Editor IRELAND REVIVED Maturally enough, very many of us in this part of the Dominion have been interested in the recent so-called "outbreaks" of the populace o n the borders of the two divisions of Ire- land. The trouble, however, was hut a flush in the pan compared with the vendettas that so often, in pre-war clays, resulted in loss of life and pho- longed difo peace among folHs t.hat should have been good neighbors. And now we will probably hear no more of these "outbreaks" till excuse for a fight is seized in the next year celebration* in the months of July ami August. Meanwhile, lovers of the Green Isle must lind satisfaction in the progress and prosperity of both divisions of the country. Northern Ireland seem* to be entirely satisfied with its Brit- iesh Dominion form of government, and close co-operation with the Moth- erland, and has steadily adhered to populace as a whole. On this gigant- ic enterprise, the Government have .xpended over forty million dollars. N'o one in the island need be without the benefit of light, heat and power it a reasonable price. It is expected that outside industrialists will see the advantages of these new conditions *nd establish labor-employing estab- lishments that will be of great ad- vantage to the populace. Already, Henry Ford is on the ground, with a big plant, near Cork and beet sugar works on a large scale have been set going at Carlow. With such evidence of ability to govern, it has not been difficult for the Free State leaders to establish their claim to have their country recognized as a self-governing unit of the British Commonwealth, with a seat on the Council of the League of Nations and the right to appoint Ministers Plenipotentiary. Here's hoping that North and South of the Ould Land will continue to grow in beauty and prosperity, side by side. AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT The government is about to enter upon road construe lion in northern Ontario with the intention of com- pleting the link which, in time, will form a national transcontinental arto- mobile highway from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Thi-s is an unemploy- ment relief scheme. We notice that the Ontario Govern- ment has announced that no intoxi- cating liquor will be allowed in the construction camps. This is a laud- able and proper decision. At the her determination to "hoe her own j same time it is n distinct acknowledtr- row." On the other hand, the Irish , mc nt that liquor in a construction Fr. Stai,. has liad good reason for camp makes for inefficiency and los:; rejoicing in her progress ns an inde- : f valuable energy. Of course they pendent nation of the Empire. n wish to get the In-st possible service wonderful sequel to the division, de- j f rom their workment, and liquor Is Ktruotion of life and property, and one of the barnacles which retard the hatred of the conditions that prevailed but a few years ago. The moderate Cosgrave government, resisting all the effort* of the extremists, has really cffi-i-ted marvellous nchievr- mrnts. They disarmed the police and reduced the standing army of 50,000 progress of the construction ship. But what about private contractors for public works whom the liquor law docs not protect in this reipe.-t? And again, if it makes for inefficiency on pi'blk 1 works it also has the samp effect on private enterprises, yet the to 5,000. and their triwt of the people 'Ontario Government will p; 11 an> has not been in vain, for we learn tjuantity of linuor to private workmen that there is less serious crime in the State than in any other European country they rebuilt the public high- ways and reconstructed the maney bridges destroyed in the civil war of the early years of the century. There has followed, of course, the era of the auto, with oil that speedy and -heap locomotion implies. They have sponsored a I ark-to-tho-farm move- ment, and have fostered rural indus- try, which is none too "prosperous," the Irish farmers suffering from low prices for their prr.'.lucts an well as other agriculturists have recently been doing. The most spectacular part of tho Irijh State Government program, however, ha-- l;pen the har- of the Shannon River ta electricity for the whole :io long a their regulations are ob- served. The cause of inefficiency should be banished from public works on down thp scale. Better to cease the .sale altogether!

