V. Buchanan presiding. Act- , ing Mayor S. L. Shelton and Com­ missioner F. C. Elliott were also present The minutep of the meeting ; held on Monday, November 20th, were read and confirmed- Considerable discussion took place in regard to the payment of an ac* count from the. firm that supplied , the new engine which has been in- , stalled in the pump house. Com mis- , sloner Elliott was of the opinion ■that the account should be settled ( according to the letter of the con- tract that had been signed by the i commission and permission obtained j from the council to borrow the re- quired amount * Chairman Buchanan was of the , opinion that the account could be d left over till the incoming commis­ sion had been installed In office and , debentures could then be issued to . take care of the entire expenditure. , Mn Elliott held that with the , council in a position to make tha . loan possible at 5 per cent it was not good business to pay the com- . pany 6 per cent, interest. Acting Mayor Shelton asked what , the amount due on Dec. 16 was and was informed that there was |2,833- . 50 due on that date with the balance , of the account due on Jan. 16th. Chairman Buchanan believed the ( matter should be left over till the , new year especially in view of the , fact that a further payment of , |l,700 was due Rhe town on deben- . tore debt, and an item of |1,800 ( wbuld also be due in January for , th* piping necessary at th* pump house and reservoir. This made a to- ; tai of $3,500 besides the engine ac- | count and the entire amount could , be included in Uh* debenture when 5 issued. , On motion th* several accounts in the. electric and waterworks deport- j merits were ordered paid. Commissioner Elliott introduced a resolution in regard to the Ontario Municipal Electric Association Con- ; vention that he had prepared follow- , ing the convention in June of this । year hut which had been shelved at ( that time. As th* next convention , period is near at hand he explained . his stand on the agenda as at present ' carried out and criticized the execu- j tive of the O. M. E. A. (or the amount of Um* that was spent in actual buri- ] ness M against the great amount of । time in recreational and light-oeeing ( periods. He felt that tha munici­ palities should be a vital fadtor in the enactments of the aasoeiaton and that there should be more free and full dismission by the delegates at the convention*. The resolution M presented by Mr. Elliott and seconded by Mr. Shelton is M followa: “We respectfully sug­ gest to the executive committee of ; the 0. M. E. A. that in the future 1 convention*, more sessions and more ' time on the programs be given to the free discussion of hydro electric matter* and problems; that address­ es and discussions on matter* of in­ terest to local commission* be ar­ ranged. That an evening sfcseion could very profitably take the place of some of the social entertainment; that the executive committee of the O.M.E.A. should fed a very defin­ ite responsibility as our represen­ tatives in both consultations with the Provincial Hydro ’Commsrion and in their report* to the conventions. That a copy of this resolution be for­ warded to the secretary °f **« At a special meeting of the council Friday night, a by-law waa passed for the borrowing .of an additional 119,000 from the bank for the com­ pletion of the year’s municipal busi­ ness. , Acting Mayor Shelton WM in the chair. Councillors Cornell and Smart were not in attendance. A resolution was moved by Coun­ cillor Kirwin and seconded by Coun­ cillor Morgan, appointing an extra policeman to patrol the business section from now until the end of the year at nights. It was stipulated that this man bo chosen from the ranks of the unemployed. It waa also decided that a greater effort to collect taxea be put forth in view of the large amount of arrears outstanding. Chief of Police GilHng waited up­ on the council regarding the installs tion of a clock system for police duty. Nothing definite was done, the matter being left over until the next committee meeting. copy of this resolution be sent to the Ontario Hydro Electric Commission.’’ Commissioner Elliott commented upon the efficiency that had been manifest during the year in the board and regretted very much the easer­ ance of Mr. Buchanan from the mission as a result of the clecti^Bn Monday. Hh leadership year had been one that to progressive) business commission. Mr. Shelton spoke of the leader-’ ership of Mr. Buchans n and said that there had been more coopera­ tion shown between the commission and the council during the year than there had been for some time and the promise that had been obtained through the commission's efforts to reduce the insurance rate by the underwrite™ had been a major item for the town’s interest. Mr. Buchanan in reply thanked both members for their kind words and stated that any advancement that had been made during 1933 had been because of the co-operative ef­ forts of the entire commission.

