Now it may be that the method taken to collect the money is not above reproach. If the painter tries to give the impression that he is commissioned by the government he is apt to get into trouble. If he paints the box before consulting the owner, he is taking a chance on being unable to collect. The news items do not say whether he makes a good job or not, but if he does, then he is not "eyppintt" anybody when he charges fifty cents for his work. We believe 'that the law requires the owner of a rural mail box to keep it properly erected and in good repair. and the name of the owner must be legibly painted on the box. There is no charge for the de- livery of letters and papers to the rural mail box, but there is this one condition. Everybody knows that few farmers live up to the agreement on some, rural routes. The boxes sag, they become rusty or dirty, the name fades " or is not changed when the, farm is sold. Under these circumstances the mailman is not obliged to deliver mail. Along some main roads. every box is kept in repair and 'neatly and uniformly painted. if this is the work of some ambitious young man. he is to be commended rather than censured. so long as he does not misrepresent his position.

Many weekly papers are telling the sad story of farmers being "gypped" by a man who has discovered a new way to make his living. He goes to a farm with a mail box that hasn't seen a coat of paint since it was new, and he paint: it all over, puts the name on again and charges fifty cents for doing the Job. In the Quebec Legislature members are much interested in the action of Premier Duplessis in exposing every offense it alleges the Taschereau Liberal government was guilty of. One case was where $45,000 was paid in indemnities to non-existent members of the Legislature. Another case is where a prominent supporter of the government is alleged to have paid employees with public funds. A third case is an alleged shortage of $56,000 in Montreal court house funds. Premier Duplessis is de- termined to make a full investigation which may not be pleasing to some former members and officials of the Government. In recent years young people have had a - if ' . craving for thrills and the other day it cost the D.eath . _removed another outstanding lives of ten persons near Pittsburg, Pa. "A American te.itizen m Mr James Qouzens, for.mer thrill or your money back" was the 2iosrGSl.1t,th,a,y, citizen, who invested his. small savmgs which induced them to go for a ride in an aero- with Henry Ford..

A few minutes after the plane left the years ago he received f.3,0.,000,.0llo for his shore. ground it plunged into a woods and caught fire, He gave generously of his millions to charity. and the ten exeut.tsion.i.st.s, were given 'c) -r-r-....-..--r- 'Thrill", but it was the thrill of death. Eight million dollars was the total Ontario Aeroplanes have their place but foolhardy fire loss in 1986, as compared to sixteen million driving to give thrills to young folks frequently dollars in 1981. Careless smokers continue to result in accidents and this keeps many people be responsible for fires, being 2,763 out of a from becoming air-minded. .total of 16,686. A case came to the attention of the Ontario welfare minister where twenty-two families on relief at Riverside, near Windsor, owned and operated motor cars. The administration im- mediately ordered the license plates taken up but the t0wn council ordered them restored. For the second time the Ontario government order- ed them lifted and the municipality again or- dered them restored, claiming the cars were needed by these people on relief in their search for work. It is wrong to allow people receiving direct relief to operate motor cars while the taxpayer contributing toward relief is unable to afford and enjoy the advantages of car ownership. If people own and operate motor cars they surely cannot be classed as destitute. It is unfair to the taxpayer and should not be allowed. On Application.

We are inclined to agree with the Alliston Reeve in not wanting county councils abolished. It has been proven in many instances that the farther away governments get from the people they represent, the poorer the administration. Township and county councils have been care- ful to keep expenditures as low as possible but this cannot be said of provincial government expenditures during the past few decades as they have been increased many times. The Hepburn government is doing its best to keep expenditures within bounds but once there is a fixed overhead it is difficult to reduce it. Ontario municipalities have done well by its needy and no one has been allowed to go hungry or without clothing and shelter. In some cases more than actually needed has been given to people on relief, resulting in an un- necessary imposition on the taxpayer. $45,000 FOR NON-EXISTENT MEMBERS m mm 1uiiiiiiiLii F' r,- a'" ""," 'i"'T"""rrGriii; IMPROPER USE OF RELIEF FUNDS "THRrLLS" PROVE COSTLY VALUE FOR THE MONEY (Fergus News-Record) With the new stream-lined railway pas- senger coaches, travel by rail is becoming more popular in Canada, United States and England. thirteen years. {scoured his eyesight over- night.

Communist propaganda among school children in Canada should be stamped out.

In the United States little pigs Were thrown into the river, much surplus grain and cotton burned in the hope of raising prices. In Ger- many where there was a surplus of 6,000,000 gallons of wine, the people were invited by the Nazi government to drink it up, and they did so in no uncertain manner. Death removed another outstanding American citizen in Mr. James Couzens, former Chatham citizen, who invested his small savings with Henry Ford. When he withdrew some years ago he received $30,000,000 for his share. He gave generously of his millions to charity. There is a good deal said about the desirability of the store, owner in the smaller communities, yet people go to the city and hunt out the larger stores when they want to buy an article, thus making the big fellow bigger and the little fellow smaller. And the strengepsrt of it is that the same person, after having helped the bigger fellow with his patronage, will sit down and howl his head oft about how big business in this country is strangling the little fellow. It isn't big business that strangled the little fellow-- it is the customer who gives his trade to the big fellow who is responsible.' Prince Arthur is quoted in a Washington news- paper as saying after four weeks in the United States that he is impressed with the beauty of the American girl: he has seen. "But," he tsitrnithtmstlr adds, "the prettiest American girls are in the small towns, I have noticed. Their beauty is fresher and more natural than that of the girls in the big cities." Complaints by taxpayers over tax bills are so frequent that municinal treasurers pay little heed to them. At Fort Erie, a woman who paid a $120 tax bill, remarked: "My, but taxes are getting terrible in this town." Auditors later found she had been assessed $2,500 on a vacant gt, instead of $600, and she was refunded 1.20. A European prince, being interviewed in the United Staten, could not, of course, hope to escape being naked his opinion of Americun girls. And a European prince, of course, would never be other than tectful. Prince Arthur Gilbaut of Belgium is no exception.
