What a dismal picture for a young country, and these fig- ures include only those who are en- tirely destitute. They do not include farmers whose revenues have dwindled to a point where they cannot meet interest and taxes, or keep their farms and homes in proper repair; they do not include families that are living on rapidly diminishing savings, or earnings that have shrunk to a pittance. They are, however, indi- cative of a situation which Canada has never faced in the past and which is adding steadily to the strain on the country’s resources. The unusual occurrence of the seven threes last Friday, sure started some- thing in financial circles in the USA. The number dependent on the municipality for relief seems to be continually increasing in district municipalities. An indication that times are rap- idly getting worse instead of better is the fact that “relief” paid out in Markham Township in one month this year about equals the total cost for the entire year of 1931. The same applies to Richmond Hill. Orillia’s recently organized civic relief committee intends putting on a campaign, beginning this Week, to raise $8,000 locally by contributions, which sum, with equal amounts beâ€" ing given by the Ontario and Domin- ion governments, would make a total fund of $24,000. Here’s one which the Fergus News- Record heard at the recent session of the Wellington county council: It is said that a number from North /Wellington was going along the street in Guelph during the session. A farmer drove up and said to him: “Here! Will you hold my horse a minute?” “Sir,” he replied with dig- nity, “I am a county councillor.” “Oh, well. even if you are, I’ll take a chance.” Canada, with a pOpulation of a little over ten million, has 1,357,562 persons on direct relief. Thirteen per cent of the men, women and children in this country are being kept alive by the relief contributed by Federal, Provincial and Municiâ€" pal Governments His Honor Lieut.-Govenor Dr. H. A. Bruce, Premier Hon. 'G. S. Henry and County Warden George B. Elliott, will be tendered a complimentary ban- quet, by citizens of North York Town- ship, Friday evening, March 3lst. While municipal taxes imposed on rural Ontario are fourteen times the amount they were fifty years ago, field crops of Provincial farms have decreased in value by 812.000,000 in the same period, a statistical sum- mary of rural and urban taxation over the past several decades shows. The increase in taxation between 1911 Legislation to prohibit represent- atives of municipalities in default of their. levy from sitting on county council will be discussed at the next meeting of the York county council legislative committee. Members of the committee, in session last week, decided to take the matter under cori- sideration. Hockey may be an expensive pas- time to some people, but not so to Norm Hopper of town. Last week Norm held a twentyâ€"five cent ticket in a hockey pool that netted him $999.75. Some two years back other local men had runs up to $600, but this last grand slam tops the list.â€" Newmarket Expressâ€"Herald. Milk is the most glaring example of the exploitation of the farmer. A Parry Sound buyer of hides, a few days ago, burned up two car- loads of hides rather than sell them at the low price prevailing, appar- ently unable to see any hope of a rise in the price of this commodity. Hides are selling at less than 1c per pound, whereas 10c. was the prevail ing price four years ago. ‘ The town of, Midland is putting forth determined endeavors to avert a financial crisis and its councillors have come to the conclusion that re- lief expenditures will have to be cut 50 per cent. GENERAL NEWS AND VIEWS ago and 1931 is termed “amazing” in the] report which was submitted to thel Ontario Agricultural Council last week" and it observes that “local govern- ments must in the future show more consideration of the ability of the taxpayer to pay taxes that they have in the past.” This advice applies to not only local governments, but to all governments, and it cannot be too strongly impressed upon those in authority at Ottawa and Toronto. As a result of threatened legal pro- ceedings to disqualify them four Pem- broke town councillors have resigned. All four had done busineSS with the municipality after being elected, and thus made themselves liable to dis- qualification. Referring to jaunts taken by mun- icipal representatives at the expense of the public. the Chesley_ Enterprise describes attendance at the Good Roads Convention in Toronto as.“the real gallivanting tripâ€"a wonderful jollification at the public expense without any public benefit" That sizes it up about right. There is a man in our town, And he was wondrous wise, He swore by all the gods above, He would not advertise! But one day he did break this rule, And thereby hangs a tale, The ad was set in real small type, And headed “Sheriff’s Sale.” One factory in New York in turn~ ing out 2,500,000 of the puzzles every week now, and the number of people employed in the industry, in the me- tropolis alone is estimated at 2,000. Cardboard and paper box plants in the vicinity of Boston, idle a little while ago, are producing puzzles at the rate of 15,000 a day. Mr. Roy Bowen, who had his ton- sils removed last week by Dr. Wilâ€" Iiams of Aurora, was at the home of his aunt, Mrs. Murray, Aurora, is home again. A fad like the jig saw puzzle is not only a means of amusement to the public at large, but it means bread and butter to the men and women who manufacture and market the little blocks. Druggist Mr. Alexander and Mr. Robeson of Maple with Rev. Wallace of Toronto, attended services here Sunday morn- ing. Mr. and Mrs. Carver King, visited with Piercey’s on Sunday and attendâ€" ed the church service. Mr. B. Corfield has returned to his work with the Bell‘ Telephone Com- pany and feels that “Happy Days are Here Again.” W. L. Adams was bloated so with gas that his heart often missed beats after eating. Adlerika rid him of all gas, and now he eats anything and feels fine. Mr. and Mrs. Moodie and daughter Noreen were Sunday visitors at J. McLaughlins. Teston Y.P.S. will take part in the Rally at Maple next Sunday evening. The regular meeting of the Junior Farmers’ will be held in the Com- munity Hall on Tuesday evening, March 14th, at 8 p.m. Mr. Wm. Vanderbent is going to speak on the topic of Farm Poultry.