Evon with the cancellatioin of per- mits, both driving and liquor, it does not pay for the damage caused. The place to stop like accidents u to take away the fountain had before damage is caused. They tell us Premier Rarmay Mac- donald, repudiated by his former Labor friends, will become a Lord. Perhaps he may live to give the old chaps in the Chamber of Privilege, a good shaking up, too. Shall we ww say "All hail Lord LossiemouthT" Reports are current that unemploy- ed men are refusing work on farms. Is it that initiative is being taken from men by the contemplated gov- ernment assistance? If any man re- fuses to work on a farm or at any ather form of employment he should be a marked person to whom assist- ance should not be granted. . -M iJ Tile British people pay the highest income of any nation in the world. The tax will be higher, still, before the new government gets through with the tax bill of the country. There would be some improvement if every nation, helped by the Motherland to finance their needs in the Great \Var, were as scrupulous in meeting its obligations as is John Bull. * The Canadian nig is living high these days. Farmers rind cereal prires HO low that they are giving the porkers their choice of corn, oats, bai'lcy or wheat. And they tell us that a pig fed mheat, costing seventy cents n bushel, pays his owner well. But really, it is no new thing for good farmers, in these parts, to feed their cereal crops to th? live stock, Ven when prices are much higher than now, and find it to their advantage. This type of farmer almost invar- iably keeps his land well fed, as well as his live stock. And it is rare that he is a groucher. ing its mileage. A flat service charge not to exceed $30 a year was made possible to the i'armer through Government assistance in hydro dev- elopment, without which a prohibitive charge of $100 a year at least would have to be made. SHOl'LI) TEACHERS LIVE IN THE SECTION? (Toronto Daily Star) In some rural sections the trustees ar e insisting that the teachers must live there that the teacher, having a motor car, must not reside elsewhere and drive to and from school daily and disappear over the week end. It will not be easy in some cases to ?et teachers to conform to this rule, who will be willing to "sleep in" and live on the premises in this way. It used to be considered a matter of course that the teacher would reside in the schol section and "board" at a house indicated by the trustees. In these days, however, the teacher uo- ually has a car and can scoot 10 miles in almot no time. He or she can live in a city or a large town and be at <>chool at !) every morning and, if this can be done, it will not be easy to talk a teacher out of doing it. With roads so good distance does not count m'ch. With motor cars and smooth roads the conditions which exist in other days cannot be retained. The trus- tees of a school may refuse to engage any teacher who will not move in and stay in the section and if they can get a teacher on those terms well and ?ood. But if they secured n teacher a member of a family living in the section they would find that he or she, if possessed of a car, would be inside the school section very little- except during school hours. The teacher and the car would spin out ot the section When school closed over the week e^ds. The days of the past cannot be call- ed back again. In other days the school teacher was an important per- son in the rural school section, a social leader out in ifront in all local activit- ies. No doubt a teacher who comes and goes on wheels fails to do for a neighborhood what a teacher formerly did. But on the other hand, the people of the neighborhood are not shut in with themselves ns they used to be. They, too, move on rubber tires and get everywhere. Town Flower Beds The Kincardine News calls attent- ion to the corporation flower beds in that town and tells of the favorable comment they caused from the tour- ists and summer visitors. The cost was eighty dollars. The News says that already the town has received many times that amount in favorable comment and advertising, and says: "It is the bright spots such as this that attract visitors and the J'a.