In the recent Anglo-Oznadian A- merican trade treaties, Mr. Fcrgu- son saw the birth of a new national relationship, out of which would probably develop, on the part of the three nations involved, greater, con- certed effort to maintain the secur- ity, the freedom and the lilberty for which, he said, they have always stood. “With that great league of nations, the British Empire, support, ed by the United’ States,” he said“who dare attack us?

The guest speaker, Mrs. Peter Sandlford, member of the Home and School Federation- said in‘ her address, “Our children are far more capable than the chil- drrn of the pioneer days who were given great responsibility while they were still in- their ’teens.” Parents allow their children to borrow the family car at night and then they sit up as though their wakefulness' would’ prevent an accident. Child- ren are far sharper than their par- ents ‘because they have been brought up in a motor age and besides they have bee-n gnanted a license by the zoverrrrent. If parents do not feel that their children are safe then they distrust the education that they have g'ivrn‘ them. They should be taught to make decisions and face situations early in life. Lack of be- ing able to do so is the cause 10f so face situations is the cause of so many of the nervous break-downs among our youth to-diqy. They should‘ be given money and taught how to handle it b'causue how can 2we expect our children to 2'0 out in the “orld and manage a home if they haven’t [been taught when they 'were young. When your child is -at- trending elementary ‘ school you tending elementary school you shouldn’t leave all the burden on the teachers; but "nu should‘ do your Dart at home. This is naramoun‘rl“ the time that family relations are srt-ai'te‘d. At this time the child“ is in his most foi‘mat‘ve stagn and the parent should? indulge in games and activity at home."

CHARGES ACI‘ OF TAX LEVIES BADLY ABUSED “Only a Headache.” Impactor of Municipal Affairs Declares at Oramg‘eville Orangeville, Nov. 19. -â€" E. P. Coomtbs, inspector of municipal: af- fairs for Ontario, chargcd' before Durfferin County Council yesterday that no act in the Statutes of On- tario is more abused than the As- sessment Act. “If the clauses of this act were a‘bidie-d- by the municipalities of this province the statute would not be the headache that it is to-day,” said} Mr. Coomtbs. Bcfore council and other munici- pal officials of Dufferin municipali- ties, he stated! that, because of the small wages which are (brawn annruv ally lby assessors, the only way they can do their duty is by copying their reports fram other assessment rolls. “I am Willing to gamble that there is not one municipality in Dulffe'rin County which is assessed for' IOIO per cent of its actual value,” said Mr. Coombs emphatically. “To remedy this it is necessary to hire compet- tent assessors at an increased sal- ary and! for them to fighrt'for equal- ized assessment in every municipal- ity.” ONLY FOUR COUNTIES “There are only four counties in: Ontario in whieh asseSSment is car ried! out according to statute,” he reâ€" vealed, “and I am sorry to say that Dufrferin is not one of them. Men' of to-day have not the sterling qualiâ€" ities of the pioneers 50 years ago.‘ People paid7 their taxes then and paicl them on time." Mr. Coombs further charged that rising costs of hospitalization could be traced partially to doctors who, knowing that they will get no money for trcatment of indigent patients, send these patients to hospitals for further treatment. Dealing with re- lief Mr. Coon-libs stated that “wheth- er we like it or not, relief is here to stay.” Although he did not question the reliability anti integrity of auditors employed to look after various counâ€" cils’ book, Mr- Coomlbs stated‘ that a more thorough system should be brought into effect. “The question of municipal audit is much more than addition and subtraction,” he stated. “1" could take your county books to the public school," pointâ€" ing to the school building 150 feet away, “and have the children of the Senior Fourth class audit them.” Successor to J.
