Municipal nominations and elections are only a. few weeks away, which means that all elective municipal offices will then be filled for another year. Before the heat of election comes' on it is well to con- sider in quiet reflection what is best for the municipalities and your own interests. Electors will be called upon to choose men by nomination and p055- ibly by ballot to conduct the affairs of the municipality. It is well to remember that at elections the electors are choosing men for executive positions NOT PICKING GOOD FELLOWS FOR A SOCIAL TIME. Personalities and small petty grievances and personal likes and dislik- es should be forgotten and fitness and ability to fill the positions should be the chief consideration.

It depends on the men selected how efficiently the municipal business will be conducted. If as an elector you want any jokes on election day or have any per- sonal scores to settle be prepared to pay for your fun. If you want progressive business administration select men who have those qualifi- cations. In a few weeks your taxes will be due. You have every right to ask yourself what you have received for your money? Are you satisfied with the progress that has or has not been made and are you satisfied that you have got value for your money? The time to deter- mine who will have the spending of your money next year is at the nomination meeting and at the elections. . , . uv Viv-n ...__-,__=, W, Every public man who transacts public business and expresses his opinions on public matters is sure to run contrary to the views of some. It is therefore comparatively easy for a new man to criticize. CRIT- ICISM IS ONLY GOOD WHEN IT IS CONSTRUCTIVE.

We report the activities of the town and township councils as fully as possible with regard only for our duty to our sub-l scribers and the community in giving them all the information concern- ing the transaction of their business. We look upon municipal elect- ions as a straight business proposition for the electors of the munici- pality. , W'e endeavour to the best of our ability to giVe all the inform- ation and it rests with the people to weight the evidence contained in the record of councils from month to month and act and vote accord- ingly.

Highway officials are drawing attention to a serious menace to traffic which ’should be carefully considered by all motorists using pro- vincial highways. It refers to the attitude of many motorists with re- gard to the stop signs created at all intersections on provincial high- ways, declaring the latter roads to be through streets. It has been noted of late that people approaching the highway from sideroads do not always stop. They disregard utterly the signs informing them that they must not enter a provincial highway Without BUILDERS VS. DESTROYERS In every community, in every stlate and in the nation at large we have builders and we have destroyers. In between We have a large class which does nothing actively in either direction. It would seem that the less active element would at least lend its moral support to the builders, but unfortunately this is not always the case, particularly when the destroyers by noisy clamor and misrepres- entation seek to discredit the constructive work the builders are trying to do. The builder is always under fire. No matter how much he may give of time, money and effort to the upbuilding of his community and state, the destroyers are on his trail with a magnifying glass seeking to discover sinister and selfish motives. Being incapable of construcâ€" tive effort themselves, they must be content with tearing down. But the builder does not stop building on that account. The very spirit which makes him a builder also makes him indifferent to attacks which are as futile as they are unjust. He knows that in the long run he Will Win, regardless of temporary misunderstanding and abuse, because the knockers will finally hang themselves if given sufficient rope. u-u.°...c .w-.- v.._- H V In some counties prosecutions are being started to correct this evil and no doubt the people who receive notices to pay fines for such off- enses may consider themselves terribly abused, when persons who commit more serious infractions of the law are never caughtâ€"but, as a matter of fact, the act of ignoring a stop sign in these days of heavy traffic is a serious offense. ' Motorists who know that provincial highways are through streets depend upon others obeying the law, and when they note a car apâ€" proaching from a side street they naturally expect that car to come to a stop before entering the highway, and so they act accordingly. When the car doesn't stop accidents are sometimes narrowly averted, and in other instances they actually occur. It is well to remember always that all provincial highways are through streets. The person who enters such a highway does so at his own risk, and if an accident is caused, that person is entirely to blame. The only safe way to approach a provincial highway is to come to a full stop, to be sure that there is a reasonable opportunity to enter without causing danger to traffic. Moreover this is the law, and it must be obeyed. " ir‘r Established 1878 AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT RICHMOND HILL THE LIBERAL PRINTING CO., LTD. J.

So many enquiries have been made concerning the disinfection of a room or house after a case of communicâ€" able disease has occurred, that the matter is chosen for the subject of this article. The objective of disinfection is to destroy the germs which cause disea- se. Disease germs grow only inside the human or animal body. They leave the body of the sick in the disâ€" charges and secretions of the body. Once outside of the body, the germs die "offâ€"most of them very quickly. Drying and sunlight are nature’s methods of destroying these enemies. Darkh damp corners delay nature’s action, Concurrent disinfection is the term used to mean the disinfection that is carried on during a disease. It aims, by prompt disinfection of the body discharges and secretions, to destroy the disease germs they contain beâ€" fore there is any chance of their com- ing in contact with some well person. The eating utensils are disinfected to destroy the germs in the saliva that is left on cups, spoons, etc., by the dis- (173) More than SOINO acres of Indian lands. which include some of the best agricultural Areas in the Peace River district; are likely to be sold at auction in the near future.

A new industryâ€"badger tarm- lngâ€"may be started in Saskatche- wan by John Rothenberger. farmer. of Vanguard. Last spring Mr. Rothenberger caught a. badger and four pups. He built a large pen, about 15 feet long and 4 feet wide. During summer he fed the badgers until they are now quite tame, and are said to be larger than any badger running wild.

Terminal disinfection is the term used to mean the disinfection after recovery of the patient. If Concur- rent Disinfection has been properly observed, there is no need of Terminal Disinfection, because all the secreâ€" tions will have been looked after. This is the point which needs to be clearly understood; proper care dur- ing the ‘disease prevents its spread. Terminal Disinfection has been dis- continued in many cities, and all at- tention given to Concurreng Disin- fection. ‘ To try and kill off a few germs that may have survived in a room, after_ the recovery of a patient, is a matter of practically no importance compar- ed with the need for destruction of the millions of germs given off during the course of the disease.
