The County. ,ommittee with the County Road Su-~ dent went. into the estimates:very r, and found that the amount of iamed would be required this, year. Iget was adopted without disc'ussion.' inly right to point out for the bene- he average taxpayers, that of the , the provincial goyernment will pay 50,000 as a subsidy of 50 per. cent truction, maintenance, purchase of ýry, superintendence and office assist-o that the burden is somnewhit light- )rii the other hand it- should 'not be ýn thýat the government is collecting nually from th9. county for provin-. 1construction. Vie mention, this fact rto show that there can be very* p e of lighter taxes -in the coanty -so these large annual outlays'for good e made frorn year to year ime is most opportune, we believe, iask the Provincial Government to ith the municipalities the, revenue 1from gasoline taxes and aitomobile If this could be done the heavy of. taxation for roads an~d bridges tion and maintenance in the i uni- swould be considerably Iightened, taxpayers miade more happy and ýd. There .does not seem. to be any son why the government, ,which.,col- the revenues from gas sales and au- Slicvnces,. to say nothing of the ds of dollars in fines,. should not be. to share Up. THE 0 F MEASURES. s8fl eli Vred b>. a Whitby pasiÃ"r- ly evéiing, based on the scriptuïral. on that whatever, a man measures is fellow men it will be measured out; again, was most timelSýr, -and .'ýone ýhould be given an attentive ear in odern days, particularly inthe world ess. measure you deal out to others will ck to 'you," ivag the, theme' of the 4-à message almost equivalent to i itained in th.e Golden Rule-and- oùe [ah that it might be applied by all1 ôectrine of sowing and reapin g is as-I e today as it was -two, thousand ro. Measure out kindly charity,-tol- patience, better understanding and community spirit, andlo, thesé re- aw of measures -is, as the Whitby ioteci, certain and inevitable, and we yr believe that were it ever'borne right in this community there 'would ýce such a transformation as woulId 'hitby an even better town than it ini which to live. ERkMEN'S COMPENSATION year the Workrnen's Compensation warded $8,120,157.78 of which $1,- 62 was for .medical aid. The total- in 1928 was $7,067,943.93 wit~h $1,-ý 54 for nedical, aid. -This shows a, créase in 1929 but when speaking' at Convention of the Industrial Acci- vention Associations at Windsor, V. lat K.G., Chairman of Workmen',s sation Board, pinted out that there àan increase of fourteen per cent yroll in the former year and an in- )f eleven per cent in payflent for. ;atioTi. -If the year 1929 showed. the tio, it is reasonable to assume that: prevention work is showing some cember, 1929, the Board awarded .09 and receiveti reports on 6,288 Dta1 nmber of accidents reporteti by ,i Ontarioto the:Workmen's Com-- n Board i 1929 was 87,103 which ý,510 fatalities. There-were 79,398 lu 4928 including 553 fatalities, so that there is a.,slight iniprovement in tMs latter respect. * Statistica compiled- by the Industrial Acci- dent Prevention Associations, covering, the larger 'firms in thenenibership, indicate' a. general reduction in accident :frequency, and those Jitrsedh ccdn revention cdaim that accident frequency iss ue ud-ta severity. asrrgieta THE COU11MY PENSIONS'BOARD The County Council will at its adjourned session next week-. appoint.n-men to act as mniembers of. the'Old Age Pensions Bloard for the County. Menon -such a: Board oeccupy veryj responsible positions and their selection shoulti be undertaken with the greatest care. . It would in our opinion be praferable to- have men of experience, of,'broad sympathy and of business abiity,* and. the Couricil in making the appointments has plenty of ma- terial from whichtochoose. There are many men in the County todayr who would be'glad to- act on such-a -Board-m-ien who are ini accord' with thè Act and Wish to see that eeylast eligible pensioner receives consid,- -eration. ~The a0! s ecppointments need not necessarily, be, matie' from the Council Board, although it is understood that the administrators of the Act at Toronto. have voicet their' préference for' these, but~ the Board there are men 'Who in -the pagr ave -gven. much_ care and-' time to the work, for little: or no- remunera- tion, -ard Who can safely"be trusted to carry, on. effectively and wel. NO' oM'ore, important appointments corne- within the scope of the County. Council. THOSE WHO, PUBLICLY. SERVE* There. occurred ýatý Ganianoque the other day an ev%,eni that was mo re- unusual than it should be. Under the auspices of the- Can- adian Club in that town, a complirnentary banquet was tendered the-retiring members of the tqwe - council, the: frard of éducation, and, the waterworks -commission.. Their. health -was toasted and speakers referred t'o the. good, work these men had . done for the town in giving their services freely to it. - Asthe Gananoque Reporter says, these com-. <pliments were the only payment these men receiveti for the time they had i gven, and the- trouble they had -taken for the. good of the, community.- But, in too. many towns the mený who freely give their: service receive no_ such comnplimentsi. Instead they. are publicly "hauled over the coals" by theircritics, and once'out of office resolve neyer again to un-k dertake s50 thanikless -a job.' The -Gananoque. idea of giving:those who serveý in municipal if e some evidence of the appreciation their unpaid services justly en- title them. to is a goodone and shoulti have the effect of- making itý easier to get the right men tio accept.office.