VEALE PublisherPhone*—Tribune Offlea 18Residence 442 A THURSDAY, DEC. 14±h, 1933 Tax Arrears of Ontario Municipalities Reach Disquieting Proportions The most disquieting feature in the municipal field all over Canada is the phenomenal increase In tax arrears according to a report issued by the Ontario Committee on Econ­ omy in Public Finance recently in session in Ikmonto. Assuming that the tax collection administration has been efficient the Committee deduces that theee mounting tax arrears can only mean inability of the people to pay, and either that municipalities have not reduced their expenditures, or have reduced them insufficiently, while the revenue of the citizens, out of which taxation is paid, has shrunk continuously for some years. The other outstanding featlire of the municipal field is the increase in unemployment relief expenditures which, in some municipality the Committee finds, has been accompan- > ied Iry the disturbing factor -of the issue of debentures to meet such ex­ penditures in whole or In part. Considering these matters to be of such paramount importance that they should have the immediate attention of committees in all municipalities throughout Ontario under the auspic­ es of the Boards of Trade and Cham­ bers of Commerce or working in close co-operation with them, the Committee unanimously and most strongly recommended that such local committees should make studies showing the expenditure, taxation, tax collections, and tax arrears for each year since 1927. Studies based on these figures would, it is believed, bring out the facts and could be made the bases for representations to local administrations to reduce expendi­ tures and taxation sufficiently to halt the increase in tax arrears—demands for real reductions, not reductions effected by borrowing money for pur­ poses which will leave no tangible nseeta behind. In addition, the Com­ mittee takes the view that in these times municipalities should limit their current appropriations to the cash revenue available. The Ontario Committee further recommends that local committees establish co-operative relations with all local spending bodies to the end that programmes of economy may be »et up and carried out, and further, that public opinion be educated to support such spending bodies in any economy .programmes that may be adopted. ‘ The Ontario Committee is in full, accord with the policy of providing work in place of direct relief whom­ ever possible, but cmphasiuaa Ufa . ^npcefcity fpT the greatest care, tutfifei exercised in tho selection of iirtirite for relief purposes.

Farewell To Youth When the dust settled over the disasters of 1914-1918 and the pre­ datory conflicts of 1918-1920, youth came into it« own. For a while thie air was vibrant with attacks on the “wicked old men” who had begun the war and wrecked the peace. Power in the future was to pass to youth; tho word was given to youth and youth grabbed at it Perhaps the'emphasis which psychology had been throwing upon the importance of childhood was partly responsible; perhaps the disillusion of the mature with their own maturity was partly responsible; certainly the futile tragedy of the war called upon the next generation for action, and by 1920 youth had the attention of a world audience as perhaps never be­ fore in history. In America the strongholds of li­ terature capitulated. Periodicals in which no one under thirty had ever arrived except by accident sought contributions from undergraduates upon the state of youthful complex­ es. Publishing houses where the doorman had handled youthful liter­ ary aspirants now specialized in books by unknown authors, whose first claim upon attention WBS that they were just out of their teens. Scott Fitzgerald wrote “This Side of Paradise.'1 Abroad, the "youth movement” flourished, the avowed intentions of which were to further international friendships and create a world sym­ pathy among a new generation that did not propose to be ruined by the muddled prejudices and greeds of the world that had made the war. Life was to be healthier, more liberal, less predatory, and suffused with the hope, the friendliness, and the hearty energy of youth. Since the war had failed to emd war, youth would do it. Youth of the Balkans fraternized with youth of Germany. Youth from America visited all over EU Q 4' Youth of England preached tic internationalism throughaat^^bfe world except in Russia, •w energy of youth hid canalized for a great experiment, which was friendly, only ta yas dtr- iNow, in.l033,£w)wn international relations are probably worse than at any period i neas better to thePHmnh I9i wbcn frfendli- again and regulating of a of personal INVESTMENTSshould due coi princini profitfo not be made without t/fderation.

The result of such a survey is dis­ illusion. In American literature, the youngsters who were acclaimed be­ cause they were young and because youth alone knew what was what, are middle-aged and second-rate or sunk altogether. William Faulkner, who was preternaturally old when he was young. Is still among the prom­ ising. So is Hemingway, who still writes like a youth, with the youth's virtue of randor, youth's defect of monotony, and youth's vice of un- rastrainL We have had no successors in poetry to Vaehel Lindsay, Robert Frost, Carl Sandburg, Amy Lowell, Edna SL Vincent Millay, Elinor Wy­ lie, except Stephen Benet and Archi­ bald MacLeish.

