The world was shocked to read the other day of the execution of former Cabinet Min, isters of Greece by the new party which is in the ascendancy there, they being held respons- ible for the disastrous defeat of the Greeks ’in their campaign against the Turks. Borne of these men had a dream of building up I . new Empire, but their plane failed when the Greek armies were routed by the Turks.

JJ) The citizen), of Waterloo have always been noted for their generosity of spirit when it comes to assisting worthy objects and in this case the need is obvious. The" members of the Council are conversant with the situation, and will, wp feel sure, be favorable to making the most generous grant possible. The urgent need of more assistance for the relief of those towns in Northern Ontario which were almost totally destroyed by the recent devastating fire which swept that coun- try some weeks ago, was impressed upon the delegation of Mayors and Presidents of Boards of Trade which recently visited the north. The sum of '600,000 has been the amount fixed upon as being immediately necessary to, help to rebuild the towns affected, and to as- l sist the settlers in restoring their homes. The various municipalities are being asked to con- tribute a half mill on their assessment less the amount of gents already made. . Motorists and drivers of vehicles generally Mill be pleased to learn that the bad stretch of roadway between William and Union Sts., will be paved in the spring. Councillor Bauer who in council particularly advocated the Pav- ing of the street, has, with a commendable public spirit, circulated and had signed by the ratepayers affected the necessary petition with the result that this part of King St. will be paved next year. This will complete the last link of unpaved roadway between Waterloo and Kitchener, which, on account of heavy traffic, has required constant repairing, involv- ing the expenditure of a considerable amount of money to keep it in shape. The putting down of a permanent roadway will, in the long! run,' prove more economical and give the most; satisfactory service. .. i 's' than” k "ue. ............ . _-'----------------------------- l PERMANENT ROADWAY ON KING ST, In the selection of Mr. Allen Bowman as President of the Waterloo. Mutual Fire In- Surance Company, in succession to the late George Diebel, a wise choice has been made. As vice-president for the past few years and a member of the Board of Directors for up- wards of thirty years, he has been closely as- sociated with the Company and is the logical successor of the late Mr. Diebel. The new vice- president, Mr. S. B. Bricker, one of the town's most highly regarded citizens, has also had a wealth of experience in connection with In- surance, and possesses excellent qualifications] for the position. , i The new director is Mr.Uosi. Stauffer of Galt, one of the County's best known citizens, who. fills the vacancy on the Board of Directors. . and much interest is being displayed by citi- zens in the proposal. To brighten the homes and hearts of those who may not be so for- tunately circumstanoed as others in the com- munity is an undertaking altogether commend- able and reflects in a tangible way the yule- tide spirit. . year it is proposed to work out mole extensive plans, including remembrancea for the kiddies, The proposal that. Waterloo have a Gun- munity Gal-ism Tree is one that will Appeal to citizens generally. Last year generous-heart. ed citizens made many families happy by send- ing around a well filled hamper of good things which showed a real Christmas spirit.

According to recent reports there is a likelihood of the liberal parties in Great Bri- tain re-uniting.

It is headed by the mili- tant leader, Mussolini, and supported by 300,- 000 well armed youths. Recently ‘Mussolini, with his army, quietly marched to the seat of government and took possession, now ruling Italy. The party gained the reins of trovern- ment by a bloodless revolution which was the outcome of dissensions between the various) parties which made for unstable government. l . The new leader is blunt and plain sinken and has told parliament exactly what he in- tends it should do.

The execution recently of Erskine Childcare. bl, of the chief lieutenants of De Valera, lead- ier of the Republican forms in Ireland, by the [Free State government on the ground of tres son to the regularly constituted forces of gov- ernment, shows that the Irish Free State in- tends to use drastic measures against the ms) bels with the objec't of bringing the present unhappy conditions in Ireland to an end. Iti not improbable that De Valera, who still per- sists in war to the death against the new Free' State government, which is now the authorized government of that country by act of Puller ment, may meet the same fate.
