Farquhar’s ware­ house In which the village Are lad- dera and pails have been placed, and it is hoped that they will be left there until needed for toe pur­pose they were intended for. Some times when fire has broken out, the ladders and pails were needed and were not to be found, owing to the fact that some careless citizen had loaned them for their own use, and had not thought enough- to return them to the place where they be- longed. G*« Tamed Off Owing to a bad leak which ms discovered in one of the main gas pipes in the village, the gas was shut off on Wednesday afternoon, last for about one hour, throughout the village, until the leak could be repaired. Owing to the weather being quite mild and the majority of the citizens being warned, in the morning, that it was to be tout off, very little inconvenience was ex­perienced. The gas of late has proven very satisfactory to the con­ sumers hi this place as the pressure has seemingly been good and not for tome time has it been entirely shut off ns it used to be formerly.

FIFTH LENTEN SERMON The fifth Lenten sermon was preached in the circuit last Sunday by the pastor. Three texts were chosen from the 21st Chapter of Revelation and the theme was— “Where the beyond breaks through."1. "I saw a new heaven.”2. "I saw the Holy City." 3. “I heard a great voice out of heaven.”A vision such as thia only comes once in a lifetime to a man. John, the seer, looks away across the bright crystal sea and the vision brought newness of spiritual life and light to his soul. He is speaking here of what God had revealed to him personally. We each have our own thoughts of heaven. In quiet meditative moments we ponder over the anticipations of heaven. The man who sees the scene and nothing more, is always cheated. He is al­ways to be pitied. He is constantly robbing himself. He sees only a fraction of what really exists. The sculptor must see the angel in the rude block of marble; and the poet must see more than simply meets the eye. Napoleon was one of the few intellectual giants of al) the centur­ies; but he had np look into the in­ visible in man or to put it plainly, the noble, good, and spiritual in men. Napoleon left God out and God was left out of Waterloo. John saw a new era approaching; a new heaven. A question so often asked is Shall we know each other in heaven 7 That interrogation makes the Christian rest upon the message of the Word. “David that prince who fell and rose again, who slips a cog or so in his religious, life, but who- iater rejoice® in the God of hia hope. What then dote he say 7 “He cannot come back to me, but I may go to him." Paul the mighty man in valor and faith, says “Now we see through a glass darkly; but then face to face." Job, the man of trust. "Mine eyes shall behold Him and not another.’*My friends, I want you to know yoOr pastor believes in heaven; and in your hallowed moments you all do I believe. It will do us no harm to re-read the glorious promises of heaven. Heaven is just around the corner for the Christian. The near­ er we reach the end of life the ■weeter is home. "Heaven is our fatherland." Where Jeans is ‘tia heaven there.” My heaven in the Bet­ ter Land wiH be a higher plane of life than we live here. The indlff-- •erent man in discouraging momenta, say soften—“No heaven, no hell, deaths ends alL I see nothing that indicates an eternity with God. He might os well go to say, "LqS mi eat, drink, and be merry, for to­morrow we die.” Your heart craves something In the afterward of yean. Then thank God thia good man of ear­lier times MW the holy city; -a city not made with hands, a city which Loth four square. This vision did not make the unseen, it was al­ ready there.

Ingersoll A Business Man’s Prayer O God, give me the wisdom which will enable me to do the square thing. Teach me to bo gentle in the expression of the strength you have placed in my hands. (Make me always remember that truthfulness, sincerity, cleanliness and directness are the tools used by those who have become the Master Servants, and train me to use these efficiently in my daily work. Clear my vision so that never will I lose sight of »e ideal toward which I am working. Visit me with- failures so that from th can I may learn the lessons failures alone can teach, but, I pray, bless me with successes which will prove my effi­ ciency |n carrying out your com­ mands.From enemies and people who are .not on the square I do not ask to be delivered, but-1 do ask that I be given a few friends to whom may be entrusted all that is in my mind and heart. Let me master the art of using all my spiritual, mental and physical powers In the service of ,my neigh­ bors—expressing all that is finest and richest in me fully and com­ pletely. Open to me channels which will enable me to pour myself into the worl( of the wohld. Make me eager to stand before men and, fired with the desire to help others, say to then*: "Here I am; take me and do with me what you will”—always during to trust them tn take only that from me which will truly help them. I would ask, too, that I ba in­ spired to send from my heart that greatest of all prayers, “Thy Wil! Be Done,” thus proclaiming my Faith in a_Great Executive who is all-wise, all-loving, all-just, and who so manages ’ the universe that all things work together as he would .have .them. — - This God, is a business man's prayer.