In the United States it tottera. We may well ask: Can it bp saved in England, its ancient home? I believe it can. No radical dislike of democracy I exists here.Only a doubt of ita power to deliver the goods. Democ­ racy is mistrusted, where at all, for what it leaves undone, not for what it does amiss. Wheher it now surviwj or whether it dies depends here, os' elsewhere, on its answer to the world’s crucial problem—the problem of plenty and abundance. For a plenty, not a scarcity pro­ blem, confronts every land today, save Russia, or China, or India, where the industrial machine is not yet perfeetd. Why are statesmen so slow to grasp the nature of that plenty, to perceive the potency of the machine, .with water, coal and petrol power behind it? A single turbine inculpa­ tion has been built with an energy output of 9,000,000 men; and one electric lamp plant alone, ran by a handful of men, can supply every man, woman and .child in Manches- era Industrial needs and patently wrecking our industrial machine. A financial sjWttm that persuades us we are poor when we are really rich, which bids us tighten our belt when a full table confronts us is self- doomed. The industrial system groans and creaks. It cracks badly. It cannot de­ liver the goods. Men get angry. They blame democracy. Some turn to Com­ munism. Others, dreading that, and to ^void chaos, seize the reigns with Fascist hands. Democracy is indeed doomed if it offers no alternative to the financial status quo. Would we in England save Democ­ racy? Then we must secure certain things; and here, in brief, they are. 1.

It has opened areas o^life for literary exploitation in fiction and dranta to writers of an age best able to make them realistic, though not necessarily or probably best able to interpret them. But the reasoned verdict of 1933 must be that it was an interregnum. The elders carried on. The future does not belong to the generation that was given an unprecedented oppor­ tunity.

But which is preferable, the fossil convention of the old, their corruptions, their self-seeking, or the raw enthusiasms of youth, their lack of foresight, and their reliance upon noise and brute strength? The answer of course, is neither, and in­ deed, when the dust settles again after the present conflict, It will be evident that one of tho most danger­ ous results of the war and of the post-war dislocations was this split between generations which has for­ ced the world to take rides either with age or with youth. The old men began this era of discord. It seems that youth will be responsible for the next.

That Is not so today, when money pos­ sessed by individual members of in­ dustrial communities is proving to be more and more inadequate to pur­ chase the goods which they have pro­ duced in their corporate capacity at prices which must be charged to cover "costs.” Reasons arc suggested for this de­ ficiency of purchasing power. Let me hint at them. If, on the one hand, the money put into our pockets for the purchase of goods is confined to the moneys distributed by industry as wages, salaries and dividends— and we know that, with a few minoF exceptions, such is the case—and if, on the other hand, every penny must be recovered in ‘'prices”—and who will deny that this is the case? —then none of that outgoing stream of money must be diverted from the clear the world's stage of superfluous dictators. —By the Dean of Canterbury, in Reynolds's Illustrated News, (Lon­ don-) Rebekah Euchre Was Was Largely Attended usitted by Nan An- At the close of the program, dain­ ty refreshments were served by the hpsteseca for the evening.

Econom­ ists defend it and shift their ground with ludicrous rapidity. They suggest oher causes of collapse: free trade, tariffs, gold shortage, limitation of raw material, a demoralising dole. America is the answer to all this. Practically aeif-contained—a small ■world within its own ring-fence— yet confronted by collapse so coloreal that we look prosperous by her side. Desperate American communities plan barter schemes outside the ban­ king system, so utterly has money acrore the water broken down. At the moment, we indeed benefit from America's disaster; but let us not shout too eoon; prosperity of this kind ia precariously based. The money mechanism which de­ livers us our purchasing power Is at fault. Profeeaor Clay tells us re­ cently that-— “If w» leave money and credit out of account, there is obviously no theoretical impossibility of employ­ ing men, who nt present are being kept doing nothing, on plant which is also kept idle, at any useful work within tbetr capacity and for which materials are available.It i« the complication of a money economy which mokes it difficult.” Precisely. Could anything be more obvious? Why do we not see it? Why h*v» the economist* failed to tnalhei us see it? And why dose this obvious thing sound so commonplace now? "Could we but leave money out of •reotmi,” we need not fire wheat while men are hungry, nor fling or­ anges away while children thirst. Yet the pontiffs of fln*ncs bid us qniMly endure; u«re us that ths works to produce fresh goods; whether these goods are needed or not, they must be produced or the whole thing stalls. It is stalling on the world scale now. Large investments, therefore, mean large shortage of purchasing power. The Co-operative Movement, by putting money into the pockets of those who epend it directly upon consumable goods, helps immeasur­ ably. But there must rtill be some in­ vestment, or we stagnate. And in­ vestment derives at present from a stream which can’t afford IL We must set other streams a-fiowing. Thus we are led to the conclusion that money should not be distribut­ ed solely through the industrial ma- 1 chine. We should make use of our : social credit Wa should create our [ own money to balance our own needs of consump!.lon and investment We can afford it. We produce far more than we consume. The difference between production and consumption in u"iy year gives UB the measure of our real increase of wealth during that period. Statis­ tically, this figure can be known. Money should be ereated automatic­ ally to balance the increase. It should come upon the market in the form of a price reduction at the moment of purchase, price being reduced by the index of national increase, and the money being refunded to the manufacturer by treasury creations. The money being thus created only at the moment of sale, there is no inflation. The thing can be scientifically done. There is no intrinsic difficulty in Ite application. It is a principle for which the rapidly growing »octal credit movement stands, and the practical steps can be studied in their literature, and especially in Mr, Marshall Hatteraley’a book. “This Age of Plenty", now in its third edi­ tion, Worfd facts most obviously Ixar their contention out Dictators are attempting the hn- poMcihle and failing.

