While there are many in favor of the pro- posal, there are also, no doubt, many who are op- posed to the idea, claiming that the present struc- mm is; adeuuate. and that any additional expendi- out, Ill-v- v v. yv -~ -â€" . posed to the idea, claiming that the pres ture is adequate, and that any additiona ture is uncalled for. There should be little sentiment in t sion, as an analysis of the whole situz show that it is good business to see that ‘ is carried and that the Trustee Board be authority to go ahead. . . . _- --_--..‘A Annntni W A TSON.

This has been done without unduly burdening employers by spreading the cost of the accidents over the industries in the various classes set up by the Workmen’s Compensation Board. It is interest- ing to note that, of the six Provinces in Canada in which there are Compensation Boards, Ontario, be- ing more fnportant industrially, pays ou by far the largest s m each year. In this Provi the max- imum weekly award which can be made is $25.64 which represents two-thirds of the maximum of $2,000 per annum on which compensation can be paid under the Ontario Act. The benefits to injured workers or their de- pendents in Ontario are extremely liberal. In New York State, for instance, the maximum award possible is $20 per week or more than 20 per cent. less than can be awarded in this Province, although the costs to industry in New York State are in the main higher than in Ontario. This 18 doubtless due to several factors, one being the efficient adminis- tration of the Workmen’s Compensation Act by the Ontario Board and another the constant campaign against accidents which is being carried on in a large percentage of the plants under the compensa- tion here. Costs, however, of five and a half million l or six million dollars per annum, as we have had in 1 Ontario for the past several years, must continue to ‘ focus the attention of industry on an extension of the accident prevention work being done. One of these should be to “Vote Right” on elec- tion' day, January 3, for both members of next year’s Town Council and the High School Extension. A dollar saved is a dollar earned. Durham ratepayers can save themselves a good many dollars by voting for the High School Extension question next month. As a matter of economy and good business, the question should carry with an over- whelming majority. The final session of the Durham Town Council was held last night 'with only routine business done. Durham this year has had a good Council. Anyway, they worked together, and in harmony, for the best interests of the town as they saw it. They may have made mistakes, but who doesn’t? Durham ratepayers should not take anybody’s “sayso” on the High school question. Investigate the matter before you cast your ballot and, no matter which way you vote, vote intelligently. A “stam- pede” vote makes a majority, all right, and carries the day, but a vote without intelligent thought behind it is wasted, even if it does happen to be cast on the p0pular side. Facts are facts. Get them before voting on the High school question at the January elections. There will no doubt be a lot of rumors circulated before voting day. Petty differences of opinion should not be considered by the electors, who should insist on knowing the facts before marking their ballot. Rate- payers should not fail to attend the public meet- ing in the town hall next Monday night, when both A vote against the High School Extension ques- tion means a refusal on the part of Durham citizens to conform to the regulations of the Ontario Depart- ment of Education; a vote against the question means that the Government school grants will be lowered or cut off altogether; a vote against the question means that, with the Government grant cut off or reduced, the ratepayers of Durham will have to finance theé'whole school without outside assistance of any kind. Vote FOR the bylaw, and thereby keep vour school up to Government standard, and your dollars; in your pocket! Some of Durham’s merchants have passed through the Christmas season without advertising. No doubt they will be among those who, after the big buying festival is oVer, will declare that business is “rotten.” In these days of modern business, when printers’ ink is regarded as the most valuable ally of good business, the manner in which some of those doing business with the public steer clear of it, is simply marvellous. It reminds us of the old, old story of the boy throwing kisses at his girl in the dark. He may know what he is doing, but the girl knows absolutely nothing about it. Modern buyers read the advertisements.
