Many of the electorate in Norâ€" manby Bentinck, Sullivan and Hanoâ€" ver maintain that for Convention purâ€" poses they would prefer being assocâ€" iated with the North Grey Riding. As a matter of fact Sullivan is in the North Riding for Provincial purposes. It is proposed to have the electoral districts made East and West when the Redistribution Bill comes up at the next session of Dominion Parliaâ€" ment. This is how the two Ridings would be composed under the proâ€" posed change : MAY CHANGE GREY RIDINGS Thursday, October 11, 1923 East Grey West Grey 27901 31150 2610 12190 362 2781 342 422 2807 2433 2430 2505 1743 2213 2205 2882 2240 2650 820 1494 6753 422 882 3038 2504 2356 1554 2401 THE DURHAM REVIEW At the time Canada might have met the enormous demands of the war by borrowing from New York, but the wisdom, as well as the patriotism, in resisting the temptation and instead placing the burden immediately upon the shoulders of her own people is While we realize that the people of Canada would not regard exaggerated flattery in the light of a compliment, we believe we remain in the confines of, the simple truth when we remark that no nation in history hag met the financial demands of war with greater good spirit end carried the financial burdens with greater intelligence than the vast Dominion which tops the North American continent. Ten years ago Canada‘s debt was less $350,000, 000. On Jan. 1st, 1923 it was $2,516, 929,000â€"over two billion dollars adâ€" ded by the war. Were it not for the fact that the bulk of ths colossal debt is owed within the Dominionâ€"Canadâ€" ians themselves owning bonds to the extent of $1,969,995,000â€"the interest payments would doubtless drain the country dry reduce the exchange valâ€" ue of the Canadian dollar to a ruinâ€" ous figure and plunge Canadian fin 4 ance and business into a chaotic conâ€" dition. _ As it is the semi annual in terest payments go into hundreds o! thousands of Canadian homes and provide money for the payment of the Federal taxes from which the interest payments are drawn. ‘ CANADA AS THE STATES SEE HER But, perhaps after all, the clowns are not getting so much out of life as woul appear. Wealth is a great thing when joined with wisdom, and there is no evidence that clowns are a hapâ€" py lot. They cannot and do not posâ€" sess that solid self respect which modâ€" erate wealth and a wellâ€"spent life brings and which is essential to enâ€" during happiness. By Bert E. Collyer in his newspaper "The Referee." Only n recent years has this been possibleâ€"since the crowd began to make considerable money and to spend it. Easy and quick means of travel facilitates the gathering of great crowds. One can now travel comfortably in an hour, a distance which a few years ago constituted a laborious journey. So men cross a continent to witness a prize fight : young folk can go 25 miles in an evâ€" ening to a dance, and great halls are crowded to hear a Harry Lauder or see a Chaplin. The more successful movie stars of which Charlie Chaplin is an example, are but clowns : and although Sir Harry Lauder belongs to a highor type, it was for his power to entertain and amuse that he got his princely fortune and indirectly, his title. Next to business men of the highest rank, who, besides possessing rare ability, have been favored by fortune, the clowns of toâ€"day are receiving the biggest financial rewards. _ The man who supplies the world with trifing amusement is showered with gold and may live in a palace : the man who supplies bread and clothing sets a reâ€" spectable living : the man who gives the highest wisdom is allowed to starve. History does not record that a clown ever was killed for his nonsense, but many a man, now reâ€" garded as having been the wisest of hs time was crucified or burned at the stake. But this is just a striking instance of how much the public is wilting to pay for light amusement. Recently much nas beea «aid about the New York man who has become independently rich, receiving a royâ€" alty of over $60,000, by the wriiing of the silly song, the refrain of which is "Yes, we have no bananas toâ€"day." In his speeches he gives unstinted praise to Canada for the part she took and the praise is sincere. He has had extraordinary receptions and if he was not made of stern stuff, his head would be turned. His wife and daughter accompanies him. All Canadians have their eyes turnâ€" ed on one of Britain‘s greatest statesâ€" men this week, David Lloyd George, who is making a speaking tour to a few Canadian cities and a larger numâ€" ber in the United States, Hig speechâ€" es reported in the daily press show virility, that reminds one of the time when he guided the Empire and the Allies to victory during the war. It is now universally conceded that Britâ€" ain‘s line up in that struggle, was due to this man‘s energy, foresight and skill in dealing with men and instituâ€" tions. BIG MONEY "OR NONSENSE LLOYD GEORGE The annual school fair for the Township of Bentinck was held at Lamlash, Thursday, Oct. 4th.

Within a few weeks $172,000,000 of Dominion Government bonds will fall due. With the same spirit and intelligence the Governâ€" ment is again coâ€"operating with bankers and brokers to keep the debt in Canada.