BOARD OF, EDUCATION(Continued from Page 1) handled. Mr. Handley mentioned that in the course of his inspections he had found that in many oases where children were out of school, Insuffic­ ient clothing was the reason. These cases had been promptly reported *ind action taken to supply the nec­ essary clothing to enable the pupils to continue at school. iMrl Handley also spoke apprecia­ tively of the fire gong system just installed in the Memorial School and of the splendid manner in which fire drills are conducted by the prin­ cipal, M. Walton. in reply to a question by Trustee Riley, Principal Bole stated that the high mark for attendance list year at the collegiate was 318, while the present enrollment was 289. By resolution the usual grants were made by the (board. When a motion was introduced to reappoint the attendance officer, Mr. Handley, at the same salary, Trustee Ruddick stated that Mr. Handley had been doing excellent work and had had increased expenses during the year, particularly in regards to trips by motor that had been necessary; In view of those circumstances, he thought Mr. Handley should receive an increase for 1934. Trustee Adams remarked that con­ ditions at the present time, while the board was very appreciative of the service© rendered by Mr. Handley, did not warrant an increase in sal­ ary. He suggested that Mr. Handley be re-appointed on the terms of the resolution and that a statement of his expenses be presented to the fin­ ance committee."The motion was ad­ opted. A motion carried that officers on duty on the night of the commence­ ment exercises be paid $2 each. The resignation of George Suther­ land was accepted and the secretary treasurer was instructed to write Mr. Sutherland expressing regret that he had severed his connection with the board. Trustee Keeler spoke in connection with the fire alarm system recently installed at Memorial School. The thanks of the board was con­ veyed by rcaolution to. Fred W. Keel­ er and Fred S.

