Biggs, Minister of Public Works, at the eighteenth annual meetâ€" ing of the Ontario Good Roads . Assoâ€" ciation which opened in the _ York (‘ounty Buildings on Wednesday. The Waterloo County @ouncil was well represented. the members of _ the Roads and Bridges Committee being in attendance, and County Clerk Cas sel, who was present at the sessions of the County Road Superintendents and Engineers, informed _ the _ Teleâ€" garph this morning that the delegates were highly elated with the prospects of this county being a centre in _ the proposed scheme. In addition to the County Clerk the County Council was represented by Warden DeBus, Counâ€" cillors J. Keidel, S. Lantz, J. Y. Little, sol. Koch, and Road Superintendent Lichts ' The Minister of Public Works _ anâ€" nounced that a system â€" including I L.824.7 miles had been designated . by The acute shortage of _ labor, _ the Minister said, _ necessitated _ quick transportation. Good roads would help the farmer to produce _ more, if that were possible, and would go a long way to relieve the unrest which wirhout a doubt _ was widespread throughout the rural districts. ‘ New Policy Needed. Traffic, he said, had changed greatâ€" Iv since tm days whem the first good the Department in the _ trunk road scheme, and among the highways . to be constructed are the road from Hamâ€" ilton to Kitchener, a distance _ of 32 miles, and another from â€" Stratford to Brantford through this city, a distance f 77 miles. The Waterloo Roads and Bridges Committee will secure all the information possible _ in â€" connection with the scheme and it will be discussâ€" ed at a special meeting to be called early next week. The speaker warned the good roads delegates that they would _ have _ to watch closely after the maintenance of the roads in their districts if _ they wanted to get the _ Provincial grant road policy _ was . formulated. We must wake up and formulate a â€" new policy. a twentieth â€" century policy. which will build up the roads in a modern way. The allocations of monâ€" ey for road purposes must be distributâ€" ed in such a way that all _ municipal hodies will be able to make a fair reâ€" iurn in their investment," the Minisâ€" ter said amid applause. "I contend that we must build roads not with a view to the tourist traffic, but rather we must build roads to devâ€" clop our agricultural industry. 1 conâ€" tend that the farmers‘ necessities in the way of good roads are most imporâ€" tant. . If this is done it will help both rural communities and urban commun ities, for what will help one will help the o*her." A limited system of special roads would not be profitable or popular, Mr. Biggs said. A comprehensive system of gond roads was the only _ solution that he knew for the problem. "We don‘t want any road to go down in standard from what it is toâ€"day," he said _ "If you have a good road, keep it a goed road and don‘t let it back up one bit." Brigadierâ€"General _C. H. _ Mitchell, Dean of the Faculty of _ Applied Science and Engineeting of the _ Untâ€" versity of Tovonto charscter‘zed â€" the goorl o iomed phleas of Hoo. Mc Higr® as ui of the m.st progressive schemes The Minister of Public Works _ inâ€" formed the large crowd of delegates hbow and where the _ new Provincial system of good roads would be _ built. For the first time Hon. Mr. Biggs anâ€" nounced the termini of the _ 22. new vowds which, together with the 422 nmiiles of improved roads now built, are o make un the Provincial highways systeni. He explained that in selectâ€" ing routes for the new roads the needs if industry had been considered rather than the requirements of tourists. Hon. Mr. Biggs was given a tremenâ€" dous ovation, both when he rose _ to speak and when he finished. _ ‘"This year." he said, "I am placed in a uniâ€" iite position. For the last four years 1 hive attended these conventions as a delegate. A year ago, when 1 was here, I had a little idea that at . the next convention I would be addressing you as a Minister of the Crown." "It is my desire," Mr. Biggs said, "to odminister my department in a fear less way. . As far as‘T am concerned, 1 will build the roads of this Province irres pective of any party _ consideraâ€" tions. (Applause.) Now that we are called upon for further good roads legâ€" islation, I hope you will give us â€" your fullest coâ€"operation." The New Roads.

"You may depend upâ€" on it that, when required, the technicâ€" al help will be there to carry out the programme." . _ In his opening remarks, President K. W. McKay of St. Thomas suggestâ€" ed that the township through which a Provincial highway passed should be made to pay prupofl.loll of the co'.tA‘ The township could _ collect this through taxin, the increased value of the ‘ind along the Provincial road.

Then the appetite beâ€" comes fickle, digestion becomes feeâ€" ble, and the blood becomes impover ished. So the general health suffers; langour, nervous troubles and often sleeplessness folloyws. It is well to remember that the whole system reâ€" es upon good blood and that good blood is impossible unless the digesâ€" tion is good. Indigestion meaus locs as well as suffering to many people. Loss of strength, loss of time and loss of monâ€" London, March 3.â€"â€"The disposition of the Turkish navy was dofinitely setâ€" tled by the Allied Supreme Council today when it decided that the Peace Treaty should provide that warships be broken up. The Turkish army will be reduced to such a point that it would be effective against another country. The stomauch cannot do its work anless the blood is made rich and red, and so new blood alone can cure indigestion. lt is for this reason that a remedy like Dr. Williaims Pink Pills which makes new, rich blood. cures indigestion and builds up the whole system. The groat value of Dr. Williams Pink Pills in cases of this kind is proven by the statement of Mr. R. E. Small, Wingham, Ont., who says:â€"*The truthfuiness of my ‘tatement can be proven by scores of my friends and acquaintances. 1 am i glove cutter by trade and for six long years. have at times hbeen a sreat sufferer. from complication â€" of is chiefly due to indigestion.
