes twenty- five cents for every dollar raised by the township. This is to be the basis of the expen- diture of the ten miliion dollars which Quebec is going to expend on good roads.

The bonusâ€" ]ing principle is unsound, and it is 'under the most exceptional circum- istances that there is any justifica- ltion in resorting to it. l Two short years ago Mr. Borden vi- Igorously opposed the action 0: the lLiberal government in the matter of ;a Canadian navy, asserting that this action was utterly inadequate in force and form. The proposal of the gov- ernment involved the construction of a Canadian squadron of eleven vessels .‘fitted for coast defence, and ready to {coâ€"operate in the most loyal- and hear- 'ty way for the maintenance and'hon- .‘or of the Empire. (From the Edmonton Journal.) A proposal recently made by the Mayor of Lethbridge served as a “horrible example" for those who are in the habit of dwelling on the evils f the bonus system. Some years ago the city induced a woollen manufacturing establishment to locate within its borders. It has proven a sinkhole for the city’s mo- ney, with the returns practically no-‘ thing. EXAMPLE OF THE BONUS SYSTEM The House at that time unanimous- ly resolved that it was the duty of the people at Canada as they increase in numbers and wealth to assume a large measure of responsibility for national defence. Mr. Borden was not satisfied with this, but went on to move: “That, in the meantime, I the immediate duty of Canada, and the imp-ending necessity of the. Empire, can best be discharged and met by placing, without delay, at the dispos- al of the Imperial authorities, as a free and loyal contribution from the people of Canada, such an amount as may be sufficient to; purchase or con- struct two battleships, or armored cruisers of the latest Dreadnought type, giving to the Admiralty full dis- cretion to expend the Said sum at such time and for such purpose as in their judgment may best serve to in- crease the united strength of the ,Em- pire, and thus assure it peace and security.” :I‘HE LINDSAY POST.

Mr. and Mrs. J. Veale. of Toronto are spending a few days with their brother, Mr. A. H..Veale, before go- ing to their new home in the west. (Special to The Post.) The home of Mr. and Mrs. Laidley was the scene of a most enjoyable social evening last Friday evening, March 1st, when Miss Valera enter- tained a number of young people. The forepart of the evening was happily occupied in playing progressive gam- es, fancy boxes of stationery being distributed to the winners, Miss Stin- son and Mr. Brown. After luncheon, the programme was more of a liter- ary nature, characterized by music, recitations of a humorous nature, etc. Evidences of universal enjoyment were evident on every hand not alone in speech and song, but in action, it being among the small hours of the morning before the ecstasy was to any degree allayed. a very pleasant evening spent. The good wishes of their many friends will follow them to their new home. A surprise! party is being given to- night to Mr: and Mrs. Harry Chap- man, who are moving to the west.

ARCHBISHOP SPRATT ’ WITHDRAWS PROHIBITION Standard: The ladies at the head of the “Land of Golden Dreams," the amateur Pantomine being rehearsed in the city under the auspices of the ”Daughters of the Empire, received something of a shock Friday when told that Archbishop Spratt had or- dered the seventy-five Roman Catho- lic children who had been rehearsing for various parts to drop out of the performance on account of it being Lent. The Archbishop's decision would have made a considerable dif- ference in the amount of the receipts if the Roman Catholics were prevent- ed from patronizing the production next week and the efiort to raise a sum of money for the purpose of es- tablishing a retreat for tubercular children would probably have result- ed in a failure. He leaves to mourn his loss besides his loving wife, (who was Miss M. Chambers, of Duluth) his aged father, three brothers and two sisters. They are: Messrs. Wm. Flynn, of Emily; Cornelius of St. Catharines; Thomas, of Fenelon township; Mrs. James Teevin. of Lindsay, and Mrs. James Brady, of West Ops. His remains were interred in Idaho. MICHAEL FLYNN The sad intelligence was received in town on Monday morning of the death in St. Mary’s, Idaho, of Mr. Michael Flynn, son of Mr. Cornelius Flynn, a venerable resident of Dow- neyville. The deceased, who was in his forty-ninth year, lets this section about thirty years ago. He was home on a. visit about five or six years ago. Gazette: In accordance with a sug- gestion made to the school board at a recent meeting by Messrsf A. A. Cameron and D. Robertson, the Board has decided to rearrange and improve the grading of the exisiting classes at the schools, and has ar- ranged for a continuation class tea- cher to fill the'vacancy made by the resignation of Miss Cowles. When the matter was put before the 3 Archbishop in tnis light and he wasI assured that the proceeds would be! devoted to charity, his Grace was! quickly won over, and he decided to grant a special dispensation on Sun- day to allow the children to take part in the performance [and also a special dispensation to allow all Ro- man Catholics to patronize the pro- duction. l SCHOOL CHANGES The south ward school. it is underâ€"I stood, willvbe used exclusively to: OBITUARY AT THE FALLS A GREAT Watch for our Spring Miilinery Announcement.

Advocate: He thought the fire was out and to revive it took the gaso- line can and threw in a. little of the fluid. A flash, the can was at the ceilingâ€"and Mr. Smith was surroundâ€" ed by an atmosphere filled with flame; his clothes were afire, and he was in a fair way to incineration- The report of the explosion, however, brought assistance, and he was drawn from the fire zone, with much of his clothing gone and with face and head badly scorched. All this happened to Mr. Wm. Smith at the foundry Mon- day, and it is truly a marvel that the consequences were not fatal.