Trustee Adams believed that areis- tance in connection with the buildng and upkeep of the rink might be ob­ tained from the council. It was moved by Trustee Adams and Ruddick "that « skating rink be built on Memorial school grounds and that the town council be approached to hav* someone drawing relief look after the upkeep of Mme, and If not favotably received by the council, the board to look after the matter.” The motion carried. Speaking briefly, Trustee Roddick expressed regret that Mr. Spaven was leaving th© board. A motion carried tint the board meet on Monday, Jan. 8, for th© pur­ pose of organizing for th© year 1934. At thia juncture Chairman David read the following report giving a resume of the year’s activities: CHAIRMAN 3 REVIEW OF THE INGERSOLL BOARD OF EDUCA­ TION FOR THE YEAR 1933 To the Members of the Ingersoll Board of Education: Gentlemen: Believing that a review of the work of thia Board each year should be placed on record in the minutes of the concluding saaaion, I sought to establish such a anatom last year, and at this time as we have reached the concluding Item of busin are on the agenda, I herewith beg leave, u your retiring chairman, to present to yon my review of the work of the Ingereoil Board of Education for the year 19M. As President of the Urban Section of th0 Ontario School Trustees' and Rabepayen* Association, I have been hnnght in clow contact wfth edoea- tloaal activities thraagfoat the Pro- has occupied the attention of the Board this year, we have been ever mindful that the efficiency of our schools must be kept at a high stand- ard, even though we reduced our ex­ penditures by over six thousand dol­ lars. All necessary repairs to the schools were looked after and the school buildings are today in the best shape in many years. Even with a considerable reduc­ tion in our estimates we have, through careful management, been able to accomplish aD we set out to do at the beginning of 1933 and we will finish the year with a substan­ tial balance on hand in the bank. Because of the necessity of four of our Public School teachers having to return to Normal School in order to obtain their permanent certificates, we had m on than l^a iuu»\ number of vacancies to fill.' Under the able leadership of Principal M. Walton, a high standard of efficiency is being maintained in our public schools. This was quite clearly indicated by the results at the High School En­ trance Examinations in June, and al­ so by the success of the pupils in the Junior rooms at their examinations. , Since September there has been a decrease in the enrollment at both our public schools and the Collegiate, which has for a time, at least, re­ lieved our worries about overcrowd­ ing. After negotiations with the mem­ bers of the Public and Secondary School staffs, an amicable salary ad­ justment was effected, which, while it greatly reduced the expenditures neceawry for salaries, it did not dis­ rupt the harmonious relations exist­ ing between the Board and its em­ ployees. At the Collegiate Institute the success in connection with Promo­ tion and Departmental standings and the winning of Scholarships in com­ petition with other Secondary Schooh of the Province on the part of the students has been evident this year. This indicated that goyd work is being done by the staff and students despite the crowded conditions which existed at the Collegiate. Mr. Mont­ gomery and Misses Kennedy and White, who were appointed in Sep­ tember, have materially strengthen­ ed the teaching staff and we may look forward to improved results at the examinations next June. Prin­ cipal Bole Is to be congratulated on the effort* he is constantly putting forth to raise the Collegiate to a higher state of efficiency. The beat reports ever received by i the Board in connection with our Household Science and Manual Training Classes were given this year by Inspector A. H. Leake and the fine type of work that is being done in three CIOMM was shown in particular needs. While «nne opposi­tion has been made to this class it cannot Jje denied that it will ultim­ ately prove of great value in train­ ing the msladjustable child to be­ come a self-respecting and self-sup­ porting citizen. » \ Because of the untiring efforts of our Public Health Nuree, Miss J. M. McNaughton, R.N., a high standard of health among the pupils of the schools has resulted, and Ingersoll is indeed (fortunate In having such an efficient public servant as Miss Mc­ Naughton. School Attendance Officer Hand- ley has discharged his duties ably and well To one -who has been closely In touch with the work nf our efficient secretary-treasurer, John J. McLeod, it is evident that he is the right man in the right place. His work is more strenuous than many would believe end he gives most unatintingly of his time in attending to the interests of the Board. To him I offer my eincere thanks for the great help ho has been to me during the past two years I have been privileged to serve as your Chairman and I trust he may be spared for many years to handle the affairs of the Board in (be splen- ,did way that he does. From a personal observance of all schools at various times throughout the year, It is with pleasure that I report them in excellent condition. This reflects much credit on the chairman and members of the prop­ erty committee concerned. I would like to take this oppor­ tunity of congratulating Trustee Preston, who, with myself, will re­ turn to the Board for another two years Mr. Preston’s re-election is an indication that the public of his Ward have endorsed the effort* of thia Board to give th© citizens effic­ ient and economical school adminis­ tration. I would also like to express regret that Trustees Spaven and Sutherland are severing their connec­ tion with the Board, and at the same time welcome E. J. Qhisholm, the newly elected member of Ward three, whose ability in other fields assures us that he will be of great assist­ ance to us in our work on behalf of the youth of Ingersoll. In conclusion, I wish to thank each member of the Board for his co­ operation and assistance during the year now drawing to a close. I also extend my thanks to the press for the fair manner in which they have reported our meetings and for the courtesies extended to me personally, and at the same time express my ap­ preciation of the cheerful and ready response of the caretakers of the schools to all demands made upon them. To you, one and all, I extend my sincere wishes for a very Merry Christmas and the hope that prosper­ ity shall be yours in abundance throughout 1934 and the years that will follow. J. FERRIS DAVID, Chairman. Ingersoll, Ontario, December 11, 1933. It was moved by Trustee Yule, seconded by Trustee Preston, that the report be received and incorpor­ ated in the minutes of the meeting, the former in reading the motion, spoke appreciatively of the services of the chairman. The resolution was adopted. Trustee Spaven referred to his tenure of service on the board and added that although leaving he would still continue to take an in­ terest in the work. Dr. C. A.

She could meet her note, and she itad not been forced to tell any of the fine Parker cattle except the calves. She had improved the ranch wonderfully and next year this improvement would manifest itself in real money. And with the money from next fall's sale she would buy more cattle, pure breds, the best in the world. She had set herself five year* to bring the earning After the cattle sale Ruth knew that Snavely had misinformed her about the yearly earning power of the ranch. As near a* *he could estimate, the income—even without the Parker cat­tle—was more than three times the amount be had mentioned.
