The Midland Free Press put its views in the following commendâ€" able way: "For ourselves, we believe that the Govâ€" _er it would make much better progress towards I the dormant building industry to work if it would lift a portion of the real estate tax burden. If the Dominion would assume responsibility for j and the Provinces would pay the complete cost of High School education, social and health services from ten to fifteen mills could be removed from the tax rate of most municipalities, and it would again ‘be profitable to build and own houses. Then private _ en would put its own money into construcâ€" and we should see a boom such as we have not for many years. The abolition of the tax on building materials will be a great help industry.

Of these, 2,890 came from the United States, 1573 from the British Isles, 3,702 of other races. en relief in Toronto in June. This is about one in ten of the entire population. Little wonder that the business community is becoming alarmed and calling for action that will bring improvement. The pension fund of the United Church of Canada last year provided in part for 800. ministers, 654 widows and 127 orphans. The total amount veted was $747,738, divided as follows: ministers, $463,788; widows, $244,099; orphans, $10,040. At present there ‘are 2500 ministers and missionaries paying into the fund. A considerable fncrease is required in order to meet the just claims of the dserving clergy. Mayor Day better watch his step. He recently condemned the Toronto Parks‘ Department for perâ€" mitting dancing lessons being given to elderly women in supervised playgrounds at the expense of the taxpayers. Such expenditure the Mayor believes would do more good in being directed to lower the tax rate. Mayor Day is right. If the old dears want to dance they should pay the piper out of their own resources. At the age of 92 and 89 years respectively, Mr. and Mrs. Courtland Fralick of East Lake, near Picton, are supporting themselves on an acre of land. They grow a variety of fruits and vegetables and do their own work. Contrast these elderly people with the relief recipients of today and one can readily understand why the country and municipalities are hard up and are going haywire all the time, comâ€" ments the Meaford Express. Stories of suffering and near starvation by fisherâ€" men and their families in Nova Scotia are told by Harold Dingman in a series of special articles in The Globe and Mail. That men should toil in all sorts of weather for a few cents a day seems incredible, but such is the fact. The conditions dealt with have been reported to parliament on several occasions, but without success. Perhaps exposure in the press will be more effective. Ontario people should read the articles.

[b"",'.":;l_“ o n s On one occasion the lad, who was working at the time as a private chauffeur, took his employer‘s car out one night without permission and "wrapped it around a lampâ€" post." * Father McEvoy, when he heard about the accident, sat down and wrote his son a letter containing a great deal of food for thought which should be thoroughly digested by everyone who drives a car. Here is what he wrote: Dear Son: You used up a lot of paper exâ€" plaining how the accident was not ‘gour fault, and I can believe you. ‘ ut you are goin{ to continue to drive cars, and a few words on the subject won‘t do any harm. In the 25 years that I have been driving automobiles, I have never met anyâ€" one who had an accident through his own faultâ€"it was alwagn u&g car, the road, or the Other Fellow. Mostly, the Other Fellow. This Other Fellow is worth some study. There seems to be no escapâ€" ing him. To look Â¥ him, you wchd think he was harmless, but last year he killed a great many people, andâ€" injured many, many more. I have seen the Other Fellow, and certainly he doesn‘t look like a killer. Someâ€" times he is a goung, niceâ€"looking kid like you. Sometimes he is a mildâ€"looking, middleâ€"aged fellow like me. Sometimes he is a gentle, sweet, little woman like your mother, but that only goes to show you can‘t judge by appearances. he'l a killer, and no mistake, and something is going to be done about itâ€"or is it? Some time ago, the champion safety driver of one of the largest bus comg:nios in the world was {lm a banquet and a medal. He ad completed half a million miles without an accident. When they called on him forf a s h, he rose and said: "I ain‘t rnue: of a hand at making speeches. I suppose you want to know how I got away so long without an accident* I just fot one rule. I drive like the other ellow was crazy." % So that seems to explain it. The Other Fellow is crazy. If you cut out of “h'l'. o:o 16'”1.- ;o;d ‘::; expect him you push him the ditch, so you can cut in again. If you pass a car on a blind curve, don‘t expect the fellow coming the _ Yer, no‘s crazy, but you are rude â€"and that‘s what makes him crazy.

For All Who Drive One Rule TIMES AND GUIDE &: For every accident caused by high specding, there are a thousand caused gy low breeding. Is it coinâ€" cidence that the continent which leads in fatalities lags in formaliâ€" ties? We may not be the most unâ€" civil people on two feet, but we cerâ€" tainly are the prize terrors on four Today we put a premium on agility rather than civility, Each year our manners become cruder as our gasoline becomes more refined. Wide roads won‘t prevent acciâ€" dents, so long_as they continue to fill up with narrow people. Good brakes on cars are‘ no g:ouction against bad breaks in behaviour. The Â¥rowinz problem of automoâ€" bile fatalities will not be solved around the drafting board, but around the family table. Then we can have a monster under the hood, because there will be a gentleman at the wheel.
