People were trampingl all over our premises and had fright-. ened every bird` away. All mudded in around the house were eight or ten. old.- hard tire, balloon-top cars, that didn't appear to have had a bath since the hailstorm of'191`2. When we got to the `door of our house we were greeted with ianother Hello, Jack!" Say..Jack, we came right in and made ourselves at home. Ja k, I want you to .m_eet.my people rom Srnithville. We've been all over- the place, `but they wanted to meet you. And we found from 20 to 30 people in -our house. Strangers we had never seenbefore. nor since. They had used our home -from bathr-oom to kitchen. Imagine, if you can; What the place was like. They had tramped all _ over the 25 vacresof sticky clay, and `all over our house. smoking and` spit- M ting. waiting for Jack to come home. III- __1.1 )_____I;. L .l.__l_'_.__[._ _-.1, _ n 1.1115.

He likes I?) go_ to church toworship. He likes to go to 'Sunday `School to teach others to worship. He. likes to spend the rest ofthe day in quiet, in think- ing, in Walking amongst his birds and his flowers. -But the road-hogs would not let him. They invaded his land. They frightened away his birds. They trampedpwith muddy feet through his house. "destroyed his garden, stole his flowers. his quiet and his day of rest and worship. Here is how he describes a little of it. After telling how as he came from. church one vandal shouted Hello Jack!" and waved at'_him a handful of flowers, his choice tulips all. stripped bare by an ignoramus to whom prize tulips meant no more than dung-hill toadstools, he goes on to tell` what it was" like when he arrived home from Sunday School:-i 'l`hn vvnn in fnnnI'\ nf Han Yunnan iuyou V Lth V QM is paauuxs LUIS way: '! ' _ ` . As might be expected in a big fellow like that. with a heart as big as hi. big body, Jack Mineris a religious man. He \belleves ln` God and goodnessvand `doing to the other fellow as he would A-that the otherfellow should do'to`him. . even if that other he onlylahonking Ganada goose. He believes inletting other people enjoyfall the good `things he enjoys, even if the things belong to him and not to theother fellow. So just as he has kept `open home and open `farm for the wild fowl which flew north and flew south. so he kept open house and open farm for the tourists and motoristsand gape-ists who run north andrun south. run east and run west. run in straight lines and run in 'circle_s, and the fater and farther they run the greater people they feel them- selves to be, Jackwelcomed them, too, Just as he welcomed the waterfowl. The geese came honking down from the sky, and the motorists came honking in from the roads. and big-hearted Jack Miner made them all welcome. "l1I._'.L 1.. ___ _ -, ..-. . . . u . - . - v . n o ouuuv ooooo as was VI vavvnulvn That is where he made_,a mistake.` He did not distinguish between the honk- ing sky-geese and the honking-road- hogs. The sky -geese appreciated his hospitality, loved him for his kindness. made their visit. andwithout doing him any harm went Joyously on their way. The road-hogs. honked all. over his farm. tramped`a}1~over his house.- wrecked his garden. stole his flowers and his_Sundays, and even cussed him for not` doing more to? them.

He will not let anyone in ex- cepting for two periods of twenty days each. one in April and one in-July. -And he. will prohibit anyone coming It is-not Jack Miner's fault. It is all because a certain. proportion of `the public are.human hogs who devour other people's owers. and destroy` `other ~pe_opl_e s gardens, and mess up other people's houses. and steal other people's Sabbaths and days of rest and worship. ` nuu__; 1 , `__|___ ___- _._._ ______.-II_.1 4.- `on Sunday under any circumstances. u `lb urn--rt That. is why we are compelled to have `prohibitory laws. If everybody was decent and thoughtful and con-- siderate or his brother man. and tried to do to his brother man as he would that his brother man should do to him. therewould` be no need of prohibitions. But because many have no considera- tion and nocaring for what injury they lnflictupon others. we are compelled to have prohibitory laws on speeding, on the rest day, on` boozing, on steal- ing. on assault, on killing.` and a thou- sand other things. If men will not re- spect the rights of their neighbors, the strong hand of public sentiment, crystallized into. prohibitory laws and deterrent punishments, must interfere and by "force compel them to that de- - cency of conduct and consideration which they ought to render willingly. It was not Jack Miner who put up the fence and barred the giatesso` long open wide to the public. It was the i road-hogs who abused his hospitality. ` A ineupg qrgrsssa council was held at Thornton on Monday.