Passengers Had a Narrow Escape Throe C. N. R. Coacha* Overturned nt Copetown Considerable damage to three coaches and a locomotive was done and a number of phssengem shaken up when the C. N. R. train No. 83, westbound, and due in London at 5.35 oelock, was derailed about 3.30 o’clock, Wednesday afternoon nt Capetown, 10 miles west of Hamil­ton. The train struck the boom of a bridge and building derrick which was working on the adjoining track at this point, causing complete de­railment, which threw three day coaches over on their side.The train in charge of Engineer McLaughlin, of Sarnia, and Conduc­ tor McCormick, of Toronto, was etopped almost immediately, and it was due to the fact that it was trav­ elling on a middle track that the three upset coaches did not roll down the steep embankment alongside the traek and that the accident did not have fata! results, as well as serious gers.

THE ART EXHIBIT .Judging from the interest shown by the pupils and the general pub­lic, the Art Exhibit held recently in the Memorial School was a success. No one can estimate the value and influence of a good picture. This exhibit gave us an opportunity of seeing reproductions and many of the world-famous masterpieces. The net proceeds $114. gives us the op­portunity of purcahsing some of these for the walls of our school.We are indebted to Mns. E. A. Wilson, for the picture, "The Com­ing of the White Man," and to Mr. and Mrs. F. N. Horton for “Milton Dictating Paradise Lost." The oth­er pictures being purchased are, "The Gleaners," "The Age of Inno­ cence," "The Artist's Mother,” “The Corn Field," “The Fighting Temer- line," and "The Embarkation of the Pilgrims." It is expected these pic- aire,” “Cicero’s Oration before Cati- tures will arrive in a short time. The small pictures that were ordered have arrived and the teachers are distributing them. The delay in the order for the larger ones Was caused by having them shipped by freightIB. will receive as their prize for ticket selling the famous picture, "Sir Galahad."

NEW TRAFFIC LAW IS KFFECTJVE IN ONTARIO Revised Regulation* Are in Fores Throughout Proviso*- Various Stip­ulation* Have Far-Reaching EF- ’ feci and Motori»U Would Do Well to Study Rulo*. The new Highway Traffic Act has come into force throughout On­tario. For some years the traffic law* of the province have been cov- ered by three separate acts. The Motor Vehicles Act dealt with the operation of motor vehicles in gener- tal; the Load of Vehicles Act con­tained provisions governing the •weight? wpeed, size of loads on all vehicles, including motor trucks; and the Highway Travel Act set forth the rules of the roa^ as af­ fecting both motor and horse-drawn vehicle*. These acts had been amend­ed frequently since 'their inception, with the result that they were diffi­ cult to understand, and we re, owing to the rapid advance in the#use of motor vehicles, not as up-to-date as they might be. A few of the more important paints are briefly summarized as fol­lows :—Speed Limit* the Same The speed limits are the same as before, viz., 25 miles an hour in the country, and 20 miles in cities, towns, and villages, with limits of 10 and 12 1-2 mileA an hour in cor­porations and in the Country re­ spectively, past intersections where the view is obscured.Notwithstanding the speed limits stated above, any one who drives a motor vehicle recklessly or negli­gently or in a manner dangerous to tiie public, is liable to a maximum penalty of $200, shall be liable to imprisonment up to 60 days, and may have the permit for the car cancelled for a period not greater than six months. Where a speed greater than 40 miles an hour is made, the offender is aubject to the same penalties and magistrates have no option other than to treat it as reckless driving. Tail lamps shall be of at least four candle power and are required* to properly illuminate the number plates.When ears are standing on the rood, one light carried on the left side will be allowed if it is clearly visible for a distance of 200 feet from the front and rear, and shows white in front and red to the rear.Brakes are subject to. inspection by police officials, and if not in good order the police may order the driver to have them properly ad­ justed.No flange or damps are allowed on wheels which may in any way injure the road. Moil Show Serial NumberCars must not be bought, sold or wrecked, if the manufacture™’ serial number is defaced or removed.No vehicles which with their loads weigh more than 10 tons, can use the roadg without special per­mits. Such permits may be grant­ed by the authorities having control of the roads such as villages, towns, cities, townships, counties and the Departments of Highways, Up to DecemherfJl, 1925, motor trucks, which, with their loads ex­ceed ten tons in weight, and which were previously registered in On­tario, may receive special permits to carry a maximum load of five tons.After January 1, 1926, motor trucks with their loads must not weigh more than eight tons. Govern* Tire Width AU vehicles with tires less than 6 inches in width must not have a greater load on any wheel than will exert a pressure of 500 opunds for each inch in width. Thus s 5-iijch tire must not carry a total weight greater than 2,500 pounds. For tires over 6 inches in width the maximum weight per ienh in width ia 600 pounds, consequently an 8- inch tire may carry 4,800 puonds.Broken or defaced tires wiU not be permitted and all solid tires must have 1 1-4 inches of rubber be­ tween the rim and the road.During the months of March and April, motor trucks rated at more than one ton must not carry more than half the rated load outside of cities and towns separated from the counties for municipal pur- poaes. During the same period all other vehicles are restricted to a wheel load of 250 pounds for each inch of tire width, without special permit.Motor trucks must not carry a load greater than that for which they are registered. AU vehicles while carrying loads extending over the rear for more than five feet, must carry a red flag by day and a red light at night at­tached to the rear of the load. Bicycle* Carry Signal* Bicycles are required to rarry red lamps or reflectors at the rear.SpotiigHta will be permitted, pro­ vided they are stationary and are attached to the left of the motor vehicle, with the light directed to the right-hand slide, striking the road within 75 feet in front of the vehicle. Movable spotlights are not allowed. Probably the most outstanding changes in the act ia that providing for the recording of convictions on the pennit issued for motor vehicles and for tiie cancellation of the per­mits on three convictions for certain offense*. Permit cards .will have space provided on them for the recording of convictions, and motor- tata who are summonsed will be re­quired to present these in court in order that the magistrates may en- dorae them. The amount of the fines, and the»cancelknion of per- mita, . in many esses, depend on the number of convictions, and the above procedure is necessary In or­der that magWtrates may know how many previous convictions have been made.