-t that the council is beginning to take K>me interest in the tourist trade is to their credit." The motor cars have annihilated distance even more effectively than the iron horse. One never knows from where visitors may come who may invade his own home over the .veck-end. A town is in much the same predicament. There is no town but which has some eyesores that a few Dents' worth of flowers would turn into beauty spots, and instead of c. feeling of nausea they give a passing tourrst a pleasure he will not soon forget. Durham Chronicle. Schools Opened High school opened on Tuesday with Principal Stewart Thibaudeau in charge.. Two new teachers have joined the staff, these .Mrs. Archie Filshie and 'Miss Clara Gray of To- ronto. There is about the same reg- istration in the school as last year, with more stoudents to enter shortly. Principal Ira Merriam in the senior room of the public school and Mrs. C. J. Bellamy in the junior room also commenced work on Tuesday. MANAGER OF ALLISTON BANK George Armstrong, who spent r. number of years on the inspection staff of the Bank of Toronto, is now- manager of the Alliston branch cl 1 '.hat banking institution. Dundalk citi- zens are mighty pleased to hear of George's appointment to this re?pons- ible position. George's banking car- eer began in the local branch of the Bank of Hamilton, later the Canadian Bank of Commerce. Previous to his appointment he had been on the in- spection staff of the Bank of Toronto for three years. Congratulations to you, George! Dundalk Herald. Premier Henry Speaks "You muRJ put yorr hands to the plow and solve bhis problem for your- '.elves, by raising greater crops and finer live stock .weh as will command the markets of the world," was the advice given to people of rural On- tario by Premier Henry in his opening xldress at the Central Canada Exhi- bition, Ottawa. He urged them to !ie patient with their municipal rep- rftrentntivcn at this time in regund to ' I KM! i " taxation caused bv im- prnved educational facilities and n"^d roads expenditure. Speaking of rur- il hydro expansion, the Premier stat- i'd that this year the Hydro Commis- sion woud construct an additional 2,000 miles of rural pewcr line, doul>- Armistice Day Apart Thanksgiving Day this year will likely he wholly distinct from Arm- istice Day. As formerly, the govern- ment will fix a day ar.d issue a pro- clamation calling for its observance. The change is due to the act of parliament introduced by A. W. Neill, M. P., who was always insistent that Armistice Dy should b observe^ on November 11, quite apart from Thanksgiving. In late years by law the latter festival has been on the Monday of the week in which No- vember 11 occurred and commonly they were merged. I/he n ew act calls November llth "Remembrance Day" and provides for its observance on that date whatever may be the day of the week. It makes no mention of Thanksgiving. The government "ould fix the latter dote for same date is Remembrance Day but tlhis is un- likely. The -sense of parliament was that they should be distinct and Oc- tober was favoured for Thanksgiving. VISITED OLD HOME Mr. and Mrs. Jas. T. Keefer 01 Kansas City, Mo., were in town the first of the week, renewing acquaint- ances of early boyhood days. Mr. Keefer is a cousin of Postmaster \V. W. Trimble and Mr. and Mrs. C. N. Richardson. They have been on a motor trip for the past three weeks, taking in all the scenery in Eastern Canada, and left Tusday morning for their home. RETURNIMG TO CANADA A letter received i'roni Dr. Alex. Turr.hull informs us that he is leav- ing London, England, this week for Canada. We will be pleased to sec Or. Turnbull when he vi iits us again after nis absence o' five years on government work in the Old Country with the Department of 'Health. Caught Big Lake Trout The troubles of fishing has its com- pensations, as witness the big catch made by Councillor Barney Welton ol town at Meaford last week. This salmon trout was 33 inches long, 19 inches in girth and weighed an even 15 Ms pounds, official Meaford scales. This fine fish was the third largest caught at Meaford Uus year, the one leading the race at present going 22 pounds. It is the duty of the issuer of a checque to affix the stamp. People who issue only a few chacques each year usually forget to put on the stamp and the receiver has to pay his tax when he cashes the cheque This is not fair, everyone should pay the tax on the checque he issues It is annoying and expensive to the receiver if he has to pay, and it is surprising what it would amount to in the course of a year. Bear yom share of the tax. So ninny fliers are taking the Arctic route thu season, we trust the natives iro nwake to taeir opportunities and have opened a chuin of Eskimo pie Ontario is by far the largest pro- ducer of tobacco among the provinces of Canada, having contributed 28,- 600,000 pounds or a grand total of 36,700,000 pounds for all Canada last year. In all, 32,805 acres were de- voted to tobacco raising in Ontario last year. The harvest of tomatoes and corn for canning purposes is in full swing and most districts report the pro- spect of very good crops. Several counties declare the corn crop the best in years. In a few districts tomatoes have been severely injured 1 y the tomato worm. DANCE AT PROTON STATION A dance will be held in the Orange Hall, Proton Station on Friday, Sept. 4th.
