The official statement of the result of the recent census taking in so far as Lindsay's position is concerned in disappointing, and results aflord food for serious consideration on the part of our citizens. In 1901 Lindsay’s population was 7,003. The census returns given out show that in 1911 we had a populat- ion of 6,958, adecre‘ase 0147. Oshawa has forged ahead of us, while we are only 121 ahead of Drillia. Peterboro in the past tenyears made an in- crease of 7,073 and now has a popula- tion of nearly 19,000. Why has Lindsay,s population de- creased in the past ten years ? There are a number of reasons, but the prin ciple one is the lack of “ng3- tiveness” and that spirit of civic loy- alty which is so pronounced in other centres and which accounts for the progress they have made during the last decade. Our Transformation for the lady who has thin hair. cannot be ~ ,. equalled. ALL 01: R ("mops are noted for their superior work- nnnship. exclusive styles, and fine qual- ty Hf hair. I! our citizens ever expect to see our town occupy the proud position which, by virtue of its unflValled ad- vantages, it should occupy. they must sink their unimportant dinerances and get together. Let us profit by the mistakes of the past and let us arise to a sense of our great possibilities. Lindsay can be made the best town in Canada, irom an industrial standpoint, it our people would only bestir themselves. We have no use for the laggard who sits down and declares, “Oh, it‘s no use. The other towts have too big a start on us..’ The other towns ten years ago had not the population Lindsay possessed, but their citizens showed a progressiVe spirit and boost. ed their town at every stage. We are now at the parting of the waYs. Aflairs have reached a crisis in the town’s history, and out citi- zens have become awakened to the fact that something must be' done, and done quickly if we are to advance or even hold our own in the race. The public meeting held recently was the introduction at -a more aggre- sive attitude on the part of our citi- zens. The addresses delivered on that occasfion had the right ring and the point emphasiZed was unity on the part of our people. A house divided against itself will assuredly tall, and TE’._se are the kmd of goods that must be procured from a reiiable source.

During his stay in town Mr. Irwin received many expressions of sympa- thy from his friends in his sad loss.