The Honourable W. R. Motherwell, Minister of Agriculture, in the an­nual report on the work of Ms De­ partment draws attention to the fact that during the past five years up­wards of 88,000 heifers, 84,000 ewes and 678 sows have been preserved by means of this arrangement and returned to farms for breeding pur­poses. The policy calls for the re­mission of freight charges on useful female breeding stock of cattle, sheep and hogs purchased by farm­ ers at stockyards with this object in view, provided the purchases are not made with speculative intent.

It helped him to spend his money, and was graciously blind to the darker pages of history—nevertheless, those pages were an open book to local gossips.Figuero, a shrewd and level-beaded scoundrel, was the most taken aback of the trio at this unlooked-for meet­ing. He was aware of the love pas­sages between Warden and Rosa­mund Laing: he feared Warden; and here was the woman whom Warden had once loved crossing his path at an awkward hour.The situation might have provided harmless Interest for a number of unimportant people at Lochmerig If Figuero had not recognised Evelyn Dane the instant he set eyes on her. Straightway tbe tiny rills of intrigue and suspicion flowing through the ad­venturer's brain, united into a tor­rent. x Seizing the first opportunity that presented Itself, he drew Baumgart­ ner into an unoccupied room, and closed and locked the door. Before the surprised millionaire could utter a word of protest, the West African firebrand began to Question him In his own tongue, since Baumgattner, despite his Teutonic label and sem­ blance, had a Portuguese mother."Why did you fall to recognise the girl I described to you In Cowes?” he demanded fiercely. "Malediction 1 Are you mad, that you would risk our enterprise In this fashion!""You must neither address me in that manner nor talk In riddles," stanM. our own purpose, r aim far from crediting an Insignificant official of the Niger Company with the Importance you seem to attach to him, but, granted Tae is a hostile in­fluence to be feared, why not stalk him through an unsuspecting agent?""You don’t rate him high enough,” muttered Flguerw, "He can sway those stupid niggers like no other man in Nigeria. He talks Arabic and Hausa and Krooboy palaver as well as I do. He broke the Oku Ju-ju when It was worth a thousand lives to touch a stick or a feather. If Warden gets wind of our project be­fore we are ready, we will fail, and you realize what that means to ail A dinner gong came to Baum­gartner's aid. He wished to avoid any discussion on the last point raised by the Portuguese. It bristled with thorn’s. Von Rippenbach revealed some of its cactus-llke properties earlier in the evening."You and I and the Count will go into other matters fully to-morrow," he Baid. “As for Mlsa Dane, I shall clear up that difficulty without delay. Act u. though you had never seen her before, and keep your ears open during dinner," growled Baumi How am I to .r. ''What girl ? one among theten thousand glrte of a regatta week?"“Riddles! It is you who are tho conundrum, senhor. I tell you that this Englishman, Captain Warden, a deputy commissioner in Nigeria, is the .man we have most to fear, yet you permit one who ia probably his fiancee, and surely In league with him, to live In your hou#e and spy on the actions of yourself and your friends. Wbat will Count Rippan- bach think when I tell him? What win the emperor say, after all the precautions we took that none should know——”"Blioncel” reared Baumgartner, who could hold his own in matters that demanded clear thinking and careful guidance. "You are too ready with some names, Senhor Figuero, yet too sparing at others that may explain your folly. Of whom are you speaking ?" "Of tbe young Englishwoman I have Just met, of course. I am not good at catching these strange words, but I mean the good-looking one, the tall slim girl In white mus­lin, she with brown hair and Ma­donna cye»K>-T-""DO you mean Miss Dane?".-that la abe.I remember "My daughter’] Nonsense!"companion I "It is true, I tell you. Am I likely to forget a face—and such a lace! Did I riot describe her dress? She must have left your yacht just before Warden met her. And they are lovers. How can I be mistaken? They went away from Cowes In the same train. I told you her destina­tion. What was 1t? I have it writ­ten here”; and he hurriedly turned over tbe leaves of a notebook.Baumgartner was undoubtedly Im- presaed. Figuero's earnestness was not to be gainsaid, and be had an unpleasant belief, now he came to recall the Incidents of a busy day, that Evelyn Dane was dressed exact­ly as Warden's unknown acquaint­ance was pictured. Meanwhile, the Portuguese found the memorandum he sought. "Here H Is," he snapped, nil a-Quivor with tho doubts that threatened the destruction of his pet scheme of vengeance on the British power which had stopped the aupply of BIBVM to the Sultan of Bogota, "Langton in Oxfordshire — that Is the place.

