The in- formation we have had passed over to us did not come from any of the frat- ernity. but we have every reason to believe that it is true. and if so, the proposed legislation cannot come too first. insertion, and {Sat each subsequent insernon. v'â€"_ We have just been told that the drivers of the busses that run throngs“: Durham cover roughly 317 miles a day for six days a week.

Those of our readers who are in the habit of giving dances, that is. public ones. or who have prominent positions in societies that do. will be well ad- '.'i:~:ed to see that they are thoroughly policed. as the individual or society under whose auspices a dance is given responsible for the orderliness of the hall. Many are of the opinion that in' the event of an intoxicated person wandering intc a place of this des- cription that the provincial police would look after the culprit. but this is not so. The provincial police have nothing to dc with the policing of such premises with the exception that they are required to act when called upon. The safest way would be in the event of a dance or any like public gathering to have the offender eject- ed. as if he is found in the building the police will hold the party or parties in charge responsible. We have no thought as this is writ- ten that there has been any trouble of 1:th nature in any dances that have been put on in Durham, but in case Whosoever is afraid of submit- ting am; question. civil or religious, to the test of free discussion. is more in love with his Own opimrm than with the truthâ€"WATSON. the busses 01 gether. the D protection '31 100 percent week driving far as Guelph and then back to Owen Sound for the night. arriving about 9 o'clock.

HIS IS the urge to improveâ€"to seek and to find something always betterâ€"which has been the definite policy of the telephone business since the first crude instrument re- produced the voice of its inventor fifty-odd years ago. By no other policy could the telephone have ~l<ept pace with this country or contributed to 1ts progress as it has done in reducing Canada’s Wide distances and differences of geography. And by no other policy can the telephone now meet the responsibility of serving Canada’s future. HIS MAN is putting up telephone poles. Early in the morning he is out making a way for the wire that is to come. At night when the gang gets back to camp he is tired. But he likes it. There is zest in the work he is doing, for he is in new country. There have never been telephones here before. He is blazing the trial. After him will come families and homes and stores and factories to make another city. Over the wires on the poles he plants there will be voices and laughter, business will hum, all the world will draw closer. He works witn magic. The wire transforms time and distance. Today you can lift the telephone at your elbow and within seven min- utes hear the voice of your friend in England say: “Are you there?” HIS MAGIC in the telephone has not . come in a day. It has come with year after year of experiment and improvement. The telephone of today is no more like the first telephone than a machine gun is like a bow-and-arrow. 'And' the telephone of tomorrow will surpass the telephone of today. Tomorrow perhaps, this telephone at your elbow will bring you the face of the person you talk with, will hold new magic we now do not dream of. ‘LJ years of unprecedente‘d growth and prog- perity. _All the signsand barometers of busi- ness point to it. Pill the shrewdest prophets of business predict it. The signs and the prophets are so sure, and the future is so unmistakable, that within the next five years more money will be needed for extension of the telephone system in Ontario and Quebec than was spent by the business in all its first forty years. "WEE MAN pushing poles and wire into ‘ .I. new country and the Toresight which now is planning over one hundred million dollars of new plant to meet the needs of the next five years come from the same policy and the same paw to give Canadian§ facilities of cpmmunication worthy of $6:- country and its future. - ' 7“ ANADAjS FUTURE is at lc_ast twenty Mr. W.
