As this paper has said before, we would like to sm- paved streets all over Durham.

It was an easy and [’ierfectly le- gitimate loophole for the county to slip through. was this thing of the Provinre taking over this piece of eonnerting link, but it is not very likely that the resolution would have met with any more favor had last year's conditions obtained. The rural members of the County Coun- 1‘” are to a unit against any paving being done in urban municipalities ut Um expense of the County and we can’t say that we blame them very much. Pavements come high, and while the time may not be far 011' when pavements through towns will he quit.- the thing, that time has not yet arrived. Taxes are high enough now. and the rural residents of the county no doubt feel that they are doing well when they emerge from W " " l'nfortunately, the former county highway through the town, at least as far 3* Hararraxa street. is now undo-r Hu- control of the Provincial Department of Highways, and na- turally the County (lounvil sat on the proposition hard and refused to do anything in the matter.

If they are a necessny in any town, then that “town should build them. iThis of course is only our own pri- avte opinion; we are not attempt- ing to force anyone to think differ- ently. While we are fully in sym- pathy with the building of improved highways through the' country, and have little sympathy with those who apparently wish to keep the money and let the roads go hang, the matter of pavements for the smaller places is as yet a debatable ,question and one that should he approached with caution. It is either a matter for handling by the muniripalities interested. or one. for the Provincial (flovernment to deal with. By no stretch of the imagin- ation can we see where counties should have to furnish paved roads for urban municipalities, at least until there is more money in the country than there is at present. We .would like to give Reeve Bell credit, however, for trying to get us the pavement, and no doubt it would have been a feather in his cap had he succeeded: but on the other hand we don’t fault the hard- fisted old farmer members of the rCounty Council when they refuse to be a‘ party to paving streets of Hanover, Durham’ and other towns and villages in the county. Anyone who. does fault them should ramble round a water-soaked manure pile with them in the fall and spring as? they try to pick their way in to the stable to feed the stock, or bounce with them over some of the back roads in the county when they choose to come to town to do their shopping. Personally, we would like to see Durham have everything that any other town hasâ€"fine Opera house, pqements, waterworks, street cleaning department and a four- or five-man police departmentâ€"hut who is going to pray for it? er towns of Ontario, especially where a good gravel road is easily obtainable.

Mayor, and the peeple in Durham had known the situation of his wife and three little children, who are stopping with her father and are keeping the children and are badly in need as he is not support- ing them. they would bsolutely re- .fuse to donate to hi and pay his fine; a young man who is keeping no one but himself and sporting around and letting his family want. I can rest assured there are other families in Durham more en~ titled to a collection than Mr. Kelly, and he should show his apprecia- tion to Mr. La'idlaw. who is letting him off so easy and is not making him support his family.

For Durham, Buschlen and Wilson were the otl’onders, both going off for minor infractions. Just what the outcome will be to- morrow night We will not attempt to predict, but as the locals play bet- ter away from home. there. is a pos- sibility that they may yet bring home the district bacon.

Referee Earl Hicks of Owen Sound was in charge and while there can not be. much said agatnst his work, it is unfortunate that the second Listowel counter in the second per- iod was offside by feet. It was a hard game to lose, and while outscored, the Durham team had just as much of the puck as the Listowel fellows but could not work in close enough to tally. At that they tallied the nicest counter of the game in the final frame when Mc- Girr and Elvidge got through the Listowel defence to beat Johnston, who all night played a wonderful game and stepped more shots than McDonald, in the nets for the locals.