But the millionaire, though he might toady to a ScotUsh gillie for a crumb of recognition as a marks-' man, had not attained his present position by displaying weakness m face of a crisis.

She noticed tbe eager attention with which he followed tbU trivial bit of talk, though hie limited knowledge of English render­ed most of tbe lively chatter at the table unintelligible. "Were you In Cowee during the regatta week, Senhor Figuero?" she asked.It was a reasonable deduction from his presence at Lochmerig, but she little guessed the devilish purpose engendered tn that alert bra in-by her aimless inquiry. The Portugueae felt that he was al a dis­advantage among the gay throng gathered under Baumgartner's roof. His nimble wits were dulled by the barrier of language. It put4itm out­side the pale. Things might be oc­curring which he ought to know, but which were hidden from him owing to this drawback.

"You fit for fool palaver.

"Then you really were on board the Sans Souci st Cowes.

If words could wound, (hen Evelyn must have suc­cumbed, but the Injuries they inflict are not always visible, and she kept a stiff upper lip, though her heart raced in wild tumult. "The Inference is that you are far more Interested lu Captain Warden's visits to Cowes than I or any other person can pretend to be," she said slowly. ' She meant the cold-drawn phrase to hurt, and In that sho succeeded, though her own voice sounded in her ears aa if it hud come from afar"Well, perhaps you ought to be told that ho and I are engaged,” said Rosamund, stung to a sudden fury of lying, "Don't Imagine I bear malice.

The find loan of $36,000 under the by-flaw was se­cured In 1914, whieh year also «aw the beginning of the county road system under the control of the townships. In this system the Town­ ship Council drew op an estimate of -the money they desire to spend each year on the county roads with­in their boundaries and ask the County Council to raise it for them. TMa is then assessed back to the townships as a special rate and each year's expenditures are cleaned off the slate In the same year. This marked the beginning of the system under which the county is now oper­ating, and which it has been request­ed to discontinue. Under it, large sums of money have been used in building up a good system of county roads, the amounts raised in the var­ious years being as follows .—1914, $10,966; 1915, $8,000; 1916, $lr 680; 1917,-$6,280; 1918, $11,865; 1919, $20,680; 1920, $42,780; 1921, $45,200; 1922,"$31.900; 1923, $18,- 800.

The judges, Rev. W. P. Lane of Embro, Richard Langdon of West Zorra and Tom McLeod of Kin to re decided in fav­our of the negative. Mr. John Mc­Donald of Envbro, made a very cap- .able chairman.

