Dated at Dundalk this 6th day of April, A.D,, 1938. !. B. Lucas & Co., Dundalk, Ontario, Solicitors for the Administrator. 3c and study lo the matter. Mr. Lapointe thought the matter was of such vital inipurtan t that it should be further discussed and investigated before ac- tion was taken. Personally, it would seem that this is the psychological moment to act. The great majority of the House will favor it. It was introdueed by a Conservative, one above reproach, and the government is undoubtedly sympathetic. Even Mr. Bennett assisted all speakers though up to the present he hasn't made a speech on it. Such a happy combina- tion of circumstances might not occur again in many a long day. Criticised Unemployment Policy The complacency of the government, with its majority of one hundred or over, has been effective armor against all attack in the last two and a half years.. But this week the Hon. H. H. Stevens pierced that armor and ar- oused interest and something like hope in all opposition ranks, when he most elfectively criticised the government's unemployment policy. His thrusts brought Norman McLeod Rogers to his feet again and again. From the point of view of political effective- j ness the Stevens' speech was easily I the best made this session. It was a week of much good speak- ing, The Hon. (Chubby) Power is always lucid in a presentation of any subject, however complex. He was particularly so when introducing a Bill which deals with the publication of receipts and expenditures and the limitation of amounts to be spent in election campaigns. The Bill is a lengthy one but, in the main, is de- signed to eliminate corrupt practices during elections. By it the sources and distribution of all election funds will be supervised and publicly reveal- ed. Mr. Power said that our present democratic system is built on confid- ence and that if confidence is de- stroyed our institutions are impaired. "A greater threat by far to democracy than the 'isms' which now infest our body politic is a belief that electoral manipulation, electoral manoeuvering, is undermining the very basis of dem- ocracy. There is going on at the present time a struggle between total- itarianism and democracy. It has its reflections in this country and it de- velves upon us who believe in our present system of government to en- deavour to cure thv, ills that are in- herent in it.'* He dealt at length with the pressure that is put upon candidates at elec- tion to contrfbute to carnivals, church festivals, building funds, fairs, and said "The politician's extremity is the puri.st's opportunity.'' But the week wasn't all work, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Bailey (my sister Lil- ly) and their twin daughters, Jean and Lena visited me. In a couple of days we crowded in sight-seeing en- taining, meeting parliamentary peo- ple, listening to debates, shopping and oim .iliiiw (Deanna Durbin). The liked swimming in a luxurious pool at the Chateau Laurier a lot better than they did the debates. But their schoolteacher aunt saw that they ac- quired some knowledge of the set-up of government. A regular rash of entertainment broke out just previous to the Easter recess. But my heavy schedule per- mitted me to attend only a luncheon given by Senator George P. and Mrs. Graham, for the Victorian Order of Nurses, in the ballroom of the Chat- eau, a reception at Manor House, the home of Senator Cairine Wilson, for the V.O.N., and a luncheon in the Parliamentary restaurant with Mrs. Hector McKinncn hostess â€"wife of our own Hector, one of the best brains in the Service. -AGNES 0.

At this season of the year when streets and highways are filled with water holes and mud puddles motor- ists should keep in mind that splash- ing pedestrians is an offence for which they can be charged with reck- less driving.

The marriage of Miss Lenore Reer, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Luther Reer, Colling- wood, to Mr. Percy Sanderson, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Sander- son, was also solemnized. We join in wishing the young couples a long and prosperous journey over the sea of matrimony. The bereaved families of the late Mr. Graham and also the late Mrs. D. McTavish have the sincere symp- athy of a host of friends in their great loss. Mr. Jack Graham attended the fun- eral of his great uncle, the late Mr. J. I. Graham, of Vandeleur. Mr. Wm. Semple is not enjoying good health at present. Mrs. Wm. Semple spent a day with her sister, Mrs. Russell Allison, at Markdale. Mrs. Allison is much im- proved from her winter illness. CENTRE LINE.

Live Stock Report (By Dunn & Levack, Toronto) Monday's cattle market was slow and lower, due to the fact that ex- port demand was lacking and also local packers seemed to be pretty well supplied. A few top weighty steers made from 6.60 to 6.76; fair to good from 5.76 to 6.26. In the butcher section trading was slow and fully a quarter lower, top sales being made at from 6.00 to 6.26, while cat- tle of fair to good quality ranged from 5.50 to 5.90; common to med- ium 4.75 to 5.25. Choice baby beeves held steady at from 6.75 to 7.50; fair to good from 5.75 to 6.50. Stockers and feeders were in good demand, best kind from 4.50 to 5.00,, The cow trade held about steady, choice from 4.50 to 6.00; fair to good from 4.00 to 4.60; common to medium 3.00 to 3.75; canners and cutters 2.26 to 2.75. Choice butcher bulls brought from 4.60 to 4.75; choice heavy bulls 4.00 to 4.35; heavy bologna bulla 3.76 to 4.00; light bulls 3.50 to 3.65.
