The Georgian Bay system had a great. opportunity as up here there were 2.2 rural persons for every urban one, while. in the rest of Ontario there were 1.8 ur- ban people. to every one rural. He illustrated the farm market. for pu\\'t'l‘ by quoting from Norwich. a village in Uxt‘oul County which today sold 500 horse power. Rural lines were put. out Owen Sound to .-\llenforcl and to near Hepworth. .\lr. Purcell said that. a farmer was a better user of power than the ur- ban dweller.

He said the record of ac- rident in the Georgian Bay system was very good. Eugenia had only one accident last vear when a man got a leg broken. He urged com- missions.