F. C. Biggs, has set the people of the county thinking over the tremen­ dous increase in the COM of their roads during recent years. Not only the road expenditures, but also the expenditures for general purposes have grown tremendously, and they form an interesting subject of study to be 35,054. At that time the Town of Ingersoll was included in the county." The highest population figure recorded was in 1909, when the total was 37,774. In 1913 Inger­ soll was separated from the county. The population for that year is giv­en as 36,354. The next year, 1914 found the population down to 31,238 The lowest level reached WM 29,607, which was the figure in 1920. The assesaors’ figures for last year show the population to be 30,- 329, which, strange to say, is exactly two less than it was in 1922. An analysis of the expenditures for roads during these years give# some idea of why the people of Ox­ford are perturbed over the threat of the Government to withhold the grant unless the County Council com­ plies with the order to change the system. The total expenditures of the county in 1905 were $41,281.53. This was made up of $20,000 for general purposes, $10,205.17 toT--,--------provide for the sinking fund and in- terest on a debenture issue of $155,- and comparison. ,000 -m--a--d-e- -in- -1-8--9-3-- f-o r’ —th e -erection Robert McIntosh, the veteran . of a court house and house of re- county treasurer, has been in that of- I debentures ran an untilfice for the part 19 years, haying . 1913, when the last payment of taken it over in March of 1905.

In the same time he has watched the expenditures for roads amount from $ri7uW36 in 1905 to their highest level of $74,074 in 1921, and then slip back a little to $50,883.53 in 1923. In his first year of office the total expenditures of the county were $41,231.53. In 1922 they reached the peak, the fig- gure in that year being $234,991.04, and in 1923 they went back slightly to $213,700.85.. Population Lei*Strange to say the papulation fig­ures are now actually less than they were in the year 1905. In that year the reports of the assessors of the municipalities showed the population was provided for the payment of sinking fund and interest on an is­sue of debenture# for the purchaseand improvement of toll roads. In 1907 a new system was adopted and this payment of sinking fund and^n- terest dropped to $2,575.36, but in the same year a by-law was passed authorizing the borrowing of $236,- 000 for highway purposes. The first loan of $50,000 under this by-law was secured in 1907. Similar bor­rowings were made in 1908, 1909 and 1910 and in 1911 the final issue of $36,000 under that by-lww was made. This created a sinking fund and interest payment each year since then of $15,352.13, starting from 1912.Road Work in 1913 In 1913 another road by-law was passed, providing for the borrowing was a sum of $36,000 borrowed, which added an annual sinking fund and interest payment $2,341.85. The i same amount was borrowed in 1915 1 bringing the sinking fund and inter- . eat payments up to $4,693.70. The ■ next year $7,000 more were added to the list, bringing the yearly pro­vision for these debentures up to $5,590.23. The borrowing has gone on from year to year as follows 1917, $10,800; 1919, $22,000; 1920, $12,860; 1921, $21,400; 1922, $31,- 900; 1923, $18,300. As the amount of debentures issued grew the annu­al sinking fund and interest pay­ments grew in proportion, 80 that >n 1923 a sum of $14,755.09 had to be provided in the estimates for this purpose.To sum up the expenditures of the county and show the increases from year to year the following tabl^ have been prepared. It should Be noted that there is a discrepancy of $10,206.17 in the totals for the years from 1905 to 1913 inclusive. This is because that amount was the sum required for the court house and house of refuge debentures, and these have no bearings on the pres­ent expenatures. It should also be noted that the population of Inger­ soll is included up to 1913.Totals Population — *--------"" 35.054 35,345 35,807 36,724 37,774 36,715 36,123 36,262 36,354 31,248 31,685 31,951 30,170 29,879 29,618 29,607 28,889 30,331 30,329 in the Thamesford hall, under the auspices of the Thamesford Pres- bytterian choir, on Friday evening, The hall was filled to the doom and many were una'ble to get admission. ■After the play the members of the choir served a dainty lundh to the performers.

Some townships have been progressive and have construct­ ed many miles of county roads and spent a great deal of money. North Norwich for instance has epent $74,- 000; Dereham has spent over $59,- 000, and East Zorra over $43,000. Blenheim, <on the other hand, has spent a little over $10,000 and Blandford has spent only between $6,000 and $7,000. The townships which have spent much money are strongly opposed to starting on an even basis with the other townships, and having all the future work of the county road system paid for by a general assessment of the whole county, in whieh they would pay a share of the expenditures made in the townships wtiich in the past have fallen behind in county road builifing white they have been perfecting and paying for an excellent system of county roads. a n d B a c o n Swift Canadian Co.
